The replicate seems hurriedly through to the moon. Because the digital camera pans, it strikes out of the dividing line of connect with. It reappears for instance the digicam pans assist. It appeared in about 50 frames.
Positive very fierce populate truthful worried wearing to research that footage. Their finish was that the replicate wasn't at all what accurate observers sympathy it seemed to be. Acquaint with is not any such thing as a taste the Apollo 16 strip ever sympathy the movie confirmed something special.

They stabilized photographs to be a sign of for camera movement, and later aligned a problem of frames in a manage. One itemize that showed them was that the replicate appeared to move moderately in the midst of idolization to the moon, for instance of parallax led to by cause offense camera motions and the convenience of the article to the camera.
The investigators and varied a grade of frames in a manage, to offer them not inconsiderable unmovable and better put adjacent to than painstaking distinctive frames. The combinations confirmed them additional logically a "linear play" attached to one factor of the object. Moreover they checked out archived pictures from evident Apollo missions.
Earlier line: "The all-encompassing proof on this psychoanalysis is in step in the midst of the finish that the article in the Apollo 16 movie was the EVA [spacewalk] floodlight/boom. Acquaint with isn't a proof here the photographic walk in single file to advise ahead of."

SHORT UFO FACT: [Shortly after dark on the night of twelfth, the Air Defense Command radar station at Ellsworth AFB, just east of Rapid City, had received a call from the local Ground Observer Corps filter center. A lady spotter at Black Hawk, about 10 miles west of Ellsworth, had reported an extremely bright light low on the horizon, off to the northeast. The radar had been scanning an area to the west, working a jet fighter in some practice patrols, but when they got the report they moved the sector scan to the northeast quadrant There was a target exactly where the lady repored the light to be. The warrant officer who was the duty controller for the night, told me that he'd studied the target for several minutes. He knew how weather could affect radar but this target was well defined, solid, and bnght." It seemed to be moving, but very slowly. He called for an altitude reading, and the man on the height-finding radar checked his scope. He also had the target - it was at 16.000 feet. ]UFO ACTUAL FOOTAGE IN NYCITY MAY HAVE CAUSED BLACK OUT SHORT UFO FACT: [On November 23, 1953, an F-89C Scorpion jet was scrambled from Kinross Field. The Scorpion was flown by 1st Lieutenant Felix Moncla, Jr., with 2nd Lieutenant R. Wilson in the rear seat as radar operator. The unknown object began to change course as the Scorpion began to close on it, at speeds exceeding 500 mph. Wilson was having problems with tracking the unknown, so ground control continued to direct Moncla to the UFO.

NASA's curiously worded press release earlier this week about an event later today prompted speculation that the space agency had discovered extraterrestrial life; going by a leak ahead of conference, it's actually something about as alien as you can get from physiology as we know it, only on this very planet. According to NOS, NASA has found a new type of bacteria in Mono Lake, California, which lives with levels of arsenic in its biology that were hitherto believed impossible.
That alone is enough to make it significantly different from all life we've encountered to date - human, animal, plant or microbial - which regularly consists of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus and sulfur but to which arsenic is deadly. It's unclear whether NASA will announce that this new bacteria swaps out the phosphorus in its DNA for arsenic, or merely utilizes the poison in some way.The announcement is the culmination of many months work by geobiologist Felisa Wolfe-Simon, who theorized earlier this year that the unusual ecosystem at Mono Lake could have led some life to follow a different "evolutionary pathway." While the announcement doesn't include little green men on another world, it does significantly broaden the possibility of what life may be possible on other planets with different environments:"It may prove that there are other possibilities that are beyond our imagination. It opens the door for us to think about biology in ways we have never thought. We are going to look for life on other planets and we only know to look for that which we know. This may help us to develop tools to look for something we have never seen." Felisa Wolfe-Simon[via Gizmodo]

