00:07:20,960 during uh junior high 181 00:07:26,390 --> 00:07:24,160 and there was a snowstorm 182 00:07:29,189 --> 00:07:26,400 which is uh it's unusual to have 183 00:07:33,670 --> 00:07:29,199 lightning during a snowstorm but we did 184 00:07:37,029 --> 00:07:33,680 the house got hit i was making 185 00:07:44,550 --> 00:07:37,039 cinnamon toast in the oven 186 00:07:48,550 --> 00:07:44,560 and opened the oven and there's a 187 00:07:49,350 --> 00:07:48,560 small ball of light about as big as a 188 00:07:52,469 --> 00:07:49,360 quarter 189 00:07:54,309 --> 00:07:52,479 uh resting over the uh 190 00:07:55,670 --> 00:07:54,319 over the grate it wasn't touching the 191 00:07:57,990 --> 00:07:55,680 grape but it was just 192 00:07:59,510 --> 00:07:58,000 over it and as i opened the door it 193 00:08:02,550 --> 00:07:59,520 started to roll out 194 00:08:05,589 --> 00:08:02,560 and it fell and then it exploded just 195 00:08:08,790 --> 00:08:05,599 like a cherry bomb going off 196 00:08:11,270 --> 00:08:08,800 yeah and i fell over backwards because 197 00:08:13,510 --> 00:08:11,280 it was such a shock 198 00:08:15,589 --> 00:08:13,520 and uh when my father came home who was 199 00:08:16,150 --> 00:08:15,599 a chemist i asked him what was going on 200 00:08:18,390 --> 00:08:16,160 and he 201 00:08:22,469 --> 00:08:18,400 said i don't know that's what the 202 00:08:26,950 --> 00:08:25,029 that's exactly what i did and i i 203 00:08:28,230 --> 00:08:26,960 settled on the idea that it was ball 204 00:08:29,670 --> 00:08:28,240 lightning 205 00:08:31,749 --> 00:08:29,680 and was very interesting because i 206 00:08:32,790 --> 00:08:31,759 looked in the encyclopedia britannica 207 00:08:35,909 --> 00:08:32,800 and it said 208 00:08:36,790 --> 00:08:35,919 scientists doubt that this exists so 209 00:08:40,389 --> 00:08:36,800 after that i 210 00:08:42,709 --> 00:08:40,399 uh i everything i could find on ball 211 00:08:43,589 --> 00:08:42,719 lightning in the library and elsewhere i 212 00:08:47,430 --> 00:08:43,599 i looked at 213 00:08:49,670 --> 00:08:47,440 and after that after a while i got 214 00:08:52,829 --> 00:08:49,680 involved in ufos because it seemed like 215 00:08:58,790 --> 00:08:56,470 unusual uh 216 00:09:00,949 --> 00:08:58,800 aerial phenomena so i was i got 217 00:09:02,710 --> 00:09:00,959 interested in that when i read rupelt's 218 00:09:04,630 --> 00:09:02,720 book uh 219 00:09:05,910 --> 00:09:04,640 the report on unidentified flying 220 00:09:09,269 --> 00:09:05,920 objects 221 00:09:12,790 --> 00:09:09,279 by the uh head of project blue book from 222 00:09:14,870 --> 00:09:12,800 approximately 51-53 223 00:09:16,389 --> 00:09:14,880 right when did he write that book we 224 00:09:18,949 --> 00:09:16,399 just did a blog about that and i have 225 00:09:21,910 --> 00:09:18,959 the book here on my shelf the original 226 00:09:23,829 --> 00:09:21,920 wait wasn't it wow yeah i have the 227 00:09:26,310 --> 00:09:23,839 original book i'm happy to say 228 00:09:28,150 --> 00:09:26,320 and uh that i've told people over the 229 00:09:32,310 --> 00:09:28,160 years that is a really good book 230 00:09:38,870 --> 00:09:36,070 yeah that has i mean some of his 231 00:09:40,389 --> 00:09:38,880 information is third and fourth hand 232 00:09:43,430 --> 00:09:40,399 however 233 00:09:44,389 --> 00:09:43,440 some of it is even though it's third and 234 00:09:46,870 --> 00:09:44,399 fourth hand in 235 00:09:49,430 --> 00:09:46,880 in cases it's the only information we've 236 00:09:52,790 --> 00:09:49,440 got on certain periods 237 00:09:55,670 --> 00:09:52,800 yeah that that happen so it's uh 238 00:09:57,269 --> 00:09:55,680 it it's it's an important book to read 239 00:09:58,870 --> 00:09:57,279 and everybody should read it if they're 240 00:10:01,750 --> 00:09:58,880 going to uh 241 00:10:02,470 --> 00:10:01,760 uh be interested in this subject it 242 00:10:05,110 --> 00:10:02,480 gives you a 243 00:10:07,430 --> 00:10:05,120 a good idea about what happened during 244 00:10:13,269 --> 00:10:09,990 short period about two and a half years 245 00:10:22,389 --> 00:10:19,190 the investigation was more open 246 00:10:24,389 --> 00:10:22,399 so not saying it was completely open and 247 00:10:26,470 --> 00:10:24,399 there's all kinds of uh things we've 248 00:10:29,190 --> 00:10:26,480 found since then 249 00:10:32,150 --> 00:10:29,200 for for example i have uh copies of 250 00:10:35,670 --> 00:10:32,160 rupelt's papers 251 00:10:39,590 --> 00:10:35,680 about four or five boxes of 252 00:10:42,790 --> 00:10:39,600 material notes he kept 253 00:10:46,310 --> 00:10:42,800 and uh he kept summaries of uh 254 00:10:49,750 --> 00:10:46,320 ufo cases that he got from his uh 255 00:10:53,190 --> 00:10:49,760 one of his uh subordinates while 256 00:10:55,670 --> 00:10:53,200 after he left wright patterson after he 257 00:10:59,430 --> 00:10:55,680 left the air force 258 00:10:59,990 --> 00:10:59,440 uh so that that's an interesting thing 259 00:11:03,269 --> 00:11:00,000 we've got 260 00:11:06,790 --> 00:11:03,279 uh uh 261 00:11:08,949 --> 00:11:06,800 so that has that has historical 262 00:11:10,470 --> 00:11:08,959 uh significance because in writing the 263 00:11:12,949 --> 00:11:10,480 book he 264 00:11:13,590 --> 00:11:12,959 he put his notes on index cards there's 265 00:11:16,310 --> 00:11:13,600 about the 266 00:11:18,470 --> 00:11:16,320 300 index cards that he's got a lot of 267 00:11:20,470 --> 00:11:18,480 it he didn't use in the books he cut it 268 00:11:24,710 --> 00:11:20,480 down 269 00:11:28,310 --> 00:11:24,720 and uh his first draft i have that 270 00:11:30,069 --> 00:11:28,320 so uh cut 271 00:11:33,350 --> 00:11:30,079 certain things out of there that are 272 00:11:34,790 --> 00:11:33,360 interesting and 273 00:11:36,389 --> 00:11:34,800 there are certain things that he got 274 00:11:39,269 --> 00:11:36,399 wrong 275 00:11:43,910 --> 00:11:39,279 i mean he thinks that uh he thought up 276 00:11:48,470 --> 00:11:47,430 battelle he was the one that suggested 277 00:11:51,590 --> 00:11:48,480 that 278 00:11:53,829 --> 00:11:51,600 some kind of computerized study should 279 00:11:57,590 --> 00:11:53,839 be done and battelle had already been 280 00:12:00,870 --> 00:11:57,600 contracted to that before he was ever 281 00:12:03,750 --> 00:12:00,880 in uh in the ufo business 282 00:12:04,710 --> 00:12:03,760 that had already been done so that 283 00:12:07,990 --> 00:12:04,720 that's 284 00:12:08,870 --> 00:12:08,000 in the book there and also in some of 285 00:12:12,230 --> 00:12:08,880 his writings 286 00:12:14,470 --> 00:12:12,240 but that was not correct 287 00:12:16,550 --> 00:12:14,480 air force intelligence documents 288 00:12:18,550 --> 00:12:16,560 indicate that 289 00:12:19,590 --> 00:12:18,560 that was already programmed in before he 290 00:12:25,110 --> 00:12:19,600 ever became 291 00:12:27,829 --> 00:12:25,120 part of the ufo investigations 292 00:12:29,350 --> 00:12:27,839 um now what do you think about his 293 00:12:31,509 --> 00:12:29,360 there's a little bit of controversy in 294 00:12:33,990 --> 00:12:31,519 his changing opinion why he 295 00:12:34,949 --> 00:12:34,000 he changed his opinion on the topic of 296 00:12:38,790 --> 00:12:34,959 what a ufo 297 00:12:41,829 --> 00:12:38,800 is and had to do with the satellites um 298 00:12:43,670 --> 00:12:41,839 you know that uh i believe or something 299 00:12:46,629 --> 00:12:43,680 do you know what i'm talking about 300 00:12:47,190 --> 00:12:46,639 yes he he wrote an a different uh he 301 00:12:50,710 --> 00:12:47,200 wrote 302 00:12:53,350 --> 00:12:50,720 three additional chapters to his book 303 00:12:54,389 --> 00:12:53,360 right that's right uh one was pretty 304 00:12:56,790 --> 00:12:54,399 straight it 305 00:12:58,150 --> 00:12:56,800 it just gave more of the history up to 306 00:13:00,069 --> 00:12:58,160 the time that 307 00:13:01,590 --> 00:13:00,079 of the added chapters and the other two 308 00:13:07,829 --> 00:13:01,600 were 309 00:13:10,550 --> 00:13:07,839 uh rather negative uh 310 00:13:11,030 --> 00:13:10,560 it's hard to tell exactly where he was 311 00:13:17,030 --> 00:13:11,040 on 312 00:13:18,550 --> 00:13:17,040 he was you know i'm really puzzled i 313 00:13:19,990 --> 00:13:18,560 don't know what they are and the next 314 00:13:26,069 --> 00:13:20,000 day he'd be disgusted 315 00:13:30,069 --> 00:13:28,230 i think he thought that ufos were going 316 00:13:33,509 --> 00:13:30,079 to be a 317 00:13:36,949 --> 00:13:33,519 a key to a long 318 00:13:38,470 --> 00:13:36,959 active duty career and it didn't turn 319 00:13:41,590 --> 00:13:38,480 out that way uh he 320 00:13:43,509 --> 00:13:41,600 uh he was just in for the korean war 321 00:13:45,590 --> 00:13:43,519 they brought in a lot of uh 322 00:13:49,030 --> 00:13:45,600 reservists for the korean war and he was 323 00:13:55,269 --> 00:13:52,069 when the war started to 324 00:14:03,350 --> 00:13:59,990 uh he was he was you know returned to 325 00:14:07,269 --> 00:14:03,360 civilian status 326 00:14:10,470 --> 00:14:07,279 hmm right and uh uh 327 00:14:13,910 --> 00:14:10,480 when you when he when he uh when he left 328 00:14:20,230 --> 00:14:17,430 he gave some rather negative comments 329 00:14:23,829 --> 00:14:20,240 about ufos 330 00:14:25,910 --> 00:14:23,839 um yes then he wrote a uh 331 00:14:27,030 --> 00:14:25,920 thing for true magazine which was a 332 00:14:32,389 --> 00:14:27,040 really popular 333 00:14:36,790 --> 00:14:34,790 and the editor of true magazine told 334 00:14:39,829 --> 00:14:36,800 them 335 00:14:44,230 --> 00:14:39,839 uh if you don't if you don't 336 00:14:46,069 --> 00:14:44,240 write this in a an objective manner 337 00:14:47,350 --> 00:14:46,079 you know it won't be accepted by the 338 00:14:50,470 --> 00:14:47,360 public 339 00:14:54,790 --> 00:14:50,480 so he was pretty uh 340 00:14:57,670 --> 00:14:54,800 he was on the fence in that article 341 00:14:59,110 --> 00:14:57,680 and uh he he got two thousand dollars 342 00:15:01,509 --> 00:14:59,120 for the article which in 343 00:15:03,829 --> 00:15:01,519 in the 1950s that is a lot of money that 344 00:15:05,910 --> 00:15:03,839 was a down payment on a house 345 00:15:10,829 --> 00:15:05,920 absolutely so he decided to write the 346 00:15:17,750 --> 00:15:14,069 uh sort of objective 347 00:15:23,509 --> 00:15:17,760 thing but i i always thought that he was 348 00:15:31,110 --> 00:15:28,389 he was he wasn't objective i don't think 349 00:15:31,829 --> 00:15:31,120 and he pretty much thought the ufo's 350 00:15:36,949 --> 00:15:31,839 works 351 00:15:42,150 --> 00:15:40,710 no doubt he the air force may have 352 00:15:44,949 --> 00:15:42,160 brought some 353 00:15:48,949 --> 00:15:44,959 pressure on him but i think he was 354 00:15:50,870 --> 00:15:48,959 immutable to having the chapter changed 355 00:15:52,550 --> 00:15:50,880 even though he had given an interview in 356 00:15:54,530 --> 00:15:52,560 57 he had 357 00:15:56,389 --> 00:15:54,540 said that 358 00:15:59,189 --> 00:15:56,399 [Music] 359 00:16:01,189 --> 00:15:59,199 he thought that with the electromagnetic 360 00:16:04,470 --> 00:16:01,199 effects demonstrated in the 361 00:16:10,710 --> 00:16:04,480 southwest united states that 362 00:16:17,590 --> 00:16:14,230 the investigation should be ramped up 363 00:16:21,110 --> 00:16:17,600 but then shortly after that he added his 364 00:16:24,790 --> 00:16:21,120 uh more or less debunking chapters 365 00:16:26,629 --> 00:16:24,800 um the the the people at uh civilian 366 00:16:28,629 --> 00:16:26,639 saucer intelligence in new york 367 00:16:31,509 --> 00:16:28,639 more or less said well this is his 368 00:16:35,030 --> 00:16:31,519 attitude anyways 369 00:16:36,389 --> 00:16:35,040 you know because he had spoken with them 370 00:16:38,230 --> 00:16:36,399 and they 371 00:16:39,910 --> 00:16:38,240 you know they were not they were not 372 00:16:44,230 --> 00:16:39,920 impressed with his so-called 373 00:16:47,269 --> 00:16:44,240 objectivity right he died very young 374 00:16:48,230 --> 00:16:47,279 like 37 or something he had a type a 375 00:16:51,269 --> 00:16:48,240 personality 376 00:16:53,350 --> 00:16:51,279 and we talked to uh one of the uh 377 00:16:54,870 --> 00:16:53,360 lieutenants that was that worked for him 378 00:16:57,350 --> 00:16:54,880 and uh 379 00:16:59,670 --> 00:16:57,360 and we told him

