Pentagon UFO Study - Media Monitoring

Free episodes:

Not necessarily 'mocking' our illusions but demonstrating to us that we're being observed by other, more advanced, more experienced intelligences and that we should be taking seriously the warnings they have issued to us about our self-destructive widespread implementation of nuclear weapons and our mindless degradation of our planet's ecology. Makes perfect sense to me without the drama.
 
. . . Fascinating. The crew was definitely aware of the event; the situational awareness of the pilots is always at least as sharp as that of the passengers. What a unique sighting – I’ve never seen a description like that before. I’d love to see some kind of visual representation of what you saw; it’s kind of difficult to visualize. It seems that a great deal of sightings involve AAVs that we can fairly easily comprehend as technological devices, but some – like yours, appear to involve extravagantly advanced technology that’s very difficult (if not impossible) to comprehend. I wonder if your daughter recalls that sighting. I reckon that’s unlikely, since most people don’t recall much before the age of 5 or 6, but it would be neat if you two shared that memory.

Sorry for not responding earlier to your questions about Annie's and my sighting over Lake Michigan; I haven't been back to this page since I posted it. It was around 10 pm when we passed over Chicago and just a short time before we landed in Milwaukee; the cabin was generally dark, with only a few reading lights on where people were reading, as I was to Annie, so I don't know whether anyone else saw this object. Annie was looking out the passenger window over the right-hand wing of the plane and was stunned by the brightness of the object. She jostled my arm and pointed out the window to call my attention to it, and one or two seconds later I was looking out the window and saw it seeming to stand still in the air as we passed it by. Surely the pilots and crew noticed it and wondered if anyone else had, silently watching all the passengers' faces as we filed out of the plane.

The light was extremely bright, brilliantly clear or white, and, as I said, appeared to me to be encased behind a very thick (looked 2 to 3 inches thick) glass enclosure of some kind, squarish but rounded at the edges, like the shape of older tv screens but more rectangular. Nothing was visible beyond the edges of this shape or outlet. The light and its casing almost filled the entire cabin window we sat next to and appeared to be just off the tip of the wing, so part of the plane was visible. Anyone sitting up with their eyes open on that side the plane could not have failed to see it, but I remember no verbal exclamations. When we landed ten minutes later, however, no one spoke; the silence was thick as the passengers gathered their belongings and formed a line in the aisle to exit at the front left of the plane. The pilots and a third man (maybe the navigator) wearing the same kind of uniform, and several of the stewards and stewardesses stood together silently watching the faces of all of us as we passed by them to the exit door. No one said anything; no ordinary chit-chat with them as we all left the plane, and they didn't speak with any of us either.

At the time I had lamely thought that we might have passed very close to a lighthouse out in Lake Michigan off-shore of Racine or Kenosha. I asked friends who met us at the airport if any of them had ever seen a lighthouse while flying north of Chicago to Milwaukee. No one had. It was five years later that I described this event to the father of one of my daughter's school friends, when he was talking about ufos, and he said, "oh, you saw one." He had had sightings as well while working for NASA.

I didn't begin to do any research into the ufo subject until June of 1997 when USA Today carried a two-page spread of photos and text concerning the Phoenix Lights events, which had been widely observed there three months earlier. Annie was eleven years old then and I became riveted by those images and that information, wondering what it might mean in and for her future, and then I spent ten years reading everything I could find concerning the modern ufo wave that began in the early 1940s and continues to this day. I was frightened at first, but the more I learned of the history of it in the 2oth century, and the history of similar phenomena going back centuries and even represented in millenia-old cave art as well as in Medieval and Renaissance paintings, the more I became convinced that we have nothing to fear from advanced intelligences approaching and studying earth from elsewhere.

Hope that responds to your questions. I still remember this sighting in detail, as if it happened last night. Also had two other sightings from the ground in subsequent years.

It begins. NEWSWEEK opens a can of “whup-ass” on BAASS and TTSA!

The Pentagon’s Top Secret UFO program investigated poltergeists and other ‘bizarre creatures’

(Brother @Realm , do you think this is the beginning of the end for TTSA and Bigelow?
Brother @S.R.L. , how long before we see the social media “pitchfork brigade” descend on Dr. Puthoff’s castle to the stars?)

It was only a matter of time before the mainstream media would start writing about all the wigged out occult, demonic and inter-dimensional UFO stuff underneath the ticky-tacky UAPs of the “nuts and bolts” military videos. All they had to google was “Skinwalker ranch.” And Newsweek did!

So let the mainstream media mockery begin!


PENTAGON’S SECRET UFO PROGRAM INVESTIGATED POLTERGEIST CONNECTION TO ALIEN MYSTERY

The investigative “I-Team” for CBS affiliate KLAS-TV in Las Vegas, NV has brought forward new documents related to the secret Pentagon UFO program first revealed by the New York Times in December.

