Argentina: Strange Apparitions Accompany Saucer Waves

Communities visited by strange entities in human shape

In Valcheta, Rio Negro Province, between Bajos del Gualicho and Somuncurá, there are those who claim to have seen an inexplicable light in the immensity of the desert, belonging to a lost city that emerges and vanishes, according to Luis Burgos.

The vast number of UFO cases recorded in Argentina, totaling 110 sightings since the start of the year, has opened the door to a singular number of ET- related phenomena which include, for example, strange characters that vanish and evaporate in the loneliness of the towns of the interior.

UFO Sighting Salem Oregon - Travelers From Beyond

Our UFO sighting was in 1988, but it was years before we told anybody. Amongst ourselves it was rarely mentioned, as if we didn't want to believe it. Being practical Oregonians, our minds reeled at the possibilities that were unleashed by the occurrence. Suddenly we had become players in one of the stories that we could only read about before. I know now what others must have gone through when they saw a UFO at close range, the incredulity that other people expressed when we told them. It became a life-changing experience. The universe seems a different place now, less a barren vacuum of space.

The U.N. Plan for UFO Disclosure and the International Year of Astronomy

The United Nations has designated the year 2009 as the International Year of Astronomy. Whether this was purposeful or just a coincidence, it lines up perfectly with their alleged plan to encourage disclosure of information about the UFO phenomenon next year. After one or more meetings and briefings on the subject were allegedly held in February of this year, I made a number of inquiries and have been astonished at the results.

UFO sighting of Tinley Park 'no hoax,' experts say

To this day, no one can say with any certainty what they were or where they were going.

Sure, there are theories.

The wing lights of a commercial airliner, flares tied to balloons, mistaken planets and even mass hallucination have been suggested as possible explanations for the sightings of three unidentified red lights that passed over the skies of Tinley Park in a rough V formation on the nights of Aug 21 and Oct 31 in 2004.

Burning Down the Hall: Castaneda's Critics versus Other Ways of Knowing

This is a response to the Reality Sandwich article by ST Frequency, "Shamans and Charlatans: Assessing Castaneda's Legacy". This writing was particularly initiated by this peculiar pronouncement of ST: ". . . the halls of academia are tarnished with the elevation of charlatans." It appears that ST has perhaps only read Carlos Castaneda's first book and more closely the books of the critic and researcher Richard De Mille, The Don Juan Papers and Castaneda's Journey.

Philippines: Trekkers' cameras catch flying objects

The presence of two strange flying creatures caught on camera inside a huge cave in the southern town of Argao, Cebu has baffled local tourism officials.

They believed that the footage captured by a group of call center agents were of fishlike or snakelike objects about a meter long that have been spotted in mountain areas of Mexico, Japan and Europe.

These creatures are called skyfish or flying rods because of their stick-like body. They have appendages along their torsos that reportedly flap in a wave motion while moving.

But according to The Straight Dope, a syndicated column in the US, the video footage are that of ordinary insects. It said that the camera's video capture framerate is too slow to capture the number of cycles of the insect's wing beat, resulting in a distorted image that looks like a flying rod.

"Essentially what you see is several wingbeat cycles of the insect on each frame of the video, creating the illusion of a "rod" with bulges along its length. The blurred body of the insect as it moves forward forms the "rod," and the oscillation of the wings up and down forms the bulges."

Three Erath County lawmen observe 'one big craft'

Note: Recently, a computer composite by a law enforcement officer in Erath County was posted on this site. The sighting was on January 8, 2008, between 7:30 and 8 p.m. The officer does not wish to be identified for reasons you will find further down in the story. For writing purposes the officer will be identified as Officer X.

Officer X is one more witness in an intriguing story now known around the world as 'The Stephenville Lights.' Some are saying the Stephenville event is the most significant UFO sighting since 'The Phoenix Lights' more than a decade ago.

The difference?

These officers didn't see just lights - they saw a craft. A craft they cannot explain or identify - something that looked like it was under intelligent control - something that maneuvered in a way that they had never seen.
