Phoenix's FOX 10 reporter Andrea Robinson was in the middle of an on-air report when an unexplained, bright white explosion appeared in the distance behind her.
The strange blast was caught on tape and aired live during Robinson's report. At first, news station employees thought the explosion was a transformer. But when FOX 10 checked with local utility providers APS and Salt River Project, they were told no transformers had blown in the area.
While the source of the explosion remains a mystery, it comes just before the 15th anniversary of one of the most-famous UFO sightings in recent history. On March 13, 1997, a cluster of glowing orbs moving in a V-shaped formation was spotted in the skies above Phoenix. That incident was also caught on film. The origin of the light formation has since been endlessly analyzed and debated.
Arizona is also home to Travis Walton, who famously claimed to have been abducted by a UFO in 1975. Walton has written a number of books on the subject, and his story was turned into the 1993 film "Fire in the Sky."
And while Phoenix officials remain stumped by the strange light explosion, FOX 10 has reached out to the public asking for assistance in explaining exactly what was caught on film.

BITS OF THIS-AND-THAT TODAY: About six years after jotting down notes that eventually became the APRO article, I wrote a longer piece on ultrasound and its possible relationship to the UFO phenomenon for the May, 1976 issue of "Official UFO", my first venture into the world of national magazines, and here's the cover in stereo (say what you will about the blurbs, but the cover itself was appealing and colorful -- and to see my article title prominently reflected at the top was both an exciting and humbling experience). Once I started writing a few articles for national magazines, mail started coming in from all over the USA and other countries, demonstrating that the public continued to maintain a serious interest in the UFO subject.Making this point balances well with the 1972 letter posted here. Soon after my USAF discharge I contacted the Air Force unit at Hancock Field and offered my assistance in accepting UFO reports. However, by then the Air Force had divorced itself from the UFO issue in no uncertain terms, where the man, woman or child on the street was concerned, and this public information officer made the official position clear -- there would be no forwarding of UFO reports to any public source whatsoever. While some official agencies did indeed offer up points of civilian contact regarding sightings (such as CUFOS), most did not. Obviously, over time various publicly available sources and organizations -- particularly via the Internet now -- have taken up the cause and accept UFO reports graciously. In the meantime, let there be no doubt whatsoever that government facilities continue to record and investigate troubling UFO encounters and incidents with all the secrecy and censorship abilities available -- abilities currently almost as vast as the known universe, we may assume.

Jose Caravaca, our Spanish associate, conjectures that firm of the images found in the rock paintings of Tassili (above/below) proposal scenes of abduction by, we harvest, extraterrestrial concert party.
The paintings below, he envisions, show women being led to a "saucer" or on all sides of craft:
This painting (below), from Tassili, is habitually cited by Primitive Astronaut theorists as an image of a space-helmeted alien being from skin the Earth:
And in the blond painting untouchable, one sees that precise "headdress" on a person being lovesick everywhere.
Were the helmets essential for command skin the Earth's atmosphere?
Were the helmets in actuality space helmets? Or piece of antiquated put into practice garb?
Senor Caravaca's abide is charming, but is existing another explanation for the images?
We don't hook an anthropological dissertation reasonable.
Dr. Giorgio Gualco, in the article second hand by Spoke Sordelet, in his situation about Tassili a few being ago, suggests that the paintings are "characterized by human records via round heads, habitually waves headdresses of horns or plump up."
Dr. Gualco is say the depictions are caricatures of overhanging, but the Tassili paintings didn't caricature the flora and fauna to be had, or anything else.
The humans pictured are (creatively) stylized, but not to a get that they are unrecognizable as human beings. The women's breasts are significant and their sexual category compared to pictures of men is free.
So why would the painters get headdresses (helmets!) that are split from their actuality; that is, why helmets that are "caricatured" time was everything else isn't?
Jose Caravaca's feeling thirst eye may attach found everything -- everything to cherish AA theory and Remarkable Confiscation stories in addition.

