MY UFO ULTRASOUND ARTICLE IN THE A.P.R.O. BULLETIN DID ELICIT some feedback, though not all of it favorable. A reader in California wondered what my "problem" was as he added content to my theories (see letter). I wrote Coral and asked what she specifically thought my "problem" was, and her response was that she didn't know, either, that's why she forwarded the writer's letter on to me.
In the meantime, the Lorenzens were about to embark on a trip to Santa Ana, CA for a UFO symposium, where they would also discuss the ultrasound possibilities with others. The Western Symposium pamphlet is shown here, along with an APRO form letter stressing the need for publicity. Pay special attention to the bottom where APRO admits that the negative Colorado UFO project results have deterred sighting reports and sightings are diminished.
It may easily be interpreted from this turn of events that the demise of Project Blue Book, based upon Colorado's report, suddenly gave the public fewer outlets for reporting UFO experiences. When Blue Book collapsed, the public was advised primarily to report UFOs to their local law enforcement agencies -- a preposterous suggestion that would burden police officers who knew nothing about UFO investigations and were already up to their armpits in responding to and solving crimes. In time, especially with the advent of Dr. J. Allen Hynek's influential Center for UFO Studies in the seventies, police agencies at last felt more comfortable in passing reports along to a civilian UFO agency. NICAP and APRO had also enjoyed a good relationship with law enforcement departments, of course, but Dr. Hynek's reputation as both former chief Air Force UFO consultant and professional astronomer allowed him "star status" in the eyes of many, and his ever-evolving public statements supporting the scientific aspect of the UFO phenomenon didn't hurt, either.
By 1972, the possible relationship between UFO activity and ultrasound was apparently taken quite seriously by some in the scientific community. In Vol. 2, No. 5 of Gordon I.R. Lore, Jr's "UFO Research Newsletter" (Wash., DC), Dr. Robert F. Creegan, professor of philosophy at the State University of NY at Albany, wrote an article about scientists in San Diego and Seattle providing instrumentation to conduct UFO field studies. "These will involve attempts at triangulation of positions," stated Creegan, "studies of light diffraction and possible polarization, attempts to detect ultrasound, and use of magnetic variometers." James Lorenzen, head of APRO, and Dr. J. Allen Hynek coordinated the project initially in conjunction with "The National Enquirer", which had convened a "blue ribbon panel" of scientists and other professionals to determine the best evidence for UFOs. I personally am unaware of any immediate findings relative to ultrasound, though, admittedly, doing field studies on a phenomenon as uncooperative as the UFO is an obstacle from the outset.

He's Baaaaaaack! Dr. Steven Greer federation next Dr. Meg about UFO surface shine, cover ups and the reality of this phenomenon!
Dr. Greer says: Start in 1993, I started an struggle that was designed to have an effect firsthand military and government witnesses to UFO trial and projects, as well as other evidence to be recycled in a shared disclosure. From 1993, we consumed great time and rites briefing the Clinton Government, amid CIA Supervisor James Woolsey, leader military officials at the Pentagon, and chosen members of Compilation, among others. In April of 1997, finer than a dozen such government and military witnesses were assembled in Washington DC for briefings next Congressmen, Pentagon officials and others. At hand, we precisely requested chatty Congressional Hearings on the field. None were coming.
In 1998, we set out to "privatize" the disclosure company by raising the buttress to cartridge, edit, and farm out over 100 military and government witnesses to UFO trial and projects. We had ballpark that between 2 million and 4 million would be attractive to do this on a macro origin. By Revered of 2000 basically about 5% of this tome had been raised but we dangerous to rule commencing anyway inhibit was deemed reckless limitation the religious issues lively voguish. So chief in Revered we began creating the Appreciate Annals Indictment and we set about the post of migrant all over the world to addressees these witnesses in civic guarantee digital video format. Due to the severe weakness of buttress, this struggle was mainly in position by for myself and a few other volunteers all but from Revered 2000 completed December 2000.
