1
00:00:05,210 --> 00:00:02,510
how real are the flying saucers

2
00:00:09,470 --> 00:00:05,220
officially called unidentified flying

3
00:00:11,030 --> 00:00:09,480
objects on December 24 1959 the

4
00:00:13,850 --> 00:00:11,040
Inspector General of the Air Force

5
00:00:16,970 --> 00:00:13,860
notified all Air Base commanders that

6
00:00:18,830 --> 00:00:16,980
flying saucers are a serious problem

7
00:00:21,410 --> 00:00:18,840
the government of the United States has

8
00:00:24,470 --> 00:00:21,420
issued orders advising the military how

9
00:00:27,410 --> 00:00:24,480
to recognize the UFOs how to report them

10
00:00:30,109 --> 00:00:27,420
and how to handle fragments of them

11
00:00:32,870 --> 00:00:30,119
are the flying saucers really solid

12
00:00:34,850 --> 00:00:32,880
objects the Canadian government says it

13
00:00:37,670 --> 00:00:34,860
has borrowed pieces of flying saucers

14
00:00:40,069 --> 00:00:37,680
from the U.S Air Force the government of

15
00:00:42,470 --> 00:00:40,079
Brazil collected several ounces of tin

16
00:00:43,910 --> 00:00:42,480
which dripped from a UFO onto the city

17
00:00:46,569 --> 00:00:43,920
of Campinas

18
00:00:50,209 --> 00:00:46,579
the Norwegian government reported in

19
00:00:53,990 --> 00:00:50,219
1952 that it had located and recovered

20
00:00:57,650 --> 00:00:54,000
the outer shell of a UFO which it said

21
00:01:00,049 --> 00:00:57,660
was certainly not made on this Earth

22
00:01:02,389 --> 00:01:00,059
slowly but surely the irrefutable facts

23
00:01:05,030 --> 00:01:02,399
about UFOs have filtered through the

24
00:01:07,910 --> 00:01:05,040
veil of censorship in this and other

25
00:01:10,010 --> 00:01:07,920
countries slowly but surely the nature

26
00:01:13,490 --> 00:01:10,020
and extent of this remarkable phenomenon

27
00:01:15,590 --> 00:01:13,500
has become public knowledge by patiently

28
00:01:18,469 --> 00:01:15,600
piecing together these bits of evidence

29
00:01:20,330 --> 00:01:18,479
as they become available by carefully

30
00:01:22,550 --> 00:01:20,340
weighing the guarded statements of

31
00:01:25,010 --> 00:01:22,560
scientists and Military agencies

32
00:01:27,950 --> 00:01:25,020
involved in the study of unidentified

33
00:01:30,770 --> 00:01:27,960
flying objects we shall see that they

34
00:01:33,770 --> 00:01:30,780
are indeed serious business

35
00:01:36,050 --> 00:01:33,780
what should we do about them what can we

36
00:01:38,510 --> 00:01:36,060
do about them let us consider the case

37
00:01:40,910 --> 00:01:38,520
of the Argentine Naval transport the

38
00:01:43,010 --> 00:01:40,920
Punta Medanos which was making its way

39
00:01:47,149 --> 00:01:43,020
across the South Atlantic near the

40
00:01:49,730 --> 00:01:47,159
Falkland Islands in September of 1963.