00:29:52,789 they're coming into minot 630 00:29:56,389 --> 00:29:54,630 people on the ground had already 631 00:30:00,549 --> 00:29:56,399 reported 632 00:30:02,149 --> 00:30:00,559 the uh various ground personnel had 633 00:30:05,590 --> 00:30:02,159 already reported 634 00:30:09,990 --> 00:30:05,600 ufos over minot 635 00:30:13,750 --> 00:30:10,000 and as they approached it 636 00:30:21,430 --> 00:30:17,669 the aircraft was followed by 637 00:30:24,230 --> 00:30:21,440 a ufo now 638 00:30:26,070 --> 00:30:24,240 the people in the aircraft could not see 639 00:30:28,470 --> 00:30:26,080 that because it was behind them but they 640 00:30:30,310 --> 00:30:28,480 could see it on radar 641 00:30:31,669 --> 00:30:30,320 and once that happened they started 642 00:30:34,710 --> 00:30:31,679 taking 643 00:30:38,149 --> 00:30:34,720 photograph radar photographs 644 00:30:41,190 --> 00:30:38,159 photographs of the radar uh 645 00:30:45,510 --> 00:30:41,200 so it was it was recorded 646 00:30:47,590 --> 00:30:45,520 now this is a project blue book but 647 00:30:49,669 --> 00:30:47,600 content committee did not consider this 648 00:30:51,590 --> 00:30:49,679 case it was never brought to their 649 00:30:56,470 --> 00:30:51,600 attention 650 00:31:00,070 --> 00:30:56,480 um uh 651 00:31:01,990 --> 00:31:00,080 as the as the aircraft uh 652 00:31:04,149 --> 00:31:02,000 well they had to wave off and come back 653 00:31:07,590 --> 00:31:04,159 around as they came back around 654 00:31:14,070 --> 00:31:07,600 the ufo paced them where they could see 655 00:31:21,430 --> 00:31:18,710 red ball with a 656 00:31:23,269 --> 00:31:21,440 going out from there is like a a tunnel 657 00:31:26,389 --> 00:31:23,279 or something 658 00:31:29,830 --> 00:31:26,399 and then uh some kind of a 659 00:31:32,389 --> 00:31:29,840 uh attached was something that looked 660 00:31:37,269 --> 00:31:32,399 like an axe head but 661 00:31:42,149 --> 00:31:37,279 not an accident a manic head 662 00:31:45,590 --> 00:31:42,159 and apparently that was 663 00:31:49,909 --> 00:31:45,600 that was the front of the object 664 00:31:52,149 --> 00:31:49,919 while uh while it was pacing them they 665 00:32:01,909 --> 00:31:52,159 lost 666 00:32:04,950 --> 00:32:01,919 this is nuclear wow capable aircraft 667 00:32:05,830 --> 00:32:04,960 everything is you have double of 668 00:32:07,830 -->

