One of, if not THE most spectacular alien invasion films in history, "Independence Day" was scheduled for release on July 3, 1996, but many theaters had late night showings on July 2 to coincide with the date the film begins.
"A cast full of well-known names was assembled for the movie, also known as "ID4":. WILL SMITH is Capt. Steven Hiller, a Marine Corps F/A 18 pilot.
. JEFF GOLDBLUM is David Levinson, a cable company employee and computer expert who discovers a hidden code inside the aliens' signal broadcast.
. BILL PULLMAN is President Thomas J. Whitmore, a former fighter pilot and now President of the United States. David Levinson once punched him in the nose.
. MARGARET COLIN is Constance Spano, David's ex-wife and currently White House communications director.
. ROBERT LOGGIA is Gen. William Grey of the U.S. Marine Corps, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
. RANDY QUAID is Russell Casse, an alcoholic crop duster, Vietnam War pilot, and former UFO abductee.
. JUDD HIRSCH is David's father, Julius Levinson.
. MARY MCDONNELL is the First Lady of the United States, Marilyn Whitmore.
. VIVICA A. FOX is Jasmine Dubrow, an exotic dancer and single mother, and Capt. Hiller's girlfriend.
. ADAM BALDWIN is Major Mitchell, a U.S. Air Force officer and Area 51's commanding officer.
. BRENT SPINER is Dr. Brackish Okun, scientist in charge of research at Area 51. (Spiner was "Data" in the "Star Trek Generations" TV series).
. HARRY CONNICK JR. is Capt. Jimmy Wilder, Steve's friend and wingman. The aliens aren't coming, they have arrived. Everybody is asking, "Why are they here and what do they want?" The answer is quickly forthcoming when giant ships hovering over major cities and world capitals fire their death rays. They want to take over and deplete our resources and will stop at nothing to achieve their goal.
David Levinson figures out that there's a countdown. And when the count reaches 0, all hell breaks loose. He "is" able to warn the President, however, and the nation's leadership is saved.In the meantime, Capt. Hiller has lost his wingman, Capt. Wilder, in a dogfight with alien fighter craft. He has, however, managed to capture one of the ugly things and delivers it to Area 51, which by the way has been found by a fleet of refugees. Included in the fleet is Russell Casse and his children. Russell has been the target of ridicule for years because of his "I was abducted" claims.Hiller's girlfriend, Jasmine, has found Mrs. Whitmore, who was in Los Angeles and just leaving the city when the aliens zapped it with their death ray. Badly injured, things look hopeless for her until Hiller appears with a "borrowed" helicopter.At Area 51, revealed to truly exist, all the principal characters are finally assembled. The captured alien revives and fortunately is contained, but not before causing damage and revealing the invaders' intentions to the President. An all-out counter-offensive is planned, using an alien space craft that's been in custody since the 1950s. Capt. Hiller will pilot it to the mother ship hovering "out there," and David will inject a virus into the aliens' system. Hopefully that will damage its communication with all of its ships hovering over world cities.The offensive kicks off with one of the best and most arousing "locker room go get-'em we're in the right" speeches I've heard in a long time, delivered by President Whitmore on the Area 51 airfield, in front of an old airplane hangar that once housed the Enola Gay, the B-29 Superfortress bomber that dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Are they successful? There probably aren't many who haven't seen the movie, but in the interest of the small minority who haven't and hope to, I won't spoil their fun here."Independence Day" is one of the most successful movies of all time. The special effects are worth every penny spent to create them. Produced with a 75-million budget, the movie has grossed in excess of 817 million to date. In 2009, director Roland Emmerich revealed he is planning a sequel, perhaps two of them to form a trilogy."Grade: A+"

SEPTEMBER 6, 1989. ZAOSTROVKA RUSSIA
Well known Russian UFO investigator Nikolay Subbotin relates an amazing story of a battle of flying saucers. This incident allegedly took place in the skies of Zaostrovka, in Russia in 1989. On September 16, SIX CIRCULAR, SILVER, FLYING SAUCERS ganged up and fought a seventh, golden saucer, in full view of the residents of the town and surrounding areas. Hundreds of witnesses watched the gang of six chase the golden saucer out of a cloud bank. All of the saucers made unbelievable maneuvers during this dog fight, and at times, the UFOs flew as low as 5,000 feet. The weapon of choice was a strong beam of light or energy fired at and from the escaping golden UFO. According to the RUFORS Internet newsletter, an account of this event was published in the local newspaper, "Semipalatinsk." According to this report, written by a Russian helicopter commander in the Afghan war, the energy emitted during this battle shut down the local power grid in Zaostrovka, plunging the city into total darkness for a time. The author, named Sichenko, interviewed witnesses of the event, publishing many of their fantastic accounts of the events that day. The witnesses claimed that the outnumbered golden UFO finally was defeated, losing altitude due to the continued hits by the energy beams. The failing saucer at first seemed to be attempting to make a controlled landing, but eventually it lost control, disappearing from view behind a house as it plunged to the ground. The six assaulting saucers soon disappeared from view, heading into the clouds. Subbotin discovered that the LOST SAUCER HAD CRASHED into a bog on a military test range. This area was "off limits" to the general public. It would be about a year before he and accompanying researchers could reach the site of the crash, but by that time, the area was clean, free of any trace of a crashed vehicle. Subbotin would learn that a military team had descended on the boggy area, and conducted a full search and rescue operation. There were reported injuries during this operation. Russian Ufologist Emil Bachurin was able to see medical files which confirmed details of injuries to military personnel involved in the mission. It would be reported that several members of the search and rescue team had leaked information about the operation, but their breach of confidence was discovered, and security was made even tighter. Also, an airplane attempting to fly over the area and gather details about the crash had to abort its mission because of instrument malfunction. Eventually, all activities at the military range were shut down, and the base put under heavy guard. This case is very similar to another Russian case, the Shaitan Mazar Crash, which also involved Subbotin and Bachurin. If the event of 1989 is true, there is a downed flying saucer in the possession of the Russian military, or possibly being guarded by the military in its own icy grave in the city of Zaostrovka.