41
00:01:51,530 --> 00:01:49,740
an enormous craft of unknown type and

42
00:01:54,170 --> 00:01:51,540
origin approached the naval transport

43
00:01:56,210 --> 00:01:54,180
from a Stern the officers of the

44
00:01:59,929 --> 00:01:56,220
transport estimated that the object was

45
00:02:02,929 --> 00:01:59,939
about 800 feet in diameter it was gray

46
00:02:05,450 --> 00:02:02,939
in color like dull aluminum and in shape

47
00:02:08,510 --> 00:02:05,460
it resembled two huge soup bowls placed

48
00:02:11,630 --> 00:02:08,520
together rim to rim as the strange craft

49
00:02:14,030 --> 00:02:11,640
approached slowly and silently and about

50
00:02:16,729 --> 00:02:14,040
a hundred feet above the sea the Punta

51
00:02:18,710 --> 00:02:16,739
madanos Compass gyrated wildly the

52
00:02:20,990 --> 00:02:18,720
Lights Went Out the intercommunication

53
00:02:23,270 --> 00:02:21,000
system went dead the radar and radio

54
00:02:24,890 --> 00:02:23,280
ceased to function the ship was

55
00:02:27,050 --> 00:02:24,900
virtually helpless

56
00:02:29,270 --> 00:02:27,060
for 20 minutes this state of affairs

57
00:02:31,369 --> 00:02:29,280
continued and then the strange aerial

58
00:02:34,369 --> 00:02:31,379
craft rose ponderously into the heavens

59
00:02:35,750 --> 00:02:34,379
and vanished as mysteriously as it had

60
00:02:38,210 --> 00:02:35,760
come

61
00:02:40,369 --> 00:02:38,220
this is not an unusual case Let It Be

62
00:02:43,729 --> 00:02:40,379
noted the secretary of the Argentine

63
00:02:47,390 --> 00:02:43,739
Navy says this was but one of 13 such

64
00:02:49,670 --> 00:02:47,400
cases in which giant UFOs had interfered

65
00:02:54,830 --> 00:02:49,680
with the operation of Argentine Naval

66
00:02:59,710 --> 00:02:57,650
hostility in their actions but there was

67
00:03:02,390 --> 00:02:59,720
unquestionably a powerful

68
00:03:05,990 --> 00:03:02,400
electromagnetic field which overwhelmed

69
00:03:08,570 --> 00:03:06,000
man-made gear while the UFOs were near

70
00:03:10,850 --> 00:03:08,580
the captain of the Punta madanos found

71
00:03:13,309 --> 00:03:10,860
that he could do nothing while his

72
00:03:16,190 --> 00:03:13,319
vessel was within the field of the giant

73
00:03:18,770 --> 00:03:16,200
UFO it was an experience that has been

74
00:03:20,809 --> 00:03:18,780
shared by many persons in the air on the

75
00:03:23,509 --> 00:03:20,819
ground and at sea

76
00:03:26,210 --> 00:03:23,519
the captain of the Punta madanos was as

77
00:03:28,670 --> 00:03:26,220
helpless as for instance our own

78
00:03:30,649 --> 00:03:28,680
astronaut major Gordon Cooper as major

79
00:03:33,830 --> 00:03:30,659
Cooper was making his final orbit of the

80
00:03:36,949 --> 00:03:33,840
Earth in May of 1963 he was approaching

81
00:03:38,750 --> 00:03:36,959
Perth Australia at night suddenly major

82
00:03:41,630 --> 00:03:38,760
Cooper radioed down to the tracking

83
00:03:44,509 --> 00:03:41,640
station that he was being approached by

84
00:03:47,750 --> 00:03:44,519
a greenish glowing disc with a faint red

85
00:03:51,190 --> 00:03:47,760
glow on one side it was traveling east

86
00:03:53,630 --> 00:03:51,200
to west which no man-made satellite does

87
00:03:55,970 --> 00:03:53,640
200 persons at the tracking station

88
00:03:58,430 --> 00:03:55,980
watched the object on the gear there

89
00:04:00,229 --> 00:03:58,440
they saw it approach Cooper then it

90
00:04:03,229 --> 00:04:00,239
veered away from him and sped on out

91
00:04:06,289 --> 00:04:03,239
into space it was only the first of many

92
00:04:08,869 --> 00:04:06,299
such cases every American astronaut

93
00:04:11,330 --> 00:04:08,879
since Gordon Cooper has also been

94
00:04:14,270 --> 00:04:11,340
approached by unidentified flying

95
00:04:17,150 --> 00:04:14,280
objects and each time the UFOs come

96
00:04:20,990 --> 00:04:17,160
closer to the astronauts and each time

97
00:04:23,150 --> 00:04:21,000
they remain a little longer in 1965

98
00:04:25,490 --> 00:04:23,160
major Edward McDevitt photographed one

99
00:04:27,590 --> 00:04:25,500
of these objects near the capsule in

100
00:04:30,230 --> 00:04:27,600
which he was orbiting the Earth over the

101
00:04:32,150 --> 00:04:30,240
Pacific Ocean and the photograph as

102
00:04:34,909 --> 00:04:32,160
released by The National Aeronautics and

103
00:04:37,730 --> 00:04:34,919
Space Administration clearly shows a

104
00:04:41,270 --> 00:04:37,740
bright egg-shaped thing which leaves a

105
00:04:43,370 --> 00:04:41,280
visible trail from its propulsion system

106
00:04:46,370 --> 00:04:43,380
the astronauts have all been approached

107
00:04:48,710 --> 00:04:46,380
by UFOs one of our surveyor shots to the

108
00:04:51,350 --> 00:04:48,720
moon was followed by UFOs according to

109
00:04:53,350 --> 00:04:51,360
NASA these things have caused power

110
00:04:55,310 --> 00:04:53,360
blackouts by official admission

111
00:04:57,590 --> 00:04:55,320
individuals have been burned by

112
00:05:00,469 --> 00:04:57,600
radiation when they got too close to

113
00:05:02,689 --> 00:05:00,479
UFOs and mid-air collisions with Planes

114
00:05:05,689 --> 00:05:02,699
full of passengers and near collisions

115
00:05:08,210 --> 00:05:05,699
as well can also be found in the reports

116
00:05:11,090 --> 00:05:08,220
around the world these incidents are but

117
00:05:13,490 --> 00:05:11,100
a small part of the worldwide story of

118
00:05:16,550 --> 00:05:13,500
what we officially call unidentified

119
00:05:18,890 --> 00:05:16,560
flying objects in their early form they

120
00:05:21,890 --> 00:05:18,900
were called flying saucers which they

121
00:05:23,930 --> 00:05:21,900
did resemble in flight but as the old

122
00:05:26,330 --> 00:05:23,940
saucer or disc shaped types were

123
00:05:29,090 --> 00:05:26,340
gradually replaced by more sophisticated

124
00:05:31,610 --> 00:05:29,100
models the term unidentified flying

125
00:05:34,909 --> 00:05:31,620
object was officially adopted it could

126
00:05:37,430 --> 00:05:34,919
and did include all types of craft and

127
00:05:40,670 --> 00:05:37,440
objects and the objects themselves did

128
00:05:42,730 --> 00:05:40,680
and still do constitute a major problem

129
00:05:45,529 --> 00:05:42,740
for the governor of the United States

130
00:05:48,409 --> 00:05:45,539
and of many other nations around the

131
00:05:54,770 --> 00:05:48,419
world including Russia which was first

132
00:06:02,210 --> 00:05:58,850
in May of 1946 residents of Northwestern

133
00:06:04,370 --> 00:06:02,220
Russia Norway Sweden Finland and Denmark

134
00:06:06,890 --> 00:06:04,380
were startled by a race of

135
00:06:09,409 --> 00:06:06,900
unconventional objects which darted

136
00:06:11,390 --> 00:06:09,419
about in the skies at first these things

137
00:06:14,150 --> 00:06:11,400
were referred to in the news dispatches

138
00:06:16,310 --> 00:06:14,160
as ghost Rockets but it soon became

139
00:06:19,310 --> 00:06:16,320
evident that they were certainly not

140
00:06:22,070 --> 00:06:19,320
Rockets they changed Direction they were

141
00:06:24,590 --> 00:06:22,080
seen to hover they were silent and they

142
00:06:26,809 --> 00:06:24,600
left no rocket Trail and when the Jets

143
00:06:29,570 --> 00:06:26,819
were set up after them the thing simply

144
00:06:31,730 --> 00:06:29,580
zipped away at Fantastic speed and left

145
00:06:36,350 --> 00:06:31,740
the Jets far behind

146
00:06:39,770 --> 00:06:36,360
that was in May of 1946. it was just one

147
00:06:41,390 --> 00:06:39,780
year after man had exploded his first

148
00:06:43,550 --> 00:06:41,400
atomic device

149
00:06:45,950 --> 00:06:43,560
was there any relationship between those

150
00:06:48,890 --> 00:06:45,960
two historic events or was it pure

151
00:06:50,629 --> 00:06:48,900
coincidence did the Flesh and the

152
00:06:53,029 --> 00:06:50,639
powerful radiation of those atomic

153
00:06:56,749 --> 00:06:53,039
explosions attract the attention of

154
00:07:01,670 --> 00:06:56,759
something or somebody out there in space

155
00:07:03,830 --> 00:07:01,680
if so who or what and from where

156
00:07:05,870 --> 00:07:03,840
scientists and military men were still

157
00:07:08,990 --> 00:07:05,880
pondering those questions in the late

158
00:07:10,430 --> 00:07:09,000
summer of 1946 when the weird objects

159
00:07:14,390 --> 00:07:10,440
vanished as suddenly as they had

160
00:07:15,950 --> 00:07:14,400
appeared in June of 1947 they were back

161
00:07:17,510 --> 00:07:15,960
this time they were over the

162
00:07:19,790 --> 00:07:17,520
Northwestern part of the continental

163
00:07:22,129 --> 00:07:19,800
United States first there was only a

164
00:07:24,890 --> 00:07:22,139
handful of them but their numbers grew

165
00:07:27,050 --> 00:07:24,900
rapidly and their activities expanded a

166
00:07:28,550 --> 00:07:27,060
study of their actions led to the

167
00:07:31,249 --> 00:07:28,560
conclusion that they were definitely

168
00:07:34,309 --> 00:07:31,259
interested in the capabilities of our

169
00:07:36,350 --> 00:07:34,319
various Vehicles they paced our planes

170
00:07:39,469 --> 00:07:36,360
and our trains and our Automobiles and

171
00:07:40,969 --> 00:07:39,479
our ships and our submarines one of them

172
00:07:43,010 --> 00:07:40,979
appears to have been involved in a

173
00:07:46,070 --> 00:07:43,020
bizarre incident which is a matter of

174
00:07:49,249 --> 00:07:46,080
record with the United States Navy this

175
00:07:51,589 --> 00:07:49,259
occurred in the summer of 1947 when the

176
00:07:52,730 --> 00:07:51,599
battleship New York was on patrol in the

177
00:07:54,890 --> 00:07:52,740
North Pacific

178
00:07:56,469 --> 00:07:54,900
the gear picked up an object which

179
00:07:59,629 --> 00:07:56,479
seemed to be following the battleship

180
00:08:01,370 --> 00:07:59,639
presently as the skies cleared the

181
00:08:03,409 --> 00:08:01,380
object could be seen with a naked eye

182
00:08:06,290 --> 00:08:03,419
and could be examined through binoculars

183
00:08:09,170 --> 00:08:06,300
it was some kind of faintly glowing disc

184
00:08:11,990 --> 00:08:09,180
or spherical thing moving in the same

185
00:08:14,450 --> 00:08:12,000
direction and at about the same speed as

186
00:08:16,730 --> 00:08:14,460
the battleship the radar had it for

187
00:08:19,430 --> 00:08:16,740
several hours as did the rangefinders

188
00:08:21,950 --> 00:08:19,440
for the guns at length when the thing

189
00:08:24,050 --> 00:08:21,960
could still be seen the next morning the

190
00:08:26,450 --> 00:08:24,060
battleship opened fire first with the

191
00:08:28,309 --> 00:08:26,460
five-inch guns later with the big

192
00:08:30,950 --> 00:08:28,319
14-inch rifles

193
00:08:33,529 --> 00:08:30,960
when this cannon Aid was finished the

194
00:08:35,389 --> 00:08:33,539
object was gone there was no indication

195
00:08:37,670 --> 00:08:35,399
that it had been hit

196
00:08:39,949 --> 00:08:37,680
when the official report was made by the

197
00:08:42,709 --> 00:08:39,959
commander of the battleship New York the

198
00:08:44,510 --> 00:08:42,719
refutation was promptly issued that they

199
00:08:45,949 --> 00:08:44,520
had only been shooting at the planet

200
00:08:50,449 --> 00:08:45,959
Venus

201
00:08:52,970 --> 00:08:50,459
thus as far back as 1947 the official

202
00:08:56,150 --> 00:08:52,980
policy of issuing explanations which

203
00:08:58,550 --> 00:08:56,160
ignored the facts was in evidence for

204
00:09:00,710 --> 00:08:58,560
one thing the object which followed the

205
00:09:02,889 --> 00:09:00,720
battleship New York was in the wrong

206
00:09:05,870 --> 00:09:02,899
direction to have been the planet Venus

207
00:09:08,930 --> 00:09:05,880
it did not change position relative to

208
00:09:11,509 --> 00:09:08,940
either the ship or the Horizon as a

209
00:09:14,090 --> 00:09:11,519
planet would have done and perhaps most

210
00:09:16,790 --> 00:09:14,100
important and most devastating to the

211
00:09:18,889 --> 00:09:16,800
official explanation neither the radar

212
00:09:21,829 --> 00:09:18,899
nor the rangefinders on the battleship

213
00:09:24,590 --> 00:09:21,839
could possibly have picked up the planet

214
00:09:27,710 --> 00:09:24,600
Venus or any other planet

215
00:09:29,210 --> 00:09:27,720
if this was indeed the first case of

216
00:09:32,210 --> 00:09:29,220
deriding those who reported

217
00:09:35,210 --> 00:09:32,220
unconventional objects in the sky it was

218
00:09:37,370 --> 00:09:35,220
but the Forerunner of many similar cases

219
00:09:39,769 --> 00:09:37,380
and it was also the Forerunner of many

220
00:09:43,430 --> 00:09:39,779
cases in which human beings have tried

221
00:09:45,889 --> 00:09:43,440
to do violence to UFOs perhaps a common

222
00:09:47,090 --> 00:09:45,899
human reaction to something they do not

223
00:09:50,150 --> 00:09:47,100
understand

224
00:09:53,030 --> 00:09:50,160
many centuries ago when several great

225
00:09:54,889 --> 00:09:53,040
shining silvery discs dived out of the

226
00:09:57,050 --> 00:09:54,899
sky toward the troops of Alexander the

227
00:09:59,990 --> 00:09:57,060
Great as the troops were fording a river

228
00:10:01,730 --> 00:10:00,000
most of the soldiers fled the scene but

229
00:10:04,310 --> 00:10:01,740
some of the heartier men stood their

230
00:10:06,710 --> 00:10:04,320
ground and tried to hit the discs with

231
00:10:10,850 --> 00:10:06,720
their arrows and with stones from their

232
00:10:13,250 --> 00:10:10,860
slings in April of 1897 when a glowing

233
00:10:15,829 --> 00:10:13,260
red dirigible-shaped object indicated

234
00:10:17,930 --> 00:10:15,839
that it was about to touch down in a

235
00:10:21,290 --> 00:10:17,940
cattle lot on the farm of Alexander

236
00:10:24,050 --> 00:10:21,300
Hamilton near Leroy Kansas Hamilton and

237
00:10:26,570 --> 00:10:24,060
his teenage son and his Hired Man armed

238
00:10:28,910 --> 00:10:26,580
themselves with axes and rushed toward

239
00:10:31,310 --> 00:10:28,920
the craft it quickly Rose into the air

240
00:10:33,650 --> 00:10:31,320
Out Of Reach taking with it the Hideous

241
00:10:35,990 --> 00:10:33,660
creatures which the men reportedly saw

242
00:10:37,430 --> 00:10:36,000
in the brightly lighted cabin Beneath

243
00:10:39,530 --> 00:10:37,440
The Craft

244
00:10:41,090 --> 00:10:39,540
peasants who worked in a beat field in

245
00:10:44,150 --> 00:10:41,100
Northern Italy reported to the police

246
00:10:46,730 --> 00:10:44,160
that when a disc shaped UFO hovered over

247
00:10:50,630 --> 00:10:46,740
them at very low altitude shortly before

248
00:10:53,389 --> 00:10:50,640
dark one evening in 1954 they pelted it

249
00:10:55,730 --> 00:10:53,399
with clods and stones and one man struck

250
00:10:59,509 --> 00:10:55,740
at a ringing blow with his shovel

251
00:11:01,250 --> 00:10:59,519
on the night of April 18 1962 a glowing

252
00:11:03,949 --> 00:11:01,260
red object was cited by a ground

253
00:11:05,930 --> 00:11:03,959
Observer group at Oneida New York they

254
00:11:07,670 --> 00:11:05,940
immediately notified the military at a

255
00:11:10,850 --> 00:11:07,680
nearby air base and the thing was picked

256
00:11:13,130 --> 00:11:10,860
up on radar it was tracked by radar as

257
00:11:15,410 --> 00:11:13,140
it moved Westward across the country to

258
00:11:17,509 --> 00:11:15,420
a point near Gridley Kansas then it

259
00:11:20,269 --> 00:11:17,519
changed course and descended until it

260
00:11:22,130 --> 00:11:20,279
was below the range of the radar a few

261
00:11:24,410 --> 00:11:22,140
minutes later an unidentified flying

262
00:11:27,470 --> 00:11:24,420
object landed near an electric power

263
00:11:29,329 --> 00:11:27,480
substation at Eureka Utah while the

264
00:11:31,490 --> 00:11:29,339
object was close to the station the

265
00:11:33,949 --> 00:11:31,500
station could not function the military

266
00:11:36,350 --> 00:11:33,959
went into action promptly and scrambled

267
00:11:38,810 --> 00:11:36,360
two flights of armed jet interceptors

268
00:11:41,690 --> 00:11:38,820
one from Phoenix Arizona the other from

269
00:11:43,910 --> 00:11:41,700
Reno Nevada the object remained on the

270
00:11:46,069 --> 00:11:43,920
ground near the power substation for 42

271
00:11:48,769 --> 00:11:46,079
minutes according to military spokesman

272
00:11:50,870 --> 00:11:48,779
as the Jets approached the object took

273
00:11:53,449 --> 00:11:50,880
flight and the electric power again

274
00:11:56,090 --> 00:11:53,459
flowed through that substation pursued

275
00:11:58,310 --> 00:11:56,100
by armed Jets the object streaked across

276
00:12:01,009 --> 00:11:58,320
Southwestern Nevada and it exploded in

277
00:12:03,530 --> 00:12:01,019
Flight about 70 miles south of Reno over

278
00:12:05,990 --> 00:12:03,540
the Mesquite range the brilliant flesh

279
00:12:08,090 --> 00:12:06,000
lighted the City of Reno like a giant

280
00:12:10,130 --> 00:12:08,100
photographer's flash bulb according to

281
00:12:12,650 --> 00:12:10,140
the witnesses the military sources

282
00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:12,660
admitted that the object had exploded

