...watch this documentary

https://watch.blaze.tv/watch/replay/382122

The UAPs  ( aka UFO) that have been recorded on US Navy aircraft cameras are the tip of an iceberg. This excellent documentary covers many of the key sightings since the late 1940s. Dont miss Socorro, Father William Gill, and the Australian and Zimbabwe schoolchildren.

The documentary does not cover an important aspect of UFOs: abductions. Over the past 50 years researchers have uncovered a pattern in descriptions by victims, and rather consistent modus operandi. Prof D M Jacobs is one such researcher and his summary of the field is here:

https://www.scientificexploration.org/docs/23/jse_23_1_jacobs.pdf

The generation of "alien"-human hybrids seems to permeate the abduction phenomenon. And that, for me, argues against extraterrestrial aliens: they may be closer to home.

Most abductions happen in remote areas at night, which should add an extra dimension to nocturnal drives in the TR.

Enjoy......................??

The UK is not immune to these abductions, although there were/are fewer investigators. Here's an example from my area:

https://www.thinkaboutitdocs.com/abduction-in-wales/

And NE Essex: http://www.thinkaboutitdocs.com/1974-aveley-essex-england-abduction/

Older TRers might be reassured by this close call in Aldershot: http://www.beamsinvestigations.org/1983.html

This huge compendium covering 100 years of ufo reports is useful for getting an idea of the phenomena:

I suggest starting with 1954, Sept to Nov, when there was a wave of landings and humanoid reports from France.

Brazil has a long history of ufos and its military are opening up its records to the public. The speaker has a lifetime of ufo research. The Corales cases are fascinating for its light beams that can bend and sample the victims. ( they can also render roof or walls of the shacks transparent). And note the very close encounter by an air force officer. The captured  Varginha alien is the best reported anywhere ( Roger Lier's book gives more detail, and it does not look to me to be an ET alien, but closer to our biology, but not terrestrial......go figure..).  No answers, lots of questions....Peter

Peter Khoury is a Lebanese-Australian with a series of high strangeness experiences, that chime with those of many abductees. His account begins at 1 hour into this video. Note frozen time, induced paralysis, accelerated healing of a wound, and the entities.

Jaques Vallee is the eminence grise of ufo research. This summary of Jaques Vallee's lifetime of UFO research emphasises that the widespread idea of extraterrestrials visitng in UFOs is far too simplistic. He argues for a "control system" manipulating of human conciousness going back centuries, and described in old texts  as elves, dwarves, fairies, kobolds etc. The video covers most of the books he has published.

In early March 2022 Rice University held a conference to inaugurate its archives of ufologists' archives: " Archives of the Impossible". Here Leslie Kean describes delivers a plenary lecture. She is a respected US investigative journalist who broke the story of AATIP and the Nimitz, go-fast, and tictac ufo videos form US Navy, and was a key player in getting US Congress to take UFOs -renamed UAPs - seriously. Here she describes another weird phenomenon, seemingly unrelated to ufos. But there are similarities. Peter

Leslie Kean's book greatly amplifies her talk, and I commend it highly.Should you be tempted to think "next step science" is making progress into the fundamentals of nature ( as I once did) this book summarises a century of observations and experiment that show how little progress we have made. The field was explored by eminent scientists a century ago and progress was made in defining the reality of information transfer through time, from the deceased. The physical effects are amazing, but it is the information transfer that most impresses and is beyond reasonable refutation.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Surviving-Death-Journalist-Investigates-Afterlife/dp/0451497147/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=leslie+kean&link_code=qs&qid=1652125067&sourceid=Mozilla-search&sr=8-1

The parallels with ufos are levitation and passage of matter-through-matter. I suspect we do not have a detailed knowledge of the nature of time, or maybe times in the plural.

Enjoy!

When two seemingly unrelated scenarios - UFOs and spiritual seances - embrace several similar high strangeness phenomena, science should take note. But it doesn't, it has become institutionalised, compartmentalised and dominated by group-think.  So matter-through-matter, levitation and telepathy, common to ufos and physical mediums, is ignored and rejected by the scientific herd. However there  are a few scientists who are on the ball. Emeritus Professor Bernard Carr , a physicist whose PhD was supervised by Stephen Hawking, is a prominent proponent of psychical research, as his article shows:

https://www.scientificexploration.org/docs/33/jse_33_4_Carr.pdf

He writes: ""In my own model—motivated by developments in cosmology and particle physics—physical and phenomenal space–times are regarded as projections of a 5-dimensional reality structure. The extra dimension is related to mental time (as distinct from physical time), so I have two time dimensions but the same spatial dimensions, .....""

UFO phenomena display anomalies in time-flow. Maybe another time dimension is involved?

