- Flying Triangle Evidence
-
- The Space Shuttle is no longer flying due to the apparent
complexity of the craft and errors in management that have lead to the
crash of two shuttles. Conversely, we have received over one hundred UFO
reports each week for the last ten years, and can conclude that a very
sophisticated and reliable technology is flying in our skies and in space.
Many scientists claim UFOs do not exist, yet they have never examined
the data, examined the radar tapes, nor even talked to the eye witnesses.
Some of the greatest and most intelligent people on Earth have been eye
witnesses to UFO technology that is far beyond anything known to exist
in our technology. A new exciting world is available to those who will
examine this evidence. Common among hundreds of reports are Flying Triangles
that hover or fly at extremely low altitude at 100 to 200 feet above highways
and buildings. These craft operate well below the minimum flight rules
for the safe operation of aircraft and are of ten reported by police for
over twenty years. They also create a road safety hazard. They are described
as having rounded wing tips with bright intense lights on each corner,
usually with a large red light in the center. They make little or
no sounds. They hover and then depart at high speeds. Today, in a terrorist
environment these craft could also present a terrorist threat and should
be reported to Homeland Security and NORAD.

- Saturn Cassini Satellite Sees Lights

-
-
- R. David Anderson writes, I have been comparing Saturn
Cassini Images # 00007211 and Cassini Image # 00007442 that JPL received
on July 22, 2004. This bright object has moved thousands of miles
in a short time. There are many other interesting images sent back
to JPL from Cassini near Saturn. You can change the image number(s) yourself...
in order to see other images of this object above and near Saturn.
-
- "Of course NASA will come up with another explanation
for these pictures like dust specks, cosmic rays, flaw in optics, and the
like. They may have a more difficult time explaining this one because the
object will be in one frame and then not even be in the next
frame, and moves radically in the next frame all the way to
the bottom". A large fast moving lighted object in space
would appear to have its own propulsion system. See the following web site
for numerous JPL images showing movement.

- Two More Planets Found
-
- US astronomers say they have found two more Neptune-sized
planets orbiting stars beyond our Solar System. Dr Geoff Marcy, of the
University of California states, "I expect we'll find dozens
of planets between 10 and 20 Earth masses in the next few years and we
are poised to find true Earth-sized worlds!" This is a breakthrough
in finding smaller planets in the search for life in space. The new planets
are only 15 times more massive than the Earth down from Jupiter-class,
that are 318 times more massive than the Earth. One of the new planets
is in the first four-planet system ever discoveredWell over a hundred planets
have now been located outside the solar system and there may be hundreds
of Earth's just waiting to be found relatively close to us.

- Life Came From Space
-
- Astrobiologists are examining what could be evidence
of extraterrestrial microfossils inside a meteorite that fell to France
140 years ago. The Orgueil meteorite, a type of space rock known as a
carbonaceous chondrite, has long sparked questions about potential traces
of life from space. NASA astrobiologist Richard Hoover shared his research
team's preliminary findings that samples showed what appeared to be fossilized
traces of cyanobacteria within the soft rock. Biologists have come
to believe that life might have gotten its start in Earth's oceans
in the form of cyanobacteria - but to find such traces in a rock
that apparently spent millions of years in space rather than in water
came as a surprise. Any scientist's first thought would be that the
biological structures were the result of earthly contamination, but
Hoover said the structures' composition argues strongly against that.
"The organic matter contains isotopes that absolutely could not be
from terrestrial contamination," he said.

- East Coast High Altitude Anomaly
-
- MUFON's Kim Shaffer reports, "At 8:35 PM, a strange
high altitude anomaly was seen over most of the Rast coast on August 31,
2004, including by persons in Tennessee. Preliminarily, reports have been
received by Peter Davenport and myself from most Eastern states..
-
-
- The anomaly was spotted by this witness at about the
same time which indicates that it was at an extreme altitude and probably
in space. Most descriptions of the object were generally the same, a white
concentric body with four wing like structures and a flashing strobe white
light affixed to the end.
-
-
- MUFON Tennessee analysis indicates this was a classified
military cargo using the last Atlas 2 rocket ever to fly successfully
delivering a U.S. reconnaissance satellite into space and ending a chapter
in rocket history. The flight also marked the last time a rocket would
liftoff from pad 36A at Cape Canaveral. However, a rocket with a strobe
light and a launch over the US seems questionable? Thanks to Kim

- New York - Four Objects Fly in a Circle
-
- STATEN ISLAND The witness was traveling south on
Hylan Boulevard on August 24, 2004, at 10 PM, when he sited four white
objects which took on an appearance of the light of advertising lights
on this hazy evening. They were traveling southeast about 40 mph and were
playing a game like ring around the rosé. They would come together
in the center, touch, and then go back out again. They continued to travel
separately, in a circle and then come together and touch, and then go back
out. They did this ten or twelve times. He states, "I followed them
for as long as I could, about a mile or so until the end of the road where
it is pretty deserted. The lights continued until I lost sight of them.
I got the impression a couple other cars were also watching what I saw.