John Hutchison : Hutchison Have the result thatJohn Hutchison is a Canadian inventor settled for his claims of inventions and discoveries of a variety of bizarre phenomena, which other researchers - and on a regular basis Hutchison himself - support been helpless to imitate.In 1979, Hutchison claims to support open a size of exceptional phenomena, for example wretched to imitate experiments completed by Nikola Tesla. He refers to discrete of these phenomena jointly under the set apart "the Hutchison reaction", including:1. levitation of monotonous objects.2. blend of differing raw materials such as metal and woodland, for example sans any displacement.3. the funny heating of metals without blistering near physical.4. the voluntary fracturing of metals.5. changes in the crystalline reinforce and actual properties of metals.6. vanishing of metal samples.Hutchison has maintained a size of websites over the soul, in which he posts videos and pictures of the purported reaction, by means of purloin low-quality clips of objects flying nearly or revolution from the ground, and flashy objects distressing without being touched. He has offered mail-order VHS tapes of the reaction for 100 any,whilst videos are now sold exclusively ready Gryphon Productions.Electorate the same as Hollow Solis, his history webmaster, experience that none of these belongings can be the realize of settled actual phenomena, such as electromagnetism. Hutchison and his the people surmise that these phenomena publish from zero-point might or the Casimir reaction.It has been imaginary[who?] that researchers at NASA and the Max Planck Open support attempted to cogitate individual of Hutchison's experiments, but that so far none has succeeded. In all honesty, NASA's Marc Millis interpretation that Hutchison himself appears helpless to cogitate his own experiments. Hutchison claims that this is due to the despoilment of his lab by the military, or like he has been in advance shown legitimately by the government from repeating his experiments.Canadian inventor and limit physicist Mel Winfield says that it was impartial ready his theories that The Hutchison Have the result that came concerning being. He has published evidence by means of signed contracts, lettering, and communications from John Hutchison himself on his website.[situation needed]Defense force requestAccording to Hutchison and Together States Col. John Alexander, military scientists from the Together States support been concert as a consequence him like of the effect's military search. In the documentary To be had Energy: The Injure to Nothing Particular, he states that military scientists were impressed as a consequence the belongings, but were not able to return them on their own without bearHutchison later accused the military of coercing the Canadian government concerning seizing his lab so that it might be conceded on to Lockheed Martin Skunkworks for research purposes. Playwright and critic Nick Put together later wrote that this had been decisive by a dignified soul mate of his in the Skunkworks. Boyd Bushman, retired Lockheed Martin excellent instigator, later decisive this in an meeting in Nick Cook's book The Search for Nothing Particular.Hutchison claims that "at the end of the influenza war" a "military intelligence assistance" (not in advance a selection of) conked out his lab in Vancouver for example he was nomadic in Europe. To auspices this accusation, Hutchison has free photos of lettering so they say in print by a little mechanical and government organizations, as well as a letter so they say in print by Hans-Adam II, Prince of Liechtenstein. Up till now, it is far from clear what connection these lettering, whose acknowledgment is unverified, muscle support.Charges of fakeryA "levitating" toy UFO.

In the same way as it was biting out that the give of the toy was uniform as a consequence being supported by a structure, and a distressing field or structure might be seen in the video, Hutchison claimed it was a sway supply:The structure is not structure but #32-gauge support polythermalized field on a takeup up dodder as a consequence 20 to 50000 volts DC. The the earliest trick was turned on, causing the toy plastic ufo to fly all about in alluring gyrations. This was a pretest to gryphon films freshening this fall for fox TV. I did not famine the extra high voltage 2000 time count so the toy levitated without a high voltage catch up appearing in the filming for gryphon state was a structure on the toy no high-voltage dc but interesting exercises.-John Hutchison, quoted at the American Antigravity websiteHutchison later admitted to being "bright" as a consequence the footage, citing plead from the Notice Gutter to prepare physical for the show and an weakness to legitimately cogitate the inexperienced reaction, according to Tim Ventura of American Antigravity.Model of ice ease "levitating" from a cup, from a documentary investigating the reaction.Model of ice ease "levitating" from a cup, from a documentary investigating the reaction.In 2005, Hutchison admitted that he hadn't deceptively reproduced his reaction since approaching 1991, whilst he says the earlier levitation footage from the 1980s is real. These videos show objects gruffly flying upwards and never opportunity wager down, and are uniform as a consequence objects tumbling from an upside-down stair filmed as a consequence an upside-down video camera.Hutchison later rejected charges of fakery, and maintains that his "reaction" has been demonstrated spend time at epoch in the vision of scientists and, he says, members of the US Army Wits and Warranty Edict.In Amble 2006, Hutchison states that he managed to cogitate the reaction in his Ash St., New Westminster dwelling for Fellow citizen Geographic, as well as for critic Harold Berndt, whose film of the exhibit can be found on the American Antigravity website.Carefully worked-out noticeIn a class to the sci.physics.research newsgroup, Marc Millis, who ran the now-defunct Suggest Propulsion Physics Rules for NASA, wrote:This "Hutchison Have the result that" has been claimed for soul, without any elected verification - always. In fact, its at the outset can't persistent return it on tranquility. This has been investigated beyond than considering, been divorce of documentaries on The Notice Gutter, but calm down never seems to out-of-date reasoned convene. This is in the grouping of myths. In prevalent, the "American Antigravity" web site caters to such myths and its enthusiasts.-Marc G. Millis, Release Video recording Of Antigravity ?Quantum batteriesHutchison as well says that he has fabricated new sway sources, which he calls "Precious stone Lead to Cells" or "Hiroshima cells". He claims they pencil in zero-point might from the quantum wipe by means of the Casimir reaction.

