The Travis Walton Experience

It’s an interesting concept, but Travis believes that perhaps the reason he saw two attractive looking human beings (that were white) was actually an illusion. He believed, the second time he encountered beings onboard the ship in which he woke up on, he was possibly seeing something that he would desire and feel safer around. This illusion was cast by possibly the alien beings in which scared him when he first awoke. For obvious reasons this would make sense, to give him a false sense of security and calm while they led him back to a room in order to put him back to sleep. He spoke to the woman and man that greeted him while he was in what appeared to be a control room for the craft, but they did not speak a word back to him.

Why are they always humanoids? Some skeptics have very often add to the discussion. This is an important question and many speculate that perhaps the human body form is a common adaptation to an environment like ours on Earth. However, many experiencers have mentioned seeing mantis like beings present in rooms that a traditional “Grey” humanoid being had been in. It is entirely possible that heptapods are out there in the universe as well traveling the stars. It is not something that has been reported though by many, if not, any so far.

Form usually follows function, that’s what Travis cleverly points out. Evolutionary adaptation is what makes a platypus and a duck share similar features, but inherently they have very different genetic roots. Both have a bill or beak in which the duck bill is so famous for. Both have webbed feet, but the duck is a bird with feathers and a platypus is mammal with fur. There are many other differences, however the point is that these two different animals evolved to thrive in a matched environment in which they both share. Perhaps Travis’ point is that a humanoid form is common throughout the universe because intelligent life more commonly evolves and thrives in an environment like Earth’s. Of course, intelligent life may evolve and thrive with technology to the extent of traveling interstellar without the same environmental conditions here on Earth.

Spreaking with Michael Schratt - ALL UFOs are MAN MADE?

Last year I got the opportunity to interview Michael Schratt. One of the leading “Spooky Airplane” researchers in the world. Why? Because apparently the United States military has a pretty well vested and busy spooky airplane building history.

I first found out about Michael Schratt when I was in my early 20’s. I would watch video interviews that Kerry Cassidy did on her website Project Camelot. Even though this was 13 years ago, Michael seemed like a pro when talking about delta shaped triangular aircraft that were supposedly secretly in development by third party contractors with black budget funding. Interestingly enough those old videos where he showed patents and clearly illustrated diagrams of how the craft looked and were designed which he found from repositories across the United States have vanished, as you can see below.

Before Michael allowed to let me interview him, he was very careful about what I was allowed to ask him and expressed a lot of fear for what could happen to him if he did speak about something which may be sensitive to the United States government. I completely understood this approach and purposely avoided any questions about Aroura craft or anything to do with what people had dubbed the TR3B craft. Even still, Michael has some personal biases towards the UFO subject as he expressed to me that he believes all of the UFOs seen are man made. Perhaps that’s backed by his own faith or some kind of interest in which he has had in proving “Nut & Bolts” engineering marvels over the years. One can become so attached to their research and their initial findings that any new discoveries of information can become clouded by previous theories. I’ve seen this happen before. However, something tells me that someone had a stern talking to Michael about what he could or could NOT talk about in terms of this subject. Therefore, the rest was off limits. We are talking about a man who did Secret Space lectures featuring TR3B or Aroura test craft illustrations in the presentations and the thumbnails for youtube videos that were at one time online. No longer to be found.

I think when Michael says that some things will be lost forever to us in the history of the UFO subject, I think he quite literally is speaking about things he is no longer allowed to talk about from his past research exploits.

That’s the truth. We are talking about a man here who did a famous presentation at the International UFO Congress in which he told the story of Dan Burish. Supposedly Dan was an experiencer who worked at a secret underground facility that housed a captured alien and the alien’s space craft. So it goes, Dan became empathetically attached to this alien and helped it escape, which in Michael’s words “Perhaps, this action saved Earth from hostilities with E.Ts.”

This was Michael Schratt, an adamant alien believer who recently is adamantly apposed to talking about.

I respect his work and I understand that people can have a change of heart or mind about certain things they were involved with in the past. I too have had that happen for me. But, I am not someone who is afraid to talk about the E.T visitation theory.