Continuing the highly strange theme, this book describes Out of Body and Near Death experiences and attmepts to explain them by positing that our consciousness resides external to the brain in a non-local timeless space. A surprising percentage of unconcious or comatose patients enjoy (Yes!) these experiences. Their distress comes when no-one takes them seriously, least of all scientists and medics wedded to materialist emprical next-step dogmas.  In places the book is heavy going but the descriptions by the patients are riveting reading. eg a comatose pt recalled a nurse in ICU removing his false teeth and was able to tell her, once he had  recovered from the NDE, excactly where she had put them, ina drawer on the crash trolley.: he had watched her from above.

You may be wondering why this  thread has wandered from UFOs through spiritualism to NDEs and consciousness. There are aspects in common. Matter-through-matter and telepathy are two. But for those still wedded to UFOs as mere nuts and bolts machines, Congress' deliberations this week are summarised here ( I havent sen it yet):

While there is no doubt UFOs are real physical objects, leaving landing  traces etc, their builders are unknown, but unlikely to be ET. In the next posts I will attempt to summarise the evidence that they can influence the thought processes and actions of humans, specificaly those who are abductees. Understanding our consciousness and its putative extra-dimensional nature as proposed by Bernard Carr and Pim van Pimmel , may be key to understanding UFO phenomena.

The documentary cited in the first post included a UFO landing witnessed by dozens of school children. A new documentary updating this event has been released for sale. I have not seen it, so have no idea if its any good. https://arielphenomenon.com/product/pay-per-view-ariel-phenomenon-stream/

I shall wait for it to be broadcast on eg Blaze ( Thursday nights).  It is one of many, many UFO landing and occupant reports. I doubt the film throws up new insights, but for those who still doubt the reality of the phenomenon, it could be worth the purchase, especially if there is more footage of Prof John Mack, the late Harvard psychologist interviewing the witnesses.

An astronomer's take on the recent Congress hearing on UAPs and alien life:

https://theconversation.com/is-there-evidence-aliens-have-visited-earth-heres-whats-come-out-of-us-congress-hearings-on-unidentified-aerial-phenomena-183443

My take is that CIA/Pentagon are well aware that the phenomenon is not extraterrestrial, and can legitimately rebuff those who make the assumption it is. Almost all UFO enthusiasts follow the ET hypothesis, with not a shred of evidence, apart from what abductees have recalled being told by UFO occupants.

More likely it is an extra-dimensional intelligence behind the UFO/UAPs and other high strangeness phenomena, as proposed years ago  by Dr Jaques Vallee, the eminence grise of UFO research with six decades' experieince;  https://www.jacquesvallee.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Five_Arguments_Against_the_Extraterrestr-1.pdf

Abductions are an important aspect of high  strangeness UFO phenomena. Here are  a couple of examples of repeated abductions of an individual. We see that  their behaviour and knowledge has been changed.

The first is a young lad living in Kent:  http://www.thinkaboutitdocs.com/1987-abduction-of-jason-andrews/

- I've ordered the book. 

Another first-person story is "Incident at Devil's Den" by Terry Lovelace, https://www.terrylovelace.com/about/

Abductions have been summarised in books by Budd Hopkins, John Mack, David Jacobs, and others,  since ca 1970. Jacobs reckons tens of thousands have occurred in USA alone. Yet I see in New Scientist that the TV physics pundit Prof Alkalili places them on a par with believers in flat earth. He is not alone. Such is the parlous state of academic science knowledge of UFO phenomena. "The Emperor has no clothes" rules academic science when it comes to UFOs.

Here's an insight into the lack of depth of questioning by the Congress' UAP committee last month:

https://thehill.com/opinion/national-security/3506349-the-questions-congress-should-but-didnt-ask-about-ufos/

And  here is an idea of the range of historical reports that NASA may be concealing, and that should be part of the  Congress committee remit:

Two adult family members reported watching the ISS fly over, and then saw an equally bright object zig-zag, stop ( several times) and then disappear at very high speed indeed.  Another unexplained.

"The Conversation" is a blog for academics, but comments are open to all.  Here's my take on Dark Matter, based upon UFO time anomalies ( second comment): https://theconversation.com/dark-matter-should-we-be-so-sure-it-exists-heres-how-philosophy-can-help-184109

I expect it will be ignored!

I saw a UFO this PM!

It was cylindrical, with a domed top about half that length, not moving fast but changed direction suddenly.  It flashed intermittently.

Then it got nearer, it was someone's 10th birthday helium balloons.

Yes 95% of UFO reports have mundane explanations. Its the 5% unexplained that are fascinating. In the internet age the percentage will be even lower: I ignore them, although the US Navy seems to be a reliable source. There a re too many photoshop hoaxes or drones as per the Jubilee party.