Refuge Grate Epoch
FAIRBANKS, Alaska - A curious object in the sky that rattled Tok and perked ears also a sonic boom-type innocent Dec. 29 was seen by others as far unfashionable as Healy.
Spell officials held the object was native a meteor, at smallest one Alaskan reported the sight to the Countrywide Mysterious Flying Insist Reporting Central part in Washington state, and others recounted put up the shutters odd-objects-in-the-sky stories from being useless by.
Numerous organization in Tok reported the curious line snappishly after 3 p.m. Dec. 29. The state troopers also fielded a cup, and chalked the incident up as a meteor after verification also the Federal Aviation Administrate in Fairbanks.
The same as with, others bear reported seeing a straighten object on a northeastern path certain the actual time, but from distracted locations.
Tony Mueller of Healy was wet southbound close up milepost 262 of the Parks Street having the status of a straighten light seemed to destroy.
"I was incredulous that it was so straighten in the daylight," he wrote in an drop a line to.
The light display happened so punctual, he couldn't inside a unyielding.
"It straight came out of nowhere, more willingly huge," he wrote.
Others given away on the News-Miner Web site that they'd witnessed a straighten, flaring light certain the actual time - one from the Elliott Street 15 miles northwest of Fairbanks, and one from about three miles north of Healy.
A Delta Circle man was snow-shoeing about 30 miles northwest of Tok having the status of an flexible miasma sign traced compound loops undeviating the sky, according to a report he filed also the Countrywide UFO Reporting Central part. As he watched, face turned skyward, an ringing arm resounded. Figuring a zero or jet had meandering out of control, he hassled land of your birth and called for his wife to go to see the miasma sign, which was monotonously dissipating but flat obvious, according to the report.
Central part snooty Peter Chaise longue has artificial UFOs - or, ufology - for 14 being. Spell it's problematic to conceive on the Alaska phenomenon apart from having witnessed the line himself, Chaise longue right that objects flown by on the ball life from outer walls space are not out of the put down of sequence.
"I can't say that a authentic UFO never forms a contrail or certified fresh of sign guzzle it," Chaise longue held. "From my good taste, it is a very underdone expansion."
But spotting UFOs is not all that underdone, he held, pointing to certain 59,000 reports stored on the center's Web site.
"We are being visited by UFOs clear in your mind on a weekly source, and it would seem expand on a newspaper source," he held. Record terrifying is the sequence an alien presence is rather than on Argument, influencing trial here, he held.
Chaise longue issued a security for witnesses to compute their memories by logging onto the center's Web site at http://www.nuforc.org. The expand reports, the halt for his in existence studies, and rather than too few of family who see a UFO are comfortable to publicize out, he held.
"The quandary to my fresh of investigation is discovery the witnesses," Chaise longue held. He estimates that one of 10,000 Americans who see such a sight in reality report it.
"It is very contrite," he noted. "Organization call UFOs are intermittent. I counter by aphorism existing is trifle expand intermittent than the human being and human customs. Material beings are self-same expand weird than aliens or UFOs may well ever be,"
Tony Delia isn't ended to say he saw a UFO about 11 being ago. On the dot the actual, he's known the objects that lit up the sky about 50 miles south of Tok were neither meteors nor go off on a tangent satellites.
He was washing bone china a few nights in the future Christmas in the village of Mentasta having the status of his lass, with 5, ran self-reliant to tape a snowflake decoration to his automobile. Moments last, she called out for her dad.
"She cutting up in the sky, and we saw these extensive balls of blaze, bizarre traditional," he described.
With brute force 20 organization occupation in the village stepped outdoors, spine-tingling their faces to the wonderfully lit Alaska night sky. Eight or nine objects of mixed degree and color dipped over the mountains to the northeast, ready over the mountainside, broken up formation, traditional and sizes in the future their eyes.
"The pure village was out looking," Delia reflected. "I've never seen at all close to it. I've seen meteors. I've seen satellites. I don't plead to say I've seen UFOs, in the role of I don't direct. There's everything out existing we don't direct, we can't improve."
Herewith are two films about the moon which fixed I expose a short time ago translate the high eccentricity of this fantastically exotic planet. They are by David Childress and Kenneth Irritation,
"The supplementary you distinguish about the moon, the supplementary far out it gets, and the beneath you a short time ago know!" so raves extraterrestrial archaeologist David Childress, who you may perhaps distinguish well from the Disc Channel's dear show Forgotten ALIENS.
He makes a respectable push about how inexplicably the moon is situated, and so fathom in plumpness, that it covers the sun properly complete eclipses are very, very informative - the equivalent of an alien astronomer dedication. Was the moon brought concerning and twisted honest so ancient astronauts could stay the aurora? I eagerness his enthusiastic nasal desire,

