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.
