by Locklip Allegedly, a dead extraterrestrial humanoid was as found among other charred debris after a fireball exploded in the sky above Ichmul, Yucatan, in Mexico, causing power faults. The Yucatan Peninsula was, alarmingly, where a huge asteroid or comet is believed to have struck 65 million years ago, killing off the dinosaurs. It is also where several meteors have previously fallen and where many unidentified flying objects (UFOs) have been reported. “The object reportedly brought mass panic to the rural area after burning in brilliant blue and green colors before crashing.” Large fragments were found, including what some people said looked like hollow bits of machinery, plus the charred form that appeared to have two legs. Officials later said tests showed that the […] Read More

On a quiet and muggy July night in 1926, a woman awoke to loud noises outside of her house in the outskirts of rural Maitland, Canada. Looking outside she saw strange lights hovering a few hundred feet next to her farm. Terrified and confused, the woman couldn’t do anything but stare in complete disbelief of the otherworldly lights. What were they? Who were they? As one of the lights got closer she managed to catch something staring at her from within the bright, bathing light. Not something but rather someone. “…It was a figure. A figure of a gigantic man with something resembling a rifle in his hands.“ Strange lights in Maitland A mile from the woman’s terrifying encounter, up the St. Lawrence River, […] Read More
Over the years, I have heard more than a few stories suggesting that agencies of various governments – including the UK and the US – have extensive background files on alien-abductees. Such a thing is not as far out as the skeptics might think. After all, back in the 1950s, the FBI opened files on numerous and well-known figures in the UFO Contactee field. Under Freedom of Information legislation, I obtained the FBI’s files on such Contactees as Dr. Frank Stranges, George Van Tassel, Truman Bethurum, George Adamski, and George Hunt Williamson. I also have the British Police Force’s Special Branch files on George King and The Aetherius Society. Granted, the primary reason why the Contactees were watched was not because of their UFO […] Read More
There don’t appear to be any official records of a UFO ever shutting down a major airport in the U.S. In China on the other hand, it’s happened three times in five years. Are Chinese air traffic controllers more respectful of UFO airspace … or more fearful? The latest instance of a Chinese airport closing down because of a UFO sighting appears to have happened late last week or over the weekend. A video of a newscast showing the UFO was posted on August 29th, 2015. There’s no indication of which airport it is (at least for non-Chinese speakers). In the beginning, it shows a round object passing over the airport. The object appears to change forms and become elongated to a cigar shape. […] Read More
Operation Bulldog – held in September 1949, and overseen by the UK’s Fighter Command and Bomber Command – was a show of strength to the Soviets. It demonstrated that the West could take swift and decisive action in the event the Russians flexed their muscles a bit too much. And, for good measure, the operation also involved the air-forces of the United States, Belgium, France, and Holland. The Soviets took careful and concerned notice, which was the whole point. It appears it was not just the Russians that kept a beady eye on the military maneuvers. Just possibly, entities from another world did likewise. At the time Bulldog was held, the late J.R. Oliver was a radar-operator at a British Royal Air Force base […] Read More
Some months ago, I recall seeing an interesting piece of footage that apparently depicted an object in flight, as viewed through thermal imaging cameras aboard a DHS aircraft, as it passed over Puerto Rico. Apart from an ambiguous object seen streaking through the sky and the agency reportedly behind it, the video left a lot to the imagination. Many suggested it was a balloon, while others said it was more likely to have been a bird. The latter explanation had been suggested due to a particularly odd characteristic observed toward the end of the footage: the unidentified flying object is seen entering the ocean and traveling intermittently above and below the surface as it leaves the vicinity. The footage of this object can be seen below: My friend […] Read More
As a follow-up to my previous article – “Liquidation of the UFO Researchers” – I figured it’s time to lay to rest a particularly controversial claim that has no basis in reality, at all. But, it’s a controversy which I find myself having to correct people on, at least several times a year. It’s the claim that the late “alien abduction” researcher, Dr. John E. Mack, was murdered. Give me a break. He was not. He died in a tragic accident. As I noted in the aforementioned article, yes I do believe there have been some very sinister deaths in Ufology. However, to take the position that when a UFO researcher dies, things have to be viewed with suspicion is ridiculous. And it’s paranoid […] Read More
