UFO ROUNDUP: VOLUME 1 NUMBER 15: May 26, 1996

Editor: Joseph Trainor This week we’ve got two UFO landing stories, both from South America, but first let’s see what’s happening in the USA. LARGE, SLOW-MOVING FIREBALL SEEN IN UPSTATE NEW YORK On Saturday, May 25, 1996, at 10:45 p.m., a couple parked on the outskirts of Lyons Falls, New York spotted a “large fireball” in the sky. “It was pretty impressive,” the male witness said. “It took about 25 seconds to cross the sky, moving from east to west. It was kind of a dull yellowish-white.” Lyons Falls is on Route 12, just west of the Adirondack Mountains, approximately 36 miles northwest of Utica. Note: Conventional meteors are visible for only 5 to 10 seconds. The Lyons Falls “fireball” was visible for twice […] Read More

Editor: Joseph Trainor SAUCER HOVERS OVER NEW JERSEY TOWN Sunday night, May 5, 1996, at approximately 10:12 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time, a party of amateur astronomers set up their telescope on a hillside in Wayne, New Jersey. The group hoped to obtain good views of the planet Venus, then prominent on the western horizon. As the first astronomer peered through the telescope’s eyepiece, he saw “a bright flash near Venus.” She said, “At first I thought it was some sort of meteor exploding in the upper atmosphere.” Another member of the group, who’d set up their telescope on Brandon Avenue near Route 23, said the sky explosion was “a whitish green color.” The first astronomer looked again and saw a gray saucer with “two […] Read More

Editor: Joseph Trainor GREEN FIREBALL SIGHTED IN SOUTH CAROLINA Last night, Saturday, April 20, 1996, at around 10 p.m., a UFO described as a “green fireball” rocketed over the town of North Augusta, S.C. The object was moving at a high speed and travelling at a very high altitude. The eyewitness was a South Carolina teenaged boy. He added that, immediately after the flyover, about seven jet interceptors travelled over the town, heading in the same direction as the UFO. Note: North Augusta, a community of 34,000, is situated three miles north of the Savannah River, which forms the South Carolina state line. Eight miles southwest of the town, in Georgia, is Fort Gordon, a U.S. Army base. BRAZILIAN MOTORIST MAY HAVE BEEN ABDUCTED […] Read More

Editor: Joseph Trainor We’ve had a record-breaking week for UFO sightings. Let’s start off with a case that’s still going down. This one’s hot off the phone, readers, and it’s happening (where else!?) in Colorado’s San Luis Valley. WEEK-LONG UFO FLAP ON BLANCA PEAK From Friday night, April 26, to Friday night, May 3, 1996, a solitary UFO appeared over the eastern side of Blanca Peak, a 14,345-foot mountain in Colorado’s Sangre de Cristo range. The object was visible each night between 8:30 and 11:30 p.m. The UFO was first seen April 26 by Mrs. Helen W., who owns a ranch two miles east of the mountain, just off Colorado Highway 160. Mrs. W and her husband, an Air Force officer, described the object […] Read More

Editor: Joseph Trainor UFO SURPRISES AMATEUR ASTRONOMER On Wednesday, April 10, 1996, at 8:30 p.m. Central time, a mother and daughter out stargazing near Huntsville, Alabama spotted a UFO making its approach. The sky was clear, and the temperature a comfortable 50 degrees Fahrenheit, as the Huntsville woman and her six-year-old daughter arrived at their observation sight. Looking into the sky directly overhead, they spied “a fuzzy white light…like the Comet Hyakutake” descending in an arc toward the horizon and moving very rapidly. The UFO halted its plunge just above the treeline, and the woman kept it in view for 15 minutes with her telescope. At first she thought it was a meteor, but the UFO “did not decrease in its intensity” and was […] Read More

UFO Roundup: Volume 1 Number 8: April 7, 1996

Editor: Joseph Trainor BRITISH OFFICIAL CONFIRMS 1956 UFO SIGHTING On April 2, 1996, the British Broadcasting Corp. (BBC) presented a UFO talk show on its shortwave World Service program. Longtime UFO researcher Jenny Randles interviewed a retired air marshal from the Royal Air Force. The air marshal admitted that the famouse UFO case of August 13, 1956 did indeed take place. “We had radar reports of objects travelling at 4,000 miles per hour,” he said, adding that British radar operators tracked the UFOs as they crossed the beach “into British airspace–objects as big as battleships.” The incident began at 9:30 p.m. at RAF Bentwaters when an RAF radar operator reported “a very large object” crossing the North Sea at 5,000 miles per hour. Radarmen […] Read More

2015: When Rod Serling and Jacques Vallee Made a UFO Film

I’d like to start today by briefly noting that there is a new interview with longtime fringe figure John Anthony West, 82, in New Dawn magazine. In it, West goes through his usual litany of fringe claims and his worship of occultist R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz and self-actualization mystic George Gurdjieff, but what is interesting is that both he and the interviewer all but concede that their interest in the ancient past and esoteric wisdom has less to do with finding the truth about prehistoric and early historic belief systems and more to do with their conviction that “Darwinism” is wrong, that capitalists and scientists are stripping life of its spiritual meaning, and that the wealthy elite is making life difficult for the […] Read More

1978: Thousands of People Confirm UFO Crash in Bolivia

One of the reasons why people do not believe in Unidentified Flying Objects is because of the saying “what you see is what you believe”. While this may not be applicable at all times, in most cases, it could be the reason UFOs have received extreme negative criticisms. Among the many UFO reports, the Bolivia incident is one of the strangest stories that circulated in the media. Unlike any other reports, the witnesses of this event are not one or two, but thousands of people. The Story At about 4:15 p.m. on May 6, 1978, there is something strange object crashed on the mountain near El Taire, specifically on the Bermejo River. This is the border between Argentina and Bolivian province. There are thousands […] Read More
