Mars - Lander Spirit Has Landed in the Mud



Mars Controllers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory celebrated Saturday night with the successful landing of the Exploration Rover Spirit on Mars. Spirit landed right side up and the first photos showed a very flat area in the Gusev Crater. The Rover scans the land with a pair of panoramic cameras that detect visible light. The mission is to search for evidence of water on the planet. Where there is water there is life. Buried at the base of the Rover's mast lies a third eye that is sensitive to heat, or thermal-infrared radiation. Every Martian rock, radiating heat absorbed from the sun, broadcasts its mineral composition.



Mineral molecules vibrate at a distinctive frequency, emitting a particular wavelength of infrared light. "In these thermal infrared wavelengths," Ruff says, "all minerals have a distinctive infrared signature that's really like a fingerprint." A computer program on Earth will scan each spectrum sent back for telltale signs of rocks that signal the past presence of water on Mars.



A close up of Gusev Crater is shown in the new detailed images that reveal a mysterious substance right at the rover's feet, which scientists described as a "strangely cohesive" clay-like material with alien textures. The material was mashed and clumped, like something moist and viscous, and was broken away in pieces at some spots. "The way the surface has responded is bizarre," said lead rover scientist Steve Squyres of Cornell University, at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), which is managing the mission. "I don't understand it. I don't know anybody on my team who understands it. It looks like mud, but it can't be mud."

Editor's Note: "Water mixed with dirt equals mud!" As the photos start coming in watch to see if all white parts of the lander are tinted red/orange. NASA and JPL apparently want Mars to appear red/orange. If the sky is blue like Earth's you are seeing the real colors.



Massachusetts – They Touched Me While I Slept



Kenny writes, “After going to sleep and feeling something touch my forehead above my nose, then a head explosion with both a sound and the big flash of light.” Then I awake and wonder what was that and how did it happen? Thanks To Kenny



Editor's Note - We have put video cameras in people's rooms with a motion sensor on it, and picked up electrical plasma like objects floating around the room. The cat watches and verifies what the camera sees. These plasmas can apparently cause many types of reactions. I wonder if a similar phenomenon is floating around your room causing these problems?



Georgia - Finely Polished Silver Disc



FLOWERY BRANCH - On January 1, 2004, around 3:30 PM a family was driving home and had turned off of I985 onto Spout Springs Road (heading east) when the wife said "what is that?". The husband states, “It appeared to be several hundred feet up and my first thought was that it was a reflective foil-like balloon but the sun's reflection from the object was very bright and the object's surface was like finely polished silver. My wife, daughter age 5, and son almost 3 got real curious. We got the impression that the object was 4 to 6 feet in diameter. We passed the object by and turned around and came back and parked. From this vantage point we could clearly see the object was moving slowing away from us flip and roll sort of like it was tumbling but not consistently in any given direction.



From this movement we could make out that the object was an almost flat disc. When it would roll to its thin side it looked black and there was no reflection. When it would roll and reveal its flat side it would appear to be silver and the sun's reflection was strong. It looked like polished silver and in the middle of the object was a red circle. My wife said it looked like a big silver button in the sky with a red dot in the middle that did not reflect the sun. The object looked solid and tumbled on its axis and changed direction from west to the northeast. My daughter thought it was a floating CD (compact disc). We tried to follow and my wife was looking at it as we were driving, she turned away and when she turned back, "It's gone" she said. I looked all over the sky and it was just gone. This was the most baffling part to us how quickly it disappeared. Our eyes were off it only for a few seconds. Thanks to Brian Vike,



Florida – Black Triangle Over Highway



MARATHON (FIESTA KEY) – The witnesses were driving toward Key West from Miami on US1 at about 12:30 AM January 4, 2003, and as they drove over a bridge and in the they saw something with a green and red light. I noticed it and told my friend I thought it was the balloon that transmits Radio Marti to Cuba.
(Many people may not know-the US government has a large balloon located at Cudjoe Key, FL that transmits Radio Marti to Cuba), but they were too far away to see this balloon.



When we got closer to the lights the driver lost them but the passenger saw an object moving over the road. He saw a red and white light 100 to 250 feet hovering directly over the highway. He also saw a black mass between the lights in what looked like a triangle but didn't totally point at the top. From his account the white light was on the top and he saw a red light on the corner of one of the bottom of the points. There was never any sound it made. We opened the windows of the truck when we were close to it, and it was just quiet.


I had to go about 1000 feet before I saw a driveway to turn around. When we went back, there was nothing there. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Ohio – Strange Happenings in a Haunted House



FOSTORIA - Susan H. lives with her family in a 160 year old Victorian house that seems to be haunted. Strange balls of light are seen outside the home about the size of basketballs. Orange orbs are often seen hovering above the barn. The children reported dancing lights in the sky, lights shining in the windows, and faces looking in the second story windows. Many electrical anomalies and weird noises are heard throughout the house. The daughter reports there is a little man in the backroom and a moon face at the windows. The occupants report dreams of aliens and small creatures in the backroom. The mother had a very real dream, where she awoke and saw a small alien near her pillow, and a tall one at the bottom of the bed touched her with a 30 inches long glowing blue rod about the diameter of a pencil. The children when younger would awake with tremendous nose bleeds.



A few days before Christmas Susan saw bright lights outside her home and beams of lights came down from the sky. She later dreamed she was holding their seven year old grandson with an alien holding his hand to help her. She could see a huge craft about the size of their quarter acre pond parked across the road. She thought these were strange dreams until a friend came to tell her that he saw her aboard a UFO. The investigation will continue. This Victorian Home is a few miles from George Ritter’s home where UFOs are frequently videotaped. Susan indicated several neighbors have confided they have also seen UFOs in the area.



Editor's Note: George Ritter predicts UFO flap in 2004, and so do I.



California – Beings of Light



R. David Anderson writes, “I read your messages these past two weeks regarding white cloud like UFO's and a relationship to angelic beings.” The UFO's which I have seen and photographed were of an intense white radiant nature. I also have had the impression of messages given to me and an encounter with certain beings of light who refer to themselves as the "Adonai ." I am aware now that the term Adonai is one name for God in the Old Testament. Adonai is used to refer to the merciful aspect of God, and it also means the energy that transforms. I have been given the distinct impression that the "Adonai" are here to transform the Earth and to confront those dark forces that oppose God's plan. I noticed while videotaping that unusual objects precede the UFO by seconds. Objects begin in vertical position and rotate counterclockwise. See http://groups.aol.com/_cqr/ufopics?mmch_=0

Four Plus Dimensions and Parallel Universe



We live in three dimensions: You can go north-south, east-west or up-down. Simple enough. If you add one more dimension for time -- as Albert Einstein suggested -- that's four altogether. That's plenty for most of us. And, until recently, it would have been enough for most physicists as well. But the past few years have brought a flurry of new ideas about the structure of the universe, and physicists are now contemplating multidimensional worlds that put our seemingly three-dimensional surroundings to shame. It all starts with string theory, which attempts to unify gravity with the other forces of nature. In the string picture, the most fundamental "bits" of matter are not point-like particles but rather one-dimensional loops of string. But to make the theory consistent -- to make the math work out -- string theory relies on a framework involving extra dimensions.



"String theory is the only theory we know about that consistently puts in quantum mechanics and gravity, and it necessarily has other dimensions," says Lisa Randall of Harvard University. "It just doesn't work if the theory is fundamentally 3-plus-1 dimensional," that is, if the theory contains only three dimensions for space plus one for time. "So if string theory really is the right theory, there are these extra dimensions. And the question isn't, 'Why are they there?' The question is, 'What happened to them?' What are their consequences? Do they do anything useful?" The answer to that first question -- what happened to the extra dimensions -- seems to be straightforward: They're all around us, but hidden from view. That is, they're thought to be "curled up" on scales far too small to see.



The original version of string theory was weird enough, but, in the 1990s, physicists came up with a refined version known as M-theory. In the new picture, one-dimensional strings give way to higher-dimensional membranes, or "branes" for short.



As theorists investigated the properties of these branes, they found that not all of the extra dimensions needed to be curled up. Some of them, in fact, could be infinite. These new "brane world" models offer a startling new description of the cosmos. In some of the scenarios, the entire visible universe is merely a "3-brane" -- a three-dimensional membrane -- embedded in a larger structure, called the "bulk," which has at least four space dimensions (and, as usual, one more for time).



The remarkable part of the theory is that there's no reason to presume that our universe -- our 3-brane -- is unique. There could be any number of "parallel" branes nestled alongside ours in the four-dimensional bulk. Think of a series of parallel sheets of paper suspended alongside one another. Why don't we notice these other branes? Theorists believe that most of the known physical forces operate only within a particular brane. For example, we can't see these parallel branes because light is governed by electromagnetism; photons of light are trapped, stuck on the surface of our brane. The case is obviously still speculative, Professor Steinhardt says, "but it seems like a natural possibility." "Imagine a force between these two three-dimensional worlds that would tend to draw them together, as if they were two rubber sheets being drawn together by a spring," he says. "At regular intervals, they would come together, smash together, creating a certain amount of heat -- which we would think of as radiation and matter -- and then bounce apart."



Of course, the idea of extra dimensions would merely philosophy (with a heavy dose of mathematics thrown in) if there were no way to test it. But, theorists believe that there may be at least three ways of indirectly detecting these extra dimensions.



Editor’s Note: It is quite possible that UFOs operate in another dimension or a parallel brane and periodically leak out into our world due to gravity. Any light it emits will remain trapped in its own world, but its gravity reaches across to ours. Perhaps even the reverse is true that gravity remains trapped in the parallel world, but light from the UFO is seen in ours. I suggest to Professor Paul Steinhardt of Princeton University, a pioneer in developing brane-world cosmologies that I can help prove or disprove his theories by the study of UFOs.





Arizona – Millennium New Years Eve UFO



PHOENIX - On December 31, 1999, at 11:55 PM, my boyfriend and I were outside his home preparing to celebrate the millennium. Many neighbors were, also, outdoors, as we stood there waiting for the New Year we had a lovely view of the night sky. It was perfectly clear and noticed a very bright and large light traveling from south to north about as fast as a helicopter flies appear high up in the sky. We both watched it approach, as did some of the neighbors, as it was bigger and brighter than any we had seen. As it got closer, we realized it was extremely high but very big. I kid you not..exactly at 12 AM on the turn of the century...this object stopped dead in the sky over Sky Harbor Airport and remained motionless for 15 seconds while we all stared and discussed what it could be. Then, right before our eyes it split into two separate parts which zoomed away faster than anything I've ever seen! At that point, all thoughts of celebrating the New Year were forgotten, and while we had been discussing the object moments before, now there was only a stunned silence. Some people turned and went into their homes without a word. We all went inside a little shaken.



Washington – Flying Triangle


WOODINVILLE – The eye-witness was at his computer on January 5, 2004, at 5:10 PM,, when he was distracted by flashing lights outside. The object had a row or two of flashing white lights that were reminiscent of emergency lights -- the kind that police vehicles use. These were white and seemed to be all over the craft that was moving south. It slowed to a stop and started going in reverse, northward. That was when I pointed it out to my girlfriend. It then tilted one of its points towards us and started a lazy circle, revealing a triangular shape. At two apexes were alternating red lights, with the flashing white lights on the bottom. In the center of the triangle was one slowly flashing larger red light. I could not discern a light at the third corner, but sometimes thought I saw a bright white light flashing there as well. It seemed that the pattern of flashing white and red.lights changed as the craft moved in different ways. The craft had completed its circle and was hovering four blocks away. It was about the size of a silver dollar at arm’s length and hovering at about 300 feet altitude. It then rotated on its tail and rotated so that the "front" point was now level and facing north. It then picked up a lot of speed and flew out of sight.



It accelerated very fast and was out of sight within four seconds. At 5:13, I picked up my camera and immediately it came back into view, and hovered over the same area as before. I could hear the faint sound of a propeller plane, but it seemed very faint. After a minute, it began to move slowly back to the north. My camera's batteries were too low, so I could not get a picture. Some neighbors were walking up the path from the parking lot as I tried to take a photograph. The man immediately commented that it looked like a UFO to him. Soon it picked up speed at an alarming rate and was gone again within seconds. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Canada – Police See UFO With Hundreds of Lights


SICAMOUS, BRITISH COLUMBIA - On December 26, 2003, the dispatcher for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police took a call from an excited woman who saw unusual sights over a period of time. She felt she wasn't being taken seriously but at 11:30 PM, an officer arrived and saw an object and stood in amazement. He then drove towards the mountain where the object was sitting to get a closer look.



(HBCC UFO Note: So far Brian Vike left two messages with the Sicamous RCMP detachment to have the constable call me back. Excellent video footage has been shot by the family where you can hear the children in the background commenting on how quickly the object was moving all over the sky. It moves rather quickly, zigzagging, etc.. In the footage it shows the object moving erratically around the sky. The other members of her family who stood watching this event unfold saw the very same thing with the naked eye. There are more than one on different days and they are as big as a house and covered in lights only a mile away. Though binoculars it was the shape of an acorn or a diamond. It shot out a large red fireball, then six bright orange lights appeared in the sky around it. Each of the orange lights had another two white lights on them. These white lights shot a beam of light towards the ground. A half an hour later four more of the large acorn/diamond shaped objects showed up and sat either stationary or moved around the sky with hundreds of lights on each of them.

This story proved interesting enough that the television station (CHBC TV out of Kelowna, British Columbia) sent a news crew to interview the family and to get a copy of the footage. An RCMP officer who was out in his patrol car ... noticed an object in the sky and was instantly hit with a beam of light from it. After his shift was over and upon his return to his detachment he informed his co-workers of what he had seen. They thought he was seeing things. Now perhaps they have a different interpretation of the event.

Comox Valley, B.C.- On December 29, 2003, at 6:50 PM, the witness reports seeing a glowing almost round shaped object coming from the southwest, then just stopping, and then moving slowly to the north. It flew slowly southwest, hovered, then zoomed off towards east at an amazing speed. Later, I went outside and saw what could be the same object that had returned to almost the same spot but much higher. I am 100% sure of what I saw unless its some kind of manmade experimental object. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director CANADA HBCC



ABBOTSFORD, BC – A formation of two Crop Circles was found on December 15, by Laurel Leaman-Konrad and Jo Slingerland, near a previous "trident" formation. One circle in cattle corn and the other partly in cattle corn and partly in grass, about 30 - 46 meters (100 - 150 feet) apart. Circle in both cattle corn and grass slightly was larger and 55 feet in diameter. This was the seventeenth known report for 2003.



Argentina – Luminous UFO and Cattle Mutilations



ROSARIO -- The UFO was seen last Saturday, December 27, 2003, between 1 and 1:30 a.m. in the "El Patio de la Madera" sector of the city. The luminous object traveled from west to east at a speed similar to that of an airliner. Upon seeing the object, the eyewitness ran for his camcorder but couldn't find a free tape, so he chose not to waste any more time and used his digital camera. Rosario is less than 60 km from Victoria in the province of Entre Rios, which is famous for sightings that involve lights. The person who sent these images to the list states that a fisherman recognized the object and said that it was identical to others that he had seen in the past over the same area. Reports of animal mutilations continue to increase from Argentina. Thanks to Scott Corrales, IHU. Special thanks to Christian Quintero, Planeta UFO.



Northern England- Flying Triangles



WEST CUMBRIA - Three UFOs were spotted during the festive season over Workington and Whitehaven. Shining balls and spooky triangles were seen in the night sky. Daley Rogers, of Hensingham, was left spellbound by a red object hovering overhead. He said: “We were coming home and we could see something in the sky that dropped something white and bright that exploded. Then, it took off. Daley, 23, admits that although he wasn’t frightened by the ball-shaped object, he’s found it hard to get it out of his mind.



At least six other people witnessed strange goings-on in the West Cumbrian skies over Christmas. UFO expert Sharon Larkin, of Broughton Cross, near Cockermouth, said: “We have had sightings of a triangular-shaped craft and an orange ball over the Workington area." The triangle was going over the Stainburn bypass at around 10.30 PM on a Sunday at the end of December. Before that it was sitting over Clifton. “The orange ball was spotted over Broughton Moor last week.” The area has a higher than average of unexplained sightings. “The night sky in Cumbria is particularly alive. From September onwards, the skies are full of lights. With it getting darker earlier, people are more aware of what is going on over their heads.” Thanks to Emma McGordon and Fiona MacRae The News and Star 05/01/2004



England - UFOs Were Globular Twinkling Lights


HUDDERSFIELD – The Daily Examiner reports - Twinkling Christmas stars may have been replaced by UFOs over Huddersfield. Shocked pensioner Malcolm Stapp is adamant he saw a couple of flying saucers in the night sky. Mr. Stapp, 74, of Salendine Nook, said: "It sounds incredible I know, but I couldn't believe what I was seeing." He was going to bed at 12.30 AM, on Monday when he saw a bright light in the sky. He said: "It was stationary for at least 15 minutes and another one appeared traveling north and going very fast - a lot faster than the jets that fly over here. It was certainly not a helicopter or a plane." He added: "Both UFOs were globular with lots of lights on them. I tried to look at the stationary one through binoculars, it was just a blur of intense lights." I watched it for 15 minutes and it was still there when I went to bed. "I've never seen anything like it before." link



Netherlands - Fifty UFO Sightings Last Month

STEENWIJK – On December 10, 2003, a 20 year old student and his family spotted some strange objects in the dark sky at around 6.10 PM. They spotted six strange objects in the dark clear sly with freezing temperatures: I was driving across my block while I saw this bright light up in the sky that moved a couple of kilometres in less than a second. It actually scared me so I stopped my car, opened my window and stared at the sky?

Suddenly I spotted more of these very same objects surrounded by a blue-white glow and softly but rapidly pulsating to red. One object became very, very bright. Within every five seconds or so the objects moved a couple of kilometres, however, these maneuvers were very unpredictable. I quickly drove home and shouted to my family to come out of the house to be able to see what I was seeing. They saw the same objects. But when my mother saw one craft shoot a couple of kilometres from it’s position within less than a second, she screamed and asked, "What it could be?" One craft actually flew from a distant position right over us to a position behind us. At one time two were pulsating extremely bright, and one flew off. I would like to make it clear that these objects were nót planes. They moved far too quickly for that.


WERVERSHOOF - A 27-year old and some friends witnessed a bright ball of light on a cold clear New Year's Eve at twenty minutes after midnight. "I and a couple of friends saw the ball of light arriving from the Ijsselmeer (IJssel-lake is a shallow lake of approx. 1250 km²). It moved horizontally and extremely fast. This definitely couldn't be fireworks, since they can't travel that far. The very bright ball of light was initially blue-violet colored and changed to red. I followed the object until I couldn't see it anymore. It disappeared out of my sight after some houses and trees, but I didn't have the impression that it decreased in speed or height. What it exactly was, is a mystery for me, it was a great experience." Thanks to Toine Trust, Home of the Dutch UFO Community site: www.UFOPlaza.nl mail: nieuws@UFOPlaza.nl



Japan – UFO Shaped Like Three Diamonds



TOKYO - Director Jun-ichi Kato, Organization of UFO Research Japan (OUR-J) reports, “A very unusual flying object was seen over the suburban area on December 14, 2003. Mrs. Miyayama dedicated OUR-J member and spotter on Sunday, around 12:20 PM, she was checking out the clear sky as usual from the balcony of her apartment. She saw an orangish translucent object suddenly appear in the sky and looked at it through her binoculars to verify its shape. Interestingly, found it was very unique that it looked like a fragment of abacus or three diamond shaped structures that connected in line.



One of three diamonds was shining metallic. The direction of appearance is east and the altitude is between 65 - 70 degrees. To share this exciting moment with her family, Mrs. Miyayama called out to her husband and her sons who were in the living room at the time. They all eye-witnessed this amazing object as well, said Mrs. Miyayama. The UFO hovered for about 10 minutes or so, and slowly descended and finally disappeared.

South Australia – Orange Lights

ADELAIDE SA - A former soldier Anthony age 45, was outside having a smoke when he called his wife outside to observe a moving orange light that was very large, coming from the north., on Sunday December 29, 2003, about 10:30 PM. The bright orange light was almost as big as the moon and traveling northeast to southwest. They couldn't make out the shape or hear any noise. It was not on a regular flight path but flew near the Royal Australian Air Force Base. He thought it could be relatively close, and thought for a moment it could have been a helicopter but for the color of the light. It traveled steadily then made a turn at constant speed until after 5 minutes it disappeared over the hills to the southwest. Thanks to Diane Harrison

NSW NEWCASTLE - Trish reports, “I was standing out the front of my home here in New Lambton with my 15 and12 year old children on New Years Eve. With us were my neighbor couple with their 3 kids (7yrs, 14yrs and 16yrs). It was around 11:45 PM when we all saw two bright orange lights, a little larger than a star, that were traveling southwest in a straight line, one behind the other about one hand width apart. Then, the one behind swung down under the front one and passed to go in front. They hovered for about 10 seconds, then started to fade and disappeared. Then, about ten minutes later they re-appeared in the same flight pattern and maneuvers to bring in the New Year for 2004, then, hovering and fading. This happened 6 times. On the third time my daughter and the man next door saw another orange light same size to the north along the coastline. My son saw two other orange lights the same size under the other lights but they disappeared behind a tree. Comment: There have been more sightings of the orange UFOs reported that same night.

"Global Implications of the UFO Reality" book



David E. Twichell writes: “How will humankind react when full disclosure of the alien presence in our world is finally released? Why has official secrecy been perpetuated for so many years? Is the UFO phenomenon a modern myth or have they always been with us? What are the credentials of those who insist “we are not alone in the universe.” These and many other provocative questions are addressed. Chilling scientific evidence demonstrates the urgency for full disclosure – NOW! On that historic day, there is no element of the human experience that will remain unaffected.

Thanks ELRICK! I'm always impressed by these Filer's files. There sure is a lot of swamp gas being reflected off Venus each month!

But as usual, the more arcane files often agang astray (huh?). Fer instance:

WEIRD CATTLE MUTILATIONS DISCOVERED IN RELATION TO FAST FOOD OUTLET!

API: Dryhump, Arkansas

Little Melvin Leroy Tirebiter discovered yesterday an astonishing phenomenon only a few blocks from his Igloo on Hairy Truman Ave. While hanging out outside the outside of his local MacRonald's burger bar, Melvin noticed that he was holding in his hand a mysterious disk of reprocessed cow parts! Moreover, the parts apparantly had been heated by some strange microwave radiation to the point where they were insipid. As if that wasn't enough, the cow parts had teeth marks in them that matched Melvins own teeth!
To top it off, further inspection revealed that some form of protein derived from cow juice (commonly called "milk", but in this case "milk by products") had been melted all over the cow parts!

Local authorities are baffled. "From my point of view" said sheriff "Luger" Axehandle, "the wierdest part is that the cow parts were neatly sandwiched between two pieces of toasted wheat product, also in the shape of a disc. I've heard of crop circles, but this is ridiculous! Do suppose them aliens know about Crullers?" We must point out that Sheriff Axehandle is a well known meat and doughnuts man around town.

The National Institute of Scientific Science Institute (NISSI) immediately sent a top flight team of scientists who had nothing better to do than take a vacation in Arkansas on taxpayer money, and they had this to say:

"Try the secret sauce. It really gets rid of those wrinkles!"

In THIS reporter's opinion, the whole thing is a bunch of soy protein! Flying cows! Melted crop circles! Scientists on a diet! What will they think of next? Soon they'll be telling us that 9/11 was the work of a bunch of Arab Terrorists! PlEEEEase! How dumb do they think we are, anyway?

Filer's Files #03-2004 Skywatch Investigations.

George A. Filer, Director MUFON Eastern

January 14, 2004, Webmaster: Chuck Warren --

My website is at: www.georgefiler.com/



Mars - Now Has Life and a Blue Sky



The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. Moon and Mars – Exploration to Continue, Mars – The Veil Over the Martian Sky May Be Lifting, Mars Sky Is Really Blue and Rocks Have Green Algae, Mars – Is the Speck in the Mars Sky a UFO? Connecticut – Flying Triangle With Four Hundred Lights, Virginia - Huge Shiny Ball, Georgia - Large Dark Triangular Craft, Florida – Moon Size Silver Disk, Indiana – Three Police Officers Chase UFO, Missouri – High Speed Balls of Light, New Mexico – UFO Expands 500 Times its Size, Arizona – Two Cigars Then Six, California – Three Egg Shaped Craft, Washington – Two UFOs Leap Frog, Canada – Shuttle Shaped UFO Triangle and Lights, Netherlands - Massive Flying Triangle, and Australia – Four Dull Glowing Orange Lights.



Astronaut Gordon Cooper stated, “Yes, several days in a row we sighted groups of metallic, saucer-shaped vehicles at great altitudes over the base, and we tried to get close to them, but they were able to change direction faster than our fighters. I do believe UFOs exists and that the truly unexplained ones are from some other technologically advanced civilization. From my association with aircraft and spacecraft, I think I have a pretty good idea of what everyone on this planet has and their performance capabilities, and I'm sure some of the UFOs at least are not from anywhere on Earth.”



Moon and Mars – Exploration to Continue



Reportedly President Bush will announce plans soon to send Americans to Mars and establish a permanent space station on the moon. A manned mission to Mars will be a decade from now. This will be the first trip to the moon since December 1972. Bush wants to aggressively reinvigorate the space program, which was demoralized by the space shuttle disaster last February that killed seven astronauts.



The Veil Over the Martian Sky May Be Lifting



On January 10, 2004, the Mars Rover science team unveiled some of the first true images of Mars showing a Blue Sky at a news conference at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California. NASA's official fact sheet claims there is no evidence of alien life or UFOs and in the past has only released images of orange or red skies. In photo below JPL Mechanical systems engineer Chris Voorhees, left, project scientist, Joy Crispm and Matt Golombek, right, talks about mineral and chemical testing that will be done by NASA's Spirit.

Editor’s Note: This is an historic panoramic image of the Martian surface by Spirit's cameras showing the true unaltered color of the sky ever released with a BLUE SKY, its normal true color when dust storms are not present . Could this be due to President Bush’s expected announcement that the US will return to the Moon and Mars?



Mars - Sky Is Blue, Water and Green Algae



We spent millions of dollars sending the Viking Lander I to Mars in 1976. The world waited in great anticipation to see the first color images of Mars. At about 2:00 PM PDT on July 21, 1976, the first color image from the surface of another planet arrived at JPL in wonderful color. Mars showed its beautiful BLUE SKY, brown and reddish soil and rocks with patches of green. We never saw the true images because they were colored orange according to the men who worked at the Viking Image Formatting and Processing section of JPL.



Mr. Van der Woude says, "Both Ron Wichelman and I were responsible for the color quality control of the Viking Lander photographs, and Dr. Tomas Mutch, the Viking Imaging Team Leader told us he got a call from the NASA Administrator asking that we destroy the Mars blue sky negative created from the digital data." The images were then falsely reddened to make it appear there was no life, no green algae or lichen on the planet. See "Mars the Living Planet" by Barry Digregorio, Dr. Gilbert Levin and Dr. Pat Straat. Page 142.



The book explains how the tests for existence of life on Mars were rigged to deny life. Dr. Gilbert V. Levin who was in charge of the Viking Lander experiments revealed that when the Mars soil was examined by on board instruments in a miniature laboratory there was a startling positive response indicating life. The tests showed the evidence for life everyone had agreed on prior to the mission. Dr. Levin strongly believes they found life on Mars in 1976, but NASA insisted the instrumentation must be faulty. The official NASA answer was to deny the existence of alien life despite strong scientific evidence because of the claimed absence of water. Yet many scientists knew the images also showed evidence of water. Until recently the discovery of water on Mars, which includes waterspouts and geysers was hidden. When I worked at Langley AFB, NASA personnel claimed space structures, and UFOs were regularly air brushed out of space photos. Many images of Mars still appear to be doctored. See BUFO Paranormal Radio at http://www.burlingtonnews.net/spiritmars3.html



Scientists are speculating that the Spirit rover has already found evidence that water once flowed at its landing site in the Gusev Crater. One of its cameras may have detected small amounts of a mineral in the soil that suggests water was once present. Mars scientist Phil Christensen says the presence of the mineral - carbonate - suggests some rock formed in water. If the soil that contains carbonate is coarse, like water sediments, he adds, then it could be proof that the crater is an ancient lake bed. As we zoom down to the foot of the Lander we see one of the freshest rocks on the site; it's only a few tens of centimeters across, a relatively small rock, but it has some pits in it.

Mars – Is the Speck in Mars Sky a UFO?



Dan Bright writes, “I've enlarged the relevant portions of the image in the Martian sky shown on the Lander photo by 1000% using bi-cubic, 'genuine fractals' algorithm') The object that appears to be flying looks very strange but, it may be something explainable.

Martians Deny UFOs In Their Sky



As posted to the Austin Astronomical Society email list ... Gusev Crater (MPI) - A spokesman for Mars Air Force denounced as false rumors that an alien space craft crashed in the desert, outside of Ares Vallis on Saturday. Appearing at a press conference today, General Rgrmrmy The Lesser stated that "The object was, in fact, a harmless high-altitude weather balloon, not an alien spacecraft". The story broke late Saturday night when a major stationed at nearby Ares Vallis Air Force Base contacted the Gusev Crater Daily Record with a story about a strange, balloon-shaped object which allegedly came down in the nearby desert, "bouncing" several times before coming to a stop.” snip--



Connecticut – Flying Triangle With Four Hundred Lights



GUILFORD – On January 6, 2004, at about 8:40 PM, the eye- witness was told to look outside by his little sister who was observing something in the air. She went to the door and saw something rising straight up in the shape of a flying triangle with 400 lights. The witness states, “After a few minutes, it stopped and the blinking lights were not visible and it flew right over my house.” The lights were on the bottom of the UFO, so I believe the UFO was rising with the nose in the air. We watched it until it headed northwest and out of sight. My dogs were freaking out the whole time the UFO was near. The UFO rose straight up in the air, nose up, then stopped, straightened so the nose was pointing at us and then flew away. Peter Davenport the Director of NUFORC spoke with this witness, and she sounded quite sincere and credible.



Virginia - Huge Shiny Ball



CHESAPEAKE -- Huge shiny ball in the skies from December 28, 2003, to present. It appears around 5:45 p.m. and usually disappears around 7:45 PM. Before it appears there are at least four military jets way up in the sky. They look like small dots with long streams of smoke streaks. The object expands, gets smaller and changes colors from star bright to red to blue. It slowly moves from east to west, then appears to set low within the earth’s atmosphere. On camcorder tape it appears to bounce and have four black spots on it. star or planet? I don't think so. ABing@sevtc.state.va.us



Editor’s Note: Venus with a magnitude of –4.0 is low in the SW during twilight and sets in the WSW about 7 PM on January 1 and after 8 PM by the end of the month. It is a dazzling sight.



Georgia - Large Dark Triangular Craft.

DULUTH - The witness is a 57 year-old female employed by an internationally famous Atlanta area university. On January 4, 2004, at about 7:30 PM, the witness was driving home as she noticed a set of bright lights overhead beginning to glide past and noticed that the lights were attached to the bottom of a large dark triangular craft. She felt the actual size was 101 to 300 feet. Her first impression was a large "stealth type" craft flying very low at treetop level, with no sound noticed.



She had no trouble observing a "suction cup" like configuration around the steady white lights, one in the middle and also one on each corner, totaling four in the clear sky. At that point, it was traveling parallel to her and a little bit ahead. She sped up, but it appeared to be going a bit faster than her vehicle. The craft then began to ascend, it banked slightly to the left, and departed the scene. She attempted to get out her cell phone in order to call her friend to run outside and look skyward, but the phone was dropped onto the floorboard. She noticed two neighbors outside at the end of the street and intends on speaking with them ASAP. Witness is from a "scientific" family, her father being involved in atomic research during the WW II era. Within a few minutes, the witness arrived home and called the local police, Atlanta's Channel 11 (NBC) and Atlanta's Fernbank Science Center..all to no avail. This witness has agreed to a sit-down with SSD/FI David Brown of Norcross. Thanks to Tom Sheets Director MUFONGA

MUFONGA's Mark Kravitz of Marietta received confirmation that he successfully completed his examination for certified Field Investigator status. Congratulations Mark!



Florida – Silver Disk the Size of the Moon



FT. MYERS – The object appeared almost the size of the full moon as it flew over on January 4, 2004, at 2:30 PM. The witnesses had a very clear and razor sharp view of a very thin disk. The "bottom" surface appeared shaded, and upper surface was highly reflective and showed a wide low bulge nearly filling the diameter. It was definitely a disk, and definitely nearly flat on it's "upper" and "lower" surfaces. It behaved like a balloon, drifting and turning, climbing and dipping, bobbing weightlessly, in a more or less easterly direction. It did not appear to be under "control" or "doing" anything. It was big and definitely "hardware," and not a cloud. Nearby airfields are: Paige Field, and SW Florida International Airport. This occurred in or near the landing path for some of the air traffic. The disk had a bulge on one face, and was 30 feet across, that reflected sunlight and bobbed around at 3-5000 feet. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Indiana – Three Police Officers Chase UFO



HUNTINGTON -- Three police officers who say a strange object drifted through the skies over this northeastern Indiana city are trying to find someone else who saw it - whatever it was. Officer Chip Olinger was warming up his car December 26, 2003, when he reported seeing a circular object in the sky and radioed officers Greg Hedrick and Randy Hoover, who also saw it. All three say they watched as the object moved out of the northwest, drifted toward a church steeple, then shot straight north without a sound in an encounter that lasted less than a minute about 2:30 PM. The trio describes the object as about the size of a hot air balloon or a backyard trampoline. They said it was low enough in the sky that Olinger thought it might crash into the steeple. It stopped a few times and spinned slowly, changing shapes and at one point turned orange, possibly from reflected sunlight. "It wasn't any kind of flying machine that I can think of," Olinger told The Herald-Press. "And it's not like a `50s flying saucer. It was that big, but it didn't have a hump in the middle. No one called city, county of Indiana State Police to report it, and for a few days, they didn't say anything about it." Thanks to Huntington News



Missouri – High Speed Balls of Light



KANSAS CITY – Two witnesses saw a ball of light come over the western horizon moving at constant speed on November 15, 1960. There were no other lights and no sound, and no contrails. The object followed the curvature of the earth and once it reached the point directly overhead, it accelerated at warp speed and streaked across the sky like a meteor and disappeared. There was still no sound. One week later, driving at the same time of night at Wyandotte County Lake, I saw what appeared to be the same light passing in front of me from left to right at roughly 45 degrees above the horizon. Once again, when directly opposite me, it suddenly accelerated and disappeared at warp speed with no sound. About one week later, I was standing on the front porch of my house with my Dad, when we saw again what appeared to be the same light. It was passing fairly high traveling from the southwest to northeast at high speed. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



New Mexico – UFO Expands 500 Times its Size



The January 1 sighting of the flat disc in Flowery Branch, GA, reminded me of a UFO I saw near Los Alamos, NM, Monday evening of Memorial Weekend, 1983. A friend and I were camping when we saw a round white light moving slowly on the ground in a zigzag pattern on the side of a hill, several miles to the east. We assumed it was an army tank on maneuvers, as it would go over the hill, disappear, and return to our side of the hill. After about fifteen minutes of zigzagging, it suddenly rose into the sky and hovered over the hill for about five minutes. Not really believing in UFOs at that time, I thought it was a Harrier jet as I groped for a "logical explanation."



As the white light hovered over the hill, it suddenly expanded so fast, (like a controlled explosion) to about 500 times its original size. It floated obliquely to the south and much nearer to us. My friend and I felt like targets and were terrified. We jumped into our rental car but the car wouldn’t start, it was completely dead. Strangely reasoning that "they" wanted the car, we got back out.



