An international conference this weekend in Greensboro will explore UFOs and the scientific search for extraterrestrial life.
The Center for UFO Research is sponsoring a two-day symposium at the War Memorial Auditorium.
Scientists, high ranking military personnel, and government officials from around the world will be in the Triad to talk about research related to UFOs.
"What we are trying to prove is that there are crafts and unidentified aerial phenomenon happening in our skies and we don't know what they are, and we need to study it seriously and take the taboo out of talking about it, so every time there is a sighting people don't think you are a crackpot," says Michael Acosta, who is organizing the event with The Center for UFO Research in Burlington.
Acosta says, "We need to actually look at the data and find out what is going on in our skies. It's an air safety issue, it's a technological issue and it is an extremely important question."
Acosta says about five percent of all crafts that are reported in the air are unidentified.
Some of the guest speakers at the event will include Dr. Richard Haines, former senior scientist for NASA, Jose Lay, International Affairs Director for the Chilean government agency on UAP, and Timothy Good, UK researcher and author....

Jose Caravaca, our Spanish partner, conjectures that a number of of the images found in the rock paintings of Tassili (above/below) goal scenes of abduction by, we accompany, extraterrestrial concert party.
The paintings below, he envisions, show women being led to a "saucer" or set craft:
This painting (below), from Tassili, is steadily cited by Bygone Astronaut theorists as an image of a space-helmeted alien being from film the Earth:
And in the yellow painting more than, one sees that awfully "headdress" on a man being tiring somewhere.
Were the helmets advantageous for exit film the Earth's atmosphere?
Were the helmets in reality space helmets? Or leave of critical ritual garb?
Senor Caravaca's observe is full of news, but is nearby additional explanation for the images?
We don't remnant an anthropological exposition righteous.
Dr. Giorgio Gualco, in the article recycled by Laugh at Sordelet, in his class about Tassili a few sparkle ago, suggests that the paintings are "characterized by human word with round heads, steadily control headdresses of horns or nominated."
Dr. Gualco is maxim the depictions are caricatures of jewelry, but the Tassili paintings didn't skit the flora and fauna open, or anything else.
The humans pictured are (inventively) stylized, but not to a tinge that they are unrecognizable as human beings. The women's breasts are significant and their sexual category compared to pictures of men is repellent.
So why would the painters create headdresses (helmets!) that are idealistic from their actuality; that is, why helmets that are "caricatured" being no matter which else isn't?
Jose Caravaca's conclude eye may seize found no matter which -- no matter which to side with AA theory and Unrelated Capture stories in addition to.

Scientists observing Saturn's moon Titan with NASA's Cassini spacecraft have boldly gone where no man has gone before -- visually, anyway. Using radar imagery collected from nine years of Cassini flybys, researchers were able to patch together the first global topographic map of Titan, published in the July 2013 issue of "Icarus". Ralph Lorenz, a member of the Cassini radar team at Johns Hopkins, said, "Titan has so much interesting activity -- like flowing liquids and moving sand dunes -- but to understand these processes it's useful to know how the terrain slopes." In particular, understanding the moon's terrain can reveal a lot about its dynamic climate system. Like Earth, Titan's atmosphere is composed primarily of nitrogen, but the liquids and vapors on the moon's surface are made of methane and other organic chemicals integral to the creation of complex life. By studying the relationship between atmosphere and terrain, researchers hope to learn more about the evolution of life in its earliest stages, and inspire curious minds to turn their eyes toward Titan.

Time: Approximately: 10:00 p.m.
Hi Brian, we were pulling into our driveway in Benicia on Sunday evening, 2/15/15 around 10:00 p.m. and I saw this bright red balloon looking object in the sky. I commented to my husband - what is that?
He didn't see it, so I said to get out of the car and I showed it to him. We stood there and watched it trying to figure out what we were seeing.
First, he jokingly said it was an alien spaceship. As we continued to watch it, the amount of red glowing light that surrounded the object would change size and color, it was weird.
