“UFO’s”

A high-ranking retired U.S. Air Force major general who once commanded a base long associated with UFO lore has been missing for nearly two weeks, and authorities are appealing to the public for help finding him, according to the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office in New Mexico.

Retired Air Force Maj. Gen. William Neil McCasland, 68, left his Albuquerque home on foot at approximately 11 a.m. February 27 and has not been in contact with family or friends since, the sheriff’s office said in a news release. His cell phone was left behind, the sheriff’s office told CNN.

US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has finally addressed the president’s announcement to release all government files related to UFOs and aliens.

Speaking at an event for the Department of War’s ‘Arsenal of Freedom’ tour on Monday, Hegseth, 45, said he intends to find out if aliens really exist, and the American people will learn the truth at the same time.

Although he admitted he never envisioned being the person put in charge of potentially revealing alien life to the world, Hegseth declared that the Department of War would fully comply with the president’s orders.

A little over eight years ago The New York Times published a story that had profound implications for the way in which the UFO topic was perceived.1 It also began, at least in the U.S., a process by which the subject became increasingly more mainstream. In this article I want to address three questions: (1) How did ufology get here? (2) Where does ufology stand now? (3) What does the future hold for ufology?

At last, we’re (probably) going to get disclosure:

Gosh. As Ross Douthat points out, we had better watch closely to see if the Department of Energy is on Trump’s list of “relevant agencies.” The DOE is where a lot of the UAP stuff has been handled.

If you haven’t already, read Diana Pasulka’s American Cosmic: UFOs, Religion, Technology, which was foundational for me in getting me to take all this seriously, for once. I just read an advance copy of her forthcoming book (July 28), The Others, and I think it’s her most important one yet. It’s only secondarily about UAPs, but is is about non-human intelligence and the future of humanity. In my view, it is not a happy story, but one that calls for people to develop their powers of discernment.

Barack Obama’s dropping of an alien bombshell – he said “they’re real” in a podcast interview – set the pulses of millions of “believers” racing at the weekend. But the former US president has since qualified his response.

In a statement on Instagram, he said his comment had been made in the heat of the moment. He had simply meant that, given the vastness of the universe, we’re unlikely to be alone. He added: “I saw no evidence during my presidency that extraterrestrials have made contact with us. Really!” Case closed? Maybe not.

For much of the early 1990s I was posted to the Ministry of Defence’s so-called “UFO Desk”. While most of our cases turned out to be misidentifications of known objects or phenomena, a small but statistically significant proportion appeared to defy conventional explanation.

The author of the piece above is Nick Pope, one of the good guys. He was just diagnosed with terminal cancer as he explains here.

I hope he follows through …

Instantaneous Acceleration – Military-Filmed UFO Footage

h/t Mauser

On Jan. 13, Vermont legislator Troy Headrick (I) proposed creating a state task force that would get to the bottom of “unidentified anomalous phenomena,” or UAPs, that appeared to be buzzing about U.S. military air bases. Days later, Helen McCaw, a former senior analyst in financial security at the Bank of England, urged the bank’s governor to prepare for possible financial collapse should the White House disclose the existence of alien intelligence.

For the most part he makes a good argument but he dismisses the Navy videos and aviator testimony a little too conveniently.

A financial crisis could be triggered by an announcement that aliens exist, according to Helen McCaw, a former policy expert of the Bank of England.

McCaw told The Times of London that politicians and bankers can’t afford to dismiss alien life, and wrote to the governor of the Bank of England, urging him to organize a contingency plan in case the White House confirms alien existence.

The night was warm and muggy over New Castle Air Force Base in Delaware, the kind of heat that clung to the metal skins of the alert fighter jets lined along the runway.

Lt. William L. Patterson of the 142nd Fighter Interceptor Squadron did not stray far from the flight line as part of the readiness posture routine for pilots in 1952: Keep the engines warm, be airborne in minutes and stay alert for the remote chance that Soviet bombers close in on the mid-Atlantic.

Then the order came: intercept unknown objects flying around the White House and Pentagon. Radar screens at nearby Washington National Airport and Andrews Air Force Base were lighting up with targets no one could identify, and they taunted restricted airspace.

The office of Chief Science Advisor Mona Nemer scrambled to justify spending more than $34,000 on a UFO survey that no parliamentarian requested, according to access-to-information records that raise fresh questions about Ottawa’s spending priorities.

Blacklock’s Reporter says internal 2024 memos show staff were instructed to come up with a rationale for the polling project as cabinet publicly pledged to rein in unnecessary expenditures.

Cheap at any price!

The foundation of science is based on the humility to learn, not the arrogance of expertise. When comet experts argued that the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS must be a familiar water-rich comet as soon as it was discovered in July, they behaved like artificial intelligence systems: only able to reflect the data sets they were trained on. For decades, the data set that established comet expertise largely comprised icy rocks in the solar system. My counterpoint is simple: humanity launched technological objects into space, so we must conclude that alien life forms could do the same. This possibility must be added to the training data set of comet experts when studying interstellar objects.

Strange flying objects are still congregating high over Sweetwater County’s Red Desert and Jim Bridger Power Plant, the sheriff’s office says.

Sweetwater County Sheriff John Grossnickle saw the drone-like flying objects with his own eyes as recently as Saturday night, his spokesman Jason Mower told Cowboy State Daily on Monday.

That marks 13 months of lighted, drone-like objects congregating, often in coordinated formations, over the Red Desert and power plant, Mower said, adding that they’re too high to shoot down from the ground level.

So, I watched the new UAP documentary The Age Of Disclosure, which you can rent on Amazon streaming. It’s not cheap — $19 to rent — but I highly recommend doing so. There is very little in the film that people like me, who have been immersed in this stuff, that is new — but it’s a great way to get the most basic information in a single place. You will note that all the people interviewed are senior government officials (e.g., Secretary of State Marco Rubio, US Senators and Congressmen), top scientists, and others. In other words, not fringe weirdos or normies interviewed on History Channel documentaries.

In my view, you cannot watch this film and deny that the UAP thing is real, and therefore extremely important. There are many questions about what it is, where it comes from, and the meaning of it all. But at this point, it takes far more of a leap of faith to believe it’s not real than the opposite.

AGE OF DISCLOSURE – Richard Dolan Reaction

Director Dan Farah grew up with aliens. As a child of the 80s and 90s, pop culture was awash with extra-terrestrial sightings. “How can you be a kid watching movies like ET and Close Encounters, TV shows like The X Files, and not end up curious about whether or not we’re alone in the universe?” he said in an interview with the Guardian. “And whether or not the US government does, in fact, hold secrets from the public.”

Farah’s exposure to otherworldly beings in fiction kickstarted an interest that’s now morphed into a professional quest, and the subject of his documentary debut The Age of Disclosure. Here, Farah makes the case that the United States has been hiding, for decades, a font of information related to UAP (unidentified anomalous phenomena) – the acronym rebrand of the stigma-ridden UFO.

Trailer – this is now playing on Prime but at 25 bucks a pop I can wait.

David Grusch interview – He now claims to have ‘read intelligence reports and viewed photo’s of aliens. No hard proof offered.