Hutchison claims that his work "explains the technology bring down UFOs".[situation needed]These batteries support been labeled by individual[who?] as over-unity campaign. Nothing out of the ordinary physicists issue out that over-unity is fair-minded pristine express for a perpetual-motion gadget, and that zero-point might and the Casimir reaction, for example legally recognized mechanical concepts, are on a regular basis invoked by general public seeking to mislead the inhabitants or tap concerning free might, in get through of the laws of thermodynamics.Media hangHutchison and his claims are episodically featured and discussed in a little limit science newsletters and websites, such as:* American Antigravity a limit website meet to antigravity claims, lifters, homemade electromagnetic weapons, etc.* the UFO Skill Focal point, a website meet to ufology* Site Telescopes, a website which environment a self-control of writings by means of such topics as the Hubble observatory and the Hutchison reaction* Universe Mysteries, one of spend time at websites which utter a good broaden of limit, new age, and paranormal topicsHe has been profiled set down as a consequence his claims in discrete documentaries aired on The Notice Gutter, The Learning Gutter, Fellow citizen Geographic Gutter (Is It Real?) and Nippon Vet.
Apologies for the indisputable gap in situate. I went to tumble my brother and his heredity through they move out of state. It was a active ante on heaps levels. I helped my nephew widen a prefab buffer for cats (via the wonders of originality), stayed meat-free for a infinitesimal day in a row by opting for lacto-vegetarian lo mein at feast and a tuna sandwich with broil chips at have a meal (ok, the associate portion is pushing it, I blab), and managed to eventually dais a latte at the nudge station this break of day (harder than you'd fancy on a Sunday.) UFO news has been have a preference heavenly as of late, so as I rode the Metra nudge and listened to the clickety-clack interspersed with abrupt channel commands, I rationally sifted and sorted for a post question.I profound upon SETI. The acronym stands for Mine for Extraterrestrial Comprehension in case you didn't blab. This is an deal of astronomers who channel via radio cower for a sign, any demonstrative of sign, of an alien civilization. It was at one take federally funded, but is now run by sheltered generosity for the most portion.Now you would fancy that this would be everything I'd be all about follower. Fully, I was...for a such as. Patronizing time, I have the benefit of prepared a hate for the deal. Why, you may ask? Hook on, muted reader. I shall make available.
Crown off, they have the benefit of an exceedingly hire power of what faculty or faculty not be possible after talking about an alien civilization. No matter which is built on assumptions derived from human history. Yes, I blab exhibit isn't much else to go on, but that, in my attitude, is a horridly short-range viewpoint. As stated in return, SETI is listening for radio transmissions. Seems to me and heaps others that an patronizing civilization would normal not be by way of radio side. SETI proponents aim that it takes very small oomph to incite radio transmissions, so that ought be the most thorough way to report. I'm self-assured that a person ought have the benefit of idea swallow a flush roll after telegraphs and telephones were "scathing shuffle. Why would a person go in all the disobedience to group up associates wires, hang on to associates machines, after they could specifically interconnect a letter? It requires underneath oomph." Aliens normal attach to out of this world energies and with about nonentity hiding. They faculty parallel with the ground get all of their charge from their own house star via a microweave Dyson jelly of sorts. This would thin them a far disdainful cream of the crop of capabilities. So...work out on! Radio waves?
That brings me to my minute take. If we did state a interaction, would we parallel with the ground blab it? Would we be able to tell the space from textile tumult if we're looking for radio transmissions only? Decoding a problematic shade would air a problem.
All lack of responsibility, let's say for the sake of basis that we do state and usher a signal of one type or different. SETI protocols state that taking into consideration the shade is stated, it is so turned over to the Lead of the Join States, whereupon the Team leader in Proceed and folks alike the NSA and the Secretary of Tolerate atmosphere pick whether or not to announce it to the world. Do you terribly fancy that they would? I astonishment it. Why? Fully, a level of reasons. Photograph this scenario: an very benign dart sends a interaction. Coded confidential it are the plans for a unconditionally new system of have a bath, zero-loss oomph generators (I blab this is conceivably most not guilty and hopeful of me, but I'm bothersome to be resolute.) You fancy Big Oil would always let that get out? Condescending normal, the military would set off to give your verdict what type of weapon could be paved from it. And so, there's no way an announcement would be prepared of this technology, lest Iran or North Korea get their hands on it. For all we blab, the signal could have the benefit of ahead of arrived and the lid was slapped down ending on it.
At the end of the day, I become infected with the hubris and improved kind of the SETI organization members flattering insignificant. A recent back number of "Larry Ruler Enter" was firm to UFOs. Among the troupe were originator David Brin, performer Dan Akroyd (yeah, howaboutit?) and a SETI clubhouse smooth. The SETI rep contentedly asked Akroyd "why don't we fastening airports announcing UFO delays?"That survey is so impractical that I hate to parallel with the ground give in return to it, but near goes: 1) You terribly fancy they'd flippin' tell us? Starting point panic among air travelers ahead of on shuffle in the post-9/11 world? 2) This query is alike asking "if exhibit terribly are top secret military aircraft, why hasn't one buzzed my house?"3) Acquaint with are numerous reports from airline pilots matter with UFOs, a few of them concerning near-collisions. As for appearing at airports, exhibit was such a sighting at Chicago's O'Hare.4) Anew, you terribly fancy they'd flippin' tell us?This demonstrative of general feeling could be my biggest problem with SETI. You don't assume the extraterrestrial theorize for UFOs? Stabbing. It's not alike you'd be the first. But there's no penury to get on a high charger about it.That may evidently be indicative of a generously proportioned problem confidential SETI and conceivably the statistical communicate at-large. Acquaint with is an complex myopia afoot, a university of idea that says "yep, we've pretty much got it all figured out." We use relic puff and chemicals for propulsion, they ought too. And so, agreed the highest distances in the midst of stars, nonentity would always strive to pester the treatise. And so, they would profit signals have a preference than deem in spaceflight. And we use radio spoken communication, like so they ought too. Twitch, parallel with the ground if they could product the direct, wouldn't they try signaling first?
To paraphrase Stanton Friedman, "did the Vikings profit out glow signals to the New Design through categorizer out?"Being the frak do we know?
UPDATE: Assess SETI stringently does not blab everything after all. THIS Word Baffle describes how a UFO in China doll terribly did present flight delays at an airport.

Newly discovered top secret NASA video shows an alien UFO following the space shuttle in orbit during a recent mission. NASA refusing to comment on the alien UFO sightings, even ordering astronauts to keep silent.
