When The Music Died:NASA

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. Albert Einstein

“How many times can a man look up before he can see the sky” Bob Dylan

NASA planetary space programs as they’re designed now are so boring and unadventurous --except when water is found-- that few follow them. Try to find anyone who keeps up with our space program --except NASA groupies.

For instance, I’m betting not many of you ever checked back on what’s happening with the Polar Lander. Am I right?

There is one exception to these boring, unadventurous bureaucratic endeavors its ….MARS…particularly the Mars aerial photos.

My mission here isn’t to downplay the courage of our Astronauts; they do a fantastic job. But I’m angry about money wasted on bizarre, unattainable planetary missions better spent for looking for life on Mars.

So do I have a Martian obsession? Not really, no more than millions of others. It’s the mystery of Mars that’s continued to captivate us since at least the beginnings of the modern age, from the early days of science fiction. The uniquely Martian mystery is really there, waiting for us…But as usual, here’s one more compelling --perhaps even critical to human survival-- Class A mystery that’s repeatedly negated and distorted by NASA.

Lucky for us, two Americans are making it their life’s mission to un-negate the mystery of Mars: one you’ve heard of, and maybe another whose extraordinary work is news to you: Richard C. Hoagland and The Skipper.

We’re beneficiaries of their creativity and persistence, inspired by their fascination with Mars, and their refusal to accept negative NASA propaganda, which attempts to reduce the Red Planet to what looks a lot like rebroadcast shots of Vegas, before Bugsy Siegal started building casinos.

Hey, are those Landers boring or what? Why are they only dispatched to the most bleak spots imaginable? Does NASA really expect us to believe the Red Planet is a Mystery-Free Zone, nothing but a couple variations on desert?

We know better because of some striking MARS Photos.

Before anyone starts to congratulate NASA on these great finds, understand it was not by NASA’s diligence these amazing photos were found and identified. NASA, with its usual bias, was just snapping Mars turf --which they still stamp with their generic DON’T BOTHER LOOKING, NOTHING HERE, FOLKS negative publicity.
But the people, God love ‘em, the real people, with mystery and adventure in their souls and enough DIY to tool up took a long look. You know these kinds of people…they’re the same kind of people who envisioned the Constitution, or an impossible dream like computers and free information for every person on Earth.

And so it was arm-chair web seekers, unaffectionately labeled pseudo-scientists by the debunkers, engaging in DIY forensic photo analysis possible only with web access and a lot of diligence, who were right on about water on Mars… years ago. Photoshop is taught at every community college…your neighbor’s 11-year old and your grand kid know how to use freeware with the same image manipulation features NASA uses.

So now we see the work of these citizen Martian experts all over the net. Years ago they discovered Mars had water and put their proof up in photos showing progressive water staining on the Red Planet’s surface. These citizen photo analysts were ridiculed in their own forums by NASA employees who claimed these web seekers had to be wrong because…they just didn’t have a real NASA-level grasp on science.

But as it turned out, it wasn’t rocket science.

In the future --if we survive-- when we land on Mars, you will never hear the names of these DIY heroes mentioned in any credits. But they were right and they were first.
There’s one exception: Steadman Lake. Named by grandaddy of fringe and deeply alternative science websites, Kent Steadman, who passed on last Spring. Kent was an original like Art Bell, and his many thousand pages at cyberspaceorbit.com site are a tribute to Mystery, to his own dedication, and to a hundred thousand contributors --many who were frustrated insiders from military and science institutions. Kent, a graphic designer and art teacher, knew what could be done with Photoshop to cover up and uncover, and he just kept publishing photos and pointing out features on Mars that looked …exactly like similar features on Earth. Kent had admirers inside NASA and the Pentagon, too, and a host of Mormon relatives who were military insiders…they also began to spread the word, and now Steadman Lake is referred to by news media.

So we’re fortunate to have images discovered or un-photoshopped and published by Steadman, Hoagland, and another professional photo-imaging analyst, known as The Skipper.

So let’s take a look at some of the amazing photos from Mars brought to our attention recently. Let’s see where Americans’ money is parked right now on Mars, looking for water. Very Exciting!

