Dulce Base: A Brief History [ChatGPT & the xenologist]

Dulce Base is a highly controversial and mysterious alleged underground facility located in Dulce, New Mexico, USA. The base is claimed to be a joint collaboration between the United States government and extraterrestrial beings, and is believed to be involved in a wide range of secretive activities, including genetic experimentation, mind control, and interdimensional communication.

The first rumors about the existence of Dulce Base emerged in the late 1970s, when a man named Paul Bennewitz claimed that he had discovered evidence of an underground facility in Dulce, New Mexico, through his work in electronics and surveillance.The exact date of Paul Bennewitz's first report of the alleged Dulce Base is not entirely clear, as there are differing accounts of when he first became interested in the area and began his investigations. However, it is generally believed to have been in the late 1970s, possibly as early as 1978. The Air Force investigation of Bennewitz's claims began in 1980, and the results of the investigation were released in 1985. Bennewitz contacted Air Force officials to report his findings. The Air Force initiated an investigation, but ultimately concluded that Bennewitz's claims were unfounded and likely the result of mental health issues.Despite the Air Force's findings, Bennewitz's claims gained traction among UFO enthusiasts and conspiracy theorists. According to him, he had intercepted communications between the base and extraterrestrial beings, and had even observed UFOs flying in and out of the facility. His claims gained widespread attention, and soon attracted the interest of other ufologists, conspiracy theorists, and members of the media.

Over the years, the stories about Dulce Base have become increasingly elaborate and complex. Some sources claim that the facility is located deep underground, and that it consists of multiple levels and chambers connected by a vast network of tunnels and caverns beneath the ground, with multiple levels and sections dedicated to various operations and experiments. Others allege that the base is home to a variety of exotic technologies, such as advanced medical equipment, antigravity propulsion systems, sophisticated computer systems, advanced weaponry, and even time travel devices.

Dulce Base

One of the most persistent claims about Dulce Base is that it is involved in genetic experimentation and cloning. According to this theory, the government has been working with extraterrestrial beings to create hybrid creatures that combine human and alien DNA. These hybrids are said to possess extraordinary abilities, such as telepathy, telekinesis, and shape-shifting. So according to the Dulce Base theory, "Secure Dulce Biogenetics Lab" and "Nightmare Hall" are code names for sections of the underground facility. "Secure Dulce Biogenetics Lab" is said to be where genetic experiments are conducted on humans and extraterrestrial beings, while "Nightmare Hall" is said to be where these genetic experiments take place.

Another widely-circulated theory about Dulce Base is that it is responsible for a program of mind control and brainwashing. According to this theory, the base is equipped with advanced technologies that can manipulate the thoughts, emotions, and behavior of individuals, and that these technologies are being used to create a population of obedient, subservient citizens.

Despite the many claims about Dulce Base, there is little concrete evidence to support the existence of the facility. No official records or documents have ever been released by the government that confirm the existence of the base, and no one has ever produced physical evidence, such as photographs or videos, that definitively show its existence. Oddly enough Thomas Costello is a name associated with the Dulce Base conspiracy. According to the theory, Thomas Costello was a security officer who worked at the Dulce Base, and having claimed to have witnessed numerous disturbing events while working there.

Costello's story is often cited as evidence for the existence of the Dulce Base, but it's important to note that there is no concrete evidence to support his claims. The US government has consistently denied the existence of the base, and the details of Costello's story have been disputed by skeptics and debunkers.

It's also worth noting that there is no verifiable evidence that Thomas Costello even exists. No records of his employment or existence have been found, and no photographs or other evidence of his identity have been produced. As such, his story remains a controversial aspect of the broader conspiracy theory surrounding Dulce Base.

However, supporters of the Dulce Base theory argue that the lack of evidence is actually evidence in itself. They point to the high level of secrecy surrounding the base, and the fact that it is allegedly located underground, as reasons why it would be difficult to obtain proof of its existence.

In an interesting turn the Smith Corporation is another name that is sometimes associated with the Dulce Base conspiracy. According to the theory, the Smith Corporation was a cover organization that was involved in the construction and management of the Dulce Base facility.

There are also some versions of the conspiracy theory that suggest that the Smith Corporation had a connection to the town of Pagosa Springs, Colorado, which is located near Dulce. However, there is no concrete evidence to support these claims, and the details of the Smith Corporation's involvement with the Dulce Base remain a matter of speculation.

In conclusion, Dulce Base is a highly controversial and mysterious alleged underground facility that has captured the imaginations of ufologists, conspiracy theorists, and members of the media for decades. While there is little concrete evidence to support the existence of the base, the persistence of the rumors and claims suggests that it will continue to be a topic of speculation and debate for years to come.

Secretive North Korea Not So Secretive - North Korean DNS Now Public!

On Sept 19, 2016 at approximately 10:00PM (PDT), one of North Korea's top level nameservers was accidentally configured to allow global DNS zone transfers. This allows anyone who performs an AXFR (zone transfer) request to the country's ns2.kptc.kp nameserver to get a copy of the nation's top level DNS data. North Korea has a total of 28 Secret/Only For North Korean Sites

Some of the sites are failing to load but that's most likely because of excess users viewing what on there.

Argentina Created UFO Investigative Unit Shrouded in Secrecy

In Four Years, Commission for the Study of Aerospace Phenomena Identified Soccer Balls, Birds, Moon

Since he took office in December, Argentinean President Mauricio Macri has uncovered several boondoggles left behind by his predecessor, Cristina Kirchner. Examples of the Kirchners’ excesses include a derelict presidential palace and a party room for the vice president at a state bank.

CEFAE Insignia - Argentina

The latest discovery is a commission that Kirchner created in 2011 to investigate Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO’s). You read that right.