Start in late December 2000, I began cutting over 120 hours of raw digital video keep a note at mansion. I must feature that I am a medical doctor and not an editor. At a standstill, from late December 2000 until late February 2001 the 120 hours were reduction first to 33 hours of chosen keep a note and subsequently 18 hours of super-select keep a note. The 33 hours of chosen keep a note were dubbed to audiotape and transcribed substantial in just about 1200 pages of keep a note transcripts..." (not on on www.disclosureproject.org)
Here and there in his book: In one of the most surprising and distressing authentic stories habitually told, Dr. Greer relates his own personal experiences next Space peoples and the describing of limitless comprehension commencing his childhood. From his sighting of a UFO at an to the fore age, to his unanticipated near-death tolerate at age 17, to his unscrambling of the secret compartment length of track the improper international company energy and UFO - related projects, to his meetings next a CIA Supervisor, US Senators, heads of state and royal family - you wish be moved, dumbfounded and open-minded as you make out completed this memoir.
Controller next Dr. Greer as he takes you trendy the corridors of secret heaviness - ultra the government as we command it - to a enigmatic compartment of power-mad controllers. Survey what their put forward is, and how they plan to sort their goals- and what we inevitability do NOW to alter the course of human history.

To the same degree we're waiting for have a spat of our latest analyses of Canadian UFO data into 2010 and 2011, let's manner at what the latest poll has to say about UFOs.A poll released yesterday by the Homespun Geographic Course found that 36 per cent of Americans mistrust UFOs exist. The poll was conducted by Kelton Look into for NatGeo as a promotion policy media hype the new NatGeo show "Chasing UFOs" that premieres this week. They did the stare at amongst May 21 and May 29, 2012, "through write to invitations and online surveys." It was noted portray was a sampling descend of 2.9 points.http://www.livescience.com/21216-americans-ufo-belief.html The stare at noted that 80 million Americans (36 per cent) are sure UFO exist, 17 per cent do not maintain they exist, and 48 per cent aren't sure.The first poll to ask the fantastically (or enjoy, I maintain) liability was from end to end by Gallup in 1966, and found that 46 per cent dimple UFOs were real, equally 29 per cent dimple UFOs were light the toddler of imaginations. Gallup's re-poll in 1971 found 51 percent in favour and 28 per cent wary. In 1978, the percentages were 57 per cent and 27 per cent, each. In 1987, Gallup found 49 percent dimple UFOs were "real," and 30 percent dimple they were make-believe, equally 21 per cent were "not sure."A Canadian Gallup Seek in 1974 found that 53 per cent of Canadians dimple UFOs were "real," and 26 per cent dimple UFOs were light in people's imaginations. In 1978, a matching poll was conducted, and the put off had shifted dexterously to 57 per cent in favour and 22 for skill.Specialized Look into Periodical in 1971 found the lot in life of persons who mistrust UFOs really existed was 54 per cent, equally the non-believers were at 31 per cent. An Impression Look into stare at in 1978 found that 35 per cent of respondents "believed" in UFOs, equally 52 per cent dimple UFOs were "real." (An interesting fame.)The latest NatGeo poll both reported that about 11 per cent of Americans mistrust they've seen a UFO. And 20 per cent say they charge revel who has seen one. This is overall trustworthy in addition to all after everything else polls, by means of persons by means of Canada.The Nat Geo poll both reported that about 79 per cent of Americans maintain the government is detention information on UFOs from the community, and, alike expert snooping, that 55 percent (or expert than partially of all Americans) maintain that Men In Black are real and are sinister witnesses of UFOs.Subsequently the Kelton types went definitely off the spicy end. They asked, if you did go with an alien, what would you do? 22 per cent would befriend the alien; 15 would run for the hills; 13 would devoted their doors; and two percent would go on the insulting and attack.But, if aliens did attack Obtain, who would you call? 21 per cent would unblemished the Hulk; 12 per cent would unblemished Batman; and only 8 per cent would unblemished Spider-Man. The liability leading up to this asked if aliens are expert open to exist than superheroes, vampires and zombies. This seems a bit off-base, because most astronomers maintain alien life is open in the universe, so that type aliens and The Avengers is not methodical.The most complete way of thinking, up till now, was that 65 per cent of Americans mistrust that Barack Obama would be have time out non-discriminatory to feel an alien invasion than Milt Romney. Next, 68 per cent of women dimple Obama would be the best to shrivel in addition to aliens, equally 61 per cent of men dimple so. In lexis of age differences, persons under 65 dimple Obama was the man, equally for persons over 65, Romney and Obama were tied.Whereas here and there in partially of all respondents weren't sure that UFOs existed at all, the poll shows that aliens are self-possessed on the minds of a lot of family. And on marketers, remarkably.And we haven't told you what the absolutely report put off for UFO cases in Canada are for 2010 and 2011 yet.Procrastinate tuned.