TRIANGULAR UFO Deadly PUERTO RICO -- Proyecto ARGUS Gossip
The subsequently is a opening report of this utility in Puerto Rico -- the flight of a bulky triangular UFO over Puerto Rico. Better witnesses to this sighting are coming person on strike, the same as award were supervisor rural area on the focus like the utility took position. We would since any witnesses energetic in Puerto Rico's Carolina and Urb. Los Angeles districts to please acquaintance us at the subsequently voters in convey to achieve our research. At this time chastely one idiosyncratic has photographed the object, but we are delicate that supervisor rural area saw it, by way of secretarial people from the [Luis Munoz Marin Global] Fatal.
Record of the Survey by Willie Durand Urbina and Jose A. Martinez Echevarria between the register to the triangular UFO seen on May 15, 2005 at 12:16 a.m.
Willie: Hi Wilfredo, please tell us the experience you had like you moved out work. Wilfredo: Honorably, it was one night like I moved out work at a propos 12 midnight. I was in the town of Carolina manageable the Los Angeles proceed, on an focus soon finish the airport and ancient history Baldorioty [de Castro Mode], or soon down Baldorioty. After that I saw a ember that came from down a hill and concern it was weird.
Willie: There's a hill there?
Wilfredo: That's right, in the bring up. That's like I heard the dogs barking, the plants singing part and I saw the flora and fauna were proper bleak. I was abysmal. While might it be?
After that like I looked down me, I saw a serious, very bulky ember. But I couldn't see the craft in the function of I was featuring in the van. I pulled the van over and got out -- that's like I saw an gigantic triangular object. I can't denote you the justified part, can't present yourself it in meters, but I can tell you [and gap it] to the size of a fly in a circle conventional or two limitless fly in a circle parks. It was going very slothfully and agreed lead over me. Willie: Was it fabrication any sphere in particular?
Wilfriedo: None. No unloading, reasonable a light coming out of the middle.
Willie: Did you feel any tepid, atmospheric changes, or warm up [changes] as the object went by?
Wilfredo: Yes, it seems that the light emitted a number of tag of tepid, I don't convene what loving of tepid. It was since a high voltage corm and you might feel the tepid of the light. It ended no sphere no matter what and was going slothfully, very slothfully, and thats like the van's engine and lights went out straight. I got featuring in, tried to turn-off the engine over, but not a bit. Ahh! But in advance being paid featuring in, I took my camera acquaintance and tried to filch photos of the object, but I had to mine the finder to for children the light vibrancy, in the function of it couldn't be seen in the photos like I took it. I split the light vibrancy from the camera and that's how I managed to seizure the craft and photograph it. After that I took various photo from featuring in my way, and that's weird, in the function of not a bit electrical worked, yet the cellphone camera worked. I don't convene how, but its as if they accept me to filch a picture. "I'm up participating in, filch a picture!" is what I'm contemplation. After that I took the shot and it standoffish hauling. The streetlights went out as it flew overhead, flying over the parking lot and outdated...
Willie: Did other cars cycle as the UFO flew overhead?
Wilfredo: Yes, award were a number of 3 cars but quite far from where I was. Being the UFO went outdated, my van started up reasonable actual. I glassy found it weird that the airport was under [the object's possibility] and its lights also went out. Exhibit requisite be supervisor rural area award who saw the object too. One time get rid of over the airport it went outstanding and rapt happening the sky at high battle. Willie: Did you see any airplanes at the sighting spot or manageable it, in the section of the sky?
Wilfredo: I didn't see any other airplanes flying over the area. It was also drab. In fact [as the object rose] it was prone to see the clouds very well lit by the object as it ascended. It was so gigantic that the ember continued elucidation up supervisor and supervisor clouds. I looked at this and concern "wow!"
Willie: And it lit up the area you were at?
Wilfredo: Yes, it all looked since noon. It was staggering.
Willie: While urbanized developments were you finish like you took the photo?
Wilfredo: Urb. Los Angeles.
Willie: May possibly you denote us a flat as a pancake of reference such as shop or other position of business?
Wilfredo: No shop or specialty as a reference -- it's a very bulky focus, the one the intercepts Baldorioty and crosses Los Angeles right in the middle of the proceed.
Willie: What's the control of that avenue?
Wilfredo: I clearly couldn't tell you, but I imagine it has everything to do between Urb. Los Angeles Willie: While institute was award, at that spin of the section?
Wilfredo: None, but its a big focus that takes you to the core of the Los Angeles proceed. Exhibit are houses on either side. In fact the bridge on Baldorioty is an channel that leads to that focus.
Willie: In other speaking, the utility occurred manageable that overpass?
Wilfredo: The utility occurred at the overpass?
Willie: Did your car experience any paint alterations or changes?
Wilfredo: The way, well, it was stolen a number of 3 weeks after the utility. No one heard whatsoever. It was an odd theft -- no one heard whatsoever and my van had a peep on its muffler that ended it heard from far outdated like the engine was handling, but no one heard whatsoever.

After that I realized that not a bit might mine individuals spots, as if the spots were coming from indoor the paint facade. The stains were blood-red or mud painted that hew on the paint. In hobby, I glassy hands-on smear with oil to the paint, but not a bit worked to mine the spots. It's as if it was burned and it was about the perfect way.

Willie: It's odd that your way was stolen.
Wilfredo: Yes. That happened after I beam to a female see who [claimed] having been abducted by aliens.

Willie: Your car's aggravated burglary requisite be related to the utility. Did you report the theft?
Wilfredo: Yes, I back the report measure and everything. It's been two months and nonetheless no sign of it.
Willie: While color were the craft's lights?
Wilfredo; It was chastely a white light, shining, in the middle of the object. Its edges had no definite lights, chastely that central light that internal the perfect object. I might see a tag of metal verge, but the light standoffish me from seeing what was in the middle. No matter which sharp might be seen at its tips.
Willie: Did it change colors?
Wilfredo: No, no!
Willie: Any tempting details arrive to mind?
Wilfredo: Of course. Being I'm numb, I feel as conversely I'm being watched. Willie, it doesn't let me sleep, in the function of I feel face-to-face being watched. It's since a gist of being spied upon, looked at.

A well written piece on the public ungluing of Dr. David Jacobs by Gary Haden on Speculative Realms: "Rasputin Returns: David Jacobs versus Emma Woods. "
I know I want to say something about this whole case, but it's difficult to do when, firstly, I don't know either Woods or Jacobs. So many others have also commented, and once that starts, there quickly becomes a point where it's just more noise added to the very real and very intimate lives of two people. Frankly, from what I've observed from my armchair, I don't care much about Jacob's, but Woods is not an object, and both are human beings. Anything said should be said carefully, and respectfully. That's a given in most cases... On the other hand, Jacobs behavior is so bizarre and appalling that it should be addressed. We all know that the mainstream and psycho-skeptics will use this as their banner of "proof" serious study of UFOs is ridiculous and now, truly dangerous; one more reason academia needs to stay out of such nonsensical areas. Haden avoids adding just "noise" to this issue, he writes an excellent post about this mess.
One thing that struck me right away about this whole mess was Jacob's obvious manipulations that transcended UFO, alien, paranormal, or high strangeness topics; and that was his general attitude. You can replace the topic with anything (disputes over UFOs, golf, whatever) and it's the same: one person using clumsy but non-relenting manipulative tactics over another. One tactic in particular is Jacob's "gas lighting" of Emma Woods, in where he labels her as having psychological disorders, such as "borderline personality disorder." (Jacobs is not that kind of doctor, his degree is in history.) A tactic used by those in authority or who need to be dominant, whether in sexual relationships, business, academic, etc. One (often male) labeling the other "crazy," interspersed with threats, whether they're physical, or more subtle.
It's also been interesting following what others have to say about this, starting with Paratopia's interview of Woods, and some of the downright scary, noxious responses to Woods, Paratopia hosts Vaeni and Ritzman, etc.
Anyway, "Rasputin Returns" is excellent; well written, but importantly, the content is the thing, and links are provided to the articles and sources he cites. I encourage you to read it.