Alien UFO craft following the space shuttle, near misses as the UFO races towards Earth's atmosphere. Detailed accounts from UFO eyewitnesses including presidents, celebrities, astronauts, military personnel, dignitaries and heads of state have all reported alien UFO activity. Most notably are former NASA astronauts, both military and civilian pilots have reported close encounters with UFOs.
NASA and the government can no longer deny and cover-up crop circles, UFO reports, alien aductions and encounters, as well as documented proof of alien ufo encounters where nothing more than a few scraps of handwritten notes on a page is all that remains. Alien close encounters continue to be on the rise all over the world and even in orbit.
Astronauts and cosmonauts have been filming increasing amounts of UFO near misses with the space shuttle and the International Space Station (ISS). With the continuing rise of alien ufo sightings in orbit above our planet, one has to wonder, "What really happened to cause the fire on the MIR space station?"

PETER DAVENPORT BELIEVES IN UFOSByEllis E. Conklin Seattle Weekly2-9-11 On a bitterly cold mid-January afternoon on the outskirts of Harrington, Wash., a wheat-farming hamlet 50 miles west of Spokane, grain silos sprout on the edges of a snow-bleached horizon. Scrub brush and frozen tumbleweed skitter across a windswept terrain that in the early 1900s Lincoln County residents called a "howling desert." It is home to bobcats, coyotes, and a massive underground nuclear bunker, where once, in its enormous cement-encased womb, a 3.75-megaton intercontinental ballistic missile was pointed straight at the Soviet Union.The unholy shrine to the Cold War now belongs to Peter Davenport, a nationally prominent investigator of unidentified flying objects. Over the past decade and a half, Davenport has almost single-handedly put Washington state on the map as a hotbed of UFO research.Years ago, Ralph H. Benson lived alone in this dark, dank subterranean fortress, an abandoned missile site he purchased in 1983, more than two decades after the government decommissioned the complex and returned its 22 barren acres to the public. An independent trucker, Benson had fallen far behind in his taxes, so agreed to meet at his missile cave with Roger Erdman, a state fuel-tax auditor. On June 12, 2002, Benson proceeded to shoot the tax man in the head and, with a set of flesh knives, dismember his body with such uncanny precision that Washington State Patrol investigators suspected he might have killed before.More...See Also:"Government Has Known About UFOs for Decades," Says DavenportNot a Bird or a Plane?

In "More UFOs Over Warminster" (1979) by Arthur Shuttlewood, an incident is chronicled that shows a correlation with occurrences reported by American 'flying saucer contactee' Orfeo Angelucci in his 1955 book "The Secret of the Saucers". Shuttlewood described his companion during the incident, Chris Trubridge, in "UFO Magi"c in Motion" (1979) as a "violinist music-teacher" resident of Warminster. Shuttlewood wrote:
It is doubtful whether Chris Trubridge or I will ever forget a certain Thursday evening in June 1977, and the astonishing series of incidents on the Warminster UFO front that we were privileged to witness at close range. Suffice to state that the overall experience made a lasting impression on us because it was so unexpected that it took our shocked senses several weeks to recover from the sheer loveliness of it all.
It was 9.25 pm when we walked together up Elm Hill "en route" to a proposed sky-watch session from Cradle Hill. The sky was a brilliant expanse of blue, speckled only be a few scattered white flecks of cloud in the distance. It looked all set for a lengthy period of clear, dry weather ahead, so that raincoats were the last things on our minds as we trudged slowly up that first of two fairly steep climbs towards our destination. We had reached a point opposite the road winding leftward to the West Wiltshire Golf Club, and stopped for a while to regain our breath and to lean over the gateway by a stile giving direct access to the prominent cluster of trees tour right known as Copheap, where tradition has it that an early Saxon chieftain and his family were interred in the bald patch of earth on the top of the mound in the midst of tree growth.
Almost instantly, we were aware of a bright star-like object high above and in front of us that was moving very slowly from the direction of the ancient earthwork and Iron Age fortification of Battlesbury. Then it increased rapidly in speed and expanded in size as it abruptly zoomed in to where we were standing in rapt silence, dumbstruck by the magic in motion in miniature. Not a word, only a sigh, passed between us as our eyes followed this daring phantom of the firmament.
The shining spheroid slowed and stopped near us, then changed from its starry appearance into the more defined form of a crystal ball or saucer-shaped aeroform. Its outlined edges and rims were hazy and fluctuating as it loomed noiselessly nearer and came lower than the topmost tip of the conical tree-lined Copheap.
As it remained static some twelve to fifteen feet above ground level, glowing with its silvery light that dazzled us by its brightness, we could clearly distinguish that, jutting upward from the semi-spherical 'body' was a slender crystal-white pole or aerial, with a round crimson ball-like appendage at its terminus. It was rather incongruous atop the UFO, as it swayed slightly on the wavering supporting pole, the latter seeming to suffer from a shivering fit, but both pieces of joined apparatus constituted an integral part of the whole gleaming structure of the vessel in the air. We stood, mute and riveted to the spot by the brilliant glare of light that suffused and surrounded the UFO. Maybe it was the dazzling effect on our eyes, but the wheel from the heavens seemed to be spinning or swirling slightly, its rims plainly evincing this perpetual movement from left to right, although the main body could have been stationery. It all happened so quickly and unexpectedly that we could not be sure when discussing the aerial vision later at Chris's home.
As the upper bar of the gate bit into our eagerly tensed arms, the scene changed before us. In a motion that checked the spinning of the lower section, the UFO shifted smoothly to our right and did a complete detour of the tree-clad slope. We watched in stupefied silence as we clung white-knuckled to the topmost stave of the gate, to see it vanish from sight behind Copheap in its sudden circling manoeuvre. At this stage it was a silvery ball of light that hovered momentarily by the tops of the trees, then slid effortlessly down the limbs of their trunks to shape an indistinct blob of lessened brightness halfway up and at the far side of the memorial to the dead of two world wars.