switching to different radios and 672 00:32:17,750 --> 00:32:16,480 switching to different frequencies did 673 00:32:22,470 --> 00:32:17,760 nothing 674 00:32:26,950 --> 00:32:22,480 wow this thing went ahead and uh 675 00:32:30,789 --> 00:32:26,960 departed from from them 676 00:32:34,870 --> 00:32:30,799 and uh they uh 677 00:32:39,590 --> 00:32:37,830 it left them and then when they uh when 678 00:32:42,630 --> 00:32:39,600 they landed they were told uh 679 00:32:46,149 --> 00:32:42,640 send the senior man to 680 00:32:49,029 --> 00:32:46,159 to the operations center 681 00:32:54,950 -->

00:35:02,790 --> 00:34:59,599 and this uh we had not seen the radar 726 00:35:04,630 --> 00:35:02,800 we've seen the radar photographs 727 00:35:07,990 --> 00:35:04,640 in project blue book but they were 728 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:12,310 so uh 729 00:35:15,750 --> 00:35:14,310 we asked them is who who are the other 730 00:35:19,670 --> 00:35:15,760 people on your crew and he 731 00:35:22,150 -->

775 00:37:28,550 --> 00:37:25,280 evaluated the uh 776 00:37:32,110 --> 00:37:28,560 the uh pictures 777 00:37:33,829 --> 00:37:32,120 uh one had been the french 778 00:37:37,670 --> 00:37:33,839 [Music] 779 00:37:43,910 --> 00:37:37,680 ufo project head 780 00:37:51,510 --> 00:37:47,670 a controller an aircraft controller in 781 00:37:53,510 --> 00:37:51,520 england who was very familiar with radar 782 00:37:57,670 --> 00:37:53,520 and so those guys had evaluated and then 783 00:38:02,790 --> 00:38:00,790 and he recognized what was happening on 784 00:38:05,910 --> 00:38:02,800 the radar photographs immediately 785 00:38:08,710 --> 00:38:05,920 and then we showed them to uh colonel 786 00:38:12,710 --> 00:38:08,720 matson down at uh 787 00:38:14,710 --> 00:38:12,720 air and space

thing is going back and forth and 791 00:38:21,670 --> 00:38:20,960 then and it's putting out a tremendous 792 00:38:26,550 --> 00:38:21,680 amount of 793 00:38:34,470 --> 00:38:29,910 plasma type stuff 794 00:38:36,390 --> 00:38:34,480 you know it's so 795 00:38:37,990 --> 00:38:36,400 now before you move on from there can 796 00:38:39,910 --> 00:38:38,000 you can 797 00:38:42,870 --> 00:38:39,920 can you tell me in what direction the 798 00:38:44,870 --> 00:38:42,880 plasma was going off of the object 799 00:38:46,069 --> 00:38:44,880 was it possibly going ahead of the 800 00:38:48,310 --> 00:38:46,079 object around it yeah 801 00:38:49,910 --> 00:38:48,320 yeah yeah they you know they said hey 802 00:38:54,470 --> 00:38:49,920 this is 803 00:38:56,390 --> 00:38:54,480 really important and that's where they 804 00:38:58,870 --> 00:38:56,400 got the uh 805 00:39:01,190 --> 00:38:58,880 the idea is you know how far away was 806 00:39:04,390 --> 00:39:01,200 from the aircraft 807 00:39:07,109 --> 00:39:04,400 by looking at the 808 00:39:08,950 --> 00:39:07,119 radar photographs and the interference 809 00:39:11,589 --> 00:39:08,960 that they encountered 810 00:39:13,589 --> 00:39:11,599 so that was uh had to be a lot of 811 00:39:17,430 --> 00:39:13,599 interference 812 00:39:22,870 --> 00:39:17,440 so wow 813 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,790 90s 814

00:39:48,720 like we had done nothing like nobody 821 00:39:51,109 --> 00:39:50,240 knew anything about the case they 822 00:39:54,390 --> 00:39:51,119 started from 823 00:39:55,589 --> 00:39:54,400 absolute scratch and peter jennings was 824 00:39:57,910 --> 00:39:55,599 the uh 825 00:39:59,190 --> 00:39:57,920 was the newsman that was in in charge of 826 00:40:03,349 --> 00:39:59,200 that and