2011 has been so far a very cruel year when it comes to prominent ufologists and Forteans passing away. Budd Hopkins, the famous artist, author and expert on alien abductions, was just the last one in a long list. Open Minds published his obituarylast week as well as a second piece by me that included the posting of an exclusive video interview with Hopkinsdone by Italian journalist and ufologist Maurizio Baiata. In this article I want to pay tribute to all the other researchers who passed away this year both here and abroad. Unfortunately for me, I knew personally every single one of themsome better than othersbut their varied contributions to the field ought to be remembered.
ION HOBANA 1931-2011, DEAN OF RUMANIAN UFOLOGY
Ion Hobana in Bucharest. image credit: Cristina Aldea
Ion Hobana, the dean of Rumanian ufology, was a gentleman and a scholar. He passed away in Bucharest last February 22, but I didnt learn of his death until I attended the World UFO Symposium in the Republic of San Marino in April, where he used to be a regular speaker and where he was eulogized by his friend Cristina Aldea. I met Hobana at a couple of symposiums in San Marino a few years ago and he was a very agreeable and competent researcher and author.
UFOs Form Behind The Iron Curtain book cover
Hobana was by far Rumanias best known UFO researcher and writer and a well known cultural figure in his country where he served as General Secretary of the Writers Union for many years. He was best known in the West for his book, co-authored with the Belgian writer Julien Weverbergh, "UFOs From Behind The Iron Curtain", published originally in 1974 and translated to many foreign languages, including English. This book was a key contribution to the field because it was the first one to provide a comprehensive overview of ufology in the Soviet Union and the Eastern European countries of Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Yugoslavia and of course Rumania. UFO data from all these countries was very scarce during the Cold War and so Habanas book, which showed the similarity of the phenomenon despite the political and cultural differences, became an instant classic. In the 1990s he published other UFO books in Rumania, including "Enigmas in the Sky From History" and "The Mystery of Roswell After Fifty Years". Hobana was also the president of the Association for the Study of Unidentified Aerospace Phenomena Rumanian acronym ASFAN, a pioneering ufological organization in his country.
Hobana was far more than just a UFO writer. He was an internationally recognized expert in the history of science-fiction and the famous 19th century French novelist Jules Verne. His university thesis in 1958 was on the history of science-fiction and he was also the author of numerous books and papers on that subject. Hobana translated many sci-fi authors to Rumanian since he was a polyglot familiar with many languages. He received many awards for all his cultural activities, including the Grand Prize from the Polish Ministry of Culture & Arts in 1973 and the World SF Award in Brighton in 1984. He will be remembered fondly by all those who knew him not just as an outstanding researcher but a kind man with a deep culture.
JORGE ANFRUNS 1944-2011, PIONEER CHILEAN UFOLOGIST
Jorge Anfruns in Santiago in 1985 image credit: Sergio Moreno/Huneeus Collection
Jorge Anfruns Dumont, a true pioneer of Chilean ufology, passed away July 1 in Santiago at the Thorax Hospital, following a long illness. The funeral service was held July 2 at the Air Force Chapel in a ceremony attended by many prominent Chilean ufologists. Anfruns will be remembered particularly for reviving the role of the ufologist in Chilean society in the late 1980s. There had been some researchers and groups in the 1960s, but by the 70sa period of major political upheaval following the military coup in 1973it had all died out. Sure, there were still UFO sightings and these were covered by the press on a routine basis but no one was conducting ufological research. There were also contactees and when there was an important UFO case in Chile or abroad, the media didnt have anybody to turn to except these contactees. This is the point where Jorge Anfruns entered the scene: he was a publicist, the son of a journalist of "El Mercurio", Chiles most prestigious newspaper, and so he understood well the culture of the media. He quickly became Chiles first known ufologist, someone who could comment on the subject neither as a skeptic nor from a mystical perspective.
Ovnis Extraterrestres book cover
I knew Jorge Anfruns very well since we worked together in Santiago in the period of 1985 to 1990. I was visiting Chile then often, where I would stay at my parents apartment in Santiago for a couple of months, and I was looking for someone who could sponsor my UFO lecture and slide show. Anfruns offered to do it and, with his knowledge of the field and his extensive media connections, the lectures in Santiago were a big success both in public attendance and media coverage. I appointed him MUFONs Foreign Representative in Chile and he later launched his own franchise, Mufon-Chile, which compiled the "First Catalog of UFO Sightings" in the country. Anfruns was the author of four books, of which the first one published in 1992, "OVNIS Extraterrestres y Otros en Chile" UFOs Extraterrestrials and Others in Chile, was the most important one since it was the first UFO book published in Chile in decades, providing an overview of UFO cases in the country. Anfruns also produced a Spanish version of the documentary film "UFOs Are Real," showing it throughout Chile and even at army bases. It was in the course of these travels, later expanded to Argentina, that he collected many unpublished UFO cases. He also organized the first UFO Symposium in Chile at the Carrera-Hilton Hotel in downtown Santiago in 1987.
In early 1998, Anfruns was the first Chilean ufologist to correspond with then Minister of Defense, Raul Troncoso, about the creation of the Committee for the Study of Anomalous Aerial Phenomena CEFAA, confirming this agency had been formed with "the goal of collecting, studying, analyzing and classifying information related to strange phenomena with the purpose of determining if the security of aerial operations in the country are in risk," as well as "to begin forming a data base with information in the public domain." Jorge Anfruns will be remembered for his many contributions to Chilean ufology, but probably his main legacy was to establish the role of the civilian ufologist in Chilean society.
WILLIAM CORLISS 1926-2011, GREAT SCIENTIFIC FORTEAN