But even stranger than the documents, which delved into theoretical warp drive and extra-dimensional technologies, was the response provided to KLAS-TV by an unnamed “senior manager” within the program, who connected the Pentagon’s UFO program to poltergeists, “invisible entities” and “bizarre creatures.”

The new statement from BAASS (Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies) to KLAS-TV indicates the team contracted by the Pentagon delved into phenomena far beyond the UFO purview indicated in the NYT’s original reveal, in some ways continuing the paranormal research begun by founder Richard Bigelow in the 90s.

[ . . . ]

Could poltergeists, UFOs and other paranormal phenomena all be related? While it’s always possible new information from the Pentagon UFO program will provide actual data from Bigelow’s AAWSAP research, the presence of electrical engineer Dr. Harold Puthoff, one of the lead researchers for BAASS, warrants a default to skepticism.

Puthoff, also one of the sources for the initial NYT disclosure, has a long history of promoting pseudoscienceendorsing psychic fraud Uri Geller and coming to the defense of L. Ron Hubbard's E-meter in a 1974 document Scientology developed for use by the government. Puthoff’s research team, EarthTech International, was subcontracted by Bigelow to write the recently revealed DIA reports.

Those reports don’t point to any new revolutions in science or UFO research. DIA documents for AAWSAP, like “Warp Drive, Dark Energy, and the Manipulation of Extra Dimensions,” are more summations of existing theoretical physics than radical alien technologies.

“It’s bits and pieces of theoretical physics dressed up as if it has something to do with potentially real-world applications, which it doesn’t,” theoretical physicist Sean Carroll told Business Insider. “This is not something that’s going to connect with engineering anytime soon, probably anytime ever.”

 
TTSA just updated their website with a new section Titled "Due Diligence"

To The Stars Academy

I'm not sure if this was available before, but there's a few internal company documents, such as standardized employee contracts pertaining to inventions and other things. All this information dates back to September 2017. Crowdcheck basically "background-checked" the crowdfunding campaign to the best of its ability, and the report is public. Not much new info there, and the name Elizondo is nowhere to be seen.
 
Coast to Coast AM uploaded the first 39 minutes of George Knapp’s show interviewing Luis Elizondo; lots of interesting discussion and answers to questions that many people have:


I wish we could hear the whole interview. But I’d rather chew my own arm off than subscribe to C2C AM with George S. Noory.
 
It's the show from Feb 25. This is the one where Elizondo says there are really materials in the US's possession, and he mentions that UFO reports have been increasing dramatically in recent years. He also confirms other stories partially, such as the nuclear missile facilities being interfered with, and people experiencing lost time after an encounter.

Constance - Can you enlighten us on you're "two other sightings from the ground."

Thanks

Will do. The next one was at least ten years later while I was driving north in rush-hour traffic around sunset in the city where I live in north Florida. As I was approaching a major intersection I saw an immense brilliant light in the treetop of a 30-40-ft. tall pine tree in a cluster of trees on my right and was able to turn into the residential street just before the intersection to get a closer look at it. It was January so I had my car windows up. I parked across the street from this brilliant light in the tree and rolled down my window to see it better. As I watched, the appearance of the light changed, from pure brilliant light to a grill-like surface with vertical openings through which light the color of magnesium flares was visible and poured outward. Within seconds a bright white triangular shape emerged from the tree and moved slowly along the road in front of me toward a forested neighborhood on a rise in which I had formerly lived and was lost in its thick canopy. I thought I'd try to follow it but realized that I would soon lose it in that neighborhood's winding streets and beyond them in higher traffic roads.

This triangular object appeared to have a dense field of tiny lights covering it. It moved so slowly that I wondered how it could remain airborne. It seemed not to be operating in time and space as I am able to comprehend them.

I returned to the main street I'd been on and drove a few miles north to drop off a package in a shopping mall. I returned southward on a narrower road over which the triangle had passed 15 minutes earlier. As I approached the intersection it had passed over I found that a car had crossed into the southbound lane and crashed into a concrete lamppost. The passengers had apparently been taken away from the scene and several police cars were blocking the way forward as the crash site was being measured. It seemed to me that the driver of that car might have crashed after observing the same white triangle I'd watched as it passed over that intersection 15 minutes earlier. There was no hope of questioning the busy policemen in the street, so I turned around and drove away. The next day I did call the city police department and asked if anyone had reported a triangular ufo in the area of that crash, but could not get a reference and phone number by which to contact any of the police officers at the scene of the accident.

