In special reports, this week's files cover: "Lightning to Provide Clues to Solar System Origins," NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center and Astrophysical Journal, Acropolis of Baalbek, Lebanon, and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency.
Unidentified Aerial Phenomena sightings were reported over: Alabama, California, Florida, Indiana, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Missouri, New Jersey, New Mexico, Ohio, Texas and Washington.
Sightings of UFOs were also reported in Australia, Canada, China, Czech, Eire, and England in the United Kingdom.
The purpose of these files is to report the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. These Files assume that extraterrestrial intelligent life not only exists, but my hypothesis is that the over a thousand UFOs reported each month represent technologically advanced spacecraft conducting surveillance of Earth. I personally became interested in UFOs when London Control ordered me to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force. Under Project Blue Book, the US Air Force investigated UFOs for more than twenty years; and we continue this research. I believe the God of the universe has spread life throughout the cosmos and UFO's are visiting us in ever-increasing numbers.
NASA researchers have found a new technique --the electromagnetic signature, known as Schumann Resonance that can be detected using NASA's Vector Electric Field Instrument (VEFI) aboard the U.S. Air Force's satellite designated Communications/ Navigation Outage Forecast System (C/NOFS). Every second, lightning flashes some 50 times on Earth. Together these discharges coalesce and get stronger, creating electromagnetic waves circling around Earth, to create a beating pulse between the ground and the lower ionosphere, about 60 miles up in the atmosphere. The discovery could be used to study other planets in the solar system as well and even shed light on how the solar system formed.
More recently, discrete Schumann resonance excitations have been linked to transient luminous events – sprites, elves, jets, and various types of upper atmosphere lightning. Also a new field of interest is using Schumann resonances related to short-term earthquake prediction.
"The frequency of Schumann Resonance depends not only on the size of the planet but on what kinds of atoms and molecules exist in the atmosphere because they change the electrical conductivity," says Fernando Simoes, the first author on this paper and a space scientist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. "So we could use this technique remotely, say from about 600 miles above a planet's surface, to look at how much water, methane and ammonia is there."
Water, methane and ammonia are collectively referred to as "volatiles" and the fact that there are different amounts on different planets is a tantalizing clue to the way the planets formed. By looking at the Schumann Resonance, we can get information about the global density of water around the entire planet. Simoes and his colleagues believe that combining this technique with other instruments on a spacecraft's visit to a planet could provide a more accurate inventory of the planet's atmosphere.
"And if we can get a better sense of the abundance of these kinds of atoms in the outer planets," says Simoes, "We would know more about the abundance in the original nebula from which the solar system evolved."
Note: Hundreds of planets are being found outside our solar system making other civilizations a likely reality. Their spaceships are visiting Earth and evidence suggests they may use these electromagnetic waves of energy to help power their craft. They are often seen hovering above power lines and electrical storms.
A sonic boom heard in California last week had an out-of-this world origin as ”a large meteoric event” according to NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office. Scientists now estimate the blast measured in near 5 kilotons or roughly 1/3 the power of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, Japan during World War II. Bill Cooke of the Meteoroid Environment Office at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, estimates the object was about the size of a minivan, and weighed in at around 154,300 pounds.
"Most meteors you see in the night's sky are the size of tiny stones or even grains of sand and their trail lasts all of a second or two," said Don Yeomans of NASA's Near-Earth Object Program Office at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California. “Large meteors can be seen in the daytime and are many times that size – anywhere from a baseball-sized object to something as big as a minivan.”
The meteor appears to be much more valuable than scientists first thought. Meteorite hunters found fragments of the rock, identified by the "fusion crust" that forms when it burns in the atmosphere. NASA and the SETI Institute in Mountain View, California, also mobilized a search team of about 30 scientists to search for the small black rocks.
The meteorite turned out to be a very rare type of rock called CM chondrite, which makes up less than 1 per cent of the meteorites that fall to Earth. According to Bill Cooke of NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, it is not clear whether it is rare because it easily burns up in the atmosphere or there are just fewer of these rocks in space.