After four years of allegedly looking into the matter, the Commission for the Study of Aerospace Phenomena (Cefae) produced a flimsy 12-page report in December — when Kirchner left office — analyzing a grand total of 10 sightings. If you were wondering, none of them were alien spaceships.
Argentinean journalist Sebastián Tortora summed up the findings after years of trying to figure out what Cefae actually did:
1. One sighting compatible with the Rigel star (β Orionis).
2. Three standard aeronautical night lights.
3. The combination of the satellite Envisat, the International Space Station ISS Zarya, and “star β Grulla.”
4. A small soccer ball thrown at short distance from the camera
5. The planet Jupiter, its quadrant coordinates coinciding perfectly with the time, hour, and location reported by the witness.
6. A bird crossing in front of the camera.
7. A pair of lights from an antenna
8. The Moon, its quadrant coordinates coinciding perfectly with the time, hour, and location reported by the witness [photo taken in daylight, it should be pointed out]
9. [Believe it or not] a case without a single photo or video
10. A helicopter
With such results, it’s no surprise that the document, uploaded to an obscure army website, bears no signatures. Furthermore, it covers UFO’s reported by the population between 2014 and 2015, leaving what they did during the previous years covered in mystery.

Sadly for the Argentinean taxpayer, Cefae, which allegedly employs geologists, engineers, pilots, radar technicians, computer experts, and meteorologists, did not reveal its operating costs.

Local outlet Hoy argues that, while the commission “organized, coordinated, and methodically carried out investigations into the possible causes of unidentified objects in the national airspace,” the Kirchner administration proceeded to “dismantle” the Argentinean Armed Forces.

It also notes that Cefae became an appendix “of the San Martín National University (UNSM), which government officials — as former Planning Minister Julio de Vido and the indicted former Vice President Amado Boudou, for instance — used as a personal cash register.”

Under the Kirchner administration, UNSM inaugurated a degree in aerospace engineering, but Hoy claims that the AR$200 million (US$15 million) devoted to its funding was actually a screen to pay ruling party activists and to secure contracts for cronies.

In April 2012, one year after Cefae began its operations, officials claimed that “23 possible UFO sightings were under investigation.” They also said that they had received 102 complaints, 79 of which were discarded.

Tip of the Iceberg

Cefae is just one instance of the questionable use of public funds during the Kirchner administrations.
Last week, the Macri administration laid off 140 personnel at Military Industries, a state-owned firm under the Defense Ministry, after incoming officials discovered the army agency had a small news conglomerate: it ran a TV channel, a FM radio station, a newspaper, three magazines, and had 30 people allegedly proselytizing on Twitter.

Since 2011, Military Industries increased its payroll to 1,000 people. In Buenos Aires alone, it went from having 100 employees to 500.

The Macri administration suspects that Kirchner ran a “propaganda center” inside the facility, employing non-military personnel in social media, graphic design, journalism, and audiovisual production.

UFO truthers want to make Roswell an issue for 2016; meet their lobbyist

One day nearly 20 years ago, Stephen Bassett realized UFO abductees needed a lobbyist.

He had spent four months working for the Program for Extraordinary Experience Research out of a modest townhouse in Cambridge, Massachusetts, when he had the epiphany: He could continue his research with John Mack, the leading authority on the alien abductions, for the rest of his life - but it would never make a difference.

"It occurred to me that it wasn't a scientific problem, but a political one," he said. They could pile evidence of extraterrestrial encounters from the White House lawn to the moon, and no one would pay it any mind. What the issue needed was someone who could get the powers-that-be to listen.

 The alien issue was really heating up in 1996, what with the summer blockbuster "Independence Day," and Bassett worried someone else would get the same idea. So he quit his volunteer gig, piled his belongings atop his beat-up Mazda RX-7 and drove off to Washington.

"I get down there, and I file" the lobbyist papers, he recalled. "I'm the first one. Nineteen years later, I'm still the only one. I coulda taken my time."

 Bassett, a balding man with expressive eyes that seem to go from blue to green, has long had one goal: Get the government to admit it has been covering up proof of alien visits. It has been a lonely battle, but he is convinced the stars have finally aligned for his convoluted theory, which involves the Clintons, their longtime adviser John Podesta and a now-deceased billionaire.

"I want to see disclosure by the New Hampshire primary," he said brushing crumbs off his black dress shirt and purple tie during lunch at the National Press Club this month. "And I can make the case that it's going to happen."

Bassett was born in 1946 to a military family that moved all over the country. He read science fiction, built model planes, enjoyed the cheap bowling and milkshakes on the bases. His father rarely spoke to him and fought constantly with his mother. And Bassett struggled with obsessive-compulsive tendencies.

He entered Georgia Tech just as the United States was going to war in Vietnam. While he was able to avoid the draft, the conflict darkened his worldview. There were too many secrets being kept, he felt; his country seemed on a path to disaster.

After college, he spent a couple of aimless decades freelancing as a tennis pro and business consultant, subsidized by an inheritance from his father. Then, a book changed his life.

 It was called "Abduction: Human Encounters with Aliens," and unlike other literature on the subject, it was written by an acclaimed scholar: Mack, a Harvard psychiatrist with a Pulitzer Prize for Biography under his belt. Mack, who died in 2004, began his research as a skeptic, interviewing dozens of subjects that he at first assumed suffered from mental illness. In the end, he wasn't so sure.

CIA Posts 'X-Files' UFO Documents for Both Believers and Skeptics


The truth is out there, as Fox Mulder said on "The X-Files" — and the CIA invites you to read a little piece of it. But just enough to leave Mulder intrigued and his perennially skeptical partner Dana Sculley exasperated.

Likely to celebrate the long-awaited new season of the show, the CIA highlighted a few items from its recently declassified collection of UFO-related documents that it thought "both skeptics and believers will find interesting." The docs for believers range from translations of foreign UFO-related articles to memos admitting there were a few the CIA couldn't explain.

On the skeptical side, however, panels of experts shake their heads at the amateurish quality of investigations and suggest a nationwide debunking campaign to clear the air. "Psychologists familiar with mass psychology should advise on the nature and extent of the program," read one memo — something Mulder would find suspicious.

Overall, the documents, which date from the 1940s to the 1990s, show a fairly earnest effort to explain UFOs, which if they existed would be of as much interest to the CIA as to anyone else.

"It was interesting to note that none of the members of the Panel were loath to accept that this earth might be visited by any extraterrestrial intelligent beings of some sort, some day," read the summary of one UFO advisory panel. "What they did not find was any evidence that related the objects sighted to space travelers."