But we could have just as easily looked for water here… and had everyone glued to the TV:

And instead of taking a great shot of a bleak landscape:

We could Have parked here, showing amazements like this:

Now The Skipper found something NASA claimed were sand dunes. I don’t know what they are, but they change shape:

Wouldn’t you just once like to ask them to roll over and find out what in hell this is --if it is not touched up by NASA as debunkers claim:

Mars Hidden Features...Thanks To Xhuthul Channel On You Tube:http://www.youtube.com/user/XhuthuL

Many believe --including the late great scifi Arthur C. Clark-- some Mars photos seem to show vegetation. And there are strange structures aplenty on Mars, like the above, and like the better-known Cydonia region originally the focus of Richard C. Hoagland’s research.

Also easily seen are lakes [like Steadman’s] which seem to show frozen water…and there patterns of vegetation-like transformation seen across photos of a single region that logically suggest living processes, life…plant life, even the possibility of intelligent life in many examples of what seem to be built environments.

Mars is full of mysteries and highly detailed features apparently natural and apparently built… yet unexplained, explained with disinfo or blatantly smudged out.

The Mystery is there but somehow we don’t want to take the next step…in believing we --meaning years of the disinfo campaign run by NASA-- may be wrong and Mars is alive.

When I was a young man I remember when Astronauts saw strange things. NASA would throw out explanations that couldn’t have been right. It was shocking. I think the music that played in my head, the music of the spheres, died for me then.

The idea that NASA was an independent entity, free of politics and free of military imperatives, a brand-new visionary organization where a scientist could really stretch his or her wings…was destroyed. We see now how political a creature NASA has become. NASA could have helped us shift our focus from ethnic tribal warfare and barrels of oil, to a shared adventure among the stars.

Sometimes I like to engage in reimagining NASA… NASA’s morphed into a robust and brainiac guiding light…NASA like a phoenix, rising out of the worn out politicized old game, a new NASA with fire in its soul…and contemplating a real adventure.

An honest adventure is what NASA needs and what WE need, too: an endeavor sufficiently difficult to induce maximum creativity, and important enough to excite the whole country…the whole world.

And good news to government bean counters, too: a new, true NASA adventure could pay for itself.

Try this: how about The Mars Plane a flying vehicle, built for the Mars atmosphere, streaming nearly-live broadcast events, complete with commercials, showcasing each new strange feature…Maybe some of these strange, large smudged objects --meaning those mystery objects “not made by NASA”-- could be zeroed in on… As our Mars Plane cam pans across these anomalies… some turn out to be a vastly different scale than we were led to believe by the first Rover photos, and it’s so obvious when we’re close enough for fly-overs…As we watch at home, online, footage streams as the Mars Plane journeys out each day from a central point to see the purported lakes or possible forests --maybe entire regions-- of vegetation…and don’t forget the mesas that seem to have hundreds of uniform cave openings, much like Earth’s Anasazi pueblos in the deserts of Arizona and New Mexico, cities carved integrally into canyon walls…

Who knows what all these amazing things could turn out to be? But that would be a great part of it, the mystery…

Don’t see that scenario happening quite yet?

So how good is this Mars photo expert, this Skipper guy, when it comes to catching real phenomenon? I thought I’d found something myself, and Skip told me it was a reflection. I argued the points he made and next he asked me to do some research on the Rover site photos. I found other photos that confirmed Skipper’s ideas. The guy has good eyes. Open yours here:
http://marsrovers.jpl.nasa.gov/gallery/all/2/r/1498/2R259355925EFFAY00P1374R0M1.HTML

Steadman, Hoagland and The Skipper have helped me tune into the Music of the Spheres again. Spread the word, and maybe after the election is over, the citizen DIY photo analysts can put enough mystery back into Mars that public outcry will inspire NASA to re-tool and reinvent itself.

*Except Polar Lander, all photos were obtained with permission from The Skipper at Mars Anomaly Research Web Site; except for changing perspectives, they are the original photos sent back from Mars. Do yourself a favor and look around Skipper’s site. WARNING: you may be shocked by what you’ve been missing:

The Aliens On Trial, Part Two

“So you think you can tell…. heaven from hell… blue skies from pain…running over the same old ground… what have we found… the same old fears...wish you were here.
Pink Floyd

Clerk of the World Court of the Federation of Nations: Will The Representative Dr. Steven Greer Take The Stand.

Attorney for the Defense: Dr. Greer, oh by the way: you are a real doctor?