The Murchison meteorite, a large CM chondrite--one of the oldest types of rock in the universe-- that made landfall in Australia in 1969, is now one of the most studied rocks in the world. CM chondrites contain carbon and organic materials such as amino acids. Some believe this type of meteorite may have brought the first building blocks of life to Earth.
The Helmholtz German Research Center for Environmental Health in Munich used high-resolution mass spectrometry to look at the organic content of three Murchison samples. The group found more than 14,000 unique molecular compositions, or collections of atoms, and predicts there may be millions of distinct organic compounds in the meteorite. Collaboration between various US and European institutes has proven the presence of vital nucleobases in the Murchison meteorite. Nucleobases are the very binary bits of DNA, the base pairs that make up the vital genetic information. Uracil and Xanthine were the two of the most exciting components detected. Uracil is Thymines stand-in when RNA is created, and Xanthene is a mutated form of Guanine.
These bases are unquestionably alien - for one, the rock-chemicals are equally left and right "handed" (a property of the physical structure of the chemicals), while the Earth-borne biological equivalents are either one or the other (sugars are right-handed, amino acids are left-handed). Even more fundamentally, the carbon atoms that make these chemicals organic at all are a space born isotope, the not-so-unlucky Carbon-13, while life on Earth is based on Carbon-12. Strikes of such substances may have played a vital role in the development of Earth biology - and with these precious particles literally falling out of the sky, the odds of life off-planet seem better than ever.
Scientists have known for four decades that a supernova probably occurred approximately 4.5 billion years ago, possibly triggering the birth of the sun. The findings suggest that a supernova sprayed a mass of finely grained particles into the cloud of gas and dust that gave birth to the solar system 4.5 billion years ago. Dynamical processes in the early solar system then sorted these grains by size. These size-sorting processes led the grains to become disproportionally incorporated into the meteorites and planets newly forming around the sun.
“It's remarkable that you can look at an isotope like chromium 54 and potentially find out a whole lot about what happened in the very first period of the solar system's formation,” Meyer said. Thanks to http://www.dailygalaxy.com
Baalbek, Lebanon is one of the great mysteries of history and provides evidence of a past super civilization or, at least, a technically advanced civilization of “prehistory.” The stone blocks of the platform are the world's biggest building blocks. The platform and big courtyard are retained by three walls containing twenty-seven limestone blocks, unequaled in size anywhere in the world, as they all weigh in excess of 300 metric tons. Three of the blocks, however, weigh more than 800 tons each. This block trio is world-renowned as the "Trilithon".
This photo taken in 1870s shows the tremendous size of the blocks with a man standing near the bottom left on the hill to compare the size of the stones. The smaller upper stones of Roman date are haphazardly placed on top to form a medieval fortress.
Scholar Zecharia Sitchen claims early Sumerian writings depict the vast platform at Baalbek was a marvel of technology and was built as landing place of the shuttlecraft of the ancient astronauts or Anunnaki. It had been built before the flood in pre-Duluvian times. The Anunnaki (those who from heaven came) came in groups of fifty with the mission to obtain gold apparently to save their planet.
Our own science and engineering today cannot explain them; let alone what their function was. It would seem some unknown culture could move these great stones, place them on top of others, in perfect fit and alignment, before the dawn of our most ancient cultures.
Their style is identical to the earliest cultures of monumental stone we know of like the Egyptian Giza Pyramid, Malta, and the Pre-Incan Peru cultures. Perfectly cut, though smaller, stones were found. The megaliths were not designed as the foundation of the original building, but were meant to be the top. Why? What for? The much later stones of the Roman temple can be seen built behind and on top of them.
This evolution in stonework is remarkable. From the small Roman and Turkish blocks, we go further down to monumental blocks identical with our earliest cultures. Yet lower than this, we come not to primitive mud bricks or shanty-hut foundations, but to the greatest stones ever worked by man.
At the southern entrance of town is a quarry where the stones used in the temples were cut.
A huge block with 28 people shown is considered the largest hewn stone in the world, still sits where it was cut thousands of years ago. Called the "Stone of the Pregnant Woman", it is 21.5m x 4.8m x 4.2 meters in size and weighs an estimated 1,000 tons.