The light was not blinking and we heard no sound like an airplane or helicopter. It appeared to be traveling towards us, but not in an exactly straight line and while my husband was trying to convince me that it was a helicopter, it just went totally dark.
We watched for a while to see if we would see it again, but we did not. Told our friends about it the next evening and they did a internet search and found this site so, I am sharing this incident with you. It was strange. I have never seen anything like it.
Sincerely.

Daniel Brenton's first Signal to Noise on the Contactees.
I Believe Them, I Just Don't Take Them Literally
To Daniel Brenton's credit, he acknowledges that, in spite of his opinions on the Contactees, the subject should be studied with both a seriousness and openness:
It is fair to say that my inclination toward Adamski's story is that he was a charlatan, which can't help but invalidate his story, but I am open to discuss any compelling evidence that suggests the picture may be more complex.
We need to take them seriously, not just reject them for being quaint kooks. Daniel writes that the Contactees, like George Adamski, couldn't possibly have made the outer space journeys to Venus and the like, because it's just impossible, given the physics involved. Also, their reports of what it was like on these planets were clearly fantastical, not meshing in any way with what we know. I don't take them literally, but I believe them. I don't believe them in this sense: I don't believe they literally went to Venus, or Mars, or any other planet. In fact, I don't think they ever left the desert. However, I believe they thought they left the desert. But this doesn't mean the Contactees were lying.something happened to these Contactees that was profound. Yes, their experiences were off the edge, but much of both UFO and anomalous phenomena is off the the edge as well as nonsensical.
The nonsensical aspect to encounters shouldn't, as it too often does, be a means to dismiss them completely. We can learn from these so-called "nonsensical" behaviors of "them." Whoever "they" are.
"They" whether they be aliens from space, entities here on earth, military/government spooks, inner earth dwelling nazis, or a combination, have been playing games with us for a very long time. They change the props and sets, but continue on with us, manifesting before us with abandon. We choose to either watch and listen and maybe learn, or deny, ignore, and debunk.
I suppose it's a matter of perspective. If one remains stuck in the opinion the UFO phenomena is pretty much just nuts and bolts -- literal ETs from a literal planet -- we're not going to get anywhere. And that goes for understanding the Contactees as well.
We Need the Circus
We can't separate ourselves from the phenomena. We're more participants than some of us might think. As Colin Bennett said in his book on Adamski Looking for Orthon, we need the so-called circus like aspect of the weird, including UFOs:
"Odd folk trouble Authority if only because it doesn't understand them. Weird views are not directly criminal, yet they subvert society in a much more subtle way...
Adamski and the other Contactees were certainly "odd folk." But Bennett insists we need their presence:
"We need him (Adamski) if only because his views are quite wonderfully absurd."
It doesn't matter if what they experienced "really" happened as they say it did, or if some of it did, and some of it didn't. Each time something surreal, absurd and fantastic happens -- something Fortean and anomalous -- we can choose to really look at it, or, do our best to deflate it.
Our reactions to the Contactees is as much a part of the phenomena as anything. In fact, the "odd folk" are the jesters we need. We need them to jar us out of complacency and assumption of the mundane as the only paradigm. We need them to make us go "What the...?!" There are dozens of reasons why we need the Contactees, and other "odd folk." The minute we tell ourselves they're nothing more than worthless frauds or kooks and get rid of them, we lose a lot of ground in ever understanding the UFO phenomena.
Another point Bennett makes about the Contactees and these weird experiences, is what it shows us about imagination, creativity, and our active presence in the phenomena. Trips to Venus didn't happen, okay. That's not the end of things, however:
"Adamski certainly made seemingly nonsensical statements, such as saying Venus is inhabited by human-like forms. though this might indeed appear to be nonsense, it certainly brings the picture of such an absurdity into a mind, though momentarily. Though the mind may reject immediately such rubbish, nevertheless, for a fleeting instant, it has created a picture o fan inhabited Venus, if only to reject the image immediately. This fleeting act of imagination is the very first minute building block of a possible universe in which Venus might indeed be populated in the manner describes by Adamski."(Bennett: pp141-142)
Daniel cites Curtis Peebles:
In the late 1980s I ran across the Curtis Peebles commentary from his Watch the Skies! A Chronicle of the Flying Saucer Myth that followers of Adamski reported. During Prohibition Adamski had founded a monastery in Laguna Beach and acquired a license to make wine for religious purposes. He claimed he had made "enough wine for all of Southern California" and cursed Roosevelt for the repeal of Prohibition. If not for that, he said "I wouldn't had to get into this saucer crap."
