From: News Of The World newspaper.Date: Sunday march 3rd, 1996.FLYING SAUCER SCARE AT BALMORALBut UFO vanishes into thin air as jets roar in.Exclusive by David LeslieRAF jets chased a UFO from the Queen's Balmoral home.Two Harrier GR7 jump-jets were scrambled on Wednesday after localsreported seeing a light over the Scottish castle.One witnes claimed the RAF planes appeared to be locked in a dogfightwith the UFO. The light appeared just after 10pm and was seen clearlyeight miles away in Ballater.One local said: "It seemed to appear from nowhere right over Balmoral. Within minutes two jets had zoomed in and appeared to bechasing it. They seemed to climb very quickly, almost standing on end.It was almost as if they were in some sort of dogfight with thelight."Another revealed: "It was like something out of a science fictionfilm. The sky was clear and suddenly a circular light was overBalmoral. It didn't seem to come from any particular direction, it wasjust there all of a sudden.""Next thing all hell broke loose as the jets roared in. They wereshooting around in circles.""Suddenly the light vanished and after circling the castle the planesflew off in the same direction from which they came."Security around the Royal Family's Highland home has been tightenedsince the IRA ceasefire ended.And a strict exclusion zone bans all aircraft from the skies above the55,000 acre Balmoral estate on Deeside. None of the Royal Family wherethere when the scare happened.An RAF spokesman said: "There were two aircraft in the area. Theycould have been on some kind of exercise. Pilots are not going toreport such things as UFOs to anyone and I've been unable to getanything out of them."Balmoral lies on a line runing North from the Lothians on which strange lights - thought to be flying saucers by UFO investigatorshave been reported.
From: Gary Morris Source: Ayrshire Leader newspaper.Date: Thursday 22nd Feb 1996.'UFO WAS NO SHOOTING STAR'A helicopter from HMS Gannet at Prestwick Airport was scrambledafter several sightings of a UFO were reported.The star-like object travelling at an incredibly fast speed wasspotted by some people throughout Ayrshire and the rest of Scotlandlast week.One eye witeness, John Reid, from Girvan said: "There was no way itwas a shooting star".John, a retired caretaker, was walking his dog along the beach when hespotted the UFO overhead."It came out of the sky at a really steep angle and was just like areally bright star. I've seen lots of shooting stars but this thingdropped so fast that there was no way it was one of them. I've neverseen anything like it !".An hour after John's sighting, a helicopter from HMS Gannet was sentto Jura to investigate a similar sighting there. However, all thehelicopter crew found was some burning heather on the hills.Malcolm Robinson, regional organiser for the British UFO ResearchAssociation, is not ruling out the possibility that the sightings arelinked to a Chinese satellite which is due to crash to Earth any daynow."There is no denying that UFO sightings in Scotland are on theincrease and we are investigating the possibility that the recentsightings are linked to the Chinese satellite.""About 95% of UFO sightings turn out to have a natural explanation,but that still leaves 5% unexplained".Mr. Robinson also linked recent sightings to secret Governmentaircraft, which, he said, "the Government would be quite happy to hideunder the guise of UFOs".The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) and local air traffic controllerswould not comment on the subject of UFOs.
From: Gary Morris Source: Ayrshire Leader newspaper.Date: Thursday 229th Feb 1996.AYRSHIRE A UFO HOTSPOTAyrshire is a hot spot for aliens with several people saying they'vehad some close encounters with UFOs.Following last week's article in the Ayrshire Leader about recent UFOsightings, dozens of Leader readers have come forward with their ownexperiences of mystery flying objects. One man believes he may havebeen adbucted by aliens.The man, who wishes to remain anonymous because he says few peoplewould believe his story, was driving from work to his home inKilmarnock late at night, when he experienced the strange phenomenon."As I was driving, a bright light came towards the front of the carand then there was a flash and the car stalled. Time seemed to havelapsed and the next thing I knew it was two hours later.""It was a weird and scary experience and I find it hard to explain.I've been contemplating going under regresive hypnosis to try and findout exactly what happened."One of the mose common sightings amongst the callers appears to be avery bright light in the sky which moves erratically sideways and upand down, as well as often staying motionless.However, Malcolm Robinson of BUFORA, says satellites are oftenvisible to the naked eye and people would be surprised at themanouvres they can perform.This may offer an explanation to the sightings, however, as theLeader has learned in the past week, anybody who has ever seen a UFOwill testify that it was not something as simple as a satellite.