Top Rules of Engagement Used By UFO Debunkers

Having a chance to sit down with Stanton Friedman was something I planned for many years. I say this because I attended one of his lectures, I think in 2014 at International UFO Congress where he quite brilliantly outlined the “Rules of a Debunker”. This lecture burned into my heart and after this I saw the same behavior or rules of engagement play out over and over before my eyes. That was the amazing thing about Stanton, he didn’t get personal, he got even. He understood quite well through a very logical process that eventually the truth would prevail in any good discussion, but when a debunker enters the discussion, they already have a targeted objective in mind. Most of the time when a debunker is losing the battle of words through bad logic or ill informed facts, they will always default to personal attacks and sensationalist reductionism.

You’ll notice this in some of debates between Philip J. Klass and Stanton. You will see it from Bill Nye the “science guy” and all the way to the bottom of the barrel like Gufon (Richard Giordano). They always follow the same tactics. Attack the person, don’t attack the data…

My Friend Bill Miller The Sasquatch Researcher

Not long before I handed this coffee mug full of water to Bill, he was climbing two sets of 8 steps as if it were Mount Everest. Bill had a bad back and in fact had recently undergone surgery to fix it. I wish he had told me that before we proposed the climb, but he was heart set on telling me the goods. We got him seated in front of this window on the top floor of a native Canadian Salish tribe’s band hall. We popped into Harrison Hot Springs, British Columbia, for the weekend to check out the tribe’s yearly celebrated Sasquatch Dayz festival. That’s right, they have a festival to honor the creature’s existence and once I sat down to find out more, I’ve been hooked to the lore of this creature’s existence ever since. That was, 8 years ago.

As a new comer to this study, and really only being interested in UFOs previously, I had a lot to learn. And boy did I ever. Bill Miller had the goods. He honestly answered every question with a very logical conclusion which alluded to the answer “maybe there still was a scarce population of ancient higher primates indigenous to the pacific north west of North America. We started our conversation with of course the hotly debated Patterson-Gimlin film. Which almost literally knocked my socks off when I saw it downstairs playing in color corrected 1080p. I have a keen eye, and when I say fur covered breasts, I thought “That ain’t a man in suit”, and I had to know more. I was very fortunate to have met Bill which allowed me to eventually publish my second film The Unwonted Sasquatch back in 2016.

Revisiting Travis Walton's Abduction Case

It’s Not Spectacle, It simply Happens

One of the most candid and believable things about Travis Walton’s case is the way in which he goes about explaining his story. Taking a look back at the interview in which I completed at the iUFOC of 2018, you realize when listening to Travis that he speaks about his experience of being abducted in a very practical way. He also relates scientific facts of what we know today about our known universe and discoveries in science since his experience over 20 years ago. I think this lends to his credibility because it’s not as if he’s preaching or trying to convert people into some kind of UFO religion, in fact he prefers that people don’t subscribe to the “Wooo”(the spectacle) or the stories that almost sound fictional in nature. He likes to think that we are not alone in the universe and his experience was probably one of many in which “someone from way over there” came to have a look at us. In this important case, to have a look at him. Travis never wanted money or fame for this experience and in fact we conducted this interview while never being asked to pay a dime. Over the years I have met so many people in this research field that literally are dying for the attention and if not that, at least a good smack of money to tell their story. I have no doubt that Travis has made a little money off selling his story to Hollywood in the 90’s (Fire in The Sky) and also his personal memoir of the same name which came out afterwards as a book. Money makes the world go round and obviously one needs to sustain their lifestyle with some kind of work, so I don’t fault him for that. Heck, look at the churches around the world. Not faulting them at all, but they’ve collected trillions of dollars in donations from telling the same story over and over again to the masses. I guess what I’m trying to say is there is value in whatever you have to offer this world. I just think Travis Walton’s account seems to be authentic and the skeptics out there who have worked hard at debunking him are definitely on some kind of payroll, pushing their own anti-thesis.

CIA UFO DISCLOSURE CASE FILE #4

U.F.O. Landing Is Fact, Not Fantasy, the Russians Insist (New York Times Headline Oct. 11th 1989)

Another intriguing declassified CIA file we will look at, occurred in Russian and has gone down in UFO history. The CIA once again demonstrates their deep interest in UFO/Extraterrestrial activity around the globe. This time in the Soviet Union in the midst of the cold war. This declassified file, in which the agents deployed in this nation included a complete and detailed compendium of notes, of the Voronezh case that occurred there.