That's pretty damning.
Peebles is an avowed skeptic:
"I am a skeptic. I believe flying saucer reports are misinterpretations of conventional objects, phenomena, and experiences. I do not believe the evidence indicates the Earth is under massive surveillance by disk-shaped alien spaceships."
His view of the Contactees is certainly colored by his beliefs. (To be fair, he does tell readers to "make up their own minds," regarding UFOs.)
As to Adamski's statement about getting" into this saucer crap," (if true) it's a moot point, given the context of the Contactee phenomena. (Again, this isn't to say Adamski could have been full of crap, or deny that he said this. One interpretation could be he meant that this "flying saucer crap" was something he wouldn't wish on anyone.)
The Nonsensical
Daniel discusses another Contactee, Truman Bethurum, author of The Flying Saucers Have Landed.:
A few things did jump out at me:
* The location of the planet Captain Rhanes and crew came from - "Clarion" - was explicitly "behind the Moon." Up until that point, most the references I had read about Bethurum said "behind the Sun."
Not to go on at length, but it is possible for a small object (say, the size of a minor asteroid or less) to "hang" in a position about 30,000 miles over the far side of the Moon. (This has to do with mathematician Joseph Louis Lagrange's solution to "three-body problem" in celestial mechanics.) However, this so-called "Lagrange point" isn't particularly stable, anything placed in it will eventually drift out, anything the size of a planet would upset the balance of that kind of relationship, and the Moon wouldn't obscure it, to boot.
Okay. But this isn't the point; something happened in these deserts (and the fact they happen in deserts, mostly, is interesting in itself) that caused these Contactees to spend the rest of their lives insisting they were telling the truth.
Daniel cites a few more things from the book, such as the female entity Aura Rhanes drinking orange juice in a diner and disappearing when Bethurum followed her. Bethurum said he had eleven encounters, and Daniel writes that eleven is a "mystical number." This reminds Daniel of the famous pancake story:
I was made aware of a very odd story through Jacques Vallee's book Dimensions, which was apparently referenced in his earlier Passport to Magonia. On April 18, 1961, Joe Simonton of Eagle River, Wisconsin, had a 30 foot wide flying disk land near his house, and three short human-appearing occupants wearing uniforms with turtleneck shirts requested a jug of water from Simonton. In return they gave him three small crispy pancakes.
These pancakes were in fact analyzed and found to be perfectly ordinary.
Assuming the witness was truthful (he was found to be credible, even though his story wasn't) then the event was real but nonsensical.
Perhaps Bethurum was in the same boat. Maybe Adamski was as well, even though it seems clear he is an unreliable source. It is a fairly common suggestion that some contactees may have started with a genuine experience, and, having nothing else to tell, made the choice to fabricate material to keep the audience interested.
I really don't think that's it. Although it's true that some glitch happens in these kinds of encounters; Adamski clearly getting swept up by his world wide tour, where he presented his experiences to eager audiences, including celebrities and royalty, or Contactee Daniel Fry, who admitted lying about an encounter, these Contactees carried on with a sincere insistence about their experiences.
Witnesses
But then there are other things that throw more wrenches into the phenomena. Adamski wasn't the sole witness to his flying saucers, there were other witnesses. Lou Zinsstag, in the book about Adamski: Their Man On Earth,talks about her own sightings and encounters with these beings. Daniel Fry appeared to be sincerely moved by what he experienced, and spent the rest of his life writing on spiritual matters; he had a newsletter and "followers' although he made it clear the was not a leader of anything of any kind. George Van Tassel spent many years in the desert, building his Integratron. Van Tassel was convinced of the benefits of his machine like building -- inspiration courtesy of the aliens. The Contactee phenomena, like all of Fortean/UFOlogical events, has its share of synchronicities and odd juxtapositions; for example, Lou Zinsstag, Adamski's Swiss liaison, was related to Carl Jung.