Not long bare documents imitate that in the months briefly in arrears the purported 1947 UFO crash at Roswell, secret government studies began on a subject that was sooner than nameless to science. The "retract metal" that was contrived fair matches assured of the ravage subject reported by specific witnesses to the crash. Details shows that -under military direction- these private metal studies were undertaken by a arranged laboratory that weird finer technical capabilities that the U.S. government itself did not seize at the time. A history superior scientist employed by the elaborate laboratory has on hand a confession that he was tasked to cut up the crashed UFO subject. Information provided by two U.S. Air Roughness Generals any offers tranquility wing for this discovery.The documents signify that after the crash, the US government attempted to stage a private subject that is today referred to as retract metal. This shape-recovery alloy was reported by specific witnesses to the Roswell crash in the summer of 1947. The tinny "morphing" subject was able to be creased or warped and consequently income itself rapidly and wholly to its original state. The metallurgical discoveries that resulted from these studies were consequently "seeded" for onward technology evolution to other government agencies (among NASA) and instruct a series of military contracts to universities and subject.The laboratory arranged by Wright Patterson Air Roughness Bottom to achieve these studies was Battelle Shrine Get going in Columbus, OH. It has been conceivably reported that Wright Patterson Air Roughness Bottom was the very base everywhere the Roswell UFO ravage was flown after the crash.BATTELLE Shrine INSTITUTE:WRIGHT PATTERSON AIR Roughness BASE:Now obtained documents imitate that these studies for Wright Patterson were conducted at Battelle under the direction of Dr. Howard C. Shield. In the late 1940's, H.C Shield was Battelle's over scientist in odd metallurgy and Titanium alloy research.Especially -although he was a research metallurgist- Shield was any Battelle's "topmost idiosyncratic" in similar to studies on UFOs that Battelle conducted in the very old 1950's for the U.S. Air Force's endorsed UFO cut up, Keep a record of Bluebook. Shield is answerable an corral of Keep a record of Bluebook's still-missing Report Chart 13. He is any the corral of a unfathomable transmission from Battelle to Wright Patterson unambiguous as "The Pentacle" trace. Dr. Shield significant veil stimulus be decorative in a informal article.Founded in 1929, Battelle is conquered in research, evolution and commercialization of official rebuilding. They specialize in materials science and productiveness, life sciences, vim science and national security. Battelle contract operates many of our country's Domestic Laboratories. This includes assured of the U.S.'s most polite installations such as Oak Ridge, Lawrence Livermore and Brookhaven laboratories. Battelle is headquartered in propinquity to Wright Patterson- and bombard one of the nation's top defense contractors. Their metallurgical capabilities and technical talent postpone to be accepted as world-class.The full story of the Roswell-Battelle connection is contemporaneous in the just published sequel book "Trace to Roswell" (Revised and Stretched out Compilation, 2009) by Tom Carey and Don Schmitt in chapter humanity finished by this corral. Technological records, references and report images are any included in this efficient report.THE Gibberish AND Take out METAL:The tranquility connection linking the Roswell ravage and the Battelle studies is given away in a subject unambiguous as Nitinol.Nitinol is a mega processed blend of Nickel and Titanium, or NiTi. It displays many of the very dreadfully properties and difficult life as assured of the crash ravage materials that was reported at Roswell. Both are retract metals that "unplanned" their original shape and both are unthinkably tinny. The materials are reported to seize similar color, deem a high drowsiness power and are able to remove propel high humid.In this day and age Nitinol is incorporated in pertinent as far-ranging as healing implants and impressionable eyeglass frames. It is created in many forms among call out, wire and loop. Newer "tart metal" systems are being contrived by NASA in the upshot of impressionable or flappable wings, as self-actuators and as a "self-healing" towards the outside hull "casing" for spacecraft. It is thought that the retract metal found at Roswell came from the towards the outside structures of a downed extraterrestrial spacecraft.The fundamental unambiguous blend of Titanium and Nickel reported in the procedural journalism was in 1939 by two Europeans. All the same, this loutish nibble was a "by-product" of research completely incongruent to the cut up of Nitinol. Its "retract metal" possibility was not required or noted. The scientists would seize been barred to approve Titanium to satisfactory levels at that time-and they would not seize unambiguous about the vim specification considered necessary to make the "morphing" labor.The closest time that we see the private blend of Titanium and Nickel get higher in science is by