- Pennsylvania UFO Effects TV
-
- POTTSTOWN -- It was about 2:30 AM, on August 10, 2004,
and the non cable TV channels kept getting very fuzzy. The witness noticed
a strange flying object with different colors. He states, "When I
ran to my window, I saw three yellow lights in a row with the middle one
a little bit lower than the other two." The object was making the
TV go haywire with loud static, and a humming noise. The object was going
straight up, not on a slant like airplanes. I called all the airports
in my area and there were no airplanes flying at that time. When the UFO
was over my house my TV's went crazy then as soon as it was gone they came
back to normal operation. Thanks to Peter Davenport Director www.hbccufo.com

- South Carolina - Teardrop and Hovering Triangle
-
- GREENVILLE At 11:15 PM, the witness was heading
east on I-185 on August 23, 2004, when he saw four white lights, about
1.5 the brightness of Venus in a line that was a distance of about 1.5
the diameter of a full moon. A fifth light was in back of the four lights.
About half way between the single light, and the middle of the four lights
there was one red light slightly brighter than the white ones. He exited
onto I-85 south and turned around and went back to try and find a place
where he could stop his car. The object was moving very slowly south parallel
to I-85 about 65 degrees up. From this angle there were two white lights,
the same distance apart as the farthest of the line of four and there was
a red light, about 1/4 the diameter of the moon above the middle of the
white lights. I watched it for about a minute and looked back and it was
gone. It is possible that it flew into a cloud. He turned around again
but it had disappeared. <http://www.hbccufo.com/>www.hbccufo.com
-
- TEGA CAY -- It was 5:45 PM, on August 23, 2004, when
I noticed what looked to be a black teardrop shaped object flying low over
the tree line. It was a was cloudy afternoon and the object was moving
sideways in a straight and unaltered path. It had no wings, no lights,
and was not shaped as such. At first, he thought it was a large balloon,
that was not very large. It was not moving with the slight breeze, because
it was moving so straight. It seemed to move quickly, but not nearly as
fast as an airplane, such as a bush plane. I am not sure what it was, since I
am not experienced in this type of situation. but it was quite unusual.

300 yards from the camera by George Ritter near his home. George
Ritter can reproduce his video in his backyard laboratory on a regular
basis. I encourage universities to examine this fantastic technology.
Researchers are flying in from Sweden and Germany, but few in the US seem
interested. I drove to Ohio and visited with George and watched him video
tape. We did not see the craft, but high speed UFOs were on the video.
There were also comparatively slow moving insects and birds. Low

- Michigan Flying Triangle
-
- ANN ARBOR --On Thursday, August 19, 2004 at around 10
PM, the observer was driving home on the M-14 Expressway when he noticed
a large bright object just over the trees up ahead. As he got closer, he
saw three large circles with a flashing orange circle in the middle of
a triangular pattern. He states, "I was the only car on the westbound
side of the expressway so I slowed way down to around 15 mph to observe
an object flying at 200 feet in altitude and just past the Gotfredson exit
about fifty yards off the expressway. As I got closer and was more directly
under it, I noticed that the intense lights were attached to the structure
of a triangular shaped object that was slightly darker than the night sky.
It probably wasn't more than 30 feet deep. The lights did not throw any
reflection up to the structure and had no reflective properties at all.
Even the ground below was not lit up by any light. With as bright as these
lights were and how close it was to the ground, I couldn't understand why
nothing was lit up?
-
- This flying triangle was large about the size of a 747
or so. The ends of the triangle were blunted, they were not sharp. The
object made no noise as it hovered over crop fields and woods. The craft
was staying stock-still. I watched the object for two more minutes and
it never moved. The only motion was the orange light blinking in the middle
of the three other lights. Thanks to Peter Davenport Director www.UFOCenter.com

