POSSIBLE FORGOTTEN OR UNKNOWN INFORMATION
|

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
1. I can assure you the flying saucers, given that they exist, are not
|
||
constructed by any power on earth. President Harry S. Truman - Press
|
||
conference, Washington DC, April 4, 1950.
|
||
|
||
2. Based upon unreliable and unscientific surmises as data, the Air Force
|
||
develops elaborate statistical findings which seem impressive to the
|
||
uninitiated public unschooled in the fallaciec of the statistical method.
|
||
One must conclude that the highly publicized Air Force pronouncements
|
||
based upon unsound statistics serve merely to misrepreent the true
|
||
character of the UFO phenomena. Yale Scientific Magazine (Yale University)
|
||
Volume XXXVII, Number 7, April 1963
|
||
|
||
3. I feel that the Air Force has not been giving out all the available
|
||
information on the Unidentified Flying Objects. You cannot disregard so
|
||
many unimpeachable sources. John W. McCormack, Speaker of the House of
|
||
Representatives of the United States. January 1965
|
||
|
||
4. I have absolutely no idea where the UFO's come from or how they are
|
||
operated, but after ten years of research, I know they are something from
|
||
ourside our atmosphere. Dr. James E. McDonald, Professor of Atmospheric
|
||
physics, University of Arizona. 1967.
|
||
|
||
5. I've been convinced for a long time that the flying saucers are real and
|
||
interplanetary. Another words we are being watched by beings from outer
|
||
space. Albert M. Chop, deputy public relations director, National
|
||
Aeronautics and Space Administration, and former United States Air Force
|
||
spokesman for Project Blue Book.
|
||
|
||
6. The least improbable explanation is that these things UFO's are artificial
|
||
and controlled. My opinion for some time has been that they have an
|
||
extraterrestrial origin. Dr. Maurice Bilot, one of the world's leading
|
||
aerodynamicists and mathematical physicists. Life, April 7, 1952
|
||
|
||
7. Of course the flying saucers are real and they are interplanetary.
|
||
Air Chief Marshal Lord Dowding, commanding officer of the Royal Air Force
|
||
of Great Britain, August 1954
|
||
|
||
Comments: It would seem that many people thought there was something to
|
||
all of this stuff called UFO's and if this is all true, could it
|
||
be that all of us are being mislead. One thing is for sure the
|
||
history of this subject matter is being forgotten and there is over
|
||
40 years of it. It should be very clear to many people that this
|
||
at least is true and if so then why ? I must admit this does bother
|
||
me to think that we think so little of ourselves not to care about
|
||
whats real and whats not. The old story is why should anyone care
|
||
unless there is some money to be made or does this really concern
|
||
a layman who does not know anything anyway are so they say. but
|
||
who are they ? This is what we should start finding out and then
|
||
maybe we will be a little closer to the problem. There has been
|
||
to many good men who put themselves on the line for such a good
|
||
cause, I believe we call this truth or have we forgotten this too.

Times Staff Reporter
|
||
|
||
NASA should get out of the business of launching spacecraft and let
|
||
private industry take over before astronomical costs cancel the space program
|
||
forever, according to one member of a presidential commission on U.S. space
|
||
strategy.
|
||
|
||
Unless we can redically lower the cost of reaching space, it's possible that
|
||
this country may not go, said David Webb, a space development consultant and
|
||
member of President Reagan's National Commission on Space, in an interview
|
||
here yesterday.
|
||
|
||
Webb will address the Space Development Conference at 3:30 p.m. today in the
|
||
Westin Hotel. The Commission delivered its recommendations to the president
|
||
Friday, although parts of the controversial report had earlier been leaked to
|
||
trade journals. The report describes layers of space stations between the
|
||
earth, moon and mars to be built by 2017.
|
||
|
||
The cost of putting objects into space must be slashed to noe-tenth its
|
||
present level, from $2,000 per pound, to $200 per pound, to make further space
|
||
exploitation possible, Webb said. That means that the private sector should
|
||
be more heavily involved in designing and opwerating space craft.