283
00:12:17,269 --> 00:12:14,880
but they refused to say whether it was

284
00:12:18,290 --> 00:12:17,279
the result of action by the pursuing

285
00:12:20,329 --> 00:12:18,300
Jets

286
00:12:22,790 --> 00:12:20,339
an interesting case is one which

287
00:12:25,310 --> 00:12:22,800
occurred one evening in October of 1954

288
00:12:28,250 --> 00:12:25,320
near Milan Italy when a crowd gathered

289
00:12:30,110 --> 00:12:28,260
to watch a dimly glowing UFO which had

290
00:12:31,009 --> 00:12:30,120
settled down in an abandoned Sports

291
00:12:33,050 --> 00:12:31,019
field

292
00:12:35,690 --> 00:12:33,060
the witnesses later told authorities

293
00:12:38,389 --> 00:12:35,700
that they had stopped a passing garbage

294
00:12:41,030 --> 00:12:38,399
truck and had armed themselves with part

295
00:12:43,490 --> 00:12:41,040
of its spoiled fruit which they threw at

296
00:12:46,129 --> 00:12:43,500
the craft and its occupants scoring

297
00:12:47,509 --> 00:12:46,139
several hits they said before it Rose

298
00:12:50,090 --> 00:12:47,519
and fled

299
00:12:53,329 --> 00:12:50,100
if this was indeed an extraterrestrial

300
00:12:55,850 --> 00:12:53,339
spacecraft with living occupants it must

301
00:12:58,610 --> 00:12:55,860
have been very disconcerting for them to

302
00:13:04,910 --> 00:12:58,620
cross millions of miles of space only to

303
00:13:09,410 --> 00:13:07,370
the dramatic Advent of such fascinating

304
00:13:12,050 --> 00:13:09,420
objects as those which were first called

305
00:13:14,329 --> 00:13:12,060
flying saucers attracted the inevitable

306
00:13:16,190 --> 00:13:14,339
attention of those individuals who let

307
00:13:17,690 --> 00:13:16,200
their imaginations run away with their

308
00:13:20,030 --> 00:13:17,700
veracity

309
00:13:22,370 --> 00:13:20,040
by 1950 some of these characters were

310
00:13:24,829 --> 00:13:22,380
beginning to spin their stories of

311
00:13:27,290 --> 00:13:24,839
fantastic conversations with alleged

312
00:13:29,750 --> 00:13:27,300
space people some of them expanded the

313
00:13:32,870 --> 00:13:29,760
stories to include alleged rides in the

314
00:13:35,569 --> 00:13:32,880
UFOs others published books replete with

315
00:13:39,170 --> 00:13:35,579
photographs of what they blandly called

316
00:13:40,910 --> 00:13:39,180
spacecraft motherships and all because

317
00:13:43,370 --> 00:13:40,920
they all claimed to have made contact

318
00:13:45,050 --> 00:13:43,380
with the operators of the UFOs the

319
00:13:47,329 --> 00:13:45,060
promoters of these various stories are

320
00:13:49,370 --> 00:13:47,339
known as contactees

321
00:13:51,829 --> 00:13:49,380
one of the most famous and the most

322
00:13:54,350 --> 00:13:51,839
successful was a fellow who had very

323
00:13:57,170 --> 00:13:54,360
limited schooling but unlimited

324
00:13:59,870 --> 00:13:57,180
imagination he concocted an engrossing

325
00:14:02,210 --> 00:13:59,880
tale of his alleged conversation with a

326
00:14:05,090 --> 00:14:02,220
gorgeous female space traveler from some

327
00:14:07,370 --> 00:14:05,100
distant planet he also concocted some

328
00:14:10,069 --> 00:14:07,380
pictures which the Air Force experts

329
00:14:12,710 --> 00:14:10,079
promptly identified as what they called

330
00:14:15,230 --> 00:14:12,720
simulated which indicated charitable

331
00:14:17,690 --> 00:14:15,240
restraint on their part to say the least

332
00:14:20,269 --> 00:14:17,700
This Charming fellow voluntarily listed

333
00:14:23,030 --> 00:14:20,279
his book with the Library of Congress as

334
00:14:25,490 --> 00:14:23,040
a piece of fiction but he sold the book

335
00:14:28,370 --> 00:14:25,500
to the general public as a factual

336
00:14:31,190 --> 00:14:28,380
account I was fascinated by one of his

337
00:14:33,650 --> 00:14:31,200
pictures which he identified as the

338
00:14:35,389 --> 00:14:33,660
craft in which he said he had made a

339
00:14:38,150 --> 00:14:35,399
trip to another planet

340
00:14:40,910 --> 00:14:38,160
it took me eight years to track down the

341
00:14:43,250 --> 00:14:40,920
object which he called a spaceship it

342
00:14:46,670 --> 00:14:43,260
was the top of a canister type vacuum

343
00:14:49,069 --> 00:14:46,680
cleaner made in 1937.