- Wisconsin - Seven White Saucers in Formation
-
- OSHKOSH The observer reports he actually viewed
a live news broadcast on the local NBC news affiliate, WTMJ4 here in Milwaukee
on August 20, 2004 of a breaking story of an accident on I41 at the 4:30
report outside of Oshkosh and they had live footage from a helicopter.
The clock was 4:58 then turned 4:59 PM. "I was watching the footage
and noticed seven silver/white on the top and dark on the bottom, saucer
shaped objects fly in a 'V' formation across the bottom of the screen.
I have Tevo so I pressed record, because what I saw shocked me. My
husband and I later viewed the recording and were totally amazed and a
little freaked out. These objects were absolutely NOT birds or anything
else like that. At one point it almost looks as if one of them got too
close to another and sort of "bounces" off of the other, and
at times you can see the formation "adjusting". You can plainly
see that they are in between the helicopter and traffic that was backed
up from the accident on the ground. You can also tell that they are traveling
over at least 75 mph, because they are going faster than the traffic on
the highway below. I'm totally amazed and confused, and think you will
be too.

- Indiana - Teardrop
-
- NEW HAVEN The witness spotted what I thought at
first was an aircraft with its landing lights on approaching from the northeast
on August 24, 2004. It was going really fast and when he glanced up as
it passed behind him, he drove up a short distance and turned east when
he saw the craft again. It was going away from me flying in a straight
line and that's when I saw what lead me to believe it was UFO. It had two
sets of what looked like three windows on the back with a flashing red
light located where a plane's tailfin would be located. I lost it below
the horizon after it got past the treeline. I realized that this
object did not make a sound. My friend convinced me to report this sighting.

- Illinois Flying Triangles
-
- LAKE IN THE HILLS A network Computer Engineer for
twenty years and his chemist wife witnessed a triangular shaped object
moving across the sky on August 20, 2004, from10:25 to 10:27 PM. At first
glance it looked like three lights heading south. Then the flying triangle
flew right over their heads at a low altitude and its length was longer
than three large commercial aircraft. The witness looked at the flying
triangle (this object) through Tasco mini binoculars. The object had three
lights with one located on each corner. The object tilted toward the west
and then leveled off. The witness grew up in Elk Grove Village with a commercial
flight path over the top of my parents' home since I was two years old.
The witness states, "This was something that I have never seen before
and my wife agrees that this was the strangest object we have ever seen.
"The object only stayed in sight for three minutes and completely
vanished right in front of us in the partly cloudy sky." www.hbccufo.com
-
- CHICAGO -- A mother and daughter telephoned NUFORC, to
report that they had witnessed a very peculiar event from their 22nd-floor
apartment in downtown Chicago on August 20, 2004. Both witnesses reported
that they witnessed one, or more, bright lights, that "looked like
fireworks, but with no tail," moving toward their building. Suddenly,
the lights reportedly stopped, and turned into some type of unlighted ship,
hovering motionless in the night sky. The first ship appeared to "split"
into two seemingly similar-looking craft. Neither of the witnesses thought
she had ever seen a UFO before. NUFORC found these witnesses to be quite
sincere. `Thanks to Peter Davenport Director www.hbccufo.com

- Illinois - Veteran Teacher Remembers UFO Visit
-
- Len Wells, Courier and Press correspondent writes: Mount
Erie native Norman Massie dies at 91. He had taught school in Wayne County
for 37 years and once served as principal. While the folks in Southern
Illinois will remember Coach Massie for his many years in education, perhaps
the world will remember him for what he witnessed 81 years ago - when he
was just 10 years old. It was a warm day in June 1923 when he saw what
he was convinced until his last days was a spaceship. In a 1998 interview
with Norman, he told me, "I opened the gate to let the horses into
the pasture. I looked back down the field and there was an object with
lights all around it," Massie said. "I kept walking closer to
the object until I got about 50 feet away. I stood there and watched the
five men who were on board."
-
- I've heard Norman tell this story many times, and it
was always the same - never embellished from one time to the next. "The
machine was metallic and stood on three legs. The top was a dome with holes
in it. The best way I could describe the top was it looked like melted
glass," Massie said. "I got close enough that I could hear them
talk. One guy sat in a chair and the others called him the commander. Four
others made trips back and forth in the ship. I didn't know what was going
on until the end. Then, one of the crew members told the commander that
the repairs had been made." Massie said the whole experience lasted
about five minutes. In a matter of minutes, he said, it came to a hovering
position; the tripod legs telescoped up into the belly of the thing, went
straight up about 200 feet and whizzed off to the west like a bullet.
-
- Norman's mom and dad tried to convince him that he really
hadn't seen anything - that he had made the whole thing up. Then, in 1990,
he got up the nerve and told his son who served as a colonel in the Air
Force about the incident. "He told me there was nothing wrong with
me. He said the Air Force files are full of pictures of UFOs. He accepted
my story as the truth." Norman Massie was never afraid that people
might think he was a crazy old man for what he had seen. "In my own
mind and my own heart, it existed and I saw it with my own two eyes."
Norman is gone now. He leaves his wife, four children, seven grandchildren,
13 great-grandchildren and a remarkable story from his childhood. His story
has traveled around the globe, and is still shared by those who remain
convinced we've received visitors from other planets.