Steven Greer: Yes. I was a physician in a hospital emergency ward.

Attorney for the Defense: What are we dealing with here, Dr. Greer? Evil aliens ready to serve us up for dinner?

Attorney for the Prosecution: Your Honor, I’m sure we are all well acquainted with Defense’s theatrics, but could we at least start off with some type of question that is not a statement in disguise?

Judge Stanton Friedman: Mr. Bassett, get to the point here.

Defense: Sorry, your Honor. Dr. Greer, tell us, please: how do we know for certain the ETs are not going to harm us after we disarm?

Steven Greer: You don’t have to believe the testimony of the thousands of witnesses. You just have to use some common sense. If the Visitors wanted to hurt us or enslave us, we would be dead or bowing down to them right now.

Defense: So all of these animal mutilations and all of the abductions, they are done by…who?

Steven Greer: Of course, there have been some people taken, but they were secured so they wouldn’t hurt themselves…You have to understand, the Visitors knew who we were, but we did not know about Them. With all the chemicals we were polluting into the air and water, they wanted to know how it was affecting human adults and children on our planet. They also checked our food chain and wild game and pets. But it was to help the animals and help us survive, in case we had done terrible damage.

Defense: The blood…why did they take all that blood? It seems to me a lot like vampirism.

Steven Greer: That’s just it…that was the Government. The governments of the world knew the Visitors would not interfere, so it was the governments acting with this knowledge, using the time they had before the Visitors became more overt, to back engineer the alien technology, and become --in a way-- the Aliens, themselves. If you see what I mean.

Defense: Why would the governments of various nations do this? We see what a mess there is today, half a dozen wars at any given moment, nobody agrees on anything. So how could you get these governments to agree on anything --much less, Aliens?

Steven Greer: Survival. This loose coalition of governments believed they were threatened, and of course, the US Government steered them that way. Secrecy was easy. Government leaders and military were told we were back-engineering captured craft and the weapons on board those Visitor ships. But in truth, from the early days, the big players in this government coalition --not the people who get elected, but the real government functionaries, the career cabinet members, diplomats, and military-- we say these diplomats and generals knew the Visitors were peaceful, but that they still were the ultimate threat… because the Visitors represent the only threat that could displace the authority of world governments… And this would lead to the governments’ loss of absolute power.

Defense: Thank you, Dr. Greer. Your witness.

Prosecution: Dr. Greer, do you believe the Federation of Light was in contact with these ET beings, --the Aliens known as Visitors-- that have landed?

Steven Greer: Yes, I do. There is a great deal of evidence…

Prosecution: Thank you, I got it. Now, Dr. Greer, isn’t it true that the members of this Federation of Light claimed the ET --the Aliens you call Visitors-- said they would appear on Oct. 14th?

Steven Greer: Yes, the Federation delivered the Visitors’ Message, but…

Prosecutor: I ask you, Dr. Greer, what happened to the October Surprise? Why didn’t the ETs, the Aliens, appear on October 14 as promised?

Steven Greer: There was no guarantee. This was a test of energy, so when the energy was not there, the Visitors didn’t appear.

Prosecution: Made the spokespeople for The Federation of Light appear pretty stupid, didn’t it --even to many inside the believer communities?

Defense: I object! What does this have to do with the charge of ET perjury… the ETs have never claimed they spoke through these people.

Prosecution: Nor have they claimed to have spoken through the many who claimed to be in contact with them inside The Disclosure Project, either.

Judge: I allow it. After all, Dr. Greer is a spokesperson approved by the ET representative, Mr. Z. So Dr. Greer’s position has been one of support for The Federation of Light. The witness is directed to answer the question.

Greer: The people who do this understand the abuse they go through if they stand firm in their beliefs.

Prosecution: Do you believe the decades of ET contactee history reported by some inside the UFO community?

Greer: Yes I do. There were some hoaxes, but they were discovered.

DVD Budd Hopkins Takes The UFO Community To Task:

Prosecution: Why would the Extraterrestrials, the Visitors pick these people, anonymous folks who most of humanity didn’t know? And isn’t it true many of the Contactee claims turned out to be…bald-faced lies?

Defense: Your Honor, this is ridiculous! How is the good doctor going to know which Contactee was really telling the truth, based on reports from decades ago?