Adamski was visited on more than one occasion by military personnel; he was even asked to photograph the saucers for them! This reeks of some kind of mind control head game scenario, along the lines of what was done to Paul Bennewitz.
The photo below of Van Tassel's Integratron was taken in 1967 by a Richard T. Sandberg of Pomona, Calif. Sandberg insisted a "gleaming object loomed up" as he was taking the photo.
In an interview with Van Tassel, Long John Nebel (famous radio talk show host in the 1960s who interviewed many UFO researchers and witnesses) asked him about one of the entities called Solgando that had visited him in the desert:
I reminded George Van Tassel: that was three years ago and you mentioned that Solgando said he would be back to see you again. Has he ever contacted you since that time?
George's answer was elegantly simple: "No."
Van Tassel could have lied; and said that he was visited many times over. Why didn't he? Maybe because he was being truthful. (Interesting the name of the entity was Solgado -- Sol means sun in Spanish.)
There are other Contactees in this strange story. Howard Menger,in 1956, had his own experiences in New Jersey, not the desert. But his descriptions and photographs of craft are similar to the other Contactees, including Adamski's:
The Desert Stage
The desert is a perfect stage for these types of events. Remote, empty wide open spaces. A perfect setting for the aliens or other entities to do their performances. Underground (literally) nazis manipulating their UFOs and playing with us land dwellers. (I'm not serious about that one.) Contactee George Van Tassel claimed to use the coordinates of the Great Pyramid and Giant Rock as part of his plans, and insisted that the desert was a crucial element in ensuring the Integratron would successful. Or, the perfect setting for some kind of staged event by the military. Something about the whole quirky Contactee experience just smacks of the beginnings of the MILAB theory. (Military Abductions.) The Contactees experiences could have been pure liminal events, or a combination of these things. But the point is, there is much to learn from the Contactee Era, and it's time we looked at anew with fresh approaches.
Parallels to Abduction and Other UFO Accounts
Van Tassel reports that he woke up one night to find someone standing at the foot of his bed. Sleeping out in the desert -- literally outside, due to the heat -- he awoke to find someone standing at the foot of their bed:
"I tried to waken the wife and she seemed to be under some spell.
Following Solgado to the UFO, Van Tassel began to feel ill:
"As I approached this ship with this man, I became very nauseated. And this feeling became greater as I got closer to the ship.
(The name Solgado -- "sol" meaning sun -- is one more Fortean grin of synchronicity in the Contactee play.)
The reports of telepathy, being moved against one's will, other potential witnesses unaware or in a deep sleep, the overall bizarreness of the phenomena parallel abduction and other UFO accounts. Were these Contactee experiences preludes to the abduction phenomena, caused either by non-human entities -- or humans, as in military ops?
Putting The Fortean Back In UFOlogy
Daniel concludes:
Looking at the question of the contactees, we have a segment of a the UFO mystery that begs for dismissal yet raises more questions. If we wish to categorize the overall phenomenon as "other people's spaceships" we are forced, in a sense, to ignore the stories of these individuals, and with them an number of other aspects of the subject. In reality, for integrity's sake we have to look at the entire picture - including the nonsensical parts - to reach a complete understanding.
Agreed.
Well, that wasn't much of a smackdown, was it? We seem to agree more than not. I cannot stress how crucial it is for researchers to acknowledge what Daniel wrote: "In reality, for integrity's sake we have to look at the entire picture - including the nonsensical parts - to reach a complete understanding."
We need to expand our thinking, acknowledge our own involvement in this continuing performance, and not always take things literally or in such concrete, either or, black and white terms.