The object stopped at 2,500 feet up and about 2000 feet from us. It was shaped like a huge disk with a flat side facing us. I heard a quiet, pulsating, high-pitched hum that almost made my ears hurt. I felt the hair on my head and arms rise, as if static electricity was strong. At arm's length the object would have been a yard in diameter. It began to slowly flip over, backwards. As it flipped over, the thin edge of the disk was completely transparent -- we could see stars through it. As it flipped over to its other side, it was opaque again and was bright red like a huge neon sign.



It paused for a second and seemed to "take a deep breath," then it suddenly zoomed off to the size of a little star and "got lost" among the other stars. Our car started fine after that. It forced me to realize that UFOs are real, and that our conventional science does not have the proper tools or paradigms to study this phenomenon. By Patricia Hoyt, Florida, pathoyt@comcast.net



Arizona – Two Cigars Then Six

SELIGMAN – Three friends were driving back from Las Vegas, on January 5, 2004, when the driver of commented on "the really bright stars" that had appeared about 45 minutes before sunset. The objects seemed to be moving. Within minutes, we saw a bright light, change to a cigar shape that turned red very suddenly. It appeared to explode and I yelled and we watched intently as the first object began to fall, while the second white object, turned a bright red and hovered over the mountain range adjacent to interstate 40 southbound. The object started to do several other bizarre things, like break out into a lateral acceleration that must have covered 50 miles within seconds, stop, turn colors, lift into the sky and return to it's low altitude, go in reverse immediately with rapid speed, then rocket off again.



After reaching the near-end of the mountain range, the view improved and it joined five or six more just like it, but each one was a varying intensity of red light. All of these objects demonstrated their agility and handling just as the first. One by one, the objects were either disappearing behind trees or hills or literally vanishing into thin air. We saw several other objects that were clearly airplanes and helicopters during the rest of our drive that evening, but absolutely nothing like the red lights on the mountains. We attempted to take photographs of these objects Peter Davenport spoke with this witness, and he sounded sincere, and quite credible. UFOcenter



California – Three Egg Shaped Craft



HAYWARD – The witnesses were driving southbound on Mission Boulevard on January 4, 2004, at 10:40 PM, and saw an object in the sky about 100 feet above the street. The object was white and egg shaped and light reflected off it, but it was not a flashy or metallic type of reflection. It was about five feet in diameter at it's thinnest point and moved north just over us as we drove southbound. Then, I saw two more objects, about 3/4 that size. I decided to stop and pull over to look and grab my camera. They were, also, egg shaped but gray, non-metallic. The white egg shape then changed shape slightly into a smoothened diamond like shape about 200 feet above me. The two gray craft stopped in mid-air and the white craft joined them briefly in a delta formation over our heads. The white craft then again sped off towards the north and the two gray craft quickly went straight up and disappeared. The white craft followed us south as we drove off and then sped off. I took several pictures. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Washington – Two UFOs Leap Frog



OLYMPIA – A couple were out for a walk in the snow on January 3, 2004, at 11:05 PM, when she stopped to look at the moon, which had appeared from behind the clouds. She suddenly pointed out two brightly lit points of light in the sky, heading in a S-SW direction. She asked if they were birds, and my immediate reaction was "Hell No!" The two separate lights caught up to each other, in a leapfrog fashion, each crossing and catching up to the first. Both UFOs were evenly lit. I have extensive experience in video and in visually tracking satellites. There was no perceivable sound. Both points of light disappeared into a cloudbank and we saw nothing more after that.



My girlfriend was freaked out, as the two objects converged on each other and diverged at a fairly high rate of speed, and remained consistently lit. I have never seen conventional aircraft perform in the manner of these unidentified objects. We went out again tonight, and were able to easily identify any aircraft in the air, including a helicopter returning to Ft Lewis. Nothing looked or behaved like the objects seen the night before. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Canada – Shuttle Shaped UFO Triangle



WEST DUBLIN, N.S. -- The object was heading northwest, up the LaHave River toward Bridgewater, on December 17, 2003, at 11:30 AM. The object witnessed by two 40 year old males was described as shuttle shaped, but flying upside down with something, perhaps a rudder, pointing downward. The object was triangular shaped and reflecting sunlight. It was observed for ten minutes, moving quite slowly and across the wind [easterly] and estimated at 7,500 feet and crossed over the witnesses. It was the size of a dime at arms length. No sound. Thanks to Sheldon MacLeod-radio announcer CKBW, Bridgewater.



HONEY MOON BAY (Lake Cowichan, Vancouver Island) - On January 4, 2004, about 5:45 PM, the witness saw bright white lights flying low over the tree tops on the mountain behind his residence. There are no roads of any kind up on the mountain. There is a large canyon which cuts through the mountain side where some of these lights were being observed. A pilot would have been crazy to fly an aircraft so low in hazardous conditions. The lights were moving slowly and vanished when he went to grab his binoculars. The light traveled north down the mountain towards his direction. As it drew closer to the lower part of the mountain it turned to the west and quickly disappeared. Similar bright lights were seen on January 1, 2004. and two years earlier. Thanks to Brian Vike, Directorhbccufo@telus.net

Netherlands - Massive Flying Triangle



ALMELO, Overijssel -- A 47-year old witness was walking a dog outside on Sunday, January 11, 2004, around 8:15 PM, when he saw a huge massive triangle-shaped object. At the moment of the sighting the sky was very clear and the stars were very clearly visible. The huge triangle with red lights on each of the three corners. The witness states, "In the middle of the object there were five lights in a small triangle, there were three indigo blue-colored lights in the middle, and two red lights on each side. The wind blew suddenly very hard from another direction possibly caused by the craft. There were no engine sounds.



The craft moved slowly from the east to the west with two bright white sphere lights on top." The object was very big, much bigger than a jet and was 250 meters distant and a height of also 250 meters. It was moving slowly at a constant speed of 30 km/h as it passed overhead the witness. When the object had passed the witness, he noticed that above the object it had a hilly shape and on top of that 2 sphere-shaped bright lights. The sighting caused some psychological side effects: "I came home nervously and stayed in that condition for a couple of hours. I had a strange, restless feeling. During the sighting I was for a moment frightened, a kind of panic almost," He also reported the sighting to the Air Force Base Twente, but they said they don't do anything with the report. However, even though it was Sunday, a half hour later he could hear fighter jets fly over! Thanks to:

Drawing made by witness.


Australia – Four Dull Glowing Orange Lights



ADELAIDE – Two witnesses observed on January 4, 2004, 12:30 AM, on the Main North Road near Parafield Airport four dull glowing orange lights hovering over the area. Mark age 23, and his wife Elizabeth stopped the car and got out for a better look. At first the objects were hovering in the shape of the Southern Cross. After maneuvering backwards and forwards for a while they formed a line, one after the other. During this time they flashed a little and moved off into the distance. One faded out and then they all faded. This is interesting because Adelaide does have a curfew on take-offs and landings (11.00pm at night). Conclusion: Garbage bags or balloons cannot go back and forth! Thanks to Debbie Payne AURA - AUFORN and Diane Harrison -Australian Skywatch Director

"Global Implications of the UFO Reality" book



David E. Twichell writes: “How will humankind react when full disclosure of the alien presence in our world is finally released? Why has official secrecy been perpetuated for so many years? Is the UFO phenomenon a modern myth or have they always been with us? What are the credentials of those who insist “we are not alone in the universe.” These and many other provocative questions are addressed. Chilling scientific evidence demonstrates the urgency for full disclosure – NOW! On that historic day, there is no element of the human experience that will remain unaffected.

Mars Muck "What I Really See Is Mud,"



Mars muck "What I really see is mud," suggests Gilbert Levin, a former Mars Viking life detection experimenter in the 1970s. He is now Executive Officer for Science at Spherix Incorporated in Beltsville, Maryland. My recent thoughts too! Levin said that the formation of liquid water can happen under the environmental conditions of Mars. Indeed, that water can even exist in liquid form on the surface of the red planet. Furthermore, the detection by NASA’s Mars Odyssey of the widespread presence of near-surface ice means liquid water is on the Martian surface.



"Liquid water is generally acknowledged to be necessary for the presence of life on Mars," Levin said, hence the importance of addressing the issue that the so-called Magic Carpet has raised on Mars, he said. Levin added: "If it looks like muck, and it puddles like muck, and it tracks like muck -- it must be muck." Thanks to SPACE.com.





Editor’s Note: If NASA reveals there is life in space, it opens a Pandora’s Box of questions. Perhaps that’s why the most recent Mar’s Lander carries no equipment to test for life. It seems very strange that we spend millions to send probes to Mars, and that they do not contain at least tests for microbian life. The lander landed in some mud that would be ideal for testing. I wonder why there is a program to make the public think Mars is absolutely
dead? The lander equipment is essentially designed to find water, since it landed in the mud, it is successful in its endeavor. Here On Earth water mixed with salts tend not to freeze at 0 centigrade. The more salt generally the lower the temperature. Although, Mars temperatures are low, the Viking Landers 1 & 2, as well as Pathfinder, found Mars Soil to be very salty. Other factors such as a low atmosphere, natural anti-freeze, and direct sunlight may cause the frost or ice to liquefy and create mud on Mars. Where there is mud there is likely to be life. Norm Bryden who has studied Mars images for twenty years has sent some spectacular images that seem to show vegetation and structures. See: www.georgefiler.com/





Europe's Eye On Mars From Mars Express

The European Space Agency’s (ESA's) Mars Express was successfully inserted into orbit on Christmas Day 2003, and is already sending back spectacular close-up High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) images. The High-Resolution camera is the best sent to Mars to search for the geological features that betray the presence of water and look for ancient oceans. MARSIS will make the first ever sub-surface investigation of Mars, using radar to penetrate down to three or four kilometers below the surface. It may even reveal underground lakes of ice or water. It is a prime candidate for future manned exploration, and even colonization.

Conversation With My Mom



Now that I’m older I recognize that my own Mother Francis Filer has much more wisdom than I previously recognized. In recent years she lost her eyesight and listens to talking books most of the day. She turns 93 on January 27, 2003, and is quite alert and pleasant. She has amazing good spirits and lives in a Nursing Home that costs $4500 a month. I asked how do you cope with being blind, broke, and old?



She stated, “I wake up each morning and make up my mind that it’s a beautiful world each day.” I can remember the good times and the bad. I feel much better when I see in my mind’s eye a beautiful world and the happier times. She makes up her mind to be more contented rather than sad. She spends much of her day listening to good books, or praying for her two sons.



Even though blind, she has many new friends, so I asked her how she gets these friends. She remembers the scriptures advice when she goes to meet new friends, “Lord, I’m not proud and haughty, I don’t think of myself as better than others. I don’t tend to “know it all.” I am quiet now before the Lord, just as a child who is weaned from the breast. Yes, my begging has been stilled.”

Psalms 131.



I told my Mother I have started telling about her in my weekly files. She saw a UFO in her backyard in Western Springs, Illinois hovering above the electric wires in the summer of 1965. She told me UFOs and God are real. The Bible says we were created to worship God, let us create them in our image. Some how its all tied together, the UFOs are here for Earth’s most precious commodity...the spark of life, our DNA, or perhaps our souls. From the moment of fertilization all human chromosomes are present, after three weeks the baby’s heart begins to beat, at about six weeks brain waves can be detected and most organs are in place. About 30% of all babies are aborted. If someone wanted to collect life on our planet, the US alone has one and half million abortions a year. Some tests indicate the soul has a weight of a few grams. She asked me to give her love to all of you.



New Hampshire - Three Possible Communicating UFOs


HAMPTON-MANCHESTER – The witnesses were driving back from Portsmouth and as they got on to 101 West, at 5:41 PM, on January 1, 2004, they saw a hovering bright white light to the south. My mother-in-law, my wife and I tried to catch it by taking some back roads south, but as we got close, it moved away. We went back to the highway and continued to Manchester. The object sometimes was even with us, went ahead and even in back of us. When we got to Epping area, a small flashing red light appeared to the right and another in front of us.



They would appear and reappear randomly. At one point, the flashing reds changed their flash pattern and the bright white light to the south dimmed to almost nothing, and changed to an orange color. Then, changed to a flashing red light, disappeared and then reappeared as bright as before. We lost track of the flashing reds, but the bright white continued to dim and rebright and looked to be positioned over Massabesic Lake in Manchester, where we have seen UFOs hover before. We gave up the chase at this point. All three looked like they could have been stars, but they moved. We have witnessed UFOs before and were actually chased by a UFO and at it was right over us. I was convinced. Thanks to Peter Davenport



Massachusetts – Green Descending Fireball

BEVERLY – The witness reports seeing thirty of more white disks fly across the sky over Lynch Beach Park at 9:33 AM, on January 10, 2004. They appeared to land somewhere in the forest near Lynch Beach Park. I am really scared right now. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous. Thanks to Peter Davenport



BURLINGTON – The observer was driving home at 12:45 AM on January 14, 2004, on Route 128, when a little way down the highway he saw a descending green fireball with a tail that seemed to disappear as it neared the tree line. He states, “It really caught me by surprise; the sighting was not that long and the fireball was green, which I thought was really odd.” Thanks to Peter Davenport



Connecticut - Two Triangular Craft Seen

WEST HARTFORD – The eye witness, who is an avid sky watcher, was driving south on Trout Brook Drive around 10 PM on January 7, 2004, and saw two very bright lights in the sky, hovering and moving slowly only 300 feet above the ground. The moon was full, high in the sky and the object was hovering slowly in a sort of circular motion. One of the objects started moving away and I lost sight of it, so I focused on the other. I had to turn my car around and follow it and as I got closer I could see a triangular shaped form with three white lights on each corner of the triangle and a few blinking red lights on it.



I pulled my car over to the side of the road, as did a bunch of other people, to try to get a better look. I rolled my window down to see if I could hear anything, but it was completely silent. If it was a plane or helicopter, it was close enough that I would have definitely heard something. At this point it was much lower, probably 75-100 feet off the ground. It hovered and moved slowly and I continued to watch it for another couple minutes until it disappeared behind the tree line and I lost sight of it. Because of the lighting on the ground, I had a bit of a difficult time trying to decipher the dimensions, but I would have to guess that it was about 20 to 25 feet in length and about 10 feet in height. It looked like it was black, but being dark, I'm not completely sure. Thanks to Peter Davenport



New York - Triangular Object Flying on New Years Eve

MATTITUCK – At 11:10 PM, on New Years Eve, the witness looked out the window and a white triangular object flying through the sky caught his eye. There was a black circle on the bottom of it. The witness states, “I only got a few seconds look as it went past the trees moving fairly slow; but it seemed to be fairly big from the view I got of it." Thanks to Peter Davenport



ROCHESTER -- On December 30, 2003, at 6 PM, a brother and sister were watching TV when a disk shaped UFO flew past the window. The disk was glowing brilliant yellow and made no sound. They ran outside to the porch and the UFO was about 500 feet away. The observers report, “It stayed there and we got my Mom and she also thought that it was a UFO.” My sister got the binoculars and we saw three lights, yellow, white, and red in a horizontal line above our house. It slowly moved to the east and my sister and I ran to a nearby field where it disappeared into the dark sky. Thanks to Peter Davenport



CORAM -- It was getting late Sunday night on December 28, 2003, when two friends driving on Middle Country Road east to Coram, saw a bright light at 11:10 PM. We passed over North Ocean Avenue and saw it getting brighter but still in the same position. I pointed it out to my friend and then looked behind us. The object was about 3/4 of a mile away from us and about 1600 feet high behind the tree line. The object made no sound! We pulled over but lost sight of the object, then saw it about two miles away from us. It looked like a triangle with three lights at each tip and one light in the middle, so we observed this object for about 30 more seconds. It looked like it rotated 90 degrees and took on a Y shape and faded away. It flew two miles in six seconds. Thanks to Peter Davenport



New Jersey – Light Causes Power Failure?




OLDBRIDGE – The power went out three times, so the observer went outside to see that the whole neighborhood was dark on December 23, 2003, at 9:30 PM. It was odd because there was no storm. Then, a glowing light changing color from green to white flew east, reversed, then very quickly went southeast. Then, from where the first one appeared, a second craft appeared on a more direct path as if in pursuit of the first. Both were changing speed and color. What I saw last night was unbelievable. Thanks to Peter Davenport



HARMONY TOWNSHIP -- The evening was partly cloudy, but stars were visible on December 29, 2003, at 6 PM. The object was first seen between tree branches on the lower edge of the horizon. The object was blinking red and white and moving in an unfamiliar fashion. It did not move like a plane or helicopter. It hovered and flitted around in a zigzag. After a few minutes of this, the object shot straight up in the sky, and hovered there. Then the color of the lights changed. The lights initially were blinking at the back, once it started moving over my house, there were red and white lights blinking in a chasing light type fashion across the front of the object. The oddest thing was, there was absolutely no noise whatsoever from this object. It was dead silent. Thanks to Peter Davenport



North Carolina - Large Hovering Object with Flashing Lights


FOUR OAKS -- On January 4, 2003, at 7 PM, the observer saw a bright light behind his home and at first thought it was the moon in the northern sky. He looked east and saw the real moon. He grabbed his binoculars and saw an extremely large gold-silver colored saucer with a definite dome on the top. The observer states,” Looking through the binoculars, I could see flashing lights at the top, bottom and on the left side." He ran and got a video camera and telephoned others to come out and see the object. I was able to get the object on videotape. After a few minutes of watching the object, it began to move very slowly to the east where it went behind some trees and out of sight. Thanks to Peter Davenport



Florida – Triangle Shape With Sparking Flashing Lights



TAMPA -- Prior to the football game between Iowa and Florida four military jets, and six other aircraft flew over the stadium at 10:45 AM, on New Years Day 2004. The aircrafts noise alerted this retired person of 34 years with the Department of the Army to grab his Nikon 10X50 6 degree glasses to get a better view of the action. He saw a military sky jumper parachuting into the stadium about a mile away when he noticed a UFO. He stated, “It was triangular shaped with sparking flashing lights at each tip that flew north, and was just barely visible due to heavy clouds in his area of flight. The other aircraft activities were performing in perfect VFR condition for viewing. I am 71 years old,. This is my first UFO report, ever. I have never witnessed such an aircraft configuration as the one I just reported. The bright lights at each tip appeared as sparking. Thanks to Peter Davenport




Ohio – Three Saucers Rims Were Seen




BEAVERCREEK – The witnesses saw the vapor trail of an airplane that seemed to be heading straight down toward the earth on December 26, 2003, at 3 PM. We stopped our vehicle, as it appeared that a crash was near. The "plane" suddenly made a right angle turn and stopped. The witnesses state, “What we could see was the "edge" of a "saucer" that was diagonal in the sky with the top, left side higher than the right lower side.” It was easily seen in a clear sky about as bright as a plane's vapor trail on a clear day. The object slowly changed its position, but never lost its "brightness".



Then we saw another object do the exact same apparent plunge to the earth and make the exact same turn and the two "disc edges" remained in the sky. Since they were just sitting in the sky, we drove the few miles left to our hostess’ house and told them all to go outside. The four of us, who observed this event, jumped into the car again and drove until we could see this phenomenon again. While we were parked, a third phenomenon occurred exactly like the first two. We saw three separate occurrences, but never saw more than two discs together. There were four people in the vehicle. A woman 67, a woman 41, a boy 7 years old and a boy 3 years old. All of us saw it and the 7 year old was frightened by what was clearly observed by all of us. Thanks to Peter Davenport



WHEELERSBURG -- A bright light that changed colors from red, orange, blue, white in the sky was seen along the Ohio River on January 15, 2004. The object traveled from north to south very slowly over a period of 90 minutes then disappeared. This object first appeared in the summer of 2003, on several different occasions. We have seen the object twice this week. The object had no sound. Thanks to Peter Davenport



FOSTORIA -- George Ritter sends another photo of a UFO over the neighboring farm. These craft seem to be able to disappear and appear at will a number of yards away. It is like there are two tubs of water, the left tub is full and the water moves to the second tub. This happens at tremendous speed and the cameras seem too slow to catch the movement.




Indiana – Investigating Sighting by Three Police Officers



HUNTINGTON -- Roger Sugden who is a MUFON investigator writes, “I was the first to look into the Huntington UFO affair. I went to Huntington the very next day after the story in the Herald-Press. I had two MUFON investigators with me. Doug Egolf, and Gene White. We talked with the editor of the paper to verify the facts of the story, then went to the police station and talked with one of the police officers who was an eye witness. We found him to be very credible and perplexed at what he had seen. The newspaper report stated, “Officer Chip Olinger was warming up his car December 26, 2003, when he reported seeing a circular object in the sky and radioed officers Greg Hedrick and Randy Hoover, who also saw it. All three say they watched as the object moved out of the northwest, drifted toward a church steeple, then shot straight north without a sound in an encounter that lasted less than a minute about 2:30 PM. The trio describes the object as about the size of a hot air balloon or a backyard trampoline. They said it was low enough in the sky that Olinger thought it might crash into the steeple."



“We were not able to talk with the other officers, or the other eye witness who is a pilot who viewed the object from his car, and told the police officer that it was very low, below 1000 feet, and that even in good daylight, he could not identify what it was, also that its size was larger than a Cessna aircraft.” We talked with another man who claims he saw a hover disc Mylar balloon, however, this has been ruled out due to the difference in the times that the objects were seen. The investigation is ongoing and I can be reached for comment at or at 260 489 0767. An interesting note: The land that the church is built on was given to the church by Miami Chief Richardville. Perhaps it was an old sacred site, and he knew that it would remain so by giving it to the church. Thanks to Roger Sugden ASD/CFI MUFON IN grog25@maplenet.net





Illinois - UFO Sighting in Downtown Chicago

CHICAGO -- At almost exactly 10:30 PM on December 28, 2003, the witness saw a UFO in downtown Chicago next to the lake, a few hundred feet from the Buckingham Fountain pathway. It looked like it was hovering over the Shed Aquarium and moved very quickly and maneuvered around as if it were a toy plane being flown. The lights on the UFO seemed to blink, but it was definitely not a plane. There were broken up clouds across the sky, as if they were providing protection from being seen. When I made it back into my apartment, on Michigan Avenue. I noticed a plane going very fast across the sky, toward the lake. At 11:15 AM., December 29, 2003, there was a helicopter that flew just over the buildings, which is VERY low and very unorthodox considering the terrorist threats. Thanks to Peter Davenport



Texas - A triangular Object at a Low Level

EL PASO – The witness was coming from med school in Juarez, Mexico at 6:35 PM, on January 12, 2004, and entering Executive Boulevard he saw a strange object. I was at a stoplight and looked up to the mountain area and saw a radio tower that looked slightly big. The tower was moving and now it was a floating triangular object. I do live around a military base called Fort Bliss and they have helicopters but you will always hear them. There was no way it could have been a plane. It flew straight then zigzagged. The lights emanating from this object weren’t too bright but were definitely blinking. I had another eyewitness who was in a car next to my car. I rolled down my window to ask him if he saw what I saw. He was perplexed. He said he couldn’t believe what he saw and he said he didn’t know what it was. I tried to chase this object but couldn’t catch up. Thanks to Peter Davenport

Montana – Green Pulsating Orb

HELENA -- On his way to work at 4:10 AM, on December 29, 2003, the witness saw a pulsating, green orb descending diagonally downward. The pulsating orb had a large bright center with its edge brightness kind of looking misty or foggy. The green orb pulsated slowly but it descended very rapidly. It disappeared before it touched the ground. Thanks to Peter Davenport

Arizona - Large Bright White Light Over Downtown Phoenix

PHOENIX – A couple noticed the very bright large white light on January 6, 2003, at 6:40 PM, in the southwest night sky. It was half as high above the downtown buildings as the planes after they level off from Sky Harbor. The object was so big and so bright it grew dimmer very gradually untill it just faded out from view about ten minutes. There were no blinking lights, just one bright white light about ten times brighter and larger than any typical star in the sky, but there were no other stars in the sky at the this time. The light never appeared to move, it just faded out. It seemed to just "hang" there. Thanks to Peter Davenport

Nevada - Large Bright White Circular Object

LAKE TAHOE -- On January 3, 2004, at 6:30 PM, an object was moving at a fairly rapid speed at a low angle along the mountain ridge less than a mile away. It was very bright, substantial white light and easily visible. About half way through the observation where was a pendant shaped iridescent (light red to blue) expulsion from the object (like a trail or gas explosion), which only lasted a moment, while the object continued on as it had originally appeared then disappeared behind the ridge.

If it were that big there would have been an explosion or hit someplace? Anyway the strangest thing I have ever seen in the sky. I have a master’s degree in the physical/earth sciences. I have talked to a relative in the Air Force (who launches satellites) about space junk as a possibility--he says it wasn't junk. Thanks to Peter Davenport




Canada -- Black Triangular Craft With Green/Red Lights


VANCOUVER -- It was Christmas night, after 6 PM, and the witness was warming up his car when in the distance, above buildings, a very bright white light appeared. This light looked like a really big star, or a helicopter searchlight in the sky traveling north. As the object was above the small lake, I could now see the underside of the craft and I am positive that it was triangular in appearance, black/stealth in color. The lights that I remember seeing were red/greens, they might have been blue, also. At this point, the craft had been traveling in a straight line, but after it had passed the lake and was almost straight above me, it veered left (east) and I am positive that a regular passenger plane would not act in this manner. I chased the object a few blocks and the triangular nature was evident still. The object was now hidden behind trees and I gave up the chase.



England - Big and Blue Teardrop Things in The Sky

LONDON – The witnesses were sitting on the bank near the river, on December 29, 2003, at 8:38 PM, when an object appeared in the sky, then another four appeared. It was strange. They hovered there and glowed blue before they flew away. Thanks to Peter Davenport



Netherlands –



HOOFDDORP -- (near Amsterdam) A 26-year-old woman witness on December 8, 2003, at 9:15 PM, saw a strange delta-shaped object on a night with some clouds and it was freezing. I was walking the dog in a field nearby and suddenly I got this strong urge to look up to the sky and then I saw this object. It was a neon-pink delta shaped object with a small triangle-shaped tail, totally illuminated. It was entirely luminously-pink and I couldn't spot any lights. The tail was a bit light pink-colored. The object had a light tail, that was somewhat lighter-colored than the object itself. The object suddenly disappeared behind the clouds. The light tail disappeared almost the same moment. It looks like the Oz Factor turned up during the sighting: It was bizarre, that I just looked up in these 5 seconds, you usually don't look up that soon if you're walking the dog. It was extremely quiet during the sighting, and when the object was gone I suddenly could hear the planes again. I was totally engaged in this sighting, even when the sighting ended. The witness saw a delta-shaped object, that was considerable larger than a jet at that height (1500m). The witness' dog, an American Stafford just walked on during the sighting, although he noticed that his boss behaved somewhat strange. I could have looked at it for hours. I will from now on keep my camera in readiness, I would have liked to record this one. The witness made a drawing of the object she witnessed (see attachment). Thanks to Toine Trust Site Admin UFOPlaza Editor UFOPlaza Nieuwsbrief site: www.UFOPlaza.nl mail: ganzEgal@UFOPlaza.nl





Norway - UFO With Outer Circle and Two Inner Circles

KERI – The six witnesses were walking home when they saw a blue light circling around in the sky, about 100 meters above their heads. The married couple with four kids saw the lights slowly circling around. The object had one outer circle and two inner circles, and it was slowly moving north. There was a sound similar to a fog signal, given at short intervals. I couldn't see any physical shape of the object other than the rotating lights. As they entered their home the alarm sounded even though there should be a 25 seconds delay after opening the door. I took some pictures with my digital camera, but the batteries soon went out of power, also, when replacing them with new ones. The object was almost stationary in the sky at the same height just outside my house. We found more batteries and managed to take one more photo before they lost power. After taking that picture the object moved closer with the side pointing about 45 degrees upwards.



Sweden – Circular Object



OLMSTED -- We where walking home at 6:20 PM, on January 3, 2004, when we saw a circular object in the sky. The object flew very quickly across the sky and then disappeared without a trace. The sky was very foggy (we could hardly see the moon) so we believe that it couldn't have been a falling star, but something else. Thanks to Peter Davenport

India - A Bright Show of a UFO




SUTRA -- The witnesses were standing on the terrace looking at the full moon around 7:55 PM, when a saucer shaped object with whitefish color was observed on the northeast horizon. It was shining very brightly, and rather unusual. I can’t confidently say whether it was a fireball or a UFO. It passed by in just for 45-50 seconds. My friend who was with me also witnessed the saucer and also questioned what was it. Thanks to Peter Davenport

Australia - White/Blue Sphere Hovers Above Boat




HARDWICK BAY, YORK PENINSULA – The witnesses were fishing for sharks about 100-500 meters off the shore when they noticed a strange object hovering above their boat on December 25, 2003, at 11 PM. It was a bright white/blue sphere, with strange magnetic affects such as metal hooks floating in the air. After about 10-20 seconds it seemed to just vanish in a flash of light.

"Global Implications of the UFO Reality" book



David E. Twichell writes: “How will humankind react when full disclosure of the alien presence in our world is finally released? Why has official secrecy been perpetuated for so many years? Is the UFO phenomenon a modern myth or have they always been with us? What are the credentials of those who insist “we are not alone in the universe.” These and many other provocative questions are addressed. Chilling scientific evidence demonstrates the urgency for full disclosure – NOW! On that historic day, there is no element of the human experience that will remain unaffected.

European Space Agency’s Claims There Is Water On Mars



European Space Agency’s Mars Express is already sending back spectacular close-up High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) images and have announced there is water on Mars. Mars Express detected ice at the Red Planet's south pole, mission officials at Darmstadt, Germany, said Friday. "We have already identified water vapor in the atmosphere," scientist Vittorio Formisano said. "We have identified water ice on the soil on the south polar caps." The High-Resolution camera is the best sent to Mars thus far to search for the geological features that betray the presence of water and look for ancient oceans. It will make the first ever sub-surface investigation of Mars, using radar to penetrate down to three or four kilometers below the surface. It may even reveal underground lakes of ice or water. .




Newly released ESA images reveal leakage of water from crater walls.


Mars “Opportunity” Lander Shows Blue Skies



The twin rover Mars Lander called Opportunity landed successfully on Mars on January 24, 2004, at 12:05 PM EST, and soon began beaming images back to Earth from showing as we predicted Mar’s blue skies. Video released to the news media for the first time showed blue skies on national TV. NASA has apparently decided to show the actual sky color rather than the red tinted version shown up to now. Blue skies indicate atmosphere much greater than previously thought. The solar-powered rover is equipped with tools to scratch and drill into rocks and to examine the soil. Opportunity should operate for at least the next three months to look for water. Both Mars Landers have landed in areas that appear to have water near the surface. Just when the Spirit Lander was supposed to do its first drilling into the pyramid-shaped rock in the Gusev Crater its data stream shut down. Spirit has not sent any images or scientific data since January 21st, when it discovered a rock with a square hole. Some people are asking why the Lander shut down just when it might find water or other interesting artifacts? Don from Georgia claims he has obtained images from the Spirit that are “not to be released to the public” showing why Spirit shut down. :)









THE MONOLITHS OF MARS



Norman Monteith Bryden writes, “I have spent thousands of hours studying the Mars Global Surveyor images. I am a graduate of Control Data Institute for Computer Technology. I have had love of science my entire life. This and my curiosity has driven me to great lengths. I think that I have discovered evidence of intelligent life on Mars. George Filer of Filer's Files has been very kind to me. He has put up on his site slideshows of my work. By clicking on the link below it will take you to the images. When you get to the web page click on the numbers below the introduction and a slide show will start. The images will change about every 10 seconds. To the left of each slide show are thumbnails that can also be accessed for that slide set. These images show evidence of running water, vegetation, animals and even full blown cities on the planet Mars. Thanks to Norman Bryden www.georgefiler.com/



Vermont - Looked Like a Football Stadium Flood Lights

CORINTH -- The witness cannot explain what he saw after seeing an exploding star in the east as I was driving home at 7:20 PM, on January 20, 2004. Backing out of his neighbor's driveway in a small meadow about 75 feet in front of him and directly straight up, about 100 feet high was what looked like a light fixture one would see at a football stadium. The witness states, “It had three or four large lenses, (side by side) each a medium-bright glowing white light beam that blinded me, but just hung there and was bright and glared.” I looked beyond the side of the lights to glimpse at what was holding this up there. What I saw was an outline showing that it curved away and behind the "set of lights". I pulled my car ahead and to the side of the road trying to keep an eye on it to get a better look through my passenger side window....when it just disappeared. Thanks to Peter Davenport NUFORC



New York - Metallic Object Passes Overhead



SARATOGA – A married couple were southbound on I 87 at the 32 mile marker just south of Saratoga NY on January 10, 2004, 3:30 PM, when they saw a distant object that they thought to be a hot air balloon in the distance. It was a clear cold night and unlikely for a hot air balloon to fly in temperatures 5 degrees above zero. The shape of the object changed and they were closing on the object faster than would be expected if it were a hot air balloon. The husband states, “As it passed overhead my wife was able to crane her neck and look up and see a disk shaped object, metallic in color, and not entirely smooth.” The object did not have lights. At the closest point the object appeared about the size of a quarter. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



New Jersey – Exotic Propulsion Aircraft and Oval UFO



TURNERSVILLE - Evelyn Galson called to tell me she had just taken a digital image of a strange diamond shaped craft or flying pumpkin seed over her home on January 22, 2004 at 4 PM in clear blue skies. The craft flew across the entire sky from west to east in a matter of seconds leaving behind a long white contrail. Other craft were seen in the sky over Philadelphia a few miles away. She often takes photos related to her work in the Coast Guard Auxiliary.



Editor’s Note: The US is believed to operate advanced reconnaissance aircraft to follow on to the SR-71 aircraft. The image shows an elongated diamond shaped aircraft with dimensions estimated at 70 by 110 feet. Jet engines appear to be buried in the fuselage and propel the vehicle at supersonic speeds, probably in the range of 5000 miles per hour. The diamond shaped vehicle was white in color and likely generates intense heat due to the friction encountered. The craft appeared to fly above the 35,000 feet civilian air traffic in the Philadelphia area. The flying pumpkin seed could achieve hypersonic flight by pumping fuel from its midsection into a cone of air bounded by its shock wave. Popular Mechanics, carried an article by Gregory Pope, "America's New Secret Aircraft," in December 1991. The aircraft did not seem to have pulsed detonation engines that leave a puff of smoke or donut-on-a-rope contrails. Congress appropriated $1.5 billion to develop and test a single high-speed high-altitude aircraft. This may be the first known image of a the advanced Exotic Propulsion Aircraft. Some estimates indicate these aircraft can reach 36,000 kilometers per hour (roughly Mach 36).