Why the mainstream media refuse to acknowledge UFOs

There’s no subject more ignored, shunned and discounted by the mainstream media than that of UFOs. 
 
It’s absolutely true (this refusal to report, that is) and for the life of me, I can’t understand why. The implications of the ostensibly deliberate disinterest are unfathomable not to mention those of a government cover-up. In fact, the prominent ufologist Stanton Friedman calls it in effect the Watergate of the millennium.

The subject of flying saucers represents a kind of Cosmic Watergate, meaning that some few people in major governments have known since July, 1947, when two crashed saucers and several alien bodies were recovered in New Mexico, that indeed SOME UFOs are ET. As noted in 1950, it’s the most classified U.S. topic.

And note, he unabashedly calls them flying saucers and not UFOs. How can this subject, the subject, the existence of extraterrestrial beings, especially now as the latest iteration of Star Wars breaks all box office records, be of no interest to the media? And moreover, as newsrooms are shuttered, as news resources are pared and slashed, as the current crop of journalistas are desperately shaking the bushes for something, anything, to report on or cover, how can the most fascinating subject that has captivated humans since time immemorial not be leapt upon with the usual ferocity?

A cursory review of the Internet reveals numerous countries along with the Vatican openly acknowledging the existence of UFO files and investigations. Do you mean to suggest there exist no enterprising media types who are unwilling to vouchsafe the fact of the investigations themselves without verifying or acknowledging the existence of alien life and interstellar adventure?

I’ve asked this question for years and renew my query, especially in view of one-time chief of staff to Bill Clinton and an outgoing advisor to Barack Obama, John Podesta and his confession this year as to his biggest regret, viz. not securing the disclosure of UFO files. RT’s Manila Chan and I discussed this very topic in The Year in Space: 2015.

Yahoo News reported that at a 2002 presser organized by the Coalition for Freedom of Information, Podesta spoke as to the necessity and importance of disclosing government UFO investigations to the public.

“It’s time to find out what the truth really is what’s out there,” he said. “We ought to do it, really, because it’s right. We ought to do it, quite frankly, because the American people can handle the truth. And we ought to do it because it’s the law.”

Why not jump on his words for that AHA! moment? Especially from the likes of the consummate White House insider. As this is a subject of great interest to me I provide the following opinion and educated hunch.

First, in full disclosure, I’ve never witnessed or viewed anything that I could or would remotely categorize as extraterrestrial, UFO-esque and/or the like. In fact, I never gave the subject much thought for most of my life, choosing instead to believe the oft-cited trope that folks who claim to have observed flying space critters were usually drunk, draft, hallucinating or combinations thereof. I’d laugh at the usual account of some hayseed roused from sleep in his double-wide only to be anally probed by some macrocephalic, almond-eyed central casting ET.

After all, the notion was preposterous. Right?
Wrong.

Enter the Internet and my road to Damascus moment. I happened upon the work of Mr. Friedman, a nuclear physicist and University of Chicago classmate of Carl Sagan, and immediately delved into the subject. I simply had no idea the amount of first-hand accounts, eyewitness testimony, reports and radar records, you name it, that comprised the repository of data. Not to mention the oft-yet misquoted Project Blue Book Special Report No. 14. Yes, No. 14! What about 1-13? Good question, but that’s for another time. But suffice it to say that as for the plenitude of data that you will find when you dip into this subject, the level of misunderstanding and disinformation is simply amazing.

Amazing when you consider the certitude employed by those who emphatically reduce the subject to mythology and folklore.

But what about the media and their reluctance and refusal to give any attention to the matter? Here are my suppositions, hypotheses and theories.

Institutional bias. The media reflect the world around us. They take no chances, buck no convention and challenge no public opinion. As far as they know, any suggestion as to the viability of the theory that aliens or extraterrestrial biological entities (EBEs) exist or have been spotted is a no-no. Similar to the notion of the conspiracy theory, these subjects represent a journalistic no man’s land and the unwritten rule is that if coverage of any form is had it will be in a jocular presentation, minimizing any suggestion of the story’s veracity or verity. In other words: It’s understood that it’s to be disregarded.

Scientific illiteracy. This represents the crux of scores of issues that are given short shrift or ignored altogether by an increasingly juvenescent newsroom. Newsers have been told that interstellar travel is pert near impossible for a host of reasons they’ve yet to verify or attempt to comprehend. Unimaginable distances, limitations on light speed are but a few. They’ve simply accepted what is to be excepted.

Blind acquiescence and patellar, Pavlovian governmental obeisance. The last thing your government would want is for there to be an acceptance of the notion that not only have we been visited (and are) but that evidence of such has been kept from the masses. And not because of the usual theory posited that we would run into the streets crazed and panicked à la the 1938 Mercury Theatre’s War of the Worlds, but because interstellar travel most probably involves a means of a locomotion source that didn’t involve chemical combustion such as antigravitic propulsion. And when petrochemical combustion in particular is not necessary, can you imagine the impact this would have on a world economy dependent on the petrodollar and petrocracies?

The dissolution of nationalism and the emergence of the “Earthling.” Just imagine what the world would look like reconfigured to think not as mini-jurisdictional borders such as countries or tribes, sects, religions and the like, but as a complete and contiguous assemblage of Earthlings. So long jurisdictional tiffs. Adios, religious disquietude. Toodle-oo, nationalism and sectarian identification. Hello, fellow inhabitants. “Kumbaya” meets “We are the world.”

Now, let me remind you what the media believe are critical and worthy of mention without surcease – Steve Harvey’s Miss Universe misfire, the latest viral video of a duck playing the piano and anything Donald Trump related. No, that’s front page. That’s the lead. But the umpteenth sighting of potential interstellar, extraterrestrial intelligent craft?! Nope. Not interested. They’re just too busy.

The Clintons are longing to find UFOs

If elected president, Hillary Clinton promises to tell the truth about the government’s secret work with space aliens — as if she’s capable of speaking the truth about anything.