The most convincing reports were from 50s to 80s, and subject to investigation by enthusiasts. This one for instance also may reflect anomalous time-flow ( because the refractive index of a material is a measure of slowing of the speed of light):http://theozfiles.blogspot.com/2013/11/1966-burkes-flat-bent-headlight-beams.html

NASA joins the search ....

https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/06/09/nasa-ufo-uap-extraterrestrial-space/

The Extraterrestrial Hypothesis is so deeply embedded in the UFO/UAP story that these agencies may be incapable of doing thorough science. Extradimensional origins of UFOs and their occupants are likel to be excluded from consideration by NASA, along with SETI and Loeb's Galileo project at Harvard.  I'm in the extra-dimensional camp, but struggle to imagine what an  extra dimension would look like or what it could allow a UFO to do. UFOs go back thousands of years, make seemingly trivial approaches to some, apparently randomly selected, humans and influence behaviour. They may just be popping in from a dimension next door. Their biology is suspiciously close to ours, even to the extent of allowing hybrdisation using gametes, the principal objective it seems of most abductions. NASA, SETI and Loeb - stand aside and let the biologists get to work. Maybe humans and ufonauts have evolved in parallel, sharing transposible genetic information across dimensions over billions of years. They invented the  technology to visit us first. They are "not alien enought" to be ET.

Our brains use pattern recognition to help us interpret what we see and hear.

This is efficient but can lead to us fitting things into patterns of what we think we are seeing be that aliens.

As for out of body/near death experience we should perhaps interpret with caution. Brains starved of oxygen, loaded with anaesthetic and opiates may again remember some things with clarity and others with the illness equivalent of beer goggles.

Out of body or out of mind?

I take your point, absence of EEG does not mean absence of neuronal function, maybe only absence of co-ordinated conscious thoughts. Pim van Lommel to my thinking has not been rigorously selective in the OBE and NDE examples he cites. Most information reported by experiencers could have origins in a brain "winding down" despite the absence of  detectable EEG  signals. Most neurones will still have near-normal ion gradients, even ATP, and are certainly still intact (not lysed and dead).These may well supply the fast sequence of memories in the "life review" and other OBE/NDE experiences. However, the few examples he cites that provide information that the pt could not have known prior to the NDE are the ones to focus on. Including: The NDE who saw his false teeth being pt in a drawer by the nurse, the NDE who saw reems of print-out kicked under the operating table, and the young lad who knew details of a life of a long dead aviator. That cannot be explained by neuro-science as it stands,nor any science I am aware of. We should ask: where does that novel information arise?

By chance I came across another OBE in a book written by Ann Andrews the mother of a young serial abductee, herself an abductee.

image.png.e822087165b3396d209be758f72b6eb3.png

The lad experinced an OBE, leaving his body on his bed upstairs, and watching his parents downstairs discussing a possible holiday and the wife hitting out with a rolled-up newspaper. The next morning the lad describes the scene to his mother, who had never mentioned the holiday and who recalled the newspaper. That information: where did it come from?

This book is an excellent introduction to  the abductee phenomenon: it is first person authored, does not involve hypnotic recall, and puts the mother and sons abduction experiences into the context of the older literature by Hopkins, Prof Mack and Prof Jacobs. The distress of the lad,who was frequently abducted, when told his nocturnal experiences were just a dream and his dismissal by the "finger woman" ( a psychiatrist who was not abduction-aware) is clear. His rapidly healing wounds are physical evidence, common to many abudctees, and an area I hope to explore. Rapid healing may reflect rapid-flowing time rather than biology.

The worlds of OBE/NDEs , UFOs and abductions, psychical "psi" phenomena (eg telepathy) and crop formations may not be discrete processes but manifestations of different aspects of a higher over-arching intelligence. The clues are there, its how to get a handle on the phenomena that chimes with  accepted science that is the challenge. Observations need to be followed up by measurements.

Interpret with caution.

Absence of measured neuronal function on an EEG may also reflect a poor connection, defective equipment or the sensitivity set too high. Not absolute brain death.

Believing you saw something happen is not the same as seeing it happen.  You may find your teeth in a draw, you may have heard a nurse say they will put them in there, you may have seen her remove them from your mouth or felt it happen.  A drug loaded, hypoxic brain affected by electrolye imbalance may lead to one interpreting those actions as if you saw them from above.  Did you see them? Did your subconscious, impaired brain put things together and give that interpretation?

I have dreamed I was flying, and that dream seemed real but deep finding myself in bed tells me it was a dream. Near death experiences are not dreams as such and usually are part of a longer spell of sickness the individuals may well not have the reference points that tell them they were dreams or confabulations to explain gaps in their understanding or erroneus interpretations.

Sometimes we have experiences we do not truly understand but our minds try and make the events fit our understanding in ways that seem reasonable and believable.  Reasonable and believable is not always factually correct. 

Do I believe aliens exist? Stats suggest this is highly likely. Do I belive the claims made by many they have seen aliens or alien spacecraft?  Not likely - most are objects of rather more earthly origin or the simply, as yet unexplained but UFO does not stand for alien (as in not of this world) It could be there is life capable of spac travel from nearby but the odds suggest that is more distant and our current understanding of physics would suggest that the sort of travel times or speeds make contact a bit more tricky.  If you are so advanced you can travel faster than light, why do you end up crashing on earth and then abduct and copulate with the local life.