Prosecution: Your Honor, Dr. Greer just said the “hoaxers were discovered” that leaves thousand of inaccurate ET pronouncements through these ET Contactees. So we must conclude if this was indeed communication originating from the Extraterrestrials, the Visitors, then they were capable of lying, and thereby capable of perjury.

Judge: I think this is relevant to the concept of perjury.

If the ETs have used people and lied through them, then they are quite capable of perjury. The ETs made a statement which, among other things, included the claim they had contacted some people telepathically. So this question is open for discussion.

One other item. The Defense will address Dr. Greer as Dr. Greer, or the witness, but not the “good doctor”.

Defense: Yes, your Honor.

Greer: We know the Visitors themselves could not become deeply involved in human history; that is a certainty. The Visitors told us in the statement they were not allowed to participate directly in our lives unless our future became dire. So the Visitors disguised what they said in ways we would understand. It was not lying; they were there to help us.

Prosecution: Didn’t the ETs predict atomic war through many of the Contactees? And didn’t they also claim they would take a select few --the chosen-- with them, somewhere off planet Earth?

Greer: We don’t know if any of that was true or just the Contactees ad-libbing, trying to make themselves more important.

Prosecution: How about a for-instance. Let’s take Adamski. Adamski ended up looking like an idiot, to everyone everywhere, except a few people inside the UFO community. They’re still debating how many independent witnesses actually saw UFO craft and phenomena around the late George Adamski.

Greer: ET --the Visitors-- can’t control what humans do with this gift they give us.

Prosecution: Do you claim you personally have documents proving the US government cloned DNA and likewise instituted the horrible abduction described by some abductees?

Greer: Absolutely.

Prosecution: Seeing how important this trial is, would you show this evidence to this court, please?

Greer: Your Honor, the Attorney for the Prosecution knows this court does not have the authority to grant either immunity to these witnesses or the reading of these documents.

Judge: It is true we can’t give immunity, but we all know if such clear evidence demonstrating any connection between the horrible mutilations and abductions and the US or any other government were brought forward, there wouldn’t be a government --or a prosecutor-- in the world who would bring charges on that evidence. I will allow it.

Greer: I will not put anyone in jeopardy. The last time I looked, the government was still in power.

Prosecution: So, at this pivotal moment in history when you could quiet the minds of billions of people by showing the ETs --Visitors--Aliens are really what they say they are, are you saying you will just stand aside…on a triviality?

Defense: This is abuse of the witness; witness has already stated why he can’t answer.

Judge: I will allow it. We are talking about the potential for total disarmament. That is what else is at stake here.

Greer: I will release all of this information after the agreement is made.

Prosecution: Steven Greer, is it true your group sent emails asking for a donation of roundtrip First Class seats from your UFO community?

Defense: Your Honor, what has this to do with the issue of ET perjury? He’s attacking the witness.

Prosecution: Your Honor, witness is claiming such high standards, I thought we should question him about how far those standards go in his organization.

Judge: Sustained. I don’t think this line of questioning gets us closer to the answer we seek. Jury will ignore the question.

Prosecution: No more questions, your Honor.

Judge: Defense?

Defense: The Defense Calls Mr. Z.

The most important question after the ETS become “common knowledge” is Why?

And I hope when the day comes, when either side ask the questions, that must be asked, I hope those questions reflect an open --rather than a fundamentalist—mindset.

Aliens On Trial (Part 1?)

"I scoff at pettiness... which plays so ruff" Bob Dylan

Ladies and Gentlemen and Extra-Terrestrial Representatives, may we have your attention, please: the World Court of the Federation of Nations will come to order!

The Honorable Judge Stanton Friedman presiding. Please be seated.

Judge Friedman: “Good day to everyone. Would the Clerk please read the charges.

Clerk: The Federation of Nations charges the Visiting Extra-Terrestrial races with Perjury in the First Degree.

Judge: How does the Defendant plead?

Attorney for the Defense: “Your honor, Mr. Z, Representative of the visiting ET races elected by the Galactic Consortium, enters the plea “Not Guilty”.

Judge: As agreed by both the Prosecution and the Defense, and as an expedient, the Court has agreed to permit the designated representatives to argue their positions on this case. I will entertain motions.