Close-Up Mystery Air Force Crash
|
||
|
||
Hush Fuels Reports That Doomed Plane Was "Stealth"
|
||
|
||
Knlght-Ridder Newspapers and Reuters:
|
||
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
Bakersfield, Calif. - Out on Rancheria Road stands a roadblock manned
|
||
by two soldiers wearing "sunglasses", green-and-brown camouflage outfits
|
||
and black M-16 rifles slung over their backs.
|
||
|
||
Beyond that roadblock, out in the sun-bleached hills about 12 miles from
|
||
Bakersfield, is a mystery.
|
||
|
||
Early last Friday, something fell out of the sky and into a canyon in the
|
||
Sequoia National Forest, crashing on Kenneth and Agnes Mebane's ranch about
|
||
4 miles south of the roadblock. It is something the Air Force wishes no one
|
||
else knew about. And they intend to do everything they can to keep others
|
||
from finding out.
|
||
|
||
I haven't asked them anything, says 63-year-old Kenneth Mebane of the soldiers
|
||
who moved onto his property without asking permission shortly after the 2 A.M.
|
||
incident.
|
||
|
||
Then, echoing many who live nearby, Mebane adds, I think that's their business.
|
||
Officiallt, the Air Force says only that one of its planes crashed and that its
|
||
pilot, Maj. Ross Mulhare, was killed.
|
||
Military analysts suspect the plane was one of a number of top-secret Stealth
|
||
fighters designed to be virtually invisible to enemy radar. The Pentagon
|
||
refuses to acknowledge that any such planes exist, although it is known the Air
|
||
Force currently has three Stealth programs in operation.
|
||
|
||
The plane also is suspected to have come from nearby Edwards Air Force Base,
|
||
although the military won't comfirm or deny that. I can't say where it was
|
||
based at or where it was going, say Air Force Lt. Col. Jerry Guess, who is
|
||
stationed at Edwards and who is the only authorized dpokesman at the crash
|
||
scene. So much secrecy is ironic in light of a pending congressional
|
||
investigation into reports that the Lockheed Corp., major contractor for the
|
||
F-19 Stealth fighter, may have lost hundreds of documents involved with its
|
||
Stealth research.
|
||
|
||
The plane was first sighted by a pilot in a small commercial airplane, who
|
||
radioed the Federal Aviation Administration in Los Angeles. The FAA notified
|
||
the Forest Service, which called in Kern County firefighters from Bakersfield
|
||
to put out a 120 acre fire sparked by the crash. Fire Capt. Darrell Tiede
|
||
and his crew from the Niles station house arrived before the military and saw
|
||
the wreckage. But Tiede refuses to talk about it. A reporter for the
|
||
Bakersfield Californian says one firefighter described the crash site as molten
|
||
iron. But the reporter says the man's supervisor quickly told him not to say
|
||
anymore.
|
||
|
||
Kern County Fire Capt. Bill Alexander says all the secrecy can cause problems.
|
||
Air Force personnel shooed firefighters away from the area before they had
|
||
completely mopped up the blaze, he says. A Kern County "coroner's investigator
|
||
was dispatched to the ranch, but turned back to Bakersfield when military
|
||
officials said they were taking care of the remains. The Air Force refuses to
|
||
say where the pilot was taken."
|
||
|
||
While the cleanup continues, the Air Force has moved into an office at
|
||
Meadows Field, Bakersfield's public airport. And it has been flying helicopters
|
||
and twin-engine planes in and out of the field over the past six days. If the
|
||
plane that crashed was a Stealth model, the Air Force has to be concerned that
|
||
no debris is left in the area. Not only is the sleek, highly aerodynamic shape
|
||
of a Stealth fighter believed important in eluding radar, but the materials
|
||
used to build the plane must be of a special kind to absorb,rather than reflect
|
||
, enemy radar. Thus the military would have to make sure that every chunk of
|
||
the plane's body was removed.

REAGAN TO GORBACHEV: " THREAT FROM ET'T WOULD UNITE EARTH "
|
||
|
||
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
||
President Reagan revealed wednesday that his discussions with soviet
|
||
leader Mikhail Gorbachev, touched not only on "Star Wars," but the
|
||
extraterrestrial.
|
||
|
||
In an address to students at Fallston High School here, reahan departed
|
||
from his prepared remarks to say that in his private discussions with
|
||
Gorbachev at last months Geneva summit, he noted that "we're all god
|
||
children.
|
||
|
||
I couldn't help but say to him just think how easy his task and mine
|
||
might be in these meetings that we held if suddenly if there was a threat
|
||
to this world from some other species from another planet outside in the
|
||
universe, Reagan said the president went on to say that such an event
|
||
would force himself and Gorbachev to forget all the little local differences
|
||
that we have between our countries and they would find out that we really
|
||
are all human beings here on this earth together.
|
||
|
||
Well, I don't suppose we can wait for some alien race to come down and
|
||
threaten us, Reagan added. But I think that between us we can bring about
|
||
that realization.
|
||
|
||
The President then ended his remarks, without giving his young audience a
|
||
clue as to how Gorbachev reponded.