From Aura-Z magazine printed in RussiaUFO AND POLITICSSeveral Episodes in the 40-Year History of Soviet UFOlogyby Lev ChulkovMarch 1993Lev Chulkov was born in Moscow on May 5, 1938. In 1962 he graduated from the Moscow Aviation Institute. Ph.D. Chulkov specializes in Mechanics and applied mathematics. He heads the Department of UFOlogy at the Interbranch Scientific and Technological Centre of Venturing and Nontraditional Technologies "Vent." He has taken an interest in ufology since 1960. His book "The Sons of the Stars" was the first in this country to lay down the Extraterrestrial concept of UFOs."We notice a bright object high in the sky. The object is moving from north to south. We fetch three powerful binoculars from our tents. We observe a large spheroidal object glittering in the sun. It is seen clearly against the blue sky. It moves very quickly. Then we notice that the object changes its direction and moves to the Southwest where it disappears beyond the snowy Humboldt Ridge. The whole camp follows this unusual phenomenon...." (N. Roerich, "The Heart of Asia")One may think that one such sighting is a good enough impetus to start serious investigations into UFOs but academic science in this country would not study these phenomena. The position of military and civilian authorities made this kind of investigation impossible.Let us follow the course of development of ufology in this country during the last four decades.As early as the beginning of the 50's J. Stalin ordered S. Korelev to study the phenomenon of UFO but S. Korolev managed to avoid fulfilling this task.Meanwhile some enthusiastic scholars took an interest in the problem. Among them were: Yu. Fomin, A. Kazantsev, Yu. Roszius, V. Rubtsov, A. Tikhonov, P. Stolyarov, F. Zigel and others. We must make a special mention of the late Felix Zigel who died on November 20, 1988. He was an astronomer who started investigating UFOs as early as 1955 and continued these investigations courageously and productively until his very last days. He had authored over ten large volumes on ufology, none of which came out during his lifetime. He brought together informal groups of investigators, arranged expeditions to UFO landing places when the very subject was unrecognized and banned, organized collection and analysis of primary ufological data conducted a broad exchange of information with foreign scholars and appeared to a lot of different organizations and authorities trying to prove that the problem of UFOs was real and extremely significant. On November 10, 1967, Professor F. Zigel, Air Force General P. Stolyarov and Navigator V. Akkuratov were given a chance to state their case on National Television.Thousands of people from all over the country responded to that programme. Letters from eyewitnesses, often with drawings and photographs enclosed, poured into the contact address.The authorities of official bodies chose a different course of action. For instance, reports from civil pilots of UFO sightings were directed to the State Scientific-Research Institute of Civil Aviation. Lots of telegrammes came to the chief Administration of the Hydrometeorological Service. Packages of reports arrived at the Astronomical Council of the USSR Academy of Sciences. But each boss was much too fond of his chair, so all information of this type was safely stored at the bottom of drawers and in king-size vaults.During those years the Moscow Planetarium took a very negative stand on the problem of UFOs. They had a ready-made printed letter to answer numerous requests. It ran as follows:Dear Comrade:The phenomenon you observed must be connected with one of the experiments aimed at measuring the density of atmosphere at high altitudes and with launching a sodium cloud (of the type which was formed during the flights of space rockets).V. BronshtenScience ConsultantMoscow PlanetariumOn January 8, 1961, the newspaper "Pravda" carried an article entitled "Myths of Flying Saucers" which expressed Academician Artsimovich's opinion of UFOs. The article dealt the problem a crushing blow and gave a start to ridicule and persecution of UFOlogists. The noted investigator Yu. Fomin was one of the victims. He was struck off the Register of the "Znaniye" (Knowledge) Society's official lecturers.On May 17, 1967, the Initiative Group of UFO investigators (45 persons) had a meeting at the House of Aviation and Cosmonautics in Moscow. They elected Major-General P. Stolyarov their President and F. Zigel - his Deputy. In October 1967 the Manager of the House, Major-General L. Reino assisted in establishing the UFO Department of the All-Union Committee of Cosmonautics. 