From: Doug Roberts Source: The Horley Mirror (Horley, Smallfield, Burstow, Hookwood,Charlwood) Date: 29th February 1996.Hi Dave,Another article from my local paper - looks like it's Venus spottingseason!'LIKE NOTHING I'VE EVER SEEN' A HORLEY man has photographed something out of this world to add tothe burgeoning Horley Mirror X files.But it is uncertain if John Henderson's picture is a UFO or a nearbyplanet.Skygazer John took his snap when he spotted an unusual light in thewestern sky from his Balcombe Road home one evening."I thought it was too bright to be a star." said the 31-year-oldflight attendant. "I watched it for about an hour as it moved acrossthe sky and down over the horizon. Around the top left was an orangedisc and at the bottom it was deep blue.""Working in the aviation industry, I can definately say that it's notan aircraft or anything I've ever seen from an aircraft cockpit." Johnsuspected that the UFO could be the rogue Chinese satellite which isexpected to re-enter earths atmosphere, or perhaps a passing comet.But Dr Jacqueline Milton of the Royal Astronomical Society said that amore likely candidate is Venus, currently shining brightly in thewestern evening skies."I strongly suspect that the sighting was of Venus at a lowaltitude," she said. "The orange and blue colouring could occur because the atmosphere canact like a prism distorting colours and causing it to twinkle andflash."If people don't look at the sky a lot they are sometimes at a loss torelate to unusual sightings."UFO sightings have come flooding into the Horley Mirror since aspate of unexplained objects were spotted over Gatwick.[The picture accompaning this article showed a bright white streakwith a red tint on the bottom side and a blue tint on the top. Besidethe streak there is what appears to be a stationary star.]
From: Andrew Espeland Source: Burton Mail.Date: Wednesday February 28, 1996.Dave,The following articles perhaps don't say much, but there seems to havebeen quite some activity in the 20 miles around Burton in the last fewmonths.Regards,Andrew (Espe on irc).QUEER GOINGS-ON ABOVE BURTONPolice were today playing down reports of queer goings-on in the nightskies above Burton.Stargazers across East Staffordshire saw a bright light in the heavensabove Tutbury between 8pm and 9pm on Monday, which police said was anunusually clear view of Venus.But a Mail reader, who declined to give her name for fear of beingbranded a crackpot, said she parked her car in Henhurst Hill when shespotted the lights at about 9pm on Monday.She said she witnessed a cluster of white lights overtaking anaeroplane and was adamant she was not 'barmy'.Inspector Nigel Moss said 'This time of year - clear nights andmornings - Venus shines very bright in the sky.'We also had a gentleman who said the light was hovering right overhis house - Venus is only a few million miles away.'I've watched The X Files, Star Trek and Star Wars, but we checkedwith the relevant authorities and East Midlands Airport and they had ablank radar screen, which would have showed anything up.'
From: Andrew Espeland Source: Burton Mail.Date: Saturday March 2nd, 1996.HEAVENS ABOVE! ANOTHER SIGHTINGReports of strange lights in the sky over Swadlincote followed similarsightings in the heavens above Burton.Police are adamant star-gazers who spotted a bright white light aboveTutbury at about 8pm on Monday were actually looking at an unusuallyclear view of Venus despite claims the light was moving.Now a Swadlincote witness has come forward with an account of a wierdaircraft spotted above the South Derbyshire town at a similar time.The observer, who declined to be identified for fear of being branded'crazy,' said he spotted the egg shell-coloured machine through hislounge window at 8.55pm on Monday.He said: 'I was a military man for 15 years so I know what anaeroplane looks like and I'd never seen anything like this before.'If you imagine what an aeroplane would look like from underneath andthen turn it on its side, that's what I saw.'It was some considerable distance away and I couldn't guess at thesize but it was moving at a tremendous speed.'Police today reiterated radar operators at Castle Donington's EastMidlands Airport saw nothing on their screens covering SouthDerbyshire and East Staffordshire on Monday.
Dave says: I to saw Venus late one night a week or two ago as myfriend Paul (irc Scanman) left. It was tremendously bright but, as Iwas informed by Paul, it was infact Venus. I don't think I've everseen anything as bright in the night sky.
Dave says: I've included this as it made me smile. Thanks Gary.From: Gary Morris ONE SMALL STEP FOR MAN...MOON MYSTERY STATEMENT CLEARED UPIt seems when Apollo 11 mission astronaut Neil Armstrong firstwalked on the Moon, he not only gave his famous "One small step forman, one giant leap for mankind" statement, but followed it withseveral remarks - the usual communication traffic between him, theother astronauts and Mission Control. But before he re-entered thelander he made the enigmatic remark, "Good luck Mr Gorsky".Many people at NASA thought it was a casual remark concerning somerival Soviet cosmonaut. However, upon checking, there was no Gorsky ineither the American or Russian space programs.Over the years, many people have questioned him as to what the "goodluck Mr Gorsky" statement meant. A few months ago in Tampa, Florida,Armstrong was answering questions following a speech when a reporterbrought up the 26-year old question. Armstrong finally responded. Itseems that Mr Gorsky had finally died and so he felt he could answerthe question.When Neil was a kid, he was playing baseball with his brother in thebackyard. His brother hit a fly ball which landed in front of theirneighbours bedroom window. His neighbours were Mr & Mrs Gorsky. As heleaned down to pick up the ball, he heard Mrs Gorsky shouting at MrGorsky, "Oral sex ! Oral sex you want !? You'll get oral sex when thekid next door walks on the Moon !".Still laughing ? Would loved to have video taped Mr Gorsky's face whenkid Neil jumped off the Eagle and hit the Moonrocks ! He he he.