344
00:14:51,230 --> 00:14:49,079
somehow I doubt that very much space

345
00:14:52,670 --> 00:14:51,240
travel is actually being done in vacuum

346
00:14:55,250 --> 00:14:52,680
cleaner lids

347
00:14:58,310 --> 00:14:55,260
of course Mr Edwards was referring to

348
00:15:01,550 --> 00:14:58,320
George adamsky famous contactee from the

349
00:15:06,710 --> 00:15:03,949
every student of unidentified flying

350
00:15:08,449 --> 00:15:06,720
objects quickly discovers that this

351
00:15:11,870 --> 00:15:08,459
present development is what the latest

352
00:15:14,269 --> 00:15:11,880
phase of a very old phenomenon

353
00:15:17,030 --> 00:15:14,279
the Bible contains numerous references

354
00:15:19,810 --> 00:15:17,040
to strange objects variously described

355
00:15:22,910 --> 00:15:19,820
in terms of contemporary understanding

356
00:15:24,650 --> 00:15:22,920
ezekiel's wheels of fire were probably

357
00:15:27,829 --> 00:15:24,660
his description of what would have been

358
00:15:31,069 --> 00:15:27,839
great glowing discs for Wheels in his

359
00:15:33,650 --> 00:15:31,079
day were solid circles the account of

360
00:15:35,509 --> 00:15:33,660
Lot in the Bible tells how he saw

361
00:15:38,870 --> 00:15:35,519
strange beings who came down from the

362
00:15:41,750 --> 00:15:38,880
heavens and who even ate at his table

363
00:15:43,430 --> 00:15:41,760
the Bible contains many references but

364
00:15:45,829 --> 00:15:43,440
those it contains are but a small

365
00:15:49,250 --> 00:15:45,839
portion of the reports which Scholars

366
00:15:53,030 --> 00:15:49,260
have found in various ancient Chronicles

367
00:15:55,730 --> 00:15:53,040
one of these is very old indeed it is

368
00:15:57,530 --> 00:15:55,740
the books of desire which are the

369
00:15:59,930 --> 00:15:57,540
written version of the legends of the

370
00:16:01,970 --> 00:15:59,940
Hill People of Northern India for

371
00:16:03,590 --> 00:16:01,980
thousands of years these accounts were

372
00:16:06,350 --> 00:16:03,600
handed down from generation to

373
00:16:08,689 --> 00:16:06,360
Generation by word of mouth until at

374
00:16:11,569 --> 00:16:08,699
last they were preserved in writing in

375
00:16:14,030 --> 00:16:11,579
the form in which they exist today

376
00:16:15,949 --> 00:16:14,040
the account to which I refer is that

377
00:16:18,410 --> 00:16:15,959
which purports to describe a singular

378
00:16:20,930 --> 00:16:18,420
event in the history of those ancient

379
00:16:23,629 --> 00:16:20,940
people the time of the incident was

380
00:16:26,210 --> 00:16:23,639
about six thousand years before the

381
00:16:28,490 --> 00:16:26,220
Christian era yet some of its details

382
00:16:30,530 --> 00:16:28,500
have been known to modern science for

383
00:16:33,290 --> 00:16:30,540
less than 20 years

384
00:16:36,050 --> 00:16:33,300
the legend tells how strange glistening

385
00:16:39,230 --> 00:16:36,060
metallic vessels were seen in the skies

386
00:16:42,470 --> 00:16:39,240
of Northern India after circling the

387
00:16:44,449 --> 00:16:42,480
earth so we are told these craft landed

388
00:16:46,069 --> 00:16:44,459
and they all struck natives fell down

389
00:16:48,290 --> 00:16:46,079
before the men who got out of the

390
00:16:50,689 --> 00:16:48,300
vessels in a short time the visitors

391
00:16:52,610 --> 00:16:50,699
became the rulers of these people and

392
00:16:54,769 --> 00:16:52,620
they built two cities from which they

393
00:16:57,350 --> 00:16:54,779
ruled for many years the people

394
00:16:59,210 --> 00:16:57,360
prospered under their rulership and all

395
00:17:01,189 --> 00:16:59,220
went well until a grievous

396
00:17:03,769 --> 00:17:01,199
misunderstanding arose between the two

397
00:17:06,110 --> 00:17:03,779
groups of visitors then says the

398
00:17:08,150 --> 00:17:06,120
chronicle one leader took a group of his

399
00:17:10,669 --> 00:17:08,160
companions and they Rose into the sky in

400
00:17:12,350 --> 00:17:10,679
one of their huge vessels they flew to a

401
00:17:15,409 --> 00:17:12,360
point from which they could see the city

402
00:17:17,870 --> 00:17:15,419
in which their opponents dwelt then they

403
00:17:21,289 --> 00:17:17,880
released what the chronicle describes as

404
00:17:24,590 --> 00:17:21,299
a great shining Lance which rode on a

405
00:17:27,590 --> 00:17:24,600
beam of light this weapon exploded in or

406
00:17:30,230 --> 00:17:27,600
above the doomed City the flesh blinded

407
00:17:32,630 --> 00:17:30,240
all who gazed upon it and burned those

408
00:17:35,029 --> 00:17:32,640
in and about the city for a great

409
00:17:37,310 --> 00:17:35,039
distance the water of the river was

410
00:17:40,130 --> 00:17:37,320
poisoned by the explosion and the dust

411
00:17:42,950 --> 00:17:40,140
of the city was also poisoned so that

412
00:17:45,350 --> 00:17:42,960
none dared enter when the visitor who

413
00:17:47,930 --> 00:17:45,360
had launched this attack realized the

414
00:17:49,789 --> 00:17:47,940
enormity of the devastation he gathered

415
00:17:52,070 --> 00:17:49,799
about him the remnants of his own people

416
00:17:55,310 --> 00:17:52,080
put them into the remaining vessels and

417
00:17:57,830 --> 00:17:55,320
Rose into the sky never to return

418
00:18:00,289 --> 00:17:57,840
the devastated City eventually crumbled

419
00:18:03,409 --> 00:18:00,299
and vanished the other city was finally

420
00:18:06,169 --> 00:18:03,419
abandoned and fell into ruins

421
00:18:08,390 --> 00:18:06,179
this account sounds very much like an

422
00:18:10,850 --> 00:18:08,400
early attempt by space beings to

423
00:18:13,789 --> 00:18:10,860
establish a base or a foothold on Earth

424
00:18:14,690 --> 00:18:13,799
it notes that these creatures circled

425
00:18:16,909 --> 00:18:14,700
the Earth

426
00:18:19,850 --> 00:18:16,919
and that was at a time when humans were

427
00:18:22,669 --> 00:18:19,860
of the belief that the Earth was flat

428
00:18:25,370 --> 00:18:22,679
the description of a great shining Lance

429
00:18:27,350 --> 00:18:25,380
that rode on a beam of light Bears a

430
00:18:30,470 --> 00:18:27,360
striking resemblance to a modern rocket

431
00:18:32,210 --> 00:18:30,480
with its flaming exhaust described by

432
00:18:34,970 --> 00:18:32,220
those who had never seen such a thing

433
00:18:36,710 --> 00:18:34,980
before and the great flies that burned

434
00:18:39,529 --> 00:18:36,720
and blinded and poisoned the dust and

435
00:18:41,810 --> 00:18:39,539
the water bears an ominous similarity to

436
00:18:44,630 --> 00:18:41,820
a detailed description of a nuclear

437
00:18:46,909 --> 00:18:44,640
blast and its aftermath

438
00:18:49,310 --> 00:18:46,919
yet all this was said to have taken

439
00:18:51,350 --> 00:18:49,320
place many thousands of years ago and

440
00:18:54,770 --> 00:18:51,360
for men of that time to have imagined

441
00:18:56,990 --> 00:18:54,780
such things in such detail would be more

442
00:18:59,630 --> 00:18:57,000
fantastic than the story itself

443
00:19:03,289 --> 00:18:59,640
The Chronicles of ancient India in this

444
00:19:06,350 --> 00:19:03,299
case merely add mystery to an enigma if

445
00:19:08,750 --> 00:19:06,360
it did not occur as stated then how did

446
00:19:11,510 --> 00:19:08,760
they know about such things in such

447
00:19:14,450 --> 00:19:11,520
precise and accurate detail and if it

448
00:19:16,789 --> 00:19:14,460
did happen as described who were the

449
00:19:20,210 --> 00:19:16,799
strange visitors who sailed their metal

450
00:19:22,850 --> 00:19:20,220
ships in the skies of earth almost 8 000

451
00:19:26,630 --> 00:19:22,860
years before man learned to fly

452
00:19:28,490 --> 00:19:26,640
in or about the year 956 A.D the records

453
00:19:30,409 --> 00:19:28,500
of an ancient Church in Ireland tell of

454
00:19:33,110 --> 00:19:30,419
a weird incident which defies

455
00:19:34,310 --> 00:19:33,120
explanation other than some early type

456
00:19:36,470 --> 00:19:34,320
UFO

457
00:19:38,990 --> 00:19:36,480
it tells how the people attending church

458
00:19:42,350 --> 00:19:39,000
were alarmed by a loud crashing noise

459
00:19:43,909 --> 00:19:42,360
they rushed out to find a metal anchor

460
00:19:46,250 --> 00:19:43,919
hooked in the wood above the front door

461
00:19:47,990 --> 00:19:46,260
of the church the anchor was at the end

462
00:19:50,150 --> 00:19:48,000
of a cable which ran up to a strange

463
00:19:52,730 --> 00:19:50,160
craft hovering in the air a short

464
00:19:54,890 --> 00:19:52,740
distance above the church and a man-like

465
00:19:57,350 --> 00:19:54,900
creature who was apparently trying to

466
00:19:58,970 --> 00:19:57,360
dislodge the anchor was seized when he

467
00:20:01,370 --> 00:19:58,980
endeavored to climb back up the cable

468
00:20:03,650 --> 00:20:01,380
but the bishop who wrote the report for

469
00:20:05,930 --> 00:20:03,660
his superiors said that he made the

470
00:20:08,090 --> 00:20:05,940
parishioners turn the creature loose for

471
00:20:10,190 --> 00:20:08,100
fear they might harm him and that upon

472
00:20:12,710 --> 00:20:10,200
being freed the creature hastily climbed

473
00:20:15,409 --> 00:20:12,720
the cable which was then cut and the

474
00:20:17,930 --> 00:20:15,419
craft sped away in the skies the anchor

475
00:20:20,450 --> 00:20:17,940
says the old church record was kept in

476
00:20:22,370 --> 00:20:20,460
the church for many years as a souvenir

477
00:20:25,130 --> 00:20:22,380
of the incident

478
00:20:27,049 --> 00:20:25,140
in January of 1910 the city of

479
00:20:29,150 --> 00:20:27,059
Chattanooga Tennessee was surprised by

480
00:20:31,190 --> 00:20:29,160
the visit of a large dirigible shaped

481
00:20:33,049 --> 00:20:31,200
craft which cruised about over the city

482
00:20:35,990 --> 00:20:33,059
in broad daylight for about half an hour

483
00:20:37,789 --> 00:20:36,000
in full view of thousands of people many

484
00:20:40,130 --> 00:20:37,799
of whom were admittedly frightened by it

485
00:20:42,529 --> 00:20:40,140
in those days the only similar devices

486
00:20:45,110 --> 00:20:42,539
known to man were a few clumsy

487
00:20:47,630 --> 00:20:45,120
underpowered Zeppelins in Europe totally

488
00:20:49,669 --> 00:20:47,640
incapable of visiting this country next

489
00:20:51,710 --> 00:20:49,679
day the object was back over Chattanooga

490
00:20:53,930 --> 00:20:51,720
and then it Rose into the clouds and

491
00:20:56,690 --> 00:20:53,940
moved away toward the South another

492
00:21:03,710 --> 00:20:56,700
well-attested Enigma in the long long

493
00:21:08,390 --> 00:21:05,930
when you hear the statement that no

494
00:21:11,590 --> 00:21:08,400
professional astronomer has ever seen a

495
00:21:15,770 --> 00:21:11,600
flying saucer you are entitled to reply

496
00:21:18,650 --> 00:21:15,780
Malarkey for that's exactly what it is

497
00:21:22,070 --> 00:21:18,660
the first UFOs ever photographed were

498
00:21:24,950 --> 00:21:22,080
seen and filmed by professor bonella at

499
00:21:26,650 --> 00:21:24,960
the observatory at Zacatecas Mexico on

500
00:21:29,510 --> 00:21:26,660
August the 12th

501
00:21:31,730 --> 00:21:29,520
1883. he and his colleagues saw hundreds

502
00:21:34,310 --> 00:21:31,740
of spindle-shaped craft in formation

503
00:21:37,190 --> 00:21:34,320
passing between their telescope and the

504
00:21:39,350 --> 00:21:37,200
sun on that and the succeeding day

505
00:21:41,930 --> 00:21:39,360
more recently let us consider the case

506
00:21:45,289 --> 00:21:41,940
of Dr Clyde Tomball who is world famous

507
00:21:48,169 --> 00:21:45,299
as the discoverer of the planet Pluto in

508
00:21:49,909 --> 00:21:48,179
1949 Dr Tomball and several other

509
00:21:52,610 --> 00:21:49,919
Witnesses including members of his

510
00:21:55,370 --> 00:21:52,620
family watched a strange cigar-shaped

511
00:21:58,010 --> 00:21:55,380
craft with regularly spaced rectangular

512
00:22:00,590 --> 00:21:58,020
apertures along the sides similar in

513
00:22:02,810 --> 00:22:00,600
appearance to Windows as the craft moves

514
00:22:05,870 --> 00:22:02,820
silently about over the desert near

515
00:22:07,669 --> 00:22:05,880
tomball's Home in New Mexico the noted

516
00:22:09,710 --> 00:22:07,679
astronomer said in a written statement

517
00:22:12,950 --> 00:22:09,720
that he had the impression that the

518
00:22:14,210 --> 00:22:12,960
object was some form of extraterrestrial

519
00:22:16,789 --> 00:22:14,220
device

520
00:22:20,090 --> 00:22:16,799
Dr Seymour Hess of Lowell Observatory

521
00:22:22,130 --> 00:22:20,100
also saw a UFO and had the courage to

522
00:22:25,970 --> 00:22:22,140
report what he had seen it was on May

523
00:22:28,430 --> 00:22:25,980
the 20th 1950. Dr Hess described a shiny

524
00:22:31,130 --> 00:22:28,440
double convex disc which he had watched

525
00:22:33,710 --> 00:22:31,140
maneuvering about in the clear sky of

526
00:22:36,470 --> 00:22:33,720
the Southwest it was completely unlike

527
00:22:39,470 --> 00:22:36,480
any other object he had ever seen with

528
00:22:41,570 --> 00:22:39,480
or without the aid of a telescope

529
00:22:44,770 --> 00:22:41,580
one of the most famous astronomers of

530
00:22:47,090 --> 00:22:44,780
our time was the late Dr H Percy Wilkins

531
00:22:49,549 --> 00:22:47,100
famed among other things for his

532
00:22:51,890 --> 00:22:49,559
leadership of the British celinological

533
00:22:55,430 --> 00:22:51,900
society as a result of his lifelong

534
00:22:58,010 --> 00:22:55,440
study of the moon on June the 11th 1954

535
00:23:00,110 --> 00:22:58,020
Dr Wilkins was in this country on a

536
00:23:01,669 --> 00:23:00,120
speaking trip and he was flying in a

537
00:23:04,430 --> 00:23:01,679
conveyor from Charleston West Virginia

538
00:23:06,470 --> 00:23:04,440
to Atlanta Georgia the weather was good

539
00:23:09,289 --> 00:23:06,480
with scattered clouds and bright

540
00:23:11,570 --> 00:23:09,299
Sunshine When Dr Wilkins arrived at

541
00:23:13,549 --> 00:23:11,580
Atlanta he held a press conference at

542
00:23:16,070 --> 00:23:13,559
which he described an unusual experience

543
00:23:17,510 --> 00:23:16,080
which he had had during that flight he

544
00:23:19,190 --> 00:23:17,520
said that he had been looking out the

545
00:23:21,549 --> 00:23:19,200
window where he was seated near the rear

546
00:23:24,409 --> 00:23:21,559
of the plane when he noticed two large

547
00:23:26,330 --> 00:23:24,419
coppery-looking discs darting in and out

548
00:23:28,610 --> 00:23:26,340
of the clouds they were near enough that

549
00:23:30,350 --> 00:23:28,620
he could discern certain details which

550
00:23:33,590 --> 00:23:30,360
indicate that he was seeing the double

551
00:23:36,169 --> 00:23:33,600
convex type UFO which was just beginning

552
00:23:38,750 --> 00:23:36,179
to replace the earlier type disk or

553
00:23:40,490 --> 00:23:38,760
so-called Flying Saucer Dr Wilkins

554
00:23:42,830 --> 00:23:40,500
described what he had seen to the

555
00:23:45,710 --> 00:23:42,840
reporters in Atlanta and when asked if

556
00:23:49,310 --> 00:23:45,720
he had any idea what the objects were he

557
00:23:52,549 --> 00:23:49,320
replied and I quote him I certainly do I

558
00:23:56,149 --> 00:23:52,559
saw two flying saucers end quote

559
00:23:58,390 --> 00:23:56,159
Frank Halstead who was for 25 years the

560
00:24:02,090 --> 00:23:58,400
curator of the University of Minnesota

561
00:24:05,630 --> 00:24:02,100
Observatory at Duluth says that he has

562
00:24:09,409 --> 00:24:05,640
seen a total of three UFOs two of them

563
00:24:11,930 --> 00:24:09,419
in one day and almost at the same time

564
00:24:13,730 --> 00:24:11,940
no professional astronomer ever saw a

565
00:24:16,909 --> 00:24:13,740
flying saucer

566
00:24:19,909 --> 00:24:16,919
the record indicates otherwise

567
00:24:22,610 --> 00:24:19,919
the time one o'clock on the morning of

568
00:24:24,470 --> 00:24:22,620
September 4th 1965.