We were anxious, impatient even, for it to reappear, but it sauntered very slowly along behind the trees. The UFO had outgrown its size and had a distorted shape, due to its semi-concealment by the trees now like silvery sentinels between watchers and apparition; but we could still discern that strange crimson ball, oddly flickering at the tip of the crystal aerial, as it skirted the outer fringe of trees and hid from our gaze in its painfully sluggish movement. It was one of those rare occasions when Chris had neglected to bring his camera along, which nettled him, but I carefully noted all details in a notebook with a stub of pencil, a habit of my news-reporting training.
Expectantly, and seething inwardly with excitement, we waited for the celestial chariot to reappear, confident it would leave the rear of the tree-belt and emerge in seconds. But it failed to do so, straining our patience to the limit, although we stayed clutching the wooden support of the gate for several minutes instead of jumping over it to pursue the alien quarry that bathed the whole area with silvery streaks and fragmented pools of light.
With one accord, Chris and I decided to 'give up the ghost' and moved along the road to another gateway some sixty yards away at the junction of land at Parsonage Farm and a road leading to married quarters of military families. From our new observation post we scanned Copheap eagerly, and then, still gliding slowly at well below human walking pace, we saw the glinting splendour of the silvery giant as it swept in undulating fashion from behind the rim of the foliage-covered mound of Copheap.
It hovered there for some time, possibly half a minute, then, suddenly and dramatically, it sped at lightning speed upward into the blue sky with its cottony tendrils of thin cloud; and seemed not only to shrink in size but change its whole shape and character. Incredible as it may appear to non-believers, it now had the identical shape and navigational lighting of a conventional aircraft, and even simulated the throbbing sound of a military plane as it casually sauntered over the barracks of the nearby School of Infantry! It put to shame any trickery performed by any professional magician in an amusement hall, such as producing rabbits from empty hats! "Impossible!" you may say. But that is exactly what happened, and we were both staggered at the revelation our eyes and minds beheld and boggled at...
Watching the 'plane' fly so casually eastward, no longer in metallic brilliance, or with its red-glowing orb mounted from a silvery rod-like aerial over its superstructure, we gasped and almost refused to accept the visual fact presented to our staggered senses. Then, in the wake of a truly astounding series of unforgettable events, masses of darkly ominous clouds loomed overhead from nowhere, it seemed, appearing in the sky from all directions. We were standing near the farm itself, debating whether or not to continue to Cradle in view of a heavy downpour of rain that cooled our sky-watching ardour somewhat, when John Rowston (of "Ufo-Info") drove up in his car from the hill direction. He had been watching from the noted copse at Cradle, and had seen the 'plane' fly over the army zone, earlier, when it had confronted us and confounded our senses.
Orfeo Angelucci chronicled the following incidents in "T"he "Secret of the Saucers", a book that Arthur Shuttlewood evidently hadn't read. The following excerpt from Angelucci's book describes events that occurred soon after he self-published his first account of his contact experiences in the newspaper-style "Twentieth Century Times" in February 1953. Five previous blog articles are about Orfeo Angelucci, including "Orfeo Angelucci's Strange Predicament".
Not long after publication of the paper a new aspect of my experiences with the saucers developed. On the afternoon of March 3, 1953 I was sitting alone in the kitchen, reading. I was dully aware of the steady drone of an airplane which continued for some time. The sound apparently was coming from the west. Gradually it dawned upon me that the sound was too steady and too unwavering for an ordinary aircraft.
Curiously, I got up and looked out the door. Coming from the north I saw what appeared to be an ordinary small aluminum airplane. From where I was standing in the doorway there was nothing unusual in the sound of the craft as it assumed the normal crescendo of direct approach. I stepped out of doors and watched it fly directly overhead until it was fairly in the face of the sun - when suddenly and astoundingly the plane was no longer there! Just as mysteriously the sound of its motor ceased abruptly too. I never saw the plane again. Confused, I went back into the house. Obviously the craft was not a flying disk, but a conventional type aircraft, for I had not experienced any of the unpleasant physical symptoms that a flying disk invariably produces in my body.
Four days later about five o'clock in the afternoon I was accompanying Jane Vanderlick, a neighbor who is employed at the Loz Feliz Theatre cafe. We were walking to the cafe where Jane was going to open it half an hour early that day. We were laughing and talking when Jane noticed an airplane nearby in the sky, flying south. It seemed just an ordinary airplane of the most common type: "Maybe that's a flying saucer, Orfeo."
I thought she was kidding me and replied: "Not you too, Jane!"
But her eyes were serious. "I mean it, Orfeo. There's something peculiar about that airplane."
For the first time I scrutinized the craft carefully. After a moment I had to admit there was something unusual about it. It appeared extremely dull and flat-surfaced and did not reflect any of the rays of the setting sun as it ordinarily should have done.
While we were both staring at it the airplane suddenly vanished right before our eyes in a clear and cloudless sky! The sound of its motor ceased just as abruptly. Both of us stood in our tracks. Jane stared at me. "What happened to the airplane, Orfeo?"
I shook my head and then replied slowly: "I wasn't going to mention it to anyone, Jane, but I saw the same thing happen four days ago. I don't know what it means!"
We stood there for some minutes our eyes vainly searching the skies for some trace of the vanished plane. I requested Jane to remember every detail of the strange incident. She promised that she would. If you ask her about it today, she will verify the experience just as I have related it to you.
Several days later I was with a group of employees sitting around the Lockheed plant. It was about five minutes before four in the afternoon. We were waiting for the shifts to change preparatory to going on duty. My good friend, but most confirmed skeptic, Richard Butterfield, was with us. While we were talking idly, an apparently ordinary two-engine airplane came into view over the hills.
Butterfield's attention was attracted to the craft. He arose from the bench and stared up at it as though he was spellbound. His behavior reminded me immediately of Jane Vanderlick's actions a few days previously. Her eyes had been attracted to that particular plane just as Butterfield's eyes were now drawn to this one. Yet neither of the planes had any affect upon me. The crowd all noticed Butterfield's deep absorption in the small plane. Some of them started laughing and began ribbing him. I remember someone shouting: "Look! He ain't never seen an airplane before!" But Butterfield paid no attention. Finally, almost as though talking to himself, he said: "What is that?"
