According to the book, “2019 Chase’s Calendar of Events,” today, June 24, Is “Flying Saucer Day.”
Seventy-two years ago today, June 24, 1947, a Boise, Idaho, pilot “reported seeing pie-plate-shaped unidentified flying objects (UFOs) over Mount Ranier, Washington. Flying at more than 9,000 feet, [Kenneth] Arnold saw flashes of light and then nine ‘saucer-like’ objects flying at incredible speeds. The term ‘flying saucer’ came into currency soon after to describe a UFO.” (1)
To many Earthlings, UFO sightings are baseless reports from highly imaginative, overly medicated or very intoxicated Earthlings.
But skeptics may be convinced otherwise after reading a riveting January 15, 2019, New York Times article about “Project Blue Book.” That was “the code name for an Air Force program set up in 1952 after numerous U.F.O. sightings during the Cold War era...”
Although the “Blue Book” was closed in 1969, the article reported, the U.S. Air Force “didn’t actually stop investigating” U.F.O.s.
The reporters’ startling yet fascinating findings include:
1)Project Blue Book’s purpose was to “explain away or debunk as many reports as possible in order to mitigate possible panic and shield the public from a genuine national security problem: an apparently technological phenomenon that was beyond human control and was not Russian, yet represented an unfathomable potential threat...”
2) “Blue Book compiled reports of 12,618 sightings of unidentified flying objects, of which 701 remain unexplained to this day...”
3)That “...Despite government statements to the contrary, once-secret official documents include detailed reports of dramatic U.F.O. events abroad...”
Their article concludes with the following:
“Scientists may know more about the behavior and characteristics of U.F.O.s and are closer to understanding the physics of how the technology operates, according to A.A.T.I.P. documents and interviews..." The initials stand for the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, which began in 2007.
“...But the government still makes every attempt to keep investigations and conclusions secret, while denying any involvement to American citizens...”
So what’s an Earthling to do?