- New Mexico - Metallic Orange Lights
-
- SILVER CITY -- On August 21, 2004, two brothers witnessed
two brilliant orange metallic lights flying side-by-side over the Silver
City Mountains at 9 PM, for thirty minutes. We are at an altitude of 6,000
feet and the lights were higher and just to the west of the mountains.
Looking through binoculars the lights were solid with no other lights in
or around them. The two lights behaved like the Phoenix lights, fading
in and out for some thirty minutes and appeared in three locations. The
lights did not behave like flares and there were also aircraft in the vicinity.
Stars and a half moon were also visible. Thanks to Peter Davenport Director

- AZTEC - Debra Mayeux/The Daily Times writes, As
research continues into the infamous, yet unproven Aztec UFO crash of 1948,
a Canadian film company has released the first full-length documentary
about the event. The Aztec Public Library, sponsor of the annual Aztec
UFO Symposium, recently received a copy and plans to premiere it at 7 p.m.
Thursday at Aztec City Hall. "This video elevates the story to a
national level of discussion," said Leanne Hathcock, librarian and
founder of the symposium. It was her research, along with the help of North
Carolina resident Scott Ramsey, that led to a renaissance of interest in
the purported crash in March 1948 in Hart Canyon north of Aztec. Ramsey
has completed countless hours of research and successfully declassified
material pertinent to the incident. "We're working very hard in trying
to identify two law enforcement officers at the scene, and at the same
time trying to be respectful to the families," Ramsey said. New Mexico
and UFOs have become synonymous since the surging popularity of the Roswell
crash in July 1947, but Aztec is coming into its own, according to Hathcock
and Ramsey. "I think the documentary puts Aztec in a positive light,"
Ramsey said. The film begins with a view of San Juan County's high desert
landscape and film producer Paul Kimball telling the story of Aztec.
-
- It was a quiet evening north of the county seat, when
an oil well fire broke out on a mesa above Hart Canyon. The fire led people
to something much more interesting - a crashed UFO containing charred bodies,
Kimball tells in the story Ramsey continually attempts to verify. Snip

- The witness states, "I heard them and ran outside,
but I just missed them in the zoom lens, when I looked up directly overhead
I saw two round saucer-like objects that actually looked like the 'logo'
from Japan Airlines and I know this sounds crazy but it looked like a Star
Trek Klingon Vessel with a see through ring around it." There
was actually a white "glow"around them. One of them was
doing loops around the other. I called for my wife to come out and she
saw them flying circles around each other as they faded from view. I've

- LOS ANGELES -- My wife and I were driving south on Highway
5 on August 9, 2004, at five minutes to midnight between Stockton and Bakersfield.
At 23:55 pm, I noticed a white light that I assumed was an airplane climbing
at a steep 45 angle as during take off. The craft then changed direction
and dove toward the ground at a 45 degree angle, stopping five feet from
the ground and hovering. The craft was about 200 feet away from us across
the north bound lanes. The craft was shaped like a Stingray with three
white lights on the top. My wife first saw the maneuvers and the stingray
shape with three white lights. Two were at the outside flippers and one
light was at the nose in front. My wife heard a jet engine making acceleration
and deceleration noises, but I did not hear them. The craft was the size
of a normal passenger car. Other cars in the north bound lanes got a better
view. Thanks to Peter Davenport Director <http://www.hbccufo.com/>www.hbccufo.com

as the lights stayed in the same formation as it moved from north and then
south across the night sky. I lost sight of it after about 5 minutes as
it appeared to move into space. Thanks to Peter Davenport Director www.hbccufo.com

- Mexico - Six UFOs
-
- TAPACHULA -- Six luminous spheres flew over the Mexicanos
Pemex Petroleum Storage Facilities on August 29, 2004. The Disaster
Prevention Officer, Juan Carlos Zuñiga Rodríguez said, "Six
large spheres having the shape of a circular plate, the size of a commercial
airliner, performed flight maneuvers over the distribution terminal at
an altitude no greater than 1000 meters flying at abnormal speeds and direction
changes." A variety of photographs were taken and showed at least
six luminous spheres flying over the area. This data was presented to researcher
Jaime Maussan, who immediately commenced verification of the images. He
stated. "The tests yielded positive results regarding a central object
made of unidentified material, and which appeared to be covered by some
sort of radiation very similar to that of the spheres." UFOs are frequently
seen around the oil facilities and points adjacent to the Izapa archaeological
region, close to where the "Tree of Life, Creation of the Universe"
stele is located. Thanks to Scott Corrales, Institute of Hispanic Ufology