Would Clinton investigate UFOs and Area 51 (the top-secret Air Force base in Nevada that fervid rumors call the home of the feds’ supposed alien investigations)? The question came in an interview with The Conway (NH) Daily Sun.

Her answer: “Yes, I’m going to get to the bottom of it. I think we may already have been [visited by aliens]. We don’t know for sure.”

Let’s wind that back. First instinct: Pander to the questioner. Second: Cover yourself with all the folks who know better. Third: Fudge to avoid getting pinned down by either side.

Not much different from her response on real issues — like her we’ll-get-to-the-bottom-of-Benghazi promise. (At least she didn’t try to blame an Internet video for flying saucers)

On top of that, Clinton hinted she might create a presidential task force to investigate Area 51.

This turns out to be a running thing for the Clintons. According to old-time Clintonite Webb Hubbell, Bill gave him a mission back in the ’90s, as Hubbell was becoming a top Justice Department official: “I want you to find the answers to two questions for me. One, who killed JFK? And two, are there UFOs?”

As The New York Post’s late, great Washington Bureau chief, Deborah Orin, later noted, “Hubbell describes his failure to find out about JFK and UFOs as a big regret when he had to resign” to plead guilty to bilking law clients back in Arkansas.

And Bill is still UFO-obsessed. Talking to Jimmy Kimmel last year, he said that meeting aliens “may be the only way to unite us in this incredibly divided world of ours. If they’re out there, we better think of how all the differences among people on Earth would seem small if we felt threatened by a space invader.”

Of course, he also probably figures they’d be willing to give big to the Clinton Foundation in exchange for having a few doors opened in DC.

Even the advent of extraterrestrials wouldn’t prompt the Clintons to change their ways.

The Dulce Underground Base: How Deep Does This Rabbit Hole Go?

We’ve all heard rumors of secret government underground facilities such as Area 51 or Cheyenne Mountain, but how many of these facilities could there be, and what is taking place at these bases that is so secretive?

Approximately 83 miles (or 134 KM) north-northwest of downtown Las Vegas, Nevada,  exists a top secret U.S. military installation dubbed by pop culture as Area 51 but insiders refer to it as Dreamland, the Nevada Test and Training Range, Watertown, Home Base, Homey Airport, or specific sites such as S-2, S-3 and the infamous S-4. 

The number 51 is only significant to land surveying, since the site exists in the dry bed of Groom Lake on grid square number 51 near the intersecting boarders of three counties in southern Nevada: Clark County, Lincoln County and Nye County. The nuclear testing site located just to the north is, for example, called Area 13, also named for the stretch of land it occupies.  Within grid square 51 is a6-by-10-mile block of land, at the center of which is a large air base the government will not discuss. This air base has the longest air traffic runway on planet Earth, but that’s just what is on the surface.

UFO mystery turns 50 in Mt. Pleasant Township village

A Recreation of the Kecksburg Incident
Jim Romansky waited 20 years before telling anyone that he was face-to-face with a UFO that crashed in the woods outside Kecksburg on Dec. 9, 1965.

“I didn't want to be a candidate for the hospital down the road,” said Romansky, 69, of Derry, a retired machinist who at 18, was one of the first firefighters on the scene. 

He'd do the same today, he said, with the 50th anniversary of the incident set to occur Wednesday.
“If a flying saucer lands in my back yard and little green men come out, I won't even tell my neighbor,” said Romansky, who was ridiculed by some Kecksburg residents who didn't believe anything happened that night. 

“Half of the town believes the UFO story, the other half doesn't,” he said.
For half a century that debate has split the town. 

Responder recalls iconic incident 

Romansky was a volunteer firefighter in Lloydsville when the siren went off that cold, wet night in December. He took off running the 200 yards from his house to the fire hall and jumped on a truck that was headed out. 

“We have a call at Kecksburg,” he was told. “Downed aircraft, somewhere on the ridge.”
Once there, his crew joined firefighters from a number of other companies who divided into teams to begin the search for survivors. 

“I expected to see a smashed-up airplane or wings,” he said. “There was nothing like that, I saw this huge piece of metal. There was no crater, it plowed right into the ground and left a trail.” 

The metal object, large enough for a man to stand in, had no windows or doors and included what Romansky described as hieroglyphics on the side. 

“I'm looking at it, what the heck is it? This is no airplane,” said Romansky, who got a few feet from the object but did not touch it. 

As about 8 or 9 firefighters looked it over, two men in trench coats, one carrying a square box, came over the hill. 

“You're ordered out of the area,” one of the men said. “It is quarantined.” 

“In my mind, in my heart, I know what I saw,” Romansky said. “Ain't nobody going to convince me different.” 

He has thought about that night a lot over the years. 

“I feel that I am part of history,” he said. “It's something major, a UFO crashed in Kecksburg.”
Ron Struble thinks the device was manmade. 

“Something we put up and lost or it came from overseas,” said Struble, 72, of Kecksburg.
Either way, “after 50 years, people have a right to know.” 

Story refuses to go away, journalist says former Trib reporter Robert Gatty had just returned to the office from covering a meeting when managing editor Tom Aikens Sr. called him over. 

“I have the story of the century for you,” Aikens said, laying out the details for his rookie reporter.
“I'm thinking ‘He's jerking my chain,'” said Gatty, 72. “This is some sort of rookie initiation.” 

He arrived in Kecksburg to find almost two dozen military personnel lined up around the site. 

“I went up to the first guy and said, ‘What's going on?' and he said, ‘Nothing,'” Gatty said. 

When it became clear he would not get access to the site, Gatty turned to townsfolk who were milling around nearby and found a few willing to talk. 

“They said it hovered and landed,” Gatty said. 

His story ran across the top of the front pages under the headline, “Unidentified Flying Object Falls Near Kecksburg, Army ropes off area.” 

“To me, it's just a great mystery, I love the story,” he said. “It's the story that won't let go.” 

And this is coming from a reporter who, admittedly, covered some other events of historical significance in the annals of American history, including the aftermath of the assassinations of Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr., along with the 1968 Democratic National Convention, for United Press International, Gatty said. 

Today, Gatty serves as editor-in-chief of Convenience Distribution Magazine, a publication of the Convenience Distribution Association, and as editor of HIV Specialist magazine, a publication of the American Academy of HIV Medicine. 