of the microfilm reels that 1143 00:59:18,870 --> 00:59:18,240 jan has shared with me and as jan 1144 00:59:20,230 --> 00:59:18,880 alluded to 1145 00:59:22,950 --> 00:59:20,240 just a few days ago when we were 1146 00:59:24,230 --> 00:59:22,960 chatting uh some of this material has 1147 00:59:27,430 --> 00:59:24,240 never been seen 1148 00:59:29,750 --> 00:59:27,440 uh by the the larger ufo community 1149 00:59:30,470 --> 00:59:29,760 many of these are scrapbooks news 1150 00:59:33,030 --> 00:59:30,480 clippings 1151 00:59:34,069 --> 00:59:33,040 dating back to the early 1950s all the 1152 00:59:37,030 --> 00:59:34,079 way up until 1153 00:59:37,910 --> 00:59:37,040 the late 60s early 70s as well as some 1154 00:59:40,950 --> 00:59:37,920 of the early 1155 00:59:42,630 --> 00:59:40,960 csi uh documents civilian saucer 1156 00:59:44,710 --> 00:59:42,640 intelligence of new york 1157 00:59:45,910 --> 00:59:44,720 and certainly i can let jan speak a 1158 00:59:47,750 --> 00:59:45,920 little bit more to that he knows the 1159 00:59:49,430 --> 00:59:47,760 history much better than i do but 1160 00:59:51,670 --> 00:59:49,440 i do just want to say since i have this 1161 00:59:53,990 --> 00:59:51,680 opportunity with you and your audience 1162 00:59:55,510 --> 00:59:54,000 when i first got involved in ufos and i 1163 00:59:57,990 --> 00:59:55,520 think i told jan this in a 1164 00:59:59,990 --> 00:59:58,000 recent phone call i was starting to 1165 01:00:02,789 --> 01:00:00,000 learn about the people the places 1166 01:00:04,150 --> 01:00:02,799 the cases etc and i kept coming across 1167 01:00:07,430 --> 01:00:04,160 references to this jan 1168 01:00:10,230 --> 01:00:07,440 aldrich jan aldridge and and 1169 01:00:11,910 --> 01:00:10,240 at that time i'm talking in 1990 i was 1170 01:00:13,829 --> 01:00:11,920 hard-pressed to even find a picture 1171 01:00:15,750 --> 01:00:13,839 of jan aldrich and i'm like who is this 1172 01:00:17,510 --> 01:00:15,760 mysterious character i keep seeing his 1173 01:00:20,789 --> 01:00:17,520 name on everything 1174 01:00:22,309 --> 01:00:20,799 and you know years later fast forward 1175 01:00:24,630 --> 01:00:22,319 not only had the chance to get to meet 1176 01:00:25,190 --> 01:00:24,640 jan to get to know him as an individual 1177 01:00:27,190 --> 01:00:25,200 but you know 1178 01:00:29,910 --> 01:00:27,200 respect his work even more getting to 1179 01:00:31,750 --> 01:00:29,920 know his his work ethic his tenacity 1180 01:00:33,349 --> 01:00:31,760 uh you know some people martin as you 1181 01:00:33,910 --> 01:00:33,359 know and many of your audience members 1182 01:00:36,390 --> 01:00:33,920 know 1183 01:00:37,190 --> 01:00:36,400 people come in and out of the ufo field 1184 01:00:40,150 --> 01:00:37,200 it's very 1185 01:00:41,430 --> 01:00:40,160 rare that you find someone that sticks 1186 01:00:44,470 --> 01:00:41,440 with this subject 1187 01:00:44,870 --> 01:00:44,480 with such tenacity as jan aldridge has 1188 01:00:48,230 --> 01:00:44,880 done 1189 01:00:51,430 --> 01:00:48,240 over decades not months not years 1190 01:00:53,589 --> 01:00:51,440 decades and has done so 1191 01:00:54,789 --> 01:00:53,599 and has diligently worked to bring this 1192 01:00:57,109 --> 01:00:54,799 history to light 1193 01:00:58,710 --> 01:00:57,119 and i i think even people that are 1194 01:01:01,829 --> 01:00:58,720 involved in ufos sometimes 1195 01:01:04,470 --> 01:01:01,839 fail to realize the rich history 1196 01:01:05,910 --> 01:01:04,480 that we have uh quite often on these 1197 01:01:08,390 --> 01:01:05,920 television shows 1198 01:01:10,069 --> 01:01:08,400 uh much to the detriment of i think ufo 1199 01:01:12,870 --> 01:01:10,079 research they focus on the same 1200 01:01:14,309 --> 01:01:12,880 cases at infinite ad nauseam there's 1201 01:01:16,230 --> 01:01:14,319 only so many times we can hear about 1202 01:01:18,470 --> 01:01:16,240 bent waters or the phoenix lights or the 1203 01:01:19,750 --> 01:01:18,480 january 5th 2000 case that i personally 1204 01:01:21,510 --> 01:01:19,760 investigated 1205 01:01:22,789 --> 01:01:21,520 and not that they're not good cases 1206 01:01:25,030 --> 01:01:22,799 don't get me wrong 1207 01:01:27,750 --> 01:01:25,040 but these producers they always want to 1208 01:01:30,150 --> 01:01:27,760 focus on the sensational cases 1209 01:01:32,230 --> 01:01:30,160 but some of the most intriguing 1210 01:01:33,990 --> 01:01:32,240 information is buried in these obscure 1211 01:01:36,390 --> 01:01:34,000 reports that jan 1212 01:01:38,870 --> 01:01:36,400 has gathered going through military 1213 01:01:42,069 --> 01:01:38,880 archives going through scrapbooks 1214 01:01:43,670 --> 01:01:42,079 and you know one case is fascinating but 1215 01:01:45,750 --> 01:01:43,680 i think when we make an argument for the 1216 01:01:48,069 --> 01:01:45,760 reality of the ufo phenomenon 1217 01:01:50,230 --> 01:01:48,079 we're looking at patterns in the data 1218 01:01:51,109 --> 01:01:50,240 and in in so doing you have to go 1219 01:01:53,990 --> 01:01:51,119 through 1220 01:01:55,190 --> 01:01:54,000 the minutia of government files 1221 01:01:57,910 --> 01:01:55,200 scrapbooks 1222 01:01:59,670 --> 01:01:57,920 newspaper archives and to me it's when 1223 01:02:01,109 --> 01:01:59,680 you start connecting those dots and you 1224 01:02:02,069 --> 01:02:01,119 start to show there's patterns in the 1225 01:02:04,630 --> 01:02:02,079 data 1226 01:02:05,990 --> 01:02:04,640 that is what's most intriguing and 1227 01:02:07,430 --> 01:02:06,000 myself and other researchers 1228 01:02:09,510 --> 01:02:07,440 couldn't do that without the efforts of 1229 01:02:11,910 --> 01:02:09,520 people like jan aldridge 1230 01:02:13,029 --> 01:02:11,920 right right hey hey jen um we're going 1231 01:02:14,870 --> 01:02:13,039 to be we'll 1232 01:02:16,630 --> 01:02:14,880 uh go back and engage with where you 1233 01:02:20,069 --> 01:02:16,640 were talking about the foo fighters 1234 01:02:21,109 --> 01:02:20,079 in in a bit um but while dave's here uh 1235 01:02:23,109 --> 01:02:21,119 have you ever 1236 01:02:25,349 --> 01:02:23,119 been really discouraged you know he just 1237 01:02:26,870 --> 01:02:25,359 mentioned how you've hung in for decades 1238 01:02:28,870 --> 01:02:26,880 but i

