-
- Integrity, honor, focus and tenacity, are just a few
words which accurately frame the character of Sgt. Clifford Stone, the
August 30th guest of the Jeff Rense on his Sightings program.
-
- The subject was UFOs and Sgt. Stone shared, with the
listening audience, an account of his 22-year military service in an elite
NBC (Nuclear Biological Chemical) response unit. Stone's was also pulled
from his unit and routinely sent out on secret assignments involving the
collection, retrieval, and transportation of downed UFOs, wreckage, and
their inhabitants.
-
- Marbled throughout his story were compelling project
names, dates, and information that anyone can investigate. I decided to
do just that and went on a search to see what I could find. The following
material suggests something extraordinary.
-
- Just after 2:04:00 in the Real Audio archive of that
broadcast, Sgt. Stone dropped a bombshell. He shared with Jeff and his
audience that the government has been aware of an orbiting object which
is "known" by the military to be an alien probe.
-
- The name of the probe was said to be "1991VG"
and Sgt. Stone went on to to say that it is officially classified as an
asteroid. I thought for a moment and decided if it was indeed classified
as an asteroid, and we knew it was there, then there might be some information
on it. I went on an immediate net search and was puzzled by what I found.
-
- I was able to locate a page at http://newton.dm.unipi.it/neodys.cat
which contained a plethora of orbital constituents of asteroids. I scrolled
down the list looking specifically for "1991VG." BINGO! There
it was about halfway down the list.
-
- I decided to look further and by back-spacing the neodys.cat
text from the URL I came to http://newton.dm.unipi.it/ , which is a page
that: "provides information and services for all Near Earth Asteroids."
On that page, I found a "search" option, and clicked on it. I
was then taken to a search engine and typed in the text "1991VG."
-
- The search engine took me to: http://newton.dm.unipi.it/cgi-neo/neoibo?quicksearch:0;search
and the page was filled with orbital information, observational information,
close approaches and a link to a page which would supply physical information.
At the bottom of this page I clicked on the link which read "1991VG
physical data." This link whisked me off to a page which contained
more data, the only piece of which I understood was the diameter of the
object. If I understand it correctly, the object has a maximum diameter
of 10 meters (33 Ft. Approx.)
-
- At the bottom of this page was a heading called "References."
I clicked on the link below which was: I.A.U.Circ. 5387. This is where
the information gets interesting...
-
- I ended up on a page: http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/iauc/05300/05387.html
which had a very interesting Email on it. It read as follows:

- The following orbital elements, by B. G. Marsden, are
remarkably
- similar to those of the earth. The minimum geocentric
distance
- is 0.0031 AU on Dec. 5.4 UT (H = 28.8). Geocentric solutions
yield
- e 3. The object might be a returning spacecraft.

- While I lack the understanding to comprehend the correlation
between the
- numbers shown, I do have the wherewithal to understand
the term at the end
- of the Email: "The object might be a returning spacecraft."
- <>
- The question is: What constituents of the Orbital Characteristics
of 1991VG,
- could draw Mr. Scotti to the conclusion that the object
could be a
- spacecraft of some sort? The Email provided with the
text is for:
- Astronomical Telegrams INTERNATIONAL ASTRONOMICAL UNION
Postal Address:
- Central Bureau for Astronomical Telegrams Smithsonian
Astrophysical
- Observatory, Cambridge, MA 02138, U.S.A. The next question
in all of this
- is: How did Sgt., Clifford Stone come to the understanding
that this was NOT
- an asteroid? How did Green? Who knew what, first?
- <>
- Lastly I did a search on Mr. Scotti. No, he's not some
kid with a keyboard
- nor a "foil hat" wearing flake. He is a Senior
Research Specialist in the
- Lunar and Planetary Lab, University of Arizona Office,
Space Sciences, Room
- 209.
- <>
- All just coincidence. Right? Don't bet your life on it!
- <>
- To be sure, this is not a search that will end any time
soon.
-
-
-
- Does 'asteroid' 1991VG perhaps look something like this?