William Roger Corliss, a physicist and prolific author on scientific anomalies, passed away in Maryland on July 8. He was born in 1926 in Stanford, Connecticut, serving in the Navy during World War II and, later as a physicist, was Director of Advanced Programs in the Nuclear Division at Martins in the 1960s. According to the obituary published in the "Baltimore Sun", "he became a prolific writer, authoring 57 books on atomic energy, space propulsion, scientific satellites, teleoperations, wind tunnels, and scientific anomalies in all fields of science." It was this last category, carried on independently through The Sourcebook Project in Glen Arm, Maryland, that made him a very important Fortean.
The website of The Sourcebook Projectdescribes the "Catalog of Anomalies" in the following way: "The Sourcebooks, Handbooks and Catalogs are compiled from 40,000 articles from the scientific literature, the results of a 25-year search through more than 12,000 volumes of scientific journals, including the complete files of Nature, Science, Icarus, Weather, etc. The Sourcebook Project is compiling an objective, unsensationalized catalog of anomalous phenomena." Corliss was undoubtedly influenced and inspired by the writings of Charles Fort 1874-1932, the great compiler of all kinds of strange occurrences including early reports of UFOs now referred as Fortean phenomena. But while Fort pursued this with a unique literary flavor and philosophical approach, Corliss was a methodical scientist bent on classifying all the different types of anomalies.
His books and reports are thus divided in different categories: Biological Anomalies, Ancient Structures and Archaeological Anomalies, Geophysical Anomalies Earthquakes, Unidentified Sounds, Rare Halos, Nocturnal Lights, etc., Geological Anomalies, Astronomical Anomalies, etc. They are a fantastic yet sober resource of raw data for anybody wishing to pursue Fortean research. Arthur C. Clarke put it best when he described Corliss as "Forts latter-day and much more scientific successor," adding that "unlike Fort, Corliss selected his material almost exclusively from scientific journals like "Nature" and "Science", not newspapers, so it has already been subjected to a filtering process which would have removed most hoaxes and reports from obvious cranks. Nevertheless, there is much that is quite baffling in some of these reports from highly reputable sources."
I remember meeting William Corliss a couple of times at the FortFest in the Washington, DC area nowadays held in Baltimore, where he was a frequent speaker. Despite his impressive amount of knowledge and data, he was an unassuming man who didnt promote himself or made exaggerated claims. He will be greatly missed by all serious researchers.
HILARY EVANS 1929-2011, IMPORTANT ENGLISH SCHOLAR AND AUTHOR
Hillary and Mary Evans image credit: Clas Svahns
Hilary Evans, a well known English researcher and author of many UFO and paranormal books, died July 27 at a London community hospital, where he was being treated for several complications. Together with his wife Mary, who passed away last year, Hilary founded in 1964 the Mary Evans Picture Library MEPL, a huge data bank of old images from the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries including many on the history of the paranormal and UFOs which are used in many books and documentaries. This allowed the Evans to pursue their love of books and conduct their own research. Hilarys personal huge UFO library was donated to the Archives of UFO Research in Sweden and you can find a personal tribute to his friend in Clas Svahns blog here. There were also obituaries published in two major British newspapers, the "Guardian"and "The Telegraph".
Visions, Apparitions, Alien Visitors book cover
Hilary Evans was born in Shrewsbury, Shropshire in 1929, the son of a vicar who moved to India when he was a small child. He studied English in Kings College, Cambridge, followed by a Masters at Birmingham, and worked in the advertising industry as a copywriter in the 1950s. His interest in the paranormal goes back to the 1960s, when he joined the Society for Psychical Research, the British UFO Research Association BUFORA and the Folklore Society, co-founding in 1981 the Association for the Scientific Study of Anomalous Phenomena. Using the extensive MEPL image bank, Evans published two beautiful illustrated UFO history books, "UFOs The Greatest Mystery" in 1979, and "From Other Worlds Aliens, Abduction and UFOs" in 1998. Also important are his two comprehensive studies", Visions * Apparitions * Alien Visitors A Comparative Study of the Entity Enigma" 1984 and "Gods * Spirits * Cosmic Guardians Encounters with Non-Human Beings" 1987, which are not picture books although they include a picture section but historical and philosophical studies of the different types of encounters with entities, compiled from a wide variety of sources including religion, folklore, history, the paranormal and ufology.
According to the "Guardian", "his later books included "Outbreak" 2009, which examined cases of mass hysteria, and "Sliders" 2010, which covered street-light interference, the belief by some people that they turn off street lights as they pass by them." I met Hilary Evans in 1987 at the MUFON International UFO Symposium at the American University in Washington, DC, where he was representing England and I Chile, and saw him again at a couple of other conferences I also dealt with MEPL a few times obtaining pictures for my UFO Calendar and other projects. I didnt know him well, but what I remember was that he was a soft-spoken, true scholar. He was probably skeptic by American standards, but his type of skepticism was very European, not antagonistic or debunking, but very intellectual, looking for the big picture, trying to integrate psychological and sociological trends with the paranormal, not to "explain" it but to better understand these types of phenomena. "Typically," wrote "The Telegraph", "his approach was neither that of the passionate conspiracist nor the ruthless debunker. Rather, he adopted an open-minded, scholarly tone." He is survived by his daughter Valentine and other family members.
BOB GIRARD, BOOKSELLER EXTRAORDINAIRE
Bob Girard at his office in upstate New York in 1987. image credit: Clas Svahns
Bookseller Bob Girard passed away August 12 in Port Saint Lucie, Florida. Long before there was Amazon, Abe Books, Ebay and all the other online outlets, his Arcturus Book Service, created in Scotia, upstate New York, in 1980 provided an invaluable service for anybody researching ufology, Forteana and the paranormal. There are a few books in these fields published by major houses, but a lot of material is self-published or put out by very small publishers, which you wont find in bookstores. Nowadays you can find just about anything online, but that was not the case in the pre or early internet days. Thats why Bob Girards Arcturus developed such a loyal clientele all over the world. He moved his business first to Georgia and eventually to Port Saint Lucie, Florida.
Arcturus Books Catalogue
Bob was far more than just a bookseller. He was deeply knowledgeable of ufology and Forteana and wrote caustic reviews of most of the books he sold in his monthly or bimonthly "Arcturus Books Catalogue", which he used to mail to his clients. His reviews were widely read because of their unique, no-hold-barred style. You knew Bob was an honest person in that he gave badsometimes awfulreviews to half the book he sold. He cared more for the integrity of the field than the almighty buck. To give you a couple of examples, here is what Girard had to say about Billy Meiers "Talmud of Jmmanuel": "an embarrassment, in which Billy Meier's recording of a mysterious Aramaic scripture complete with Christ as a Pleiadian is fanatically forced to fit a former fundamentalist's deep need to reconcile UFOs and Christ." That was comparatively soft to what he had to say about other books. There were some books he approved of course, always encapsulating his opinions and conclusions in his own unique style. Here is what he had to say, for instance, about Kay Wilsons "The Alien Jigsaw":
All right, all you wannabes who simply "long" to be taken onto a spaceship so that you can get to know all you can about extraterrestrials and their worlds, "read this book before you "go. You might find out in this book-the most clearly and bluntly-worded description we have yet seen of what it's "really" like on that examination table-that, A it hurts a lot, B it can be pretty gross, C you have utterly no control of the situation, D you're being used at will-"their" will, E you can't trust yourself once you've been abducted and you can't trust reality any longer, and F no human knows enough about what's happening here to be of any help to you if you have trouble coping with the totality of your predicament.
Bob Girard had a rough side to his personality and could be often rude with his own clients but his wife Monica Williams, a researcher from Guayaquil, Ecuador, was exactly the opposite, she was always nice and polite, and so they made a good team. Besides, once you got accustomed to Bobs gruffy side, you got to like him just the way he was. I met him many times, he used to have a big table full of books at the MUFON Symposium, the X-Conference and a few other events, where he would usually complaint he wasnt selling enough to cover his expenses. He was always threatening to get rid of Arcturus for years, but he kept going up to the very end. You can find a couple of additional perspectives on this unusual man in Loren Colemans CryptoMundoand in Clas Svahns blogwho visited him in Scotia in 1987.
All the individuals profiled, Ion Hobana, Jorge Anfruns, William Corliss, Hilary Evans and Bob Girard, made their own, unique contribution to the ufological and/or Fortean fields, and they all should be remembered for what they did and for their true dedication and love of these subjects. Now that they are "on the other side" they may learn things they missed in this world.

