Unidentified Flying Threats (UFOs)
New York Times ^ | July 29, 2008 | Nick Pope

Posted on 07/29/2008 6:10:10 PM PDT by decimon

ON the afternoon of Nov. 7, 2006, pilots and airport employees at O’Hare International Airport in Chicago saw a disc-like object hovering over the tarmac for several minutes. Because nothing was tracked on radar, the Federal Aviation Administration did not investigate. Yet radar is not a reliable detector of all aircraft. Stealth planes are designed to be invisible to radar, and many radar systems filter out signals not matching the normal characteristics of aircraft. Did it really make sense to entirely ignore the observations of several witnesses?

On Dec. 26, 1980, for instance, several witnesses at two American Air Force bases in England reported seeing a U.F.O. land. An examination of the site turned up indentations in the ground and a level of radiation in the area that was significantly higher than ordinary. More witnesses at the same base reported the U.F.O. again on subsequent nights. The deputy base commander reported that the aircraft aimed light beams into the most highly sensitive area of the base — a clear security breach.

a large suitcase sized unit that would essentially run forever extracting energy from the quantum physics of reality or some such.

"Zero point energy. Pretty cool, huh?"

You mean, that’s not a cityscape on the horizon? :)

I've done some looking around, and found a higher res image with none of the artifacts present as in the other one. (It looks like all of the Apollo 11 images can be found here). Actually, I'm no expert, having toyed with photoshopping, but so many artifacts bunched up at the horizon line is strange. I wouldn't be a bit surprised that someone at NASA is having a little fun with all the conspiracy nuts who've for years claimed that there's "cities on the moon". (Not sure - was Hoagland one of them?)

That's a problem with NASA images spread all over the place - there needs to be one site where all the images are accessed. All the original negatives should be scanned at high resolution and offered, with no cropping whatsoever, as lossless .tif's, (or better yet, .png's), as well as .jpg's. They're not copyrighted, and shouldn't be, since we ultimately paid for them.

Maybe it's all moot, though. The whole moon landing phase was a hoax perpetrated in a tV studio somewhere.  :)

posted on 6/10/2006 @ 00:10 single this post “quote”REPLY TO:
Alien Abduction Experiences Don’t Be Too Graphic!

Here I go: Part 1, Part 2 to follow

I’m new here, and let me begin by saying, “This is the best board I have seen. I look forward to reading ya’lls experiences and it will be a relief to finally share mine.”

About Myself: I’m 45, female, married, 1 grandchild, live in Austin, Texas, paralegal, 2 dogs, 3 cats, am not on any medication, am considered very stable, am not under a Dr’s care. I haven’t written anything about myself in years, so please be patient with my rusty grammar and maybe it will come back with practice.

There are a few differences between what I experienced with the visitors and what I’ve read that ya’ll have experienced. It is not my intention to disavow anyone’s experiences or beliefs, simply, I am here to share, listen and learn.

I have had encounters with visitors as far back as 1 - 2 years old. I have conscious memory of many of them. Almost the classic abduction scenario, but not quite, my situation involved human looking visitors with a few greys in the background as their helpers. I didn’t float out any window, I walked with them out the door with my family frozen in place. As a child they didn’t blur my memories at all, when I was older they did.

I remember trying to tell my Mother about it, I would tell her about a black haired lady with very white skin and bright blue eyes wearing a bright red robe/cape that would come with two very skinny men and take me to a shiny metal ship in the woods. My vocab was very limited at that age, so to fill in the gaps I would point at objects for the colors I was referring to, for example: The lady was wearing, (I would point at a ripe tomato) that would mean red, and the two men looked like (I would point to stalks of celery) greenish white. That became the biggest joke in the house when my brother and sisters dubbed her the, “Tomato Lady” and teased me endlessly, “Watch out, the Tomato Lady is coming for you!”

I remember seeing my family frozen, the house going all silent, no cicadias outside, no crickets, me trying to wake them up, hit them, scream at them, and then giving up and hiding under my sister’s bed hoping they’d take her (she was a real brat). I realized after awhile that when it went silent I had at the most three minutes or so before they showed up so as I got older I tried my best to quickly get something to fight them with. I asked my brother to teach me how to use his sling-shot, he refused, I was too young he said, so I practiced with it while he was away with his friends and put it up before he came home. It didn’t work against the visitors but I did get a few decent shots at them. They would just walk over and scoop me up taking the shots. Another time I piled rocks by my bed and let them have it, that didn’t work either, they just moved forward and scooped me up again. And then finally my last attempt to fight them found me dragging the shot gun my parents kept under their bed out and I just couldn’t lift it. I gave up and jumped into the bed with my frozen parents, screaming and pounding on them, I couldn’t wake them.........so, what was I fighting so hard to avoid? Here goes: In the next post

RECOVERED PIECE OF A UFO—HARD EVIDENCE

ATS THREAD:

http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread320563/pg1


http://ufoevidence.conforums.com/index.cgi

Tests performed by MIT research associate Robert Golka and Larry Cekander, Lead Projects Coordinator at Museum of the Unexplained have created an intense interest with members of the scientific community to look at the Bob White Object with a more in depth study that wasn’t forth coming before the Neutron Bubble Chamber tests done in November of 2006 in San Diego.

Neutron Radiation should not be present in the object. The radiation exists. Many other things present in the metal shouldn’t be there either but the Thermal Neutron test is a definitive finding of off earth origins.


“I believe Bob White has the real hard evidence of extraterrestrial visitation,”says Franklin Carter, president of the Institute for UFO Research.
Scientist thinks some other academics who have examined the object might have deliberately tried to cover up the truth about it’s alien origins.

The Los Alamos report concluded the object was not a meteor but an unknown object of unknown origin.

Above link has photo of the recent object and I think a video.

Cheers.

Here’s a BLACKVAULT.COM government doc about a similar one from the 40’s.

in 1970-71 in the first part of Aug. they were still broadcasting live when the lem would land on the moon. This was maybe the 3rd. landing. The lem commander was looking out and kept saying “I have a boogie at 2 o’clock, I have a boogie at nine o’cock, I have a boogie at 4 o’clock” etc, Houston never said a word and I never heard anything of it again.

Or maybe he said 'bogie.' Is that audio available?

Bogie may be right. I don’t know of any audio. Means unidentified craft, anyway.