“Nothing has stayed with me like the Kecksburg story has,” he said. 

Gatty annually gets attention as the anniversary date of the iconic incident approaches, he said.
“I get calls every anniversary from TV, radio ... one program keeps playing on the History Channel, hell that one must have been recorded seven or eight years ago,” Gatty said. “I haven't got anything new to say, but I'm always asked.” 

Legend aids creation of fundraiser 

July marked the 10th annual installment of the Kecksburg Volunteer Fire Department's Kecksburg Old Fashion Days & UFO Festival at the fire company's grounds located at the intersection of Claypike and Route 982 in the township. 

Beyond debate is the benefit of the event as the organization's main fundraiser, said Duane Hutter, the department's president and a township supervisor. 

“It means a lot to the fire department, because it's how we (maintain) our equipment and our buildings,” he said. 

For the first time, several of the incident's witnesses attented a conference dedicated to reflecting on the happening. 

The witnesses discussed their experiences and conducted a question-and-answer session. 

Throughout the decades, many of those people faced much ridicule for testifying to what they claimed to have seen, according to Stan Gordon, a Greensburg resident and author and researcher of unidentified flying objects. 

Many of those Gordon interviewed were children or teenagers at the time and later, because of their professional positions, asked to remain anonymous, he said. 

Gordon presented an illustrated lecture discussing his 50 years of investigation of the case, and he screened excerpts from his award-winning video documentary, “Kecksburg: The Untold Story,” which focuses on interviews with area witnesses, he said. 

He also updated attendees on more recent reported UFO sightings, purported Bigfoot encounters and other happenings reported from around the area, he said. 

Visitors also encountered displays prepared by John Ventre, director of the Pennsylvania Mutual UFO Network; Fred Saluga, director of the West Virginia Mutual UFO Network; Jim Brown of jimsdestinations.com, a website devoted in part to paranormal studies; Brian and Terrie Seech of the Center for Cryptozoological Studies; Dave Dragosin, associate director of the Western Pennsylvania branch of the PA Bigfoot Society; Ryan Cavalline and Dave Rupert of The Legend Hunters; paranormal site investigators Cheryl Alsippi and Darlene Koedel; and Diane and Jim Trick of the Goosebumps Paranormal Society. 

“The money we raise is well used, and every dime goes to the fire department,” Hutter said.

UFO scares are the price we pay for secret missile tests, expert says

LOS ANGELES (Tribune News Service) — Missile tests like the one the Navy performed off the coast of Southern California on Saturday night present military officials with something of a conundrum. One the one hand, said Loren Thompson, a military analyst with the Lexington Institute, the military needs to give local aviation officials enough information as to the time and place of an upcoming test to ensure no planes are in the area.

But at the same time, the military is determined to keep tests shrouded in secrecy in order to thwart any efforts by potential adversaries – namely Russia and China – to monitor the missile launch and flight, Thompson said. The confusion and social media uproar that erupted Saturday night as a mysterious white cone of light coursed across the night sky is an unfortunate but necessary tradeoff, Thompson added.

The need for secrecy was all the more important given the type of weapon the Navy launched Saturday from a submarine, according to Thompson. The Trident II (D5) missile is a centerpiece of the U.S. military’s ability to deter a nuclear attack and modernizing the weapon is a top priority, he said. Knowing in advance that a Trident was going to be tested would give prying eyes, for example sailors on a Russian submarine positioned in the Pacific, the ability to gather valuable information, Thompson said.

Tracking its trajectory, speed, electromagnetic emissions and other characteristics in real time could provide insights into potential vulnerabilities, Thompson said. This is especially true during the first stage of flight, the “boost phase,” when the missile’s rockets are firing and the weapon is most susceptible to attack, Thompson added. “The Russians and Chinese would have great interest in finding ways to defeat this type of missile,” he said. Witnesses across Southern California and Arizona posted and reported seeing the light.

Many used hashtags such as #ufo and #comet as they speculated about its source. Video blogger Julien Solomita was on a rooftop parking lot in Van Nuys shooting traffic and sunset scenes when he looked up and saw a bright circle of light in the sky. He followed it with his camera and at one point, he said, it looked like it was exploding. “For a brief moment, when the cloud got bigger, I was wondering, ‘Should we run?’ It looked so close,” he said. Since it was posted, has gotten nearly 1.5 million views and has been widely circulated on social media, helping to set off a furious round of speculation – was it a UFO? A missile? A comet? Solomita says he’s still not satisfied with the official explanation.

 “I'm not 100% convinced I know what happened no matter what news channels are saying. I'm kind of remaining skeptical because we were there, and it was crazy,” he said. If it was a missile test, he said, the public should have been better informed. “Why do a missile test over the second largest city in the U.S. and not tell anyone? That's pretty wild,” he said.

The missile test, first reported by the San Diego Union-Tribune, was part of a scheduled, ongoing system evaluation, a Pentagon spokesman told The Times. Launches are conducted on a frequent, recurring basis to ensure the continued reliability of the system, the spokesman said.

China Enters The Search For ET With The Largest Telescope Ever Built!

Chinese scientists are constructing the world's biggest radio telescope, which will be more effective than any other at picking up weak messages from outer space that could be linked to intelligent life.
Assembly of the Five-hundred-metre Aperture Spherical Telescope, or FAST, began in July and is expected to be completed in 2016.

Once finished, the reflector dish of the telescope will be 500 metres in diameter, replacing Puerto Rico's Arecibo Observatory, only 300 metres in diameter, as the world's largest.

The wider the dish, the more effective the telescope becomes at picking up weak messages from outer space.

Nan Rendong, the chief scientist of the FAST project, told the Xinhua news agency: "A radio telescope is like a sensitive ear, listening to tell meaningful radio messages from white noise in the universe."

"It is like identifying the sound of cicadas in a thunderstorm."

Rather than sitting above ground, the telescope's dish is sunken into a natural bowl-shaped valley in China's Guizhou province.

The geography of the surrounding hills and the remoteness of the site mean that there will be less interference from Earth-based radio signals.