From: Robert Green Source: Daily Mail newspaper.I found this report in the Mail. Has this technology come from UFOstudies?HIGH-SPEED SAUCERYBy DAVID NORRIS Industrial CorrespondentTHIS could be the shape of things to come, the hypersonic flyingsaucer. Scientists believe that within decades it might whiskpassengers from London to New York in 15 minutes, or to Sydney in 48minutes, travelling at 15,000mph. The travel breakthrough involves theway the new craft, measuring 30ft across, could harness and acceleratethe shock waves it would make as it flew. A microwave beam sent outfrom the craft's bulbous nose could create a conical path ahead,directing the explosive force of the shock waves over the saucer rim.Electrodes set around the rim would pick up power sent out fromorbiting satellites and accelerate the shock waves, directing thembehind the craft into a tail stream that would catapult the saucerforward at Mach 25 -- 25 times the speed of sound.The saucer, called a Lightcraft, would have no need to carry thevast amounts of chemical fuel present day rockets use to achieve thespeed necessary to escape the Earth's gravitational pull. Aerospaceengineer Leik Myrabo, who is developing the saucer's power system,said: 'In effect, the entire vehicle becomes the engine.'Once in space, it would describe a parabola before entering theEarth's atmosphere again for landing. Details of the Lightcraff, whichwould have no need of long runways or large airports, are revealed inthe current issue of New Scientist magazine, which says it is 'notscience fantasy, but the goal of serious researchers'. Mr Myrabo isworking at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute at Troy, in New Yorkstate, with the assistance of Russian physicist Yuri Raizer, who isbased in Moscow. Mr Myrabo has developed a wind tunnel that canproduce shock waves of more than Mach 25 to test his theories.

From: Stanton Friedmans Home WWW page...http://medianet.nbnet.nb.ca/ufo/index.htmA Monthly Report: February 16thMedia Attention BuildingThe momentum built up this past year in the direction of greatermedia attention to UFOs has continued. I spent almost a week inParis to provide a detailed interview about Roswell and the "CosmicWatergate" to an organization preparing German and French languageversions of a documentary to be broadcast on the ARTE channel, sort oflike PBS in the USA. Several other scientists were involved, but most were very reluctantto take a stand. Their employers and academia in general would blastthem, they thought. They were almost rolling in the aisles withlaughter when I showed them the 21page TOP SECRET++ NSA affidavitjustifying withholding 156 highly classified NSA UFO documents, whichis itself 75% blacked out even though received under Freedom ofInformation. The related CIA UFO documents received after a 5 yearquest, were almost totally blacked out and also caused great laughter.What surprised me was that they weren't already familiar with thesedocuments which have been around for many years. It will beinteresting to see the reaction when the show is broadcast on March 3.I also took advantage of being in Paris to meet twice with NicoMaillard the outstanding French researcher for the TF 1 TV network andto have dinner with him and Jacques Pradell the host of two Frenchshows about the supposed alien autopsy footage. The shows were seen by40% of TV viewers. I expect to do some work with them in the future.I spent 5 days in England mostly working on a TV pilot about UFOs fora series about the paranormal. I met with 3 different BBC broadcastinggroups and did an interview to be broadcast on "Wall to Wall" SundayFeb. 18, concerning press coverage of the supposed autopsy footage.Thanks to UK UFO researcher, Tim Good and his literary agent, I alsomet with some publishers. Tim's new book "Beyond TOP SECRET" will beout within a few months.I met with Nick Redfern for the first time, another outstandingEnglish researcher who has focussed on government UFO documents. Helocated one cache that will finally be declassified in the year 2075!Talk about government coverup. England does NOT have a Freedom ofInformation Act. He has passed on information that will be included inmy new book TOP SECRET/ MAJIC, to be published by Marlowe and Companyin May, 1996, about the Majestic 12 documents some of which I believeare genuine.Many in the UK were quite surprised at the Oxford University debateresults, when 60% of the debate society members present on October 26,1995, agreed with the proposition "This House believes thatintelligent alien life has visited the planet Earth". Three guesses asto the results were 10,20, and 40% affirmative.