Greek historians wrote about Baalbek as early as 336 B.C. describing that Alexander the Great had moved his Army past Baalbek after defeating the Babylonians on his way to conquer Egypt. Interestingly UFOs were also reported in the sky with red lights in the shape of baskets moving extremely fast. They noted ruins dedicated to the Phoenician sun god Baal were found... The significance of Baalbek is its huge raised platform comprised of stone blocks of enormous weight and size. Historians were told at the time that the stone platform was the oldest on Earth. It's thought to have survived the great flood some 13,000 years ago. The original ruins may have been built by Akkadians some of the first civilizations on Earth.
The Akkadian Empire reached its peak during this time and King Naram-Suen (2291-2255 BC) aggrandized his kingly titles accordingly, calling himself King of the Universe. His name, both contemporary and subsequent to his reign, was prefixed with a star, denoting that he was a god. The Akkadian Empire stretched from the Mediterranean Sea to Iran
The Akkadian Empire fell around 2200 BC, the same time as the decline of the Old Kingdom of Egypt, the Indus Valley in Pakistan, and the Early Bronze civilizations of Palestine, Greece and Crete. It is estimated that a severe drought had been responsible for the decline of these civilizations, and new evidence from the Gulf of Oman has surfaced that it had the worst dry spell in 10,000 years and that it lasted for 300 years. Although there is still no proof that it was the direct cause of the empire's fall, there's a good chance it was a litigating factor.
King Naram-Suen's Victory over the Lullubi
The Egyptians are known to have conquered the Beka Valley city and fortress in the 9th Century B.C. in an area known as Heliopolis. The Egyptians built temples to their sun god Ra on the ancient platform. They are not clumsy artifacts, crude and compromised cuts like Stonehenge. They are perfectly fitted 1,000 ton stones forming a foundation not even a huge Roman temple could encompass.
Baalbek's location is in Lebanese mountains, about sixty kilometers from the Mediterranean Sea coast at 34º latitude and 36º longitude. It was the center burial region in the midst of thousands of rock cut tombs.
When Augustus, emperor of Rome had conquered the region in 27 BC, he ordered that the massive obelisk towering above others at the Karnak temple in Egypt be brought to Rome, but the effort was aborted, when the trophy proved too heavy. Sources give varying estimates of its weight, from 323 tons to 455 tons. Lavishing great architecture on Baalbek then seems totally out of character for the undeniably selfish Rome, which had at the very same time been stealing historic treasures from other countries, such as the obelisks from Egypt.
It makes more sense that Baalbek had something no other place could offer, not even the city of Rome, the heart of the empire. This something may also be the reason why so many people wished to be buried there. Rumors claimed this was where the Gods came to Earth.
It is apparent the huge stones in the retaining wall (platform of the Baalbek temple site clearly look a lot more eroded than the bona fide Roman ruins of the Temple of Jupiter, as well as those of the other two Roman temples also on the site. Therefore, the heavily eroded blocks should be much older. This fact naturally gives rise to a different scenari At Baalbek Rome had found a fabulous readymade foundation, a mighty platform to add a suitably majestic structure to, stamping the Roman eagle upon the whole for the perception of future generations. The acropolis of Baalbek comprises several temples built by Roman engineers at time of Christ over 2000 years ago.
One of the Trilithon foundation stones can be seen in bottom of this view of Jupiter's Temple.
The construction was built on top of earlier ruins which were formed into a raised plaza, formed of twenty-four monoliths, the largest weighing a 1000 tons. The Romans destroyed the previous structures using some of the stones to build their own temples to worship Jupiter. These are thought to be some of finest structures ever built in the Middle East.
The Temple of Jupiter, the principal temple of the Baalbek triad, was remarkable for its 20 meter high columns that surrounded the cella, and the gigantic stones of its terrace. The adjacent temple dedicated to Bacchus is exceptional; it is richly and abundantly decorated and of impressive dimensions with its monumental gate sculpted with Bacchic figures. The Round Temple or Temple of Venus differs in its originality of layout as well as its refinement and harmonious forms, in a city where other sanctuaries are marked by monumental structures.