569
00:24:27,230 --> 00:24:24,480
two sheriff's deputies from the office

570
00:24:30,230 --> 00:24:27,240
at Angleton had stopped their car on the

571
00:24:32,210 --> 00:24:30,240
highway a few miles from Damon Texas

572
00:24:34,789 --> 00:24:32,220
their attention had been attracted by A

573
00:24:36,830 --> 00:24:34,799
peculiar purplish light which they had

574
00:24:39,169 --> 00:24:36,840
seen in the sky off to one side of the

575
00:24:41,390 --> 00:24:39,179
road they got out of their car to

576
00:24:43,430 --> 00:24:41,400
observe it better a moment later they

577
00:24:44,810 --> 00:24:43,440
got back into the car to get away from

578
00:24:46,669 --> 00:24:44,820
there quicker

579
00:24:48,470 --> 00:24:46,679
the purple light was some sort of

580
00:24:51,350 --> 00:24:48,480
brilliant Spotlight on the front of a

581
00:24:53,570 --> 00:24:51,360
strange football-shaped craft somewhere

582
00:24:55,669 --> 00:24:53,580
in excess of 90 feet long

583
00:24:57,950 --> 00:24:55,679
as the two officers stood there beside

584
00:24:59,810 --> 00:24:57,960
their car the object had turned toward

585
00:25:01,250 --> 00:24:59,820
them caught them in its light and then

586
00:25:03,289 --> 00:25:01,260
dived toward them

587
00:25:06,289 --> 00:25:03,299
the officers roared down the highway

588
00:25:08,510 --> 00:25:06,299
toward Damon and the object easily kept

589
00:25:10,190 --> 00:25:08,520
pace with them at times their speed

590
00:25:12,770 --> 00:25:10,200
exceeded a hundred miles an hour

591
00:25:15,289 --> 00:25:12,780
according to their report but the big

592
00:25:17,870 --> 00:25:15,299
craft continued to follow they finally

593
00:25:20,210 --> 00:25:17,880
lost it near Damon and then went back

594
00:25:21,950 --> 00:25:20,220
out to take another look at it and were

595
00:25:25,010 --> 00:25:21,960
again pursued

596
00:25:27,590 --> 00:25:25,020
this incident at Damon Texas occurred

597
00:25:30,110 --> 00:25:27,600
only a few minutes after police officers

598
00:25:32,390 --> 00:25:30,120
at Exeter New Hampshire had watched a

599
00:25:35,090 --> 00:25:32,400
similar craft carrying brilliant red

600
00:25:37,850 --> 00:25:35,100
lights it had terrified several people

601
00:25:40,850 --> 00:25:37,860
and the police who saw it admittedly

602
00:25:43,070 --> 00:25:40,860
felt squeamish about their experience

603
00:25:45,710 --> 00:25:43,080
the type of craft described in these

604
00:25:48,649 --> 00:25:45,720
incidents is one of about half a dozen

605
00:25:51,350 --> 00:25:48,659
frequently reported first the so-called

606
00:25:53,690 --> 00:25:51,360
saucers which appeared in 1946 over

607
00:25:56,590 --> 00:25:53,700
Northwestern Europe This was followed

608
00:26:00,169 --> 00:25:56,600
about 1953 by the double convex type

609
00:26:02,330 --> 00:26:00,179
resembling two soup bowls rim to rim and

610
00:26:03,529 --> 00:26:02,340
later the football shaped things in many

611
00:26:05,690 --> 00:26:03,539
sizes

612
00:26:08,510 --> 00:26:05,700
we must also include the occasional

613
00:26:10,610 --> 00:26:08,520
cigar-shaped devices and the giant

614
00:26:13,310 --> 00:26:10,620
spherical things with rims around their

615
00:26:15,230 --> 00:26:13,320
equators there are a few others of

616
00:26:16,130 --> 00:26:15,240
various shapes reported from time to

617
00:26:18,409 --> 00:26:16,140
time

618
00:26:20,810 --> 00:26:18,419
but these are the types most frequently

619
00:26:22,190 --> 00:26:20,820
seen and photographed by credible

620
00:26:25,669 --> 00:26:22,200
Witnesses

621
00:26:28,070 --> 00:26:25,679
as they vary in shape so do they vary in

622
00:26:30,590 --> 00:26:28,080
size presumably this is due to the

623
00:26:33,049 --> 00:26:30,600
difference in purpose just as our own

624
00:26:36,649 --> 00:26:33,059
satellites come in many shapes and sizes

625
00:26:38,750 --> 00:26:36,659
for different types of performance

626
00:26:41,330 --> 00:26:38,760
an Air Force Colonel flying over the

627
00:26:43,370 --> 00:26:41,340
Pacific during the Korean War reported

628
00:26:46,130 --> 00:26:43,380
that a shiny little disc not more than

629
00:26:48,590 --> 00:26:46,140
six or eight inches in diameter played

630
00:26:51,049 --> 00:26:48,600
around over the wing of his jet suddenly

631
00:26:53,210 --> 00:26:51,059
spurted ahead and made the same maneuver

632
00:26:55,370 --> 00:26:53,220
around the jet ahead of him then

633
00:26:58,130 --> 00:26:55,380
streaked away and vanished

634
00:27:00,830 --> 00:26:58,140
from that tiny six-inch device or object

635
00:27:03,890 --> 00:27:00,840
the UFOs have been reported up to around

636
00:27:06,409 --> 00:27:03,900
a thousand feet in diameter in such

637
00:27:09,409 --> 00:27:06,419
cases the big ones are always of the

638
00:27:11,810 --> 00:27:09,419
double convex type the pilot co-pilot

639
00:27:14,390 --> 00:27:11,820
and three military Aviation experts on a

640
00:27:17,750 --> 00:27:14,400
charter flight from Anchorage Alaska to

641
00:27:19,789 --> 00:27:17,760
Tokyo in the winter of 1964

642
00:27:22,730 --> 00:27:19,799
reported that they had been paced over

643
00:27:25,730 --> 00:27:22,740
the North Pacific by three double convex

644
00:27:26,930 --> 00:27:25,740
type craft about one thousand feet in

645
00:27:28,970 --> 00:27:26,940
diameter

646
00:27:31,250 --> 00:27:28,980
they could detect no visible indication

647
00:27:33,710 --> 00:27:31,260
of propulsion nor did they see any

648
00:27:36,110 --> 00:27:33,720
operators in the transparent domes on

649
00:27:38,570 --> 00:27:36,120
the top center of the objects but the

650
00:27:40,610 --> 00:27:38,580
UFOs easily eluded the plane's efforts

651
00:27:42,529 --> 00:27:40,620
to close with them and gave every

652
00:27:45,950 --> 00:27:42,539
indication of being highly maneuverable

653
00:27:48,590 --> 00:27:45,960
and under intelligent control when last

654
00:27:51,470 --> 00:27:48,600
seen the UFOs were going straight up at

655
00:27:53,870 --> 00:27:51,480
a speed estimated around 1300 miles per

656
00:27:56,570 --> 00:27:53,880
hour now since the Witnesses in this

657
00:27:59,269 --> 00:27:56,580
case were experts in both Aeronautics

658
00:28:01,190 --> 00:27:59,279
and rocketry their testimony carries

659
00:28:02,870 --> 00:28:01,200
unusual weight

660
00:28:04,669 --> 00:28:02,880
such remarkable performance

661
00:28:07,730 --> 00:28:04,679
characteristics as those we have just

662
00:28:10,669 --> 00:28:07,740
described implies a power source of

663
00:28:13,130 --> 00:28:10,679
tremendous potential the answer may be

664
00:28:16,010 --> 00:28:13,140
found in the statement of Dr Herman OBET

665
00:28:18,470 --> 00:28:16,020
the famed rocket scientist who led an

666
00:28:22,669 --> 00:28:18,480
investigation of UFOs for the West

667
00:28:25,130 --> 00:28:22,679
German government in June of 1954 Dr

668
00:28:27,830 --> 00:28:25,140
obeth told newsmen at Frankfurt Germany

669
00:28:30,769 --> 00:28:27,840
that he and his fellow scientists had

670
00:28:33,350 --> 00:28:30,779
concluded that the UFOs were powered by

671
00:28:35,470 --> 00:28:33,360
some method of converting gravity into

672
00:28:37,909 --> 00:28:35,480
usable energy

673
00:28:41,510 --> 00:28:37,919
theoretically such a process would give

674
00:28:44,330 --> 00:28:41,520
the UFOs or any other spacecraft an

675
00:28:46,669 --> 00:28:44,340
endless source of power since gravity is

676
00:28:48,049 --> 00:28:46,679
known to exist throughout the entire

677
00:28:51,049 --> 00:28:48,059
universe

678
00:28:54,169 --> 00:28:51,059
thus far man has not been able to

679
00:28:57,289 --> 00:28:54,179
determine precisely what it is or

680
00:29:00,529 --> 00:28:57,299
exactly how it works nor how to put it

681
00:29:03,230 --> 00:29:00,539
to work but we are not idle since the

682
00:29:05,810 --> 00:29:03,240
time of Dr obath's statement the United

683
00:29:08,149 --> 00:29:05,820
States has embarked on a costly and

684
00:29:11,029 --> 00:29:08,159
intensive program of gravitational

685
00:29:15,070 --> 00:29:11,039
research true magazine reported in

686
00:29:17,930 --> 00:29:15,080
January of 1960 that we had at that time

687
00:29:19,970 --> 00:29:17,940
46 separate gravitational research

688
00:29:22,850 --> 00:29:19,980
programs underway

689
00:29:25,130 --> 00:29:22,860
and it may well be that Dr obeth's

690
00:29:28,010 --> 00:29:25,140
assertion that men would be going to the

691
00:29:31,909 --> 00:29:28,020
Moon in electrically propelled craft by

692
00:29:35,269 --> 00:29:31,919
1970 will be fulfilled we have found

693
00:29:40,970 --> 00:29:35,279
that gravity can be used there Remains

694
00:29:47,570 --> 00:29:45,350
in 1964 our Ranger 7 sent back thousands

695
00:29:50,810 --> 00:29:47,580
of pictures before it crashed into the

696
00:29:53,149 --> 00:29:50,820
moon Ranger 8 did even better both in

697
00:29:55,430 --> 00:29:53,159
quantity and quality but very few

698
00:29:58,070 --> 00:29:55,440
pictures from that second group were

699
00:29:59,389 --> 00:29:58,080
ever exposed to public gays and those

700
00:30:01,549 --> 00:29:59,399
pictures should have been very

701
00:30:03,830 --> 00:30:01,559
interesting for they were centered on

702
00:30:06,409 --> 00:30:03,840
that area around the crater aristarchus

703
00:30:08,630 --> 00:30:06,419
where so many phenomena have been noted

704