Pennsylvania – Three UFOs and Tracks in the Snow



IVYLAND – The witness saw UFO's outside his bedroom window on January 16, 2004, at 11:11 PM. There appeared to be three UFOs in the sky that night. The next morning we found unexplainable looking foot prints or tracks in the snow in our yard. Also there was a slice chopped off one of the trees. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Delaware – Climbing Lights

ELSMERE – The witness was coming home from shopping on January 10, 2004, and when he got out of his car and turned to his left he saw three craft flying overhead in a straight line at 5:35 PM. The witness states, “I pulled out my binoculars and saw they were round and had no tracer or underbelly flashing lights.” They did not make a sound. I waited for a few minutes before one went left and out of sight and the other two shot up and disappeared from my sight. He remarked, “I grew up in a military family and I know my planes and helicopters very well enough to say that these were not military or civilian.” Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



North Carolina - Disk Shaped Craft

BARCO -- The observer was driving along NC-158 going about 70 MPH on January 15, 2004, when he saw a white object fly over the top of his car 12:30 AM. It seemed to hover up the road and the flew off into the woods, so he thought it may have been an owl. A minute later, an object approached from the left shot out in front of the car and hovered like before above the streetlights, but seemed to be producing a soft, white, pulsing glow. After a few seconds, it dashed off eastward. It was shaped like a disk but on either end had one, wavy, streamer like "tentacle" that also seemed to glow. When the craft was moving, the tentacle would flow behind it. When the craft hovered, the tentacles went out to the sides, in line with the craft like you would see the wrappers ends on the end of a piece of hard candy but longer. They would move like a flag does in a calm wind. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Mississippi - Large, Cylinder Shaped Craft

BILOXI -- A large cylinder shaped craft was seen hovering above the Gulf of Mexico about a mile from the city on January 8, 2004. The witness was driving east on I-90 and looked out over the Gulf and saw a long dark shape that was maybe 50 feet above the water at 4:45 PM. It was a good distance away so I couldn't make out any distinct shape. I watched it for more than 5 minutes and it never moved. It just sat there. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

Illinois - A Bright Light Moving Unbelievably Fast



PEORIA – The witness was driving her car with her aunt on January 7, 2004, at 3:30 PM, when they saw a brilliant light extremely high in the sky in mid-afternoon. It seemed to bright to be a plane although the sun may have been reflecting off it. Ten seconds later, it was further away and the brightness faded, and then it was gone. The whole sighting was less than 20 seconds. It could have been some sort of aircraft of ours, but I have never heard of anything we have invented that moves that fast; it was gone without a trace before we had a chance to try to follow it across the sky. Thanks to Peter Davenport

SOHO OBSERVATORY – The observer often reviews the SOHO photos for anomalies that would otherwise be hidden by the Sun's brightness. On January 21, 2004, at exactly 7:00 AM the SOHO "blue spectrum" still shot captured the unmistakable image of a huge craft just above and to the left of the sun. I used Microsoft's Picture 7.0 to enlarge the section of the photo to 999%, the results were truly amazing! There is no longer any doubt in my mind. Though our government attempts to restrict public knowledge of these craft, it was their hardware, their physical evidence, and their website that published the data confirming its existence.

Arkansas - Three Lit Objects Travel From A Satellite

ST. GEORGE ISLAND -- While on a cold starlit evening walk on January 11, 2004, two friends witnessed three lighted objects appearing to come from a star/satellite in the southern sky at 7:10 PM. The star or satellite appears every night at about 18 degrees up and south southwest and is bright compared to other stars. It does not blink and twinkle like a star would so I am assuming it is a satellite. Within a 15 minute period we saw three brightly lit objects appear to come from this satellite. There was a space of about 5 to 8 minutes between each light, they would head in a slow southerly direction and each one would gradually become dim and fade out, the skies eventually clouded over ending our observations.

Texas - Extraterrestrial Edge Helps Balance Sheet



The Houston Chronicle by Craig Copetas writes, “A galactic mystery hovers over the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos, Switzerland: How many of the 2,280 global leaders, including 31 heads of state, gathered in this Alpine resort conduct business with extraterrestrials?” This is no whimsy for Davosians. It's on the agenda of the annual powwow of the influential and affluent who will ask forum participants such as Vice President Dick Cheney, Coca-Cola Chairman Douglas Daft and De La Rue Chief Executive Ian Much, if the aliens have landed and are collaborating with them to concoct government policy. "The extraterrestrials have yet to make contact with me," said Much, who will help moderate tonight's dinner seminar (closed except to forum participants) on The Conspiracy Behind Conspiracy Theories: Have Extraterrestrials Made Contact With Government Leaders?



The British moneymaker is confident — at least for now — that De La Rue remains the largest non-government printer of bank notes in the Milky Way. "If the aliens are here," Much reckoned, "I'd absolutely expect them to call me to have their currency printed." Despite the twilight zone topic arching many an eyebrow along the snow-covered strip of fashionable hotel bars, forum officials maintain their five-day program on Partnering for Security and Prosperity requires an unambiguous examination of extraterrestrial presence on Earth. "The panelists are the best in their domain; they all have expertise in specific fields," explained Philippe Bourguignon, the forum's co-chief executive officer. "The themes and sessions at Davos reflect the global agenda." And the public's pulse.



A 1996 Gallup Poll found that 71 percent of Americans believe the government knows more about UFOs than it has disclosed. A Roper poll found that some 80 percent of those questioned think Wall Street and Washington are hiding knowledge of extraterrestrial contact. And the Internet search engine Google turns up as many Web pages dedicated to UFOs as it does for investment banking. "It is possible that UFOs really do contain aliens, and the government is hushing it up," Cambridge University physicist Stephen Hawking told British television viewers in a 1998 interview. President Bush's recent call to put a man on Mars before 2030 has swelled investor interest in exotic technologies, last week boosting the Bloomberg Aerospace Index 1.9 percent, its biggest gain since October. Earth's leaders prospecting extraterrestrial commerce as part of the forum's agenda has set off anticipation not seen among UFO analysts since Close Encounters of the Third Kind was released on DVD.

Arizona - Police See Light Moving In The Sky



QUARTZSITE – The observers were camping on January 16, 2004, and saw a bright off-white to orange light in the southeastern sky at 7:30 PM. The light was brighter than the stars and was moving towards them and it appeared to stop. He states, “As we watched, another light shot from the bottom of the main object (like a shooting star) straight towards the ground at high speed until it dissipated to nothing.” This shooting object was the same color as the main object. I went and got a video camera and by that time the main object was moving away from us and I shot footage of it going away from us until it also disappeared. I am a Detective for a Southern California Police Agency and have never seen anything before like this. We had several witnesses present and the landscape was peppered with RV'ers that must have seen the same thing. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter







Oregon – Three Lighted Objects Over The Ocean



COOS BAY -- Two witnesses saw three lighted objects on January 21, 2004, about five miles out at sea at about 6 PM. The couple reports one object was very large and high in the sky, and two were smaller. The large one had red and green lights, plus a large white light that could have been shining into the ocean. The large object maneuvered, hovered, and dropped at a high rate of speed. The other two objects did not move. The lights of all three had a scrubbing effect. Witnesses watched with binoculars. A Coast Guard helicopter headed out toward the objects.



ALOHA -- On January 21, 2004, at exactly 6:23 PM, the witness a police Officer-Reserve, and pilot was on his back patio, looking through his binoculars for his usual satellite sightings. He spotted a satellite following it's normal west to east path, but he spotted another much fainter satellite directly above it heading in the opposite direction only moving much faster. I followed it and saw it split into two. Now, following a parallel course to each other at a speed faster than satellite’s fly, it joined into one, then, split into two. They headed at a 45 degree angle away from each other, then came back to parallel each other. However, sometimes they would jump backwards and were definitely jerking and would shoot out fast then come back a little then join together and head out. I followed them until out of sight, about three minutes in all. They made the other satellite seem slow but I have been watching satellites long enough to know the difference.. moving at 90-degree angles, 45-degree angles in a split second. It was quite amazing. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Washington - Saw A Circular Bright Spot On The Ground



LANGLEY – The witness who lives on a golf course was looking down the fairway on January 18, 2004, 10 PM, where it is always pitch blackness and saw a flaming bright spot on the ground with two lights on the left, low in the sky. The lights and bright spot looked to be about 300 yards away. I thought there was a fire on the fairway. With the binoculars I saw a circle of bright light with heavy white vapors swirling within it and evaporating upward. There were two bright lights above. One light was pulsing brighter and seemed to be a spotlight on the circle. No noise. As time passed, the two lights moved slowly backwards...always low to the ground.. away from the fairway.. and the circular light with the vapors moved at the same rate...keeping the same distance apart. I watched until 02:15. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter


UK/England - Craft Went From Saucer To Teardrop Shape

DUNSTABLE -- It was a cold night on January 10, 2004, at midnight, when several student friends were walking home from the pub. They were walking down High Street when they heard a humming noise. The witnesses stated, “It was a metallic looking craft, it was in a saucer shape and was just hanging there in the air.” Then it changed shape into a teardrop shape and flew upwards at an incredible speed. Thanks to Peter Davenport NUFORC



Germany - Light Flash Turns Darkness Into Daylight



COLOGNE -- On January 21, 2004, a large light flash occurred for two seconds that was witnessed by hundreds of persons from Kaiserslautern to Wiesbaden to Koln (Cologne), at 6:35 AM. It started as a low intensity flash and suddenly became brighter. It lit up the early morning darkness like daylight. The high intensity light appeared bluish, similar to that of light emitted from a halogen car headlight or lamp. The total incident lasted no more than two seconds. A friend related German media had reported the light was caused by a meteor reentering the earth's atmosphere however, I don't know if that's been verified at this time. Thanks to Peter Davenport NUFORC



Netherlands – Flying Triangle



UTRECHT -- A 21 year old resident from Vianen witnessed a triangle-shaped object fly over at 6:55 AM, on December 12, 2003. The witness who lives along the River Lek witnessed the object from the first floor of his house and states, “I saw an extremely bright light that wasn't steady, and was kind of turbid, like an image that's distorted by a flame.” He woke up a friend and both saw the light approaching. When the object almost passed over the roof, I was able to see a large triangle-shaped wing. The wing was just as wide as long, and was surrounded by white, yellow, orange/red and green colored light with the borders relatively bright, and the bottom less bright. The object was as large as a medium-sized jet, and flew at a height of 120 meters at a speed between 100 to 140 km/h. The witness heard a strange humming sound and was emotionally touched and somewhat confused after the sighting. During the sighting the witness made a low resolution digital picture with his mobile phone, but unfortunately it didn't show much.

Conversations With My Mother on Her 93rd Birthday



My Mother says, “There probably is life on other planets because God would logically place intelligent life everywhere in hopes that they would worship him and follow his teachings.” The main teaching is to worship God and do unto others as they do unto you. This would allow all planets to live together in harmony. If we were told there was life through out the universe, I doubt it would hurt Christianity or other religions. Narrow minded people may be offended by the remark, but its a huge universe out there and I refuse to believe that we are the only ones occupying it. Whatever God saw fit to put in the universe is all part of a greater visionary plan than we know. God is much greater, omnipotent and all-powerful than most of us realize. Maybe the world would be a better place when we all come to the common understanding that all life is sacred and we need to respect it both here on earth or any where in the universe." For the UFOs to fly around and do the things they do, they must be fairly close or at least have bases near by. It seems reasonable that God has his own Air Force.



In the nursing home where my Mother lives there are many who just want to die and be left alone. She attempted to comfort another blind woman by playing her music, talking to her, and rubbing her hands to try to cheer her up. She also offered her a hearing aid since the woman was hard of hearing. Regrettably, the woman was not responsive and didn’t seem to want any help. She prefers to be unhappy, to stay in her room and eventually die. My mother attends everything such as spelling, history, and trivia, where you answer questions. She enjoys life and listens to a new book almost every day. You don’t get to die you’ve got to wait. Her thought for birthday was: “Its a great life if you don’t weaken.” Love Mom.


Soviet Army Fought UFOs


Soviet military encountered many UFOs, and established at the end of the 60s a secret laboratory for researching flying objects in the USSR. Among the laboratory’s tasks was researching anti-gravitation, but the research results were kept secret.



In 1947. Antiaircraft guns of Transcaucasian Military District fired on a flying cigar-shaped object which came from the Turkish border. The object's flying altitude was below 4,000 meters, but they failed to hit the cigar when the cigar increased its speed and flew away over the mountains. The Border District command ignored and ordered the monitors not to disclose the information that the object reached a speed up to 2000 kilometers per hour.



A similar case took place in 1984, in the Turkestan Military District. Near the city of Astrakhan air-defense system marked the ball-shaped object flying at the altitude of 2000 meters along the Caspian seashore. The object did not respond to radio communication and two fighters were launched, but they were unable to bring the object down. After being under fire, the object descended to 100 meters, and at this low altitude the planes were unable to continue firing. Despite being fired at, the object flew at slow speed. The ball passed over several military units, and was photographed. Near the city of Krasnoyarsk the military tried to bring the object down with the helicopter. However, it quickly increased its altitude so that the helicopter could not reach it. After firing all its supply of shells, the helicopter landed, and the ball abruptly flew in the direction of the sea and disappeared from the radar screens. In the same area a cylinder demonstrated its invulnerability. UFOs moving toward the border were attacked apparently unsuccessfully.




In 1985, near the town of Krasnovodsk the radar station under the command of Captain Valuev tracked a 1,000 meter disc-shaped object! The object was immovable, and some time later a small 5 meter disk flew out of it and then landed. Patrol boats rushed to that area, but when they closed to 100 meters, it took off and flew one kilometer away. This happened five times. Then the object flew up at a high speed to the bigger disc, which finally flew away spaceward.



In the end of June of 1971 the military could see over this area a black cigar-shaped flying object floating under the clouds at the altitude of 800 meters. The object was 25 meters long and had about 3 meters in diameter. It had neither stabilizers nor wings nor engines and was moving at the speed of 150 kilometers per hour producing no noise. In 1978, a Special Soviet military unit in the town of Mytishi was in charge of collecting data, and newly established "space troops" were designated to fight a possible threat from space.



In the beginning of August 1987, five soldiers of Leningrad Military District went to the North of Karelia region on a special mission to guard an object of unknown origin. It was found near the town of Vyborg and was 14 meters long, 4 meters wide, and 2.5 meters high. The object had neither doors no hatches, and all attempts to open its hull were unsuccessful. The military tried to break off some object parts, but were only able to take some rods from its stern. In the end of September the object disappeared from the hangar without leaving a trace. http://english.pravda.ru/science/19/94/378/11873_UFO.html







Australia -- Council Refers Photo To Government Agencies
WHITTLESEA -- An employee of this major municipality during his routine work as a traffic engineer took a photograph of a level railway crossing at Beveridge north of Melbourne using a digital camera. When it was downloaded from the camera on to a computer an object appeared in the sky on photograph. We just do not know what the object could be and would welcome any explanation. This Council believes it has an obligation to pass the image on to the relevant authorities for their consideration and investigation. The image has been referred by Council to the Chief Defence Scientist, Defence Science & Technology Organisation, and the Civil Aviation Authority. This Council has no opinion about the object. Thanks to Anastasia Wietrzychowska, Mutual UFO Network, CT and Jim Linton, Communications Officer. email: info@whittlesea.vic.gov.au




Editor’s Note: The object in the photo appears to be a flying disk
such as those that are seen and photographed thousands of times

a year around the world.

"Global Implications of the UFO Reality" book



David E. Twichell writes: “How will humankind react when full disclosure of the alien presence in our world is finally released? Why has official secrecy been perpetuated for so many years? Is the UFO phenomenon a modern myth or have they always been with us? What are the credentials of those who insist “we are not alone in the universe.” These and many other provocative questions are addressed. Chilling scientific evidence demonstrates the urgency for full disclosure – NOW! On that historic day, there is no element of the human experience that will remain unaffected.

Who Are You Going to Believe - Me or Your Own Eyes



Why Are European Space Agency Images Better?



EUROPEAN SPACE AGENCY (ESA) photos are showing blue river like canyons and valleys on Mars. These blue areas appear to be caused by possibly flowing rivers or colors retained from water that once flowed or perhaps growing algae or bacteria. Blue is also shown inside some craters. On Earth Lapis Lazuli, Blue Viteral, and the dark blue azurite is a hydrated copper carbonate indicating water. Photosynthesis pigments, and copper bearing minerals often show blue or green colors. Photosynthesis is the formation of carbohydrates in living plants from water and carbon dioxide by the action of sunlight on the chlorophyll. The blue color now being shown by ESA is a major step forward in revealing the true nature of Mars and that at least some water is present. In Western Australia stromatolites are layered rocks that form in the presence of colonies of blue-green bacteria. As sediments accumulate, they include the remnants of the bacterial corpses, which give the rock the distinctive appearance. It is doubtful that blue mineral deposits would follow the apparent riverbed so living organisms such as bacteria; algae, lichen might be responsible for the blue color. Satellite data of Earth seldom shows blue colors unless water is involved.





ESA is showing pronounced blue colors that have not been shown in NASA/JPL/MSSS photos further indicating that some kind of false coloring methods are being used. Blue color images become extremely important in proving that life exists or once existed on Mars. Many of the rocks if shown in their real colors show green patches of color indicating lichen or fungi. It appears the carbon dioxide content of the Martian atmosphere is replenished by an active microbial ecosystem. Mars organisms may be very efficient rock eaters, as evidenced by the numerous holes or pits in the rocks at the Mars landing sites.


Spirit Lander Image of Rectangular Hole


Martian microbes may secrete concentrated organic acids to bore into the rock. There appear to be chasms as they boreholes as they eat into the rock. Rock boring organisms on Earth are common, and this or other mechanisms are occurring on Mars. The new Mars Rovers are already picking up large square holes in the rocks. Additionally, the newly revealed blue coloring of the sky indicates much greater biosphere than has been admitted by NASA. Coral, shells or lichen like objects are being imaged by the Opportunity Rover and sent to me by Norman Bryden on February 2, 2004.





The book, "Mars the Living Planet" by Barry Digregorio, Dr. Gilbert Levin and Dr. Pat Straat provides disturbing information on coler on Mars. . Mr. Van der Woude says, "Both Ron Wichelman and I were responsible for the color quality control of the Viking Lander photographs, and Dr. Tomas Mutch, the Viking Imaging Team Leader told us he got a call from the NASA Administrator asking that we destroy the Mars blue sky negative created from the digital data." The images were then falsely reddened to make it appear there was no life, no green algae or lichen on the planet. Page 142. The question, “Why is NASA withholding blue colored photos from the public? Keep watching the blues.

“Two hours after the first color image (of Mars from the Viking Lander) appeared on the monitors a technician abruptly changed the image from the light-blue sky and Arizona like landscape to a uniform orange-red sky and landscape.” What Gil Levin, Ro and Patricia Straat did not know is that the order to change the colors came directly from NASA Administrator himself, Dr. James Fletcher. Page 140.



"Why was the NASA scientific community blatantly ignoring crucial scientific data that could support the notion of life on Mars?" page186



ESA photos are showing blue splotches inside craters and in valleys. In ESA photos we are seeing green and blue colors-- where in NASA/JPL/MSSS images thay are showing reddish brown. Why the discrepancy? Whose color scheme is more accurate? Billions of taxpayer dollars are being spent to send apparently false data to the public. Congress should investigate why the photos from US equipment is so poor, why it is apparently wrongly colored. In 1962, I was examining satellite photos of Earth far superior to ours in 2004. Why are not higher quality images being presented to the public? http://www.esa.int/export/mex_mm/images/17_LAN_1.jpg



Norman Bryden writes, "Here is a new image that seems to be an operation that looks like a mining camp." There is a tower structure shaped sort of like a giant stairway to the lower right. Just above this tower to the right is a cylinder. The tower and cylinder are surrounded with marks that are similar to what you would see in a strip mining operation. Further up on the photograph on the hill sides are other curious marks. These marks remind me of the giant petroglyphs of Nazca or other ancient people of Earth. They are etched into the side of the hill and you can almost make out symbols or figures. Thanks to Norman Bryden and NASA/JPL.





Results Of Detailed Analysis Of Mars Images



Christopher Montgomery, writes, “There is now solid evidence of a highly advanced civilization existing just below the surface of Mars...please review this information carefully before making any snap judgments or a hasty conclusion.” We have recently completed analysis on a number of unidentified flying objects found in recent photographs taken of the Martian sky by the "Spirit" rover. The initial discovery came as no surprise, as we have known for years that there was evidence of life on Mars and that this was a distinct possibility. These Mars UFOs are a fact of life on Mars. The Mars UFO team at uforc.com has published a series of reports to apprise you of the Martian threat. This presentation of Martian anomalies requires your immediate attention. Signs of life seem to be an omnipresent reality on Mars. The recent announcements concerning Mars made by President George Bush gives us all the more reason to give this information a careful look. We have done all of the research and exploration for you. God bless. Sincerely, Christopher Montgomery, Executive Director, UFORC International Global Network Please go to http://www.uforc.com



Anniversary of Columbia Disaster Ignores UFO Sightings



Angelic writes, “Many witnesses and even cameramen captured possible UFO activity at the time of the Shuttle disaster.” As usual this was ignored in the official investigation. I saw video at the time that certainly indicated a UFO, but it was quickly withdrawn and I was unable to get a copy. On all the major live television reports that I witnessed that day, I was intrigued by the in candescent light that surrounded the anomaly green, purple, red, and blues.



There was an aura surrounding the largest anomaly that caught my eye. The numerous points of light also seemed to have their each and own source of energy and form of flight as well. One thing I remember is that the two major points of light were exchanging rates of energy and picking up and losing speed inconsistently with a falling or burning object. The best that I can describe it was a crown shaped object with two "arms" extending out shortly then downward as if to give a landing gear affect. there was a stunning pure green burst of light surrounding it at the moment too. I was tongue tied and looked to my three friends who were also glued to the TV we all looked into each others eye's and simultaneously said, "Did you see that!?" Something that appeared extra-terrestrial. Dually noted, after that day I have only once seen the recording of that moment. Most of the pictures and recordings that are shown now (though still amazing) are the more down played moments. Thanks to Angelic.



Connecticut -- The Round, White Object Moves In A Zigzag Fashion

GUILFORD – The brother and sister were going for a hike on January 19, 2004, at 12 noon when they saw an airplane flying west to east. To the east of the airplane there was a circular, white shape that was at first flying east, but then seemed to zigzag side to side, then move vertical as well. We had to keep moving to keep it in our sight, as when we moved, trees would hamper our sight. We observed this object for about 1 minute, and both remarked how we wished we had brought our cameras today, since the snow that had fallen yesterday had made everything look so pretty. The object was much larger, because it was higher in elevation. We kept moving to keep it in view, but it either disappeared from our sight or vanished in an instant.

New Jersey – Several UFO Sightings Reported

JACKSON -- An oval UFO aircraft was observed flying at a fast speed in a circular motion with blinking red, blue, green, and white lights on January 13, 2004, at 6:30 PM. Other aircraft were following the UFO that flew left and right for an hour, until I lost sight of it behind the trees. There must have been eight other smaller aircraft, perhaps Air Force fighters flying towards the UFO. Every time they got close to the UFO, it moved faster away from them. It was scary.

LAKE HOPATCONG – The witness states, “My fiancé and I observed a triangular shaped object traveling west making a loud helicopter noise, then hovering at about 2000 feet above the lake, on January 16, 2004, at 4 AM. The triangular shape was more specifically like a science model of a molecule, 25 feet high and 25 feet wide. It had a star of many points at the center (nucleus region), which was blinking white and red light. It had an extremely bright and flashing light above this center, and two bright lights below at a 90-degree separation. The craft was moving slowly, almost hovering for a moment, and then it ascended and seemed to retract the outer lights and continue in a slow westerly direction. Further north, we observed another craft, shaped more like a plane, but the sharply pointed bulk head was all white light and there were too many flashing red and white lights for it to be a plane. The exact shape of the body of both objects, which presumably connected these lights, was too dark to ascertain. Both objects flew too low to the ground to be regulated aircraft and flew at a very slow rate. The rumbling of the triangular shaped object was intense. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

Another Mullica Hill, NJ Case



MULLICA HILL -- Investigator: Evelyn Galson writes, “I spoke to the woman in Mullica Hill and she gave me an overview of what has been going on in her and her children’s lives.” She told me that she has been visited by grays ever since she was little. She remembers seeing a small gray alien leaning over her cradle and reaching for her and lifting her out. (She learned later in life they were called grays. She has been finding marks on her body for a long time and has been seeing her physician, who told her he didn't know what could be causing them. She also has had many miscarriages, which she believes has to do with her abductions. Her little boy, who is 4 years old, has told her that they take him through the floor. She told him he was dreaming and he said, "No mommy its real, they take me through the floor" So she told him, “She believed him.” When she was little she would tell her parents about the things she was experiencing, but they wouldn't believe her. So she stopped telling them what was happening to her. In addition, every night her son wakes up at 4:00 A.M. and runs to her bedroom and wants to sleep with her. He is having trouble sleeping. Now that she has been finding marks on her children who are very young, she has decided to get some help or support. Therefore, she contacted us and we will be meeting with her. Thanks to Investigator: Evelyn Galson



Florida - Bright White, Shaped Like A Boomerang



DELTONA -- It was 12:35 PM, on January 18, 2004, when a strange craft was whiter than white was observed. As the craft came closer, it was apparent the bright white object was shaped like a boomerang. It flew straight for a while then turned and poof, it was gone. It just disappeared. This was really unbelievable. I've never seen anything like it. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Alabama – Four Bright Lights in Tree Tops



ROCK CREEK -- Coming home from the store at 7:30 PM, on January 10, 2004, a family noticed two bright lights in the sky. The couple with their two daughters got their binoculars and went out onto the back porch to see and saw an object hovering over the treetops with four bright white lights. As we continued to watch, it moved slowly to treetop level. At this time the white lights appeared to turn off and a red and blue light flickered on and off as it descended downward toward the ground and out of sight. We could hear dogs in the distance begin to bark. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Tennessee – Half Hour Light



PIGEON FORGE -- Living in North Indiana, I enjoy a web page that has a live web cam of the Smoky Mountains. I have it on my desktop at work and it is always cool to see the current weather and the view. But, last night at 11 PM, on January 11, 2004, the web cam captured a very bright light that took ½ hour or more to move across the picture. http://www2.nature.nps.gov/air/webcams/parks/grsmcam/grsmcam.htm Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Indiana - It Was Very Fast Bright, and a Circular Object


CHARESTOWN -- This object has been seen four times by a family in the last two weeks since January 15, 2004, hanging over an old ammunitions plant that is located near Jeffersonville. The family has caught it on camera twice as it hovers like a star. The witness states, “We know it's not a star, because it will fade and dim and move a little bit as well as it disappears and it's too bright among the rest of the stars. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Michigan - UFO Was Circular With Multiple Colors



LAMBERTVILLE -- On January 20, 2004, at 6:55 PM, the witness saw two circular UFOs and one had many colors. The witness and his Mother were pulling in their driveway and saw a big buck near the woods and then off in the night sky they saw a UFO. He went inside and grabbed binoculars and looked at an object positioned to the southeast, high in the night sky. At this time the witness and his stepbrother determined a circular shape with a rainbow of multiple colors that were pulsating at a rapid speed. The object stayed to the east and cycled up and down constantly, at a slow rate. Another UFO was witnessed on January 7, 2004. The stepbrother observed another bright white object to the north that was pulsating that appeared to move.



At this point, I realized that without looking through the binoculars the object was in almost the identical spot to the north with the same bright whiteness as the one I saw in the beginning of January. I looked through the binoculars and I instantly noticed that it was a circular shape and that it was pulsating bright white light. Though the only differences with the object were the shape it changed to and its movement. It moved slowly up and down but still stayed to the northern night sky. The bright white UFO changed shape but not into a triangle but into a shape without any distinct qualities. The bright white UFO started up in the sky and then ended up looking as if it was in my woods. We both watched each UFO equally and we stayed outside for about an hour and twenty minutes. The bright, white, circular UFO was much brighter than the circular colorful one in the southeastern sky. Though both moved very similar and at the same speed. They both, also, made absolutely no sound. All I know is that I've now witnessed three UFOs in the same month. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Illinois - Early Morning Green Glowing Ball Of Light

ELMHURST -- A glowing blue green sphere was observed floating south to east at about a 45° angle slowly going across the dark morning sky at 5:45 PM, on January 18, 2004, towards O’Hare Airport in Chicago. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Texas – Four Silver and One White Ship Hovering

HOUSTON -- I was returning from class at 8:25 PM, on January 13, 2004, and saw 5 bright lights (4 light blue, one brilliant white) hovering near my home. I live near the airport, so assumed planes, but it caught my attention because they never fly 5 that close together.. Never. I grew up here, and have witnessed planes my entire life. Then, I noticed that they were hovering, not moving. Therefore, I stopped my car, on the street in front of my home, and watched. Four were silver, one was bright white. They did not move, at all, and they were very close to one another. Then, I said, "Ok, I'm home you guys can leave now" and the white one gave 4 quick flashes of light, and then began to move between the other 4, which were outlying in a rough circle pattern, though not quite a circle. They were beautiful, what I could see, and seemed powerful. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



New Mexico- President Bush Jokes About UFOs



ROSWELL -- President Bush visited New Mexico for the first time and: jokes about UFOs. "I understand you have reports this morning of an unfamiliar aircraft," he said to laughter from residents who have freely adorned their town with images of green aliens.

California – Retired Police Office Takes UFO Photos



SAN MATEO -- Dan Baker writes, I was just looking at your site and the UFO pictures from Ohio. I, too, am a retired cop and for a few months now I have discovered that I can get images of anomalous objects by use of my digital camera. I’m sending a long a couple. I saw the pics on your site and thought they were very similar to what I have been getting. First pic is of an object taken near my neighbors TV antenna...notice it appears to be reflecting sunlight in the front of the object and omitting a vapor trail. Second pic I took of a small plane flying overhead...upon download to the computer I discovered two objects to the left of the plane and one to the right of the plane. I have about a hundred more like these. Thanks to Daniel Baker



LA CRESCENTA – The witness was driving down Montrose Avenue when
he saw a strange craft above him at 12:30 AM, on January 18, 2004.
He states, “The craft was very long, like a pencil, with steady green lights
on each end, and a flashing red light in the middle flying far too close to
rooftops to be a plane.” It didn't look like a plane anyway, so I started
following it down Montrose Avenue, but it was going about 55 mph,
which was faster than I dared go on a Saturday night with all the police
around. The craft turned and was going steadily up Pennsylvania Avenue,
so I followed. The craft turned again at Foothill Boulevard and there were
many civilians watching it, and one car followed it along foothill with a
video camera. The craft moved quickly and I heard no sound from it even
though it was close to rooftops. After following it for a while, I headed for
home. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter


Oregon – Two Close Lights Flying Fast and Parallel to the Ground


MEDFORD -- Two separate lights were seen flying very close to each other above the darkness of city lights streaking very fast across the sky on January 20, 2004, at 8 PM. They were perhaps 20 degrees above the horizon flying parallel to the ground from NNE to SW with a possible short tail. There was absolutely nothing audible with the event. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Washington - A Round Golf Ball With Multiple Twinkling Colors



MAPLE VALLEY -- It was a clear starry night on January 20, 2004, at 9:05 PM when the witness saw something sparkly out the corner of his eye outside the window. It was multi-colored and twinkled. He got his binoculars and saw a round golf ball-shaped thing with many colors moving around on it. I woke my husband up to come and look at it; but, when he came out on our deck to see the object, it had moved backwards so the detail was no longer visible. It is still there right now; but too far away to see the shape and detail now but we still see the colors twinkling. It was very beautiful; but, I cannot imagine what it was. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Canada – Beam Of Light & Objects Splitting In Two



NELSON, BRITISH COLUMBIA. On January 11, 2004, a family was heading for home 8 kilometers south of town when they saw a strange craft. Their teenagers in the back got rather excited when they saw it but, the husband said, it must be a helicopter. Due to the man's wife insisting he slow the vehicle down,so they could have a much better look, they all saw a narrow beam of light coming from the sky and lighting up the side of a mountain a half-mile away. Due to the slope of the mountainside they could easily see the beam of light hitting the forest for about half a minute. They could not see where the light originated and then it was gone.



A second witness on January 12, 2004, also called to report a brilliant ball of white light traveling slowly and extremely low over the town of Nelson at 9:40 the following night. The object was traveling in an easterly direction and as it got to around the Cedar Street area it broke up into two pieces, one then flew off to the southeast and the other went almost directly to the north. The piece that went northward moved off at a very fast rate of speed as the other moved a long slowly at about the same rate of speed as the main ball of light.

ST JOHN, Newfoundland -- There was an over flight of the

City on January 17-18, 2004, near midnight of a very large flying triangle

craft. The craft was observed with large lights on each of three corners and a dimmer

light was in the center of the craft. Thanks to Bob Toutman



Mexican Aviation Technicians Claim Having Videotaped UFOs



MEXICO CITY -- Two Mexican aviation technicians claim to have reorded eight UFOs with a camcorder as the objects flew over Mexico City's International Airport on Saturday afternoon. Aviation and photography technicians Alfonso Salazar and Salvador Guerrero told the press that they managed to film the event from the hangar area of the terminal using their camcorder. The events occurred in three separate occasions, involving a difference of three hours and 15 minutes. The first event, recorded at 13:20 local time involved six flying objects that formed an inverted "J" shape. Later they saw a tubular shape and at 22H55 GMT they recorded a spherical UFO. The speed they used to disappear was immediate, and more or less all of them were at an altitude of 12,00 feet," added the techs. Air traffic controllers and other pilots stated that on certain occasions "unidentified flying objects are seen in the sky" and that these cannot be picked up by radar. http://www.mipunto.com/punto_noticias/noticia_entretenimiento.jsp?tipo=CURIOSIDADES&archivo=040201021717.icjrnsl2.txt Translation (C) 2004.

UK/England - UFO Appearing and Then Being Pursued



MANCHESTER – A UFO appeared over the City Center, nearest building CIS Insurance Building at 4:02 PM, on January 14, 2004. The UFO flew down vertically from the sky, hovered then turned north towards Oldham. A second craft that appeared to be a British military aircraft with all kinds of sensors on it pursued the fireball UFO at very low altitude into clouds and couldn't see them anymore. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Netherlands - Craft With Two Bright Lights Moving Very Fast



ROTTERDAM -- On January 12, 2004, Monday evening at 8:10 PM, the witnesses saw two bright lights in the sky from some kind of flying object. He saw them disappear with an enormous-inhumane speed into the low hanging clouds. The event lasted less then five seconds. The lights had the image/shape of two stars. One stood lower than the other. It made no sound. At that time I was walking on the street with two family members. They were looking the other way and didn't see it. The sky was divided with some low hanging clouds and bright parts. Much higher I, also, saw and heard 5 or 6 planes. It looked as if they were searching. I wonder if they might have noticed it to.



Conversations With Mom



I read what you wrote about your Mother in this weeks files and how she saw a UFO in 1965. This reminded me of my own Mother who has passed away. My Mom who was a nurse met my Dad while he was in the military service in San Antonio, Texas. Later my family owned 35 acres of land in the backwoods of Ohio near Zanesville. We would stay there in the summers in a small cabin. One day, as the sun was setting over the pond area, we heard a high pitched humming sound, and my Mother began to scream, " No! No!" I looked over at her, and she sat on the ground and buried her face in her hands, and I became concerned for her. " What's wrong, Mom?" I said. " No! Not again!" she cried. I said, " What do you mean?" I looked at her again, seeing her tremble with her face in her hands, and then I looked over to where my Dad was standing, and he was "frozen" in his tracks, as though completely controlled by some other force. The noise became more intense, and all the surroundings became like a white sheen which was more than enough to convince me that something was about to happen. Just before I blacked out I remember a bright white crescent shaped UFO appeared out of nowhere. I do not have any other memories of this event at this time. I only remembered this much just recently. I have heard it said that UFO abductions run in families.

"Global Implications of the UFO Reality" book



David E. Twichell writes: “How will humankind react when full disclosure of the alien presence in our world is finally released? Why has official secrecy been perpetuated for so many years? Is the UFO phenomenon a modern myth or have they always been with us? What are the credentials of those who insist “we are not alone in the universe.” These and many other provocative questions are addressed. Chilling scientific evidence demonstrates the urgency for full disclosure – NOW! On that historic day, there is no element of the human experience that will remain unaffected.

Review of “Behind the Flying Saucers” 1949.


I’m at the UFO Congress in Laughlin, Nevada having a wonderful time, but finding it very difficult to send out these files. I had dinner last night with many of the speakers who all agree UFOs are here. I sat next to Leah Haley who has told her story of personal abductions by aliens, and told me about her new book “Unlocking Alien Closets.” Haktan Akdogan told us about recent UFO sightings in Turkey and his UFO museum. Professor James McCanney told us about space ships that ride rivers of electro-magnetic energy through space.