Attorney for the Defense: Your honor, I move to dismiss this case due to lack of evidence. On behalf of the Federation of Nations, even the Prosecution agrees that we have no definitive proof that ETs are hurting anyone, anywhere, anytime. He bases his perjury charges on some purported ET abduction and ancient accounts…which the ETs say they were never involved in. So we must ask this question: are we, as a civilized society, going to prosecute our visitors every time someone cries wolf, or in this case, “evil ET”?

Prosecutor: Your Honor, this is ridiculous! Defense, on behalf of these admitted Alien Beings, is asking the people of our world and this jury to dismiss thousands of peoples’ testimonies, even without a hearing of the evidence.

Judge: Hold your horses! No one is going to dismiss this case. A hearing is what we’re all here for. Motion denied. Any other motions from The Extra-Terrestrial Visitors or the Federation of Nations?

Prosecutor: Yes, Your Honor: I ask that Dr. Steven Greer be dismissed as a witness for the Defense.
Judge: On what grounds?

Prosecutor: On the grounds Dr. Greer does not have the least bit of evidence the American Government is doing what he is claiming. Are we going to allow unsubstantiated claims to be treated as evidence? If so, the notion of a just verdict is obsolete.

Attorney for the Defense: I object, Your Honor…

Judge: Everyone simmer down, now. Look folks, someone is abducting and killing our people and our livestock, and if it is not ETs, don’t you think we should at least entertain other ideas? I am sure, with your experience as a prosecutor, handling a witness like Dr. Greer should be easy pickin’s. Motion denied.

Any other motions? Good! Defense will present opening arguments.

Attorney for the Defense: Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury, what we have here is an evil plan by the Governments of the world to keep you in fear of the Aliens.
And how could that be? We have thousands of testimonies from experiencers that these Visitor interactions were, over the long run, a wonderful and important aspect of their lives. When asked if they would give up this experience, how ever initially shocking, a large majority of experiencers said no.

Ladies and Gentlemen, what we have here is simply one species trying to find out about another species. The questions the Extraterrestrials need to ask about us will be the same questions we people of Earth will ask when we go to the stars. And haven’t we all decided --as reasonable people must-- that if the Visitors have been here for a long, long time, if they really wanted to do anything sinister, wouldn’t we know about it by now?

Members of the Jury, the Prosecution claims the Visitors have lied…but he doesn’t say why. We know the governments of many nations have hidden a great deal from us. We also know it is these same governments that have the most to gain --if the Visitors were found to be untrustworthy.

DVD For The Defense: Dr. Steven Greer

And so I must ask you: are the ETs going to be one more group we just decide not to trust --simply because of the way they look or eat, or because of the color --or should I say, the unique, mushroom-like texture-- of their skin? Do we once again want the governments of our nations, or our Federation, to tell us how we should feel? Haven’t we already let our governments interfere too much in our lives?

My fellow citizens of the Federation of Nations: how can we move toward a world view of one, unified people --as these highly advanced Extra Terrestrial Visitors suggest-- if we think as we did before? It’s time to start trusting! It’s time to put aside this 19th century idea, this childish fear of invaders from space. We need to grow up as a people and as a world.

And the gifts! Our Visitors are offering us so much. Think of it: free unlimited energy, galactic travel package discounts! Why, the Visitors’ strategic partnerships with both our public and private sectors will boost our economy! Visitor technology will radically enhance our own universal ID tracker for the growing prisoner population, and the Visitors’ contributions to medi-chip implants for Seniors, infants, and political protestors will reduce management and oversight costs, saving tax-payers trillions! Not to mention the deeply discounted anti-aging serum the Visitors have licensed to our leading pharmaceutical combines…And, as we remind ourselves of the bounty freely offered to us by these gracious Galactic Travellers, who could forget the Visitors’ generous bonus offer, their Free Ride Zero Taxation for the first 100 years of our membership in the greater Galactic Unity, and…

Prosecution: I object! Your Honor, could you please….Defense is trying to bribe the jury!

Judge: Are you through with your opening, sir?

Defense: No, Your Honor, but I will move on. I ask my adversary, the Attorney for the Prosecution of Z and these generous Extraterrestrial Visitors: do people really matter here? The testimony of those closest to the ETs should matter. The benefits, we the people will enjoy, don’t we matter?