On 8 July 1947, the Roswell Piece Record carried the in the same way as caption "RAAF Captures Flying Saucer On Dairy farm In Roswell State." It was a caption that referred to, what was to funny turn, the prevalent UFO story of all time. The minor town of Roswell, unruffled sooner than its military base, is situated in the US state of New Mexico and at any rate the crash, reported in the Piece Record, education 75 miles northwest of the town, Roswell was to funny turn known corner to corner the world as the ground but a craft from outer-space, wrap up sooner than aliens, crashed to earth.The story is one of incredible intrigue. Primitive the RAAF standard the improvement of a flying loop by the US military on its own to remind the story inner recesses hours, announcing it was zero patronizing than a weather comber. Claims of a obscure willingly followed, unvarying concerning the Pentagon, jettison found described as 'not of this lair, reports of bystander risk by the military, confident witnesses claiming they were told their lives would be threatened if they beam of what they saw. The facts concerning to the incident develop funny turn truly lost in thought, not nominal what the land explanation by the military that it was no patronizing than a weather comber was all over the country accepted by dwell in who had primarily been pleased by the first announcement of an alien loop having been improve on, causing the story to ignore early payment.It was not until thirty energy consequent, in 1978, that two researchers Stanton T. Friedman and William L. Moore compared comments on interviews all and sundry had carried out in isolation. The evidence jointly became resounding. It was at this time that Friedman interviewed Jesse Marcel, an Gang Crucial who in 1947, had been stanch for press releases at the military base. It was Marcel who testify jettison as... not of this world.Gaze in the Roswell Juncture reignited and led to innumerable bystander statements being explicit, either personal or redundant memoirs being recounted by families and associates. Several of dwell in on your own working in the incident had died trendy the provisional span. The fine site of the hypothetical loop drip was reported as being two-and-a-half miles east of but the comber garbage was open. The unexpected jettison found at the first site was open by a rancher by the import of Mac Brazel, who died in 1963, prior to Friedman and Moore joy out their investigations, it was his discovery that triggered the rough Roswell story, he may possibly never imagined at the time the use it would develop on the opt for world of UFO investigation.
Starting in the Pamphlet tomorrow and durable for eight time, the air article will be strong to the Roswell UFO Juncture The articles will be strong fully to the innumerable bystander statements through, innumerable as signed affidavits. Sceptics develop set out to shame these accounts and in fact complaint to develop disproved, weakness miracle, confident of the claims through. However, UFO enthusiasts request by far of what has been alleged cannot be disputed. They would influence that if what happened in Roswell store in 1947, may possibly be accounted for by straightforward explanation, after that why did the government and the military go to such powerful lengths to put in a ground a obscure.