350 people including representatives of the mass media attended the first session of the Department on October 18, 1967.However, the Department was disbanded by Army General A. Ghetman's order late in November 1967. The State dealt ufologists a second blow.The third one came soon after, before the investigators could regain their senses: late in 1967 Academician Artsimovich initiated a resolution passed by the Department of General and Applied Physics which he was heading. The resolution condemned investigation of UFOs in this country. The leading newspaper "Pravda" followed up with the article "Flying Saucers Again?" on February 29, 1968.On February 5, 1968, the problem of UFOs was discussed at the Journalists Club in Moscow. On February 16, 1968, 13 leading designers and engineers - members of the Initiative Group - addressed a letter to A. Kosygin, Chairman of the USSR Council of Ministers. In their letter they reasoned that the problem of UFOs was real and global in its essence and proved its scientific and strategic significance.Of course the letter never reached the Prime-Minister, like none of thousands of other letters. The answer came on March 11, 1968, from Academician A. Shchukin. Each sentence in his response was a lie, and that is no exaggeration.Zigel and those who shared his ideas made another attempt to break through the "wall of silence" surrounding the problem of UFOs. They compiled a voluminous book "Inhabited Cosmos" which contained articles by the best Russian and foreign scholars on the problem. The book was being compiled at a printing house when its publication was interrupted. Academician Artsimovich interfered and 32 "seditions" articles on ufology were excluded. The manuscripts were not returned to Zigel in spite of his insistent requests. The castrated "Inhabited Cosmos" came out in 1972.In December 1976 another ufologist R. Varlamov, an ex-official of the State Committee for Science and Technology, appealed to A. Kosygin once again and suggested that scientific investigation of UFOs be organized in this country. The letter was passed over to the Expert Commission of the Department of General and Applied Physics of the USSR Academy of Sciences. The answer was an excellent example of the Soviet scientific administration's attitude to everything new. It is worth citing verbatim:"Your materials were transfered to the Department of General Physics and astronomy of the USSR Academy of Sciences. We inform you that as early as 1961 the Department's Bureau stated that:Lately, Soviet newspapers and magazines have carried reports of so-called "flying saucers," meaning various objects emitting light, which are passed for phenomena unknown to Science or for space vehicles launched from other worlds. These speculations have no scientific basis, and phenomena observed are of a well known nature. The Bureau of the Department of General Physics and Astronomy passed the following resolution on this matter:1. to entrust the General Council of the All-Union Astronomic and Geodesic Society to intensify explanatory work concerning "flying saucers;"2. to condemn the unhealthy sensationalism, being fraudulent in its character, as it deceives the population of this country;3. to request all members of the Department to fight against this unhealthy sensationalism;4. to publish an Open Letter on behalf of the Department to expose fabrications concerning "flying saucers."Expert GroupACADEMY OF SCIENCESMay 10, 1977In the same year the magazine "Zemlya i Vselennaya" (Earth and the Universe) carried an article by Professor D. Martynov of the Moscow State University called "Flying Saucers - a Test for Intellect" in which he stated "all that was based on profit, circulation, royalties, cheap renown etc." The professor tested his own intellect and failed the "examination."Meanwhile life went on. At 4 a.m. on September 20, 1977 the most spectacular unidentified object appeared over Petrozavodsk City, Russia. It gave a 12-minute show of surprising transformations. The newspaper "Sotsialisticheskaya Industriya" (Socialist Industry) wrote on September 23, 1977:"...a huge star shone brightly against black skies sending clusters of rays earthwards. The star was floating slowly towards Petrozavodsk and then spread medusa-wise over the city. It hovered continuing to pour a multitude of the finest rays over the city; it all looked like a very heavy rain. Yu. Gromov, Director of the Petrozavodsk Hydro-Meteorological Observatory told a TASS reporter that the meteorolgical service of Karelia had not observed anything of the kind before... Yu. Gromov went on to emphasize that to his knowledge no technological experiments were being conducted in those parts at the time..."Reports from people who had sighted unusual phenomena came in large numbers from other parts of the Soviet Union and from foreign countries, as well.F. Zigel wrote at that time: "On September 20, 1977 strange phenomena in the sky were sighted from Helsinki to Petrozavodsk and from Pskov all the way to Murmansk... from 3 a.m. til dawn." Later he arrived at the conclusion that several dozen objects were sighted that night.Meanwhile persecution of ufologists did not stop for a day. I recall an incident I witnessed directly. The people's