just 15 minutes 1273 01:04:14,309 --> 01:04:13,440 15 seconds after you hear something you 1274 01:04:19,190 --> 01:04:14,319 can 1275 01:04:22,390 --> 01:04:19,200 explanation 1276 01:04:26,230 --> 01:04:22,400 um you know beyond me 1277 01:04:28,789 --> 01:04:26,240 uh it it's unscientific 1278 01:04:30,069 --> 01:04:28,799 right right i have no explanation for 1279 01:04:33,109 --> 01:04:30,079 ufos i'm sorry 1280 01:04:35,190 --> 01:04:33,119 i don't and that's that's a lot of 1281 01:04:38,829 --> 01:04:35,200 experience there 1282 01:04:39,990 --> 01:04:38,839 i've read thousands and thousands of 1283 01:04:43,270 --> 01:04:40,000 reports 1284 01:04:45,750 --> 01:04:43,280 and many of them are just trivial 1285 01:04:47,670 --> 01:04:45,760 but there's so many that aren't there's 1286 01:04:48,390 --> 01:04:47,680 enough that aren't that makes it look 1287 01:04:51,910 --> 01:04:48,400 like 1288 01:04:53,349 --> 01:04:51,920 something needs to be done well as i've 1289 01:04:56,710 --> 01:04:53,359 heard many times 1290 01:04:59,349 --> 01:04:56,720 said that it only takes one real case 1291 01:05:00,710 --> 01:04:59,359 you know one whatever wherever they're 1292 01:05:02,549 --> 01:05:00,720 coming from i mean 1293 01:05:04,630 --> 01:05:02,559 um you know i mentioned on this show 1294 01:05:06,470 --> 01:05:04,640 quite often i this is my ninth year 1295 01:05:09,510 --> 01:05:06,480 doing the show i know less 1296 01:05:10,309 --> 01:05:09,520 than i did before i started you know i 1297 01:05:12,549 --> 01:05:10,319 mean 1298 01:05:13,910 --> 01:05:12,559 maybe i thought i knew something but i i 1299 01:05:15,510 --> 01:05:13,920 yeah we don't 1300 01:05:18,230 --> 01:05:15,520 right that's run the other way from 1301 01:05:21,349 --> 01:05:18,240 someone who knows everything 1302 01:05:25,109 --> 01:05:21,359 ted bloacher who's worked for csi 1303 01:05:28,789 --> 01:05:25,119 uh new york he he said 1304 01:05:31,349 --> 01:05:28,799 after being in it for uh decades he said 1305 01:05:34,069 --> 01:05:31,359 i uh this is where i came in it's like 1306 01:05:35,750 --> 01:05:34,079 coming into a movie you've already seen 1307 01:05:37,510 --> 01:05:35,760 but you still don't understand what's 1308 01:05:41,109 --> 01:05:37,520 happening 1309 01:05:45,430 --> 01:05:41,119 so yeah that's fascinating 1310 01:05:47,829 --> 01:05:45,440 so uh dave back to you are you going to 1311 01:05:49,589 --> 01:05:47,839 i mean you just keep getting more files 1312 01:05:53,029 --> 01:05:49,599 and more files 1313 01:05:54,870 --> 01:05:53,039 are you do you have a lot of property no 1314 01:05:56,470 --> 01:05:54,880 actually i i was remarking to jan on the 1315 01:05:58,630 --> 01:05:56,480 phone just the other day that uh we're 1316 01:06:02,150 --> 01:05:58,640 running into a square footage issue here 1317 01:06:03,430 --> 01:06:02,160 uh short of building an underground 1318 01:06:03,990 --> 01:06:03,440 bunker i'm not quite sure what we're 1319 01:06:07,029 --> 01:06:04,000 going to do 1320 01:06:09,190 --> 01:06:07,039 but uh a bad idea we may allocate we may 1321 01:06:12,150 --> 01:06:09,200 allocate some of my holdings to 1322 01:06:13,670 --> 01:06:12,160 unm uh before my death rather than after 1323 01:06:16,710 --> 01:06:13,680 my death just to accommodate 1324 01:06:18,230 --> 01:06:16,720 uh the influx of some very exciting 1325 01:06:21,270 --> 01:06:18,240 materials let me just say that 1326 01:06:21,910 --> 01:06:21,280 in the next week or two and uh jan's a 1327 01:06:24,950 --> 01:06:21,920 big part of it 1328 01:06:26,630 --> 01:06:24,960 nothing to say about it if he doesn't 1329 01:06:30,829 --> 01:06:26,640 allocate the materials to you 1330 01:06:32,470 --> 01:06:30,839 uh university of new mexico he may be 1331 01:06:34,309 --> 01:06:32,480 dead 1332 01:06:35,670 --> 01:06:34,319 yeah they're chopping at the bit for 1333 01:06:37,190 --> 01:06:35,680 this information they're they're they 1334 01:06:39,910 --> 01:06:37,200 really want to preserve this and 1335 01:06:40,950 --> 01:06:39,920 uh they see historical value as does jan 1336 01:06:42,710 --> 01:06:40,960 and myself 1337 01:06:44,549 --> 01:06:42,720 with regard to this information 1338 01:06:46,230 --> 01:06:44,559 regardless of your take on it and that's 1339 01:06:48,069 --> 01:06:46,240 how i pitched it to him whether you 1340 01:06:49,670 --> 01:06:48,079 relegate you know ufos to fact fiction 1341 01:06:51,109 --> 01:06:49,680 or folklore it's part of our history 1342 01:06:53,029 --> 01:06:51,119 it's part of our culture 1343 01:06:54,549 --> 01:06:53,039 and just by virtue of that we should be 1344 01:06:56,390 --> 01:06:54,559 preserving this material whether you're 1345 01:06:57,910 --> 01:06:56,400 a sociologist that wants to look back on 1346 01:06:58,710 --> 01:06:57,920 the 20th century and say it's a space 1347 01:07:01,430 --> 01:06:58,720 age myth 1348 01:07:03,270 --> 01:07:01,440 which i doubt um i agree with jan 1349 01:07:03,990 --> 01:07:03,280 there's just a preponderance of cases 1350 01:07:07,190 --> 01:07:04,000 that defy 1351 01:07:07,910 --> 01:07:07,200 conventional explanation and um you know 1352 01:07:11,029 --> 01:07:07,920 i 1353 01:07:12,950 --> 01:07:11,039 does the most 1354 01:07:15,109 --> 01:07:12,960 unscientific people that have approached 1355 01:07:17,750 --> 01:07:15,119 this subject historically with rare 1356 01:07:19,190 --> 01:07:17,760 exceptions are scientists 1357 01:07:21,270 --> 01:07:19,200 they're making assumptions they're 1358 01:07:24,549 --> 01:07:21,280 making proclamations based on no 1359 01:07:27,109 --> 01:07:24,559 evidence and i would task them what i 1360 01:07:29,670 --> 01:07:27,119 tasked myself and other ufo researchers 1361 01:07:31,109 --> 01:07:29,680 with and that is whatever we say 1362 01:07:34,309 --> 01:07:31,119 whatever we promote 1363 01:07:36,710 --> 01:07:34,319 or put forth as a working hypothesis 1364 01:07:38,309 --> 01:07:36,720 it has to be data driven you have to 1365 01:07:41,510 --> 01:07:38,319 back it up with something 1366 01:07:43,430 --> 01:07:41,520 and i i relegate the skeptics 1367 01:07:45,990 --> 01:07:43,440 just as much as i relegate the the the 1368 01:07:48,549 --> 01:07:46,000 arden wide-eyed ufo believers 1369 01:07:50,069 --> 01:07:48,559 when you accept everything without any 1370 01:07:51,990 --> 01:07:50,079 critical thinking skills 1371 01:07:53,270 --> 01:07:52,000 it's just as bad as those that refute 1372 01:07:54,630 --> 01:07:53,280 everything without taking the time to 1373 01:07:56,710 --> 01:07:54,640 look at the evidence 1374 01:07:58,789 --> 01:07:56,720 exactly right i relegate all of that to 1375 01:08:00,309 --> 01:07:58,799 what i call cognitive laziness 1376 01:08:01,829 --> 01:08:00,319 you're not using any brain cells in 1377 01:08:05,190 --> 01:08:01,839 either case 1378 01:08:06,950 --> 01:08:05,200 yeah and you know um what is that saying 1379 01:08:09,829 --> 01:08:06,960 never underestimate 1380 01:08:11,510 --> 01:08:09,839 um the power of i hate to use this word 1381 01:08:12,870 --> 01:08:11,520 but never underestimate the power of 1382 01:08:15,910 --> 01:08:12,880 stupid people 1383 01:08:17,910 --> 01:08:15,920 well i mean yeah 1384 01:08:21,110 --> 01:08:17,920 yeah not to put to find a point on it 1385 01:08:23,030 --> 01:08:21,120 but yes i think that that's good 1386 01:08:24,709 --> 01:08:23,040 you know i'm not looking at this as a 1387 01:08:26,709 --> 01:08:24,719 religion i'm not looking at this 1388 01:08:27,910 --> 01:08:26,719 as i'm finding evidence to support my 1389 01:08:31,749 --> 01:08:27,920 preconceived beliefs 1390 01:08:34,309 --> 01:08:31,759 belief system like jan would agree 1391 01:08:36,870 --> 01:08:34,319 the vast majority of ufo reports can be 1392 01:08:38,870 --> 01:08:36,880 discounted as venus as a satellite as a 1393 01:08:40,709 --> 01:08:38,880 jet aircraft you name it and many of 1394 01:08:41,590 --> 01:08:40,719 those have been proven false over the 1395 01:08:43,829 --> 01:08:41,600 years you know 1396 01:08:45,590 --> 01:08:43,839 especially as we realized that there was 1397 01:08:47,269 --> 01:08:45,600 military testing in certain areas at 1398 01:08:48,550 --> 01:08:47,279 certain times that you know when pilots 1399 01:08:50,070 --> 01:08:48,560 in the 50s said 1400 01:08:51,990 --> 01:08:50,080 we saw something but it was flying 1401 01:08:54,149 --> 01:08:52,000 faster and higher than any aircraft 1402 01:08:55,910 --> 01:08:54,159 we knew of well that's that's the the 1403 01:08:56,870 --> 01:08:55,920 operative phrase right there that they 1404 01:08:58,950 --> 01:08:56,880 knew of 1405 01:09:00,390 --> 01:08:58,960 uh they didn't know about the sr-71 they 1406 01:09:01,749 --> 01:09:00,400 didn't know about the u2 and in 1407 01:09:03,829 --> 01:09:01,759 retrospect 1408 01:09:05,430 --> 01:09:03,839 again which is why we have the value of 1409 01:09:07,349 --> 01:09:05,440 having these historic files 1410 01:09:09,430 --> 01:09:07,359 we can go back and maybe summarily 1411 01:09:11,669 --> 01:09:09,440 discount some of those reports 1412 01:09:14,070 --> 01:09:11,679 but to jan's earlier point there are 1413 01:09:15,829 --> 01:09:14,080 those that are extraordinary 1414 01:09:17,349 --> 01:09:15,839 there are those that have extreme high 1415 01:09:19,269 --> 01:09:17,359 strangeness 1416 01:09:20,870 --> 01:09:19,279 especially the radar visual cases and 1417 01:09:22,470 --> 01:09:20,880 there are a lot of those going back to 1418 01:09:25,749 --> 01:09:22,480 the 50s and 60s 1419 01:09:27,430 --> 01:09:25,759 to me that that is some severe 1420 01:09:28,789 --> 01:09:27,440 uh information that we're dealing with 1421 01:09:30,470 --> 01:09:28,799 when you have multiple military 1422 01:09:32,229 --> 01:09:30,480 witnesses both ground and air based and 1423 01:09:33,349 --> 01:09:32,239 you have ground and air based radar that 1424 01:09:37,189 --> 01:09:33,359 confirms it 1425 01:09:38,950 --> 01:09:37,199 um so yes there are so many cases that 1426 01:09:41,510 --> 01:09:38,960 have never been discussed publicly 1427 01:09:42,789 --> 01:09:41,520 and as jan was alluding to to me the 1428 01:09:44,630 --> 01:09:42,799 other day some of these 1429 01:09:46,229 --> 01:09:44,640 micro films that he's sending me and 1430 01:09:47,829 --> 01:09:46,239 i'll let him speak to that if he if he 1431 01:09:50,149 --> 01:09:47,839 likes a little bit but 1432 01:09:51,590 --> 01:09:50,159 some of these have never been digitized 1433 01:09:52,550 --> 01:09:51,600 they've never never been widely 1434 01:09:54,149 --> 01:09:52,560 circulated 1435 01:09:56,229 --> 01:09:54,159 and that's our shared goal is to try to 1436 01:09:56,630 --> 01:09:56,239 get this material digitized and shared 1437 01:09:59,830 --> 01:09:56,640 with 1438 01:10:02,070 --> 01:09:59,840 the ufo community at large now 1439 01:10:04,149 --> 01:10:02,080 jan let me ask you this because dave 1440 01:10:07,510 --> 01:10:04,159 just made a good point 1441 01:10:10,390 --> 01:10:07,520 when there's radar evidence and there's 1442 01:10:11,350 --> 01:10:10,400 actual visual evidence um i've brought 1443 01:10:13,910 --> 01:10:11,360 this thing up 1444 01:10:15,030 --> 01:10:13,920 for instance when i had seth shaw stack 1445 01:10:18,229 --> 01:10:15,040 who you