Life once existed on Mars, Australian scientists

Australian scientists believe they have found evidence that life once existed on Mars. They have found that microscopic fossils of primitive bacteria-like organisms in a Mars meteorite match characteristics of bacteria found in mud in Queensland. The research is published today in the Journal of Microscopy.
One of the scientists, Dr. Tony Taylor, from the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organization, says he expects his work will spark intense debate.
"The fossils that we have in the meteorite are the original material - the only difference is that you need a very high-powered electron microscope to image them, to see them, and basically whenever we find these fossils here on Earth, no one ever questions they were made by bacteria," he said. "The only difference is that it was in a meteorite from Mars." Dr. Taylor says he has found enough evidence of life on Mars to warrant a manned mission to the red planet, and that more samples must now be collected from Mars for further investigation.
"We've now got enough evidence to warrant a sample retrieval mission and I believe it's going to be a matter of developing the technology to get authentic pieces of Mars back here on Earth, where we can subject them to the really high-tech high resolution instruments that you can't possibly put on Mars," he said. http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/s1033640.htm

New York - A Bright Globe Observed

DEER PARK -- Driving west bound on Long Island Expressway on January 21, 2004, at 5:10 PM, the witness noticed a small reddish globe glowing between the horizon and Venus around 60,000 feet up. It was a clear sky no clouds, the sun was going down and the sky was turning colors. This globe would shine brightly, and streak across (not very far) the sky making a contrail and then stop. The globe that was glowing red to orange would disappear. The contrail that it made would dissipate incredibly fast. Then it appeared again, slightly over from where it disappeared. It made a glow, drew a contrail and disappeared after two minutes. Thanks to Peter Davenport www.ufocenter.com

Pennsylvania - Red, Green and Amber Lights In The Sky

REAMSTOWN – The witness had just awakened at 3:05 AM, on January 24, 2004, and looked out the window and noticed strange lights in a row in the western sky. The witness stated, “ It was clear and dark that morning, but I didn't have my glasses on. I could see the lights all in a row; it looked like a plane in the dark. It sat there for a moment then started to move. I heard no sound. There were red, green and amber lights. As it moved away like a plane would, I saw an airplane fly close by to the lights. This plane continued over my home. I did hear the second plane. I wish I had had my glasses on. Thanks to Peter Davenport www.ufocenter.com

North Carolina - Bright Disc Shaped Object
GREENSBORO – A couple was out on their deck watching how the jet stream was affecting the speed and direction of airplanes in the sky on January 24, 2004, at 3:30 PM. They were watching one plane flying east and one plane flying west and remarking how much the speed was affected. They saw an extremely bright disc shaped object in the sky over the PTI airport at a high altitude. The only thing to compare it to was how Venus has appeared recently in the night sky. The witness states, "My girlfriend thought it must be a star and I remarked that it could possibly be Venus. As we watched, the object appeared to be getting closer. At the time there were at least six airplanes visible in the sky and each one was leaving a vapor trail behind it.
This object was leaving no trail and appeared to be coming straight down vertically and not horizontally like the airplanes. The object suddenly seemed to shift direction and begin to move straight up into the sky. It was getting smaller, but was still incredibly bright. A small cloud passed in front of the object, but the object was still clearly visible through the cloud, when suddenly it just blinked out. When the cloud passed, nothing was there anymore, leaving us at a loss for what it could have been. The cloud was small, and there was no way it could have gone in any direction but straight up, without us seeing where it went. Thanks to Peter Davenport www.ufocenter.com
Georgia – Something Rattled Our Windows
NORCROSS – The witness reports, “My husband and I were sitting in our living room when we heard a helicopter flying very low, on January 24, 2004, at 9:30 PM, so we jumped up to see if there was a search light, maybe it was a police helicopter.” Then we saw what looked a lot like a bright star moving rather quickly across the sky, but it's motions were mechanical, not like a shooting star since there was no tail, and it did not aim down, but the chopper seemed to be following it. We ran out to the front and barely saw the chopper in the distance. Thanks to Peter Davenport www.ufocenter.com

Illinois - Strange Craft Hovers Chicago Midway Airport

CHICAGO -- Three witnesses saw something in the sky on January 24, 2004, at about 7:30 PM in the Midway Airport Area over Narragansett Avenue. - It was on a cold Saturday evening. One of the witnesses saw a strange looking craft, just hovering over to the southwest, near the moon and a bright star. He said, “The strange craft was way bigger than a huge jet plane, and it had three enormous lights blinking in alternate patterns.” It had hovered in the same spot for about five minutes without moving anywhere, but as soon as another person walked up to ask a quick question, the strange looking craft just vanished into thin air. Thanks to Peter Davenport www.ufocenter.com

DOWNERS GROVE -- On Thursday, January 22, 2004, at 5:30 PM, the witness was standing on his deck and observed a glowing white light, moving ENE at approximately 15,000 feet altitude. The size of the light was estimated as the size of a pencil eraser held at arm’s length. The light was similar to those I have seen in the past. The witness lives underneath a major air corridor directly south of O'Hare and directly west of Midway airports in suburban Chicago. Southbound aircraft departing O'Hare were operating in the area at 5000-7500 feet, and westbound aircraft departing Midway were also in the area, flying over the O'Hare traffic.

The object was above both flight paths, and flew high over an MD-80 aircraft departing O'Hare. The object didn’t have any red and green running lights, or white anti-collision strobes, or landing lights normally seen on aircraft in this area. It entered my vision from above and decelerated and stopped moving, about two miles downrange of my position. Then, the object blinked out, and after a second, rapidly reappeared as a star-like object and accelerated upward at an angle resembling a curve ball thrown by a baseball pitcher, only upwards. The witness states, “I have seen this type of object in the Chicago area, several times in the past two years. It decelerates, hovers and accelerates at an angle with amazing speed. It was ABSOLUTELY NOT an aircraft, as I am quite familiar with aircraft, having worked as an airline executive.” Thanks to Peter Davenport www.ufocenter.com

Louisiana – Flying Triangle

DERIDDER -- On January 21, 2004, 7:50 PM, three witnesses spotted something weird, and their dog started barking. The witness noticed a flying triangle with red lights on the points and white lights in the middle in the western sky over Deridder. It was hovering and the air force planes were flying around it. I called my dad and told him to look at it. l just wanted to ask people what is going on? Thanks to Peter Davenport www.ufocenter.com

Texas – Aurora

Last night I believe I witnessed the super secret Aurora aircraft or similar "V" shaped aircraft fly over my house at a very low altitude. The arrangement of the lights, sound of the engine and the contrails were like no other aircraft I have ever observed. Even my 9 year old could hear the difference from other jets. He came flying out of the house thinking it was a UFO. I live just outside San Antonio, Texas and it was a perfectly clear moonlit night. I understand the aircraft could have 3 possible power plants (power plants unknown) and the information I obtained from my observations last night could narrow that down, or point to another type of propulsion if it was the Aurora. It had very strange contrails. I know the information I have would be useful to someone interested in "Aurora project/black aircraft" especially the contrails observed afterwards.

New Mexico – Abductions Continue

ROSWELL – Judie writes, “We retired this summer, and have our twin grandsons, we are raising, here for their senior year.” With in weeks I was working at the museum. I just love it. You would not believe where the people come from and how far they travel to get information on UFO's. EXCEPT the President of the U.S. ignored us. We were prepared with cameras, but if he stopped, it would be acknowledging they do exist, I guess. I still have no idea why I am here, but I guess when they are ready for me to know, I will. I am commenting on the gal who said it runs in families... My grandmother recently contacted a friend who is a physic. She called me at almost 10 at night to talk. One thing she said was that one of my twins is 6th generation of abductee's. That is correct. At 3 or 4 years he was doing alien writings. I asked the aliens to stop till he was at least a teenager. One night we were out of town and he got very agitated, grabbed a piece of paper and wrote about danger on the way home. YES -- A gunman pulled up behind us on the way home, as Josh wanted to do a potty call.
The abductions continue, the latest being 3 days ago.
Thanks to Judie

Nevada – Disc Photographed

LAS VEGAS – The witness writes, “We took photos of New York, New York Hotel at 8:30 AM, on January 21, 2004, and upon developing the photos, a disc shaped object appeared in picture. Thanks to Peter Davenport www.ufocenter.com

Arizona - Refractive mirror like Sphere observed

SAINT JOHNS – The witness was burning some wood debris near his home, 15 miles NE of town at about 9 AM on January 30, 2004. The witness states, “I saw, about 100 yards away, a perfect sphere about 5 or 6 foot across, hovering 75 yards off the ground, and it was moving very slow.” It appeared to be observing from a distance. I walked towards the sphere and it changed direction and as I compensated, it changed direction again. Here is the important point. I don't think; I was supposed to see the sphere because it was almost cloaked with the background. The closest I could come to describing this, was that it refracted the light almost as if you were looking at a mirror ball in water. When it became obvious that I could see it in contrast to the sky by walking directly at it, the craft made several slow evasive moves, and then dropped away and down towards the ground and a bush. Then I could not distinguish it, because there was no contrast to the ground and bush. I was unable to discern it at this point and lost my view of it. This event lasted about five minutes. Thanks to Jeff Rense and Peter Davenport www.ufocenter.com

California – Humming, Bright Green Mass Of Light

SAN DIEGO --My friend saw a green cigar shaped light on a cloudy night, January 24, 2004, at 7:40 PM. She called me and our other friend outside. We all watched it for 5 minutes as it disappeared and reappeared a couple of times, remaining at the same spot. The green light was incredibly bright and of a color very phosphoric. It did not have any source, or a tail. It was just like a mass of green light in the sky. It was quite high, probably as far as Venus. We weren't able to see it again, as it got cloudier. Thanks to Peter Davenport

DESERT HOT SPRINGS -- The roaring repeating humming noise was eerie. In 58 years, I have never heard such a low heartbeat sound EVER. The witness states, “ I was in our home office on January 21, 2004, at 6:50 PM, and the sliding door was open, when I heard a low humming, pulsating like a heartbeat, from outdoors. Hum, hum, and hum like it was alive. It was like an underground motor. I went outdoors and it stopped. We overlook Palm Springs, CA about 1500 feet above the valley floor with desert hills behind us. It was dark. I went to the east side of house and heard a chopper, but did not see that either. Then north of the house, with my husband, we both saw a solid red light faster than an airplane, cross the sky from east to west. I called my neighbor and she said she heard it. The vibration shook her refrigerator shelves down. In 30 years, she has never heard or felt anything like it. I sensed the helicopter was chasing it.

SAN FRANCISCO – A small unidentifiable aircraft, at low elevation, with two to three different colored lights (red/white), was observed on January 26, 2004, 11:03 PM. It was flying at very low speed, without FAA registration id, located from my vantage point in my apartment at 1960 Fulton Street. It flew at a SW-NE direction at an altitude of about 600 feet. I lost visual aircraft contact level with Gillson Hall on USF campus. It had an odd lower trajectory over a crowded metropolitan area - morphed from single engine aircraft to irregular lighting pattern. At a certain point this aircraft was very identifiable to me as a small single engine Cessna-type aircraft. However, it flew in a rather odd trajectory with the only identifiable features being an alternating red and white flashing light. I have spent some time gathering info to report to the FAA.

Chili - Mayor of San José de Maipo states:
40% OF LOCALS HAVE SEEN UFOS IN THE CORDILLERA

In January alone over 10 UFO sightings have been reported. No one knows why they appear, but the fact is that strange lights cross the area regularly, to the extent that residents of Cajón del Maipo consider it a normal occurrence.

SANTIAGO, JANUARY 28 - So frequent are the sightings of phenomena over the skies of Cajon del Maipo that local residents consider it part of their daily routine. Oscar Farias lives in the Las Vertientes sector and both he and his wife Maritza Valero have repeatedly seen UFOs in the Pre-Cordillera.

"We've seen truly surprising spheres and flying saucers. Only two weeks ago, with my cousin and around 8 am, we saw a silver saucer in the El Alto del Canelo sector, moving at average speed and losing itself in the west." Patricia Aros, 37, works for a service corporation and claims having seen strange lights in the higher reaches of Cajón del Maipo on a regular basis: "Its common to see large and small lights moving over this area. I no longer fear them. We aren't alone in this immense universe and if these otherworldly beings wanted to harm us they would've done so already. I think we should be mentally prepared for what is going to happen in the future. Who knows if tomorrow human civilization will definitely establish contact with beings from other worlds?"

So recurrent is the phenomenon that even San José de Maipo's current mayor, Miguel Marquez Olivares, witnessed a "film worthy" close encounter when he was literally assaulted by a UFO.

"On that occasion I was in the Del Ingenio sector driving my pickup truck with my family and group of friends when we suddenly saw an oval shape vehicle issuing multi-hued lights of great intensity as it hovered over the hills. Suddenly, in a matter of seconds, the strange object took off and hovered above us, killing my truck's engine. It lit up a radius of four kilometers with an intense white light, which could be seen as far off as the town of San Gabriel. The experience was truly intense even though it lasted no more than a minute, because from one moment to another the light shut itself off and the phenomenon vanished."

According to the functionary, "40% of the locals have seen UFOs over the Andean Cordilelra, or rather, have had experiences involving strange-looking lights and craft. Even the drovers discuss their furtive encounters with scintillating luminous phenomena that frighten the cattle and horses alike." Thanks to Scott Corrales, Institute of Hispanic Ufology (IHU).

UK/England – Flying Triangle Disappears

LONDON -- On January 24, 2004, at 2 PM, a married couple saw three red lights in a triangle shape flying over. As it got closer, it flew lower and my wife and I both saw it, so we drove to see if there was anything there. When we got there, there was nothing to see. But it was very real! This happened in London England (Hackney). Thanks to Peter Davenport www.ufocenter.com

Germany - A Flash Of Light That Lit The Entire Sky

BABENHAUSEN -- Standing in formation, 84 soldiers all witnessed a flash in the sky on January 22, 2004, at 6:25 AM. The sky was clear and NO lightning was present, although it could have just been an electrical disturbance in the atmosphere, but I'm not really certain. The ENTIRE sky lit up. Usually when lightning bolts strike, you can see a path, but this was NOT a lightning bolt. The flash appeared for two seconds and vanished. All the soldiers in formation just looked at each other and scratched their heads. Although the area is in the flight path of aircraft landing at Frankfurt International Airport, there were NO aircraft in the area at the time of the flash.

India - A UFO With Bright Light

BILASPUR -- It was the day when I attended my friend’s birthday party on January 21, 2004, at 8:15 PM, and I was going to my home with my friend. I left my friend at his house, I looked in the sky and saw between the trees a triangular shape ship with bright brown light. I saw it for only 5 seconds. Thanks to Peter Davenport www.ufocenter.com

Australia – Three Weeks of Bright Color Changing Spheres

CARNARVON GORGE – The witness has seen spheres flying low over the gorge for three weeks and was able to film some activity with their handy cam on January 25, 2004, at 7:30 PM. The object flew slowly west until dispersing over the mountains. There was no engine noise when the object was hovering. The observer continued to drive, and half an hour later saw a similar object moving up on the left side, again stopped to film, and this vehicle /object started to move away. The observer returned home 2-3hrs later and saw a bright light in the sky changing color, and got video footage of it changing colors. The next night he saw more than one spread out across sky. He has been witnessing this for three weeks now with little change. Sometimes they move around, some stay in same spot. He caught one last night giving off all colors from the down side of craft, then the light pulled in and changed to the up side of the craft. He has tried to film stars on the camcorder, but it won't pick them up. When directed at these objects it picks them up. One light is just to the right of Orion.

“Behind The Flying Saucers” Review

Chris Evans who authored “Alien Conspiracy: Unraveling the UFO/Alien Mystery” stated in the MUFON UFO Journal Oct 2003, that the famous Dr. Gee in Frank Scully’s book “Behind The Flying Saucers” was actually the eminent magnetic scientist Dr. Walter Russel (1871-1963) and much in this book is true.

I had always felt this was a basically factual book because Scully had met with the first hand witness to at least two UFO crashes. The book discussed that three flying saucers were found on this continent and a fourth on the Sahara Desert. Scully and Dr. Gee (Russel) were driving to Phoenix early in the summer of 1949, and heard a radio news report of a flying saucer and Scully asked Dr. Russel about them. “Too bad we weren’t associated before,” he said. “I could have worked you into the project of the first one we were called in to examine.” It landed down near Aztec, New Mexico. I got a call and flew down from Denver in three hours. Snip He started, to tell the details of two saucers the research magnetic scientist had personally seen, examined, checked on, and researched. Dr. Gee might show us some of the things that had been taken off one flying saucer—some small disks of a metal unknown to this earth, a tiny radio which operated under principles quite unknown to our engineers, a strange cloth, some gears and other small things which he could carry with him, and which he had taken off one of the ships for research, after he found members of the Air Force picking off pieces just for souvenirs.

Showing no feeling whatever that he was airing confidences which might be violated, he answers all sorts of question concerning the possible origin of the flying saucers and how they might have got to this earth from another planet, and, more important to his mind, how they could have got back to where they came from. The smallest detail, which a woman might bring up, about the interior of the cabin of the flying saucer, matters of water, food, clothing, were quietly explained just a s one might describe the furniture of his own home. His knowledge of magnetic energy was as far ahead of us as, say, the knowledge of atomic-energy scientist mush have been to the average person, snip. It means more because the geophysicist said he had checked over two of the saucers and believed they were driven, not by fuel, jet, turbojet, or even athodyds, but by magnetic power and that due to certain metals not found on the this earth but found on the saucers, he suspected the space ships were from another planet. In fact he ridiculed the idea of anything getting even as far as the moon on jet propulsion or anything like it.

Before he left he promised us he would show us small parts of one of the saucers on his next trip from Phoenix. A radio had him particularly baffled. It had no tubes, no aerials, and no wires. He guessed the cabin must have been its antenna. He was trying to rig up a substitute antenna. He could hear a high singsong note 15 minutes past the hour. However, the dial was so micro metrically keyed it was difficult to stay on the wave. He was thinking of setting up something like a block-and-fall, which permits a clumsy hand to lift a heavy object. Anyway he’d take it along. Wasn’t much bigger than a king-sized cigarette package. He said he regretted the ship was dismantled this way but the Army seems to breed souvenir hunting as it does rank. When he saw what was happening he grabbed a few things himself, not to put in his trophy cabinet but to use for research. (Snip) In time we saw all those things—all except the jacket. We examined the radio, their gears, and the film. Then began the reign of error. Air Force closed Project Saucer and went underground. All were told to forget what they knew; “Hallucinations” became a routine answer. “Psycho “ became the veiled threat. Everybody shut up but the people. “ Behind The Flying Saucers” Pages 38 to 41.

International UFO Congress


I just returned from speaking at the International UFO Congress in Laughlin, Nevada. It was a fantastic conference with 27 top international speakers. There were reports on hundreds of sightings worldwide from the US, Turkey, the UK, Germany, Brazil, Mexico, Israel, and Australia and dozens of impressive videos and films were shown. Besides a great conference, I met dozens of interesting people. I also took a couple days to visit the Grand Canyon, that is one the seven natural wonders of the world. The Flamingo Resort is a great place for a conference and I suggest you plan on going next year. The only problem was that I was unable to get last weeks Filer's Files from Laughlin, NV or Bullhead, Arizona. I had to drive to Flagstaff, AZ to finally get them out. I want to thank Teri and Bob Brown for a wonderful conference.



One of the most interesting speakers was Dr. Norman Bergrun's a former NASA scientist who showed Evidence of ET Intelligence with a possible ET ship in the rings of Saturn.





A strange Light is at #1 with a possible cylindrical ship at the end of Saturn ring. Point #2 allegedly shows electromatic lines. Thanks to Dr. Norman Bergrun and Voyager Copyright photos.



UFO Approaches The Space Station



"The Russian-United States crew aboard the International Space Station (ISS) has reported an unidentified object outside their orbiting craft, said space officials on Tuesday," February 10, 2004. "U.S. astronaut Michael Foale and his Russian colleague Alexander Kaleri last week observed a 20- centimeter (8-inch) long strange object of soft material, which was floating in space, said a NASA representative in Russia, Sergei Puzanov." "For the moment, it's not clear what it is. U.S. and Russian experts are studying photos sent by the (ISS) crew to Earth to try and determine its origin, he said, adding that it posed no danger to the station or its crew." "It could be a piece of the station's insulation or a strap used to attach some technical equipment to the outside of the station, according to Russian experts quoted by the Interfax news agency." "It is possible we will never manage to find out what it was, said a spokesman for Russian mission control in Moscow, Valery Lyndin. According to Lyndin, "there was a similar incident on the now-scrapped Russian space station Mir." "The cosmonauts saw a shining object which they filmed.

Mars - Living Anomalies Discovered?:



Norm Bryden writes, "These are sections of images released from Opportunity of Sol 013 and I think that these formations may be life forms. There are spherical and medallion shaped objects that look like some kind of growth. They are on the surface and are not covered with dust. They also appear to be growing out of the bare rock faces. Some look like the spheres that appear from spore colonies here on earth. There are also many coin or medallion shaped objects all around that are similar in size. These various objects look like a type of living growth. JPL photo sent by Norman Bryden stonesnorm@gis.net





Abductions Investigation in New Jersey



MULLICA HILL – Investigator Evelyn Galson writes, “On February 5, 2004, George Filer and I went to talk to Ann Francis, and investigate more about her experiences. She was open and friendly and seemed very sincere. She revealed to us many things that her family had been experiencing.



Ann Francis- 35 years old

James Francis- 40 years old

Steven Francis - 4 1/2 years old- son

Michele Francis 1 1/2 years old- daughter



Ann Francis has had some college, she was also a member of Mensa for very high IQs. The society welcomes people from different walks of life whose IQ is in the top 2 % of the population. She left college and ended her studies because she wanted to get married, but is now planning to return and take classes in physics.



ANN'S EARLY YEARS



When she was a young child she lived in Pennsville, N.J. on a dead end road surrounded by woods and a swamp. She was told never to go into the woods by her Mom. When she was three years old, she was taken out through the window of her bedroom by two beings. These beings looked like Pebbles and Bamm Bamm from the cartoon called The Flintstones. She was taken high above the trees, down below she saw a round ship on the ground with an opened hatch. Standing in the open hatch she saw a tall Gray with long arms and legs. She had, also, seen another ship just above the ship that was on the ground, but high in the sky. As she watched she saw trucks with canvas tops coming down the road she lived on. The beings that had her changed their appearance, they were now small Grays. They kept her just below tree level moving her in and out as if to hide her, they didn't want her to be seen.She doesn't know what happened in between this time period, it is a little unclear. The next thing she remembers is being dropped from above and falling onto her bed. (As an adult she realized the trucks were military vehicles.)



When she was a young girl she had a game she played with her sister. She had the ability to locate people if she concentrated on them. Her sister would go in her room and Ann could tell her exactly were she was in the room at different times. This really made her sister nervous, because she couldn't understand how she was doing it. Ann didn't know how she did it either, just that she was able to do it.



Ann’s grandparents lived in Glassboro, N.J. and she remembers playing in the backyard with neighborhood children and seeing small triangular shaped flying objects with lights and buttons on them and two handles on the front. She remembers that the children could fly and ride on them. They were young, so they didn't question their ability to fly or where they came from.



NEW YORK - When Ann was older she was still having experiences while living in New York, she was taken up into a ship and was told by gray aliens to remember what she was seeing. Looking out the window of their ship, she could see into the windows of a huge craft that was right next to them and she could see people and Grays. On another day, as she was walking in the city and passed a store window with a photo of Whitley Strieber, the author of “Communion,” she became very upset because she knew him, and remembers seeing him on one of the ships when she was taken. She wrote to him and told him about it.



She said that she has seen humans on ships and they were working with the aliens. She remembers being taken to a desert like place in a valley, with Pueblo Indian type buildings. On the inside there were four sets of four cubic areas, the walls could close, but there was no ceiling on top of these cubic areas. There was a bed and a sink and a place to put things. She was shown a dining hall and bathrooms for men and another for women. The complex appeared to be a training base where people were being taught by the aliens. She remembers sitting at a curved panel, it had lights and small knobs on it. There was an oval object in the panel which she would place her hand on and move it around apparently learning to fly their craft. She knew this place was a Training Camp, and she was being trained as were the others but she didn't know exactly what she was being trained for. She remembers hearing in her mind a comment by a Gray, that "They are training well." The Investigation Continues. Thanks to Evelyn Galson



Maine - An Explosion of Light Under Three Stars



OGUNQUIT – The witness went out on January 27, 2004, at 10 PM, to look at the stars on a clear night and saw what seemed to be an explosion of light under the three stars in Orion's Belt. One particularly bright star with a pulsing circle moved in a strange way. The witness states, “I turned away to clear my eyes to make sure it wasn’t an illusion and when I looked back the star was defiantly moving in a zigzag way.” I watched for a moment and went in the houses to get my daughter so she could tell me I wasn't seeing things, but the star was gone. Tonight about 1:30 am my husband came in from smoking a cigarette and said he saw something, too. Towards the west was a zig zag moving star. I can't honestly say I saw a UFO, but I am making sure my doors and windows are locked and I am afraid to go out and look up. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



New Hampshire -Bright Light Explodes Into a Green Light




COLEBROOK – A bright white light was observed on the western horizon just south of Mount Monadnock, on February 1, 2004, that at first was thought to be Venus about 7 PM. An hour later, the observer noticed the light appeared to be moving slowly towards his location as he drove south bound on US Route 3. He thought maybe it was a border patrol helicopter because of its movements and location. By 7:30 PM, it was very obvious the object was moving towards my location. The witness states, “I continued to look occasionally at the bright light when suddenly it exploded into a green light that illuminated the Connecticut River Valley on both the NH and VT sides. It had small tendrils coming down to ground as it exploded. My passenger with me was very scared and insisted that we go home. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

Massachusetts – Fighters Chase Cigar



WOBURN -- At 11:30 PM, on January 29, 2004, 8: PM, several fighter jets were heard in the area, apparently they were chasing an object that was originally seen in Westport, Ct area about 60 minutes earlier. The object was silent and had long probe like extension and several bright lights all in a white/blue color. Fighter jets were heard in the area for about an hour then all became silent. No stories appeared in the morning papers and no accounts where broadcasted on any of the news stations. Weather conditions were clear and cold with great visibility from soft crescent shaped moonlight. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Connecticut – Five Scattered Ball Lights

MIDDLEBURY – On February 1, 2004, two friends were driving in two cars following each other at 9 PM, when the girlfriend called on the cell phone to her boyfriend’s car ahead. He said, “Look at all those strange lights on left that look like cell phone towers?” If you use the lights as a guide to the top of the tower they were all uneven and very bright. They were not blinking and they were hovering way lower than planes. I insisted they were towers, but he told me they weren't. Fifteen minutes later, he went back by the spot and the lights were gone. I decided to return a couple days later and I can confirm there were no towers in the area so there was nothing there that can produce those lights. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



New York - Flying Triangle and Scary Situation



NEW YORK CITY – A medical student reports seeing a large triangle shaped UFO on January 25, 2004, at 4 AM, that hung over the Hudson River for about two minutes. It seemed to be searching for something, because there was a light-blue beam coming from the middle of it. When I went to pull out my camera, it slowly lowered itself into the water. Many people saw this object besides me. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



BROOKLYN – The observer was walking and looking west and saw a green light in the sky moving very fast and then disappearing on January 28, 2004,at 8:55 PM. The observer states, “The object flew west over my head with a light on it, but it was hard to tell in the dark.” This is a brownstone neighborhood; the light looked much lower than planes or helicopters, which sometimes-fly overhead. I thought I was nuts until I heard a teenager nearby telling his friend about seeing it, too. We compared notes and he saw pretty much exactly what I saw.. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



New Jersey – Suspicious Moving Lights and Disk Spotted


PENNSAUKEN – Witnesses saw six lights on January 29, 2004, at 9:30 PM, two separate UFOs very close to each other holding steady in the air with no movement as if they were watching something. Suddenly one of them turned off its lights for three seconds and then turned then back on three seconds later. Both started moving very slow getting lost. The witness writes, “I told my friend Junior to stop his truck and we jumped to the ground and saw these craft and sat down and discussed what we really saw and concluded that those things couldn’t be planes or helicopters because of their very close proximity to the ground. Also there was no sound at all. I knew from the beginning when I saw the lights that they were not normal. Thanks to Peter Davenport



CLIFTON – A disk tears through the skies silently and at lightning speed and is observed by two witnesses on February 2, 2004 at 12:30 PM. The witness reports, “I was in the car with my cousin (non-believer) and he pointed out the object to me. He said jokingly, "Is that a UFO?" and laughed at me (believer) I rolled down all of the windows in the car to listen and there was no sound. Any aircraft that was so close to our car would have made some noise. It flew past us and it was out of our vision in under ten seconds, but I got a good look at it for five seconds. Due to the winter's sun glare I couldn’t see anything very good other than a very bright shiny disk. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Pennsylvania - Disk Seen for Ninety Minutes


READING – The observer spotted a disk with blue and red lights, stationary in the southeast for 90 minutes. It disappeared when aircraft approached on January 29, 2004, at 6 PM. The disk was very bright with blue and red lights, that sat stationary in the southeastern sky for around 90 minutes. Disappeared when aircraft finally approached.

Virginia – Bright Object in the Sky


RICHMOND – The witness was walking his dogs, when a bright object was seen in the northeast sky on January 28, 2004, at 6:35 PM. He states, “I’m guessing it was at about 10,000 feet in the clear night sky and pulsed a metallic and steel blue light, as I write this at 7:30 it is still in the sky and has not moved an inch...I called the local CBS affiliate here in Richmond and simply told them what I saw in the sky, I, also, had my wife and stepson take turns outside looking at it through my binoculars and they had no idea what it was either. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



South Carolina -Three Big Orange Lights Sat In The Sky



MYRTLE BEACH – The observer was driving down Highway 31 towards 501 on January 29, 2004, 1:46 PM, when he spotted the first two big orange lights, and then another. One was higher up than the other, about as high up as the smaller planes fly in the area, but they couldn’t have been planes because they disappeared. These big orange lights sat in the sky motionless for a moment before vanishing. I have never seen anything like this. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Georgia - Filmed Disk Unidentified Flying Objects

COHUTTA – The photographer bought a new Cannon ES8600, 8mm camcorder and within 24 hours recorded about 30 minutes of "unidentified flying objects", on February 2, 2004, between around 12 noon. Shooting at the sky and blocking the sun out with the eve of my house and only seeing the rays of the sun, I filmed about 30 minutes of "unidentified flying objects". I started off by having the roof of my house in the lower portion of the filming, for reference points and for focus. While getting my house in the lower portion of the video, and looking up from the view finder, I noticed a light shadow coming up from behind my house. I luckily caught a dark disk shaped UFO going straight overhead. It was about the size of a pea at arm's length. There are at least three or four disks in the film that seem to blend in with the rays of the sun, but if you shoot away from the sun, you can catch them on film. You see the saucer shapes as they move at the correct angle and the sun reflects off them, they look like a white spot going across the sky. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Florida – Pilot Sighting Report



My first sighting happened in 1961, on a trip from Tampa, Fla. to Atlanta, Ga. It was a night flight and we had leveled off at our assigned altitude and were approximately 40 miles north of Tampa. We suddenly observed a flight of four star-like objects heading south, high above us and to the east, going very fast. They were in tandem and were surrounded by a bluish-white haze or glow. We called on Miami Center frequency and asked if anyone else was seeing these objects. Immediately, an Areo Commander aircraft crew said, "Yes, we are over Vero Beach and we have them in sight." Miami Center switched us over to Jacksonville Center at this time.



After our initial call into Jacksonville Center, we asked if the controller had been getting any reports of UFOs. He replied that he had numerous reports and that the Air Force had scrambled jet fighters to attempt to catch them, but had failed to get close to them. He also mentioned that there had been many sightings all along the east coast of the U.S. from as far north as Richmond,Va. My estimate of their speed was something over 2000 mph and their altitude above 35,000 ft. We observed them about 30-45 seconds. After completing the trip and driving home, I turned on the radio to hear the latest news. The announcer said that according to a U.S. Air Force report, the mysterious objects seen in the eastern and southern states tonight, were meteors. I say, "Meteors, they were NOT". I knew I had seen my first UFOs and what a thrill it was. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director HBCC UFO Research

Tennessee - Daytime Dark Oval Object Photographed


BRISTOL – The witness was driving home from getting a preliminary site photo for another investigation on January 30, 2004, 3 PM, when I spotted a dark oval object near my home in the sky. I snapped one photo and hurried home to get the object on video, but it was no longer visible. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Ohio - Silver Metallic Wingless UFO


LYNDHURST – The witness was driving north on Brainard Road east of Cleveland and noticed a long silver object to left center in the sunlight at 8:22 AM on February 11, 2004. It was about 50 degrees above the horizon. The object had no wings or tail assembly. It was 1/2 inch in length at arm’s length with high reflectivity. There was one dark spot midway on the body. The object kept a constant side on view, rapidly receded away to the north in less than five seconds and disappeared. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Editor’s Notes: The object looks similar to a UFO videotaped by George Ritter 125 miles away in Findlay, Ohio several years ago.





Iowa - Fast Moving Bright Lights In The Sky

VINTON – The witness reports, “I was driving down a gravel road near our home on January 27, 2004, 11:20 PM, and out of nowhere I saw two bright white lights in the sky ahead of me.” One was to my right and one to my left. The lights were similar to a large aircraft you would see flying very low, but the speed and agility could only be described as similar to a helicopter. They both moved at the exact speed coming towards each other meeting directly in front of me, but still at a distance from me and then immediately with the exact speed started descending down. At that point I stopped my truck and said to myself, what are they going to do? Land on the highway? I was a little nervous to see what "they" were, but again they started moving forward and I soon realized that they had vanished. They were gone just as fast as they appeared. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter





Missouri - We Saw A Slow Moving Orange Sphere


WILLARD -- The witnesses were a 23-year-old pastor, his 23-year-old wife, and a 22-year-old friend who were driving home on state highway AB on January 31, 2004, at 9:30 PM, when they saw an orange glowing sphere moving through the sky very slowly. They pulled over at a closed gas station to watch it and see if it had any navigational beacons. The witness states, “My uncle is a pilot, and has taught me about aircraft recognition and there were no navigational beacons or flashing lights.” It was a constantly glowing orange sphere moving backwards and forwards across the sky very slowly. “It passed overhead and then disappeared completely,” he stated. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Nebraska – Changing Multicolored Lights




KENT COUNTY -- A bright object, with multicolored lights was seen in the southern sky, just above the trees, then it rose up and traveled north on January 30, 2004, at 8 PM. It began to rise after a while, then it proceeded to travel in a northern direction. No apparent shape could be determined. There were very bright colored lights for twenty minutes. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Arizona – Five Disk Shaped Ships

TUCSON – The witness reports, “On February 14, 2004, I lay there enjoying my spa’s pulsating water on my back at 7:45 PM, and saw something that I have never seen before.” As I looked up into the southern sky and noticed about eight randomly spaced, light flashes that would flash on and off? They looked like miniature fireworks as they had bright centers and little flashes or beams that emanated from the center. The Tucson Gem and Mineral Show did have fireworks that weekend to celebrate 50 years}, but unlike fireworks that usually have embers drifting down, these light flashes had no embers etc. At first I figured them to be planes, then helicopters as Davis Montham Air Force base is in that direction. There was no sound that I could hear. They flashed on, then off for about 20 seconds, then one by one blinked off and did not reappear for the time I was in my spa. Interesting I thought to myself.” Email report.



California – A Bright Round Yellow Object and Low Flying Craft

SAN FRANCISCO – A small unidentifiable aircraft was observed on January 26, 2004, at 11:03 PM, flying at a very low speed without making any sound without FAA registration identification. From my vantage point in my apartment at 1960 Fulton St., it flew northeast at an altitude of 600 feet (in reference to Transamerica Building comparison). I lost visual aircraft contact at the level with Gillson Hall on the USF campus. This is an unusually low trajectory over a crowded metropolitan area. It morphed from single engine aircraft to irregular lighting pattern with two to three different colored lights (red/white). The witness reports, “At first this aircraft was identifiable to me as a small single engine Cessna-type aircraft, however, it flew in a rather low trajectory with an alternating red and white flashing light.