Acropolis of Baalbek, Lebanon with its colossal structures is a unique artistic creation and an eminent example of a sanctuary of the imperial Roman period. It is located on two historic trade routes, between the Mediterranean coast and the Syrian interior and between northern Syria and northern Palestine. Today the city, 85 km from Beirut, is an important administrative and economic centre in the northern Beqaa valley.
The origin of the name Baalbek is not precisely known. The Phoenician term Baal means 'lord' or 'god' and was the title given to the fortress. The word Baalbek may therefore mean 'God of the Beqaa Valley'.
Historians attribute to Augustus the design of the imperial sanctuary where a significant religious transfer came about to the benefit of Rome. Whatever the case, the Romanized triad of Heliopolis (Jupiter, Venus and Mercury) came to replace the Phoenician triad. It is interesting to note the Roman Gods were names of Planets. The first building work, that of the Temple of Jupiter, began during the reign of Emperor Augustus in the late 1st century BC and completed soon after AD 60 under Nero. The immense sanctuary of Jupiter Heliopolitanus was lined by 104 massive granite columns imported from Aswan and held a temple surrounded by 50 additional columns.
The stone blocks of the Baalbek platform are the world's biggest building blocks and provide evidence we were visited by ancient astronauts. Thanks to http://vejprty.com/baalbek.htm
Weapons of mass destruction (WMD) chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear weapons - and high yield explosives can pose deadly and destructive threats to the U.S. and its allies. The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) works to stop the spread, counter the effects, and prepare for the use of weapons of mass destruction. By making WMD less effective or completely ineffective, we limit their appeal to our adversaries and their potential use as tools of war, provide U.S. forces freedom of action, and protect the homeland.
The Agency engages in the full range of nonproliferation, counterproliferation and consequence management activities identified as essential to combating WMD threats. As both a defense agency and a combat support agency, DTRA creates solutions and delivers the products, training and services to defeat WMD where they are needed – in the hands of the war fighter.
DTRA's works together with other federal agencies, the combatant commands, and international organizations, our allies and countries around the world to stop terrorist use of nuclear weapons. The Agency works with these partners towards the one goal we all share in attempting to make the World Safer. Rumors indicate the organization has been successful in stopping the detonation of weapons of mass destruction in many of the world's major cities.
DTRA is an agile, efficient and integrated organization composed of multitalented, innovative, diverse and principled people. DTRA is headquartered in the Defense Threat Reduction Center at Fort Belvoir, Virginia. From there, DTRA directs the activities of its 1,900 civilian and military employees, many of whom are stationed at locations throughout the world.
WMD in the hands of hostile states and terrorists as one of the greatest security challenges facing the United States.
Ukrainian workers use U.S. provided equipment to eliminate a portion of a SS-24 nuclear missile silo at w:Pervomaisk, Mykolaiv Oblast, Ukraine. The Cooperative Threat Reduction program is providing equipment and services to dismantle 46 such silos in Ukraine."
The Chain of Command for operational purposes (as per the Goldwater–Nichols Act) goes from the President through the Secretary of Defense to the Combatant Commanders who are four star generals or admirals. These are the only men who have knowledge of UFOs and appoint a few designated people with a need to know clearances. The Combat Support program provides the Combatant Commanders with Technical Support Groups (TSGs) who can rapidly and globally deploy to provide the capability to counter the WMD threats.