answer 1449 01:10:26,550 --> 01:10:24,400 oh well that's a weather anomaly or or 1450 01:10:28,470 --> 01:10:26,560 this or that you always hear 1451 01:10:30,790 --> 01:10:28,480 no matter you know for instance the 1452 01:10:31,910 --> 01:10:30,800 nimitz case they had all different types 1453 01:10:34,550 --> 01:10:31,920 of radar 1454 01:10:35,350 --> 01:10:34,560 data and uh discounting it all is you 1455 01:10:38,149 --> 01:10:35,360 know 1456 01:10:41,189 --> 01:10:38,159 this or that what do you say to people 1457 01:10:43,669 --> 01:10:41,199 like that when you hear that jen 1458 01:10:45,990 --> 01:10:43,679 well it's you know they never engage 1459 01:10:48,149 --> 01:10:46,000 with me that much 1460 01:10:49,189 --> 01:10:48,159 you know especially producers that put 1461 01:10:51,990 --> 01:10:49,199 together shows 1462 01:10:54,070 --> 01:10:52,000 they usually you know they don't tell 1463 01:10:55,830 --> 01:10:54,080 you who's going to be on with you 1464 01:10:57,750 --> 01:10:55,840 and who's going to be who's going to get 1465 01:11:00,310 --> 01:10:57,760 the last word 1466 01:11:01,110 --> 01:11:00,320 yeah i mean always changes on the 1467 01:11:03,750 --> 01:11:01,120 cutting room 1468 01:11:05,990 --> 01:11:03,760 i did i did two uh cases for the 1469 01:11:09,750 --> 01:11:06,000 smithsonian 1470 01:11:10,229 --> 01:11:09,760 and uh

producer did i 1477 01:11:28,470 --> 01:11:25,360 didn't necessarily do the best cases 1478 01:11:30,790 --> 01:11:28,480 like the incident of firing on a ufo in 1479 01:11:32,870 --> 01:11:30,800 the

01:12:19,040 the dr alvarez is definitely uh 1500 01:12:23,350 --> 01:12:21,920 one of the top science radar scientist 1501 01:12:26,149 --> 01:12:23,360 ever 1502 01:12:27,669 --> 01:12:26,159 and his complaint about the data that he 1503 01:12:31,270 --> 01:12:27,679 was shown 1504 01:12:37,430 --> 01:12:31,280 at the robertson panel was i don't care 1505 01:12:39,830 --> 01:12:37,440 what the operator felt i don't care 1506 01:12:42,229 --> 01:12:39,840 you know if they said they've never seen 1507 01:12:43,990 --> 01:12:42,239 anything like this before 1508 01:12:47,990 --> 01:12:44,000

01:13:16,640 should just go ahead and 1518 01:13:19,669 --> 01:13:18,880 brush all this stuff aside instead of 1519 01:13:22,709 --> 01:13:19,679 what we 1520 01:13:25,990 --> 01:13:22,719 to say we need more and better data 1521 01:13:30,950 --> 01:13:26,000 on ufos not we need to 1522 01:13:35,990 --> 01:13:33,910 right right dave do you mind hanging out 1523 01:13:37,910 --> 01:13:36,000 with