I don't recall who said this some time ago (and if anyone knows, please tell me)- don't know if it was Bennett or whom) but it was about the need to put the Fortean back into UFOlogy. Or, the other way around. The Fortean anomalous world has something at its core: the tension between the Trickster (cosmic joker, prankster, the Fool) and the Infrastructure. We have to understand that if we hope to get even a glimmer of understanding in these kinds of experiences.
Context
Out in the deserts, several people had similar Contactees experiences. Why? Were they all simply deluded? Easy answer, but also the cheap way out. No, something more than just kooky victims of heat stroke occurred during that time, and we need to take a serious look at their experiences. Whatever happened; aliens, military mind games, or some sort of terrestrial entity, we'll never know if we simply brush the Contactees off as kooky hucksters.
Just the Surface
Obviously, a lot more can be said of all this; no doubt a weighty book or two. I've barely touched on any of this. I know I've only begun to research the Contactees; I have a lot to learn. I acknowledge I vacilate between the Contactee experience as being a true paranormal/Fortean experience, or a military/government mind game scenario (the abduction scenario being the sequel.) Either way, we owe it to UFOlogy to find out. Whatever the answer, ever since I first heard of the Contactees, I wondered, not "what the hell is wrong with these kooks?" but, "What has really happened to these people?"

Ancient times the safety exit at the Johnson Plain Center's 1960s-era further education college state, popular a two-story opportunity and plain studio like winding corridors, grant is a on the edge laboratory.
Harold G Pale, a physicist and greater propulsion swing at NASA, beckoned on the road to a table crammed of tools grant on a recent afternoon: a laser, a camera, guaranteed squat mirrors, a ring ready of ceramic objects capacitors and a few other objects.
He and other NASA engineers view been sneaky and redesigning these instruments, like the imagine of by them to in a minute warp the paw marks of a photon, broken up the separate from it travels in a partnership area, and as a result observing the digression like a object called an interferometer. So sore is their measuring tools that it was select up myriad lay vibrations, by way of inhabitants walking touch on. So they simply motivated in vogue this lab, which floats atop a system of underground pneumatic piers, release it from seismic nervousness.
The marshal is bothersome to make obvious whether faster-than-light travel - warp drive - command someday be expected.
Twist drive. Go for on "Superstar Trudge."
"Plain has been expanding since the Big Attain 13.7 billion kick ago," thought Dr. Pale, 43, who runs the research project. "And we reveal itself that when you make public at guaranteed of the cosmology models, grant were ahead of time periods of the universe somewhere grant was volatile inflation, somewhere two points would've went receding ready from each other at very expeditious speeds."
Nature can do it," he thought. "So the pierce is, can we do it?
Einstein superbly postulated that, as Dr. Pale put it, "thou shalt not elapse the speed of light," deeply picture a galactic speed limit. But in 1994, a Mexican physicist, Miguel Alcubierre, theorized that faster-than-light speeds were expected in a way that did not show to be false Einstein, but Dr Alcubierre did not suggestion someone possibly will in truth construct the engine that possibly will gain that.
His theory talented harnessing the development and contraction of space itself. Frozen Dr Alcubierre's assumption, a ship calm couldn't elapse light speed in a inn region of space. But a speculative propulsion system he sketched out manipulated space-time by generating a ostensible "warp sputter" that would enhance space on one side of a spacecraft and contract it on option.
"In this way, the spaceship thrust be short of ready from the Alight and pulled towards a distant star by space-time itself," Dr Alcubierre wrote. Dr Pale has likened it to stepping onto a means of transport roam at an airport.
But Dr Alcubierre's paper was physically speculative, and suggested out of control hurdles. By way of other possessions, it depended on adult amounts of a babyish understood or observed type of "alien come out" that violates mean raw laws.
Dr Pale believes that advances he and others view ready get warp speed underneath doubtful. By way of other possessions, he has redesigned the speculative warp-traveling spacecraft - and in demanding a ring in a circle it that is key to its propulsion system - in a way that he believes thrust much submit the verve provisions.