ANTIOCH – The witness reports seeing a bright glowing round yellow/orange pulsing object that moved slowly and silently almost overhead on January 30, 2004, at 4:20 AM. It was moving northeast pulsing and dipping a little over the river and started to descend towards the Delta Islands for ten minutes. I drove down to the river attempting to locate it again but couldn’t do so. The object had a bright pulsing intensity from all angles. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Oregon - Brightly Lit Cylindrical Object Rises Slowly

TILLAMOOK -- The witness spotted a bright cylinder shaped light approximately 500 feet above the south end of Tillamook Bay at 7:30 PM, on February 2, 2004. He observed the bright light through binoculars and saw a fully illuminated cylinder that was rising slowly in a northwesterly direction. The cylinder entered a broken cloud cover and illuminated the clouds as it continued to rise and then disappeared after five minutes. Several minutes after the cylinder disappeared, jet fighter aircraft were heard above the Bay City area. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Canada - Bright Light Video



HOUSTON, BC—On February 4, 2004, Brian Vike investigated a sighting that took place west of town high above the Bulkley Valley. At 7:06 AM, the wife gave a call for her husband to come and have a look at a moon sized object. It's circular color was very bright, and the top of the object was domed shaped. It was still dark outside and the object was seen moving in between a row of trees. It just dropped down slowly and "stopped"! She grabbed her video camera and started to shoot some film of the bright, shining object. She went outside to shoot but the object disappeared. Returning inside the object was again visible. Brian states, “Why the witness could not see it when she went outdoors is a mystery to me, there was nothing to block out this large orange glowing object. I could see clearly through the first set of trees to the second row. So why the light disappeared has me baffled. I was, also, given a copy of the tape to have it looked at. Brian Vike, Director HBCC UFO Research


Alaska - Explosive Light Over Skies




KETCHIKAN -- Many people have seen unexplained flashing red and blue, bright lights numerous times that move like a UFO, but tonight on January 30, 2004, 8: PM, topped them all. The witness states, “While standing on the patio, I saw an extremely bright object flying in a downward motion with lights that looked like explosions that were so bright, they shone through the clouds.” I've seen falling stars and meteors; and this was definitely a UFO. I remember I saw a documentary once that showed pictures from the atmosphere of spaceships flying around Earth and then what looked like gunfire from Earth towards them, like we were shooting at them. This is exactly what it looked like for about four seconds and they were gone. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Ireland - Flying Triangle With Three Red Lights

PORTLAOISE – The student was out walking his dog, Roxy on January 27, 2004, at 10 PM, when he noticed strange lights in the sky that hovered over them for at least a minute. He states, “There were three bright red lights that were definitely not an airplane and I have never seen any other aircraft that looked like this.” There was no sound and then it shot off at an incredible speed. Thanks to Peter Davenport

UK - UFOs Sighted



BRISTOL -- On Sunday, February 8, 2004, just after midnight, Tim Lock was outdoors in the woods at Wraxall and Failand when "approaching from the northwest came a white light with a red tinge piloting above the trees, moving sharply about but hovering over the same area, as if it had lost something. It moved up, down, forward, backward, up, down, forward and so on. Tim says, “We, also, saw three smaller shooting-star objects shoot about under it from the left at about 15 minute intervals." Tim and his companions kept the strange object in view until 2 AM, until he fell asleep . "I filmed it on my camcorder, and my mother and girl friend, also, observed it. It was real white with a halo around it that was fuzzy.



LEEDS --On Tuesday, February 10, 2004, Raymond Mulhall, 17, spotted a UFO over Meanwood in the UK. "This sighting was witnessed by 8 people, two of whom were policemen. The object was about 50 feet (15 meters) across and 20 feet (6 meters) high. It moved across the sky without a single noise. It appeared to land in an area nicknamed the Witches Quarry." "An hour later," Ray reported, "I arrived at the Witches Quarry and found damaged trees and three triangular depressions in the ground. These were 25 feet (7.7 meters) apart and depressed into the ground to a depth of 8 inches (20 centimeters). There was a strange heat emanating from the ground that I found rather creepy, so I left and returned home."

South Africa - I Saw a UFO and an Orange Ball

TRICHARDT -- I looked outside my window and saw the UFO on January 27, 2004, at 10:30 PM, coming closer as if to land. It had bright colorful lights and it got brighter as it came closer. I ran outside and it was gone. Thanks to Peter Davenport



CAPE TOWN – On February 2, 2004, an orange "ball" was seen hovering and moving short distances at high speed by three witnesses. It appeared to be dancing, flickering, and had one red navigation light, which appeared intermittently. The witness reports, “The moon was almost full and the object was clearly visible, but it was hard to know at what distance it was relative to my position.” My friend thought it could be a helicopter, but there was no sound and it was too high up. I just felt it was unnatural when I observed it. I can only say that it was not an aircraft, satellite, or anything that I have seen before. Perhaps there is a scientific explanation, but for me this is an "UFO". Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Australia - Three Big White Disks Shoot Into Sky

MELBOURNE – The witness was walking home from the shopping center on February 2, 2004, at about 6:30PM, when he saw three white disks floating about three feet above an empty field. Each disk was about 30 meters in diameter and floating next to each other. At first, the witness thought they were some sort of water tank device. He states, “I approached and after I took the first couple of steps all three of them shot up into the air about 500 meters as fast as a sling shot and then in a neck snapping move, they jolted off at a 90 degree angle and were out of sight within a few seconds.” I study physics at UNI and I know that they must have broken the sound barrier or gotten close within four seconds from take off. The way they sped up from take off at about 200 mph and continued to speed up as they made a 90 degree turn from vertical to horizontal at an even higher speed, then sped up so fast that they were out of sight within a few seconds on a clear blue sky day was amazing. I have not slept since then. It was completely silent. I have never told anybody except my girlfriend and never will. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

Alien Life Found?



The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These files make the assumption that intelligent life exists other than humans as described in the early sacred writings of mankind.

Earth Could Be Scattering Life Throughout Our Galaxy

Microbes could ride on specks of dust, powered by the Sun's rays, says William Napier, an astronomer at the Armagh Observatory in Northern Ireland. Scientists have pondered whether life might ride between star systems ever since the nineteenth century. Some think that a collision between a life-bearing planet and another celestial body could scatter stones and boulders into space carrying living organisms. These deep-frozen spores could then make their way to other worlds -- an idea called 'panspermia.' However, the chances are stacked against such an event. Spores would have to survive the meteor impact and be thrown into space. The boulder would then have to leave the solar system and land on another life-supporting planet. It would have to get there quickly, too. The radiation streaming through space will cook any organisms in space rocks. Typically, says Napier, "The boulders will be sterile by the time they are ejected from the solar system."

But microbes might survive if they can escape the Sun's gravity more quickly. And that might happen, says Napier, if the rocks they sit on are first ground to dust. And the pressure of sunlight can quickly blow grains this small out of the solar system. The same force might one day propel spacecraft through the cosmos. Such a grain could travel about six light years from Earth in 70,000 years -- far enough to reach other stars. We could be surrounded by a huge 'biodisk' of frozen organisms floating on grains of rock, says Napier, all of which can wander in and out of our solar system quite easily. "The solar system is as leaky as a sieve," he says.

Earth should spread its seed widest when we pass through a giant molecular cloud, a mass of dusty material from which stars are born. This has happened about five times since life appeared on Earth. Each time, Napier estimates about three billion trillion microbes passed from Earth into the cloud. The chances of some of these finding their way to an Earth-like planet are quite high, he says. A similar process could even explain how the Earth wound up hosting life in the first place, he adds. Thanks to Nature Magazine http://www.nature.com/nsu/040216/040216-20.html

Editor's Note: If we assume Napier is correct, life that is estimated to exist on Earth for 3.8 billion years could have sent life to Mars. The green vegetation that springs up almost over night on vast stretches of Mars each spring look like green snow-ice algae that sometimes grows on snow and in harsh conditions here on Earth. Areas the size of France are observed to grow in days, while no dust storms can account for their sudden appearance.




Editor’s Note: I suggest JPL examine the European Space Agency photos of green vegetation in Spirit's landing zone marked by the + sign. A little water, a few spores and suddenly millions of acres on Mars turn green suggesting growing vegetation such as algae. Geologists claim there is no geological explanation for the green growth.


Mars Rovers May Have Found Salty Water


Robert Roy Britt writes, “NASA's Opportunity rover sent back new images from Mars showing that small spheres previously found on the surface also exist below, in a trench the rover dug.” Hints of salty water were also found in the trench, but much more analysis is needed to learn the true composition. Meanwhile Opportunity's twin rover, Spirit, is about to dig a trench of its own in order to investigate soil that sticks to its wheels, suggesting the fine-grained material might be moist. JPL officials said the soil at both locations could contain small amounts of water mixed with salt in a brine that can exist in liquid form at very low temperatures. The scientists stressed that only minuscule amounts of water would be needed to create the brine. Water is the main thing scientists are searching for at Mars, because all life as we know it requires liquid water. Spirits Gusev landing site (marked +) was photographed by the European Space Agency satellite showing large amounts of green coloring that is normally associated with living organisms and not land forms or minerals.



Mars - Can Rocks Grow or Move?



Mark Fink has sent me Mars Rover images. He says, “There have been many strange very life like things showing up in Mars pics (especially the microscopic images)... but this is the first time that there are two of the same thing close to one another. The navigation and a hazard cam shot of the same location.. they just come out Tuesday Feb 25th. Mars rover Spirit has imaged two "critters" sticking out of the sand near the same location... there seems to be some signs of movement. (Shell like object at bottom of photos may move.)

Please look over these two images.. (see below image to see a better view of the "critter" in the foreground.

Thanks to mark_fink@GBRonline.com



Editor’s Note: I looked at the images and found a different anomaly at the edge of the left tire track.

In the first image the crab like rock has no claws, in the second one he does. Can anyone explain how the rock appeared to grow?




Can camera angle explain the apparent growth at the left above tire track?

The two Mars rover JPL/NASA images shown above have been enlarged to show
similar size objects.

Opportunity's spheres - At Meridiani Planum near the equator of Mars, Opportunity has examined its self-dug trench. More data is yet to be returned that should help scientists understand mysterious BB-sized spheres they've found strewn on the surface everywhere in the vicinity and embedded in a rock wall. Now those spheres have been found in the trench. Unlike those on the surface, the spheres in the wall of the trench are "polished and shiny," said geochemist Albert Yen of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. No one knows why. Yen said it's not surprising that the buried spheres are different from those at the surface, since they experience different conditions. Some coating could be responsible for the higher reflectivity of the long-buried spheres below. He said it was not due to just an effect of lighting. In the broader sense, the spheres could have been formed in a volcano or a meteor impact, or they might be the result of running water. Those are the three hypothesis researchers have been working with for several days now. Each is still a possibility.


Jupiter – Is Sending Radio Signals



NASA says the shortwave radio signals from Jupiter aren't a sign of extraterrestrial intelligence. The emissions are generated naturally by plasma instabilities in Jupiter's magnetosphere, a pulsing power beam. Most space physicists say that ionized gas in the upper atmosphere above Jupiter's magnetic poles sometimes behaves like a powerful radio laser or maser. The radiation can be so intense that Jupiter frequently outshines the Sun as a source of radio energy at ham radio wavelengths. The radio laser gets its power from Jupiter's volcanic moon Io. Tidal forces from Jupiter and its other large satellites superheat the interior of the moon Io and make it the most volcanic body in the Solar System. Volcanic materials are thrown far above Io's surface. Much of that enters orbit around Jupiter, forming a huge gaseous donut around the giant planet.



Editor’s Note: Perhaps we are picking up the radio signals of intelligent extraterrestrial life that has a pulsing power beam. The next time you listen to the radio remember it may be a pulsing power beam. See and hear signals from Jupiter on my website: www.georgefiler.com/



E.T. Craft Are Made With Strange Technology



Robert Collins reports that his Los Alamos National Laboratories contact writes on January 4, 2004.....Before answering your questions, you are assuming that ET crafts are made with our technology based on your questions. Many years ago, we made that same mistake and it took us several years to correct the mistake and start fresh from the drawing board. "Their" technology is nothing similar to ours. We do not utilize our physics or chemistry in a comparison analysis. We started from scratch and learned their principles of dynamics, physics, etc. The document I gave "_____" was a briefing to people with some basic knowledge of the craft. I used our grammar and basic English comparison phrases to explain a very complex ET system. See full story at:, http://www.ufoconspiracy.com/reports/lanl_message.htmr



Editor’s Note: If scientists have trouble figuring out the craft with one to examine, it is almost impossible for scientists or ufologists to determine the exact nature of the craft. Apparently even the alien physics is quite different. It is my theory that another non-human intelligence is operating on the Earth that has advanced technology and the ability to hide its presence. One aspect of their technology is craft that operate at exceptionally high speed, too fast for the human eye to see unless they choose to slow down. They can also penetrate earth or water at high speeds. Science may be of little help in obtaining proof or their existence because the aliens operate with a science far different from our own, that is not understood or recognized by most of our scientists. The majority of scientists work in very narrow fields often with grants, and very few can afford the ridicule of attempting to investigate UFOs.



In recent years, George Ritter has been videotaping a series of blurred UFOs behind a farm in Fostoria, Ohio. Noted artist and webmaster James Neff has written that blurs on videotape are not UFOs but most likely insects. I drove from New Jersey to Ohio to meet with George Ritter to investigate his images and found him to honest and forthright. I believe he is honest and forthright in his attempts to obtain video of Unidentified Flying Objects and regularly captures remarkable images. George Ritter places his camera on a tripod in his backyard and shoots video for several hours without touching the camcorder except to set up and remove the tape. I was present while he videotaped some remarkable images of UFOs. I did not see the UFOs captured on the video, since they appear to move at very high speeds of over a thousand miles per hour. This was determined by measuring their progression from frame to frame and the distance covered above the farm.

The camcorder generally used by George Ritter is his RCA VHS video camera Model cc 4251. While video taping UFOs the camera also video tapes birds, bees and other insects as the camera automatically changes focus on the object in the center of the video screen almost instantly. On wide angle position the camera focuses from an inch from the lens to infinity. The camera is capable of taking images at very close range as is apparent by the image of the bird that is only a few feet away from the lens, while a bee flies only a few inches from lens. The following image does not appear to be an insect and we believe the Unidentified Flying Objects that appear over the farm at a distance of approximately 265 yards or more are genuine UFOs. George Ritter has always been open to have qualified experts attempt to repeat his results with high speed film. Efforts have been made to obtain help from Ohio State and Bowling Green University to evaluate the images on site.

New Jersey - Abduction Investigation



MULLICA HILL – Evelyn Gaulson and George Filer investigated the abduction of Ann Francis. Investigator Gaulson writes, “When she was pregnant with her son in 1999, she woke up one morning and saw a mark just above her navel. She went to her doctor and showed him the mark. He told her that it looked like she had an amniocentesis test. (This test is done by insertion of a hollow needle through the abdominal wall and into the uterus to obtain amniotic fluid especially for the determination o fetal sex or chromosomal abnormality. ) The mark didn't go away for weeks. While she was pregnant with Steven, she got a craving for meat, she would just brown it on both sides and then eat it, it was mostly raw meat. Before she was pregnant she was a vegan. (A vegan is a strict vegetarian who consumes no animal food or dairy products.) During the delivery of her son there was a problem so they delivered her child by cesarean section. They had placed a blue blanket in front of her so she couldn't see the surgery. When her son was delivered the nurse lifted her baby high up and said, "Look at your baby". Ann couldn't see her baby because it wasn't high enough the blanket was in the way. All of a sudden the baby grabbed the blanket and pulled it down and looked at her. They were amazed that he did that.



One day Steven said, "Mommy I picked you." Ann said, " What do you mean, you picked me?" "When I was in Heaven I picked you for my mommy," was his answer. And on another occasion Steven said, " Mommy remember the blue blanket, I couldn't see you so I pulled it down." Ann asked him what he was talking about, "What blue blanket?" Steven said. "When I was born, I pulled down the blue blanket so I could see you." She was so surprised with the things he said. She hadn't told him about what happened when he was born. How could he know about it? When Ann was pregnant with Michele, she told Steven that he was going to have a baby brother or sister, he said, "No mommy I'm going to have a sister, not a brother?" She said, "But you might have a brother." Again he said, "No, I'm going to have a sister, I just know it." The investigation continues. Thanks to Evelyn Gaulson



New Jersey - Glowing Blue/White Object



KEARNEY/ELIZABETH -- I've noticed a number of reports about a glowing blue/white object in the vicinity of Kearney, Elizabeth, and the New Jersey Turnpike on February 4, 2004. You should be aware there's an advertising blimp-shaped balloon that appears to be tethered to a tower in the area. Its hard to pin point its exact location but it is visible for many miles because it is floating about the height of a 15-story building with no large structures to obstruct the view.

I first spotted it while traveling south on the NJ Turnpike in the area of Exit 18 and could still see it when we left at Exit 13. I had my eye on it the whole time because it really had me going. It hovers, sways and turns with the breeze giving the appearance of something changing shape. It gives off a very bright, eerie, blue/white glow.



Georgia – A Moving Light


BLACKSHEAR – On February 18, 2004, at 8:30 until 9 PM, I really didn't think much of my nephew saying he wanted to use the telescope until I went out and off to the northwest was a very bright circular object. It slowly moved to the north and all of a sudden, it took off like a rocket for about a half a second. It slowed and started moving south. It slowly moved south for a few seconds then it turned moving back towards the north again. At times it would appear to be hanging in the night sky swinging like a pendulum. It would go in all directions, like someone scribbling on a piece of paper. It also had faint blinking colors such as you would see with the stars. Occasionally, you could see what looked liked a tail from a comet. At 9:45 PM, I walked back outside and the object was nowhere in sight. Another thing I should point out is that my nephew said he has seen it for the last couple of days. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director HBCC UFO Research http://www.hbccufo.com



South Carolina – UFO Looks Like the Sun



Kris Waddell writes, “ I would like to share my UFO sighting on the night of July 20, 1998, when I was standing on my front porch with my grandmother and noticed a really big and bright object moving slowly through the sky.” It almost looked like the sun. I was really excited and asked my grandmother to go get my telescope. "I said hurry Nanny hurry" she couldn’t find it so I turned my head and looked in the living room and turned back around in a matter of a second. Looking back into the sky. It wasn’t there. I was filled with awe and was shocked, because I couldn’t believe that this happened. I am still wondering if it was a UFO or an airplane. But I know that airplanes don’t fly away in a second. And I do know that airplanes aren’t bright as the sun. I am only 17 years old and my parents taught me to tell the truth, and this is no lie!!! Please let me know what you think it was, or why it moved so fast.



Editor’s Note: Hundreds of similar reports are sent to Peter Davenport’s National UFO Reporting Center and MUFON. Most of these remain unsolved and are called unidentified flying objects.



UFOs and Aliens in Southwest Florida



Steven Skelley a minister who writes for the Marcos Island Sun Times writes,


"I was surfing the Web one night when I came across a Web site that offered eyewitness accounts of alien sightings right here in Southwest Florida." The site, UFOinfo.com, also lists alien sightings from across the USA. One such listing is from a Collier County resident who was traveling I75. According to his account, "I noticed an object in the sky. It had three tiny white lights and came closer at a very slow pace. I was able to make out the shape very distinctly as a low flying triangle. It was well below the clouds, and its lights were at each apex. The lights did not illuminate any portion of the craft. I pulled over to the side of the road and shut off the engine to listen. It was traveling west and passed by in three minutes. The window was down, and the engine off, but there was no sound. I turned the ignition to aux to have the radio on. I looked back and the object was gone. I got out of my van, and looked around, but there was nothing, not even contrails. I noticed the van's digital clock lost two minutes."

A Web site named UFOs.about.com lists this Southwest Florida alien encounter. "James W. Flynn was camping in the Everglades when, shortly after midnight, he saw an object that he thought was an airplane in trouble descend about a mile away. He drove his swamp buggy towards the light, which was visible through the trees. About a quarter of a mile from the light, the vegetation became so dense that he could not proceed except on foot. As he got close to the object, he saw it was a large cone-shaped structure hovering close to the ground; it was about 75 feet wide and 25 feet high, and had rows of windows with light shining through them. As he neared the object, a beam of light struck him in the forehead, knocking him unconscious and leaving him temporarily blinded. The UFO then vanished, leaving behind burned trees and vegetation. A medical examination showed impairment of muscle and tendon reflexes which a doctor did not believe could be faked."

Science fiction movies have been using the UFO and alien theme for decades. Do you believe there are aliens among us? I do. Did you know the Bible talks about beings that are "not of this place, not of this world?" And not just anyone in the Bible, but Jesus himself talks about what many people would call "aliens, beings not of this world." If you look up the word "alien" in a dictionary, you'll find definitions like; "someone different, a nonnative, someone from another place." Remember that: someone different and from another place. An alien.

Let's look at what Jesus says in the book of John chapter 17 verses 1, 14-17. Jesus looked toward heaven and prayed: "Father ... I have given them your word and the world rejects them, for they are not of this world any more than I am of this world. My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. They are not of this world, even as I am not of it. Set them apart by the truth. Your word is truth."

We could translate the prayer in passage like this, "God, I have given people your word and now other people reject them, other people think they're different. It's true. They are now as alien to this world as I am. Protect them. Continue to set them apart by the truth of your word." Being a Christian is about allowing God to make us different from what we were and allowing him to make us something alien to the normal way the world works and people are. The Bible says the way to destruction is wide and most people choose to go that way, but the way to righteousness is narrow and few people choose it. The few, the different, the alien.

God's plan is not for us to be the same as most people. Most people are on the wrong path, the wide way. God's plan is not for us to have the same mindset as our peer group. They're probably not living their lives according to God's truth. God's plan is not for us to be tolerant or accepting of things that are wrong, even when most people do.

God's plan is for us to be made into something different. A new person on the inside. Someone in a right relationship with the creator of the universe and everything in it. God's plan is for us to be so filled with his life that we look and think and work in a way that's alien to the rest of the world. God's plan is for us to be so filled with his light and love in this darkened world that we're like Jesus; we just don't fit in anymore.

That is what Jesus was saying: God, they're so filled with your word and your plan and your light and your truth that, just like me, they're alien. They're sanctified. They're set apart. They're not of this world. There are aliens among us, beings who are not of this world. People who have been set apart, made different on the inside by God himself. This week, let's ask God to mold us into what we were really meant to be, not just what everyone else is. Let's choose to become aliens to this world.

Florida – Alien Encounter



ORLANDO -- It was about 8:45 PM, and I was cat-fishing at Lake Downy Park just east of downtown Orlando on February 6, 2004. I had a feeling something was watching me for about five minutes, I kept looking around me and saw nothing. It was very dark but the moon made things OK to see. I heard foot steps in the woods/marsh on the side of lake near the dock I was fishing from, when I saw and heard a ripple in water near the shore. Then I saw two stork like legs and a head watching me. It looked right at me and I was very scared and yelled, "Hey!" It stood up like a man my size or so, and stared me dead in eyes. I went to run off the dock, but when I did so, it walked at a slow pace toward the end of dock to trap me. I phoned 911 and they told me to stay put, and the police were coming. What I saw was not human and was not a native animal, but apparently, it didn’t want to hurt me, because if it wanted to, it could have. Later, I called the FBI and they said they cant help. Since then I cant sleep, and see that face and I’m scared to even sleep. I’m 22 years old and never have seen anything like that in my life. For proof please call the Orange County Sheriff Department. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Alabama - Pilot Report



My second sighting occurred in 1967, on the final leg of a trip to St. Louis, Missouri and back to Atlanta, Georgia. It was late afternoon, the sun had just gone down and the sky was quite bright with good visibility. In the southwest we noticed a very bright reddish-orange light that almost appeared like Venus would in a darker sky, but not in a color that Venus presents. It was just a short time later that we noticed the light was moving toward us. As it got closer we could see that it would pass behind our aircraft. There were two lights (objects) and their brilliance was nearly blinding, traveling in tandem and the rearward object slightly to the left of the leader. Their speeds were just fantastic! An estimate of 4000 mph. Their altitudes appeared to be in the 5000 feet range and it was my belief that they flew right over Redstone! They left no smoke trails or plasma trails and simply disappeared after passing behind us. This sighting was the most thrilling I've had so far.

North Carolina - Flying Triangle



SHILOH - A criminal justice professional was coming home from work February 8, 2004, at 6:20 AM, and spotted a craft flying at tree top level. He reports, “As I crossed a little bridge on 343 the craft flared to the left and flew south along 343 steadily increasing speed until I lost sight of the craft.” The underside of the craft was unusual with three conical shaped depressions that glowed a bluish color that turned to white as it picked up speed. The top of the flying triangle craft was jet black. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Ohio -The Green Object Was Streaking

MANSFIELD -- The green object was streaking across the sky on February 10, 2004, at 5:15 AM. It was bright green like the light on a stop light that seemed to be below the clouds, parallel with the horizon. The witness states, "I thought it was a plane crashing, but no sound was made by the object that was like a streaking comet but, much closer." Duration was for three seconds. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Indiana – Green Light Sighting



MAJENICA -- Two witnesses saw a craft traveling northbound over Indiana Highway 5, flying over the town. The car a little ways in front of me applied its brakes and may have seen it too. The witness states, “What I saw was a light green light fall from the sky in the north, slightly to the east on February 14, 2004, at 12:45 AM. At first I thought it must be a shooting/falling star, but it left no trail and looked nothing like any aircraft I have ever seen, and I have a decent knowledge of aeronautics. It fell from 75 degrees to 55 degrees, and then it disappeared just as it appeared. It looked almost as if it could be falling (if in fact it were) toward the Huntington Reservoir or the nearby airport. When we visited the reservoir seven minutes later there were about fifty geese in the spillway of the dam that were nervous and more vocal then normal. It was odd to see geese in the middle of the winter, since I have never seen geese there before. A pilot and another witness, also, saw something earlier that night. Thanks to Bryce W.




Arizona – Five Discs Spotted



SCOTTSDALE – A couple who are investors and own two companies witnessed five disk shaped ships enter the lower atmosphere at 11 PM, from the northeast and travel south on February 3, 2004. The witness writes, “Two ships were seen through my night vision scope, and this is how I know the shape of the ships.” We could hear two ships as they flew by. They sounded as though they were pushing against the air. All ships were glowing red, blue and orange. The faster the ships accelerated the lights would pulsate more rapidly. All the ships were of equal size and shape. We estimate each ship was the size of a small airliner. Her background was as an advertisement executive and my background was director of operations in my industry. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



England – Photo of Disc Shaped UFO Taken



PLYMOUTH – An amazing photograph was snapped by an amateur photographer who was trying out his new hi-tech digital camera. The image can only be described as an 'unidentified flying object' hovering above St. Budeaux. Another, equally stunning, image shows the same brightly illuminated object tilted at a different angle. UFO experts are highly excited by the pictures and the Royal Navy today asked the Herald to supply them with the photos -- because they want to study them.

Sweden – UFOs reported



KISTA - A strong bright light with yellow, blue and red colors was spotted on February 11, 2004, at 10 PM. The witness observed, The shape is different from craft to craft and some are round. They suddenly appear and just stop for two seconds then they go up higher in the air, and then they just fly away. The speed is ten times an airplane. First there were five, then they become 18. Two girls, 17-18 year old students had never seen a UFO before. Thanks to Peter DavenportUFOcenter



Australia - Disks Land Leaving Patches on the Ground



ALICE SPRINGS – On February 10, 2004, at 10:14 PM, a 16 year old observer and a few friends went out in the bush to look through a telescope when one asked, "Hey what are those things floating around?” They watched for a while and managed to get one in the telescope for a clear view. The observer says, “They were like saucers but there were four of them that had a green color, and were they hovering about 15-20 meters from the ground.” I didn't see any sort of alien life forms, although there were trees in the way so we didn't get a clear view of the ground. But I did hear wired and bazaar noises coming from the direction of the saucers that we watched for at least two minutes or even more. There were about 6-7 that departed, so I think that some were on the ground just sitting there. In an instant they were out of sight.

After they left, we went and looked and there were two patches on the ground, and some faint footprints were observed. No one was around so we stayed there for a while, just looking at the marks, and were totally amazed and a bit freaked out. My friends are older than me, one is 20, and the other 22. We all saw it well with the naked eye, and I, also, got the telescope on them, they looked unreal! Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Open Hearings - Congress should consider opening hearings on the hundreds of UFO sightings obtained each month and why two-thirds of Martian probes disappear.

Filer's Files #10-2004 Skywatch Investigations gExtrah

George A. Filer, Director MUFON Eastern

February 28,, 2004, Webmaster: Chuck Warren --

My website is at: www.georgefiler.com/


"Proof of ET on Mars E Rock"

Summary: Filer's Research Institute and Filer's Files is proud to announce the finding of evidence for extra-terrestrial intelligent life on Mars.

As MUFON's Eastern Regional Director this announcement is not made lightly and is based on a series of images from NASA/JPL Mars orbiters and rovers images. In recent weeks we have been closely monitoring the new rover's images. Professional photographer BC, Brad Small, Mike Fink, Norm Bryden, George Ritter, geologist John Thompson, and my webmaster Chuck Warren, have made excellent contributions to our research. We wish to show you some of the latest findings. The image below shows possible vegetation called 'blue berries' that seem to be growing as imaged by the "Opportunity" Mars Rover.




I noticed two other photos from the Spirit Rover that showed a strange rock that looked like a crab. The crab rock appeared to grow claws as shown in Filer's Files #9. Several experts sent objections stating that the apparent anomaly claw was caused by a change in camera angle between two cameras.

However, these images interested experts from around the country and helped point the way to more discoveries. It is my opinion that has been confirmed by several others, that there are alien symbols on the Martian rock nicknamed the "E Rock." On the left upper corner is a symbol that appears to be similar to our capital letter E. The top of the E may be closed like a P. A second symbol similar to our letter G is also apparent. A possible face also appears to be carved in the right portion of the rock. The combination of anomalous features seems to rule out natural geologic markings. The symbols are most similar to Greek or old English writing. The E was also used as a Roman numeral for 250 and was a borrowing from the Phoenician. These anomalies are shown on both right and left cameras eliminating camera angle as a possible cause. The symbol G was used as a Roman numeral for 400, and the seventh letter in the English alphabet from the Latin.

We can make the assumption that based on the evidence, that intelligent alien life once existed on Mars that the aliens looked humanoid and used symbols for writing similar to our own. The rock appears to have been chisled in the rock to form these symbols. This rock may have been carried to this position in the Gusev Crater by a possible flood or catastrophic meteor hit. Our team in the past has found structural shapes, possible vegetation, a network of glassy tubes, artistic imagery and sculpted faces - all that infer activity by a former civilization.

I would caution that these are initial findings and the images have been enhanced to bring out detail. However, they can be seen on multiple JPL images.

As I often say, "Don't believe me, believe your own eyes,"

Does anyone else see what seems apparent to us? Your confirmation will help indicate that life exists or once existed on Mars. I doubt these anomalies are caused by camera angle, or communication tricks. This rock is strong evidence for extraterrestrial life.

Brad, one of our experts states, "The microscopic pictures of the sandy soil at the Opportunity site, in which I see what, appear to be remarkably organic-looking, even familiar looking carbonaceous materials." There are many of these white-ish fragments and shapes all over the place. They look like bits of coral like you'd find on many beaches in any scoop of sand or they could be diatoms (or their skeletal remains)... The round ones all have little holes in them- ONE single hole in each round white shape. Have you ever seen a sea urchin's skeleton? They're bigger, but almost identical."

Myself and the others see evidence of life on Mars. We are on the verge of great discoveries and request your input and help.

Filer's Files #11-2004 Skywatch Investigations.

George A. Filer, Director MUFON Eastern

Mars Had Intelligent Life - Faces on the Mars ET Rock



The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo and

/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space.

These files make the assumption that extraterrestrial intelligent life exists. Astronaut Edgar Mitchell says, “Aliens are visiting Earth, The Day the

World Changed When Alien Faces and Writing Were Found on Mars,

Scotland Reports Finding a Skull artifact on Mars, Additional Artifacts

and Writing On Ornamented Stone, Faces On The ET Rock, Theological Implications of Alien Life, We Are Not Alone, Blueberries May Be Vegetation, Opportunity Rover Finds Strong Evidence Meridiani Planum Was Wet, Massachusetts -- Strange Bright Orange Light Hovering In Sky, New York – Witness Takes Photos, New Jersey – UFO Caught on Video, Virginia – Greenish glowing ball seen descending, Florida - Disk Seen By Four

Witnesses, Indiana - A Dark Triangle Moving Through The Sky, and in Iowa –

Three White Tear Drops.


Canada - The Craft Was Rotation and Emitting Colors, Venezuela - Intense UFO Activity Amid Political Unrest, and France - Pilot Report.



Astronaut Claims We Are Not Alone



The St. Petersburg Times, reports that Astronaut Edgar Mitchell announced. “The Earth is being visited by extraterrestrials.” The sixth astronaut to walk on the moon told 200 people in the audience. “We are not alone in the universe.” Further the President’s after Kennedy were not briefed on the situation.



The Day the World Changed With Faces With Writing on Mars



Filer's Research Institute and Filer's Files is proud to announce the finding

of evidence and artifacts that indicate extra-terrestrial intelligent life on

Mars. This announcement is not made lightly and is based on multiple

images from Mars Rover Spirit's NASA/JPL images. I have discussed the

announcement with John Schussler the Director of MUFON and he

cautioned my enthusiasm and stated, “I can see the apparent E on the rock. However, if you look at the other areas on the rock that catch the angle of the light, it appears that the E is part of that same light angle - an artifact not a real E. This is a situation similar to the Hoagland Mars face that was just a light angle artifact. Be careful getting to a conclusion on this one too quickly. Another photo with a light angle taken only a few minutes earlier or later would confirm or deny this.”


E above Face top or rock G face


We admit the symbols are difficult to see on some computer screens and

need further verification. I have made numerous unsuccessful calls to JPL,

and left numerous messages. However, we are working with over a dozen

images taken by the Spirit Rover that show the symbols and possibly two

faces taken over several minutes. When I was in Athens, Greece we saw

many similar markings, and broken carvings. It is my opinion that has

been confirmed by several others, that there are alien symbols on the

Martian rock nicknamed the "ET Rock." On the left upper corner is a symbol that appears to be similar to our capital letter E,the top of the E

may be closed like a P. A second symbol similar to our letter G is also apparent.



A possible face also appears to be carved in the right portion of the rock

with part of a second face in the center. The combination of anomalous features seems to rule out natural markings on the rock. The symbols are most similar to Greek or old English writing. These anomalies are shown on both right and left panoramic cameras eliminating camera angle as a possible cause.


We can make the assumption that based on the evidence, that intelligent alien life once existed on Mars and that the aliens looked humanoid and used symbols for writing similar to our own. The symbols appear to have been chiseled into the rock and the faces show form in three dimensions. This rock may have been carried to this position in the Gusev Crater by a possible flood or catastrophic meteor hit. Readers of Filer’s Files have found structural shapes, possible vegetation, a network of glassy tubes, artistic imagery and sculptured faces from satellite data - all that infer activity by a former civilization. Norman Bryden has a complete series of photos at:

I would caution that these are initial findings and the images have been

enhanced to bring out detail. However, they can be seen on multiple JPL

images taken on February 16 and 17, 2004, (sol 43 and 44). The symbols

are shown in at least a dozen separate images, taken by several different

cameras including panoramic left and right cameras and navigation cameras.

None of the other images show symbols ruling out transmission errors,

fakery, camera angle, and camera dust, etc. The impression of a face seems

to appear in several sun angles and with a couple different cameras. The

objects do not appear natural and suggest they have been designed by

intelligent extraterrestrials.