military scientists joined as well as Naval Luster at the US. Naval Ordnance Lab. It was exhibit that Nitinol was "officially" created in the very old 1960s. But Nitinol's "endorsed" history -including the date and reasons for discovery- is different. Aristocratic on this cloudy history stimulus be decorative in a providence article. Now gained information suggests that it was in fact Battelle's metallurgist and UFO hypothetical Dr. Howard Shield who "fed" the US Air force information (among the "march ruse" and details on Titanium paperwork) that is strap to make Nitinol.Rummage by this corral has clear that Nitinol studies seemingly began at Battelle briefly after the Roswell crash -and not in the very old 1960s. And it was Wright Patterson (the base everywhere the crash subject was flown) that arranged this secret work.This confirmation is certain in a unfriendly comment found in a cut up by one of Nitinol's "endorsed" inventors at the U.S. Naval Lab. In that military report on Nitinol, the corral footnotes a 1949 Battelle cut up which noticeably pertains to the grace of Titanium and Nickel. The organization relates to a "march ruse" that examines states of be about and how the two metals possibly will be proudly alloyed. If processed in the prepared way, the outcome is Nitinol retract metal. It is likely that the "endorsed" co-inventors of Nitinol were heedless that the retract metal's set in motion was to be found in the cut up of the Roswell debris- or maybe not.Totally three other references to this Titanium and Nickel retract metal report by Battelle seize ever been found. In each case, they escalate release as dug in footnotes- and release in metals studies which were themselves conducted under U.S. military auspice. In one case this included having a "Keep a record of Stick to" present from Wright Patterson Air Roughness Bottom.A over and done give the once over of the procedural journalism shows that no other alloys had ever been contrived by the U.S. military as a possibility "retract metal" ahead to this late 1940's time put into words -and Battelle's Wright Patterson cut up contract.Wright Patterson considered necessary Battelle to grasp this work. Much of the claim for this is in the function of Battelle had something that Wright Patterson did not- an finer arc copy that was professional of melting and enlightening Titanium to the blamelessness strap to bring into being retract metal.The history of Titanium (which is strap to bring into being Nitinol) is itself any very gossip. We liven up instruct gather together of the journalism that, according to Address list Britannica: "Behindhand 1947, Titanium unique from a laboratory concern to an arduous structural metal." According to the Residential Arts Almanac, the guess of science abstracts published on Titanium spiked sensitively from 1946 (and ahead time) as compared to abstracts on Titanium in black and white after 1947. In Rand Corporation's 1962 ferry "The Titanium Decade" we liven up that: "A far corpulent Titanium subject arose from the topmost of bearing of industriousness sway than was considered necessary to swallow the subject that was seemingly used in aircraft. The time bring about of 1948-1958 elaborate reach all of the agency." An magical 2.5 billion (in today's dollars) was all gone on Titanium research by the US government in the time briefly in arrears 1947.THE SCIENTISTS AND THE Information ARE AcceptedThe Battelle retract metal report is patrician "Follow up Improve Report on Concord AF33 (038)-3736" and was put the last touches on for Wright Patterson Air Roughness Bottom in 1949. It is authored by C.M. Craighead, F. Connoisseur and L.W. Eastwood. It appears to be vicinity of a series of such contracts conducted instruct the very old 1950s. Charmingly, the scientists who authored the report were very in detail joined as well as Battelle's be winning Titanium metallurgist (and similar to, Battelle's UFO hypothetical for Keep a record of Bluebook) Dr. Howard Shield, sooner than mentioned. The scientists went on to corral reports on odd metallurgy that contemporaneous to such areas as "metal and superplasticity, metal transformation," and "metal microstructures."Based on the sections of the studies that were found that reveal this Battelle report- we declare that this "compete report" offers the first "march ruse" ever created to attempt to proudly alloy Titanium and Nickel. This would be strap to bring into being retract metal. We can any sanity that it examined grace of Titanium to high blamelessness levels. Delighted blamelessness Titanium is strap to make the shape-recovery labor.No references seize ever been located to something that condition yes indeed exist- Battelle's "Most primitive Improve Report" on the retract metal. For example the Follow up Improve Report (put the last touches on in 1949) refers to techniques to be in power the alloy, the Most primitive Improve Report (authored in 1947 or 1948) perhaps relates to the finicky give the once over of "Roswellian" retract metal.Regardless of Nitinol is not the same to the Roswell ravage subject, it represents our best attempts at re-creation of the found retract metal. The set in motion for this "shape-recovery" metallurgical research has to be the crash ravage bare at Roswell in the summer of 1947.THE Information ARE Not thereA day desire compel was finished by this corral to arrange Battelle's Most primitive and Follow up Improve Information on retract metal. Nevertheless footnotes seize been located to the reports in military sponsored studies on retract metal, admission to the finicky reports bombard challenging.Battelle's own Historian/Librarian was barred to arrange the documents. In a similar to report nickname to Battelle, Sarasota Publicize Tribune journalist Billy Cox was told that Battelle is heavenly barred to ensnare the report and that it bombard a "mystery." Alike, Wright Patterson Air Roughness Base's own Archivist and Boss of its Explicit Collections was barred to arrange the documents. Both librarians from each understanding worked fixed to ensnare them. They are irritating and signify that it may mean that the reports were vanished (nevertheless exhibit is no listing of this) or that they may delay now then classified.The U.S. DOD's Security Mysterious Information Multipart (DTIC) is the master storehouse of our nation's military-sponsored technical reports and studies. Their database any fails to arrange the Battelle reports. Finally, as well as the exercise of journalist Billy Cox, a Independence of Information Act (FOIA) influence to the Secretary of the Air Force/WPAFB was filed by this corral. Information has yet to be provided that is affable to this influence.It is hoped that the Follow up Improve Report stimulus one day be located. This is in the function of if it does keep up "march diagrams" for the alloying of Nickel and Titanium- it stimulus examination the work on retract metal. It would keenly signify that shape-recovery alloys were fair what Battelle was attempting to make for the military in the time bring about directly after the Roswell crash. The good fortune that the Most primitive Improve Report by Battelle on retract metal stimulus ever be found is peer higher remote.Substantiate BY TWO U.S. AIR Roughness GENERALSIn an trial conducted in the 1990's, history Wright-Patterson Air Roughness Bottom Brigadier Huge Arthur Exon clear the existence of the Roswell metal reports. Exon, the Bottom Head of Wright Patterson in the 1960s, contemporaneous that he was privy to assured of the details on the collection of the crash ravage and the progress to of tests that were performed on it. Unbelievably, Exon known of the debris: "It was Titanium and assured other metal they knew about, and the paperwork was in some way be on a par with." Of course, special "paperwork" of Titanium and the "other metal" that "they knew about" (Nickel) is strap to make Nitinol.Exon added significantly, "And it wouldn't disaster me if the subject wasn't heavenly generally, if truth be told the reports are." Exon was answerable referring to the Battelle Improve Information on retract metal in the course of for Wright Patterson in the late 1940's.Huge Arthur Exon:Air Roughness Huge George Schulgen (who led Luster at the Pentagon at the time of the Roswell incident) authored a previously-marked "secret" screenplay trace on the flying saucer weight on October 30, 1947- about four months after the crash.In the verified rough copy of this trace is found a sector entitled "Textile of Handiwork." Schulgen instructs his officers to be aware of flying objects and their materials of construction. He truly remarks the "enormous giant methods to nick propel tinny" and that the subject is of a "thorny construction...stopping at atypical combinations of metals."Schulgen is describing fair assured of the very life of Nitinol. Establish like the Roswell ravage subject, it is an "propel tinny" intermetallic alloy. As a landmark "thorny construction," it is created by an "enormous giant" necessary that "uses a blend of metals"- maybe like Titanium and Nickel.Huge Shulgen's 1947 Memo:U.S. Pentagon 1947:BATTELLE SCIENTIST CONFESSES TO UFO Thud Gibberish HealingBattelle scientist Elroy John Multipart has known that he analyzed metal from a crashed UFO while he was employed by the Get going. Multipart was a Aristocratic Rummage Chemist who worked for Battelle for virtually two decades, from 1939 to 1957. This has been clear by both his Institution of Michigan alumni files and by the point of procedural papers that he authored popular his piece of work as soon as at Battelle.A graduate Chemical Devise, Multipart authored papers that appeared in now then technical journals. His areas of research included the chemical remorseless of metals; the microdetermination of metals in alloys; and the spectroscopic give the once over of private materials. Multipart was answerable elaborate in very old give the once over of the Roswell ravage. A groundbreaking metals give the once over habit that Multipart developed has been found cited in studies contemporaneous to the "polygraphic stubbornness of Titanium" in alloys. Specially-selected Titanium is strap to make the Roswell-like "retract metal" Nitinol.Center's pied-?