Beyond TOP SECRET: America’s UFO Spy Game
(STARpod.org) – Imagine this: your day job requires clandestine interaction with ordinary US citizens who have reported experiences of weird, inexplicable phenomena.
And at the end of the day, you must report your findings to your boss, the Director, and to his boss, the US President.
This isn’t the premise for an “X-files” inspired sci-fi TV series. It was, more or less, the conundrum faced by a handful of US government intelligence persons who were tasked with handling alleged psychics and the scientists investigating their super-human ‘powers’ in the 1970s.
That much is known from the declassified government record.
The issue of an extraterrestrial aspect to this story remains the stuff of rumor and “on background” tales of a “core story” — a tale of government collusion with an alien presence — available in numerous versions, according to taste.
In one version of the core, the US Air Force has been intimately involved with real, flesh and blood aliens, who arrived here in fantastically advanced spacecraft. Other versions of the core are darker and more disturbing: an otherworldly intelligence has been playing mind games with human beings for nefarious purposes.
In the 1990s, Robert Bigelow of Bigelow Aerospace (best known for his “space hotels,” inflatable platforms orbiting the Earth) funded an investigation into the darker side of the core.
Bigelow tapped Dr. Kit Green — a former senior CIA officer who had solved the Bulgarian umbrella poison pellet assassination in the 1970s — for his Science Advisory Board. The core question at the heart of the core story involved the possibility that the human mind was being manipulated using advanced technology.

Another Brazilian Military Reveals UFO Investigation and Observation
[This is an article by A.J. Gevaerd, translated by Marcos Malvezzi.]
Commander of an Army installation in the Brazilian Pantanal area determined the official investigation of spherical nocturnal objects reported to have burned vegetation. Military personnel sighted the UFO and obtained photos
Report by A. J. Gevaerd, editor of the Brazilian UFO Magazine (www.ufo.com.br)
This is the report of a new investigation and interview I just conducted with the Retired Brazilian Army Lieutenant-Coronel Leo Tércio Sperb resident in Rio dos Cedros, a small town in the state of Santa Catarina. The interview was obtained thanks to information given by former VASP Airlines commander, José Américo Medeiros, UFO Magazine contributor, and performed with UFO investigator and volunteer translator of the Brazilian UFO Magazine Luis Medeiros.
The full interview is being transcribed for complete publication on Brazilian UFO Magazine, and what can be now advanced is that the former Army military was involved in a major UFO incident in 1977, the very same year when Operation Prato occurred in the Amazon, a hot year for Brazilian Ufology. Lieutenant-Coronel Leo Tércio Sperb revealed that this new found incident took place when he held the highly important position as commander for the 2nd Frontier Battalion, in the city Cáceres, state of Mato Grosso, West of Brazil.
The former military commander reported that in mid 1977 (he was unable to remember the date precisely) he was informed by his men that a small settlement located somewhere in the middle of the Cuiabá-Cáceres Road was highly excited about sightings of a strange and recurring luminous object that appeared predominantly at night. Having always been opened to UFO issues, and seeing the reports were significant, he sent a first man to do the preliminary investigations.

Poltergeists and the UFO/Alien connection.
By Pat Regan of Supernatural UFO dot com.
What the so-called ‘Experts’ don’t tell you!
The most primitive known accounts of poltergeists appear date back to the ancient Romans; although I would bet older reports existed that were not recorded in text, say back in Celtic times.
Other poltergeist records can be found in the medieval periods in the Far East and parts of Europe. The reports signify unexplainable events such as throwing soil, flying objects, appalling smells, ear-splitting noises, inexplicable lights and ethereal apparitions.
All these things are at times comparable to the still fragmentary reports of contemporary poltergeists and also to some reports concerning UFO or alien sightings, all of which have created panic for many witnesses. Why precisely poltergeist activity occurs in the first place has been under question by so-called experts and scientists for decades.
Poltergeists usually commence and end unexpectedly. The characteristic occurrence can last for numerous hours or even several years in more extreme cases. Would it be too fanciful to even suggest that such unexplained activity could in fact be of an extraterrestrial nature or is this a misleading perception?

MAURY ISLAND NO LONGER A MYSTERY: A UFO HOAX EXPOSED!
by Anthony Bragalia
After six decades the truth has emerged about the infamous Maury Island UFO incident of 1947. It was a hoax. It finds its roots in fiction and fantasy, as revealed in candid and damning interviews with Maury Island UFO “witness” Harold Dahl’s own son and daughter. The hoax is further detailed in a careful re-examination of the “mysterious” figure Fred Crisman.
It is alleged that in June of 1947, seaman Harold Dahl was with his son scavenging for drifting logs near Maury Island in Puget Sound in Washington State when Harold sighted several “donut shaped objects” flying in formation over his boat. He claimed that one of the discs appeared to lose control after being tapped by another disc, spewing out slag and strange pieces of light metal material which hit his boat. The falling UFO debris supposedly injured Harold’s son Charles and killed the family dog. His story was reported to his co-worker Fred Crisman and was later promoted by publisher Ray Palmer.
The event -which has stirred the imaginations of many over decades- was itself born of imagination. It simply never happened. Harold Dahl’s own family and the sage perspective of history now reveal: The only reality about the “incident” was that it was conjured up in the mind of an enterprising and attention-craving 27 year-old schemer and amateur fiction writer.