Three or four years later I was driving my daughter to the home of a friend of hers in south Georgia. This was a small residential neighborhood on one side of a rural road on a rise facing an open field then lying fallow. It was winter and already dark out and I was looking ahead as a I drove slowly while Annie looked at the houses on the rising hillside to find her friend's parents' house. Suddenly an immense bright plasma of some kind rushed forward along my side of the car, passing close to my side window. I have no idea what it was but it amazed me. It was about the size of a Volkswagen Beetle, moving apace above the ground, rounded at the front and tapering off to a tail at the back. It's body was fluid, flowing and stretching in shape as it raced beyond my side window and the left front windshield moving/flying on down the road ahead of us. I think it was a plasma of some kind because its thick luminosity, the integrity of it, was a solid white color. I'd called out to Annie "look at that" and by the time she turned to follow my finger pointing forward through the windshield it had moved out of sight.

I referred above to that entity as a 'ufo' and just now as an 'entity' because I don't know what to call it. My sense of it, the direction and speed of its path, suggested strongly to me that it moved forward with intention to reach some goal. It seemed to me to be alive.

Btw, re that first sighting from the Delta airliner over the western shore of Lake Michigan, I did eventually file a report about it with MUFON-Michigan (more active and accessible than MUFON-Wisconsin at the time). I also discussed my report by email with the operator of the MUFON website who told me that they had recently received a report similar in all regards from someone flying near the shore of Lake Eerie.

Also, re the 'plasma' sighting, I read in another forum a few years ago a report of the same kind of 'sighting' by someone in Tennessee.
 
We're now almost 8 months into the TTSA campaign and it's time for me to make something out of nothing: how little we're being told actually tells us a lot!

I saw a glimpse of Elizondo's Brazil appearance on facebook and just like at the UFO Congress, he wasn't physically present! It was another pre-recorded interview. In the Q&A, he plainly stated that he chose questions he already answered before, not questions sent in specifically for the occasion. Did he even set foot in the country?

What's interesting here is that Elizondo is going on new appearances but deliberately not commenting on new information (such as "AAWSA"). This is a hint that he is not being gagged due to a security oath, but due to a coordinated decision not to talk about certain topics.

TTSA's behavior doesn't look like outright deception (e.g. making us believe something that isn't true to blatantly defraud investors). I feel like the behavior is more consistent with the idea that there are multiple stages to this disclosure effort, and that they have no choice but to stick to the script they were given. Answering the latest questions to clarify or confirm details would mean jumping the gun, so they avoid it.

The documentation provided with the declassified videos was never updated since its original posting even though mistakes and inaccuracies were found. This tells me they're likely to be documents strategically prepared in advance, possibly long before the purported date of the releases. Mistakes may not have been rectified because of the red tape involved (e.g. strict instructions from a source to reprint details as-is).

Elizondo and Puthoff have both given us glimpses of what's to come in their Coast to Coast interviews, but all the information released at this stage is known to come from unclassified documents (this is the only way it could have been disclosed). We know there is much more unclassified information out there which, for some reason, they have chosen not to disclose.

Only 3 of 36 unclassified DIRDs have been published, but BAASS supposedly had over 50 employees. I can guarantee that a vast majority of these people are currently monitoring the news and could help release the remaining 33 documents if they wished. There's absolutely no risk here, since the documents are unclassified. Yet somehow, we get complete radio silence from Bigelow himself, and all ex-BAASS personnel.

We had Harry Reid himself saying all the proof you need is in unclassified reports that he's seen, but that he wouldn't provide them to journalists himself. He says people have to work to find the information. It certainly sounds like he can't provide documents because although they're not classified, they may be unobtainable until we cross a threshold date. It doesn't make sense that he would claim to be a champion for the people's right to know but not release documents himself to the journalists who interviewed him.

Elizondo likewise dodged several questions with "If people want X, they'll have to ask the DoD." Again, for a champion of the people's right to know, not the most helpful response.

The fact that we are seeing widespread silence on unclassified information seems to betray a well-coordinated embargo.

If we were to imagine the government's high level disclosure plan, I suppose we're still in a conditioning phase. The UFO phenomenon needs to become a serious topic before we can have a serious discussion. In this phase, it would make sense if there was an explicit order not to provide unimpeachable proof to the public, presumably until all necessary preparations have been made.

The high-level coordination means we should be extremely suspicious of any notion that there is a civil war going on within the military/intelligence communities, and that the truth is being brought to us by the "good guys." The DoD may very well be in on the embargo, and making sure AATIP/AAWSA was poorly delineated and unfindable in the agency's records may have been part of it.

In a week or so, it'll be around 6 months since the NYT article, and 3 months since the GO FAST footage was released. Let's hope there's a pattern there...
 
Constance -

May I suggest (if you haven't already) checking out NUFORCS website. Go to the report data base --- then to shape of U.F.O. --- and proceed to "fireball" or "light" reports.

Good idea. I will do so. I have checked NUFORCS site for similar sightings to the 1990 sighting over Lake Michigan, quite a while ago, and will do that again as well. And maybe do a search for something like encounters with moving plasmas.