The commander of United States Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) is the lead combatant commander for integrating and synchronizing global WMD efforts. USSTRATCOM is one of 10 unified commands under the Department of Defense. Its mission is to deter attacks on U.S. vital interests and to ensure U.S. freedom of action in space and cyberspace through a global integrated missile defense operations network. USSTRATCOM controls the US nuclear arsenal and is charged with the missions of space operations, integrated missile defense, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance, global strike, and strategic deterrence. The USSTRATCOM Center for combating weapons of mass destruction is co-located with DTRA at Fort Belvoir, Virginia. Thanks to http://en.wikipedia.org/
Centre -- At about 3 pm on May 4, 2012, I was sitting outside at an RV park enjoying the eastern view at Weiss Lake I noticed a white object high above the lake. For a brief second I thought it was an airplane. When I realized that it could be a UFO, I walked out on the deck to get a better look at it. The object was quite high up in the sky, yet it appeared to be very long. It occurred to me at that time that it was very large. It had columns or windows from one end to the other. There was no sound as it moved in a seemingly straight line. I stood there watching it for about three minutes. I know that UFO's are known to travel in groups, so I looked all around the object to see if there were any others. That was when I noticed another one about a half mile in front of the first one. It looked exactly like the first one. I then focused on the first one again because it was the closest one to me. All of a sudden it seemed to disappear right before my eyes. The sky at that location was clear and blue with no clouds nearby. I then looked quickly toward the other one just as it disappeared behind a small cloud. I waited a few minutes to see if it would reappear on the other side of the cloud, but it never did. A few minutes later my neighbor pulled up and I proceeded to tell him what I had seen. All of a sudden I saw another one. My neighbor also saw it from a distance and dismissed it as a probable airplane. I borrowed his binoculars and headed back over to the dock. As I was trying to focus in on the object, all of a sudden all I could see through the binoculars was a white haze, so I put them down and looked up again. This one had disappeared just as the other two had. It was in about the same location as the first one, so again, there were no clouds nearby. I am certain that the three objects were not airplanes, but UFO's.
Azusa -- Man discovers an unknown aerial object in a photo taken of his car on April 28, 2012. This is a lot more believable than some others. It would have been hard to hoax.
Keep your eyes to the skies! Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
Margate – On May 8, 2012, last night around 11 PM, my husband and I saw a huge triangle shaped craft. It made no sound and it also had five lights that were steady. I was on the phone with my Mom at the time when I first made eye contact. I screamed for my husband to come and see and I snapped three pictures. I called the non-emergency line and the local news. They said they had no other reports. Note: In an interview the witness said that the object was only visible for about 30 seconds and it was flying out towards the Atlantic Ocean. The photos were taken with an inexpensive cell phone camera of low resolution. The above photo has been enhanced by increasing brightness and adjusting the contrast. Photos of these “slow flying triangles” are a rarity. Readers should note that the above photo confirms the witness sighting. The witness sent two photos. One of the photos (see above) clearly showed the light formation (after the photo was brightened) the other photo (not shown) only showed one of the lights. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
NORTH MIAMI BEACH -- A couple were looking out to the northeast over the Atlantic Ocean from their beachfront balcony on May 12, 2012. They saw two large bright lights hovering over the ocean. One of the lights vanished and then suddenly reappeared and moved towards them. The light moved overhead towards the west. The light took on a triangular object appearance as it moved overhead. One of the witnesses took a video with her IPhone. The video “vaguely” shows a triangular pattern of lights, but it is difficult to see. A photo of one of the hovering lights was also taken with the IPhone. A few minutes later another similar object moved overhead from the south. No sound was heard. One of the witnesses called 911 and reported the strange lights. Later the witnesses sighted the objects again.
Note: The witnesses were both interviewed and seem to be quite credible. They were baffled by what they saw. The male witness said that the objects were about 5 times larger than the largest aircraft. The weather was mostly clear. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
GREENWOOD -- On the night of May 5, 2012, between 10 pm and 10:30 pm, I was looking southwest and saw a strange light again but I had my camcorder on me. I was watching when two bright reddish orange lights about treetop level started disappearing and reappearing.
I started recording the objects as they hovered and descended very slowly and disappeared. Then another appeared and I turned my camera back on and the object moved west and vanished. I saw similar objects on June 20, 2011 and June 16, 2008. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Essie -- On January 27, 2011, at 4 AM, I saw a light that might be an airplane. I went to my living room window but couldn't see it anywhere. I decided to go outside to film it as it flew straight up over my head at about 1,500 feet altitude. I could tell that the top of it was spinning around and the bottom was too. The top dome was spinning to the right and the bottom dome was spinning to the left. The entire craft was glowing except for the inner part, which was dark. You could see little lights rotating around from the middle of the craft. There were also lights flickering from the bottom of the craft that was 75 to 100 feet in length and about 40 feet in width. It was a huge wobbling craft. It took off in a split second and disappeared and shut off all the house lights for a second and turned off my camera. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Stockbridge --The photographer mailed the photos taken on May 5, 2012, at 5:47 PM. The photo and enlargement were scanned by me and are posted above.