Scotland Reports Finding A Skull

Joe writes, “Like all photos it may just be camera angle or a trick of

the light, however it does look like a bird or animal skull. It can be viewed at this NASA sol photo=http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all/2/p/016/2P127793693

EFF0327P2371L7M1.HTML
And I have also attached a small portion of the photo for your perusal. Thanks to Joe (www.uforth.com)





Conway Costigan writes, “The Spirit PanCam image Sol 52 ID: 2P130989760EFF1120P2426R2M1 shows what may be a fragment

of a statue piece of ornamented stone that appears to be artistically

carved. It seems to have a series of Y’s not unlike the ET Rock. If

the area is examined closely, it has an interlaced design. Funny that

NASA would put this one front and center on their main page. Thanks

to Conway Costigan



BC, a professional photographer who is one of our top analysts says, “It’s a possibility the photo is a fake perpetrated by whom? The "letters"could just be natural formations that resemble letters but the odds of having two letters of similar type face on a rock by chance would be beyond astronomical. Remember that I also don't like the looks of some of the shadows in the picture. At least four black shadows appear to just be "things" painted out to resemble shadows. Having the original photos would make a real difference but we will never see those even though we paid for them.” Thanks to BC



Faces On The ET Rock



Actually there may be more than one face and this is speculation on my

part, becaue I see eyes, lips, cheek, and chin visible. The lips seem rather

wide. A damaged face can be seen in the center of the rock, that was likely damaged when Gusev Crater was formed. We admit these are forms that

exist in the eye of the beholder, but many others besides me have commented on the face. My grand daughter Anastasia saw the faces immediately, and showed a printed picture to her class. Everyone claimed to see them. JPL may not agree with our analysis of the ET rock but in my opinion it sculptured. I have seen similar ruins in Greece, Iran, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and Italy. Once we realize that life exists through out the universe and is visiting us, the detection becomes much easier.



You may not agree with me, but believe your own eyes.



Mars Stadium - Mars stadium also appears to have writing on it that look like an A and C symbols on right and center stadium. This view was taken

from a satellite overhead and shows a depression surrounded by a

high structure.


A and C or G




We know there are hundreds of planets outside our solar system

and the history of the ascent of humans indicates we had outside

help. It is my opinion that soon it will become apparent that

extraterrestrials have been visiting and helping us for thousands

of years. For example, writing developed in Egypt overnight.



Theological Implications of Alien Life



Some are worried about the theological implications if life is

recognized on another planet. The Bible is full of stories about

clouds that carry people and angels. Some of the description

reminds me of terraforming the planet. The Koran, the scriptures

of Islam uses the word ‘universes’ and makes it clear that the

cosmos contains other creations. Buddhism and Hinduism

contain evidence of extraterrestrials and welcome them. It is

time to realize we are not alone in the universe, trade and

interaction with the extra terrestrials. With JPL’s new

announcements of water on Mars it is apparent that both

primitive Earth and Mars were ready for life. Whether God

brought life or it was with panspermia. The next logical question

is did life totally disappear or did it continue and persist until today.

The face also appears similar to faces in Cydonia and Survis

Major. The face appears in 3D but is apparently damaged, perhaps

by the impact of a meteorite. Other debris is scattered around the area.

Actually, the Darwinian theory of evolution may be in question if Martians look the same as Humans ,because then we both required a mutual creator. And God said, "Let us make man in our image," Genesis 26

Water On Mars

Water exists on Mars in large quantities in polar caps of Mars and each

spring a great deal melts and appears to move toward the equator. There

are two places where water is known to exist in vast quantities, right at

the surface. The permanent ice cap at the North Pole is larger than Texas

and 3,000 feet thick. This would provide a civilization enough water to irrigate and grow food. We now have many indications that a civilization once existed on Mars and may continue despite the dry cold landscape. The recent Spirit Rover landing on Mars seems to point to underground water due to the mud like surface. Just when we expected a startling announcement the Spirit stopped sending data. It was quiet for two weeks and just as mysteriously, started broadcasting again. Layering can be seen by “Opportunity” in a dry lake bed. Micro-organisms, algae and other life forms swathed in biological antifreeze could be lurking just a few feet under the ice, scientists say. These living Martians might hibernate for the winter and come out each spring. Many areas of Mars are shown to be green in the spring indicating some sort of growth. It is doubtful rocks can change color over vast areas the size of France just because of warmer weather. The water appears to move from one area to another in tube like objects that cover hundreds of miles. Life exists in harsh climates on Earth in both our Arctic and Antarctic ice sheets. A system of tubes or pipes are visible on many images that could carry water. Since we discovered strange alien writing on Mars, I have been looking for some connection to human symbols. For example, the Egyptian symbol for water is ^^^^^^^^^ that look very similar to Martian tubes.

We Are Not Alone

Sixteen million years ago a meteorite slammed into Mars exploding

with the power of a nuclear weapon and sending giant fragments of

rock into space that eventually landed in Anartica about 13,000 years

ago. Recently, some was examined by scientists and in August 1996,

scientists from NASA surprised the world with the announcement

that Mars in the distant past revealed evidence of primitive life on a

Martian rock dubbed ALH 8400.

The ET Rock will likely become more famous because it announces

the discovery of intelligent extraterrestrial life. E and G like symbols

carved into the three foot rock are significant indications of intelligent

life. The three parallel lines that help make the E are unlikely in nature,

the almost perfect circle of the G or O is even more unlikely. The

mathematical are astronomical that these two letters could be carved

by nature. Preliminary identification also makes it likely that other

carvings are present. Each letter has lines emphasizing the symbols.



Opportunity Rover Finds Strong Evidence Meridiani Planum Was Wet



On March 2, 2004 JPL scientists announced the part of Mars that NASA's

Opportunity rover is exploring was soaking wet in the past as we have

predicted for several years. The rover found evidence in a rock outcrop

and the presence of sulfates, and niches where crystals grew. The scientists

are convinced that liquid water once flowed through these rocks. It changed

their texture, and it changed their chemistry," said Dr. Steve Squyres of

Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, principal investigator for the science

instruments on Opportunity and its twin, Spirit. "NASA launched the Mars

Exploration Rover mission specifically to check for water and an environment that could possibly have been hospitable to life. Today we have strong evidence for an exciting answer:



Pictures from the rover's panoramic camera and microscopic imager reveal

the target rock, dubbed "El Capitan," is thoroughly pocked with indentations

about a centimeter (0.4 inch) long and one-fourth or less that wide, with

apparently random orientations. This distinctive texture is familiar to geologists as the sites where crystals of salt minerals form within rocks that sit in briny water. Round particles the size of BBs are embedded in the outcrop. From shape alone, these spherules might be formed from volcanic eruptions, from lofting of molten droplets by a meteor impact, or from accumulation of minerals coming out of solution inside a porous, water-soaked rock.



Blueberries May Be Vegetation



Our scientists at Filer Research feel these are forms algae or lichens. Dr. Annamarie Johnstone writes, “The ‘blue berries in the Opportunity Rover image may be fruticose type rock lichens (symbiotic plants composed of fungi and algae.) Forming a mutualistic relationship, the dense skin of the

fungus protects the interior algal cells from desiccation, in turn, the photosynthetic algae, using sunlight, and produce food for the fungus.

Lichens are brightly colored pioneer plants in an ecosystem, capable

of "shutting down" metabolically, when subjected to unfavorable

environmental conditions. As a result, they are able to survive extreme

heat, cold and drought.



Lichens grow only when moisture is available, so the amount of moisture governs their rate of growth. Fungal acids of fruticose lichens decompose rock into soil, thereby providing necessary substrate for succession plants, such as mosses; hence lichens are designated pioneer species of bare-rock habitats. Composed mainly of carbohydrates with a small percentage of protein, rock lichen species can be a food source for animals and man.



Purportedly, the Mars Rovers are not equipped to analyze organic or carbon based substances, only inorganic substances can be analyzed and verified, an unfortunate oversight by scientific planners, to say the least.”

Thanks to Dr. Johnstone



The frigid community is made up mostly of primitive creatures called

Cyanobacteria, which live in tightly-woven groups called microbial mats.

The microbes produce chemicals that act as anti-freeze and UV shields,

protecting them from frigid temperatures and from sunlight, which is known

to pass relatively easily through water ice. I happen to live on a lake and most years the lake freezes but the fish and living organisms are protected

by the ice which insulates the lake life against the cold temperatures that can drop to minus 60 degrees Fahrenheit on Mars. There also appears to be salts and minerals that act as antifreeze. Many photos appear to show ice over rivers and lakes.

If this data ever reaches the public at large, perhaps our wars will seem less significant and we shall realize we are not alone in the universe. Interacting with alien intelligence could bring prosperity and peace to a troubled world.



Massachusetts -- Strange Bright Orange Light Hovering In Sky


WAREHAM -- It was about 8:00 PM on a wednesday February 11, 2004, that two other people and I were in on the second floor in a room watching TV and I noticed an orange light just hovering in the sky. It appeared to close and too bright to be a star. This is the 3rd or 4th time I've seen this object in roughly the same place. The object generally has 2 or 3 planes in its general vicinity, sometimes appearing to head towards the craft only to pass under it. I’ve seen several other reports of strange hovering orange lights and that is the only reason I am reporting this. The light generally hovers for 10-15 minutes, sometimes changing intensity then disappears, without actually moving. I have seen the light move on one occasion, very slowly a couple of degrees in the sky then disappear. On the 11th of February we got in the car to pick up a friend from night school and the light was obstructed by trees when we saw what looked a shooting star of the same oranges color of the light flying overhead at a speed not possible for any aircraft I’ve ever seen, and if it was a meteorite, the odds of it coming from the same apparent direction as the light we saw are most likely astronomical.

New York – Witness Takes Photos



STATEN ISLAND – Tops writes, “I’m 37 years old, and when I was about 14 years old, in 1983, its been a long time.” My friend and I were at a nearby pond and we looked up and saw the strangest ship. I will never forget it. It was oval to cigar shaped with lights around the whole ship. It moved very slowly back,forward, up and down .We both froze and were shocked. I said what in the world was that to my friend. He was shaking ,and I had goose bumps all over. For 2 minnutes were still looking at this ship, and then, it took off in a blink of an eye, I mean like turn your lights off and on real fast, sorry its hard to explain ,but there’s know way in my mind that ship was from this planet, please response thank you Topthat97



TRUXTON – The witness was standing on his front porch at 6 AM, on February 27, 2004, and noticed a very bright star in the clear sky, which appeared to be hovering over the top of the tree line. He states, “As I continued to look up at this star, it suddenly started moving slowly right to left while making a humming sound. It stayed above the tree line for approximately 15 minutes. I called my husband at work and he informed me to get the camera. I took three pictures of the object. I am hoping the photos got a clear shot of what I witnessed. After the pictures were taken, the object lowered itself behind the tree line. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



New Jersey – UFO Caught on Video



ALPHA - On February 27, 2004, when the husband came home, his 12 year old son and wife were very excited/nervous saying they had just seen a UFO and caught it on video. They said, the crafts were close, quiet and moved unlike airplanes. I watched a few minutes of the tape and being an airplane mechanic by trade, they did not have a classic light pattern of any commercial aircraft. It appears on tape to be three objects close together. Too close together off the sides moving irregularly, and one in center more classic, disc shaped, spinning as my wife said "Like a top".Intrigued I went upstairs to try to see what I just saw on tape for myself and again I caught on video this time what appeared, a very far distance off at this time, maybe 8-10 miles, and an unusually bright object over eastern Pennsylvania. It was most certainly not in the airplane flight path as planes taking off from Allentown appeared to be moving from the NW to the SE towards me at a steady speed. This object moved from the east due west.I've never really believed but it was unidentifiable to me. It was strange. Bright at times moving rapidly in the distance then gone. All total maybe 20 minutes. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

Virginia - Greenish Gowing Ball Seen Descending

FREDERICKSBURG -- My husband and I were standing on the balcony on February 8, 2004, of our second floor apt at 12:49 AM. In Fredericksburg, we live near the armory. We saw something not really sure of the shape. We were amazed because we have not seen anything falling from the sky with this strange greenish glow. There wasn't a sound. It looked like it was falling in slow motion, toward the Alum Springs Park. The sky was clear and you could see the stars fine. What ever this was did not look like any shooting star I have ever seen. I hope we were not the only ones to have caught a glimpse of this.Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Florida - Disk Seen By Four Witnesses

WEST PALM BEACH – The witness was called to the balcony to see a UFO by three other witnesses around 11:50, PM, on February 11, 2004. The witness states, “So, I look out and it has an orange shade/glow and it was oval/plate shaped.” The other witnesses told me before it came it was really close to them. But it was now about four miles away. Little by little it started to fade, then when it did,I kept staring at its location but it had disappeared. It moved from one location to another in a quick flash,leaving a lightening type fade from its movement. It kept doing this for about 5 more minutes when it finally disappeared. I and my house mates were amazed. We’re still a little shaken. Thanks to Peter Davenport DavenportUFOcenter

Indiana - A Dark Triangle Moving Through The Sky.

BLOOMINGTON – The witness was at a friend’s apartment on February 15, 2004, and I noticed that there was a large triangular object moving westward through the sky without any lights or sound at 10:50 PM. It moved slowly and I could see its outline because it blocked out the background behind it and it also reflected a small amount of light from the city below. Thinking that my eyes were playing tricks on me or my glasses had a glare, I removed my glasses and was still able to see the object and the small amount of light reflected from it. I watched it until it became hard to differentiate from the night sky. At that time I ran inside to get my friend.Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

Iowa - Three White Tear Drops

TITONKA -- Watching stars for physics class we saw three white tear drop shaped unidentified objects hovering in the sky for about a minute on February 10, 2004, at 10:30 PM. They appeared out of no where (or we didn’t see where they came from), hovered in sky for 45 sec to 1 min....very high up, kind of hard to see...they graduatually faded away...whitish bright teardrop shape in a triangle shape formation.Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter


Canada - The Craft Was Rotating and Emitting Colors

SPLIT LAKE, MB -- The light was not moving but it was rotating all the colors on the color spectrum on February 5, 2004, at 9 PM. It was in the air over the lake. I saw the same thing in the same area a few years back. I am a University graduate with a degree in Political Science, why are these things here? I will be attending Law School this fall.



BRITISH COLUMBIA -- Two witnesses on February 29, 2004, at 9:30 p.m. saw a very large, bright white object in the northwestern sky, that stayed in one place for about ten minutes, then appeared to fade in brightness slowly, then it gradually moved north over the period of about 15 minutes. It then slowly disappeared from view, it was far too bright to be a star, and did not move in the fashion of any satellite that I have ever seen.



The altitude, if it was in the atmosphere, was about the same as the Grouse mountain range if being viewed from Vancouver. The color was bright white, just like a very bright star, although it was about twice to three times the size of Venus. I did see one plane fly right in line with the object, although the plane was very far away Brian Vike, Director HBCC UFO Research Home - Phone 250 845 2189 email: hbccufo@telus.net Website: http://www.hbccufo.com



Venezuela - Intense UFO Activity Amid Political Unrest



Caracas - Escalante Hector Arturo writes, “While Venezuela's political future is debated with fights in the streets between adversaries and supporters of the Hugo Chavez government, a strange phenomenon, has been manifesting itself in Venezuelan airspace. UFOs were seen in the October during the uprising and photographs of a UFO over Caracas were taken. Two months later, a new chance photo of a UFO was taken during a renewed and well-attended social demonstration in Caracas, creating even further expectations as regards the phenomenon's manifestations. The time was between noon and one o'clock in the afternoon. Another "strange" thing was photographed. It was a dark, elongated object over the western area of Caracas. During the Mass Demonstration of February 4, for the third consecutive time it was possible for me to obtain another UFO image.



At the time, the political situation was worsening. In this new image, the UFO appears to be hovering over the central districts of the city, just as a multitude of government supporters met in the La Rinconada sector to pay tribute to those fallen during the attempted coup and conmemorate Chavez's first participation in Venezuelan politics. The November 28 photo with the February 4 one, were in almost the exact location. They give the impression that this was a strategic placmeent to carry out a mission that requires their presence during said moments. Surprising, isn't it? This is where the matter rests. Images can be seen at www.ovniaventura.com Thanks to Scott Corrales.



New Jersey – Children’s Abductions Investigation



MULLICA HILL -- Investigator Evelyn Galson reports, “Ann has been upset because they have been taking her children now. For awhile she was being left alone and instead they took Steven and Michele. She would become paralyzed while in bed and she would hear the aliens speak to her, in her mind. They would say," Be calm, don't struggle, we're not going to harm them. They interest us." But she would find marks on her children which would upset her greatly. In 1999 she took Steven to her doctor, because she found puncture wounds on him. There were three puncture wounds in the form of a triangle behind his knee. The doctor didn't know what could have done it and it took 4 1/2 weeks before the marks disappeared. Then in 2003 she found the same puncture wounds behind the knee of her daughter, Michele. Her marks only took 10 days to vanish.”



When Steven is taken he sees the aliens as Emperor Zurg from "Toy Story" but later he sees them as the grays. He says he gets taken through the floor and that he was in the living room and he saw his daddy and their pet cat. When Steven goes to bed he tells his Mom that he wants his socks on, Ann told him he should take off his socks at night to let his feet air. Steven won't listen to her,he has to have his socks on when he goes to bed. When they take him he doesn't want his feet to get cold. I guess he wasn't wearing them one night when they took him and his feet were cold, so he wants to be prepared now. Another day when Ann and Steven were watching the show called, "Stargate SG1", Steven said," Oh, look Mommy they're my friends, but they don't look just like that, they look a little different." He was talking about the alien characters in the show, that sort of look like grays. One night Ann woke up and couldn't move, but she could hear Michele on the baby monitor, she was talking to someone who was in her room. Ann knew they were in there with Michele, but she could do nothing to stop them from taking her child. Thanks to: Investigator: Evelyn Galson



Kenneth Jankowski writes, “I can confirm Steven's birth experience as reported in Filer’s Files #9, I also had pre-birth dialogue, and a choice of three women for moms.” Over time he will remember more, if you can show him a black and white photo of his mom and a color one, and then ask which picture looked like the Mother he picked. He should pick black and white photo for that is what this side is compared to over there. In November 1956, I was born breach, and had the cord around my neck in case I changed my mind. I remember going down a curvy tunnel with light and dark hues of gray, then entering the operating room at ceiling level and seeing a clock 5:56 AM. Then I entered my body while exiting my mom. Then that was it, I do remember some of the discussions I had pre-birth. I was volunteered, at that time against my will; I had asked for certain factors and was denied. A funny line now that I used was “I don't want to go down there, people stink!!! And I chose my mom because I had been with her before. Thanks to: KennethJankowski KennethJankowski@cs.com



France - Pilot Report -SVC10 Flight London to Nairobi

A pilot reports about his SVC10 flight, direct London to Nairobi on a night flight in 1971: Flying over France, at 30,000 feet, above a layer of alto-stratus cloud, whose tops were sitting about 10,000 feet below us, I saw out to the left, below us five lighted 21 foot objects, in loose formation. They were orange/yellowish, not too bright, located between us and the clouds, and pacing us. As I was captain, I turned the aircraft this way and that, so all crew could see them. As suddenly as they had appeared, they suddenly stopped and slowly sank through the clouds causing a lovely glow for several seconds. We made no effort to contact ATC.We carried UFO report forms in our operations flight boxes in the Super VC 10 aircraft in East African Airways but any mention of UFOs put you in the 'cookie' category, so we didnt bother to make them out. This was despite the famous East African Airways DC3 sighting, well documented in many books, where the plane got permission to leave the airway and fly once round Mt Kilimanjaro, to allow all passengers and crew to view a five kilometer long solid metal 'ship' sitting calmly above the mountain on a crystal clear day and NOBODY had a camera on board.

Letters G and E found on Mars rock.

Mars – The Living Planet

Since 1877, when Schiaparelli announced his discovery that a network of straight
lines covered Mars surface, this finding has been the subject of great controversy
among astronomers. American astronomer Percival Lowell thought the lines
represented the work of intelligent beings, and interpreted them has canals that
brought water from the poles and caused green vegetation that sprouted each
spring in 60 degree weather at the equator.


Throughout my life I have searched the ruins of ancient civilizations in Egypt,
Mexico, US, Turkey, and England. Additionally, as an intelligence officer, I
evaluated bomb damaged sites in Vietnam. Preliminary Filer’ Research Institute
findings indicate we have found evidence of an ancient civilization on Mars. An
early and non-conclusive theory indicates an extraterrestrial settlement was
destroyed most likely by an asteroid or meteorite blasting debris out of the Gusev
Crater for several miles around with the power of an atomic bomb.
We have nicknamed the city “Gavesak” based on some of the letters or symbols
we have found. The area is covered with millions of rocks laying in the soil
sticking up in various angles. Some have landed on each other. Consequently,
we are looking at bits and pieces of rock that appear to be the remains of what
as once a city or temple. Although it is difficult to determine a date this happened
based on the slim evidence, all indications are that the blast occurred thousands,
if not millions of years ago.


Gusav Crater Contains Fossils


There is the fascinating possibility that the water-laid sediments in Gusev crater
could contain fossils. In 1995, Gusev crater was included in NASA's report,
"An Exobiological Strategy for Mars Exploration" (NASA Publication SP-530)
as a priority site for future biological exploration.



If intelligent life existed on Mars the Ma'adim Vallis, in the southern cratered
uplands, one of the largest valley networks on the planet is an ideal place for
city. There would have been plenty of river water available from the valley that
extends some 900 kilometers, passing through the 160-km-diameter Gusev
crater at 14.7oS, 184.5oW. Younger, smaller impact craters on the southern
and northern rims of Gusev opened the pathway for water from Ma'adim Vallis.
Although some construction or blasting could have opened the flow of the river.
The Martian climate, large amounts of water, composition of the soils does not
rule out life either past or present. It is difficult to determine which impact caused
the destruction of “Gavesak” and the ejection of its debris around the crater.


Viking Lander Found a Letter 'B' on Mars


When the Viking Space Craft landed on Mars in 1976, it captured images of a
rock with a ‘B’ symbol carved into a rock. It was dismissed because it was
unlikely Martians would use our English alphabet. Many of us thought it might
be Martian, and in January of 1977, the National Geographic came out with an
article favorable to the search for life providing data by Dr. Gerald V. Levin one
of the most brilliant scientists in the country.



Cyanobacteria Found by Microbioligist


Microbiologist Dr. Annamarie Johnstone writes, Proof that living microorganisms
exist in the soil on Mars, was found in 1976, during the Mars Viking Lander
Mission. Dr. Gerald V. Levin, came to this conclusion after developing a
successful technique, using automated instruments, to detect microbial life that
has earthlike metabolism. In his Labeled Release Experiment of the Lander
Project, Martian soil was inoculated into sterile culture media and incubated,
to detect gas production. A circadian (daily) rhythm of 24.66 hour gas release
indicated that microbial life exists in the top layer of the Martian surface. The
current Mars Opportunity Rover spectrographic instruments found elevated
levels of sulfur in the form of sulfates in the Martian soil, that would indicate
an abundance of available oxygen to oxidize sulfur to this state. Photosynthetic,
oxygen producing Cyanobacteria in and on the Mars substrate may be the
source of oxygen for oxidation of sulfur, as well as iron, on the planet.



As Cyanobacteria (Cyanophyta) increased the oxygen content of the earth's
atmosphere in the Proterozoic era, iron sediments were oxidized into red ferric
oxide, resulting in a change of color in earth's sedimentary layers from gray
to red. If like bacteria are present on Mars, this may account for the
preponderance of red sediments on Mars, as well. Cyanobacteria are also
known as Blue Green Algae (Cyanophyta), prokaryotic (primitive) cells
lacking a nuclear membrane and some cellular organelles. Blue and green
pigments in the cells are involved in photosynthetic metabolism. The
"Blueberries" described in the Mars Opportunity Rover report may be
living Cyanobacteria encased in a protective fungal sheath (lichens) and
or fossilized Cyanobacteria called stromatolites. The latter develop as these
bacteria initiate precipitation of calcium carbonate in water, surrounding the
bacterial colonies, and trapping the cells in sedimentary concretions. This
process continues to occur on the earth today and may occur on Mars
when water is available. "Blueberries" in the sedimentary rock layers of
Mars may be stromatolites. Thanks to Dr. Annamarie Johnstone, Ph.D.

The famous blueberries on Mars


Journal of Microscopy Claims Life on Mars


It is interesting to note that, “The Journal of Microscopy announced just last week
that Australian scientists believe they have found evidence that life once existed
on Mars." They have found that microscopic fossils of primitive bacteria-like
organisms in a Mars meteorite match characteristics of bacteria found in mud in
Queensland.”



Evidence of an Ancient Civilization Found



Our examination of thousands of images has led us to theorize that we might be
observing an ancient civilization similar to the Mayan/Olmec or Egyptian
Civilizations. Strangely, the symbols and writing are very similar to English.

The symbols or letters A, E, G, H, P, V, and Y have been found. The Y
symbol is the most numerous and often has deep round holes drilled at the
three corners. This gives us a clue concerning when the symbols may have
been brought to Earth.


'Y' is not in the Phoenician alphabet, but is in the
Greek alphabet. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica the Egyptians
first developed writing very suddenly with hieroglyphics, but with the
invention of papyrus paper much was passed on to the Phoenicians, in
about the 10th century BC. The Phoenicians are thought to have developed
most of our known alphabet with 24 consonants that were then transmitted
to Greece. Ezekiel records that he saw the wheel near Babylon about 600
BC. We can speculate that there was some form of contact at that period.

Many rocks appear to have artistic carvings and craftsman like work in the
stone. One rock appears to be the sculptured head of a nobleman that looks
very similar to depiction's of heads found today in the Yucatan Peninsula and
the ancient Maya region of Mexico.



Notice the 'Y' at the lower right carved in stone.

Y

Note: Side view of face similar to Mayan Photo below from National Geographic

Society "The Mysterious Maya" of similar facial structure and head dress.
Mayan writing is quite different from that found on Mars. It is apparent that the
development of an alphabet on Mars and a similar one here by accident is very
unlikely and indicates some sort of communication between the planets. A study
or our alphabet and the Martian one would likely reveal a time frame of
intervention. Also the carvings suggest large humanoids.



The Bible give us some hints, “God created man in his likeness.” And it came
to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters
were born unto them, that the sons of God saw the daughters of men were fair;
and they took them wives of all which they chose. There were giants in the
earth in those days and also after that, when the sons of god came in unto
the daughters of men of renown.” Genesis Chapter 6. 1,2,- 4



The faces on the Martian rocks provide a clue to the origin of some races on
Earth. They remind me of the classic features on the Olmec or Maya natives
in Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala. When I visited Mexico, I noticed the
sloped back heads, large wide noses and lips on many of the Mayan people.
Some of the construction debris also reminds me of much of the stone
construction throughout the ancient Middle East. I suggest caution, because
a great deal more study is needed to confirm these preliminary findings.



Notice the square hole found in several stones to stabilize construction
and possible face.




We get some interesting confirmation from the story of creation of the Mayas
contained in “The Code of the Kings,” book by Linda Schele and Peter
Mathews. “The third Creation was destroyed by a great flood on earth.
When the Maize Gods arrived at the place of the new Creation, they sprang
up from a crack in the back of a Cosmic Turtle.” The Maya saw this turtle as
the three stars that we call Orion’s Belt, and they also saw the crack in the
turtle's back as the ball court. Once reborn, the Maize Gods directed four
old gods to set up the first Hearth of Creation to center the new order. The
gods set up this hearth on 13.0.0.0. or August 13, 3114 B.C.” page 37



So the Maya’s and scholars claim a connection. We continue to gather proof
of a former civilization on Mars and urge your input. We urgently need
archeologists, biologists, zoologists and people with similar expertise.

JPL/NASA has informed us that since there was no chance of life on
Mars, they do not have expertise in these fields of life. Additionally, there
are no tests for life contained on the Mars Rovers. Their $800 million
purpose for the landings was to find water and they have accomplished
their mission.


Both Cosmonauts and Astronauts such as Edgar Mitchell who walked on
the moon are making pronouncements that the Earth has been visited by
extraterrestrials. See:

ANCIENT OLMECS HAD CELESTIAL NAVIGATION FORMULAS

Astronaut Gordon Cooper in his book "A Leap of Faith" tells the reader
his strong views on the existence of extraterrestrial intelligence and even
the distinct possibility that we have already had contact." His photographic
team at Edwards Air Force Base photographed a landing of a disc craft.
Astronaut Gordon Cooper in his book states, "During my final years with
NASA, I became involved in a different kind of adventure: undersea
treasure hunting in Mexico. One day, accompanied by a National
Geographic photographer, we landed in a small plane on an island in
the Gulf of Mexico; local residents pointed out to them pyramid-shaped
mounds, where they found ruins, artifacts and bones. I contacted the
Mexican government and was put in touch with the head of the National
Archaeology Department, Pablo Bush Romero." Together with Mexican
archeologists the two went back to the site. After some excavating,
Cooper writes, "The age of the ruins was confirmed at 3000 B.C.
Compared with other advanced civilizations, relatively little was known
about the Olmecs who made large statues of their faces." "Engineers,
farmers, artisans, and traders, the Olmecs had a remarkable civilization.

But it is still not known where they originated... Among the findings that
intrigued me most: that, when translated, turned out to be mathematical
formulas used to this day for navigation, and accurate drawings of
constellations, some of which would not be officially 'discovered' until
the age of modern telescopes. "It was this, rather than his experiences
as an astronaut, that triggered Gordon Cooper's "Leap of faith":
"This left me wondering: Why have celestial navigation signs if they
weren't navigating celestially?" And he asks: "If 'someone' had
helped the Olmecs with this knowledge, from whom did they get it?"

Thanks to Gordon Cooper's book, "A Leap of Faith"Chapter 11



Sea Lilly's on Mars


Jason Lange writes, “ I’m very familiar with fossils found in Colorado, and
the fossils are shown are Crinoids (sea lillys) they are very common here on
earth and I've seen thousands. There are many different types. They are found
where a body of water once existed. If this is a crinoid like I believe it is, then
there was life on Mars." Thanks to Jason Lange (Grand Junction Colorado)


Others See Faces on Mars


Mr. Filer, First, I must congratulate you on your excellent site at: ww.georgefiler.com/ .
I came upon it by surfing and spent a good hour perusing your links and articles.
Something became quite apparent to me upon first viewing, and I am wondering if
you have noticed it as well. In your fourth picture down in the main page (ET Rock),
I noticed a distinctly alien face. I don't have Photoshop, and I cannot outline the face
on the picture as I see it, so I will try to describe it as best as I can. Maybe you will be
able to outline it. Let's imagine the E Rock is a gerbil facing left. You can see it's snout
and the ear, laying against its body, the buttocks resting on the ground. If you look where
the eye would be you can see a dark oval/round shape that can work as an eye. Above
the dark oval/round shape you see a smaller bean-sized dark shape (maybe 70% NE
from the shape and directly above it). Above from this shape, to the right and some 60%
NE from the kidney bean shape we can see a shape that looks like an eye. Ok, so take
the eye, the kidney bean shape, which looks like a nose, and the dark oval/round shape,
which looks like a gaping mouth, and you have a distinct alien face. The right eye is missing,
but the alien appearance is very obvious to me. Glaring.Thanks to Acriedel. Please visit

IMAGE OF TREES, FOREST, STREAM AND OTHER OBJECTS


Engineer Norman Bryden writes, "Here are the links to the full image of the forest and other

Conceding that Mars has the chemistry necessary for life is tantamount to an open
Invitation for microbiologists to join JPL's zealously guarded ranks. For scientists
supposedly enamored with "searching for life" on the Red Planet, the JPL team has
always been careful to exclude the life sciences from its post-Viking Mars ventures
that cost close to a billion dollars. Neither of the rovers has any life-detection
instrumentation nor do future probes have instruments for detecting life. I urge
Dr.Charles Elachi Director Jet Propulsion Laboratory to look at some of these images
that appear as present vegetation, trees, and a possible river
on Mars.

New York – Flying Triangle and Huge UFO


NYACK -- When crossing the Tappan Zee bridge on February 21, 2004, at 3 PM,
my wife snapped photos of the area because she though it would be a nice place
to buy a house. I downloaded the pictures and to my surprise there was some
thing in the picture that shouldn't have been there. UFOcenter




New York City (Brooklyn) -- A magazine/book editor and writer was walking
down Pacific Street in Brooklyn, on February 14, 2004, about 7:30 PM, when
he saw a glowing whitish neon-green orb shoot through the sky, going south
west, faintly lighting up the night. He reports, "I stopped in my tracks as it
moved as fast as a shooting star, straight on the horizon, about 30,000 feet
but it was huge." The size of tennis ball at arm's length, perfectly spherical,
and it left a trail in its wake. It receded as it moved away from me in a straight
line, and then vanished into the darkness. "I've never seen anything like it
before in my life!" Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Delaware -Circular Lights


NEWCASTLE -- Every night you can see this round object in the sky that
only moves slightly in the vicinity o Newcastle Air Base. Sometimes it will
move real fast. Other times you can see military planes circling around it,
usually when it is lower. You can definitely tell it is not a plane, star, or
anything that is a common sight on a daily basis. On February 28, 2004,
at 6 PM, we saw it. You can see it best, when there are clouds in the sky
and there are no stars visible to the eye. Sometimes it will vanish suddenly.
but it is very suspicious. UFOcenter


Florida – Lights and Flying Triangle

NOKOMIS The object appeared to be over the Gulf of Mexico on February 11, 2004,
at 8 PM. At first there were three lights with rays of light above and below. Then two
sets of three smaller lights appeared between the three lights. It began vertical and
depending where you stood it was horizontal or at varying degrees turned. There were
up to 21 lights. I called the police and an officer witnessed this as well. He called in a
helicopter and when it was headed in the direction of the lights they disappeared only
to return within five minutes. We saw them in the same location from night fall until 8 PM,
so for three other nights and then we returned from our vacation. UFOcenter


FT. WALTON BEACH - A craft was hovering over an area at the edge of Eglin Air Force
base runway on February 13, 2004, at 9:30 PM. The craft was triangular with bright lights
at bottom and maneuvered up and down and side ways with absolutely no sound and
appeared to be about the size of a Stealth. The craft was either on or near the air base and
was sighted by someone who is very familiar with that area. I am convinced the Air Force
had to have known about this craft or was responsible for it. Perhaps the reason so many
UFO sightings are in the Panama City area. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter


Alabama - Fireball Like the Shuttle Explosion!