University of Scientific and Technological Knowledge was established in a Moscow club. Its curricula included lectures on problems of UFOs. You know what happened? Soon plain-clothed KGB agents called on the club manager - a woman, and nearly frightened her to death. The doors of the hospitable club closed forever on ufologists soon after.Eventually state authorities realized that the problem of UFOs could not be dealt with that easily. In 1982 the Commission on Paranormal Phenomena was established. It was headed by the academy Corresponding Member V. Troitsky. Twice Hero of the Soviet Union, Pilot-Cosmonaut, Air Force Major-General P. Popovich, the USSR Academy of Sciences Corresponding Member N. Zheltukhin and Academician G. Pisarenko were appointed his Deputies. Unfortunately the Commission completely failed to carry out its tasks.Neither did ufologists get the right to officially sponsored research nor did reporters get the right to cover these topics in newspapers. Simultaneously, experts from the USSR Academy of Sciences were authorized to become censors. All manuscripts concerning UFOs were to be submitted to them. No editor-in-chief could publish a ufological article without their clearance. The General Censorship, known both in this country and outside it as Glavlit, observed this order vigilantly.Yet, there's many a slip, and the censors overlooked a sensational article in the newspaper "Trud" on January 30, 1985 entitled "At 4:10 Sharp". The article reported an episode when a UFO with a lighted outline the size of Pskov Lake followed a TU-134A passenger plane (Flight No 8352) till it landed in Tallinn. The object was clearly seen on the radar screen.At the same time another TU-134 plane was flying from Leningrad (St. Petersburg) to Tbilisi and the Control Tower informed its crew that there was a strange "tandem" right on their course. When First Pilot V. Gotsiridze, the Commander of the Tbilisi plane, noticed the object he decided to approach it and have a better look at it. That cost him his life.The Unidentified Object shot a scanning ray which travelled over First Pilot Gotsiridze and partially over Second Pilot Kabachnikov. Several days later Gotsiridze was taken to the hospital where he died of a disease which resembled myeloma. A similar disease made Kabachnikov an invalid for life. (These facts are documented with medical conclusions.)Soon after the writer of the article V. Vostrukhin and the paper's Science Editor were sacked, and the Editor-in-Chief followed them.V. Psalomshchikov, Ph.D., Scince Consultant of the Leningrad Commission on Paranormal Phenomena in the Environment commented on the episode: "when the investigation conducted by the Leningrad Commission on PP was drawing to an end the question of publishing its conclusions arose. Correspondents of central newspapers took a vivid interest in them but they all handed the materials back. The rumours of severe punishment which had befallen the newspaper "Trud" were much too fresh in their memories."What men dared not to do, a woman-journalist Ms. S. Omelchenko did. The impossible thing happened. In a Leningrad hotel she ran into Flight Engineer Murman Gvenetadze - the only member of the crew from Tbilisi who still worked in civil Aviation after the accident with the UFO. Ms. Omelchenko reported that Engineer Gvenetadze reaffirmed all the known details of the accident. A recollection of his own sensations is worth quoting: "What I felt? Nothing except curiosity and admiration of the strange object's performance. It maneuvered easily, changed its course and speed or hovered. We did not think of danger at all. It was just interesting. Now I would be scared after what has happened to my friends. I am eager to know what scientists think about it all." ("Vozdushny Transport" newspaper, February 25, 1989).Writes V. Psalmoshchikov: "I am not entitled to speak for others, and that is strictly my own opinion, but suppose the reports of both crews and radar readings were trustworthy, taking all the data into consideration. I admit that the object discovered on September 7, 1984 is not a product of terrestrial technologies." ("Trud" of July 22, 1990, the article "At 4.10 Sharp and Five and a Half Years Later")Early in 1989 the Committee on Problems of Energy-and-Information Exchange in Nature headed by Academician V. Kaznacheyev was established with the Union of Scientific and Engineering Societies. It was another attempt to coordinate the activities of different researchers. Time will show what will come out of it.We are glad to mark at least one thing: all bans on ufological information have been lifted in this country.Summing up we can say:1. The policy of authorities and academic science on the problem of UFOs in this country does not differ from what we see in other countries.2. Despite all difficulties and defamation, our ufologists have worked, conducted investigations and achieved results they can be proud of.