The witness is a professional photographer. He did not see the object and only noticed it when later viewing his photos. He said that he heard no sound when taking the photo.

Blue Springs -- We were driving on Highway 70/Highway 40 at 1:30 AM, on May 12, 2012. My friend took this picture with her cell phone. It was just hovering there. I have never experienced anything like this before. I don't know how else to explain it except for as a UFO.
Note: The photo looks somewhat compelling. The shape shown in the photo may be due to camera movement and/or movement of the vehicle from which the photo was taken.
Paterson -- On May 10, 2012, I took a video of UFO and will purchase a tripod, and get ready for more. On May 13th, I went out about 7:30 PM, when I spotted a craft. This craft was flying almost like it was flying sideways in a straight line. It was a few miles from Newark Liberty airport and it was not headed that way. I grabbed my iPhone and recorded from my sunroof. I have added screen grabs of the video as well to show you key spots so you know where to look following its path. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Taos -- During a community occupy event in the Three Peaks area I was filming randomly on May 5, 2012. A couple days later, while editing the video and after taking several stills from the video I noticed the object. I reviewed the video and saw that the object was only present in 2 or 3 frames. I used Photoshop to blow up and sharpen the image and found an odd pixilation around the object, and also a different shape suggesting a flash or trail in another version of the image. I made a short loop of the objects motion view on YouTube. Thanks to MUFON CMS
CINCINNATI -- I was outside on a break from work on May 6, 2012 and I was looking up to see an object unlike a bird which rides a wave of air, this thing was not wavering. I would notice a reflection about every 3 to 5 seconds coming from the side of it that faced the sun. I did not panic, as I have seen this before. No one was on the street. I looked up again and it was gone. I drove six miles west after work and saw it again at 3:30 PM. I used my binoculars and it was a flat object rotating end over end with small points and hovering under a cloud. It lasted 20 minutes and disappeared. Thanks to MUFON Thanks to MUFON CMS
PHILADELPHIA -- I was walking my dog on Sunday, May 13th, 2012, at 9:35 pm, and I noticed something strange in the sky. The object was about 75-100 feet away and flying slightly above a house. This circular object was as wide as a normal row home, hovering around 10-15 feet above the rooftops. It had a green glow around it, with blinking red and blue lights around it. I was able to snap one picture, though it was poor quality, before the object disappeared. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Brownfield – On May 2, 2012, while flying south toward Seminole, Texas in a helicopter under night vision goggles, myself and another crewmember observed a small triangular shaped craft in front of another larger triangle. There were many lights observed on the bottom of the craft as it flew fairly fast north at around 20,000 feet msl or so. There was nothing particularly unusual about the flight characteristics however its odd shape caught our attention. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com
SEATTLE -- I was on my nightly walk on May 15, 2012, as I was headed south towards downtown and saw 20 to 25 orbs of lights in a line stretching from the north to south in groups of threes. As each group of UFOs flew over the city the lights would dim and you could see the circular form of the objects. There was a single object that was at the end of the fleet and it turned and went northwest as the rest continued south. Seeing a fleet of 20 to 25 UFO's is unreal. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Townsville, Queensland -- At 6:15 pm, on May 4, 2012, a red colored body was seen moving from NW to SE high in the sky. The object was so high that there was no sound; however, the object remained in view for about 10 minutes once noticed. It was traveling past the moon when we first noticed it. It did not have an exhaust trail and it appeared to be oblong with red and gold coloring. We checked to make sure the sun, which was behind us and setting, wasn't the cause of the coloring, but it was not high enough to be noticeable. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com
Steinbach, MB -- Driving home from my daughter's house I saw something very strange flying very fast in the distance in front of me on May 8, 2012. It was a cloudless sky just outside of New Bothwell, Manitoba about 2100 hours. In the distance I saw a pulsating bright white light, flying fast and as high as a small aircraft would be. I saw no shape to this lighted object. It was blinking; it blinked three times very quickly then moved forward. It was not flying in a straight line, nor was its speed consistent. After its three pulsating blinks, it looked as if it took a new position, then three blinks before. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com