01:13:47,199 this question um because i know a lot of 1530 01:13:49,669 --> 01:13:47,600 people 1531 01:13:50,790 --> 01:13:49,679 visit you and want to look at your uh 1532 01:13:52,390 --> 01:13:50,800 your files and stuff 1533 01:13:55,189 --> 01:13:52,400 what's the number one thing people want 1534 01:13:57,910 --> 01:13:55,199 to see when they when they come there 1535 01:13:58,310 --> 01:13:57,920 as well it varies considerably and and 1536 01:14:00,390 --> 01:13:58,320 that's 1537 01:14:01,830 --> 01:14:00,400 uh i was just mentioning to someone the 1538 01:14:04,390 --> 01:14:01,840 other day on the phone that uh 1539 01:14:05,110 --> 01:14:04,400 whenever i acquire material regardless 1540 01:14:07,189 --> 01:14:05,120 of my 1541 01:14:10,229 --> 01:14:07,199 like or dislike of it for example let's 1542 01:14:13,270 --> 01:14:10,239 say like 50s contact d material 1543 01:14:15,590 --> 01:14:13,280 i collect it because i don't know 1544 01:14:17,110 --> 01:14:15,600 to your question what someone's going to 1545 01:14:17,830 --> 01:14:17,120 be interested in researching when they 1546 01:14:19,350 --> 01:14:17,840 come here 1547 01:14:21,270 --> 01:14:19,360 uh now certainly they'll contact me 1548 01:14:23,030 --> 01:14:21,280 ahead of time and say i'm working on 1549 01:14:24,149 --> 01:14:23,040 this do you have anything yes you know 1550 01:14:27,030 --> 01:14:24,159 come on by 1551 01:14:27,990 --> 01:14:27,040 but i i will tell you it's it's usually 1552 01:14:30,070 --> 01:14:28,000 what they come away with 1553 01:14:31,590 --> 01:14:30,080 is not what they came here to look for 1554 01:14:34,950 --> 01:14:31,600 because when they walk through the door 1555 01:14:37,750 --> 01:14:34,960 and they see the volume of material it's 1556 01:14:39,189 --> 01:14:37,760 a deer in the headlights and inevitably 1557 01:14:40,870 --> 01:14:39,199 they get distracted they think that they 1558 01:14:42,709 --> 01:14:40,880 want to look at this over here 1559 01:14:44,630 --> 01:14:42,719 but then this file cabinet or this 1560 01:14:46,709 --> 01:14:44,640 collection of case files totally 1561 01:14:47,910 --> 01:14:46,719 captivates them and they wind up taking 1562 01:14:49,270 --> 01:14:47,920 their entire weekend 1563 01:14:51,750 --> 01:14:49,280 going through all that and they didn't 1564 01:14:53,030 --> 01:14:51,760 even touch on this and inevitably people 1565 01:14:53,750 --> 01:14:53,040 say well i'm going to have to schedule 1566 01:14:55,189 --> 01:14:53,760 another visit 1567 01:14:56,790 -->

trash dumpster because the family was 1606 01:16:08,790 --> 01:16:06,960 throwing it away 1607 01:16:10,229 --> 01:16:08,800 and jan had the opportunity jan was out 1608 01:16:11,510 --> 01:16:10,239 here about a year and a half ago and he 1609 01:16:12,470 --> 01:16:11,520 had a chance to go through some of that 1610 01:16:14,550 --> 01:16:12,480 material 1611 01:16:16,390 --> 01:16:14,560 but we

01:36:12,639 naval intelligence during the battle of 2051 01:36:18,870 --> 01:36:15,040 los angeles 2052 01:36:22,870 --> 01:36:18,880 and the navy said in its history 2053 01:36:26,470 --> 01:36:22,880 the incumbent in 1941 2054 01:36:28,390 --> 01:36:26,480 was admiral anderson 2055 01:36:29,830 --> 01:36:28,400 the problem with that is they didn't 2056 01:36:31,750 --> 01:36:29,840 talk about all the other 2057 01:36:33,189 --> 01:36:31,760 officers that had been head of naval 2058 01:36:36,229 --> 01:36:33,199 intelligence so 2059 01:36:40,070 --> 01:36:36,239 cooper was caught 2060 01:36:43,750 --> 01:36:40,080 making up a fake document saying that 2061 01:36:49,510 --> 01:36:43,760 anderson was head of naval intelligence 2062 01:36:56,149 --> 01:36:51,430 and he was tripped up by the navy and 2063 01:37:03,830 --> 01:37:01,590 so that was that's one way to check 2064 01:37:05,350 --> 01:37:03,840 check check it check it against what you 2065 01:37:08,550 --> 01:37:05,360 know 2066 01:37:12,109 --> 01:37:08,560 now uh gordon cooper said 2067 01:37:17,030 --> 01:37:12,119 he wrote himself into uh 2068 01:37:21,270 --> 01:37:17,040 1957 filming of a ufo at uh 2069 01:37:24,310 --> 01:37:21,280 at uh 2070 01:37:26,629 --> 01:37:24,320 edwards air force base 2071 01:37:27,990 --> 01:37:26,639 well we interviewed the guys that filmed 2072 01:37:34,550 --> 01:37:28,000 the ufo they said 2073 01:37:37,910 --> 01:37:36,550 he didn't take the film and send it to 2074 01:37:40,149 --> 01:37:37,920 the pentagon 2075 01:37:41,910 --> 01:37:40,159 and it was never seen again that didn't 2076 01:37:45,189 --> 01:37:41,920 happen 2077 01:37:49,590 --> 01:37:45,199 so unfortunately gordon cooper 2078 01:37:52,870 --> 01:37:49,600 a hero astronaut 2079 01:37:56,629 --> 01:37:52,880 was the end of his life he he 2080 01:37:59,669 --> 01:37:56,639 he got into these things where 2081 01:38:02,149 --> 01:37:59,679 he would make strange claims and write 2082 01:38:06,149 --> 01:38:02,159 himself into history 2083 01:38:14,870 --> 01:38:09,189 not correct uh cooper 2084 01:38:18,950 --> 01:38:14,880 uh endorsed daniel fry a contactee 2085 01:38:21,990 --> 01:38:18,960 in his book uh leap of faith 2086 01:38:26,070 --> 01:38:22,000 so even though we 2087 01:38:29,109 --> 01:38:26,080 we should honor cooper's service 2088 01:38:31,350 --> 01:38:29,119 at the end of his life he had he 2089 01:38:33,189 --> 01:38:31,360 he had come around to with some strange 2090 01:38:37,350 --> 01:38:33,199 beliefs 2091 01:38:38,950 --> 01:38:37,360 and he's not the only one and there's 2092 01:38:41,910 --> 01:38:38,960 there's people that write themselves 2093 01:38:48,870 --> 01:38:41,920 into situations and 2094 01:38:48,880 --> 01:38:53,830 and it's it's tragic in some cases 2095 01:39:01,510 --> 01:38:57,189 general vandenberg supposedly 2096 01:39:03,830 --> 01:39:01,520 uh uh sent back the uh 2097 01:39:05,030 --> 01:39:03,840 uh estimate of the situation 2098 01:39:07,669 --> 01:39:05,040 [Music] 2099 01:39:08,550 --> 01:39:07,679 uh in 1948 no there's nothing that says 2100 01:39:14,550 --> 01:39:08,560 that 2101 01:39:16,070 --> 01:39:14,560 it's hard to find stuff on the uh 2102 01:39:20,070 --> 01:39:16,080 estimate of the situation 2103 01:39:22,390 --> 01:39:20,080 but you can't say that 2104 01:39:24,149 --> 01:39:22,400 rupell only says that it went up the 2105 01:39:26,790 --> 01:39:24,159 chain of command 2106 01:39:29,030 --> 01:39:26,800 everybody thinks a lot of people in 2107 01:39:30,310 --> 01:39:29,040 ufology think the chain of command at 2108 01:39:34,310 --> 01:39:30,320 that time 2109 01:39:37,350 --> 01:39:34,320 for wright-patterson air force base 2110 01:39:40,870 --> 01:39:37,360 was the intelligence chain 2111 01:39:44,070 --> 01:39:40,880 no it was the uh logistics 2112 01:39:47,350 --> 01:39:44,080 research and development chain 2113 01:39:49,109 --> 01:39:47,360 and since they can't find anything in 2114 01:39:50,229 --> 01:39:49,119 intelligence they're not looking in the 2115 01:39:54,229 --> 01:39:50,239 right place 2116 01:39:57,590 --> 01:39:54,239 they should look for a hints of uh 2117 01:40:01,990 --> 01:39:57,600 where things happen for the uh 2118 01:40:05,270 --> 01:40:02,000 for the uh estimated situation 2119 01:40:06,229 --> 01:40:05,280 in the uh in the logistics research and 2120 01:40:09,990 --> 01:40:06,239 development chain 2121 01:40:14,310 --> 01:40:10,000 of command also uh 2122 01:40:25,430 --> 01:40:17,990 an analysis of uh 2123 01:40:31,750 --> 01:40:29,830 conclusion of the estimated situation 2124 01:40:33,669 --> 01:40:31,760 it's not based on the estimated 2125 01:40:37,030 --> 01:40:33,679 situation it's based on the 2126 01:40:42,470 --> 01:40:37,040 project sign interim report 2127 01:40:45,510 --> 01:40:42,480 of 30 november 1948 2128 01:40:48,950 --> 01:40:45,520 which we do not have we do not have that 2129 01:40:50,550 --> 01:40:48,960 but in the navy analysis he quotes from 2130 01:40:56,470 --> 01:40:50,560 that document 2131 01:41:03,109 --> 01:41:00,149 some information about this 2132 01:41:04,390 --> 01:41:03,119 it's like a detective story now i've 2133 01:41:07,430 --> 01:41:04,400 tried to get 2134 01:41:10,629 --> 01:41:07,440 the november 30th 2135