- NIAGARA (ST CATHARINES) -- I want to report a UFO sighting
in the Niagara Falls region on Monday August 30, 2004, around 11PM, I was
on the piers in Port Dalhousie fishing when I noticed a white and purple
rectangular shaped craft over St. Catharines. I first noticed the UFO when
it appeared to be over Lake Street heading east at extremely fast speeds.
It went from the Lake street area to south of Port Weller in 4 to 5 seconds
at a descending angle stopping at maybe 800 to 1000 feet. It then performed
unbelievable movements up , down and right and left eventually descending
south and appeared to land in the region close to the Niagara Airport.
Although, there was an air show last weekend, this was nothing close.

- MANCHESTER The observer was sitting in the garden
and heard a loud airplane noise on August 7, 2004, at 3:30 PM, but was
unable to see anything at first, then he noticed a silver, oval shaped
aircraft overhead. The oval was going at quite a speed, realizing
it couldn't possibly be an aero plane. The object carried on flying, then
suddenly stopped, hovered for a few seconds, then, darted very fast to
the left and hovered for a while. It then went right and went back to
where it had started and then just vanished. It was an extremely clear
day with not a cloud in the sky, so the whole incident was very clear to
see. Thanks to Peter Davenport Director www.hbccufo.com

- Philippines Red UFOs
-
- LAS PIÑAS CITY Two unusual reddish-metallic-glares
were observed flying east across partly cloudy skies. Another two, followed
by three more appearing from above the western horizon. This unusual
sighting could not be mere airplanes, according to 11 year old Nica Canarias,
since two of those were seen heading close to the surface of the moon.
Nica, the eldest of the three Canarias' siblings who were among the early
witnesses, immediately commanded her younger brother, Bien Canarias to
summon 9-year old Adrian Israel, a close neighbor whom the kids knew well
as a UFO experiencer, whose father Antonio (Tony), incidentally had taken
a video footage of UFOs in Las Piñas from an earlier encounter dating
September 3, 2000. As the elder Jose was pointing to the object
his father Tony took his video camera and taped them. Tony was joined by
other neighbors who observed the objects moving erratically, jerking, floating
and jumping in different directions between 7:30 till 8:15 PM, Tony was
taking video footages of 5 UFOs as each passed by over the horizon at time
intervals of approximately 8 minutes per object, following one after the
other. This news is being featured over TV PATROL (August 30, 2004) Thanks

- Google Turns Author Over To Critic Chilling Effect
-
- Author Robert Trundle writes, "Google declares
how fair it is and how much it eschews censorship. For example, an image
of Robert Trundle's book UFOs: Politics, God & Science is posted at
Images. The Image site tells Robert that if a copyright owner wants an
image removed to follow the simple instructions by sending a detailed letter.
The letter is sent because it seems unfair that the image refers to a website
that ridicules his book and other book images are not shown that refer
to websites where it is not ridiculed . Then, Google displays the other
images of the book where it is not ridiculed. And then it takes the images
off except for the original image and sends the author an email that states
the original image cannot be removed. This seems like a form of censorship
so the author challenges that claim. Bingo, not only does the original
image alone remain but his letter gets posted on the website with the
alarmist headline Author Asks Google To Remove Link to Critic -- Chilling
Effects ... Not only does the word "Link" conflate the terms
"image" and "website" - misleading the reader to suppose
that the author is a mean spirited scoundrel who wants to suppress his
open-minded critics when in fact he was not requesting that his critic's
website be deleted but only the image when other images were censored.
-
- In addition, the website gives the false impression that
the anonymity of its victim is protected, on the outside chance there may
be facts about which it is unaware, by blocking out the author's name on
the letter sent to Google. But the author's name, of course, is exposed
under the headline. And in reply to the author's further complaint that
Google's removal instructions make no mention of turning the author's letter
over to Chilling Effects, Google replies how fair it is by asserting falsely
that it does refer to that website: Whoops, to a "third party."
The moral of the story is that a UFO debunker who links a silliness of
religious belief to a belief in UFOs, in a UFO magazine no less, gets publicity
while the author unfairly gets censored in a major news media organization.
Come to think of it, this is really no news. Thanks to Robert Trundle Ph.D.
