BIO: Jack Sliwa is originally from the Boston area, he earned a BS in Mechanical Engineering from Northeastern University in Boston, Mass. and then an MS in Materials Science from Stanford University in Palo Alto, California. While at Northeastern University Jack did a CO-OP at the Charles Stark Draper Labs (CSDL) in Cambridge, Mass. where he worked to design and test Inertial Navigation Instruments. He was selected as CO-OP of the year by the late Dr Draper, Prof. Emeritus of MIT, inventor of Inertial Navigation and founder of Draper Labs. That experience also got me interested in related subjects such as propulsion, communication and sensors of all types.
Jack then moved to California to attend Stanford and spent 40 years thereafter beginning with Silicon Valley labs and companies such as XEROX-PARC as a Member of the Research Staff-I.C and MEMs Fabrication processes.
Jack would describe himself as a now-retired broad based Technologist with 150 patents and more pending in technical areas such as integrated circuit structures and process integration, MEMs, imaging of several types including ultrasound, a variety of display technologies, high-performance microelectronic packaging, thermal control, failure analysis, microscopy of all types, surgical devices, catheters, sensors and transducers. His job descriptions as time progressed ranged from Sr. Engineer, Member of the Research Staff, Sr. Director of Technology Development and V.P of Transducer Technology.
Jack’s interest in UAP/UFOs was prompted by reading a range of credible authors and reports including Jaques Vallee, Olavo Fontes of Brazil, The Black Vault Site, the French COMETA Report, APRO Bulletins, FSR Journals, MUFON Journals, NICAP Periodicals and accounts of the McMinnville, Pascagoula, Oloron and the torrent of blatant French 1954 cases. Further motivators for me were and are the extensive AFU.se site, the NOUFORS (M. Deschamps, Canada) site and the superb Isaac Koi British site. Most recently he read the Dave Marler book “Triangular UFOs-An Estimate of the Situation” as well as the Malcolm Robinson Books “UFO Case Files of Scotland” Volumes 1&2.
Jack did have one UFO sighting decades ago of a disk UFO doing a hockey-stick dive into NASA Ames Research Center and disappearing in Mountain View California. He reported it in a carefully prepared case report and drawing to MUFON.
About 10 years ago in his spare time Jack began assembling a database of UAP/UFO cases and related materials as well as relevant technical articles having a bearing on his own or on his initiated team-explanations herein. That database is about 2.3 Terabytes in size and growing and is computer-searchable using complex and multiple parallel boolean search terms. It has been and will continue to be instrumental in preparing these explanations.
A few items that were not discussed in any detail:
1) Regarding propulsion-just as for angel-hair and the “falling-leaf” behaviors there is enough evidence and clues in the sighting database(s) to redirect propulsion research in the right direction. Existing efforts, including the zero-point energy approaches, zero-mass approaches and the NASA effort, are probably noble dedicated logical and admirable efforts yet still dead ends. I know that will irritate some folks-particularly some academics with purely academic experience and contracts with the DOD.
2) WRT angel hair-I did not emphasize enough that upon earth entry the agglomerated films are reduced in viscosity from their interstellar radiation-baked hardness/thickness. That makes them suddenly spinnable. There are several ways this viscosity reduction can happen such as a) water absorption wherein the water’s hydrogen atoms break the p-bonds of the hydrocarbon chains, b) warmer temperatures, c) oxygen/ozone attack which produces both oxidized fragments and unoxidized byproducts with a net viscosity reduction, c) water absorption macroscopically-it is known that many (NOT all) interstellar/atmospheric hydrocarbons ARE water soluble, d) the establishment of the plasma field provides sufficient electric field gradient as opposed to the vacuum of space
3) What would happen to agglomerated angel hair in a vacuum (eg on the moon): Assuming the UAP has not entered an atmosphere (per (2) above) then even in a vacuum there would probably be no spinning or sublimation. Thus the film agglomerates on long interstellar trips. IF you suddenly applied a vacuum to an electrospinning UAP IN our atmosphere then in that case all the hair and raw agglomerate would quickly evaporate
4) Slag, long reported from UFOs (e.g. Maury Island supposed non-incident) is likely angel hair matted upon UAPs and thermally burned. It turns out plasmas can accelerate regular thermal combustion and there is much research on applications for that to reduce pollution or generate energy more efficiently.
5) The orange color or many ORBs (in particular) and UAPs are likely from plasma-aided combustion. It has been long known that orange colors are strongly generated by soot particulate as in a simple candle flame. You don’t necessarily need a plasma but it will only help the orange intensity. Recall the hundreds of cases wherein people saw wavy “flames” on the surface of an orb or UAP. (I am not talking about fake or imagined orbs caused by water droplets, insects or fog in photos)
6) Petit-Rechain is in French-Speaking BELGIUM, not in France
7) There was an incident in the 1950s in Philadelphia I recall wherein in the early morning hours several foot patrol officers came upon a large blob (feet in diameter, maybe a hundred pounds) of glowing gel or goo which twitched. It was on a sidewalk. I think the old lame movie the Blob was initiated by this event. Anyway this blob was likely thick UAP agglomerate which was thrown off a UAP and fell to the ground like a frisbee. Note that the entire blob sublimated I think in a couple of hours (sound familiar?). The blob also glowed (not surprising given UAP radiation exposure). The twitching in a gel can be caused by (a) shrinkage, (c) movement of electric charges. No-it wasn’t alive thank goodness. We are surrounded by evidence. We need to open our eyes.
Please have Jack on again! This guy is obviously incredibly smart but aside from that he describes things in a way a layman can understand. You can tell a lot of thought went into his theories.
Jack is a very intelligent and accomplished engineer who has over 150 patented inventions. It’s refreshing to hear his theories on UFOS especially propulsion. He brings new ideas to the table. More importantly he isn’t vague. Those explainers who say things like “UFOs ride magnetic force lines” add nothing. Jack is specific and also mindful of Newton and Einstein. He’s a breath of fresh air even for those like me who bring a lot of skepticism to the UFO discussion. When Jack talks, I listen.