microfilmed 2255 01:47:23,030 --> 01:47:20,320 the library of congress microfilm them 2256 01:47:25,590 --> 01:47:23,040 under an air force contract 2257 01:47:27,109 --> 01:47:25,600 that's uh another thing that most people 2258 01:47:30,550 --> 01:47:27,119 don't know about so 2259 01:47:32,870 --> 01:47:30,560 this is about four microfilms of 2260 01:47:35,189 --> 01:47:32,880 uh sightings that not are not 2261 01:47:36,870 --> 01:47:35,199 necessarily in the file so that's why 2262 01:47:39,750 --> 01:47:36,880 dave was saying well we need to get this 2263 01:47:42,310 --> 01:47:39,760 microfilm uh 2264 01:47:48,149 --> 01:47:42,320 digitized so we can add these to our 2265 01:47:54,790 --> 01:47:51,270 in the middle of the 2266 01:47:58,229 --> 01:47:54,800 counting committee uh 2267 01:48:02,070 --> 01:47:58,239 work that the 2268 01:48:05,109 --> 01:48:02,080 memo was that trick memo was found 2269 01:48:05,910 --> 01:48:05,119 where it says the trick of this is to 2270 01:48:09,990 --> 01:48:05,920 make it look 2271 01:48:12,550 --> 01:48:10,000 like uh us as a group of scientists who 2272 01:48:15,669 --> 01:48:12,560 don't really expect to find anything 2273 01:48:19,750 --> 01:48:15,679 are doing an objective work 2274 01:48:23,430 --> 01:48:19,760 um a lot of people 2275 01:48:24,470 --> 01:48:23,440 seized on that as this whole thing is a 2276 01:48:28,709 --> 01:48:24,480 trick 2277 01:48:35,990 --> 01:48:32,229 they decided to end their cooperation 2278 01:48:37,910 --> 01:48:36,000 with the condon report uh 2279 01:48:39,590 --> 01:48:37,920 even though connor wasn't doing that 2280 01:48:41,910 --> 01:48:39,600 much i mean 2281 01:48:43,430 --> 01:48:41,920 if you look at the number of reports 2282 01:48:47,350 --> 01:48:43,440 that 2283 01:48:50,950 --> 01:48:47,360 uh nycap submitted to condon 2284 01:48:51,910 --> 01:48:50,960 you know when actually when the things 2285 01:48:53,910 --> 01:48:51,920 were going on 2286 01:48:56,310 --> 01:48:53,920 just a few days before they would you 2287 01:49:00,070 --> 01:48:56,320 know submit all these reports 2288 01:49:02,550 --> 01:49:00,080 that they were getting and like uh 2289 01:49:03,430 --> 01:49:02,560 dick hall said at the i think it was the 2290 01:49:06,950 --> 01:49:03,440 76 2291 01:49:07,990 --> 01:49:06,960 mufon meeting he had a he had

01:49:22,880 sightings they don't look like you know 2299 01:49:28,390 --> 01:49:26,639 night lights or something seen at a far 2300 01:49:29,669 --> 01:49:28,400 distance they're all things that are 2301 01:49:31,750 --> 01:49:29,679 close 2302 01:49:33,350 --> 01:49:31,760 and he says here's uh here's the picture 2303 01:49:37,189 --> 01:49:33,360 here's the drawings from the 2304 01:49:39,589

01:49:46,950 --> 01:49:44,960 look at yeah and they're just uh 2308 01:49:48,070 --> 01:49:46,960 fascinating to look at the sketches and 2309 01:49:51,510 --> 01:49:48,080 say 2310 01:49:54,550 --> 01:49:51,520 jeez what what's the story behind this 2311 01:49:56,470 --> 01:49:54,560 and of course the stories at the in the 2312 01:49:59,350 --> 01:49:56,480 kufos files because they got the 2313 01:50:02,550 --> 01:49:59,360 nightcap files 2314 01:50:05,189 --> 01:50:02,560 uh so wow so 2315 01:50:05,910 --> 01:50:05,199 you know just from what i'm gathering is 2316 01:50:08,390 -->

is just not deeply researched by your 2320 01:50:16,629 --> 01:50:13,360 average 2321 01:50:18,709 --> 01:50:16,639 person looking into the topic right 2322 01:50:20,629 --> 01:50:18,719 right the people that i respect are the 2323 01:50:23,990 --> 01:50:20,639 ones that go out and 2324 01:50:26,310 --> 01:50:24,000 try to figure out what happened 2325 01:50:30,310 --> 01:50:26,320 in the field and actually go to where 2326 01:50:32,950 --> 01:50:30,320 the guy saw the sighting and 2327 01:50:34,790 --> 01:50:32,960 get a get a halfway decent interview and 2328 01:50:37,830 --> 01:50:34,800 get him to fill out a report 2329 01:50:41,430 --> 01:50:37,840 for him these are real 2330 01:50:44,070 --> 01:50:41,440 important actions and it may be drudge 2331 01:50:46,149 --> 01:50:44,080 work for a lot of people but 2332 01:50:47,910 --> 01:50:46,159 you have you have to admire the the 2333 01:50:50,830 --> 01:50:47,920 investigators uh the uh 2334 01:50:51,990 --> 01:50:50,840 on the scene investigators that go out 2335 01:50:54,149 --> 01:50:52,000 there 2336 01:50:55,270 --> 01:50:54,159 um oh yeah they're volunteering their 2337 01:50:58,470 --> 01:50:55,280 time and 2338 01:51:01,430 --> 01:50:58,480 yeah and you know trying to look into 2339 01:51:03,030 --> 01:51:01,440 a plausible explanation explanation for 2340 01:51:04,470 --> 01:51:03,040 what happened 2341 01:51:07,030 --> 01:51:04,480 yeah you know they would have landed 2342 01:51:11,430 --> 01:51:07,040 more years about what happened 2343 01:51:14,229 --> 01:51:11,440 but uh after a while after you read some 2344 01:51:17,350 --> 01:51:14,239 of the investigations by these people 2345 01:51:19,830 --> 01:51:17,360 you can you can get a uh 2346 01:51:21,430 --> 01:51:19,840 a feeling for uh
