1969: Scientific Study of Unidentified Flying Objects

The “Scientific Study of Unidentified Flying Objects” (Condon & Gillmor 1969; often referred to as the “Condon Report”) presents the findings of the Colorado Project regarding a scientific study of unidentified flying objects. It remains the most influential public document concerning the current scientific status of the UFO issue. Following is a short chronology of events that led to the Air Force contract with the University of Colorado to initiate the study. This extract is from: “An Analysis of the Condon Report on the Colorado UFO Project,” by P.A. Sturrock, Center for Space Science and Astrophysics, Stanford University. Dr. Sturrock’s analysis is highly recommended as a comprehensive introduction to the text. Additionally, we have included many relevant links that offer further context for the […] Read More

Project Aquarius Posted on

Project Aquarius (Gleem) 1954

Aquarius is also said to be the name of an American government project, related to UFOs. Even though the program was started in 1954 by Pres. Eisenhower, it only got the name “Aquarius” in 1960. (Robert Collins claims that it was called Gleem initially). The purpose was to gather all scientific, technological, medical & other information on UFO’s and “IAC’s” (Identified Alien Craft), in order to try and make use of the technology, used in these crafts. As such it is related to some other projects: Moondust Project, Snowbird Project, and Bluefly Project. Several sources confirm that Aquarius is the name of the framework program that deals with the overall research and contact programs with regard to ET’s. One source (MW Cooper) says Aquarius […] Read More

Project BETA

In a report entitled “PROJECT BETA,” Paul states that he had spent two years tracking the alien craft; that he had constant reception of video from an alien ship and underground base viewscreen; that he had established constant direct communications with the aliens using a computer and a form of hexadecimal code with graphics and print-out; and claims to have used aerial and ground photography to locate the alien ship’s launch ports charged beam weapons. Paul claimed that the aliens were devious, employed deception, and did not adhere to agreements. He and Walter were working on a weapon that would counter the aliens. Have we crossed over from the land of the real world to the land of science-fiction? But then, bizarre phenomena may […] Read More

1950-1969: Project Magnet

Project Magnet was the name of a Canadian research project, government-funded, from 1950-1969, to investigate the possible correlation between the earth’s magnetic field and the propulsion mechanism used in UFO’s. Started by Dr. Wilbert Smith. Results are still ‘Top Secret.’ PROJECT MAGNET CANADIAN SCIENTISTS CONTACT VENUS Government Secret Project In January 1972, the Department of Interplanetary Affairs was created, to research into the scientific investigation of UFOs and attempt to contact UFO occupants if possible. Extensive files on reports of UFO landings, sightings, and contacts in Hawaii were soon accumulated, and it was discovered that many UFO researchers desired our reports. We began to trade data and were amazed when former officials of a secret government or military intelligence agencies came to our office […] Read More

1997: ETs and Ancient Astronauts are Illuminati Propaganda

article extracted from Truth Campaign issue 25 with additional material Foreword by Ivan Fraser Over the last 30 years or so there has been increasing interest in the ‘ancient astronaut’ thesis. Although this fascination with ‘real’ alien visitors essentially hit mainstream consciousness with the works of Erik Von Daniken and Zecharia Sitchin, the population has been mentally prepared for the aliens since the beginning of the 20th century by science-fiction in books, comics, movies, and tv shows. It is so innate to our collective psyche today that there are very few who do not relate the idea of UFOs to extra-terrestrial beings and have an immediate mental image of the ‘greys’ and the similar spindly beings of Spielberg’s Close Encounters, or Whitley Streiber’s Communion, […] Read More

1956: UFOs The True Story of Flying Saucers

Enjoy this drama-documentary, based on the experiences of Al Chop, a reporter who served as press liaison for the Pentagon during its investigation of UFO’s from 1947 to the early 1950s. Miller, Soule, and Tremayne provide the voices for the narrated portions of the film. Although the movie contains only two brief film clips to serve as photographic evidence of UFO’s, the producers build a good case based on the credibility of certain UFO witnesses (airline pilots, military personnel, radar operators, etc.). On a more subtle level, director Winston Jones pulls off a clever trick; he begins the film as a pure documentary, but he gradually modifies this approach and focuses on reporter Al Chop’s personal involvement in the UFO investigation. Chop slowly changes […] Read More

1998: A Primer: UFO’s Throughout History

MUFON Summary: The sighting of strange objects in the sky may actually predate the emergence of modern man. Perhaps the earliest depiction of cylindrical objects resembling spacecraft, with what might be their extraterrestrial occupants, are those carved on a granite mountain and on rocks on an island in Hunan Province, China. They have been assigned a tentative age of 47,000 years, which puts them within the time-span of Neanderthal man, predating modern Homo sapiens. Millions of people have seen objects in the sky that they could not identify, and many thousands have taken the time and trouble to submit written reports about them. The vast majority of these sightings could well be of such things as meteors, planets, stars, weather balloons, swamp gas, and […] Read More

By Capt. Edward J. Ruppelt    The following excerpts are taken from Capt. Edward J. Ruppelt’s book, The Report On Unidentified Flying Objects, first published in 1956.   Capt.

2008: UFOs and 14th Century Black Death

© 2008 by Linda Moulton Howe “People were reporting ‘comets.’ But they were clearly not comets from the descriptions. People were reporting bright flying objects and said the aerial objects were spraying gas, which they called ‘mists’ that caused the Black Death.” – William Bramley, Atty., The Gods of Eden The classic sign of the 14th Century bubonic plague was the appearance of buboes shown in the illustration, which are swollen lymph nodes in the groin, the neck, and armpits that oozed pus and bled. Most victims died within four to seven days after infection. Illustration of the Black Death from the Toggenburg Bible in 1411. Click here for Earthfiles podcast.

1998: Are Mass Abductions Occurring Under the Cover of Darkness?

Thanks to George A. Filer for this incredible report from Filer’s Files #30-1998  MUFON’s John Thompson reports that more proof has emerged that a giant saucer-shaped UFO is visiting the Troup-Heard Corridor in west-central Georgia. A LaGrange man says that about 19 months ago three silvery dark beings of 4 1/2 to 5 feet tall entered his home by coming through his bedroom wall. He said, they seemed to “Freeze” him. They then took him through his bedroom wall. The entities have a ceramic-like skin with no seams or wrinkles. The witness thought the entities might have been a solid form of energy. Although his glimpses of them were distorted, he felt watching them was like “looking at coins in a deep pool of […] Read More

1968: Project Pounce

Project Pounce is another UFO-related project. Some sources consider Project Pounce to be an earlier version of Project Blue Book, though most researchers believe that Blue Book was only preceded by Sign Project and Project Grudge. They are supported in this by the official documentation that is currently available (through FOIA etc.). Then again, as Blue Book was nothing more than an overt PR exercise, it is probable that a real, yet covert, project would also have existed to investigate the UFO phenomenon. According to M.W. Cooper, Project Pounce was more than that. He claims it also is the project formed to recover all downed or crashed craft and aliens. (Other sources describe a similar project, yet, call it Bluefly Project.) Established in 1968.  […] Read More