00:30:10,250 --> 00:30:08,640
and where the phenomena are still being

705
00:30:12,830 --> 00:30:10,260
noted for that matter

706
00:30:15,169 --> 00:30:12,840
the story of man's interest in lunar

707
00:30:18,710 --> 00:30:15,179
phenomena was dramatically intensified

708
00:30:22,130 --> 00:30:18,720
by a series of events which may not have

709
00:30:24,470 --> 00:30:22,140
been related and then again perhaps they

710
00:30:27,409 --> 00:30:24,480
were here is that story

711
00:30:31,909 --> 00:30:27,419
Dr Ace of Hall discovered in one six day

712
00:30:34,850 --> 00:30:31,919
period in 1877 that the planet Mars had

713
00:30:38,269 --> 00:30:34,860
two moons where no moons had ever been

714
00:30:40,850 --> 00:30:38,279
seen before moreover the moons of Mars

715
00:30:42,950 --> 00:30:40,860
were brighter than the planet itself as

716
00:30:45,409 --> 00:30:42,960
though they were of different material

717
00:30:47,930 --> 00:30:45,419
and one of the moons revolves around the

718
00:30:51,230 --> 00:30:47,940
planet in an orbit unlike any other

719
00:30:53,690 --> 00:30:51,240
natural satellite if that's what it is

720
00:30:56,090 --> 00:30:53,700
two years after Dr Hall's historic

721
00:30:59,090 --> 00:30:56,100
discoveries the British Astronomical

722
00:31:01,970 --> 00:30:59,100
Society was deluged with reports of

723
00:31:04,549 --> 00:31:01,980
strange lights on the moon in the dark

724
00:31:06,830 --> 00:31:04,559
part of the lunar orb so many

725
00:31:09,769 --> 00:31:06,840
astronomers reported so many anomalies

726
00:31:12,350 --> 00:31:09,779
that the society began to wonder if

727
00:31:14,389 --> 00:31:12,360
there was somebody up there and if they

728
00:31:16,850 --> 00:31:14,399
were trying to make us aware of their

729
00:31:18,710 --> 00:31:16,860
presence by arranging lights in

730
00:31:21,110 --> 00:31:18,720
geometric patterns

731
00:31:23,930 --> 00:31:21,120
the society requested that its members

732
00:31:26,750 --> 00:31:23,940
chart and Report any and all such

733
00:31:29,389 --> 00:31:26,760
oddities on the moon in the hope that

734
00:31:30,710 --> 00:31:29,399
some sort of intelligible signals might

735
00:31:32,269 --> 00:31:30,720
be discovered

736
00:31:37,250 --> 00:31:32,279
well they got a lot more than they

737
00:31:39,590 --> 00:31:37,260
bargained for between 1879 and 1882 the

738
00:31:43,490 --> 00:31:39,600
Astronomical Society received more than

739
00:31:45,590 --> 00:31:43,500
2 000 reports of light patterns on the

740
00:31:47,630 --> 00:31:45,600
dark part of the Moon they received so

741
00:31:50,090 --> 00:31:47,640
many reports that they had to ask their

742
00:31:52,610 --> 00:31:50,100
members to refrain from making any

743
00:31:56,389 --> 00:31:52,620
additional reports the society was

744
00:32:00,169 --> 00:31:56,399
unable to cope with what it already had

745
00:32:02,029 --> 00:32:00,179
in the summer of 1965 Moon watching had

746
00:32:04,490 --> 00:32:02,039
become fashionable once more for

747
00:32:07,490 --> 00:32:04,500
professional astronomers they began to

748
00:32:10,250 --> 00:32:07,500
notice occasional flashes of intensely

749
00:32:12,110 --> 00:32:10,260
bright white light from the floor of the

750
00:32:14,090 --> 00:32:12,120
crater aristarchus

751
00:32:16,669 --> 00:32:14,100
several observatories were linked by

752
00:32:18,710 --> 00:32:16,679
shortwave radio stations so that the

753
00:32:21,049 --> 00:32:18,720
instant any one of them saw this curious

754
00:32:22,010 --> 00:32:21,059
light the other observatories were

755
00:32:25,789 --> 00:32:22,020
notified

756
00:32:28,850 --> 00:32:25,799
this project was called astronet and it

757
00:32:33,110 --> 00:32:28,860
recorded those slices many times in the

758
00:32:35,950 --> 00:32:33,120
year 1965 and as a result the number of

759
00:32:40,130 --> 00:32:35,960
observatories involved was increased in

760
00:32:42,409 --> 00:32:40,140
1966 and also the results

761
00:32:44,870 --> 00:32:42,419
still another Oddity known to exist on

762
00:32:47,870 --> 00:32:44,880
the moon is that of the objects called

763
00:32:50,750 --> 00:32:47,880
Moon domes these are circular white

764
00:32:53,110 --> 00:32:50,760
hemispherical spots which are at just

765
00:32:57,049 --> 00:32:53,120
about the limit of telescopic visibility

766
00:32:58,909 --> 00:32:57,059
they're probably 600 feet in diameter

767
00:33:02,330 --> 00:32:58,919
it was once thought that these things

768
00:33:05,870 --> 00:33:02,340
were Hills or perhaps tiny volcanic

769
00:33:08,149 --> 00:33:05,880
cones but subsequent study revealed that

770
00:33:10,669 --> 00:33:08,159
the mysterious domes sometimes vanished

771
00:33:11,690 --> 00:33:10,679
in one area and appeared later in

772
00:33:14,509 --> 00:33:11,700
another

773
00:33:16,730 --> 00:33:14,519
what they were and why they seemed to be

774
00:33:20,630 --> 00:33:16,740
hopscotching around on the Bleak lunar

775
00:33:22,850 --> 00:33:20,640
surface no man can say

776
00:33:25,070 --> 00:33:22,860
one of the most baffling lunar anomalies

777
00:33:28,009 --> 00:33:25,080
was the gigantic bridge-like structure

778
00:33:30,649 --> 00:33:28,019
first reported in the early 1950s by

779
00:33:33,529 --> 00:33:30,659
John O'Neill who described the thing as

780
00:33:36,289 --> 00:33:33,539
looking like an enormous Bridge with a

781
00:33:38,330 --> 00:33:36,299
span at least 12 miles long

782
00:33:40,549 --> 00:33:38,340
O'Neill who was then the respected

783
00:33:43,310 --> 00:33:40,559
science editor of the New York Herald

784
00:33:45,710 --> 00:33:43,320
Tribune received the scornful response

785
00:33:48,590 --> 00:33:45,720
he had expected but it dissipated

786
00:33:52,310 --> 00:33:48,600
rapidly when famed British celinologist

787
00:33:54,769 --> 00:33:52,320
Dr H Percy Wilkins reported seeing the

788
00:33:56,630 --> 00:33:54,779
same thing just one month after

789
00:33:59,269 --> 00:33:56,640
O'Neill's discovery

790
00:34:02,750 --> 00:33:59,279
shortly afterward the bridge or whatever

791
00:34:04,549 --> 00:34:02,760
it was vanished from the maracrisium or

792
00:34:05,870 --> 00:34:04,559
at least it vanished from the sight of

793
00:34:12,050 --> 00:34:05,880
man

794
00:34:14,869 --> 00:34:12,060
the army space development program said

795
00:34:16,730 --> 00:34:14,879
that the first men to the Moon must be

796
00:34:20,270 --> 00:34:16,740
prepared to fight for the privilege of

797
00:34:22,129 --> 00:34:20,280
Landing Dr Carl Sagan advisor on

798
00:34:26,149 --> 00:34:22,139
extraterrestrial life to the armed

799
00:34:28,310 --> 00:34:26,159
services said in December of 1962 that

800
00:34:30,649 --> 00:34:28,320
man must be prepared to face the

801
00:34:33,349 --> 00:34:30,659
probability that we have already been

802
00:34:36,649 --> 00:34:33,359
visited by beings from elsewhere in the

803
00:34:40,070 --> 00:34:36,659
universe and that these beings have or

804
00:34:42,230 --> 00:34:40,080
have had bases on the averted Side of

805
00:34:46,310 --> 00:34:42,240
the Moon from where they could easily

806
00:34:49,070 --> 00:34:46,320
see us but where we could not see them

807
00:34:51,950 --> 00:34:49,080
does this help to explain our 20 billion

808
00:34:53,629 --> 00:34:51,960
dollar rice to put men on the moon does

809
00:34:56,510 --> 00:34:53,639
it explain the Russian's repeated

810
00:34:57,770 --> 00:34:56,520
efforts to photograph the averted Side

811
00:35:00,349 --> 00:34:57,780
of the Moon

812
00:35:01,609 --> 00:35:00,359
is the moon already a way station for

813
00:35:03,410 --> 00:35:01,619
space travel

814
00:35:04,910 --> 00:35:03,420
just as we hope to use it ourselves

815
00:35:08,150 --> 00:35:04,920
someday

816
00:35:10,849 --> 00:35:08,160
at this period in human Affairs no man

817
00:35:13,370 --> 00:35:10,859
has the answers to those questions but

818
00:35:19,670 --> 00:35:13,380
the waiting period is rapidly drawing to

819
00:35:25,130 --> 00:35:22,730
12 glowing disc shaped UFOs came over

820
00:35:26,710 --> 00:35:25,140
the city of Washington D.C on the night

821
00:35:30,410 --> 00:35:26,720
of July 19

822
00:35:32,450 --> 00:35:30,420
1952 they were tracked on radar they

823
00:35:34,250 --> 00:35:32,460
were seen by a great many people they

824
00:35:36,230 --> 00:35:34,260
flew in formation around the White House

825
00:35:39,710 --> 00:35:36,240
and the Capitol building and over the

826
00:35:41,510 --> 00:35:39,720
Pentagon they insult Supreme most of the

827
00:35:44,390 --> 00:35:41,520
objects were gone by the time the first

828
00:35:45,950 --> 00:35:44,400
Jets arrived for the Jets which were

829
00:35:48,170 --> 00:35:45,960
supposed to protect the city of

830
00:35:51,349 --> 00:35:48,180
Washington had been on patrol over

831
00:35:53,329 --> 00:35:51,359
Delaware where a huge UFO was hovering

832
00:35:55,670 --> 00:35:53,339
at Great altitude

833
00:35:58,250 --> 00:35:55,680
this incident made worldwide headlines

834
00:36:00,950 --> 00:35:58,260
of course here was the capital of the

835
00:36:03,710 --> 00:36:00,960
world's major power being visited by

836
00:36:05,690 --> 00:36:03,720
alien craft of Unknown Origin and

837
00:36:07,730 --> 00:36:05,700
finding the military powerless to deal

838
00:36:10,250 --> 00:36:07,740
with the development there were three

839
00:36:13,190 --> 00:36:10,260
Washington incidents of this type the