On the afternoon of September 2nd 1989, a group of children were playing in the Yuzhni park, in the city of Voronezh, southeast of Moscow,  and witnessed a mysterious object land in the park where they were playing. According to reports, two beings emerged from the object that were accompanied by something that was described as a kind of robot. The stories indicate that the beings were very tall and that when the children saw the occupants of the craft emerge, one of the children ran away in fear. However, one of the three beings shot this boy with something like lightning, which paralyzed the child. Immediately thereafter, the beings and the small robot like device, left in the same mysterious way as they had arrived. A large circular metallic like craft that had no visible propulsion system.

In the following days, the newspapers that were included in the declassified report of the CIA, spoke of the work carried out by scientists, police officers, researchers and journalists. And it is even noted that a team of scientists from the Moscow geophysics laboratory confirmed the landing site of the UFO.

As can be noted, this recent release of de-classified files by the CIA contains startling revelations about the cases that they have investigated. In many ways the information contained in these files is far more amazing than that which was released in June of 2021 in the so called “Pentagon papers”.

Look out for our next article as we continue to dig deeper into this latest CIA declassification.

CIA UFO DISCLOSURE CASE FILE #3

John Fitzgerald Kennedy’s UFO Research

Undoubtedly, some of the documents that have generated the most controversy in the recent declassification from the central intelligence agency are those related to President John Fitzgerald Kennedy and his interest in UFOs. 

Previously in 2011, the researcher and writer William Lester, through the Freedom of Information Act, obtained a memorandum, which provided evidence of the way in which John F. Kennedy was involved in the subject of  extraterrestrial visitation. The letter was written by President John F. Kennedy to the CIA chief on November 12th 1963, just ten days before his assassination. In the letter, Kennedy demanded that highly confidential UFO documents be shown to him. Kennedy's interest was not incidental, since previously, he had witnessed a UFO for himself.

According to the researchers of these documents, Kennedy's reasons were legitimate, as he expressed concerns that in the Soviet Union a large number of sightings were being recorded, and he feared that the Soviets could misinterpret the presence of these objects as an act of aggression on the part of North America. 

In fact, in the memorandum declassified by the CIA, in addition to the petition regarding UFOs, President Kennedy expresses his desire to cooperate with the former Soviet Union in mutual activities in outer space. 

Kennedy, was very passionate about the study and conquest of space, him being the man who launched the program that took man to the moon of course. It is possible that Kennedy's interest in reaching our natural satellite originated with his interest in the extraterrestrial visit.

This document, which is known as the burned memorandum, was leaked to the media and originates from the Central Intelligence Agency. According to the information released, it belonged to a file that was being destroyed, but was rescued at the last moment. 

The document would have gone unnoticed, had it not been for the discovery of a character contained therein, named Lancer, who was asking the director of the CIA, John A McCone about the activities of Majestic Group 12. It is of course now a well rumored group to have possibly existed. Some may have called it the UFO Working Group, others may have called it another name within the intelligence service, however there has long been an interest in UFOs from a defense perspective behind the scenes as we have heard about AATIP in recent years. These groups are known to be ultra-secret working groups in charge of investigating UFO/Extraterrestrial activity in the United States and the rest of the world. As it turns out, Lancer, was the code name assigned by the CIA to president John F Kennedy.

Apart from everything else, these documents reveal the involvement of the then leader of the American Union with the UFO phenomenon.

CIA UFO DISCLOSURE CASE FILE #2

UFO Chased by Fighter Pilot in Peru 1980

The next file declassified by the Central Intelligence Agency is related to one of the best known and most outstanding cases in history, in that it reports for the first time, the encounter between a fighter jet and an unidentified flying object. 

However, this case itself went much further and stands out from many others, since it relates to how the fighter plane opened fire on the unknown visitor. 

The events described indicate that on April 11th 1980, at 7:15 in the morning. Whilst 1,800 men were practicing drill formation at the La Joya air base, in Arequipa southern Peru, they noticed the presence of a strange object flying overhead in the sky, very close to the air force barracks.

Immediately, the commander of the Peruvian air force, Carlos Vasquez Zegarra, ordered fighter pilot Oscar Santa Maria Huerta to get into his plane and shoot down the UFO.

The intruder, CIA documents point out, had not responded to the military base's communication attempts and, being one of the few bases in South America that had Soviet weapons, the Peruvian military suspected that the strange intruder was a device of espionage, so they decreed that it was necessary to intercept and neutralize the object.

