Speaking at the Freedom Forum Science, Space and Technology Panel on November 19 in New York, NASA Chief Administrator Daniel Goldin defended NASA's previously announced plan to rephotograph the controversial Martian landforms in the region called Cydonia.
"When the spacecraft goes over that spot, if we have the right pointing, we'll try and take a picture, and scientifically show what we have found," he said.
UFO Magazine Says Media Got "D-Noticed" On Mystery Aircraft
A top BBC executive, the former producer of a popular BBC science program, said that the black triangle "craft" first witnessed by hundreds in the Hudson Valley region of the United States [mid 1980s], then by thousands in Belgium (1989-90) and more in Britain, has been "heavily D-Noticed" by the government. For this reason the BBC will not be reporting on the enigmatic craft, no matter how many witness reports they receive.
Earl Frederick Howe, the UK's Defence Minister, startled Britons on Sunday, November 10, 1996, when he revealed to a newspaper the existence of top-secret UFO files compiled by the Royal Air Force (RAF). Lord Howe reportedly stated that all RAF station commanders are under orders to submit a report on each UFO they encounter.
"So far as the existence of extraterrestrial lifeforms is concerned, we remain open-minded," he is alleged to have written.
On Dec 11, a Saudi Arabian Airlines pilot flying in the area where Trans World Airlines Flight 800 exploded reported seeing a "green flare" in the sky that authorities could not identify. The FBI said it was investigating the report.
On Monday, December 9 at 6:45 pm, a father and daughter in Ash Grove, Missouri (population 1,157) spotted "a bright orange ball of light" about 10 degrees above the horizon. The UFO "hovered for several minutes, then vanished."
Further action took place in the city of Springfield (population 133,000) between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. There, a number of unusual lighted objects were seen to hover and move slowly over the city by several witnesses. At 7:15 p.m., a very luminous orange ball of light was observed just above the horizon, moving slowly upward. Then it suddenly vanished.
Five minutes later, "a jet fighter shot across the southern sky at approximately 300 miles per hour at a very low altitude of a couple thousand feet," according to a witness, who said he saw the jet "bank sharply and fly toward the spot where the orange sphere had vanished."