840
00:36:15,410 --> 00:36:13,200
one just mentioned another on July 25th

841
00:36:18,530 --> 00:36:15,420
and the biggest of all on the night of

842
00:36:20,810 --> 00:36:18,540
August 13 1952 when the Civil

843
00:36:24,230 --> 00:36:20,820
Aeronautics Administration reported that

844
00:36:26,150 --> 00:36:24,240
a total of 68 UFOs were present over the

845
00:36:27,230 --> 00:36:26,160
District of Columbia during that one

846
00:36:29,510 --> 00:36:27,240
night

847
00:36:31,910 --> 00:36:29,520
but the military acted promptly when the

848
00:36:34,250 --> 00:36:31,920
UFOs got to Washington they had a

849
00:36:36,490 --> 00:36:34,260
difficult choice to make they either had

850
00:36:39,109 --> 00:36:36,500
to admit what was known about the UFOs

851
00:36:42,290 --> 00:36:39,119
or to pretend there was nothing up there

852
00:36:44,930 --> 00:36:42,300
while they tried to find an answer and

853
00:36:46,970 --> 00:36:44,940
that was the choice they made and it was

854
00:36:49,130 --> 00:36:46,980
a good choice at the time the order

855
00:36:51,589 --> 00:36:49,140
which imposes the strict censorship on

856
00:36:53,450 --> 00:36:51,599
the subject of UFOs is a regulation

857
00:36:57,950 --> 00:36:53,460
which came from The Joint Chiefs of

858
00:37:01,310 --> 00:36:57,960
Staff or higher it is known as jnap 146

859
00:37:05,270 --> 00:37:01,320
which means joint Army Navy air

860
00:37:08,030 --> 00:37:05,280
publication number 146. this conclude

861
00:37:10,670 --> 00:37:08,040
the other military services and requires

862
00:37:13,190 --> 00:37:10,680
them to channel their UFO reports to the

863
00:37:15,650 --> 00:37:13,200
Air Force this is the order which

864
00:37:18,530 --> 00:37:15,660
specifies that the Air Force shall make

865
00:37:20,569 --> 00:37:18,540
all the UFO investigations and shall

866
00:37:23,630 --> 00:37:20,579
make all the Press statements on the

867
00:37:26,210 --> 00:37:23,640
subject it also specifically provides

868
00:37:29,210 --> 00:37:26,220
that the Air Force can tell the public

869
00:37:32,990 --> 00:37:29,220
only that the UFOs are conventional

870
00:37:35,810 --> 00:37:33,000
objects or conditions fortunately that

871
00:37:38,089 --> 00:37:35,820
order was not immediately classified and

872
00:37:40,010 --> 00:37:38,099
a few copies of it got out before the

873
00:37:42,650 --> 00:37:40,020
sensors placed it on the classified list

874
00:37:43,970 --> 00:37:42,660
and prevented the public knowing of its

875
00:37:46,849 --> 00:37:43,980
existence

876
00:37:50,390 --> 00:37:46,859
thus as a result of the aerial invasion

877
00:37:54,650 --> 00:37:50,400
of Washington D.C by unidentified flying

878
00:37:56,810 --> 00:37:54,660
objects in July and August of 1952 we

879
00:37:59,690 --> 00:37:56,820
embarked on an official policy which

880
00:38:02,630 --> 00:37:59,700
Still Remains in force it was a wise

881
00:38:04,609 --> 00:38:02,640
policy at its Inception but time and

882
00:38:06,410 --> 00:38:04,619
events have passed it by

883
00:38:08,569 --> 00:38:06,420
under the conditions of the censorship

884
00:38:10,849 --> 00:38:08,579
regulation the Air Force tried to carry

885
00:38:13,250 --> 00:38:10,859
out its orders but it was a difficult

886
00:38:16,730 --> 00:38:13,260
assignment at best and in the long run

887
00:38:19,010 --> 00:38:16,740
an impossible task the section which

888
00:38:21,170 --> 00:38:19,020
required the Air Force to identify these

889
00:38:23,510 --> 00:38:21,180
things to the public only as

890
00:38:25,730 --> 00:38:23,520
conventional objects or conditions

891
00:38:28,250 --> 00:38:25,740
finally led to the breakdown of the

892
00:38:31,550 --> 00:38:28,260
entire censorship program an almost

893
00:38:33,650 --> 00:38:31,560
inevitable turn of events for as more

894
00:38:37,370 --> 00:38:33,660
and more credible witnesses around the

895
00:38:39,230 --> 00:38:37,380
world reported more and more UFOs the

896
00:38:41,690 --> 00:38:39,240
official protestations that these people

897
00:38:44,690 --> 00:38:41,700
were seeing nothing more than swarms of

898
00:38:48,170 --> 00:38:44,700
luminous flying ants or searchlights on

899
00:38:51,050 --> 00:38:48,180
the clouds began to lose their appeal

900
00:38:54,410 --> 00:38:51,060
the first major Rift between the sensors

901
00:38:56,990 --> 00:38:54,420
and the Press came in the summer of 1965

902
00:38:59,089 --> 00:38:57,000
when tens of thousands of people in the

903
00:39:01,670 --> 00:38:59,099
Great Plains states watched weird

904
00:39:04,250 --> 00:39:01,680
formations of colored lights maneuvering

905
00:39:06,410 --> 00:39:04,260
around in the skies from The Dakotas to

906
00:39:07,790 --> 00:39:06,420
the Mexican border the things were seen

907
00:39:10,310 --> 00:39:07,800
on radar they were seen through

908
00:39:12,349 --> 00:39:10,320
binoculars and with the naked eye they

909
00:39:14,630 --> 00:39:12,359
were seen following planes they were

910
00:39:17,750 --> 00:39:14,640
photographed both by amateurs and

911
00:39:19,490 --> 00:39:17,760
professionals but next day when the news

912
00:39:21,829 --> 00:39:19,500
Services called on the Air Force

913
00:39:23,870 --> 00:39:21,839
investigators for an explanation they

914
00:39:26,630 --> 00:39:23,880
were told that the lights had been

915
00:39:28,450 --> 00:39:26,640
nothing more than four stars in the

916
00:39:31,250 --> 00:39:28,460
constellation Orion

917
00:39:33,170 --> 00:39:31,260
astronomers promptly denounced that as

918
00:39:35,450 --> 00:39:33,180
an impossibility since that

919
00:39:38,390 --> 00:39:35,460
constellation was on the other side of

920
00:39:40,550 --> 00:39:38,400
the Earth at the time of the sightings

921
00:39:43,069 --> 00:39:40,560
hundreds of irate editors loosed their

922
00:39:45,770 --> 00:39:43,079
barbs at the Air Force for this boo-boo

923
00:39:47,510 --> 00:39:45,780
yet under the circumstances it was

924
00:39:48,650 --> 00:39:47,520
probably as good as anything they could

925
00:39:50,750 --> 00:39:48,660
have offered

926
00:39:52,550 --> 00:39:50,760
under the restrictions

927
00:39:56,030 --> 00:39:52,560
the final breakdown of the censorship

928
00:39:58,430 --> 00:39:56,040
program occurred early in 1966 when

929
00:40:00,710 --> 00:39:58,440
hundreds of students and police and

930
00:40:03,730 --> 00:40:00,720
faculty members of the University of

931
00:40:06,310 --> 00:40:03,740
Michigan watched four and sometimes five

932
00:40:09,890 --> 00:40:06,320
glowing football-shaped objects

933
00:40:12,530 --> 00:40:09,900
maneuvering at low altitude in that area

934
00:40:14,930 --> 00:40:12,540
a farmer and his son told authorities

935
00:40:17,690 --> 00:40:14,940
that they had seen one of the things on

936
00:40:19,609 --> 00:40:17,700
the ground and had been close enough to

937
00:40:23,390 --> 00:40:19,619
see that it had a sort of waffled

938
00:40:25,370 --> 00:40:23,400
surface and that it was football shaped

939
00:40:28,670 --> 00:40:25,380
the official explanation was offered

940
00:40:30,050 --> 00:40:28,680
after a very brief investigation only a

941
00:40:33,170 --> 00:40:30,060
couple of hours and three or four

942
00:40:37,370 --> 00:40:33,180
interviews then the public was told that

943
00:40:39,890 --> 00:40:37,380
these people had been seen swamp gas

944
00:40:41,630 --> 00:40:39,900
there was no swamp involved the

945
00:40:43,730 --> 00:40:41,640
temperature was too low for the gas to

946
00:40:46,370 --> 00:40:43,740
have formed and the light Breeze was

947
00:40:49,310 --> 00:40:46,380
capable of dissipating the gas even had

948
00:40:52,250 --> 00:40:49,320
it existed the net result of this Fiasco

949
00:40:55,250 --> 00:40:52,260
was that swamp gas became a national

950
00:40:57,349 --> 00:40:55,260
joke and the Air Force found itself not

951
00:41:00,109 --> 00:40:57,359
only discredited but facing

952
00:41:02,089 --> 00:41:00,119
Congressional investigation and all of

953
00:41:04,550 --> 00:41:02,099
this because it had merely been trying

954
00:41:07,370 --> 00:41:04,560
to carry out orders

955
00:41:10,130 --> 00:41:07,380
as far as the censorship program was

956
00:41:11,810 --> 00:41:10,140
concerned the damage had been done the

957
00:41:14,750 --> 00:41:11,820
nature and existence of the censorship

958
00:41:17,390 --> 00:41:14,760
was painfully obvious editors resented

959
00:41:19,730 --> 00:41:17,400
it and said so hundreds of them one

960
00:41:22,310 --> 00:41:19,740
television network ran a program which

961
00:41:24,770 --> 00:41:22,320
seemed anxious to present the official

962
00:41:27,290 --> 00:41:24,780
side in the best possible light which

963
00:41:29,870 --> 00:41:27,300
was certainly not an easy task on that

964
00:41:31,550 --> 00:41:29,880
particular program one participant was

965
00:41:35,210 --> 00:41:31,560
permitted to make the unchallenged

966
00:41:37,849 --> 00:41:35,220
Declaration that no UFOs were ever cited

967
00:41:40,310 --> 00:41:37,859
on radar that statement was in direct

968
00:41:43,210 --> 00:41:40,320
contradiction to the facts which include

969
00:41:45,109 --> 00:41:43,220
a book on radar sightings of UFOs

970
00:41:46,430 --> 00:41:45,119
compiled by the civil aviation

971
00:41:48,470 --> 00:41:46,440
Administration

972
00:41:51,950 --> 00:41:48,480
another claim made on that same

973
00:41:55,670 --> 00:41:51,960