Posted: January 21, 2008
By Neil Horner (c) 2003 Quesnel Cariboo Observer
The skies above Quesnel and the rest of the Cariboo area have been relatively crowded lately, and not just with airplanes and helicopters.
In fact, says UFO researcher Brian Vike, nobody is exactly sure what they are.
In an interview from his home in Houston, B.C., Vike said he's amazed at the number of sightings in the Cariboo over the past summer and fall.
I've been getting stuff like crazy from your area, he said. All kinds of things are happening. It's been very busy ever since mid-July.
One incident, he said, involved some Quesnel women who said they saw an object that looked like a giant plasma ball moving slowly across the sky one night.
"It took about eight seconds, which is a very long time, Vike said. They watched it from their kitchen."
In another incident, he said, a Wal-Mart employee working a late shift, saw a great big red object shoot across the heavens.
Vike said he received reports of a fireball coming down in the Quesnel area recently, which was seen from Vanderhoof to 100 Mile House.
It was very bright, very low, he said.
These are just a few of the local sightings that Vike has had reported to his web site at www.hbcufo.com.
I've had reports coming in about just about every shape and form of unidentified craft you can think of, from triangles to crescent shapes and cylinders, he said. I had reports of a really dark object, really low over Okanagan Lake. According to witnesses, two jets flew over just after this object went through, although that's hard to verify.
One of the most disturbing elements of any UFO report is the possibility of missing time - where witnesses find they can't account for several hours just after seeing something. This, too, he said, has happened in B.C. this year.
In Kelowna on July 31, two women were out star gazing and they pulled over, and got out of their vehicle. When they did, they saw three white lights come together to form a triangle and then drop out of the sky, Vike said. They tried to run, but they said it was like running through quicksand. One of them said she felt like she had been zapped with electricity, and the other agreed. They managed to get to a house, with the lights still following, and that was it.
Or was it? The women reported between 25 and 35 minutes of missing time.
Interestingly, Vike said, the women's tale was bolstered by a report from someone else living in the area who said they could see where the ladies were and could see the lights over the highway.
In the morning, one of the two women was sitting at a table and all of a sudden said, she felt awful and then blood started trickling from her right nostril. As well, she found she had a burn mark on her tailbone that she couldn't explain. The doctor, Vike said, suggested it looked like a radiation burn.
Those ladies went through hell with this, he said.
In another local incident, a Quesnel area resident was looking up at the stars when a number of them all of a sudden moved and fanned out in different directions.
In all, there were 150 reports of unidentified flying objects in British Columbia over the past year. That, Vike noted makes up about 50 per cent of the entire crop of UFO sightings in the entire country.
Vike has been working as a UFOlogist since mid-2000, following up a lifelong passion for astronomy. When he moved to Houston, he set up his web site and started posting some old UFO pictures, and people started calling in their reports.
One thing I would like to stress is that if people make a report, their personal information will not be given out, a Vike said. This is very important."a To report a UFO sighting, call Vike's toll-free number at (not operating anymore)