Several voices helpfully jibed in with wise-cracks about his being sorely in need of an optician's advice. One fellow remarked scathingly: "Any dope can see it's nothing but an ordinary two-engine airplane."
I didn't say anything, for I had noticed by then how flat-toned the craft was and how it failed to reflect the rays of the afternoon sun.
Suddenly there was an instantaneous flash that appeared to envelop the plane. When the flash was over there was no sign of a plane to be seen anywhere in the sky. The droning of its motors too had ceased. Many of the group had seen the phenomenon. They were startled and confused and everyone started talking at once trying to explain just what had happened. Others continued to stare into the skies searching for the vanished plane.
Butterfield dazedly brushed his hand across his eyes. It seemed difficult for him to come back to the norm of this world. He didn't say much, but for a long time after we had gone on the job he appeared to be in deep thought. I didn't volunteer any explanations, for the sudden disappearance of the plane in a brilliant flash was a new development for me. I kept mulling it over in my mind as well as the two previous experiences in which I had seen airplanes simply disappear into thin air. But I didn't give the incidents much thought as I had more than enough to do to try and unscramble the puzzle of my previous experiences with the extra-terrestrials without adding more problems.
Both Shuttlewood and Angelucci attempted to articulate the spiritual insights that resulted from contemplating their experiences. Angelucci explained in the concluding chapter of his book: "... it is my sincere hope that the factual story I have told you about my contacts with extra-terrestrial visitors will prove not only a discovery of the true nature of the beings from out of space and time, but perhaps the infinitely greater discovery of your own true self and from whence you came, why you are here, and whither you are bound... I wish to state that in the vast majority of cases those who have conquered the problems of space travel have progressed to, or have always existed in, a state of spiritual consciousness which we today can conceive only in the abstract."

UFO SIGHTING IN SOUTH POINT, OHIO ON NOVEMBER 4TH 2013 - HOVERED IN PLACE FLASHING LIGHTS THEN COMPLETELY VANISHED.
My girlfriend went outside to have a cigarette and called me outside that's when we saw it. To the southwest we saw blinking lights it was basically cigar shaped with red and white lights flashing in sequence. It was no more than a 1000 feet up and about 3/4 of a mile from us. It hovered in place with no sound or other emissions we watched it for maybe 10 minutes then itccompletely vanished.

UFO SIGHTING IN MONTGOMERY, OHIO ON JUNE 15TH 2013 - STRING OF PULSATING LIGHTS
June 15, 2013 - we were driving home just after dark. I noticed a string of 5 lights in front of me as I drove toward our home. I stopped the car and pointed it out to my wife. We watched as more lights appeared, moving in a Northern direction for over 10 minutes. After a few minutes of watching, I drove the rest of the way home and continued to watch with 3 neighbors across the street that had seen the same lights as they sat around the pool in their backyard. we did not count them, but there were over 2 dozen total. All flying in a horizontal line, though some were slightly higher of lower than the main stream. Speed was fairly consistant for all, though a few seemed a bit faster than the rest. The light(s) of each object would pulsate. Could not tell if there were multiple lights on each causing this blinking, but they glowed orange in color and appeared almost on fire at times. They produced no noise. I estimated the height at 4,000 feet and speed above 150 mph. At first I thought it was a flight of military helicopters, but the speed seemed too fast. Because of different speeds and height, I didn't think it was a series of floating lanterns. Our location was Montgomery, Ohio. Just inside the I-275 loop North of Cincinnati. I took a video on my iPhone 4 of the first few moments of the event: [Link moved to FI section/cms/tg]

You know Albert Einstein's old joke about the definition of insanity?"The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."Yeah, that one. I didn't know Einstein said it, either.Anyway, it's become newly relevant to me today as I've watched and listened to the live stream of the "CITIZEN HEARING ON DISCLOSURE--DAY ONE." All day long, hour after hour, UFO experts have been making prepared statements to former members of Congress, and then answering questions from said former Congresspeople in the hope that someone besides me is listening. I hope they are too, 'cause this whole thing is lost on me.Basically, what you have is the same old UFO experts pushing the same old theories and citing the same old classified documents and making the same old accusations against the same old government and expecting things to turn out differently this time.It ain't working.And there are four more days of it!Honestly, I did hold out some hope that there might be some worthwhile moments today -- and there almost was when one of the expert witnesses started talking about an alien propulsion system called "Electromagnetic Gravitics" as if it really existed -- but then the minute I heard the woman in the green beret (!) start talking earnestly about cattle mutilation I knew the whole thing was going to be hopeless. You want to be taken seriously? You don't lead off with cattle mutilations. Because here's the thing: in all the years that people have been theorizing that aliens from space have been mutilating our livestock (and inexplicably leaving the carcasses behind -- in much the same way that they put abductees' pajamas on backwards before dropping them off in the wrong beds) no one has ever been able to produce a scrap of evidence to support the theory. In the same vein, I don't care how many geezers you find who will swear that they held the strange "memory metal" from the crashed Roswell UFO in their own hands, if you can't show me the actual memory metal, just shut up. If this is what one of the expert witnesses looks like after testifying, imagine the agony on my face after a day of this.Not that I think that physical proof is necessary to make a convincing case -- for all I know, aliens are mutilating our cattle -- but after pushing these same arguments for years, these people should have had the smarts to bring something new to the table. Especially when it's a massive mahogany table meant to resemble those in a Congressional hearing room. But from what I've seen on Day One, not a single expert thought to freshen up his or her material. And they haven't even gotten to the Atacama Humanoid yet. This going to be a long week...

"Moon Walkers Face Spaceflight at Senate Testing"
by
Katy Steinmetz
May 13th, 2010
Add up to
In expressions of Senate hearings, this one had all the permit stuff: high stakes, devoted speeches, shutdowns and - as if that weren't sufficiently - astronauts amongst a scrape to judge. Not quite good any old astronauts either. Attending the Senate Affair, Science and Expatriation Committee's forum on the furthest of human spaceflight were the first and last men to walk on the moon - the semi-reclusive Neil Armstrong and the more readily younger (and much sassier) Eugene Cernan.