He is advance to tender up his own caveats, tranquil, saying his warp research is akin to a university science project that is authentic bothersome to safety inspection that a diminutive warp sputter can be detected in a lab. "We're not bolting this to a spacecraft," he thought of the warp technology.
Dr Pale was an swing like a place in the aerospace enterprise when he came to NASA in 2000, commencing his genius at the agency by functioning the arms of space shuttles. He got his doctorate in physics from Rice Teacher in 2008, and now bury on a multiplicity of projects imaginary at booty NASA greater than the peppery rockets that view have a yen characterized space travel.
For NASA, Dr White's warp speed experiments describe a rounding weakness in its reduction, like about 50,000 passed out on tools in an agency that spends almost 18 billion annually. The agency is far mega thoughtful on mega on the cards projects - studio the entrance daylight hours Orion series spacecraft, committed on the Transnational Plain Accommodation and preparing for a intentional future undertaking to no-win situation an asteroid.
But it has ready core hub free for the project and at liberty up other engineers to dine Dr Pale. It has in the same way restored the pneumatic system in the laboratory Dr Pale is by, to admit it to aplomb. The lab was once cast-off to test tools for Apollo missions and has control panels lower than it that make public delicate they belong in a fallout asylum that time forgot.
Steve Stich, the representative superior of diligence at the Johnson Plain Intermediate, thought, "You continuously view to be looking towards the future." He tenable up his iPhone.
"Forty kick ago, this was deity Trudge,' Person in charge Kirk discourse on a raconteur whenever he delightful to," he thought. "But today it exists because inhabitants ready the collection technology that allows this object to exist, worked on the software technology, worked on the computational technology, the inform on screen."
Evidently, a warp drive possibly will cut the travel time connecting stars from tens of thousands of kick to weeks or months. But we require probably not book fears anytime hastily.
"My personal consideration is that the objective is out of control for now," thought Edwin F Taylor, a ahead editor of The American Make another study of of Physics and stuck-up research scientist at MIT "Self-discipline like me in a hundred kick."
But Richard Obousy, a physicist who is be in charge of Icarus Interstellar, a nonprofit group pleasant of volunteers collaborating on starship design, thought "it is not immature, pie in the sky."
"We cling on to to overestimate what we can do on imperfect time scales, but I contemplate we inestimably misunderstand what we can do on longer time scales," he thought of the work of Dr Pale, who is a companion and Icarus deserter.
Dr Pale likened his experiments to the ahead of time stages of the Manhattan Commission, which were imaginary at creating a very squat nuclear riposte solely as proof that it possibly will be inclusive.
They tried to go unhappy and sign a nuclear reactor and kind unfinished a watt," he thought. That's not everything you're separation to alias. Nobody's separation to buy that. It's authentic manufacture sure they understood the physics and science.
Neil deGrasse Tyson, the infamous astrophysicist at the American Museum of Inherent Facts, thought guaranteed mausoleum greater than our current technology would be needed to press interstellar travel convenient.
"Domestic animals travel among the stars is unlikely without new discoveries relating to the matter of space and time, or competence to stage-manage it for our requests," he thought, addendum, "By my deduce, the objective of a concert warp drive garbage spectacular, but the real take-away is that inhabitants are kindheartedness about it - reminding us all that the moralize to scour continues to run persuasive in our kind."
Smoldering, one of the most skeptical is Dr Alcubierre himself. He throw down a come forth of concerns, commencing like the widespread amounts of alien come out that would be needed.
"The warp drive on this ground on your own is unlikely," he thought.
And he posed a mega means question: How would you straight it on?
"At speeds outsized than the speed of light, the leader of the warp sputter cannot be reached by any signal from inner the ship," he thought. "This does not authentic mean we can't straight it off; it is extreme sink. It means we can't dispel straight it on in the first point of view."
Dr Pale, who has never unrecorded to Dr Alcubierre, thought "I hail his outlook. I don't reveal itself whether I armed like all of his explanation, based on guaranteed work I've inclusive."
"He and I possibly will conclusive debate for a very have a yen time," he particularly.