Colonel Santa Maria Huerta, quickly boarded his aircraft and took off in order to reach the intruder who was presumed to be an enemy spy. However, what happened thereafter shocked everyone involved. This craft was witnessed by everyone on the base.

Immediately after liftoff, Colonel Huerta flew to 2,500 meters and zeroed in for a direct attack. 

“I reached the necessary distance and shot a burst of sixty-four 30mm shells, which created a cone-shaped ‘wall of fire’ that would normally obliterate anything in its path,” The pilot unloaded powerful howitzers rounds directly upon the unknown object and just one of those shells would destroyed a small craft, but the huge destructive bullets had no impact whatsoever!  

He expected if this was a  balloon like the base personnel first assumed, this first round of fire would have at least popped a hole in it and gas would soon escape deflating it.

According to declassified official reports, the UFO/UAP had a dome in the shape of a spotlight, which was incorporated into a circular base. According to Colonel Santa Maria Huerta, it was as if the UFO repelled the blast of these powerful bullets with some kind of invisible shield.

The object then began to ascend rapidly, 500m ahead of the Sukhoi-22. In response the pilot raised the altitude of his plane giving chase to the UFO, whilst informing the control tower of the base that he would now initiate combat procedures. The pilot took chase of this UFO to the city of Camana, 84km from the base.

The military plane was now flying at 950km per hour trying to get close to the UFO, but without success. 

Whenever Huerta increased the speed of his plane, the UFO always matched it, maintaining the same distance between them. The visitor acted as if he could anticipate the actions of Huerta because when he had the UFO in his sights, it quickly rose again. On the third attempt, the object remained static and edged the colonel to make a series of turns, an opportunity that Huerta took advantage of to return to an attack position. However, once again the intruder rose away swiftly. 

“I began closing in on it until I had it in perfect sight,” “I locked on the target and was ready to shoot. But just at that moment, the object made another fast climb, evading the attack. I was left underneath it; it ‘broke the attack’.”

This action was repeated on several occasions, until they reached an altitude of 19,200 meters, a position in which the Peruvian aircraft, of Russian origin, now flying at a supersonic speed of 1850 kilometers per hour, had reached what is called the maximum ceiling height. 

Huerta’s jet was running low on fuel and after this realization he decided to end his attack attempt and instead angle the craft to do a fly by. The UFO responded by not advancing out of his reach and he was able to catch up to it. When Huerta was 100m away he realized what it was.

“I was startled to see that the ‘balloon’ was not a balloon at all. It was an object that measured about 10 meters in diameter with a shiny dome on top that was cream-coloured, similar to a light bulb cut in half”.

“The bottom was a wider circular base, a silver colour, and looked like some kind of metal. It lacked all the typical components of aircraft. It had no wings, propulsion jets, exhausts, windows, antennae, and so forth. It had no visible propulsion system.”

“At that moment, I realized this was not a spying device but a UFO, something totally unknown. I was almost out of fuel, so I couldn’t attack or maneuver my plane, or make a high-speed escape. Suddenly, I was afraid. I thought I might be finished.

Huerta successfully made it back to the base, having to glide some of the way due to his lack of fuel. All the while watching the object in his mirrors with paranoia that it might follow him. And yet, the object did not pursue. It stayed in it’s place that he had left it for the next 2 hours while the whole base looked up in wonder. Huerta soon debriefed the encounter to his superiors after landing safely.

Subsequently, Huerta participated in various media interviews, narrating his experience, and expressing his surprise at having had an encounter with an object that far exceeded the maneuvers of any known plane at that time. His observations seem to describe deployment of unknown advanced technology, which allowed the object to remain at rest and move instantly at high speeds. An event widely known in the world of UFO investigation, and that today thanks to the declassification of the Central Intelligence Agency we can establish it as one of the most solid cases in history.

CIA UFO Disclosure Case File #1

Japan Airlines Flight 1628 UFO Incident

On December 27th 2020, the president of the United States Donald Trump signed a decree into law, promoted by congressional senators, which obliged all defense and intelligence branches to deliver all the information concerning the presence of the so-called unidentified aerial phenomena. (UAPs) Formerly UFOs

Less than 2 weeks later on January 7th, in an unexpected move, the central intelligence agency was the first organization to comply with the order. 