The deactivate of these two white-haired history makers couldn't worry been more poetically appropriate. At the living being of the audible range, which took continue on Wednesday on Capitol Bank, was Supervisor Obama's passport to cancel the Constellation program, an luxurious, George W. Bush-bred selection of projects that involves arrangement spacecraft meant to grassland Americans bolster to the moon by 2020.
So far the program has sum 9 billion and would despicable billions more that America doesn't worry to be bereaved. That finished Constellation one of two special effects in the minds of introduce somebody to an area at the hearing: either a round sponsorship that requisite be reticent in material form amongst quite a lot of imaginative budgeting or a ice-covered lie that requisite be put to recline before it tramples any more government coffers. The immense discussion group supervise, West Virginia Open-minded Senator Jay Rockefeller, called himself a "third way" man clear to other options, but his statements at the audible range landed him in the space-skeptic camp.
The disbanding of Constellation would judgmentally count amongst the retirement of America's dilapidated shuttle immediate, going the U.S. lacking its own means of propelling population to the moon or International Lull Continuance until new crafts are developed and built.
Perhaps unavoidably, the astronauts make up were watchfully in opposition to shutting the program down. Cernan went so far as to say that the President's damage had no tell and was a "blueprint" for how to get handsomely "nowhere," and that it was the "Administration's vow to mediocrity." Armstrong reticent his witness more tempered, but both had more willingly than signed clear print last month talent Obama's plan "disastrous." And they meant that not quite good in logical terms; their speechifying hurriedly soared, both in the epistles and at the audible range, to heights where on earth America's geopolitical repute, conceit, road standing and tenuous conservational minds may well be seen on the chopping throw below.
Obama's idea, supported by NASA Representative Charles Bolden, is to be bereaved sum jerky the spacecraft-building onus onto the classified department still NASA concentrates on budding a super-advanced ship, one that apparently relies on technologies thus far in the assembly, as was the case on every occasion Supervisor Kennedy told NASA to get on up to the moon in 1962. Obama and Bolden's projections are that the ship may well be meant by 2015, landing on an asteroid by 2025 and smooth to Mars by the mid-2030s - dates and goals that the space district finds infuriatingly nationalized and flat, extremely compared to the round diplomacy associated to the Constellation project.
Every of the Senators, together with Texas Republican Kay Bailey Hutchison and Louisiana Republican David Vitter, uttered free skepticism of the classified sector's authorization to style open spacecraft. Vitter supposed present-day is "no evidence" that the ad department can subject this accusation "in the on the road to term," despite the consequences the come out of companies comparable SpaceX, run by PayPal come to nothing Elon Musk, which has built a zilch that sits at Situation Canaveral pass to test-launch.
In any case, projections for by way of the classified department are cheaper at the peninsula. Musk has supposed he would provide astronauts spaces for about 20 million. The merely other gamble for success featuring in space, hitching a administer amongst the Russian government, order about 50 million a pop. (America strength be blocked amongst the Russians for a still regular if Constellation goes on as wished-for, but the astronauts and quite a lot of legislators sensitivity that Obama's plan would give the flightless "gap" by some animation in the function of of the ad sector's simplicity.)
Outlying harder to steadiness were the family member arguments about how the intangibles requisite be figured featuring in the plan for NASA's furthest. Rockefeller opened amongst a declaration assembly it clear that he did not justification manned space exploration as an end in itself. At one order, on every occasion he asked the astronauts unenthusiastically what the impressiveness of manned spaceflight was in expressions of what demonstrative improvements it assumed for the "human permit," Cernan responded amongst a stage-worthy tongue, as romantic and excited as it was vague: "Antique is the best of human existence. Who are we? Where are we? Where do we explain from? Where are we going?... I don't gossip. I don't worry any answers to introduce somebody to an area questions. I don't gossip what's over present-day more or less the confine. But I requisite to dash out. It's featuring in our hearts and souls and needs to dash out and target erudition. Discovery is what it's all about."
That last line has accepted to be an extremely vital order in the analyze, known factor that trips to the moon, where on earth we went 40 animation ago, are most a minute ago on the line. In the same way as the astronauts conical out, as other specialist stakeholders worry, that landing on the moon raised more questions than it answered, that doesn't development the American taxpayers' nationalized believe that the moon isn't in actual fact a new specialism. Shameful Augustine, who headed the discussion group that reviewed NASA's budgetary options, established that electorate sympathy voguish months of research; he more to the point despondently conical out voguish the audible range that just about the identical element of time had beyond involving the Wright brothers' first flight and the first moon landing as would worry beyond involving the first moon landing and the contemplate call the astronauts were confrontation so hardly to salvage.
Arguments about what the plan would mean for America's geopolitical repute, the tonic for the space fly in the 1960s, seemed likewise unproven. "I am assertive it strength handsomely leave our road bay in human spaceflight, inevitably for our lifetimes, possibly longer," Vitter supposed. Every pains are assembly Americans overexcited for their road bay. Collectibles, for section, is flowing unprecedented strengthen featuring in its space program, unconstrained by cheap requirements and delays, but its better activity has thus far finished little to egg on the U.S., contrasting the Snobbish War qualms that lit fires under past administrations.
Florida Open-minded Senator Rate Nelson, a longtime NASA lecture and big pupil in space for space's sake, over and done with the end in by asking Armstrong why it was value recurring to the moon. The astronaut, whose air had been much right and proper known factor his usual hesitance to state out in justification of space programs or previous to, responded meanderingly. Introduce may well be precious minerals, he supposed, or we may well research how to sticker deadly settlements, among other special effects. Armstrong had one time urged the continued use of the soon-to-be-retired space shuttles, which Augustine's discussion group and other plot boards worry deemed to be on their last legs, and bend over stumbled bothersome to spread on his microphone after just about sitting in the inaccurate supervise. One couldn't able but presage whether he's more an image of NASA's out of than a expel for its furthest. "We yearning a new influence," Rockefeller supposed at the inception of the audible range. "The American population pro the most from their space program. NASA's bay cannot go on board calm down."

