Robert Salas was one of the men on duty in 1967 that experienced a nuclear silo being shutdown. He was name dropped in the article so he's taken the time to author a rebuttal. He gives his perspective and I tend to think that we should probably read it as it's a good data point to add to the fray. X Post by Robert Salas linking to Google Doc.

Jews from Another Planet by Norma Zager “If we long to believe that the stars rise and set for us, that we are the reason there is a Universe, does science do us a disservice in deflating our conceits?” Carl Sagan As the year draws to its natural conclusion, I ponder about what subject might best close off a year fraught with the usual terror attempts, political battles, money problems and unfortunate, congressional bozo behavior that seems to color our lives nowadays. Checking out the worldly issues confronting us as we move ahead into the New Year seems rather mundane...

A tiny Pentagon office had spent months investigating conspiracy theories about secret Washington UFO programs when it uncovered a shocking truth: At least one of those theories had been fueled by the Pentagon itself. The congressionally ordered probe took investigators back to the 1980s, when an Air Force colonel visited a bar near Area 51, a top-secret site in the Nevada desert. He gave the owner photos of what might be flying saucers. The photos went up on the walls, and into the local lore went the idea that the U.S. military was secretly testing recovered alien technology. But the...

UFO researcher Rhys Dalton-Morgan, host of “The UFO Program” podcast, interviewed News Nation special correspondent Ross Coulthart last week about unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), the potential of an impending disclosure by certain governments and reports of a massive earth-changing event taking place in 2027. “There’s certainly something gonna happen in 2027, and I don’t know what it is. I’ve also heard 2034 and I’ve also heard other dates, much later,” Coulthart said. 🔥🚨 BREAKING: News Nation journalist Ross Coulthart claims that an apocalyptic event will happen in 2027: “Everybody’s telling me we’re on borrowed time” “I cannot begin to emphasize...

A retired NASA flight surgeon claims he saw footage of a 20-foot-wide flying saucer with a US Air Force logo performing advanced maneuvers in a military hangar over 30 years ago. Dr. Gregory Rogers, a former NASA Chief Flight Surgeon and Air Force Major, shared his story amid growing whistleblower reports about secretive UFO programs. “I know exactly what I saw that day, and it was in no fashion a conventional flying vehicle,” Rogers, 68, told the Daily Mail. In 1992, while stationed at Cape Canaveral, an Air Force major led him to a locked room and showed him CCTV...

As scientific discoveries bring humanity closer than ever to confirming the existence of intelligent extraterrestrial life, award-winning filmmaker, musician, and UFOlogist Mark Christopher Lee is making an urgent appeal to the newly elected Pope Leo: prepare the Catholic Church — and its global followers — for first contact. Lee, whose work on the intersection of spirituality, disclosure, and UFO phenomena has earned him a dedicated international following, warns that the world is on the verge of a transformational moment — one that could redefine our understanding of religion, science, and the human story itself. Snip... “With new data emerging from...

A witness to the unidentified aerial phenomenon (UAP) captured on camera aboard a US warship off the coast of Southern California is now speaking about his close encounter with the craft that he said emerged from the ocean.

As a novelist, I am prone to obsessions. These are what I call “creative outbursts.” And as strange or off-putting as my creative outbursts may be to my family and friends, I’ve learned to follow them. ... So yeah, I’ve learned to follow my creative outbursts, even if that means spending my hard-earned PTO at a UFO conference in Houston, which is what I did last weekend. This wasn’t just any old tin foil hat convention at a Hampton Inn; this was “The Archives of the Impossible!” hosted by Houston’s brainy little jewel, Rice University. The speaker list had more...

The long-awaited Blaze Star could erupt as a visible nova on March 27, 2025, lighting up the night sky in a once-in-a-lifetime cosmic show. ============================================================================== For the first time in nearly a century, Earth’s night sky may soon be lit up by one of nature’s rarest celestial events: a nova visible to the unaided eye.

Legendary comedian Howie Mandel recently captured footage of some UFOs filmed from the cockpit of a plane he was flying in over Texas. The "Deal or No Deal" host shared the remarkable video (seen above) on social media late last week, indicating that the sighting occurred as the aircraft was at an altitude of 45,000 feet. Although Mandel did not provide any additional insight as to the circumstances surrounding the odd event, the video does feature his narration of the incident and the amused response from the baffled pilot sitting alongside him.

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) called for the government to reveal what it’s spending taxpayer money on relating to Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) amid growing calls from lawmakers for increased transparency on the issue. “They’re spending tens of millions of dollars on this subject. And then they turn around tell us they don’t exist,” the Tennessee Republican told NewsNation’s Blake Burman on “The Hill” Friday. Burchett stressed the need for greater government transparency on extraterrestrial life while discussing the recent hiring of former intelligence officer and UFO whistleblower David Grusch by Rep. Burlison (R-Mo.). “I think he can help us ask...

President Trump said Monday that he’s preparing to release 80,000 Kennedy assassination files on Tuesday — a trove that’s expected to be pored over by history buffs and conspiracy theorists. Trump made the remark while visiting the Kennedy Center performing arts hub in Washington. It was not immediately clear if Trump was referring to files pertaining to the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy of the 1968 assassination of his brother, then-Sen. Robert F. Kennedy (D-NY). He also has ordered the release of files on Martin Luther King Jr.’s 1968 assassination. The long-hidden files may come as a let-down,...

"A gripping new UFO documentary just made its debut at SXSW this past weekend. The Age of Disclosure features interviews with 34 members of the U.S. government, military, and intelligence community, exploring claims of a long-standing cover-up surrounding alien life.

PHOENIX — On the night of March 13, 1997, thousands of Arizonans looked up and saw something they couldn’t explain—a massive, V-shaped formation of lights hovering in the sky. Twenty-eight years later, the Phoenix Lights remain one of the most infamous UFO sightings in U.S. history, fueling speculation, debate, and ongoing scientific curiosity. Among those who witnessed the phenomenon firsthand was Dr. Lynne Kitei, a former medical professional who was so profoundly impacted that she left her career in medicine to study the lights full-time.