The dish will be suspended slightly above ground level by a series of strong pillars and cables, allowing operators to move it and listen in to noises coming from different parts of space.

Although the dish is huge, the scientists may have a long wait if they want to pick up on alien radio signals.

The SETI Institute, which leads humanity's search for extraterrestrial life, has never picked up any message that conclusively comes from an alien civilisation, despite having a number of Earth and space-based telescopes at its disposal.



However, even if aliens don't make contact, radio telescopes smaller than FAST have been used in the discoveries of new planets, comets and pulsars.

The construction of the telescope also represents a huge advance for China's native space programme.
Despite the country's peaceful explorations into space only beginning in the 1990s, they have already sent a human into orbit, and are currently planning the launch of a space station and a manned mission to the Moon, both scheduled to take place at some point in the 2020s.

The development of the telescope will allow Chinese scientists to have their own first-hand data and equipment, rather than having to rely on information supplied by foreign space telescopes.

Wu Xiangping, the director-general of the Chinese Astronomical Society, told Xinhua: "Having a more sensitive telescope, we can recieve weaker and more distant radio messages."

"It will help us to search for intelligent life outside the galaxy and explore the origins of the universe."

George Bush Senior on UFOs: "Americans Can’t Handle the Truth"

George H. W. Bush, George W. Bush and Jeb Bush (Left to Right)
ORLANDO, FL | Joined by his father George H. W. Bush and his brother George W. Bush during Jeb Bush’s latest fundraiser in Orlando this week, George Bush Sr left the large crowd of Jeb Bush partisans uneasy after responding to a question on UFOs by an activist/journalist which the answer took the crowd, and reporters, completely by surprise.

In hope of helping his son’s Jeb Bush struggling presidential campaign, George Bush Sr and former president George W. Bush have been campaigning behind the presidential candidate in hopes of bringing the Bush family’s name once again behind the Oval office, but some experts believe this kind of incident could cost him the race.
The man that asked the question has been identified as Adam Guelch, an active member of the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), which credits itself as being the world’s oldest and largest UFO phenomenon investigative body
During the fundraiser, a man in the crowd raised a strange question which led to an even more surprising response by the former president and CIA director. The man asked George Bush Sr when the US government would tell Americans the truth about UFOs, to which he responded: “Americans can’t handle the truth” before the questioning was briefly halted by organizers of the event.

Oddly enough, it is not the first time George Bush Sr has had a controversial opinion on the UFO subject as a similar incident occurred on March 7, 1988, during a trip to a George Bush for President Rally in Rogers, Arkansas.

The to-be president was then asked, in the advent that he became president, if he would tell Americans the truth about the existence of UFOs, to which Bush replied: 
“I am very careful in public life about dealing with classified information” he told the reporter.
James Adder, journalist for the Arkansas Globe at the time, also asked about Bush’s knowledge about the UFO phenomena, on behalf of which Bush answered: ” I know some. I know a fair amount” before ending the interview.

A loss of cognitive functions, believe experts

George Bush Sr which is in a frail state of health, might be suffering from a neurological disorder such as Alzheimer, which could explain his weird comment, believe some experts.

“At the venerable age of 91, it is quite normal to suffer from a loss of cognitive functions. Clear symptoms are a difficulty to express yourself coherently, loss of memory, dementia. This is possibly the root cause for the awkward comments” explains neurologist John O’Briar.

A Jeb Bush campaign spokesman told reporters George Bush Sr’s comments “did not reflect in any way the opinions of presidential candidate Jeb Bush” and that Jeb Bush supporters “are entitled to their own views on a variety of subjects”.

Edward Snowden Has An Idea Why We've Never Heard From Aliens

Whistle-blower Edward Snowden has some strong opinions on communications — even when those communications are coming from aliens.

The former intelligence-agency contractor turned fugitive was an unexpected guest on famous astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson's StarTalk podcast on September 18. And, inevitably, the two got to talking about extraterrestrials.

Snowden became an infamous household name in 2013 when he leaked classified documents divulging the government's top-secret mass-surveillance program, which involved collecting personal information on Americans via phone records without their knowledge.

When the news broke, the US charged him with theft and espionage, and he's now living in Russia where he has asylum.

But Tyson scored an interview with him in New York City. How? Snowden rigged a robot that he can control from Russia, and rolled right into Tyson's office at the Hayden Planetarium in New York with his face displayed on the screen.

The conversation turned to encryption and cybersecurity, but here's where an astrophysicist differs from a journalist: Tyson's line of questioning quickly turned to how encryption relates to communication with ... aliens.

Tyson asked Snowden if a highly intelligent alien civilization might be communicating with encrypted messages. And Snowden had an unsettling answer.

First, Snowden said, let's assume that most advanced societies eventually realize that they need to encrypt their communication in order to protect it. This could also be the reason why we've never heard from other civilizations — their messages may have just been melding into the background static of the universe.

Here's Snowden's full answer, from the StarTalk podcast:
So if you have an alien civilization trying to listen for other civilizations, or our civilization trying to listen for aliens, there's only one small period in the development of their society when all of their communication will be sent via the most primitive and most unprotected means.
So when we think about everything that we're hearing through our satellites or everything that they're hearing from our civilization (if there are indeed aliens out there), all of their communications are encrypted by default.
So what we are hearing, that's actually an alien television show or, you know, a phone call ... is indistinguishable to us from cosmic microwave background radiation.

So it could be possible there are alien messages constantly hitting our satellites, and we just don't recognize them because they're so heavily encrypted. (The cosmic microwave background radiation that Snowden mentions is thermal radiation throughout the universe left over from the Big Bang. It basically looks and sounds like static to us puny humans.)
 
Of course, that's assuming an alien civilization has the same security issues that we have here on Earth, and they need to worry about protecting their communication system from their alien governments, Tyson jokes.

Snowden agreed that aliens might be a little more politically sophisticated than us.