Through the civil organization the black vault, the CIA published an extensive archive of more than three thousand documents related to extraordinary events reported in different countries, as well as in the United States. 

This is the first in a series of articles in which we will examine the content of these recently released archives, and reveal details of the reports which clearly show the decades of involvement, and enormous interest that the CIA has had in the UFO phenomenon.

The first declassified file examined details a dangerous UFO encounter, which was widely publicized in the media, albeit briefly, at the time. 

However, as the official declassification of this incident by the CIA reveals, we now know that this was in fact a real event, which was investigated at that time.

The file records an incident which happened on the night of November 17th 1986, when flight 1628, a cargo plane owned by Japan air lines, flying the route Iceland to France (On a in-direct Reykjavík to Anchorage section), reported at 17:11 hours, the presence of two unidentified flying objects that were very close to its position. The encounter occurred when the aircraft was flying above Anchorage, Alaska. 

In the flight cabin was Captain Kenju Terauchi, together with a first officer and a flight engineer. 

The objects came dangerously close and it seemed as if the aircraft was being escorted by the objects. Captain Terauchi then decided to radio the Anchorage air traffic control to ask if there were more planes in the area. The answer from the controller was “negative”.

After a few moments Captain Terauchi and his crew were now all observing that the two objects were less than one kilometer away, and were heading directly towards them on a collision course.

Despite the close proximity of these mysterious objects, the Anchorage air traffic controller was still unable to detect the intruders on his radar. So he decided to contact the nearby Elmedorf military base to report the situation, and ask about the possibility that any military aircraft were flying in the area. The answer was “negative”, so the controller asked if the objects appeared on the more sensitive military radars.

Upon checking, the military officer confirmed that he had managed to register a weak signal from another object, only now, it was behind the Japanese aircraft. Captain Terauchi is immediately informed, but he and his crew continue to observe the phenomenon head-on. 

Shortly after however, it was established that the aircraft in fact had unknown traffic both in front and behind. Anchorage air traffic control asked the captain if he required the support of the air force to intercept the intruders, and at that very moment the cabin of the plane was illuminated by a blinding light, startling the crew. The declassified report contains subsequent testimony from Captain Terauchi, which states that this bright light was also accompanied by an intense heat.

The important thing to point out here is that these recently declassified documents of the CIA faithfully relate the details of this extraordinary event.

However, the surprises contained in this report do not end there. 

At one point Captain Terauchi, turned to look outside to the left of the plane, and then observed a huge object, which he described later as looking like a kind of walnut that measured the equivalent of two aircraft carriers! The object had positioned itself right next to his aircraft. Faced with the danger that this represented, the captain requested an altitude change in order to avoid a possible collision. 

Air traffic control immediately authorized him to ascend to 35,000 feet. But upon receiving this order, the captain looked out of the window again, and to his surprise the colossal object had disappeared. The crew had a moment of relief, but unfortunately it was short lived, as with another look outside, he again observed the giant craft flying next to him . 

At that point air traffic control asked captain Terauchi to perform an extraordinary maneuver, in which he would have to fly around the object 360 degrees in order to try to identify the visitor. But once again, just as the captain was preparing for this move, the UFO completely disappeared.

In the CIA documents, it is clear that the agency investigated this matter in a very particular and detailed way. The official investigation of these events began quickly, and the case was reported to the media. Captain Kenju Terauchi gave several televised interviews, where he narrated his experience. However, many people believe that he was subsequently silenced, as he soon disappeared from the media spotlight. All of these events and the FAA tracking data was also confirmed by John Callahan who was the Division Chief of Accidents and Investigations Branch of the FAA in Washington, DC. In his testimony he described the event that was transcribed onto paper and afterwards how he and anyone who had knowledge of this event were called into a meeting by the CIA. The CIA agents instructed all who had access to this information to bring their reports to them and this was confiscated. However, John Callahan knowing that this was a very significant event in aviation history, kept his copy of the FAA data and shared this with Dr. Stephen Greer’s Disclosure project in the early 2000s.

Thirty five years after this extraordinary event, the Central Intelligence Agency has presented this case file in the first days of January 2021. A fact which itself reveals that the agency showed a very particular interest in this remarkable encounter. What else do they know about the UFO/UAP phenomenon?