HARTSELLE - A couple was leaving their parents house on February 22, 2004, at 8:05 PM,
when they noticed the brightest object they had ever seen in the sky. It traveled across the
sky in a northwestern trajectory. The witnesses commented, “It was almost identical to the
footage of the recent shuttle explosion and we saw it burning entering the Earth’s atmosphere
with the longest tail we have ever seen. “ We watched the last meteor shower in its entirety
and never saw anything resembling this!” It traveled about 10 feet then exploded. After that it
traveled about 25 more feet and exploded again and the show was over. My father-in-law works
for NASA and has confirmed no humans in space at that time with the exception of the space
station which moved over head thirty minutes earlier. He contributes this to falling space debris
.Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Ohio - Silver Metallic Wingless Cigar

LYNDHURST -- Driving north on Brainard road, just before Mayfield on February 11, 2004, at 8:22
AM, the witness noticed a long, silver object about 50 degrees above horizon. He was stopped at
a traffic light and realized the object had no wings or tail assembly. It was 1/2 inch in length at arm’s
length with high reflectivity and one dark spot midway on the body. The object kept a constant side
on view, rapidly receded away to the north in less than five seconds and disappeared. It did not bank
and turn, there was no vapor trail, I heard no sound. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter


Oklahoma – Saucers and Three Bright Lights Hovering


SALLISAW – The observers saw a very bright light in the southwest sky on February 14, 2004,
about 7:30 PM, that seemed to be hovering at a low altitude. They state, “We began to look around
and saw two more, one to the east, and the other to the west. We got our binoculars out to get a
better look and saw a saucer shaped object, it was very large. The object seemed to have very
bright lights in quarter sections around it. The lights were fire red, purple, orange and a light green
color. The other two were the same but smaller. the one in the southwest was lowering itself slowly
to the ground as it did it turned triangular shaped and all we could see was a fire red color with clear,
bright light glowing around it. It went down into the side of a mountain. Then we started looking at the
other two. They moved back and forth and up and down then they just disappeared. Thanks to Peter
Davenport

Texas - Disc Shaped Object
ALEDO -- At about 5:00 PM, the witness spotted something outside on February 27, 2004, at 5:30 PM,
asked his family about a high flying object. The second witness went outside and looked up to see an
object floating along at a leisurely pace. The object would waiver back and forth showing that it was a
flat disc. I watched it for about 10 minutes before it floated quite high and became very hard to see. I
wouldn’t be reporting this except for the fact that this object seemed to be rather large, and it was a disc
shape. There were no lights at all on the object, no sound, and it had a shiny metallic skin. I "think"
there was a design on the flat face of the object, but I couldn't make it out. Thanks to Peter Davenport
UFOcenter


Washington -- Three Hovering Sparkling Objects


SEATTLE -- While taking a walk on Capitol Hill overlooking Downtown waterfront on February 29, 2004,
at 11:20 PM, the witnesses noticed a rapidly sparkling object in the sky. It had no FAA strobe pattern and
was sparkling at a rapid pace changing colors all the while. It would change colors from a bright white to
yellow, blue, bright red, and green which could be seen just before it dimmed. We watched it for almost an
hour hoping it would move or do something but all it did was hover in the same spot. No star field was
visible this night and it was too close and bright to be a star.


I must say that we saw two other objects that matched the description of the main object, but the two other
ones were farther away and disappeared from view. I am not sure if they flew away in the opposite direction
to us or if they literally disappeared. They were in a row stretching out to the west.
Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Canada – Flying Disco Light

CALGARY – The witness, a business owner, was facing west and noticed a strange very high pitched sound.
I looked up and saw what appeared to be a helicopter with a flashing red tail light on February 12, 2004, at
2:3O AM. It made no sound as it circled about 150 meters over my roof in about a half kilometer radius
around the neighborhood. It circled counterclockwise 3 times going over the roof out of sight each time. I
also could not see any of the fuselage except for a faint half-circle that I guess was the front. Then suddenly,
just before it disappeared over the roof for the third time a rectangular pulsing-strobe light fired up under the
half-circle and it was also multicolored. The hair on my neck stood up and I ran to get my binoculars.
Disappointingly, I had no film for my camera. It circled two more times over the house but did not fire its
strange light. Another very weird thing, when I looked at it through the binocs I could not make out any details
of the fuselage. Thanks to Brian Vike CANADA HBCC Research


Caribbean Cruise - Not Planes But UFOs

Cozumel, Mexico - A group of observers were on a Royal Caribbean cruise ship, the Navigator of the Seas.
The witness states, "I was celebrating my 15th birthday and we got out of the disco for teens around 3:50 AM,
on February 14, 2004, when my friends and my chaperons saw three bright lights." They were white, they
weren't moving and were positioned on a diagonal line. We thought they were planes, but they didn't move and
they didn't have lights like a plane. We were over water so there wasn't any land nearby and they didn't make
sounds like a plane. Then, we thought they were lights on an island but there were no islands. They weren't
satellites because they were too close to the ocean. (The day before we left Cozumel, we heard of many
sightings in Mexico.) After a while the first UFO, the lowest one took off, colored lights turned on and it disappeared.
The second lowest UFO took off the same way and there was no sound and no trail Finally, the third one took
off the same way and we were really scared!! That’s when I realized that maybe those stories about UFO's could
be true. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter


UK/England – Cigar Shaped UFO

CHELMSFORD -- The 5 craft hovered in a triangle shape and then seemed to freeze, and then the craft sped
off without a trace on February 13, 2004, at 3 PM. The craft were fully visible and were quite low, the bottom
side of the craft each had a black circle on the bottom. They sounded like a cross between a lawn mower and
a vacuum cleaner. Inside the house all radios had a strange chatter on them which stopped when the craft
went away. When the craft left there was a light red trail which hung around for about 10 minutes. Before the
craft left little black dots (like spores) fell to earth


NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE --- Three friends were standing on the bridge on
February 12, 2004, at 12:43 PM, when all of a sudden a long shaped craft
appeared. It had a white flashing light in the center which was surrounded
by six to eight blue lights. It stayed still, then disappeared off into the sky
again. ((NUFORC Note: Date is approximate. PD))


Poland -Three Flying Triangles Moving Fast


WARSAW -- We were going home with my friends taking a shortcut by the forest on February 21, 2004, at 2
PM; suddenly we saw three triangle shaped aircraft moving from south to north at a terrific speed. We heard a
little bit strange sound; it was something like an electrical transformer or high voltage converter. Two of these flying
triangles had four lights, and three of them were in the corners of the triangular shape vehicles and had blue color.
One light was at the center of the plane/ship with a red/orange color and was pulsing. The third ship was bigger
than those two described above and had more lights located at the edges. The objects were flying in ‘V’ formation
and were looking marvelous... I'll never forget this night. ((NUFORC Note: Report appears to have been submitted
from Poland. PD)) Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

Is Earth a Colony of Mars?



The Filer Research Institute is dedicated to finding evidence for extraterrestrial life in the universe and for providing reports of these encounters. Dr. Gilbert Levin says Viking Lander Found Life on Mars, More Mars Symbols Found by Expert in Israel, Dr. Johnstone’s Living Blueberry Analysis, Rovers Take Images of UFO's, "Meteorite Yields Evidence of Primitive Life On Early Mars, New Jersey – Elongated Disc UFO, Tennessee – Family Sees Flying Saucers, Missouri -Orange Spheres, Iowa - Flying Saucer and Red Marks, Missouri -Orange Spheres, Washington –Investigation of Entity Pulls Man From Trailer, Hawaii - Distant Moving Star, Canada – Bright Ring of Red Lights, UK/Scotland - Disk Seen for Several Nights, England - Diamond Hovers, Sweden – Fast Moving Lights, and New Zealand - Nine Orange lights Head Out To Sea



Dr. Gilbert Levin Says Viking Found Life on Mars



Monday, I spoke with Dr. Gilbert Levin who designed the Viking laboratories tests for life on Mars. He stated, "Mars has life and for some reason JPL seems to have a closed mind on the subject." Why is the NASA scientific community blatantly ignoring the crucial scientific data to support Mars life? It may be the result of a Brookings Institute report that the discovery of intelligent life could cause a world wide crisis.



In 1997, Biospherics' President and CEO, Dr. Gilbert V. Levin, announced his new conclusion that his 1976 Viking Labeled Release (LR) life detection experiment found living microorganisms in the soil of Mars. Objective application of the scientific process to 21 years of continued research and to new developments on Mars and Earth forced this conclusion. Of all the many hypotheses offered over the years to explain the LR Mars results, the only possibility fitting all the relevant data is that microbial life exists in the top layer of the Martian surface.

Dr. Levin was hired by NASA to develop a laboratory to prove that life exists. He designed experiments that tested the soil of Mars nine times at two different landing sites under different temperature regimes and environmental conditions. All his data point to microbes metabolizing a nutrient solution and giving off an indicative radioactive CO2 gas. The tests conducted on Mars were positive indicating life, but were not accepted. Dr Levin states, “We have waited ten years for all of the theories, experiments and results produced by the many scientists investigating our experiment to be reviewed before voicing a committed conclusion of our own. After examining these efforts in great detail, and after years of laboratory work trying to duplicate our Mars data by non-biological means, we find that the preponderance of scientific analysis makes it more probable than not that living organisms were detected in the LR experiment on Mars.



This is not presented as an opinion, but as a position dictated by the objective evaluation of all relevant scientific data. In conclusion, then, we submit that this real possibility for Martian biology should be an important--even dominant--consideration in the future exploration of Mars. This clearly is not the case at the present time, according to published NASA plans for continuing the unmanned exploration of Mars which neglect the biology issue. The search for life on Mars, when evidence for its possible existence offers such important potential, should have much greater significance for the planning of such missions.” Thanks to Dr. Gilbert Levin.



Was Earth a Colony of Mars?



The evidence for life on Mars is accumulating each day and indicates its civilization is much older than ours. My analysis was based on twenty years experience as a flier, an intelligence officer and as a photo interpreter. Additionally, I have input from an experienced group of researchers and professional photographers and scientists. When photographic evidence suggested we had found potential Air Force targets, I would launch aircraft to obtain higher quality images. "I wish I could launch missions on interesting targets on Mars for high resolution images!" We thank JPL for making the evidence available from satellite, rover, and microscopic images that to us indicates life exists on the planet Mars. Unfortunately, due to the limitations on our web site and in sending data, I can not provide our readers with the same quality of images we are using for analysis.



We encourage you to visit the JPL web site at http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all/ and check out the artifacts for yourself. The Spirit Rover landed in the Gusev crater and in our opinion struck an ancient city or temple site on Mars that we have nicknamed “Gavesak” based on some of the letters or symbols we have found. The area is covered with millions of rocks laying in the soil that were once part of this city that included stone carvings, symbols and sculpted faces. Although it is difficult to determine a date this happened based on the slim evidence, all indications are that the blast occurred thousands, if not millions of years ago. The main Gusev crater is estimated to be almost four billion years old when reptiles were beginning on Earth. We just located a #3 and #4 some other writing on two center rocks. I, also, located a ‘Sv’ mark on a large rock taken from the Mars Pathfinder landing site showing the sojourner rover in 1997.



I also just located an ‘A’ and a ‘V’ on different rocks, also the number ‘17’on a rock, although this may represent a symbol ‘LI’ upside down. http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all/

2/p/061/2P131778439EFF1159P2212R2M1.JPG



Our experts in various life sciences are finding strong evidence of life. Below are some of our findings. Evidence of vegetation including trees, water, lichen and fossils indicating marine life and cynobacteria is evident. Since there are no means for testing for life on the rovers, photo interpretation becomes paramount. Many microscopic images from Opportunity Rover appear as bioenous sediments that argeological terms as "foraminiferal ooze" that are essentially marine sediments from the bottom of large bodies of water. http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all

Did Noah Come From Mars?



We can speculate that Mars gained intelligent life far in advance of Earth. A sophisticated society was formed not unlike Earth today, but a terrible disaster apparently occurred. Asteroids with the force of many nuclear weapons apparently exploded destroying many areas of the planet. The remaining inhabitants probably chose several courses of action. Many went underground to live, some may have built space ships and headed for Earth.



The story of Noah and the carrying of animals may have been an allegory of a space ship bringing animals here.


Note: Humanoid anomaly at top left. Image was found by Norman Breyden.
We have located an image of a humanoid being we’re calling ‘Noah’ that
is next to a large crater. At his feet there is an apparent line of writing to
the right of the prominent crater. This image indicates the intelligence
had built a message for posterity. We are attempting to decipher.
Unfortunately, our consultant in ancient languages Mario Pazzaglini, Ph.D.
has passed away.


Life is likely to follow a pattern of migration through the galaxy. K. E. Tsilkovsky said that colonization and not evolution, may be the major factor in the spread of life in the universe.” The gravity on Mars is much less than Earth's and interplanetary flight distorting the gravitational field would have been much easier for them. If intelligent life forms migrate to new worlds, such as traveling the 140 million miles from Mars, it would be logical to take seeds, plants and animals to start basic agriculture. On Earth many basic foodstuffs, grains and some domestic cattle have no traceable wild ancestry. Such ancestry may have been brought to Earth from Mars. The beginning of Earth’s agriculture occurred about ten thousand years ago in what now is northern Iraq when wheat was first cultivated in the Neolithic Revolution. There are many symbols on Mars of

life forms. Many can be seen on my website.



More Mars Symbols Found by Expert in Israel



Daniel L. Levy writes, “The magnificent color picture you sent me was unfortunately too small for the "E" to be clearly visible. I did, however, finally find 13 views of your boulder (with these stunning hills behind it!) that were taken by Spirit's pancam on Sol 44. While searching, I found a similar rock, that not only has an "E", but also a stylized Hebraic "Shin", the power symbol of, well, Adonai-Zebaot Himself!. http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all/

2/n/051/2N130887058EFF10AGP1868L0M1.JPG, taken by the navcam on sol 51: However, in the next picture, taken by the navcam's right "eye", only the Shin remains somewhat visible. These photos, apart from their stark beauty, do not, in my opinion, enable a clear-cut conclusion as to whether these boulders have been carved with letters, or if they just exhibit random natural shapes.





On Spirit sol 65, I found an artifact which cannot by any means be explained away as a random basalt feature. This is a jaw-dropping, unarguably nonrandom shape! Please, also, take a look at the microscopic camera views that were made of this intriguing, artificial-looking object. I have a degree in Agriculture, and I'm trained as a field zoologist and as a microbiologist, and my weapon of choice is the microscope. I, also, took some Geology in my time, and my father and I+ used to be keen rockhunters. Keep up the good work! Thanks to Daniel L. Levy.



Caution From a Professional Sculptor



Mr. Kim Shaffer a professional sculptor writes, “As somewhat of an expert, qualified because I have probably searched for, carried, cleaved and cut more terrestrial ‘rocks’ than anyone alive, I offer these points of possible explanation”. I have for 28 years been a sculptor, working in natural stones and have very many times, found stone, in situ, having strange characteristics. Some will have almost face-like areas, some will have fractures or almost geometric patterns from impact fracturing or natural abrasion. I have noticed that the harder the stone, the more bizarre the patterns. When I cleave or split hard stone very often there are almost "letter-like "or "face like" features in the stone.



One final point, the face on the mars rock is in a recess and on a fracture line, with the rest of the surface of that rock in a rough unaltered state. I, as a sculptor, would not go to the massive effort to carve a face on a stone without altering any other parts of the stone's surface, nor could I do so. I am not saying your assumptions are wrong, you may be 100% right, but there are other possibilites. Thank you for introducing a subject that we can all debate and enjoy. Mr Kim Shaffer Asst State Director, MUFON of Tennessee



Mars – Catch Basins and Dams and Mars



Inspection Engineer John E. Combest writes, “My transmittal of the annotated photos covering the Mars photo of a Lake-with-artificial-Dam was delayed because its original size - transmittal of the 7.64MB photos was too large to be permitted by my internet provider. Therefore - lacking any software by which I could reduce the pixel count - I resorted to "print screen" tactics to reproduce the document so that it now consists of two photos with a total size of about 1.4 MB. Photo #1 includes what appears to be a dry lake bed with an artificial dam, and several smaller catch basins with the same type dam constructed to catch runoff from an area of deep ravines. The previous sent photos of the Square Building and other structures at coordinates 42S-158W is about 300 miles from this Lake scene at coordinates 39S -166W. If both photos had the same resolution, then it may be that the main Lake Dam may be several hundred of feet in length with a height of perhaps 40 feet. http://space.com/scienceastronomy/mars_earth_040311.html



Editors Note - To send high resolution photos by email is difficult or even to put them in full resolution on my web site is very expensive. However, these photos infer intelligent life on Mars has been building dams and attempting to preserve and transport water.



Living "Blueberries"



Dr. Annamarie Johnestone writes, “Conclusions from an experiment on the Mars Viking Landau Mission, as well as additional experiments in similar earth environments since1976, offer proof that "blueberries" photographed by Mars Opportunity Rover are lichens (a fungal sheath enveloping cyanobacteria or primitive algae). In Antarctica, endolithic (living in rock) bacteria, algae, lichens and fungi have been found alive inside of rock surfaces, to a depth of 1.5 cm. Like organisms have been photographed by the Opportunity Rover, in particular, "Blueberries" (lichens), in and on the Mars rocks. Lichens are known to photosynthesize and grow in water vapor, as a sole source of water. Using infra red instruments, Anderson and Tice (1979) describe a hydrosphere at the Viking Lander site that they believe could support endolithic growth. Water vapor measured 50 precipitable microns at the surface of Mars. As well, lichens have all the characteristics necessary to live in the harsh Martian environment above the rock surface. In extreme temperatures of hot or cold, with only absorbed water vapor, lichens can withstand desiccation from wind and ultra violet radiation. Color photos from Viking Lander, displaying yellow and green patches that change color patterns with time, were observed to be similar to lichens on rocks, according to Levin and Straat (1988). e photos were computer analyzed for verification.



In my opinion, it is very unlikely, that inorganic substances would display like cyclic change. A changing pattern indicates living organisms. I observed that "blueberries" present in many Mars Rover photos were elevated above the rock surfaces. Some lichen species attach to rocks with a tube-like structure that absorbs and transports inorganic nutrients from the rock to the lichen's interior, algal-like, microbe component. Fungal acid excreted through the tube disintegrates the rock to facilitate the absorption process. Elevation of the exposed "blueberries" indicates an organic structure rather than an inorganic substance. Meteorites from Mars, analyzed by JPL and NASA, contained organic compounds (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) and fossilized primitive cells, according to Hartsfield and Salsbury (1996). Organic compounds are products of oxygen photosynthesizing bacteria and plants. Regrettably, the Mars Rover is not equipt to analyze organic substances. On earth, lichens are an indicator of clean air, as they flourish in an unpolluted atmosphere and diminish or disappear in polluted industrial areas. If there is a significant, living population of lichens on Mars, as displayed in large changing color patches, it would indicate that the atmosphere on Mars is not polluted.



Observing the sky with the green filter of its panoramic camera, the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit came across a surprise: a streak across the sky. The streak, seen in the middle of this mosaic of images taken by the navigation and panoramic cameras, was probably the brightest object in the sky at the time. Scientists theorize that the mystery line could be either a meteorite or one of seven out-of-commission spacecraft still orbiting Mars. Because the object appeared to move 4 degrees of an arc in 15 seconds it is probably not the Russian probes Mars 2, Mars 3, Mars 5, or Phobos 2; or the American probes Mariner 9 or Viking 1. That leaves Viking 2, which has a polar orbit that would fit with the north-south orientation of the streak. In addition, only Viking 1 and 2 were left in orbits that could produce motion as fast as that seen by Spirit. Said Mark Lemmon, a rover team member from Texas A&M University, Texas, "Is this the first image of a meteor on Mars, or an image of a spacecraft sent from another world during the dawn of our robotic space exploration program? We may never know, but we are still looking for clues." picture http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/press/spirit/20040311a/12-ml-03-strea k-A067R1.jpg




Object appears to change shape at bottom right time image. This does not seem to be caused by camera angle. Thanks to Norman Breyden




ROVER FINDS EVIDENCE OF WATER


"One of NASA's robotic rovers has found evidence that parts of Mars was once soaked with enough water to sustain life", scientists said Tuesday, March 2, 2004. "'Opportunity has landed in an area of Mars where water once drenched the surface," said Ed Weiler, a NASA space science administrator.



Meteorite Yields Evidence Bacteria On Mars-



News Release NASA: 96-160, August 1996 James Hartfield (Johnson Space Center) David Salsbury (Stanford University) Excerpt:: The NASA-funded team found the first organic molecules thought to be of Martian origin: several mineral features characteristic of biologic activity; and possible microscopic fossils of primitive, bacteria-like organisms, inside of a Mars rock that fell to earth as a meteorite. The journal Science, reports the compounds they elicited from the meteorites found in Antarctica, were directly associated with fossil-like structures and carbonate globules in the rocks.



Life Once Existed On Mars



Journal of Microscopy claims Australian scientists believe they have found evidence that life once existed on Mars. They have found that microscopic fossils of primitive bacteria-like organisms in a Mars meteorite match characteristics of bacteria found in mud in Queensland. Dr. Taylor says he has found enough evidence of life on Mars to warrant a manned mission to the red planet, and that more samples must be collected from Mars for further investigation.. http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/s1033640.htm


Rover Takes Images of UFO's



Robert Roy Britt reports that on March 11, 2004, the Spirit rover took the first picture of Earth ever made from the surface of another planet. It, also, spotted what could be a Viking Orbiter spacecraft or a meteor -- scientists aren't sure which. The photo of Earth shows the planet as a bright dot above the horizon. Another sky photo from Spirit shows a thin and short streak of light. "That streak could have been a meteor," Lemmon said. Or it could have been the Viking Orbiter 2, still circling Mars long after its 1970s mission ended. Lemmon said the other nine spacecraft currently orbiting Mars -- three of which are presently in working order -- have known positions and did not create the streak.





Editor’s Note: It could, also, have been one of the UFOs that are periodically imaged by Mars satellites.



New Jersey – Elongated Disc UFO



Morestown – Frankie V reports seeing a UFO for over twenty minutes near Route 295 a few miles east of Philadelphia on March 11, 2004. Several aircraft were also seen passing over the UFO that was hovering or moving very slowly as it flew around the area. The craft was a metallic gray color that would change to red and return to gray. The red color may have been caused by the sun reflecting off its surface in the bright sunny sky at 3:40 PM. Frankie V has his radio show and had never seen a UFO before. The craft hovered and then climbed almost straight up to an estimated 35, 0000 feet. It just stayed in this position looking like a bright star in the sunny sky. Thanks Frankie V at www.frankievradioshow.com



Tennessee – Family Sees Flying Saucers



KINGSPORT -- At 5:30 PM, on February 29, 2004, several children saw flying saucers in the sky and pointed them out to five credible adult witnesses. The objects were of various shapes and color and rising vertically and interacting with each other. The objects were described as being four small "lights" which were moving to form various geometric patterns around a large, highly visible golden colored disc. Some of the smaller objects would actually circle and touch the large disc, then move away. One adult witness has taken several pictures with a cheap digital camera but none were helpful for analysis by Jeff Sainio. These objects finally ascended in the blue sky until they were no longer visible.



The adult witnesses shocked, kept watching the sky, then two cylinder shaped objects crossed the sky at a very high speed. These were described as white, rectangular and at a very high altitude. The witnesses were told by the FAA office to notify me and I was contacted on March 1st by two witnesses at which time I was given the photographs. I sent these to Jeff Sainio, who let me know that due to the digital format, the pictures were useless for analysis. . Thanks to: Kim Shaffer Asst State Director, MUFON TN.



Missouri -Orange Spheres



ANNAPOLIS – Two brothers were driving on Champion Springs Ranch road on the evening of February 10, 2004, at around 7 PM, near Black River when they saw five very brightly shining orange sphere's in the sky. At first they shot around like the balls that shoot out of Roman candle fireworks. They then began to fly in V formation like a flock of geese. This was in a wooded area and at times the light from the spheres would shine across the tops of the tree's. After the spheres vanished, I saw several blinking lights in the sky that looked like airplanes. Then, we heard very loud booms in the sky, like a sonic boom. I later spoke to the owner of the ranch who told us she saw the spheres as well and that she had seen them on other occasions. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Iowa - Flying Saucer and Red Marks

SIOUX CITY – A group of friends were camping and went walking by the creek on February 27, 2004, at 5:30 PM, and saw a red flash of light to the west. They started walking towards it. I looked at my watch and it read 3:11 AM. Then, there was another red flash of light, and my watch then read 3:31. We were a little freaked out, so we went back to the tent, where we saw that one of my friends had several red dots on his back that looked almost like mosquitoes bites. We, then, discovered that we all had several of these "dots". That night I had a strange dream about being brought on a saucer shaped ship. The next morning, all my friends had had the same exact dream. ((NUFORC Note: Witness asserts that he has photos of the wounds. Witness describes self as a journalist. PD))



California – Hovering Object Over Disneyland



ANAHEIM -- On March 1, 2004, two witnesses noticed a black roundish object that was hovering above the Disneyland hotel at 10:50 AM. There were no lights or sounds from the object and there were no surface features noticeable, and it was an overcast day and the object appeared high and not very large. At first we thought in might be a Mickey Mouse balloon because it seemed to change shape slightly as it floated. After about a minute it started floating to the south very slowly but it didn’t quite behave like a balloon. It’s movements were a strange kind of slow bobbing and it was moving in the opposite direction of the wind. After five minutes of this, the object changed from a round shape to strait as an arrow and shot off to the east at a very high speed. It was out of sight in a couple of seconds. It still made no sound as it moved away fast. Thanks to Peter Davenport



Washington – Entity Pulls Man From Trailer



EATONVILLE --On December 26, 2003, just before midnight. D.H. age 41 was awakened in his travel trailer and clearly saw a red orb three inches in diameter floating around. The baseball size red ball had a two inch red mist around it, so its total diameter was about five inches. Although the red light was ‘hazy’ it lit up the entire interior compartment of the trailer. "It was an extremely bright light hovering in the same spot," he said. He leaned up on his right elbow very slowly and the light moved about a half an inch further inside the trailer and then bolted out the door. D. H. was unaware until that moment that the trailer door was open. He always closes and locks that door. The door slammed behind the light. He awoke that morning with a good sized bump on the back on his head. Yet, he felt better than he had in months.



The door trim on the floor had a one-and-a-half inch outward dent in it. The next night he closed his eyes for a minute and had a flashback of someone pulling him by his ankles out of his bed. All of the covers had been removed from his body and he was terrified as he was being dragged feet-first by two hands from his bed and through the trailer door. The dent was probably caused by his head striking the trim. "Later he remembered a large dark gray face about two feet away with thin arms, he saw no ears, mouth, hair or nose. Joe Ryan (co-investigator) and I have both interviewed D.H. He does not drink, use drugs, and has no history of mental illness. He is very frightened and does not even want to discuss the case.

Hawaii - Distant Moving Star

KEAAU – The witness got his coffee at 5:30 PM, and looked at a star filled sky on February 27, 2004, and sat down to enjoy the beauty or the stars, and noticed one was moving. It flew east and was a medium size star, but it just kept moving and I had to get up and go to the other side of house to follow it. There was no sound, and it seemed to be very high up in the atmosphere. Although it seemed to slow down a times, its path seemed to be fairly straight in the late afternoon sky.

Canada – Bright Ring of Red Lights



DECKER LAKE - On March 12, 2004, a very unusual object was seen in the night sky for ten minutes before it moved away at10:30 PM. The object seen was extremely bright white with a ring of red lights around the middle. Investigator Brian Vike HBCC called the local airport and no known aircraft was flying. Witnesses watched a large object skimming over the water on Francois Lake that was silent and glowing. Other strange white objects were making fantastic maneuvers dropping down behind the mountains in the Grassy Plains area where there have been cattle mutations. Also, strange creatures are being reported from our native people. Canadian Search and Rescue Buffalo aircraft have been flying late at night over Francois Lake. Some of these witnesses made enquiries as to why the aircraft were there, but the crews would not reveal why they were flying in the area. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director CANADA HBCC Research



UK/Scotland - Disk Seen for Several Nights

PAISLEY -- A graphic communication student at Napier University in Edinburgh states that on the night of February 23, 2004, he noticed an unusual set of hovering lights high in the sky. His brother (12) confirmed the sighting. The object consisted of a flickering bright white light that spanned the breadth of the object, with blue and red flashing lights. The next night at 10:20 PM, the same light pattern was seen again. There was no directional movement but the object was bigger than before, indicating it was a bit nearer this time. On Wednesday, I was working at the Burger King, and again saw a similar formation of lights much clearer than before, but there was no significant motion. My two workers looked and both agreed there was the white light spanning the breadth with red and blue flashing lights, but immediately dismissed it as a plane. Ten minutes later it was still there and they said "Ha-ha do you think it’s a UFO? Later that night when I got home Mom and another brother (18) came to look. We all looked through a monocular and the UFO had a saucer shape with a white light round the rim, red and some blue flashing lights. This night it was in a different part of the sky. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



England - Diamond Hovers

BLACKBURN --The object was cigar shaped flying in the very pale blue sky on February 23, 2004, at 1:45 PM. Sometimes the object would look black next to the brightness of the sky and as it flew it appeared metallic. The object was silent and didn't appear to be moving from side to side but moved very slowly in a circular way as if pivoted in the middle. It's hard to explain really, because of the strange shape, sometimes it would appear like a rod but as it moved around you could only see one end of the rod, so then it would appear small and circular. It wasn't actually changing shape but it seemed that way due to the smooth movements it was making. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Sweden – Fast Moving Lights



KISTA -- On February 11, 2004, two girls who are 17 and 18 years old students saw five strong bright lights at around 10 PM, the colors were yellow, blue and red. The shape was different from craft to craft although most were round. They suddenly appeared and just stopped for two seconds and then started climbing higher in the sky ten times faster than any aircraft. At first, there were five and then they became 18 heading up. ((NUFORC Note: Report appears to have been submitted from Sweden. PD)) UFOcenter



New Zealand - Nine Orange lights Head Out To Sea

MATAURI BAY - My wife and I were walking along the beach on February 21, 2004, at 9 PM, when we saw an orange light appear from behind a hill near Kerikeri. The light was circular and moving quite quickly. It was not an aircraft as it had no navigation lights, beacon or strobe light. After thirty seconds another orange light appeared. Then more appeared as we counted nine lights flying from beyond the hill at regular intervals and headed northwest out to sea. The lights stayed the same orange color while we watched them. Eventually, we could see all nine outlined against the stars as they eventually disappeared. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

SETI Institute Uses Carrot-on-stick of Finding ET



Air Chief Marshal Lord Dowding, Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Air Force Fighter Command during the Battle of Britain,

“More than 10,000 sightings have been reported, the majority of which cannot be accounted for by any "scientific" explanation... I am convinced that these objects do exist and that they are not manufactured by any nation on Earth. I can therefore see no alternative to accepting the theory that they come from some extraterrestrial source.” Printed in Sunday Dispatch, London, July 11, 1954.



Mars UFO Streaks By



Observing the sky with the green filter of its panoramic camera, the Mars Exploration Rover Spirit came across a surprise: a streak across the sky. The streak, seen in the middle of this mosaic of images taken by the navigation and panoramic cameras, was probably the brightest object in the sky at the time. Only Viking 2, has a polar orbit that would fit with the north-south orientation of the streak. Said Mark Lemmon, a rover team member from Texas A&M University, Texas, "Is this the first image of a meteor on Mars, or an image of a spacecraft sent from another world during the dawn of our robotic space exploration program? We may never know, but we are still looking for clues."

Mars - Salty Sea 'Excellent' Site to Search for Life


JPL/NASA has announced that a salty sea once washed over the plains of Mars at the Opportunity rover's landing site, creating a life-friendly environment more earthlike than any known on another world. Opportunity has found evidence for the shores of a large body of surface water which left their marks in rocks that developed at the bottom of the sea. Opportunity found a distinct chemical makeup in the rocks and unique layering patterns that must have been generated by slow-moving water in an evaporating sea, researchers said.

JPL is slow to make announcements but Filer Research Institute and its supporters are finding strong indications for a history of life on Mars. In recent days, the images coming from the Rovers is extremely limited to mostly uninteresting views. Frankly, there seems to be an effort to not make all information available because we are finding evidence of an ecosystem on Mars. It is quite likely living microbes are visible at this time. Direct sunlight is available as an energy source. Some Opportunity images indicate the fossil remains of various crinoids, and small sea animals. Temperatures even now on Mars are not more severe than Antarctica where life now exists. The apparent fact that Mars once had a warm sea, indicates fish and sea animals once existed on Mars in a warm climate. This gives credence to the finding of symbols and letters on Martian rocks indicating relatively intelligent humanoids.



Mars Rock on a Rock Near Face?



In examining the Rover images, there is often evidence of an ecosystem, symbols and letters. The Spirit image shows a rock laying on top of a rock on Mars. Analysis and color indicates these are different separate rocks.


How likely during an explosive blast from an asteroid would a
rock land on another rock? To the right of the rock is an apparent
face laying in the sand? On its left sideof the double rock is a
white symbol 'P." To the left is a rock chisel like tool, that could
have made the symbol.

JPL images divided the rock in half. The two large rocks
are the same rock with different views. see
http://origin.mars5.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all/spirit_p040.html
These anomalies are difficult to explain unless alien intelligence was present to move the rock, and make carvings. What do you think?


Connecticut - Two Bright Objects Streak

WILLINGTON – The witness saw two circular objects streak across the sky at 7 PM on March 15, 2004. He says, “I don't know if I saw a craft, but they were larger and brighter than shooting stars and they moved across the sky together and then one seemed to disappear while the other continued on straight across the sky until I could no longer see it through the trees. The two objects were a bright, white, yellow in color. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



New York – UFO Photographed plus Flying Triangle



WANTAGH – The photographer had been taking picture of the sunset. When developing the pictures, he saw a white sphere in the background & enlarged it showing what appears to be a UFO at 5 PM on March 14, 2004. The white color was shaped like a sphere but had something white spilling from underneath in the center dropping like a tear drop. The sun was already setting well below the object leaving it against a dark blue backdrop. UFOcenter



LAKE GROVE – The observer went out to bring his SUV into the garage and saw a flying dark triangular shaped object in the western sky at 6:23 PM on March 16, 2004. He states, ‘It moved like no man made object I have ever seen with blue lights at the corners, and it was spinning in a circular motion.” Then it flew north and just hovered there for a few minutes, then it just took off like a flash disappearing from sight not to return again. I was speechless! Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Delaware -Two Very Fast Lights

NEW CASTLE -- Two round white lights were seen moving very fast horizontally across the sky at 7:30 PM on March 15, 2004. All of a sudden one just disappeared and the other shot off in a 90 degree angle and accelerated very quickly and disappeared. A similar report from Rhode Island for the same time and date. PD)) UFOcenter



Virginia – UFO Videotaped

WILLIAMSBURG – Two witnesses were able to video an object that was changing color, shape, and size. There were many lights around the spaceship looking object with one larger brighter light in the center. It hovered for at least two hours, but moved slowly. At times it would move quickly and seem to camouflage itself by getting much larger. This siting occured on March 12, 2004, for two hours and thirty minutes. It spun and changed colors. One of the observers is employed by a security department and twenty years service and I feel very trustworthy. I feel myself to be a very honest person. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Georgia - Silver Cigar


MARIETTA – On March 10, 2004 a couple was driving north on Johnson Ferry Road at about 2:20 PM, and looked east out the window into the clear blue sky and due east was a silver airplane with no wings. The sky around it shimmered in kind of a circular pattern. It didn't seem to be moving at all, and there was no sound. After watching a couple of minutes, I wondered why I couldn't see the wings. I'm slightly nearsighted (20/40) so I put on my glasses to see it better. It looked the same - still no wings. I watched about another 30 seconds or so; then it disappeared as I watched. It didn't get smaller like it was going away, nor did it go behind a cloud. It just kind of clicked off. I told my husband that I think I just saw a UFO. We got home about five minutes later and heard jets overhead. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



South Carolina - Formation Races Across Sky

MOUNT PLEASANT -- Three amber objects in a "V" formation, one slightly out of formation, approached from the southwest at midnight on March 17, 2004, with a cloud ceiling at 10,000 feet. I saw them at about 30 degrees above the horizon. They were above the ceiling for at times and one would disappear behind a cloud. They raced overhead to the northeast where I lost sight at about 25 degrees above the neighbor’s trees. They covered what I would estimate 120 degrees of visible sky in about 6 seconds. Not a sound was heard. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Florida - 0range Sphere and Bouncing Balls



ST. PETERSBURG -- Mary Margaret Zimmer, MUFON State Section Director is investigating a report, that at about 11 PM, on March 14, 2004, the witness went out on her third floor balcony and noticed a somewhat hazy night sky. She saw a sudden fuzzy light about the size of a basketball that appeared above the tree tops and seemed to be bouncing ping pong fashion in a straight line from the south towards the north and was quickly followed by two more similar lights that also flew in this bouncing manner. She followed the three lights until they could no longer be seen because a nearby building blocked her view. She ran to another window but they had disappeared. Thanks to Mary Margaret Zimmer, MUFON SSD FL, ASD


WINTER SPRINGS/OVIEDO – The witness saw a round orange sphere that looked like a meteor moving into the atmosphere at a very low speed, without a tail. The sphere moved very slow and made a U shaped turn after which it faded away slowly in over ten seconds. The object completely disappeared at 12:45 AM, on March 12, 2004. It blinked bright orange one more time then vanished, but fifteen seconds later it reappeared but looked dim like a star. Then, it was no longer orange colored but, we knew it wasn't a star because it was moving until it disappeared past the roof of an adjacent apartment building. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Mississippi – Flying Triangle



MERIDIAN -- Chris Shelton a teacher writes, “The last encounter was on Thursday, February 19, 2004, when I was heading home to Toomsuba. I live on a country road called Smith Spur. I was coming to the end of Will Garret Rd., when I noticed up in the sky there was this mysterious triangular shaped vessel hovering at tree top level. I pulled over on the side of the road and watched for five minutes as the vessel just sat there taking no notice as I watched through the windshield of my car. It was a solid black flying triangle and it stood out against the bright night sky with three white lights underneath near each point. In the center of this triangle of lights was a red flashing light. The vessel was hovering over a small pond at 6:45 PM. I didn’t think much else of it, so I started the car and left as I wanted to get home. Thanks to Chris Shelton



Ohio - Silver Metallic Cigar and Flying Triangle

LYNDHURST -- In bright sunlight, driving north on Brainard road, just before Mayfield on February 11, 2004, at 8:22 AM., I noticed a long, silver object to left center, about 50 degrees above horizon. I stopped at the traffic light and saw the object had no wings or tail assembly. It was 1/2 inch in length at arm’s length. It had high reflectivity with one dark spot midway on the body. The object kept a constant side on view, rapidly receded away to the north in less than 5 seconds and disappeared. It did not bank and turn, there was no vapor trail, and I heard no sound.