What they tell us, the contactees, I mean, is that so many of them end up with fabulous new psychic powers, and then of course, they are thrilled to be able to see into the minds and hearts of these ETs, our esteemed Visitors. Why, the contactee community world-wide is extremely grateful, as we all should be!

And so, Your Honor, and proud citizens of the Federation of Nations who sit today on this historic jury, as an honorable and a properly grateful people, who…

Prosecution: Objection! Your Honor, this is blatant propaganda.

Judge: Sustained. Watch the strokes, Defense. Get back to the facts.

Defense: Yes, Your Honor. Now, members of the jury, we can all agree that on balance, the wonderful gifts The Visitors have given experiencers and the rest of us, and the glorious future they promise us as Galactic Citizens, all these good things prove the Visitors worthy of our trust. Trust them, and trust the evidence, and you will find the only fair verdict is “Not Guilty”.
DVD Steven Greer Presents The Defense:



Prosecution: Ladies and Gentlemen Of the Jury: the Attorney for Defendant Mr. Z representing all the millions --perhaps billions-- of Extraterrestrials out there we can not meet face to face today in this courtroom, claims the psychic contactees know what is in the heart of the Extraterrestrials. We also know ETs are “psychic”. But isn’t the Big Question here, how psychic?

Psychically powerful enough to influence the contactees’ perceptions, that we do know. And what does that kind of power over the awareness of adult humans really mean to the rest of us? What does that kind of power mean to those of us who might not want to be exactly the kind of “psychics” the ETs create…and manipulate? What happens once that kind of psychic control begins? Is this Alien psychic control a gift that keeps on giving?

Yes, the ETS offer us all of these things, but at what price? For the price of mind control, and for global disarmament. And that’s just for starters, that is what we know about them, and that, I submit to you, is terrifying to the rational person.

The Extraterrestrials say Give us your minds, and then give us all your weapons…And I say to you, are we really this foolish --or this blind?

Defense: Your Honor, I object! Prosecution is trying to scare the jury.

Judge: Ok, objection overruled. Let’s get past this, please. And Attorney for the Defense of the Extraterrestrials, do I need to remind you this isn’t the Chamber of Commerce, and you aren’t a lobbyist…yet? This is an international court of law.

Prosecution: If you were to ask a cow in the weeks before you slaughter it, whether the humans in charge thought themselves to be caretakers of that cow, I guess if it could talk, the cow would say yes. That cow would say, yes, the humans assisted at my birth, the humans micro-chipped me so I would never be lost among tens of millions of cattle, the humans fed me scientifically prescribed feed, they vaccinated me against diseases, and they often let me out into sunny fields…The humans were my caretakers, until the day they herded me into the chute with cattle prods, and drove me into the slaughtering house.

Defense: Your Honor, I object: the prosecuting attorney is using disgusting tactics and trying to scare the jury into a “Twilight Zone” or “X-Files” vision of our esteemed Visitors and their good-will relationship to all of humankind.

Judge: The Prosecuting attorney is warned that this is not Saturday night at the movies. Get to the point.
Prosecution: Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury, we will prove logically, and to your satisfaction, how these Extraterrestrials have not told the truth in the past, and --while we don’t know exactly that their plan is of entirely evil intent-- on behalf of the people of Earth, we will present evidence to you which will prove at the very least, these Extraterrestrials have absolutely committed perjury.

If they have committed perjury, then the World Court has no recourse, but to strongly recommend delaying any agreement until adequate reasons are supplied for these false statements by our Visitors...

Judge: Will The Defense call its first witness.

Defense: Your Honor, Defense calls The Federation Of Light.

To Be Continued…

Those Damned Blurry UFO Pictures

You’ve heard it, thought it, wondered about it:
why are UFO videos, photos --and even vetted witness reports-- so full of BLUR?

A massive amount of UFO/craft objects captured on film, video, and digital imagery have one thing in common, and that’s blurry outlines. As in no sharp edges, no detail. I even heard this most common characteristic of UFOs discussed in depth at a MUFON training I attended.

1968 Senor Pedro Chavez, a photographer for La Prensa, on assignment in Sicuani, Peru

Debunkers and assorted fools on the internet have a field day with this single aspect of ufology. But the truth is, blurry is probable --and clear is improbable-- if we are talking real ET craft.