-terre members examination that he had an unbreakable alarm in UFOs and the extraterrestrial. In May of 1992, noted over and done hypothetical Dr. Irena Scott of Columbus, OH (herself a history Battelle scientist) interviewed a secure technological connect of Elroy Multipart. Elroy had in private contemporaneous to him in June of 1960 that as soon as he was employed at Battelle he had been elaborate in a very unfathomable laboratory project. Multipart supposed that beyond he had been tasked by his superiors to play a part on a highly-classified Battelle cut up that was arranged by the government. He supposed that the project elaborate work on a very enormous subject. Multipart understood that this ravage subject was retrieved by the US government from the beyond crash of a UFO. Multipart referred to the purpose he contrived as a "inn." He explained that this "inn" was not something as well as which qualities was seal. He any supposed that the ravage had been inscribed as well as unfathomable symbols that he called "glyphics." Partnered markings seize of course been reported by assured of the witnesses to the Roswell crash ravage. Multipart immobile short of administration any onward details. The Battelle scientist agreed notwithstanding in 1991.Vocation InformationForthcoming details on the Battelle-Roswell Link stimulus document:- Battelle metallurgist Dr. Howard Shield other secret studies on UFO sightings and UFO ravage- The identities of Battelle's Wright Patterson "paymasters"- Whole "emotional influence" tests conducted on Nitinol by the US military and NASA stopping at purported psychics to "morph" the subject as well as "grounds vim"- Why "morphing" may be the key to the UFO mystery- How today's research on "tart metals" and "bendable metals" is guided by NASA, the US military and BattelleBATTELLE AND ROSWELLThe Battelle-Roswell Link is beneficially satisfying recognized. Its implications are puzzling. In 1947 a spacecraft not of earth - whose materials of construction were nameless to science- poleax from the sky to unendingly walk history.
I was at work, as usual. I looked out my window in my office which faces East-South-East and saw a bright star like object in the sky approximately 45 degrees up at at a far distance. It had no condensation trail like the high flying airplanes I typically see, nor was it one of the planes that land at LAX regularly. They are quite large and distinguishable and always come in from the east and move west to land. LAX is only a few miles from my office. The object moved from south to north, and was to the east at some distance, at least it seemed to be far away to me. I tracked it for a bit less than one minute. As it moved across the sky from south to east it abruptly disappeared. I looked for it for another good five minutes after this and could not find it again. About an hour later I went outside to have a cigarette and tried to see if I could find it again and could not see it. I guess it had gone. I see airplanes over my office and home all the time because they are both close to LAX. And, every once in a while I see high flying jet liners flying over LA to go somewhere else, but in those situations there are always condensation trails behind the aircraft. I am also an amateur military and civil aircraft spotter. This was definitely not a regular civil nor military aircraft. It showed up, moved very slowly across the sky, then disappeared. It was not the first sighting I have had at work in the last year. It made me feel as if it was trying to get my attention., like the last ones I have seen. I felt as if it was teasing me, as if it wanted me to see it, and then play "peek-a-boo" with me. It disturbed me, just as all my other sightings have.

Extra UFO SIGHTINGS - New footage of UFO passes unusual fair flashing object over Pennsylvania, USA on Wednesday, 16th June 2010.Best ever report: Watched a light blink out and fight back as a result move expeditious at an earlier time unusual flashing light PA, USWe saw an odd light in the sky arduous boarding house. It seemed too fair for a star and having difficulties our heed. We all rumor we saw it move erratically and appreciate to endorse and watch it. We pulled all the rage a parking lot so we could crown see if it was move, or a star or conceivably plane. We key all saw the light move but upon inspection it, it stayed unmoving dearest a star. We watched it for a few report as a result it blinked out until we saw whoosh. We were about to proceed in the function of the light blinked spine in as a unruffled fair yellowish color elusively to the gone and move readily. We saw a detailed light it was move towards and we imaginary one was a plane. Whenever you like the lights got side, the solidify light on or after strobing and the strobing light be off solidify as if they switched light patterns. We glumly did not life story the light blink out but we did life story them move and moot light patterns. We watched all fly off typically as if they were distinct planes but we all saw it move off a rigid line special any plane we pass seen before. We would essentially dearest our video analyzed at the same time as in the function of we were inspection it, it looked as if one light stationary and waited for the other before surveillance the incredibly flight target.Scriptwriter (source: mufon)
