Grazia Toderi’s Alien Homeworlds
If you want to see where they come from, and you happen to live in Washington, DC, check out the exhibition called “Directions: Grazia Toderi” at the Hirshhorn Museum. Grazia Toderi is an Italian artist who does massive video projections built from collages of cities at night. Fragments of these vast vistas of light fade […]
NASA Acknowledges WTFs Near Space Shuttle
Four mysterious objects were detected and filmed near the space shuttle Atlantis, and uncharacteristically NASA acknowledged this encounter — and that such UFOs are witnessed frequently on shuttle missions. See the Fox news report here: A report on another UFO sighting during Atlantis’s last mission is here: Check it out. ***
WTFology
Does anybody else think that UFO is too sterile a term? That it fails to capture the emotion behind our quest, the astonishment that drives a witness of something “unidentified” to seek answers? I’ve decided to, as much as possible, replace the term UFO with WTF. Because that really gets it better, don’t you think? […]
War of the Worlds One
Few people are aware that many of the best-attested, best-studied, and most astonishing UFO encounters have actually involved military confrontations. Encounters between air force jets and UFOs have occurred throughout the world, including Great Britain, Iran, Chile, Belgium, and the U.S. Many of these are described in detail in a couple of excellent recent books, […]
Saganism
Carl Sagan was a hero to most of us who in one way or another like to watch the skies. The mellifluous-voiced, turtleneck-and-corduroy-wearing astronomer inspired my generation to care about space, about our planet, and about our future as a spacefaring civilization. He was not only a fashion plate but also a prophet of what […]
Hoaxed?
Much as I was eager to believe in the authenticity of the recent series of very convincing videos of a UFO over Jerusalem’s Temple Mount (previous posts), the growing feeling in the UFO blogosphere is that they’re probably fake, and the arguments are persuasive. To the untrained eye, the videos look very real, but they […]
And a Fifth…
Rick Phillips (UFO Disclosure Countdown Clock) has found a fifth, intriguing video of the “Jerusalem UFO”: Unlike the other videos, I’m slightly suspicious of this one on first viewing: It reminds me a bit of Cloverfield — people pretending to act totally real and spontaneous for a hand-held camera, but ever so slightly overdoing it. […]
Fourth Jerusalem UFO Video
[edit 2/5/11: The original version of this video had an audio track (voices, expressions of surprise, etc.), which has now been removed, and new added text explains that that audio track was fake and had been added to the footage as part of a UFO coverup plot somehow, to discredit it. I’m not sure what […]
UFO over Jerusalem
If it isn’t an elaborate hoax, there was an astonishing UFO event in the Middle East this weekend that is generating a buzz on the UFO forums. At 1 am on January 28, a bright white orb was filmed by three witnesses directly over the Dome of the Rock on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount. After hovering […]
UFO Coverup Primer
In our busy world, who has the time to read a thick tome covering the evidence about UFOs? Historian Richard Dolan has written three of them (the latest, After Disclosure, in collaboration with Bryce Zabel) that amount to over 1,300 pages. It’s a stunning volume of documentation. Well, here’s the answer to your problems: A […]