MQ-9 Reaper Shows Potential on Maritime Matters

An MQ-9 Reaper, armed with GBU-12 Paveway II laser guided munitions and AGM-114 Hellfire missiles, piloted by Col. Lex Turner flies a combat mission over southern Afghanistan. U.S. Air Force Photo
The Air Force’s MQ-9 Reaper drone has successfully flown night-time missions over the ocean and also teamed with fighter jets in a strike exercise off the Florida cost, Air Force officials said.

“This was the first demonstration that the MQ-9 could complete the full kill-chain in a maritime environment,” Lt. Col. Travis Norton, chief of the Joint Readiness Branch at the Joint Staff, said Monday at the Air and Space Conference outside Washington, D.C.



“They also integrated with other aircraft,” including the F-16 Fighting Falcon and the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter “in a maritime environment where the adversary was swarming boats,” he said. “And they worked together very effectively.”

One of the unmanned aircraft — known in Air Force parlance as remotely piloted aircraft, or RPA — zoomed out to “get the big picture of where all these boats were and pass it to the fighters,” while another determined who was friend and foe, Norton said.

The use of the drones sped up the kill-chain, he said.

The exercise represents the kind of teaming of RPAs with manned aircraft that the Air Force will be emphasizing in the short-term, according to Maj. Jason Willey, MQ-9 Branch Chief, RPA Capabilities Division, Intelligence Directorate.

The advances come as the Air Force prepares to retire the MQ-1 Predator, which evolved since its inception from flying reconnaissance missions to strike operations. Today’s MQ-9 — a bigger version of the Predator — wields Hellfire missiles and is routinely used to carry out strike airstrikes.
In the future, the Air Force plans to use RPA transports and aerial refuelers, though Willey said this is much further down the road.

When it does happen, it would likely be used primarily for smaller aircraft bringing supplies to a forward operating base rather than strategic airlift such as a C-17, he said. The RPA for airlift will likely get its start in the commercial sector, he said.

‘Facebook of Everything’: IT Security Firm Says China Indexing US Officials

A security firm has come out with an idea as to how the information of millions of federal employees, stolen in a hack of the U.S. government personnel office, could be used.

CrowdStrike founder Dmitri Alperovitch told Fox News that the hackers — believed to have links to China — responsible infiltrating the U.S. Office of Personnel Management and other networks are building a “Facebook of Everything” that could be used “to embarrass you publicly and force you to work for the Chinese government.”

“It’s, in effect, a private version of Facebook with much more detail about your life than even Facebook has that the Chinese now have access to,” Alperovitch told the news outlet

The OPM breach affecting 22.5 million people was announced in June, and hackers were believed to have accessed a form known as Standard Form 86, which requires applicants to fill out deeply personal information about mental illnesses, drug and alcohol use, past arrests and bankruptcies.

They also require the listing of contacts and relatives, potentially exposing any foreign relatives of U.S. intelligence employees to coercion. Both the applicant’s Social Security number and that of his or her cohabitant is also required.

Shortly after the hack was announced, Evan Lesser, managing director of ClearanceJobs.com, said that these records would “sure make the job easier” to blackmail someone.

According to Fox News, sources close to the investigation worry that the information from the hack could affect more than just employees with ties to the federal government, but also their families. Alperovitch told Fox the hackers could target children to “try to get them to reveal some information about their parent’s work and use that, eventually, for espionage activities. Information that has been collected about them may be used decades later.”

James Clapper, the nation’s top intelligence official, told the House intelligence committee last week that a muted response to most cyberattacks has created a permissive environment in which hacking can be used as a tool short of war to benefit adversaries and inflict damage on the United States.

“Until such time as we do create both the substance and the mindset of deterrence, this sort of thing is going to continue,” Clapper said, speaking specifically about the hack of federal personnel information linked to China in which personal data on current and former U.S. government employees, contractors, job applicants and relatives was stolen. “We will continue to see this until we create both the substance and the psychology of deterrence.”

While Clapper expressed his fear that information could be used to expose or blackmail American intelligence operatives, he said the U.S. has yet to see any evidence of the data being used in that way.

The administration has yet to act in response to the OPM hack.

Strange Light In The Sky Explained

South Floridians who were outside early Wednesday morning may have seen a strange light streaking across the sky and wondered “what the heck is that?”

Residents from the Palm Beaches to the Keys snapped pictures of the white light with what looked like a twin billowing smoke plumes behind it.

A UFO? A comet? A strange visitor from another planet?

Nope to all of the above. It was a rocket.

The United Launch Alliance Atlas 5 rocket blasted off from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station just before dawn. On board was a U.S. Navy communications satellite.

“Built by Lockheed Martin, this U.S. military spacecraft will provide narrowband tactical communications designed to significantly improve ground communications for U.S. forces on the move,” according to SpaceFlightNow.com.



Meteorologist Craig Setzer says the rocket was highly visible because the sun was hitting the rocket exhaust above the horizon while we were still in darkness before sunrise.

Cloudy FAA data skews drone threat

A UFO sighting 51,000 feet above Washington is not something one might expect to read about in a database linked to a news release by the Federal Aviation Administration titled: “Pilot reports of close calls with drones soar in 2015.”

But it’s in there.


Among other incidents, a large Predator-style drone crashed near a residential area, according to the FAA database.

And a drone was hovering in unauthorized airspace close to a crime scene being investigated by the Inglewood Police Department in California.

All are striking events.

But they’re not about close calls between drones and manned aircraft like planes and helicopters.
According to the Academy of Model Aeronautics, a nonprofit group that has tried to educate new drone users about safe flying standards, the FAA missed a chance to responsibly inform the public about the possible risks that drones may pose when the agency released the database.

“There is no doubt that a number of these incidents (in the database) are real safety issues that need to be addressed,” said Richard Hanson, the AMA’s government and regulatory affairs director.

“But we would like to see the FAA analysis filter those (non-close calls) out and not embellish the issue or put out information that has the potential of causing public concern,” Hanson said.

“Not that they shouldn’t be concerned, but we don’t want to inflate that concern beyond what we are dealing with,” he said.

More than 700 incidents

Less than two weeks after an Aug. 12 news release, the FAA posted a database on its website with sightings reported since mid-November of unmanned aircraft systems, also known as drones, or sometimes referred to as UAS.