Alain Kerizo Artist’s sketch of an alien allegedly responsible for an alien abduction in New Hampshire (1961) Introduction The UFO phenomenon has been going on since antiquity, accounts of apparitions similar to the ones reported in the 20th century being found in the holy books of the various pagan religions. Interestingly, a significant lapse in the record of these events through history occurred during the ages of Faith, only to resume with the Protestant revolt. In our times, the literature on UFO’s has stacked up, and has gone beyond mere description of events. Authors writing from an atheistic or gnostic point of view have used the phenomenon to call into question Christianity, some going so far as to say that “all the religious manifestations […] Read More
by David Halperin One day not long after the year 800, Agobard, archbishop of Lyon, found himself in exactly the right place to stop a lynching. Lucky thing for three men and one woman, who were said to have fallen from ships that sailed through the sky. Vis-à-vis the aerial ships, Agobard was what we’d now call a “debunker.” If he were alive today, he’d probably be in CSICOP. Or maybe not: the foundation of his skepticism was that the popular beliefs he devoted himself to debunking were contrary to Holy Scripture. But let Agobard tell the story: But we have seen and heard of many people overcome with so much foolishness, made crazy by so much stupidity, that they believe and say that […] Read More
by Maj. Donald E. Keyhoe, USMC (Ret.) Editor’s Note: Major Keyhoe has been writing about Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO’s) in this magazine and elsewhere for over 15 years. From the outset he has insisted that flying saucers are real and interplanetary, and many authorities have come to agree with him. Now he claims that control over gravity itself is the only explanation for the astounding maneuvers which saucers are said to make.Some physicists dismiss this theory as fundamentally erroneous. But, as you will read, there are others who find Major Keyhoe’s latest chapter in “The Great Flying Saucer Story” important and plausible. One night last February, over the North Pacific, a Flying Tiger Airlines crew had a startling aerial encounter. What they saw is […] Read More
“I had a camera crew filming the installation when they spotted a saucer. They filmed it as it flew overhead, then hovered, extended three legs as landing gear, and slowly came down to land on a dry lake bed. It was a classic saucer, shiny silver and smooth, about 30 feet across. It was pretty clear it was an alien craft.” The event Cooper describes happened in 1957. At that time, he was one of the best test pilots at the Edwards Air Force Base in California. He also managed several other projects belonging to the Experimental Flight Test School at Edwards and his credibility has never been called into question. On May 3 of that year, he had his crew of engineers setting […] Read More
In conspiracy theory we deal with a great many arcane and subversive topics from vast government conspiracies to hidden agendas, aliens to cryptids, and about everything in between. Many times these subjects are subversive by nature and are never able to reach a mass population due to the arcane and paranoid nature of the topics. This is a problem that will always be true, and for those of us heavily invested in the research, we will always dwell in the dark corners of the populace seek out tantalizing snippets of information, following dead-end leads, and speaking with shadowy characters. The shadowy characters though are probably reserved for the more adventitious amongst the theorists but we have all had our run-ins. For myself, I have […] Read More
A set of newly-released photos detail the U.S. Navy’s close encounter with an enormous UFO/USO. The case was submitted to The Black Vault by researcher/investigator Alex Mistretta, who in turn got them from one of his anonymous sources in Europe. An interesting story is attached to these photos. In March 1971, the USS Trepang, a Sturgeon Class attack submarine, was on a routine military and scientific mission at the edge of the Arctic Ocean. The exact location of the sighting is unknown, but the submarine’s position was somewhere between Iceland and the Jan Mayen island in the Atlantic. The unidentified object was first spotted through the periscope by an officer named John Kilika and the photos were taken by an unnamed officer. The quality […] Read More
In 1952, a large scale naval operation attracted the attention of several UFOs and unidentified submerged objects. Multiple credible military witnesses saw them and rumors say General Dwight Eisenhower was also present. Called Operation Mainbrace (September 14-25, 1952), this naval exercise organized by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) involved armed forces from the United States, the UK, Canada, France, Denmark, Belgium, and the Netherlands. Approximately 80,000 men aboard 1,000 planes and 200 ships participated in a display of force meant to demonstrate NATO’s effectiveness in the event of the Soviet Union attacking western Europe. This massive operation caught the eye of everyone in the vicinity and, apparently, not all of them were human. The first two incidents occurred during the first day of […] Read More
