Captured from CLEVELAND FREENET, October 10, 1987
OVERVIEW AND REWRITE OF PREVIOUS UFO RELATED UPLOADS
[Rick Dell'aquilla]
Astronomer Dr. Carl Sagan, the acknowledged guru of
professional UFO "skeptics", has been quoted as saying,
"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence." Another
of the better known of these professional UFO skeptics, Phil
Klass, has admitted the possibility of intelligent life
elsewhere than planet Earth, although he finds no convincing
evidence that UFO phenomena indicate visitation to Earth by
alien intelligence.
In his book, COSMOS, Dr. Sagan postulates a formula that
suggests that many, perhaps most, stars have planets, and that
the number of potentialy technologically advanced civilizations
in the Milky Way galaxy can be estimated by the formula:
N* X fp X ne X f1 X fi X fe X fL = N,
Where:
N* is the number of stars in our galaxy (about 400 billion)
fp is the fraction of stars with planetary systems (about 1/3)
ne is the number of planets per system suitable for life (2)
f1 is the fraction of the suitable planets on which
life actually arises (about 1/3)
fi is the fraction of inhabited planets on which intelligence
evolved and
fe the fraction of inhabited planets on which a technical
civilization developed (fi X fe = 1/100) and
fL is the fraction of a planetary lifetime over which the
technical civilization survived. (< .0000001%)
Dr. Sagan's computation indicates that N ( the number
of extant technical civilizations in our Milky Way galaxy is
about Ten Million (10,000,000). This means that even though
only .0025% of the stars in the Milky Way have technologically
adavanced civilizations, there are about Ten Million
(10,000,000) such civilizations in our galaxy.
Dr. Sagan's estimate of 10,000,000 inhabited and
technologically advanced planets in our one galaxy, of, course,
does not in and of itself prove that UFO phenomena represent a
manifestation of any one of them. However, it does indicate
that in dealing with matters of such magnitude, even assuming
a "low probability", (in this case, .0025%) there remains an
astoundingly large number of potentially inhabited and highly
developed civilizations in our part of the universe.
Highly unusual, startling, and completely credible
documentation concerning UFOs has been disclosed under the
Federal Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), is a statute by
which citizens may compel the government to release certain
documents. This documentation (7000 pages approx.) has been
obtained by litigation with such agencies as the FBI, CIA, NSA,
USAF, etc.). Much information is still being withheld from the
public and remains to be disclosed, since the bulk of these
documents have not been released by the government, under the
"National Security" exemption in the statute. In view of the
extraordinary revelations contained in these documents, there
may be very much more, and even more disturbing, information
yet to be revealed.
The authenticity of the documents is not arguable,
since they have been released directly from the federal agency
involded to the U.S. District Courts.
Among the UFO cases established by the official
documentary evidence is the Bentwaters sighting of a few years
ago. RAF Woodbridge/Bentwaters are two adjacent USAF bases
(Strategic Air Command) on land in Eastern England leased
by the U.S. Air Force from Great Britain. As such, these are
high security installation and storage sites for nuclear
weapons.
Over the Christmas season of 1980, several British
newspapers carried banner headlines of a unique UFO report,
unique in the sense that the information was obtained through
an OFFICIAL USAF DOCUMENT RELEASED UNDER THE FOIA. The report
was prepared by the second in command of the base, Lt. Col
Charles I. Halt, a trained observer with a military career he
presumably would not wish to place in jeapordy with outlandish
or otherwise unsubstantiated UFO claims. Yet, can one explain
the fact that he has never retracted a word of the following
report, was never reprimanded for making a false report, and
indeed, was later promoted to Brig. General?
The report states:
"1. Early in the morning of 27 Dec 80 (approximately
0300L), two USAF security policemen saw unusual lights outside
the back gate at RAF Woodbridge. Thinking an aircraft might
have crashed or been forced down, they called for permission to
go outside the gate to investigate. The on-duty chief respond-
ed and allowed three patrolmen to proceed on foot. The indi-
viduals reported seeing a strange glowing object in the forest.
The object was described as being metallic in appearance and
triangular in shape, approximately two to three meters across
the base and approximately two meters high. It illuminated
the entire forest with a white light. The object itself had
a pulsing red light on top and a bank(s) of blue lights under-
neath. The object was hovering or on legs. As the patrolmen
approached the object, it maneuvered through the trees and
disappeared. At this time the animals on a nearby farm went
into a frenzy. The object was briefly sighted approximately
an hour later near the back gate.
2. The next day, three depressions 1 1/2" deep and 7"
in diameter were found where the object had been sighted on the
ground. The following night (29 Dec 80) the area was checked
for radiation. Beta/gamma readings of 0.1 milliroentgens were
recorded with peak readings in the three depressions and near
the center of the triangle foRAGRAPHS 2 AND 3.

Deputy Base Commander "
Moreover, in a 1984 CNN documentary on the Bentwaters
case, current and former USAF security personnel independently
confirmed the contents of the Halt report. A former military
policeman, "Airman Gregg," stated, " I saw some kind of
spaceship from someplace not of this Earth." A former Master
Sgt., who was part of the team that investigated the landing
site, said the team found three depressions in the soil, 12
feet apart, in an equilateral triangle. One officer who is
still on active duty with the USAF corroborated these
statements and added that motion pictures and still photographs
of the site were also taken. (denied by the USAF.)
Lt. Col. Halt ordered a hightened state of alert for the
following night, on which night a four-man perimiter patrol
reported seeing strange lights in the sky outside the back gate
that, "were unlike the pattern of any known aircraft." They
requested and were given permission to investigate.
They found that an INTENSE light was eminating from a
clearing in the forest at the end of the runway. One security
officer said that as they approached, all the hair on their
bodies (even under their hats) stood on end, "like therre was a
big static charge in the air." They loaded their M-16s. "We
didn't know what we were encountering; and we knew it was
something beyond our realm of experience. We had never
experienced anything like that before. About that time, we
decided to get the...out of there." The armed security police
ran off and encountered about 30 more security police (led by
Lt. Col. Halt) in about a half-dozen vehicles on a nearby road.
Halt and a three man team, including Sgr. "B" ( a USAF
security officer still on active duty) approached the
clearing. The Sgt. later said, "right now, I do believe that
UFOs exist. Up to this point, I had been skeptical. Now I
believe there may have been someone else there."
Larry Warren, a former security officer, has come forward
without anonymity and has withstood a blistering attack by the
professional skeptics on his personal integrity, who claimed he
was a drug user or flat out, a liar. These unsubstantiated
charges were later retracted by the skeptics. Warren maintains
that more happ