The database contains more than 700 incidents in the U.S. through Aug. 20.

On July 24, a pilot flying a small jet known as an Embraer 135 reported seeing a UFO flying over the U.S. capital at 51,000 feet, far from the plane.

The UFO, or unidentified flying object, was moving west to east just above the horizon with “steady light illumination,” according to the FAA’s description of the sighting. It was “fast moving” and “gone within 5 minutes.”

A few months before, on March 25, a drone capable of carrying missiles crashed about 4 miles east of Wilsona Gardens, Calif., which is about 25 miles south of Edwards Air Force Base.

In capital letters, the FAA description of the incident reads: “PRELIM INFO FROM FAA OPS: WILSONA GARDENS, CA/UAS INCIDENT/1232P/E10 REPORTED A MQ1C UAS CRASHED 4 E OF WILSONA GARDENS. NO INJURIES ON GROUND.”

The MQ-1C, made by General Atomics Aeronautical, is “an extremely reliable UAS,” according to the company’s website.

Known as the Gray Eagle, it can fly up to 29,000 feet, and can carry multiple payloads, including laser equipment, radar and four Hellfire missiles.

The U.S. Department of Defense’s media staff could not be reached for comment through an email containing the FAA description of the incident.

Another incident in California happened Aug. 18, when the LA Police Department reported a drone.
According to the FAA’s description, the Inglewood Police Department was working a crime scene at a gas station about 2 miles from a runway at Los Angeles International Airport. The LAPD was told that the drone activity was not authorized and had to come down, according to the FAA.

The LAPD apparently was told by Inglewood that the drone was privately owned.

LAPD media officials did not immediately know about the incident and asked that a request for information be submitted in writing.

Inglewood police officials did not return calls Friday.

What’s a “close call?”

FAA spokesman Les Dorr said he could not provide more information about the UFO, military drone or crime-scene incidents.

“What’s in the database is everything we have,” Dorr said.

“The MQ-1C aircraft was likely operated by the military. Suggest you contact DoD. For the August 18 incident, it appears, LAPD, Inglewood PD or the L.A. Sheriff’s Dept. might have more information,” he said in an email.

The Aug. 12 FAA news release titled “Pilot reports of close calls with drones soar in 2015” led to reporting by several newspapers.

Asked whether it would be fair to say that the FAA should have better vetted the data to give a better assessment of the “close call” risks UAS pose to manned aircraft, Dorr said:

“The definition of a near mid-air collision for all aircraft is within 500 feet vertical, ½ mile lateral distance.

“Since the majority of the pilot reports can’t be verified — the drones typically don’t show up on radar nor is the operator identified — we can’t say for certain what the actual separation distance was. The use of the phrase ‘close calls’ is simply part of a news headline; there is no regulatory definition of ‘close call,’ as such.

AMA officials, responding to Dorr’s comment, said that these types of incidents are not directly informative about the risks that drones may pose to manned aircraft such as planes and helicopters.

“It is irresponsible for the FAA to assert in the media that ‘close calls’ happened when the agency admits that they don’t have a clear regulatory definition of what that means.

“It needs to have a definition or at least be more precise with its language when issuing these reports.
“If the FAA hasn’t been able to verify what these are, they shouldn’t refer to them as close calls,” Hanson said.

U.S. astronaut says he was told there were UFO's at Roswell

Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell recently talked to the Observer.com to clarify some remarks that have been attributed to him about UFO's and the famous incident in Roswell, New Mexico, where some claim a UFO crash-landed in the 1950's.

Mitchell, who grew up in the area, said he had never seen a UFO himself.

But he said he had talked to people who worked at the White Sands nuclear facility, who confirmed to him that UFO activity did take place.

He also said that the incident was kept secret because of the technology that could be obtained from the UFO's by "moneyed" interests.

Conspiracist Claims He Has Evidence The Australian Government is Working With ETs?

A PALMERSTON UFO boffin says he has new evidence the Government is collaborating with extra terrestrials as part of a grand conspiracy, which will ultimately cost millions of lives. 
 
Nick – who refused to give his surname on the grounds the Federal Government, Australian Defence Force and US Marines might track him down – said he had spotted “shadows” in the sky, which appeared immediately after looking into the sun.

Nick said the shadows were normally invisible to the naked eye, but were “clearly visible” in the photos he supplied exclusively to the NT News . (STORY HERE)

“Look, I’m not really a conspiracy theorist, and I’m not really into the internet, but I’ve done a bit of reading, and there’s a lot of information about this online,” he said.

Nick said evidence of the extraterrestrial phenomenon has been obscured by “chemtrails” put across the sky by the US and Australian militaries.

“I don’t know if you noticed, but about a year ago the sky changed colour a bit,” he said.

“I think they’ve put something up there to stop us seeing whatever it is that’s coming towards us. I just thought I should let everyone know.”

An ADF spokeswoman said: “As far as I am aware, we have no involvement with this kind of activity.”

But Nick said army helicopters had been flying over his house ever since he captured evidence of the “conspiracy”.

The Defence spokeswoman denied the claims. “The helicopters are conducting routine training,” she said.

Optometrist Tony Hill advised against staring into the sun, even if there was the promise of learning about the paranormal.

“It does a lot of retinal damage,” he said.

Nick, however, said he would continue to research the phenomenon.

1950s Norwegian UFO Mystery Solved

 Plenty of Norwegians thought aliens had taken a fancy to their country back in the 1950s thanks to a slew of inexplicable UFO sightings. Inexplicable no more: It was the CIA, reports the BBC. Actually, it was the CIA itself that fessed up in this tweet, which reads in part, "Remember reports of unusual activity in the skies in the '50s? That was us." It then provides a government writeup about the sightings, which weren't caused by alien spaceships but by U2 spy planes being tested. The planes flew above 60,000 feet, which wasn't thought possible at the time, so commercial pilots who saw something so far above them couldn't explain it. The effect was more pronounced at different times of the day and night, and if the U2 planes caught the rays of the sun just right, even people on the ground would see silvery glints of light. The explanation was kept classified for decades, notes the BBC, picking up on a report in the foreign-language Aftenposten.