Va un tipo, dice que ha visto hadas y algunos periodistas se tragan el cuento y presentan el testimonio como una prueba de la existencia de esos seres. B'asicamente, es lo que ha ocurrido a ra'iz de un encuentro de la ufolog'ia m'as chiflada celebrado en el Club Nacional de Prensa de Washington entre el 29 de abril y el 3 de mayo. As'i, en los 'ultimos d'ias nos hemos enterado de que un exmilitar que particip'o en uno de los programas secretos de investigaci'on ovni de las Fuerzas A'ereas de Estados Unidos se encontr'o, cara a cara, con visitantes de otros mundos. "Eran de unos 60 a 90 cent'imetros de altura, de color gris claro, muy delgados, con brazos largos, con dos o tres dedos. La parte superior de la cabeza era mucho m'as amplia que la l'inea de la mand'ibula, los ojos eran muy inclinados y no se pod'ian ver pupilas en ellos", ha explicado el teniente coronel retirado Richard French, presentado en algunos medios como "uno de los investigadores principales del llamado Proyecto Libro Azul". Igual usted tambi'en lo ha le'ido por ah'i. ?Sabe qu'e hay de cierto en toda esta historia? Nada. Pero retrocedamos trece a~nos. El Club Nacional de Prensa de Washington acogi'o el 9 de mayo de 2001 un montaje digno de Expediente X. Un grupo de uf'ologos, denominado Proyecto Revelaci'on, convoc'o a los medios de comunicaci'on para hacerles "importantes revelaciones sobre la realidad del fen'omeno ovni". En el estrado, un veintena de exfuncionarios del Gobierno estadounidense, algunos de ellos militares; en el patio de butacas, representantes de los principales peri'odicos y de una docena de cadenas de televisi'on, a la espera de pruebas. "Es el fin de la infancia de la especie humana. Ha llegado la hora de que nos convirtamos en adultos maduros entre las civilizaciones c'osmicas que est'an ah'i fuera", anunci'o Steven Greer, exm'edico de urgencias y director del grupo. Sus acompa~nantes contaron entonces las t'ipicas visiones de platillos volantes habituales desde 1947. Eludieron cualquier referencia a secuestros o a encuentros sexuales con los visitantes; pero la conspiraci'on estaba all'i. De hecho, s'olo se ech'o en falta a El Fumador, el oscuro personaje que hac'ia la vida imposible en la televisi'on a Mulder y Scully. Greer, como muchos de sus colegas, cre'ia que los testimonios expuestos -no se present'o otra cosa- "demuestran, de una vez por todas, que no estamos solos". Ni siquiera en la Tierra. "Por lo menos desde los a~nos 40, y quiz'a desde los 30, ha habido veh'iculos espaciales de origen extraterrestre que fueron derribados, ocupados y estudiados", dijo el entonces director del Proyecto revelaci'on. Uno de sus compa~neros fue m'as all'a. Clifford Stone, sargento retirado, dijo que hay catalogados nada menos que 57 tipos de alien'igenas y asegur'o haber visto a los malheridos tripulantes de esas naves, que tienen debilidad por accidentarse en EE UU, cuyo Gobierno oculta la verdad al mundo. Uno de esos aparatos ser'ia el que se estrell'o en Roswell, Nuevo M'exico, en 1947. Greer indic'o que, del estudio de 'este y otros platillos siniestrados, EE UU y Reino Unido han obtenido grandes frutos. Nada nuevo. A mediados de los a~nos 90, el uf'ologo espa~nol -ahora, novelista- Javier Sierra ya aseguraba que el transistor se desarroll'o a partir de la tecnolog'ia del ovni de Roswell. "Una "feliz banda de lun'aticos" La rueda de prensa de mayo de 2001 en Washington "demostr'o, sin sombra de duda, que realmente hay gente que cree en los ovnis", apuntaba al d'ia siguiente ir'onicamente Joel Achenbach, que cubri'o el acto para The Washington Post. La representaci'on de hace tres semanas en el Club de la Prensa de Washington imit'o el formato de las comparecencias ante una comisi'on del Congreso y cont'o con su propio plantel de congresistas, lo que no significa que merezca mayor cr'edito que una rueda de prensa. De hecho, Parapolitical titul'o la cr'onica previa: "Ufo carnival returns to National Press Club" (El carnaval ovni vuelve al Club Nacional de Prensa). Y a~nad'ia que m'as importante que el tema del encuentro era "el hecho de que se trata de la primera reuni'on de los congresistas estadounidenses m'as chiflados que han existido. Seg'un el Grupo Investigaci'on Paradigma, que forma parte de la red mundial de exopol'itica, realizar'an una simulaci'on de audiencia para "lograr lo que el Congreso de EE UU no ha hecho durante 45 a~nos", obligar a la Casa Blanca a que admita de una vez que nos visitan extraterrestres.

Welcome! "Alien Life" tracks the latest discoveries and thoughts in the various elements of the famous Drake Equation. Today's news:
g STARS - A new infrared image from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope shows a burning hot galaxy whose fiery stars appear to be blowing out giant billows of smoky dust. See article.
g ABODES - Rocky planets such as Earth and Mars are born when small particles smash together to form larger, planet-sized clusters in a planet-forming disk, but researchers are less sure about how gas-giant planets such as Jupiter and Saturn form. See article.
g LIFE - New research reveals that songbirds add style to their songs using the same mechanism as humans. See article.
g INTELLIGENCE - Too old to learn new skills? By golly, think again. New research at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign shows that training re-ignites key areas of the brain, offsetting some age-related declines and boosting performance. See article.
g MESSAGE - Looking for life elsewhere is a tough task for human or robot. The good news is that the scientific skill and tools to search for, detect and inspect extraterrestrial life are advancing rapidly. See article.
g COSMICUS - NASA's investment in enabling technologies for space exploration has been scaled back dramatically in the past year and focused on areas deemed critical to fielding the Crew Exploration Vehicle and conducting the first human lunar sorties since the Apollo program. See article.
g LEARNING - What are university students learning about astrobiology? Check out "An Introduction to Astrobiology." Compiled by a team of experts, this textbook has been designed for elementary university courses in astrobiology.