NASA Scientist Paul Hill finds no problem with blurry UFOs and his book Unconventional Flying Objects explains why. [Read Unconventional Flying Objects, A Scientific Analysis, Hampton Roads Publ. Co., Charlottesville, VA, 1995 (ISBN 1-57174-027-9) ]

Photo Taken By Four Professors; Lubbock Lights

But before we go to the expert, I’d like to take a walk down what I call Common Sense Highway, my kind of Highway 61 Revisited. Walk with me a moment…There are plenty of famous well-documented UFO pictures that are clear and plenty that are blurry. Most of the clear pictures of UFO craft are hovering or moving very slowly. In many reports of UFO craft, parts of the craft can clearly be seen to rotate, yet that rotation itself, should not cause the whole image to be blurry.

DVD Clips "Burry UFO"

So here’s an important question. If UFO are Extraterrestrial craft, then what would the Extraterrestrials [Off-Planet Pilots] be using as the primary mode of transportation here?
1. Propellers
2. Jet Engines
3. Rocket Engines.

In the case of ET craft using any of the travel modes from the short list above, shouldn’t images captured of craft using one of these methods have clear edges? And then we have to ask, in our hearts, do we believe this?

Even Before The Nazi Empire

I have, on occasion videoed and photographed jets, balloons, and birds, and have always been able to get clear edges. I have videoed a passenger jet, and, near the engine, of course it showed wavy images, from the jet engine’s heat exhaust; but the wavy effect never distorted the video image of the whole plane.

We treat blurry images as a strong indication of hoaxing, right? I have to admit my WARNING! flag goes up when I see blurry UFO images.

But I am wrong. Dead wrong.

The very strong possibility that these craft are powered by a propulsion system that affects the area around them is a given.

This is not the nineteenth century, although debunkers try to keep us there. I’m 65, and I know Atomic Drives are not going to hack it for travel between worlds. You get that, too, right?

I don’t even want to bring up what I can imagine about the main body of a long-distance traveling ship --say in a thousand years from now. But what the hell, I will: intelligent bio-skins.

Yangay Peru 1967 similar to what I witnessed on the beach in Atlantic City NJ 1962: Joe Capp

In Star Trek we see good movie theatrics showing rockets of plasma discharge from the rear of the craft. But in real life, rockets and those types of devices would have been abandoned long ago in the Star Trek timeline.

And we also see in Star Trek human travelers being affected by inertia at warp ten. Based on what we know now, they’d be butter.

Remember, what we’re seeing in UFO photos is not Star Trek and shuttle craft. Whatever else is true about the travelers in the UFOs we’re seeing, we do know what they are using is beyond Star Trek. Moving sideways at speeds like a thousand-plus miles an hour suggests something far more sophisticated at work here.

There are times when UFO craft have even been witnessed floating like a falling leaf. This could signify, along with other circumstantial evidence, that these craft change their very mass.

So what could be causing this blurriness? Dr. Hill formulates an interesting theory, and I will quote from this great book:

“The quantum mechanical explanation for the indistinct or invisible out line at night is particularly straightforward…”
[After the thoroughly excited molecules and electrons explanation, he continues, as excerpted below…]

“At night when the witness must see the UFO by its own light, it follows if the plasma is fully developed (saturated with ions) the plasma can completely obscure the UFOs, for the critical distance is small. In the more general case where the UFO is operating at a lower radiation the witness can see the UFO surface directly…
The absorption characteristics of the plasma can also account for a daytime hazy or smoky appearance of the Atmosphere around the UFO.”

Blurriness and fuzzy outlines of UFOs are what we would expect in a craft from another world. UFOs use propulsion and engine mechanics completely different than we have. And those propulsion and drive methods do, at times, affect their surroundings. UFO technologies have apparently been developed to cancel inertia and gravity, including mass.

Unless they are conjuring it all up as 100% illusion --an interpretation too many thousands of reliable reports and images contradict-- UFO craft need power, and that power affects external things as part of its normal operations.

Paul Hill is a futurist in all aspects of this work, as was Arthur C. Clark. But we must understand that these Extraterrestrial travelers and their vehicles are far beyond what our best science --and maybe even our best science fiction minds-- now understand.

But what Hill has done is tell us we should be looking very close at these blurry photos and videos because in the end, they may be a signal we are looking at an authentic UFO.