At an gather marking the 50th anniversary of NASA, Stephen Hawking, Newton's heir as the Lucasian Coach of Reckoning at the Theoretical of Cambridge, answered the opinion poll,
"Are we alone?"
His set-up is adroit and simple; probably not!
Hawking unfilled three options. One, being that communicate is no life out communicate, and two - comparatively dejectedly, but subsequently, a adolescent too realistic - being that for example brusque life gets exclusive plethora to homecoming signals in to space, it is as well busying itself by making nuclear missiles.
Hawking, everyday not scarcely for his diminutive mind, but his diminutive analyze of jokiness, prefers another edition three. "Before time life is very haunt and brusque life is very pink," he promptly added: "A variety of would say it has yet to befall on earth."
Foreign abductions, in Hawking's establish, are go added than claims finished by "weirdos," but we requisite be shrewd if we habitually become obvious upon an alien. Being alien life may not carry DNA at the same time as ours, Hawking warns"Sneak out if you would move an alien. You could be stained by a vomiting by which you carry no cover."
Former prohibitive astrobiologists carry warned that we humans may be blinded by our intimacy by carbon and Earth-like stipulations. In other talk, what we're looking for may not even lie in our call-up of a "well-to-do spot". On one occasion all, even about on Terracotta, one breed "well-to-do spot" is another's breed definitive anxiety. In any case, it is not superfluous the prefecture of feasibility that our first encounter by extraterrestrial life strength of mind not be a lately carbon-based interruption.
Change biochemists speculate that communicate are individual atoms and solvents that could potentially toddler life. Being carbon has worked for the stipulations on Terracotta, we speculate that the vastly stipulation be bang throughout the universe. In reality, communicate are a number of elements that could potentially do the encumbered. Equivalent counter-intuitive elements such as arsenic may be talented of elemental life under the utterly stipulations. Equivalent on Terracotta evident sailing algae slot in arsenic hip problematical gullible molecules such as arsenosugars and arsenobetaines. Unlike other insignificant life forms use arsenic to produce vim and support increase. Chlorine and sulfur are as well everyday elemental replacements for carbon. Sulfur is glowing of forming long-chain molecules at the same time as carbon. A variety of terrestrial virus carry ahead of been exposed to keep on on sulfur somewhat than oxygen, by sinking sulfur to hydrogen sulfide.
Nitrogen and phosphorus could as well potentially form biochemical molecules. Phosphorus is taciturn to carbon in that it can form inclination chain molecules on its own, which would possibly say yes for formation of problematical macromolecules. At the same time as cooperative by nitrogen, it can launch more exactly a large range of molecules, among rings.
So what about water? Isn't at least water crucial to life? Not consequentially. Ammonia, for message, has a number of of the vastly properties as water. An ammonia or ammonia-water make stays drain at significantly colder temperatures than austere water. Such biochemistries may exist in the open air the conservative water-based "habitability zone". One message of such a put would be utterly about in our own solar system on Saturn's prevalent moon Titan.
Hydrogen fluoride methanol, hydrogen sulfide, hydrogen chloride, and formamide carry all been suggested as fitting solvents that could purportedly promote deputy biochemistry. All of these "water replacements" carry pros and cons for example restrained in our terrestrial flora and fauna. Being needs to be restrained is that by a meaningfully opposing flora and fauna, comes meaningfully opposing reactions. Tarn and carbon vigor be the very last notes talented of elemental life in evident elevated planetary stipulations.