broadcast was that none of our tracking

974
00:41:58,069 --> 00:41:55,680
cameras had photographed any UFOs Robin

975
00:42:00,710 --> 00:41:58,079
Sanford for more than 10 years an

976
00:42:02,750 --> 00:42:00,720
official of that particular program says

977
00:42:06,069 --> 00:42:02,760
that from 12 to 15 percent of the

978
00:42:08,930 --> 00:42:06,079
tracking station camera pictures include

979
00:42:13,130 --> 00:42:08,940
unidentified aerial objects

980
00:42:15,230 --> 00:42:13,140
by the end of 1965 the UFO cap was

981
00:42:18,050 --> 00:42:15,240
pretty well out of the bag of censorship

982
00:42:20,810 --> 00:42:18,060
since there had been no hostility by the

983
00:42:23,690 --> 00:42:20,820
UFOs scientists contended that it was

984
00:42:26,510 --> 00:42:23,700
not a military concern but a matter for

985
00:42:32,210 --> 00:42:26,520
scientific investigation which seemed

986
00:42:37,310 --> 00:42:34,849
let's discuss the fascinating riddle of

987
00:42:39,710 --> 00:42:37,320
signals from outer space

988
00:42:43,010 --> 00:42:39,720
in this category we must also include

989
00:42:45,950 --> 00:42:43,020
such items as our own nuclear explosions

990
00:42:48,710 --> 00:42:45,960
for their byproduct of that incredibly

991
00:42:50,810 --> 00:42:48,720
brilliant flesh and their radiation

992
00:42:53,150 --> 00:42:50,820
which would be detectable at much

993
00:42:56,030 --> 00:42:53,160
greater distances than the flash itself

994
00:42:58,609 --> 00:42:56,040
may very well have served notice on

995
00:43:01,370 --> 00:42:58,619
other residents of the cosmos that the

996
00:43:03,349 --> 00:43:01,380
Dwellers on this tiny planet of ours are

997
00:43:06,770 --> 00:43:03,359
learning to use the fury of the split

998
00:43:08,589 --> 00:43:06,780
atom that in a relatively short time we

999
00:43:11,450 --> 00:43:08,599
would be able to move about in space

1000
00:43:12,950 --> 00:43:11,460
just as others have evidently been doing

1001
00:43:15,349 --> 00:43:12,960
before us

1002
00:43:19,030 --> 00:43:15,359
this may explain the dramatic appearance

1003
00:43:23,630 --> 00:43:19,040
of unidentified flying objects in May of

1004
00:43:26,089 --> 00:43:23,640
1946 one year after man exploded his

1005
00:43:28,190 --> 00:43:26,099
first nuclear device

1006
00:43:31,450 --> 00:43:28,200
but there had been other indications of

1007
00:43:34,790 --> 00:43:31,460
Life out there both before and after the

1008
00:43:36,890 --> 00:43:34,800
1946 UFO visitation

1009
00:43:39,170 --> 00:43:36,900
and in that other evidence which I

1010
00:43:40,309 --> 00:43:39,180
mentioned there seems to be a pattern of

1011
00:43:43,190 --> 00:43:40,319
sorts

1012
00:43:46,309 --> 00:43:43,200
a time interval which may give us a clue

1013
00:43:48,470 --> 00:43:46,319
to our nearest Neighbors in space

1014
00:43:50,089 --> 00:43:48,480
let us take note of the details of this

1015
00:43:53,210 --> 00:43:50,099
strange business

1016
00:43:57,589 --> 00:43:53,220
Nikola Tesla sent out tremendously

1017
00:43:59,510 --> 00:43:57,599
powerful radio signals in 1899 signals

1018
00:44:02,270 --> 00:43:59,520
that were little more than man-made

1019
00:44:04,609 --> 00:44:02,280
lightning bolts delivered in measured

1020
00:44:06,410 --> 00:44:04,619
sequence they could be picked up at

1021
00:44:08,390 --> 00:44:06,420
Great distance from the Earth

1022
00:44:10,730 --> 00:44:08,400
if anybody was listening

1023
00:44:14,870 --> 00:44:10,740
Marconi picked up strange signals from

1024
00:44:19,190 --> 00:44:14,880
space exactly 22 years later the origin

1025
00:44:21,890 --> 00:44:19,200
of those signals was and is unknown but

1026
00:44:25,550 --> 00:44:21,900
the really interesting Factor here is

1027
00:44:28,849 --> 00:44:25,560
that 22-year sequence between powerful

1028
00:44:30,230 --> 00:44:28,859
man-made signals and signals from outer

1029
00:44:33,950 --> 00:44:30,240
space

1030
00:44:36,710 --> 00:44:33,960
in 1924 when the planet Mars came within

1031
00:44:39,530 --> 00:44:36,720
35 million miles of the Earth the United

1032
00:44:42,470 --> 00:44:39,540
States Navy hired scientists to record

1033
00:44:44,950 --> 00:44:42,480
radio signals on photographic paper

1034
00:44:48,589 --> 00:44:44,960
which moved through a special machine

1035
00:44:51,650 --> 00:44:48,599
the antennas were turned toward Mars

1036
00:44:53,809 --> 00:44:51,660
signals came in when the sensitized

1037
00:44:56,870 --> 00:44:53,819
paper was developed it showed

1038
00:45:00,410 --> 00:44:56,880
unintelligible strings of dots and ages

1039
00:45:03,290 --> 00:45:00,420
but it also showed clumps of signals

1040
00:45:04,849 --> 00:45:03,300
which resembled crude caricatures of

1041
00:45:07,849 --> 00:45:04,859
human faces

1042
00:45:09,770 --> 00:45:07,859
there was no explanation then and there

1043
00:45:12,770 --> 00:45:09,780
is none now

1044
00:45:16,370 --> 00:45:12,780
that was in 1924.

1045
00:45:18,829 --> 00:45:16,380
22 years later the UFOs swarmed over

1046
00:45:21,470 --> 00:45:18,839
Northwestern Europe and began their

1047
00:45:22,670 --> 00:45:21,480
systematic surveillance of man and his

1048
00:45:25,390 --> 00:45:22,680
works

1049
00:45:28,849 --> 00:45:25,400
and more radio signals kept trickling in

1050
00:45:32,750 --> 00:45:28,859
fragmentary signals and 22 years old

1051
00:45:35,030 --> 00:45:32,760
when we got them back from somewhere

1052
00:45:37,370 --> 00:45:35,040
in more recent years many countries have

1053
00:45:39,829 --> 00:45:37,380
built huge radio telescopes those

1054
00:45:42,770 --> 00:45:39,839
telescopes and especially those at Green

1055
00:45:45,109 --> 00:45:42,780
Bank West Virginia have devoted and are

1056
00:45:48,530 --> 00:45:45,119
devoting a great deal of time and

1057
00:45:52,430 --> 00:45:48,540
scientific manpower to the study of two

1058
00:45:55,970 --> 00:45:52,440
particular Stars Tau Si Thai and Epsilon

1059
00:45:58,430 --> 00:45:55,980
iridine some of the incoming signals

1060
00:46:01,010 --> 00:45:58,440
were so startling and perhaps so

1061
00:46:04,250 --> 00:46:01,020
important that a special secret meeting

1062
00:46:07,609 --> 00:46:04,260
of experts in this field was held to

1063
00:46:10,190 --> 00:46:07,619
discuss the findings whatever they were

1064
00:46:14,510 --> 00:46:10,200
why all this spatial attention to those

1065
00:46:17,089 --> 00:46:14,520
two stars Tau Sita and Epsilon iridoni

1066
00:46:20,270 --> 00:46:17,099
could it be due to the fact that they

1067
00:46:22,210 --> 00:46:20,280
are exactly 11 light years away which

1068
00:46:26,690 --> 00:46:22,220
means that a transmitter in that area

1069
00:46:27,950 --> 00:46:26,700
might be returning our signals 22 years

1070
00:46:30,950 --> 00:46:27,960
late

1071
00:46:33,589 --> 00:46:30,960
if we are being signaled and visited by

1072
00:46:36,170 --> 00:46:33,599
sentient beings from space what kind of

1073
00:46:38,569 --> 00:46:36,180
creatures are they all the credible

1074
00:46:41,210 --> 00:46:38,579
Witnesses including a veteran police

1075
00:46:44,690 --> 00:46:41,220
officer a fine repute in Socorro New

1076
00:46:47,450 --> 00:46:44,700
Mexico described the creatures as small

1077
00:46:50,750 --> 00:46:47,460
man-like fellows less than four feet

1078
00:46:53,569 --> 00:46:50,760
tall wearing shiny space suits and

1079
00:46:56,210 --> 00:46:53,579
transparent helmets much like our own

1080
00:46:59,809 --> 00:46:56,220
Spacemen in miniature

1081
00:47:02,270 --> 00:46:59,819
where do they come from nobody knows yet

1082
00:47:05,950 --> 00:47:02,280
why don't they contact us

1083
00:47:09,650 --> 00:47:05,960
well we have shot at them with Canon

1084
00:47:12,290 --> 00:47:09,660
rifles pistols shotguns and guided

1085
00:47:15,349 --> 00:47:12,300
missiles they may regard this action on

1086
00:47:19,609 --> 00:47:15,359
our part as unfriendly

1087
00:47:21,589 --> 00:47:19,619
when will they contact us if ever

1088
00:47:25,370 --> 00:47:21,599
the fact that they are still with us

1089
00:47:29,150 --> 00:47:25,380
after all these years probably means

1090
00:47:30,670 --> 00:47:29,160
that they intend an eventual contact a

1091
00:47:33,230 --> 00:47:30,680
study of their past performance

1092
00:47:35,870 --> 00:47:33,240
indicates that we are in the closing

1093
00:47:39,470 --> 00:47:35,880
phases of a long and careful

1094
00:47:42,410 --> 00:47:39,480
surveillance at this pace contact may

1095
00:47:44,450 --> 00:47:42,420
occur in the next two or three years or

1096
00:47:47,089 --> 00:47:44,460
it could come tomorrow

1097
00:47:50,089 --> 00:47:47,099
the more we study the evidence that is

1098
00:47:52,790 --> 00:47:50,099
being assembled all over the Earth the

1099
00:47:55,190 --> 00:47:52,800
more inescapable the conclusion that man

1100
00:47:57,589 --> 00:47:55,200
had best prepare himself for the

1101
00:47:59,710 --> 00:47:57,599
greatest event in human history the

1102
00:48:03,410 --> 00:47:59,720
realization that we are about to contact

1103
00:48:05,690 --> 00:48:03,420
or to be contacted by sentient beings

1104
00:48:08,030 --> 00:48:05,700
from elsewhere in the universe

1105
00:48:11,089 --> 00:48:08,040
the late general Douglas MacArthur said

1106
00:48:14,569 --> 00:48:11,099
that this confrontation would be the

1107
00:48:19,190 --> 00:48:14,579
greatest challenge man ever had to face