Tianjin -- On May 2nd, 2012, at about 10 pm, Beijing time, my youngest son came out of his bedroom and asked about a "weird light in the sky that was changing colors". Without getting up, I dismissed him back to bed by telling him it was likely a planet. I wish I had listened to him sooner. A few minutes later I retrieved a pair of binoculars, then my 40x Sony Handy cam camcorder. As you can see from my YouTube posts, the lights go through a long pattern of transition rotating through about seven different lighting sequences. The object moved very slowly to the northwest, toward Beijing. Our home is about 100 kilometers from Beijing. I have no idea what this flying object was. Two airliners flew over but this object had no sound and no silhouette. With the naked eye, the bottom light looked like it was quickly changing colors from red, to green to blue, back to red, but the video doesn't really pick up on this. I am guessing it was 3,000-5,000 feet up in the air. Both my sons, ages 12 and 18, along with my wife observed this craft. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com
Prague -- Two aircraft flying in trail about four kilometers separation were observed on May 1, 2012. There was a light emitting from them unlike lights on regular aircraft. They were orange balls which shined in different hues, but it was strange and unlike anything I've seen. Thanks to Peter Davenport, Director National UFO Reporting Center http://www.UFOcenter.com
Dublin -- I stopped near the Liffey River noticed what I thought it was a Sea Flare Rocket fired from the sea. In a few seconds the bright light expanded, and was heading to my location. I grab my telephone and was seeing a Disc UFO with the orange light at one edge and a fuzzy base like fog rotating in brown color on August 15, 2010. This was a really physical disc, except the base was like a moving cloud. It flew slowly above my head silently and I took this photo, but the cell phone only shows a bright light. It changed direction and crossed the river and stopped no more than 10 meters away from me. I spotted a blue beam on the main monument in the center of Dublin.
Then beam rotated to the opposite side of the river above the buildings and started moving again like slow motion. Then it ascended out of sight to the west. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Spennymoor CO, Durham -- The witness has not volunteered any information regarding this photo. Only the date, April 2, 2011 and location were provided and this was only after this information was requested. We don't know what the witness saw, if the photo was edited or enhanced and what type of camera was used. Thanks to William Puckett, Director http://www.UFOsnw.com
LIVERPOOL -- My partner and I went outside after seeing a very bright object in the sky. We have seen this same object on three other occasions. We took photos on May 11, 2012 , at approx 10.00 pm. It appears in the camera shot but not visible to the naked eye. The objects seem to be moving all over the place; the camera was on 2048 by 1536 resolution. An internet search shows others have seen objects in the Liverpool skies. Thanks to MUFON CMS
Harare -- On May 2, 2012, I saw a UFO at 2:29 pm, I was looking at an Ethiopian Airlines plane that had just turned after taking off and I saw an object behind it! It was really high in the sky and changed shape a few times from being circular to being elongated, when it was circular it was white, pretty easy to see, when it was elongated it was a grayish color. It was about the size of a star as it stayed as a circular shape for about five minutes. It seemed to move but it was so high that I couldn't see if it was moving, then it came a bit lower and grew in size and just zoomed off so fast and disappeared!

I will be speaking on Saturday May 19, 2012, at 11 am at the West Hartford Methodist Church Fellowship Hall (Berkshire Road and New Britain Avenue West Hartford). The talk will be about my experiences in the Air Force chasing UFOs and the consequences of alien visitation.
I was sitting at my desk, pondering how I could get people interested in getting my work of the last thirteen years. I have put together a DVD of Filer's Files with hundreds of great photographs and UFO sightings.
Additionally, I have decided to include my book within the DVD that includes George Ritter's exciting abduction story by Linda Moulton Howe. Broadcaster David E. Twichell has also included much of his excellent dialog for a donation of only $50.