Fostoria UFO video taped on February 28, 2004, by George Ritter. Note ice on pond eliminating possibility of insects. Similar to photo taken over Mars by Rover.



FOSTORIA – The witness was talking to his brother on the phone and as he walked outside at 6:23 PM, he saw a triangle shaped object flying slowly over his house on March 16, 2004. It flew only as high as the tree tops and had pale yellow lights at each triangle tip and a red light in the middle of the craft. All lights were underneath the craft and it made absolutely no sound and left no trail of any kind. It flew from the southeast to the northwest over the city. I live on the east side of the city. I watched it as far as I could see it. I was describing the whole event to my brother on the phone. What could this have been? I have never seen anything like it. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Louisiana - Seven Spheres Become a Triangle



NEW ORLEANS -- At approximately 9:15 PM on March 16, 2004, the witness was walking his dog in River Ridge, a suburb of New Orleans and glanced up to see a group of grayish white spheres traveling through the sky. They were silent, and fast as the whole event took less than ten seconds. He watched them fly overhead, and just as they did, the line broke formation and formed a triangle with one sphere in the middle. I noticed as they moved they sort of fluttered, not much though, as if they were being knocked by slight currents in the air. They appeared small to me, and I probably wouldn't have noticed them had there not been so many of them. I will admit that I have never believed in these sorts of things. I am not a sci-fi fan or anything like that. I am still skeptical of what I saw, but I will certainly never forget it. One more fact to add to my skepticism, I live within 10 miles of the New Orleans International Airport. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Colorado - Strange Oval

DENVER -- On Tuesday, March 9th, and at 4:15 PM in the vicinity of 32nd and Federal the witness was walking his dog and almost directly overhead spotted a round gray object moving to the northeast at a fairly high speed. The object was the size of a BB at arm’s length. To the northeast there were five similar objects that were silent and flying in a loose formation at less than 5,000 feet.



The pilot of a light plane flying south might have seen these craft if he were looking up. I believe the objects were At 4:45 PM, I spotted a black cylindrical object with a white tail below it hanging motionless about 30 degrees in the sky. Looking at it through my binoculars it appeared like a cluster of orange balloons with red lights on them. The white tail appeared rigid. I watched for about five minutes as the object began to rise higher in the sky. I am a MUFON member and watch the sky quite a bit. The 6 objects I saw did not appear any different than ones I have seen in UFO films and videos shot worldwide over the years. Witness is MUFON member in Colorado. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



New Mexico - Chevron UFO


ALBUQUERQUE – There was a sighting at 8:08 PM on March 16, 2004, in what appeared to be a chevron shaped formation of eight diamond lights flying overhead. The size was that of three Airbus 300 aircraft flying in tight formation, and not a sound was herd. I would gage the speed of the craft at or clots to 300knts. Altitude around 800/1000 feet. I could clearly see the diamond shaped lights and could make out the reflective shape of what I would call the leading edge. The fly by lasted only 25 seconds no course changes were seen. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



California - Lights Hovering, Flying Triangle and Disc

VALENCIA – The observer spotted an unusual hovering object in the distance at 10 PM on March 14, 2004. The shape was somewhat difficult to see, as it was far away, and high, in a dark sky. However, three lights, in a horizontal row, each light seemingly was multicolored with white, pink, and green. It stayed in the same position until I went to bed and could have been a possible blimp? The husband is an astrogeophysicist and said that it was the closest thing he's ever seen to a UFO.


LOS ANGELES – The witness saw a flying triangle with unfamiliar red, green, and blue light patterns. The object had an abnormal flight path at 8 PM on March 8, 2004 and flew low, then high over the area. The lights changed from white to colored lights. We’ve been seeing this thing for a couple of weeks. It was very strange and didn’t look like a police helicopter because it flew too high for that.



R. David Anderson writes, “I have been seeing these UFO's while working on a sunroom addition on our house.” I noticed one twice last week while I was working and on March 22, 2004. I finished up around 4 PM, and rested with my new 4.3 digital camera nearby. After about 35 minutes, I saw the UFO to the north flying at about 30 mph and was probably about at least 250 feet high. It's direction of travel was toward the Southeast. I picked up the camera and began to take pictures, following it's movement as it went from the northern sky to the eastern sky in about 45 seconds. It went behind a large tree. When it came back into my view it had climbed much higher and began to dim as it moved farther away. R. David Anderson. My seven year old daughter also saw this UFO. Thanks to R. David Anderson



Washington - Fishing Vessels Observe Disc


NEAH BAY -- Four fishing vessels 50 to 60 miles off the west coast of Neah Bay watched a disc for half an hour. What appeared to be a discus shaped large object with very bright lights was seen at 6:23 PM on March 16, 2004. The object had mostly white lights, but there were also red and green lights that seemed to be mimicking the vessels running lights for navigational purposes. The object would move at extreme rates of speed back and forth in a horizontal direction. Then, occasionally at a high rate of speed it flew straight up into the sky. The object seemed to hover above one of the vessels in particular and then flew straight up into the sky and was gone. I was told this by several of the eye witnesses.



SEATTLE -- The observer was driving south on I-5 and noticed a jet flying east across the sky when another jet appeared without wings at 1 PM on March 8, 2004. As I watched it more, there was no jet, and the trail wasn't getting any longer. It was completely horizontal and fairly high in the sky, and as I looked at it more over a period of about a minute, I swear it looked like a perfect row of small windows going down the length of it. It also seemed to have a perfect, long, cylindrical shape, with the windows going down the middle. I could tell it was cylindrical because the top and bottom kind of faded as if there was some roundness to the object. I couldn't tell how high it was in the sky, but the object looked enormous. After about two minutes of watching, the object performed a four second fade out from being completely visible to disappearing completely. I've never witnessed the trail of a jet disappear that quick after being visible for that long. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Canada – Fire Ball



ONION LAKE, SASKATCHEWAN - On the evening of March 21, 2004 at about 8:00 or 8:30 as I was sitting in my car, I saw what looked like a comet as it appeared within seconds at first it looked blue and then turned to a yellow orangey color and then it disappeared. It came from the east . I am in Onion Lake Saskatchewan located 30 minutes south of Lloydminster. HBBC UFO Research would like to point out that what the witness saw was a Fireball. Many folks saw the same object that evening. Thanks to Brian Vike, Director 250 845 2189 email: hbccufo@telus.net

Peru - Testimony of a Close Encounter



LIMA -- Ricardo Gonzalez writes, The Air Forces of several countries like Chile, Uruguay and Perú have created specialized UFO military research departments. In Perú, the former hub of the Inca Empire, close encounters have been recorded on numerous occasions. The question is: Why are they observing us? I was 14 in 1988, when I saw a luminous object shaped like a drop of water that moved silently west towards the Pacific Ocean. The press and TV carried it and I became more interested. I was sure these had a direct connection with extraterrestrial intelligences. I did possess that unexplainable certainty but had to wait for another five years to confirm these sensations. In October 1993, I was enrolled in marketing and administration courses at the Instituto Peruano de Marketing, and closing my eyes and settled myself in the chair when a strange voice in my head said, “Don’t stop seeking, we are extraterrestrial beings and are coming in contact with you,”. “You will undergo a preparation that will lead you to get to know us physically.” At that point I said: “I need proof to know that this is true.” And the “voice” responded by suggesting: “Go up to the roof and there you will see us…”My younger brother Pepe came up with me and shouted.



“A UFO! A UFO! That light is moving!” And, indeed, a concentrated or solid point of red light appeared that was shaped like a boomerang. For some instants it remained above us. Then, it returned traveling east towards the Andes mountains. Upon listening to my brother’s screams, my parents and sister Mariella, also came up to observe it slowly leave in a silent manner. In that moment I “heard” the voice telling me something like: “We come with good intentions. Just as we have proceeded today with you, we have done so with others and we’ll continue doing so in the future so that you can (collectively) gradually become aware of our presence. You will not only be in contact with us. You will also be in contact with other beings that are waiting for you.” I wondered what they were trying to tell me with this. Then, there was silence and the UFO was gone. This was the beginning of the contact and as the years went by I was able to understand. Everything would be different after this unique experience. To be continued. Translated by Giorgio Piacenza



England - Brilliant Trident Light and Diamond


EAST LONDON -- This trident shaped light hung in the West-North-West sky which we, my wife and 2 children, at 6:23 PM on March 16, 2004, observed returning home from Heathrow, a distance of 25 miles. No stars where visible at the time, although the moon was full in the East. I have observed an object exactly the same in appearance last year in the morning sky which was seen by a dozen other people waiting on the train platform with me.



NOTTINGHAM - On February 25, 2004, at 11:20 PM, the witness was having a cigarette and noticed a very bright light that looked like a diamond shape with the bright light at the front, at the top was a green light but that was not flashing. Then, at the bottom there was an orange light, which was also not flashing. The back light was flashing that was white but not as bright as the front light. The lights on it must have been bright because I saw the wings of the craft outlined by the light. The wings were a very sharp triangle with a haze around it. The movements were just too fast to have been any of our aircraft. It must have seen something I wasn’t supposed to have seen.

BLACKPOOL -- I got off a bus and saw a gold object moving across the sky on February 29, 2004, at 4 PM, with no lights or wings. The object was cartwheeling slowly across sky. (Rolling across sky looked kind of like this! --> 8 0 8 0 8 0, first two balloon shapes but as it spun you saw one balloon shape then two...) It went slowly across the sky. I was near home, so I wanted to get witnesses, but as I ran stuff fell out of my bag in the street, and I lost sight of the object. It made no sound and left no trails. I took photos with my rubbish camera, but only one picture revealed the object. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

United Arab Emirates – Diamond UFO

DUBAI – The observer spotted a clear diamond shape thing with blue and orange light that came close to landing, but did not land at 2 AM, on March 16, 2004. The light was true and real bright blue orange light, then the shape of the ship started to appear like a diamond. It started to close down to the face of the earth, and suddenly disappeared away like lightning.



Australia - UFO Hovers

PERTH – A disc shaped object flew from a nearby hill then overhead in a ‘V’ formation. It hovered for about three minutes, then flew over our heads in a suburban area in daylight at 12:24 PM on March 14, 2004. It flew at aslow pace then sped off extremely fast.

SETI Institute Uses Carrot-on-stick of Finding ET


BOSTON -- Author, publisher and UFO/ET reality proponent, Claude DiDomenica of claudescommentary.com, submitted an open letter to Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft. The letter was prompted by a March 21, 2004 article in The Sydney Morning Herald in which the Paul G. Allen Foundations donated $13.5 million to the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Institute towards construction of the Allen Telescope Array or ATA. This brings Mr. Allen's total donations to SETI to a whopping $25 million for this project. So, what is the big concern about funding for a radio telescope? DiDomenica explains. "I'm concerned that the SETI Institute is using the carrot-on-stick scenario of finding radio signals from extraterrestrial civilizations. "At the sametime, SETI maintains that '...the lack of credible physical evidence has made it difficult for serious scientists to believe that UFOs have anything to do with extraterrestrial visitors.'" DiDomenica disputes this statement as absurd and untrue. In fact, he has compiled a list of credentialed UFO/ET reality proponents. These scientists include such people as: * Dr. Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14 astronaut * Dr. Bruce Maccabee, physicist * Dr. Brian O'Leary, former NASA scientist-astronaut * Stanton Friedman, BSc and MSc degrees in physics * Dr. Leo Sprinkle, psychologist * Dr. John Mack, Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard University * Dr. Bruce Coronet, evolutionary biologist * Dr. Brian Crissey, computer scientist.



"The DiDomenica Equation" disputes Frank Drake of SETI, who promotes the belief that the best chance for making contact with extra-solar intelligent beings is via radio telescopes. "The DiDomenica Equation," DiDomenica quotes a March 1, 2004 Wisconsin Technology Network article that states: "According to Drake, it is possible to send a 60-second telegram at the speed of light to the far side of the galaxy for only a dollar's worth of energy." DiDomenica points out by rough calculation "Drake's telegram will take 75,000 years to reach its intended recipient. Therefore, it would take 150,000 years round trip to get a reply!" He finds it absurd that some scientists still cling to the notion that the vastness of space prohibits interstellar travel, thus making radio signals the best way of finding ET life in the cosmos. DiDomenica points out, "It is obvious the ET beings visiting us circumvent the too long a time it would take light-speed barrier, in traveling here." DiDomenica has come up with The DiDomenica Equation, which goes as follows: 'Institutionalized absurdity by credentialed scientists does not equal truth.'The reality is that not only do ET beings exist, but they are here visiting Earth NOW.” claudescommentary@yahoo.com http://claudescommentary.com/media

Mars Faces Indicate Life

Spirit Rover Reaches Mars Bonneville Crater



The crater is about 200 meters across and 20 meters deep and appears to contain the remnants of an ancient temple or structure. Here is the statue waiting for us at its rim.


Thanks to JPL. Note square corners, apparent writing on
head dress. Two faces with nose, mouth and eyes.


Carl Sagan stated, “Craters have shapes. Some are perfectly bowl-shaped; others are flat, shallow, gently sloped. The shape of the crater does not much depend on the velocity of the impacting object, provided it hits the ground hard enough the result is the same as detonating a large explosion at the point of impact. The crater shape does depend on how soft the surface is, and on fragility of the infalling material.” Page 262. Comet by Carl Sagan.



I speculate that an ancient structure or temple was hit by the exploding object such as asteroid. You can compare the ejecta from this explosion with all other rover missions, and Spirit is taking images of see carved rocks with symbols, faces, curved and smooth unnatural features. While in the Air Force, one of my jobs was to access the effectiveness of bombing in Vietnam. We had a similar situation where structures were destroyed by large explosions. Essentially, we are looking at rubble from this explosion at Bonneville, the nickname infers a pleasant place, before it was destroyed.



Statues, major buildings and the like would have been thrown into the air for hundreds of meters leaving little to identify. I asked my 5th grade grand-daughter to take some photos to class. The student scientists reported seeing E,Y,G symbols and several faces. Parts of statues, busts and columns are identifiable in my opinion.



Observation is the key to discovery in science. Certain shapes such as triangles do not occur in planetary surface geology. Yet we are collecting many examples of triangles and pyramids. Many civilizations erect statues to their leaders and gods. We know that nature can make various symbols and faces by accident but seldom do you see more than one or two in a whole quarry. Consequently, one face or one letter is not proof, but if dozens of faces and symbols are found, we can declare that life once existed at the place we have nicknamed “Gavesak.



JPL informs me that the best cameras on the Rover have a resolution of 1024 x 1024 pixel images. There isn't any excuse for using a 1 megapixel sensor when 3 megapixel cameras were available at Walmart for a few hundred dollars. Right now there are 5 and 6 megapixel point and shoot cameras there. NASA technology is touted to be decades AHEAD of the consumer market, but in photo imaging it is decades BEHIND. They even shoot in color.


This European Space Agency Image sent by Bob Bryant shows a
temple like structure with an underground entrance. Structure at top
left is similar to Mayan Pyramid at Uxmal,


In my opinion Mars has life today. The evidence sent back from Mars by two Viking Landers in 1976 and 1977 was not clearcut. In fact, NASA's first press release about the Viking tests announced that the results were positive. The "Labelled Release" (LR) experiments had given positive results. Later NASA reversed its position. I spoke with Dr. Levin last week who insists his Mar's life experiments proved there is life on Mars.

When the same two experiments were run on soil from Antarctica, the same conflicting results were obtained (LR - positive; organics - negative.) Soil from Antarctica definitely contains life. The test for organics was negative because it is far less sensitive than the LR experiment. The same problem could have caused the organics test on Mars to give a false negative. Rick Berry has located this astounding image of multiple faces. Flying over the faces can be seen from either direction.




Arthur C. Clarke said, "It is really quite amazing by what margins competent but conservative scientists and engineers can miss the mark, when they start with a preconceived idea, what they are investigating is impossible. When this happens, the most well-informed men become blinded by their prejudices and are unable to see what lies directly ahead of them."



Asteroid Misses Earth by only 25,000 Miles



Mitch Battros (ECTV) writes, " I know this is hard to believe, but it is true. Just hours ago, a new razor close asteroid zoomed by Earth. It is known as ‘2004 FY15’. I am researching like mad trying to find ‘who’ found this rock, and ‘when’. I will be reporting on this breaking news event as information becomes available. Asteroid 2004 FY15 occurred early on March 27th. It was discovered by the Catalina Sky Survey (CSS) in Arizona and confirmed early by Robert Hutsebaut of Brussels, Belgium. The object is 25 meters (75 feet) across. Distance was a mere 23,786 kilometers (14,780 miles). This is the 12,000 miles “closer” than last weeks Asteroid 2004 FH “record close flyby”. Folks, I realize most of you may not be able to grasp just how close and dangerous this asteroid is. It is history making. Thanks to Earth Changes TV







Methane Gas on Mars Indicates Life.



Two different teams, one using Mars Express, the second using the Canada-France-Hawaii telescope, have discovered about the same proportion of methane in the Martian atmosphere (roughly 1/100,000,000). This is about 100 times less than on Earth. According to the second team, "methanogenesis by living subterranean organisms is the most likely explanation" (living now, not fossils).

Massachusetts – Shape Shifting

METHUEN – The witness spotted a shape shifting object moving low to the ground at 9:40 PM. on March 19, 2004. At first I thought it was a balloon being launched from a local business but it was almost gas like in form. As this mass went up, I realized it was changing shape with a slight changing of color. I followed it up and then it started moving over my head pretty high in the sky. I followed it until it went over my sister in laws house and I couldn’t see it anymore. I then saw three lights chasing it. These lights seemed extremely high and moved extremely fast following the shape changing objects exact path. I can only explain it as cloud like or gas like with a self emitting light? It seemed to change shape and color. It started low to the ground and rose slowly. I have never seen anything like it before. I called my local Police, but no one else has reported anything. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Rhode Island - Egg Shaped Object



West Warwick – I was walking the dogs with my son and saw what I thought was a falling star. I said "look a falling star". By the time I was done saying that, I realized it wasn’t a falling star because it was going horizontally and it was much too low. So I yelled it's not a falling star, it's a UFO and then I thought it could be a missile of some sort. But, it split in two. Or perhaps there were two that were traveling close together and just split apart. Then, one went east and the other went very slightly south east.

((NUFORC Note: The witness believed that the object probably was not a meteor. PD))



New York - Sky WatchnnnnnnnnNew Jersey – Abduction Investigation

PINE BUSH -- Vinny Polise writes, "Just 45 minutes from the hustle and bustle of New York City, Pine Bush is one of the most serene places to visit because of its peaceful surroundings and rolling hills but its secret is frequent UFO visits." The winter months have been extremely hard on the sky watchers with high winds and temperatures that dropped well below freezing, but spring is upon us so the nightly UFO sky watches will become more and more frequent. I was recently at the monthly meeting of the United Friends Observer Society, which is held the first Wednesday of the month at the Old School House on Route 52 in Walker Valley. Sightings are starting to pick up once again.



John and Sue Mann play a big part in the experiences that surround the Pine Bush enigma. They are the ones to talk with when dealing with strange activity in Pine Bush. Check out their photos, which are extremely impressive! Thanks to Vinny Polise The Pine Bush Experience www.pinebushufo.com



New Jersey - Light Formations



TINTON FALLS – The observers have been seeing orbs near the Jersey Shore on a regular basis. This is the 5th event in the last three months. They have increased in frequency and because of other events the observers suspects other aspects of these 'sightings' might be in effect on March 21, 2004 at 9 PM. I was heading out to the garage and felt panicked, something I haven't felt since I was a young boy and it was exactly the same feeling, specifically a feeling of being watched. The temperature had dropped significantly, clearing the night sky for some good star viewing this evening. I look at the night sky each and every night, as well as study astrology and do some amateur astronomy, so I am VERY aware of the positions of the planets. What I first thought to be Venus, was a bit too high in the sky for 8:25pm. I kept looking and thought it was odd that it looked as bright as it did in late February.



I continued to look and it faded into a very faint dot, and then disappeared. " With that, I looked DIRECTLY above my head, and saw two more bright 'dots' or orbs' which were flying in an echelon right formation, heading due east. These things were bright looking stars, but lower than real stars and they turned into dim dots (which then made them look more natural like stars. I looked back in the direction of the first object and it came 'zooming' back into full brightness. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



HOPEWELL - On March 22, 2004 at 8 PM, while driving on back road near Hopewell, two friends spotted a formation of four lights, with the bottom three diagonal to the right . The top brightest light was slightly off to the left. We looked at the formation for a minute while it stayed stationary, and then the top brightest light began to move. It passed the car and changed position from the right of the car over to the left. Once we looked back at the remaining three lights, the next top one moved a little to the right, flew straight up, then disappeared into the sky. After driving a little while longer, we were shocked to find a number of blinking lights surrounding the car. After a short amount of time, the objects disappeared, and we noticed we were being followed by a mysterious car. The car's headlights were so bright it caused my friend and me to comment on growing headaches. When we slowed to allow the car to pass, it came to a stop, and eventually fell behind us. The whole event lasted about ten minutes.Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



North Carolina – Two Elongated Objects


VIRGINIA BORDER – The witness was driving south on Highway 220 toward Greensboro at 5:30 PM, on March 14, 2004, when an object appeared in front of him in the distance and was moving in a very fluid manner across the sky. It was silver, elongated and left no contrail like a plane. There were also two airliners in the air at what seemed to be about the same altitude and they were leaving contrails, but this object was not. I kept watching and then it just darted straight up and vanished. A few minutes later, I saw another object that looked exactly the same as before. Its characteristics were the same as the first. The second object stayed in the sky moving to the west for just a few minutes and then it darted up and away like the first object. It was difficult to tell the altitudes of the objects, but I would say it was between 10,000 - 25,000 feet. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Kentucky -Huge Craft

LOUISVILLE – A huge cone shaped object was flying very slow and stopped for a few seconds and then started moving again and then picked up speed at 4:10 AM on March 23, 2004. The witness was at a new cut road in Louisville and got out of his car to view the huge craft that was a little over a mile away at a 45 degree angle. The craft had four lights that were visible, two on the top and two on the bottom. It was moving northwest and the weather was clear at 32 degrees. There was no sound and it had to be at least 300 yards long. The top was about half of that. This had to be the mother of the mother ships. This was not a plane, bird, or chopper. I know what I saw. I have a degree in criminal justice, private investigations and certified in missing persons and studied bounty hunting and fingerprinting, I work on facts and facts only, and this is a fact. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Ohio – Disc Paces Cars

SHEFFIELD LAKE -- Around 11 PM on Friday night, March 19, 2004, three friends decided to go to a local pub and were driving west on US Route 6 towards Lorain at about 35 mph in light traffic. The road follows the southern shore of Lake Erie, homes line both sides of the road, and those on our right have the lake as their backyard. Two friends were in the first vehicle and a friend was following. They could see a very bright white light ahead on the right in a cluster of trees. They thought it might be a medical helicopter traveling along the shoreline but it was not moving. As we cleared the trees there it was about 50 feet above the lake right next to a large house. There was a very bright white light but as they got closer they could make out faintly in the light a saucer shaped object with a dome on top and one red and blue light below it, steady not flashing. The light was very intense yet gave no reflection, not on the house or on the ground. The witness states, “I’m still driving westbound in some traffic, I slowed down and want to stop but unless you go into a driveway you can't. Then the object started moving, pacing us at about 30mph, still maintaining its position over the shore line and going behind houses for thirty minutes, yet no reflection on anything.” It looked to be about 20 to 25 feet in diameter and did not change its appearance. My friend said, "Be careful driving, since I was staring at the UFO.”



All of a sudden a feeling of fear came over me, not just being afraid but near terror. I was driving OK, and leaving about seven or eight car lengths behind the car in front because I was trying to make out exactly what the shape within that light was and keeping along side of it. Then, I thought what's with this fear. Then the fear left and I had a feeling of contentment. We watched the ship the whole time, and after about 5 blocks, we made the one traffic light, the UFO started to speed up and flew faster and faster heading west and climbing until its light became a pinpoint. The climb was very gradual as it accelerated away very smoothly. The person following us didn't see a thing. The geographical location is near Avon Point on Lake Erie. I downed a drink as soon as we got to the pub. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Disc image taken by George Ritter 30 miles from Lake Erie



Minnesota – Flying Triangle



OAKDALE – The witness reports, “On this night My fiancé', her daughter and myself witnessed a triangular object flying northeast on March 24, 2004. It passed directly over our vehicle as we were driving due south at 9 PM. We saw it initially coming towards us several miles away. I said to my fiancé, "Look, there is a UFO". In jest at first because we are both sky-watchers. I said this because I am not used to seeing aircraft with dominate blue and green lights. There were 6 lights visible from the bottom of the craft. Two lights, with a blue and a green that were dominate. There were three yellow/white lights about 1/3 as bright as the green and blue lights. Also, a slightly fainter red light. The red light was on the leading edge of the triangle at the apex. Two thirds of the way back to the base of the triangle were green and blue lights nearer to the edges. At the base were the three yellow/white lights centered on the base between the green and blue lights.



As it came closer and then right over us, it was very clear that this was not a helicopter and it was flying at 1200 feet altitude and there was no sound. It seemed to be going no more than 80 miles per hour. I turned around to follow it and kept up pretty well at 50 MPH. I was in a residential area and soon had to stop. We stopped and watched it for several minutes and saw a helicopter flying NW seemingly going towards this object. There was also another helicopter going directly N and to our left that seemed to be headed in that direction, also. It was very easy to hear and see that these were helicopters. As the triangle reached five miles north of us it turned to the northwest. I am former Air Force and know aircraft but this is the first time I have been stumped ;) Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Texas – UFO Photographed



ROUND ROCK – The witness was outside and noticed what looked like a plane leaving a contrail going straight up on March 22, 2004. There was something sitting there next to the contrail at 11:30 AM.. He states, “I got two pictures before it disappeared.” It was glowing on the bottom and silver on top. He was facing toward Austin Bergstrom Airport, but 30 miles south of it. Maybe it is the angle, but I swear it seemed it was taking off almost straight up and moving pretty fast too. mmay1@austin.rr.com



Arizona - Light



LAKE HAVASU CITY – A bright reddish-orange light was spotted southeast of the city phasing on and off in an inconsistent north-to-south-to-north again pattern. I saw a bright, artificial light (relative in terms to the stars) in the sky southeast of the city. On first sighting it "turned on" for about 3 or 4 seconds, holding, then phased out on March 24, 2004 at 8:30 PM. Approximately 3 seconds later it flared again, but more to the south, in the same manner as it did before. About 15 seconds later it flared again, but more to the north. The light was orange-red in color. Other aircraft were observed in the vicinity of the light. It should be noted that Nellis AFB is approximately 150 miles to the north, while Luke AFB is about 200 miles to the east. The light was not a shooting star, as it exhibited no like patterns. I don't claim that the object was a UFO or a craft of any type, but it was inconsistent with anything else I've seen, and I've lived in the open West near air force bases and missile testing facilities nearly all my life. I also make a living based on my ability to observe. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



California – Disk and Sphere

VALENCIA -- Looking out my bedroom window, i observed an unusual hovering object in the distance. The shape was somewhat difficult to see, as it was far away, and high, in a dark sky. However, three lights, in a horizontal row, each light seemingly multicolored (white, pink, green...but difficult to tell for sure) maintained the same position until i went to bed about an hour later. Possible blimp? My husband is an astrogeophysicist and said that it was the closest thing to a UFO he has ever seen.



Santa Monica – The craft came from the west out from over the Pacific Ocean at 12:15 PM, on March 15, 2004. It was flying much higher than the commercial jet traffic over Los Angeles. It looked like four shiny metallic spheres traveling at a very high velocity together. They passed over the Los Angeles Valley then went over the mountains to the east of Burbank heading east. Less than two minutes passed from the time I spotted the object over the Pacific to the time it went over Los Angeles and over the mountain east of Burbank and out of sight. The craft was much bigger than a commercial jet and as it rotated up it formed the classical chevron shape. I've made several 3D renderings of what I saw to help explain.


UFO1_1: View of approaching craft from over the Pacific - balls parallel to the ground
UFO2_2: Chevron shape it formed when it rotated upward
UFO3_3: Object rotates back to 4 balls together flying parallel to the ground
UFO4_4: Object slightly rotated. The craft appeared a metallic/chrome in color. The very high craft appeared much larger than the lower flying Commercial Planes approaching LAX..Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter





MODESTO –R. David Anderson writes, “I have been seeing UFO's while I was working on a sunroom addition on our house. I noticed one twice last week while I was working and on March 22, 2004. I finished up around 4 PM, and rested with my new 4.3 digital camera nearby. After about 35 minutes, I saw the UFO to the north flying at about 30 mph and was probably about 250 feet high. It's direction of travel was toward the Southeast. I picked up the camera and began to take pictures, following it's movement as it went from the northern sky to the eastern sky in about 45 seconds. It went behind a large tree. When it came back into my view it had climbed much higher and began to dim as it moved farther away. My seven year old daughter also saw this UFO."

Thanks to R. David Anderson.



Washington –Three Flying Lights



YAKIMA -- They moved slowly across the ridge to the valley on March 17, 2004, at 8:10 PM, as if looking for something at 8:20 PM. The witness was out driving in the West Valley area when he saw three lights in the sky. The witness says, “At first I thought they were just star's until they moved, so I stopped and started watching.” They were moving slow at first across a ridge line then down in a valley over homes and field’s making no sound's at all They were three small round or flat lights with a steady gold glow. I watched for about ten or fifteen minuets and all at once they were gone in to the night sky! Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



Canada - Prime Minister Sees UFO's

RUE DE LA MONTAGNE, QC – The witness was outside his apartment building at Orion when coming from the west, he saw a slightly faint looking orange light on March 21, 2004, at 9:45 PM. It was not lit up and probably the reflection of the sun or even the city lights made it visible. It seemed to be two "X" shaped or square craft. The angle made it appear that there were two of them, almost diagonal to each other, but very close to one another. There could have been something I couldn't see attaching the two, and it could have been only one, with two X square shaped edges. They seemed to "wobble" as if hanging off a string and were a reddish-orange color, going in a straight "wobbly" direction right across the sky towards the east. They were going much faster than any plane but not as fast as a falling star. It didn't seem as high as planes fly at 35,000 feet.



OTTAWA (CP) - What fate the stars hold for Paul Martin may be unclear. But one thing's certain: Canada's prime minister recently had a high-flying close encounter with a UFO. Martin and his entourage were cruising above Alberta when their Challenger jet came within another worldly whisker of a luminous object streaking through the night sky. In a report to Edmonton air traffic controllers, the pilot of Martin's plane noted seeing a "very bright light falling" through the air, with smoke trailing, while the aircraft passed over Suffield, Alta., on Sunday, March 21.



People aboard at least two other planes also saw the plummeting object, which was traveling "at a very fast rate of speed" from a high altitude, says the report. A copy of the one-page form, titled "UFO Procedures," was provided to the Canadian Press by Chris Rutkowski of the Winnipeg-based group Ufology Research of Manitoba. Rutkowski, a longtime tracker of UFO sightings, obtained the report from the federal Transport Department, which routinely forwards him data on unidentified flying objects. Martin traveled to a farm near Picture Butte, Alta., to announce an aid package for farmers last Monday. So was an extraterrestrial envoy trying to convey a message to Canada's new leader? Unlikely, says Rutkowski. What the prime minister's plane and many others saw that night was almost certainty a chunk of a comet or an asteroid that entered Earth's atmosphere and burned up into fragments. An amateur astronomer in Calgary captured the blazing streak on videotape. And it appears one or more such fireballs were seen by people across the Prairies and as far east as Quebec. In any event, it's unclear if Martin or his aides even glimpsed the object that crossed the plane's path. The group's recently released 2003 survey found that a record 673 reports of unidentified objects were made to various organizations and investigators in Canada. Thanks to CNews and Jim Bronskill.



CALGARY, ALBERTA – Three witnesses reported seeing two discs on March 28, 2004, at 5:10 PM. I was looking into the sky at the Confederation driving range watching a ball when I saw the first object moving across the sky at a high rate of speed. I was able to point it out to two friend and they tracked it with me. As we watched it move across the sky - we noticed a second one in front of it, they were moving at such an incredible rate of speed that they simply vanished into the distance. The two objects were circular in shape and had a silver metallic color to them. Thanks to HBCC UFO Research which is following up the report. Brian Vike, Director http://www.hbccufo.com



Brazil – Flying Triangle



JOANÓPOLIS – On March 22, 2004, at 3 AM, a flying triangle was seen for thirty minutes over Brazil. It appeared in the west side of the dam and JAGUARÌ. Later another craft appeared. Both objects were flying triangles with a golden color. Later, the objects passed over a vehicle near the mountain of the LOPO. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



UK/Scotland -Cylinder



MOTHERWELL – At 11 PM on March 22, 2004, the witness was sitting watching television when out the corner of his eye he caught something green colored flying by . The witness saw a bright green cylinder, about twice the diameter of a ball. It appeared to be traveling at a phenomenal speed but it was difficult to tell how far away it was. It was traveling in an arc like it may have been following the earth's curvature. It disappeared from my view when it seemed to dip behind some buildings on the skyline. The speed and the color really made an impact on me, hence this report. I have never seen a “UFO” but I cannot deny what I saw. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter



England – Flying Triangle



LANGFORD -- A formation of three white pinpoints of light slowly crossed the night sky at very high altitude on on March 15, 2004 at 12:15 PM. The lights formed the shape of an isosceles triangle, or Greek letter Delta rotated anti-clockwise by 45 degrees. I would estimate that the lights that were furthest apart from each other (which were in "line astern" formation) subtended an angle of around 5 degrees from where I saw them. They were moving ESE over a period of about 5-10 minutes.



Note: Peter Davenport indicates the NOSS Navy triple satellites on www.heavens-above.com database indicates that NOSS 2 or NOSS 2-1 are likely suspects, as the ground track and timings fits very well.



Jordan - Cigar Shaped UFO



AMMAN -- My son and I were looking at the Taurus
constellation close to the moon on March 25, 2004 at
7:25 PM when we registered something passing by
heading direction north (coming south) 50 meters high.
We thought at first it was a bird or a bat, but there were
no wings, just this cigar shaped object (50cm long)
passing by without any sound. The color was something
like cherry wood. It made some 100 meters within 10
seconds. Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter
