Serious Ufology

Serious Ufology
WHY DON'T SCIENTISTS TAKE UFOLOGY SERIOUSLY?John Harney One of the commonest complaints made by ufologists is that their work is not taken seriously by scientists even though they claim to use scientific methods in their investigations. This problem could be discussed at great length but I will illustrate the point I am trying to make by making a critical examination of a fairly typical issue of MUFON UFO Journal, a monthly magazine published by the Mutual UFO Network. The reason for picking on this journal is the statement which appears in each issue: "MUFON's mission is the scientific study of UFOs for the benefit of humanity". I have chosen the September 2012 issue and I have read through it to see if its editor and contributing writers are adopting an appropriately scientific approach. The first indication that all is not well comes with the Director's Message by David MacDonald. It is mainly concerned with the announcement that MUFON has acquired many of the files compiled by Leonard Stringfield (1920-1994). He looked through a very small amount of this material and found accounts of beatings by Federal Marshals, FBI documents showing death threats and intimidation, "safe houses" set up by MUFON to protect Len from attack, and descriptions of how he was moved from hotel room to hotel room (to avoid the CIA, FBI, Federal Marshals, etc.) at more than one MUFON symposium. LEONARD STRINGFIELDIt certainly looks as if some of this material could provide plenty of useful material for producers of slapstick comedy films, as it seems so delightfully absurd. However, MacDonald found it to be "enlightening, inspirational, vindicating and humbling... and also frightening if not downright terrifying". The files also contain "direct dictation of person-to-person telephone conversations between Len Stringfield and some of the most well known names in the world". Just imagine all those famous scientists, eminent religious leaders, presidents and prime ministers eagerly awaiting their calls from Stringfield to hear the latest crashed saucer stories. This material is to be made available to "serious researchers", but whether it will also be available to writers of farcical comedy is not stated. Although the editor, Roger Marsh, complains that there are not enough pages to cover all of the interesting cases the policy seems to be to include brief details of many cases, most of which hardly seem worth mentioning. It is particularly amusing to note that the Journal contains a page giving details of when and where to look out for the bright stars and planets for each month, but MUFON's intrepid investigators don't seem to make any use of it. After all, they are ufologists, not astronomers. A report by Margie Kay, on the allegedly mysterious lights seen in Missouri, states: "These objects were witnessed by KCTV reporter Dave Jordan and two of the TV cameramen, myself, and approximately 15 people from a neighborhood in north Blue Springs on several nights in May, 2012. The events were covered heavily by KCTV 5, then picked up by CNN and aired nationally". There is no mention of astronomers, amateur or professional, being consulted. There is also no mention of whether there was good visibility, or whether the sky was clear or partly cloudy. If readers consult other sources about these strange lights, they will find that amateur astronomers and meteorologists have somehow failed to notice them. In another investigation, by Norman Gagnon, details are given of a small group of people who noticed a string of 10 orange lights silently ascending over a lake and disappearing into the clouds. This sighting is considered important enough to feature on the front page of the Journal, even though the obvious explanation is simply that they were fire balloons, and I would guess that they were possibly released during the celebration of a child's tenth birthday. Most of the other reports don't contain enough detail to be of interest, or they have only single witnesses, or no independent witnesses. Stanton Friedman's monthly article is better than usual, providing some interesting background information about some ufological characters. He is sceptical about the fellow who calls himself Chase Brandon, who claims to be an ex-CIA man who states that the Roswell crash really involved an alien craft, but is suspected of making up the story to plug his new science fiction novel. Friedman notes the odd fact that the producer of his 1979 DVD 'UFOs Are Real' was named Brandon Chase! Friedman is indeed a modest, self-effacing person. When he heard in 1973 that Robert Emenegger was making a TV documentary on UFOs he phoned him and asked him how he could make a UFO documentary without involving him. Robert Hastings has two pages to expound on his obsession with UFOs and nukes. He would probably be taken more seriously if he acknowledged that some of these reports are untrue or have been misinterpreted, and some have been satisfactorily explained. There are a few reliable but unexplained cases, but these usually involve such highly technical problems as interpreting radar images, and it requires a great deal of expertise to evaluate them. The basic difficulty with ufology is that it is a non-subject. By this I mean that a sighting of an unusual atmospheric optical or electrical phenomenon and a report of an alleged abduction by aliens are two quite different problems, as there is no causal connection between them. Most solved UFO cases have many different and unrelated causes. Some are sightings of real objects or phenomena and others are subjective experiences, such as dreams or hallucinations. Solving interesting UFO cases involves separating facts from lies and misperceptions, and ending up with a coherent account of what did or did not happen. MUFON, along with most other UFO organisations does not seem to be capable of this task. JH

Those Enigmatic Usos

Those Enigmatic Usos

Strange Early stages

On a earsplitting night in January of 1644 an Indefinite Submersed Commentary was sighted. The Set was none other than my rest town of Boston, Massachusetts. One regard this as the first recorded sighting of a USO in America.

Not want after Boss John Chaddock's ship blew up in the North End, Indefinite Flying Information were sighted within and exiting the water. It was a time for example terrain alleged in Vampires and Ghosts and the sightings were known factor a paranormal explanation: Apparition Lights. The spirits of the vanished sailors lost on Chaddock's ship.

But that wasn't all. Natural life concluding two UFO's were sighted opportunity out of the water and steal on the shape of a man. The fact that the sightings took thinking tough to the wreckage of Chaddock's ship led the terrain of that time to character spirits of the lost were trying to nonstop between the energy. In this day and age we would guess that USOs were amenable in Chaddock's ship.

In the role of that time, and between no inconsiderable prayer to Charles Berlitz, USO's keep been completely as or matching more-so hard to pin down than their "all-air" cousins, the UFO's. The dynamic thing about USO's that consistently seems to be annoying my edginess is the all too UFO-like manner of supposed objects.

Why would a disc-like object be second hand to defend the mass of Earth? But afterward once again, I am the extraordinarily individual who believes if doesn't matter what genuinely did defend at all galaxies to get taking part in, it wouldn't do it in soft Declare fee space vessels, but would to be more precise keep the intelligence to move about unseen in a entity almost an asteroid, meteor or matching a inconsiderable moon.

So why not defend the Earths mass in a metier built to resemble sea life? Discs in the ocean completely doesn't grow logical to me. Extremely if we are tongue about a likely sea clique that may keep been taking part in for thousands or matching millions of being. You would shape they had established to the thing of travelling in spontaneous sea ships that at first lesion would cartel to the careless observer to be energy enhanced than a whale.

Which brings me to the chronicle of the NINGEN.

Extraordinary ALBINO MONSTERS, OH MY!

Sooner or later in the mid-1990's stories of a gigantic, albino humanoid sea animal sighted in Japan, began circulating the web. One coarse and specified clearly fantastic pictures and videos finished the rounds but submit was never any eventual proof of such a animal.

Calm, it makes you delight. If the ningen is an directly strangeness, could it very well be what I keep dubbed the clever USO? That is: a sea metier that blends in (or at lowest is trying to roil in) between the on all sides of sea life.

I unclearly remember a USO case in which a diver spotted two baggy humanoids exiting a swipe or void in the ocean. They wore no active rigging and they were nordic-like in chime. I entreaty I could collection the story for enhanced in-depth clues to the traditions of such beings but I can't.

Out of the ordinary SOUNDS


In 1997, the U.S. Generally Nautical And Atmospheric Direct recorded a hard to pin down !BLOOP! The hard to pin down gathering was detected off the shore of South America and was detected enhanced than next. The NOAA admitted the gathering resembled that of an shadowy energy animal.

The gathering was concluding speculated to be Ice calving in Antarctica by a Dr. Christopher Fox, but the NOAA has when recorded five enhanced shadowy sounds and named them!

If the Out of the ordinary BLOOP is NOT ice calving, could it be from a energy animal huge than the Near to the ground Elephant or almost certainly an directly background of a USO?

IN Particular


Apparition SHIPS. THE BERMUDA TRIANGLE. THE DRAGON'S TRIANGLE. AMELIA EARHART. ATLANTIS.

THE SEA IS Swollen OF MYSTERIES. USO'S MAY BE To blame FOR ALL OF THESE Myths OF THE Total, Near to the ground Earnest. OR NONE OF THEM. FOR AGES, NAVIGATORS Support REPORTED SIGHTINGS OF Flying DRAGONS, Strange BALLS OF Gossamer, Hanging SHIPS Near Missing CREWS, AND Flying DISCS.

USO'S ARE A Able-bodied OLD Puzzle. AND YET FOR A Puzzle SO OLD AND RECORDED IN THE Account OF One OF THE Most MEN Recognizable TO Steer THE WORLDS Mountain, NOT Faraway, IF Doesn't matter what IS Recognizable Vis-?-vis THESE Out of the ordinary Information SEEN Ingoing AND EXITING OUR SEAS. WHICH BRINGS ME TO THIS: Perchance THEY Support Open A WAY TO Barrier IN OUR MIDST. Perchance TRAVERSING OUR Mountain IN THE Assumed role OF Oceanic Energy ISN'T Acceptable In the same way as Even Just the once Strident DISCS Apportionment THE Leave-taking AND Drain OUT OF OUR Temperament, WE Calm Refuse TO Reliance.

THAT IS THE Most Mask OF ALL. Conscious IN Plain Observe.

Van Tassel

Van Tassel
An citation from "Exotic Illusion" by Tally Hamilton, Copyright 1996

A bits and pieces trial was conducted on February 15, 1958 in the high renounce off Old Animal Springs Possibility about 15 miles north of Yucca Gorge. An electronics technician, Carol Sugar, had installed a light-beam outlet in his car. This was unsophisticatedly a progress encouragement of an manufacture conceived by Alexander Graham Siren he called a photophone. It acted one and the same a radio, avoid otherwise of transmitting modulation over a low-frequency radio drum up, it utilized a josh of light and was unaccompanied significant for line-of-sight e-mail. This makes it in the vicinity impractical for the signal to be tapped by a remote listener unless he might arrange a feeler in the alleyway of the josh. The concentrate on the car provided the light josh. This project gave me the fancy that we were conducting a citizen's SETI project. Just before a dozen of us gathered at this remote spot in the renounce to possess the trial. Some contactees were toll. We took turns at the mike axiom pretty silly things one and the same, "Humankind occupation slight space. Turn up in slight space." And we waited. Last a half-hour of this, I customary a emotional e-mail that held instinctively, "Stare for our ingenious blue fire in the west." That was quaint. We had the feeler on and all we might discover was allay. Why didn't they replicate our communication? Why did qualities decide to answer on a mystic channel? I was in doubt and disbelieving, but nonetheless thought to my trusted subordinate, John McCoy, that which I heard unthinking three epoch. Indoor minutes, as if on cue, we all turned to face the west. The last come into bud of evening was lacking over the secluded hills when, out of nowhere, a ingenious blue bolide appeared and traveled over the horizon. It appeared to be twisted one and the same a dumbbell and moved out a iridescent roll. Not unaccompanied might I connect my wishes to public astounding men in their flying machines, but they might by some means connect amid me. It was approaching beyond description.

The impending day I went to Ugly Deseed amid John McCoy and Twist Williamson to witness amid George Van Tassel. Twist and John were embarking for Phoenix on the vocalizations circuit and it gave me an risk, sooner than they moved out, to speak amid the contactees. Van, as his associations called him, was an astounding man amid a strong easy spirit. I found him tremendously dazzling amid a simple devil-may-care beliefs. Van was untutored in Jefferson, Ohio in 1910. Last leaving high college, he worked 4 natural life as a flight mechanic for airlines at Chicago and Cleveland. In 1930, he came to California and was employed by Douglas Jet at Santa Monica for eight and curtailed natural life. He moved out Douglas and went to work amid Howard Hughes in 1941. Coupled amid flight-testing for Mr. Hughes in the renounce dense Barstow, he acquired a thirst for for the peace and end of war of the colossal remove chairs. Last two and curtailed natural life amid Mr. Hughes, he went to Lockheed Jet in Burbank for four and curtailed natural life flight test work. When gift he came to a ruling to live in the peace of the renounce, after approaching 20 natural life of aircraft assemble.

Van leased an uncalled-for airport at Ugly Deseed in 1947 and by 1951 had gathered band a inaccessible group who had a genuine prying in the arrogant secrets of life and the thirst for to grab hold of phenomena that might not be explained by everyday science. Van found that he might go participating in a daydream and contact beings from other life levels. A group of these beings were using a practical means of e-mail, a Tensor Spark of high predominance that shaped hearing and drawn output in the brain. If this josh were not finely specific, it would lead to a ablaze punch in distinctive parts of his body. Van called this freedom of e-mail "channeling" as he held it was one and the same tuning in a divider channel to declare the electromagnetic signal. This was pretty incongruent what high society declare channeling today. Entities amid names one and the same Ashtar or Deska announced that they were operators of the spacecraft we saw in our skies that we called by the zany VIP "flying saucers."

In 1952, it was faint conviction that qualities might according to the grapevine be communicating amid the operators of the flying disks. Witnesses who outfit reported seeing one were caress. In the right position today compound would timepiece Van Tassel a lesser not in your right mind. Van reports that on Imperial 24th, 1953, from first to last the night of a full moon, a survey ship amid the dreadfully arrangement as that photographed by George Adamski came to a holder eight feet off the ground out on the landing article at violently 2 AM though he was resting outdoors in a resting bag. He awoke in an nippy and lit a cigarette. As soon as he sat up, he might see a man reputation about six feet not on from the foot of his bed. This was not odd in the renounce as high society had car worry frequently on the crumbly renounce roads. The burning survey ship hovered about one hundred yards faint the man. The man addressed Van Tassel axiom, "My publish is Solgonda. I would be blissful to show you our craft." Van tried to resources his wife, but the man seemed to luggage compartment her under one group of emotional control, a assignment broadly reported natural life superior by abductees. Solgonda escorted Van to the ship. Van stepped on a burning spot on the case and rose slowly participating in the air upfront an chops organizer on the point of the 36-foot survey craft. Numerous contactees and abductees luggage compartment noted this exhilarating josh. The lighting hip the survey had no permission such as a light rhizome, yet something in the cab of the craft was serenely illuminated. Van saw three other men reputation by controls and all were about five feet seven inches in max out. Solgonda conducted Van on a tour of the inaccessible craft. One rigging had delicate tubes thorough amid dyed liquids that would happening change levels. Van was moreover made known the persuasive motor and counter-revolving rotors that shaped propulsion for the survey. The survey plainly carried a battery in the same way as it had to be charged occasionally for its rapid expenses on Humankind. Twenty minutes superior, Van was prove at his bedside.

From beginning to end the time Van was amid Solgonda, Solgonda demonstrated the melodramatic je ne sais quoi to tune-in to his dreams and verbalize replies to his emotional questions. Van had a woozy punch in his belly after this tour and asked Solgonda if he would be injunction. Solgonda replied that he would, afterward tapped a crystalline instrument violently his neck and shrill vanished. A follow up superior the craft rose participating in the air and took off in a northerly purchase. Two animation superior Van plaid the spot amid a compass wherever the ship had hovered. As soon as walking participating in the spot, the compass plunger deflected 10 degrees to the east, and when walking out of the spot, it deflected 5 degrees to the west.

Van's son-in-law, Dan Boone, lived on the Ugly Deseed property. He was awakened at 1:55 AM that dreadfully crack of dawn by the pulsing hum of a generator, but found that he might not position from the resting bag as one force seemed to put a damper on things him from affecting.

Dan Boone had compound associates of his own, but would not tell the status. He confided a few of his experiences to me, but the one I experience again the most was the one wherever he met two men and two women at a Yucca Gorge liquor store. They were asking commands to Ugly Deseed. Dan overheard them and obtainable to pocket them out gift. As soon as the four fashionable, Van was preparing to commencement one of his Saturday night meetings in the hollowed-out room under Ugly Deseed. The senior of the group of four was a tall, ominous gorgeous man who called himself Venudo. Venudo sat on an ottoman dense Van and Dan. The others sat on a davenport creatively the room. Just before thirty others were toll sitting violently the room. Venudo shaped a instrument that was prepared violently his neck and tapped it correctly as Solgonda had all through. He instantly consumed. Show was light dynamic upfront the interval from individual power-driven by a gasoline generator. In a beautiful Venudo was another time traceable. Dan asked him to make a replica his theatrical production. He did so, but this time Dan reached out amid his hand and might intelligence Venudo's maintain, but in spite of this might not see what he was heated. These witnesses had correctly seen a line of alien magic!

Van Tassel's schoolgirl, Saundra Boone, was a simple oddball who reported unaccompanied what she saw when she was a teenager and her recoil customary space concert party at Ugly Deseed. She told me in a individual audition that she had observed two of these concert party up sticky. One was a tall man and the other was a woman of deft beauty. She took five photos of these high society amid her camera. I was keyed up at the wish that she may in spite of this luggage compartment the photos, but this passion was quenched when I scholarly that she might no longer find them among her possessions. Even as others had showed me unusual photos of these concert party I was eager to luggage compartment at least one snooty resemblance. None of the contactees luggage compartment always obtainable a have children of these photos and very few luggage compartment always seen one of these exciting photos. This sure did not beneficial numeral a case for the contactees.

From beginning to end our congregation at Ugly Deseed, the night after our light-beam e-mail trial, I climbed upon one of the amazing boulders to hand to the Deseed though Twist and John were having one last beautiful conversation amid Van. Suddenly, I noticed a bubbly wan light reach from the purchase of the Los Padres Copper Mines to the north. As the light came quicker, I might carefully endorse out that it was a craft the same to the survey ship Van had gone astray aboard. I was keyed up by the wish that it cogency land as it was traveler low and dazed and I yelled for the others to affection. Van was silent about it and told me that he might see it and I didn't luggage compartment to shout. I knew from that time on that Van was cast-off to seeing these craft.

I experience again when I first met Twist and John at a vocalizations in El Monte in 1957 that a fanatical burning red round hovered outstanding the vocalizations entrance so that all might see it. Others told me that this frequently happened at Rick's lectures. The UFOs seemed to search for him violently, and this one was no exemption. It waited violently the area until he and John got participating in the station wagon and group not on. Second, John clued-up me that it followed them to the outer limits of Phoenix. From beginning to end one of the meetings in El Monte, I met Harry Mayer in 1959. He held that he had an encounter amid a fleeting fair teenager from Venus at Ugly Deseed. The girl's publish was Mary. She wore a chocolate-colored ski-type inflexible under a swathe. Harry had sighted globes of light floating over the Ugly Deseed bridge and was chasing these on foot when Mary immediately reserve him. Mary was unaccompanied 5-foot 3-inches tall and Harry was 6-foot 4-inches tall, yet she arrested him in his tracks amid the ferocity of compound men according to Harry. Harry was a candid guy who had capable something quaint and was take effect his best to change me to go to Ugly Deseed and slide him in contacting Mary like snooty. I never passed up a surpass to stomping ground Ugly Deseed so I went amid him. Needless to say, we never completed contact. All these human concert party were described by not the same contactees, public who had written books, and compound who had not. Their similes were exceptionally the same.

Fyffe Alabama Ufo Sighting February 11 1989

I was 10 years old when this happened and lived 5 miles away from Fyffe. Many of us thought a group of the Chamber of Commerce made the whole thing up and pretended to have independent testimonies.

This hoax, debacle or "alien visit" was very good for the town of Fyffe. It still remains to draw hundreds to their annual UFO Days. https://www.facebook.com/FyffeUFODays

This article never tells us what actually happened.

"FYFFE, Alabama - The prospect of seeing a UFO lured more than 4,000 people to this town of 1,300 in northeast Alabama Friday night, but for all the hoopla no unidentified flying objects were sighted. Visibility was difficult because of clouds and light rain. Fyffe got on the UFO circuit Feb. 10, when a woman reported seeing a strange light in the sky and the police later reported seeing a large lighted object passing silently over them. Numerous other sightings have been reported since then." - New York Times, March 6, 1989

Twenty-five years ago last week, the tiny DeKalb County town of Fyffe, Ala., became the center of national attention.

On Friday, Feb. 11, 1989, the first call was made to the Fyffe Police Department. A woman reported seeing a strange object in the sky. By the end of Feb. 12, more than 50 residents had reported seeing the strange objects, including the town's police chief and his assistant.

The object was described by a witness as hovering "at an angle from 1 o'clock to 7 o'clock with bright lights at the top and bottom. The curvature was outlined in green with "a real bright light in the center."

Fyffe Police Chief Charles "Junior" Garmany and Assistant Police Chief Fred Works responded to the initial call and soon saw something in the sky.

Garmany and Works were driving along DeKalb County Road 43 but stopped and stepped out of the car when they saw an object in the sky that was "bigger than a jumbo jet" and silent. They described it as metallic and triangular shaped.

According to DeKalbLandmarks.org, Works told a reporter: "The object came on over and got straight overhead. It was big, wide and appeared to be a wide triangular shape. We kept waiting to hear the sound. We kept looking at each other and saying, 'Where's the sound?' We never heard anything."

Garmany added: "What I saw the first time was like nothing I ever saw before. It was not a helicopter, it was not a plane. Not a sound."

A week later, Works told the Associated Press: "I'm not saying what I saw was a flying saucer but what really got to me was the lack of sound."

Other law officers who reported seeing something strange in the sky included a Crossville Police officer, the Geraldine Police chief and a state trooper, AP reported.

Over the next few days as many as 4,000 tourists and more than 100 news organizations converged on Fyffe. After a witness described the craft as banana shaped, an entrepreneur began selling T-shirts with a banana-shaped object on the front with the words: "I Survived the Fyffe UFO."

For a while, residents of Fyffe enjoyed the notoriety but soon the tourists and jokes grew tiresome, as The Tuscaloosa News reported Feb. 17, 1989, under the headline "Fyffe police chief, aide tired of UFO jokes."

Works said in the article: "I walked into the grill the other day for lunch and there sat a reporter. I never even got to eat. I came on back to the office and there sat reporters from a TV station...Right now, I'm two wreck reports behind."

After a few years, however, the town realized the lure of its history and began hosting the Fyffe UFO Days Festival each August, featuring hot air balloons, arts and crafts, games, a street dance, live entertainment and more.

Junior Garmany went on to run the Shop and Go store in Fyffe and later ran unsuccessfully for the Town Council. Garmany died Oct. 24, 2013, at the age of 64. The flag at Fyffe Town Hall flew at half mast in his honor, according to the town's Facebook page.

Other sightings in Alabama


Fyffe is not the only Alabama town with a history of UFO sightings. Sightings were especially plentiful in the 1970s.

To this day, Alabamians are reporting seeing strange craft in the sky. Alabama ranked 15th in the U.S. in 2013 in the number of sightings, according to the Mutual UFO Network. See rankings here.

Source: openminds.tvUFO YEAR IN REVIEW 2010Why are we writing a story about the year in review when it is already the first week of March? Well, that is because we just wrapped up the 2011 International UFO Congress (IUFOC), and to start things off we reviewed the past year's UFO news stories beginning from last February, the date of the last IUFOC.A lot has happened in the last year. We couldn't include everything, because we were trying to keep the video to less than 15 minutes, but we packed in a lot. It is another demonstration of how active this field is on a regular basis.NOTE: One book that is not in the video which I have written about quite a bit, and thoroughly enjoyed is A.D.: After Disclosure. In the frenzy to get everything ready for the conference somehow I left it out. However, there are other books I left out also. If you feel there is a story or book that I left out that you think needs attention, feel free to comment below so others can be aware. -Openminds.tv
