Abducted by Hairy Dwarves in Brazil

admin

by UFO Author, Charles Lear 

The history of civilian UFO/flying saucer research in Brazil goes back as far as that of the United States. The first organization to be formed there was Civil de Objetos Aéreos Nao Identitificados (Civil Investigation Center for Unidentified Aerial Objects) founded by Húlvio Brant Aleixo in Belo Horizonte in 1954. Aleixo was a professor of psychology at the Catholic University of Minas Gerais and was an active investigator for much of his life. He was one of the people Bob Pratt worked with when he did his investigations for his 1996 book UFO Danger Zone, and according to his biography in a memorial (he seems to have passed away on World UFOlogy Day, June 24, 2005) posted January 9, 2006, on the UFO Magazine website,  he was a consultant on UFOs for the Brazilian Air Force. Documents describing a case he reported to the Brazilian Ministerio Da Aeronautica in 1974 can be found online. He was the principal investigator of a reported abduction said to have occurred over a period of approximately four and a half days (109 hours) from May 4, 1969, to May 9, 1969, in Bebedouro, (not the municipality of São Paulo) an area over 100 miles north of Belo Horizonte, and that is the case we’ll be looking at in this blog.

Bowing Out of UAP Crossfire

admin

by Martin Willis

Thank you all for participating in the Thursday, UAP Crossfire Show!

A recent listener survey revealed that a majority of listeners thought I should distance myself from UAP Crossfire, mostly because of rants and politics. We are a divided country and if you speak on a show like this of either Trump or Biden | Republicans or Democrats, YOU ALIENATE HALF THE LISTENERS. Case in point; in some of the messages I have been getting; people are degrading me because of their assumptions of my political stance. I have warned the show producer repeatedly that if the show kept jumping into politics of any kind, I am out. I am not blaming this on the producer, because he has attempted to get this reeled in. Politics is not what I came to the UAP Crossfire to talk about. In my opinion, if there is not a direct link relating to UFOs/UAP that includes politics, it has no business on the show. The co-host I have an issue with, and everyone else has a right to their opinions. I respect freedom of speech, but there are other suitable platforms for political opinions. I will probably run some type of show on some Thursdays at 7:00PM ET. Crossfire shall continue with someone taking my place: https://kgradb.com/uap-crossfire/
THANK YOU FOR READING.

The First Scientific UFO Field Study

admin

by Author, Charles Lear 

UFOs were big news in 1973. Besides the Pascagoula and the Coyne incidents, there were flaps all over the United States. One in Piedmont, Missouri, got started that year in late February with UFO reports involving cars stalling and radio interference. These caught the attention of a physics professor, Harley D. Rutledge, who was chairman of that department at Southeast Missouri State University at Cape Girardeau. Rutledge became fascinated to the point that he put together an investigation team of scientists, arranged funding, and ended up spending more than seven years observing unexplained lights while collecting data and photographs. In late 1973, he gave a presentation of what he and the group had gathered up to that point at the fall meeting (attended by John Schuessler of the Mutual UFO Network) of the Missouri section of the American Association of Physics Teachers. Rutledge finally published a book describing the investigation titled Project Identification: The First Scientific Field Study of UFO Phenomena in 1981. Read more →

UFOs After Project Blue Book

admin

by Author, Charles Lear 

Seamans with Wernher von Braun and President Kennedy at Cape Canaveral 1963

On December 17, 1969, a news release from the Office of Assistant Secretary of Defense (Public Affairs) announced the termination of Project Blue Book. According to the document, Secretary of the Air Force Robert C. Seamans Jr. stated in a memo to Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. John D. Ryan that “the continuation of Project Blue Book cannot be justified either on the ground of national security or in the interest of science.” An early indication that this was coming was Dr. J. Allen Hynek, a scientific consultant for Project Blue Book for the entirety of its existence and Projects Sign and Grudge before it, finding out that there was nothing for him in the budget for the upcoming year. Of course, not everyone agreed with the Air Force’s decision and people continued seeing UFOs, but they no longer had an official organization prepared to take reports. Read more →

Steven Callahan’s survival in a life raft in the Atlantic Ocean, which lasted 76 days, was a staggering ordeal alone at sea in an inflatable raft. His survival is a near miracle, he hung on and was determined it was not his time. His book, Adrift is a memoir of the event: http://amzn.to/2lvDp1e