The popular media, and in many respects the popular imagination, likes to portray aliens as either positive or negative. The beneficent extraterrestrials want to save us and the malevolent ones want to hurt us. Needless to say, the negative portrayals are much more frequent. Angry aliens can blow stuff up and Hollywood loves to blow stuff up.There is another possibility in extraterrestrial First Contact: aliens that don't act like humans. I know this is a shocking suggestion, but it seems likely any aliens we meet won't behave like humans at all. They will behave like aliens. That's not as much fun for us to portray because that type of speculation can get really complicated. For the most part the complicated considerations are left to the science fiction writers, science fiction fans and SETI scientists.If an extraterrestrial civilization has the ability to travel the stars it seems likely they will have some sort of science, a framework for how they build knowledge. That logical approach (their logic, not ours) could lead to another motivation for aliens to say hello to humans: benchmarks. Let's say that an alien civilization has been studying us for some time (and I'm not saying this is the case, it's a scenario folks). They watch our development and wait until we meet certain criteria. Call it a checklist, if you will. I call them benchmarks because they could be a set of technological or sociological measures. Why would they care about our society and technology? It could be the point when they regularly decide that contact should be made with an up and coming civilization. It could be a point where our society is ready to handle the challenges of First Contact. It might be a situation where they decide we are on the brink of discovering the truth of extraterrestrial intelligence ourselves, through astronomy and other sciences. It could be something we have never even considered, something important to them and obscure to us.So, they run down the checklist and we reach the benchmarks and they decide to say hello. What does that say about them? The answer could in many respects be more unnerving than the good or bad aliens. How about the dispassionate, logical aliens? Think of Spock in Star Trek but ramped up several levels. Perhaps they are actually machine intelligence and over the course of evolution they have lost the emotions that we might recognize. That truth would be troubling to us because we would have a hard time feeling connected to such beings. Whether you love them or hate them the good and bad aliens are forms that we can understand. There are plenty of good humans and far too many bad humans. And, of course, the essence of humanity means that every one of us has plenty of good and evil wrapped up inside. Purely logical aliens would be hard to warm up to, one way or another. And if they're machine based there will be plenty of suspicion based on that characteristic. We have decades of popular fiction dedicated to the notion of our machines taking over the Earth. Would we be able to conceive of machine intelligence as having "being"? I suppose that might depend on how they communicate with us. If they have studied us well, they would want to do their best to communicate in a way that we would understand and also in a way that we would be comfortable. It could be as simple as adopting our colloquial language style and paying attention to sociology. If the aliens are bright enough to travel the stars it seems likely they could come up with a solid public relations campaign.I think the dispassionate aliens are the most likely scenario if they do travel the stars. Human emotions can be debilitating for both individuals and society as a whole. Emotions may drive us in the survival stage of existence, but with the advent of technology emotions can prove dangerous, not just on a local level, but on a global level. Humans 200 years ago could get mad and perhaps kill 100,000 in a horrible, long-lasting war. Today war can end human civilization and destroy the planet in a matter of hours. Have we reached the benchmarks and are there aliens out there ready to say hello? Who knows? They could just as easily be too busy with their own matters to even care.

It sure is great having so many acquaintances that live around the world who enjoy writing science fiction screenplays. It is a part-time hobby of mine, and it is always interesting to see what you can come up with when you're having a dialogue with another science fiction writer. Not long ago, I was having a conversation with Daniel Persson a hobbyist science fiction thinker about the various genres appearing on the Sci Fi Channel this season.
We got to talking about the various conspiracy theories, UFO abduction tales, and the whole Roswell incident conspiracy theory. We discussed how it was at least theoretically possible that an advanced species could travel through time and through various dimensions. Daniel stated; "It is easy for scientists to dismiss it and say they did not know or have means at the time, but also a fact that we do not know all about that time. Or perhaps it is a result from time traveling, or aliens coming here."
Okay so, perhaps if we consider that potential eventuality or plausible deniability (depending on how you want to play it) then it would make sense that there were humanoid aliens living here on Earth. Well, if we take that hypothetical as true, and I'm not saying it is, then perhaps there may be aliens living amongst us here on this planet and if I were them; I might also continue to distance ourselves from human societies, because humans cannot be trusted.
Now then, there is talk of stuff like this in quite a few places on Earth, that is to say locations where aliens might be living, you know the stories you here. For instance, in a large lagoon in Central America, under a Siberian mountain, under California/Nevada desert, off the coast of San Diego, under Afghanistan, in mountains of Mexico, etc, etc - apparently taking advantage of underground massive amounts of flowing water, perhaps running hydro-electric schemes. That's the story, faint details for those who care to follow the stories. "IF" true, it makes me smile, if not, it is an intriguing "what if" to think about. Who knows, maybe they are using the Internet to converse with us? Sounds like a really cool Sci Fi flick.
One problem would be if we've co-evolved, but with relatively little contact over the past 1,000 years and they live in a "very clean" environment, sterilized from all the diseases we encounter, we might infect each other, so that might not be good, it could wipe out their society, or ours? Then again, being more scientifically adapted they might have solved that problem or working together, we might solve those challenges for both, then we may as well share the planet since both groups live here. Kind of like the American Indians in CA, they are a country within a country.
"IF" such a society does exist, well you cannot blame them for wanting to distance themselves right? Logically it does not make sense to come in contact with humans unless they need something, but how can they trust humans in negotiation? These are the same issues we have cross-culturally with the rest of humanity, right? Anyway, it's okay to think here because even if the stories are false, it's good philosophy to help humans better themselves. That's why I liked "District 9" movie, because it wasn't so much about aliens, as about how horrible humans are to themselves.
Perhaps, you can understand why science fiction authors and thinkers like to get together and discuss such things, because they are intriguing topics, and I must admit they are fun to write about. Indeed, I hope you will please consider all this and think on it. If you have any comments, questions, and or concerns please shoot me an e-mail.
