Are we being visited by Aliens from the cosmos?

That depends on who you ask. The US government took the possibility seriously enough for 22 years with Project Blue Book (1947 - 1969). In 1969, however, they concluded that there was no evidence of a national security threat, no evidence of a higher technological power, and no evidence that it's unresolved cases were of extraterrestrial origin - and they shut the project down for good.

Critics of Project Blue Book say that the purpose of the project was actually to find some plausible explanation to fit all sightings, that the detective work was haphazard at best, and that given this scenario, the 20% or so of the caseload left unresolved must have been real doozies, because no explanation was ever offered for them.

So the government does not consider unexplained phenomena such as UFO's to be a threat to national security, but does that mean that we are not being visited by other civilizations? Well, let's look at it a little more closely.

In the first place, it seems somewhat egotistical to imagine that we are the only thinking, manufacturing, productive entities in this vast universe. In all probability, there are indeed other civilizations out there somewhere, some of whom likely are capable of paying us a visit if they are so inclined.

Then, there are stories that have slowly come to light about pilots and astronauts who have encountered strange entities. These are witnesses as credible as it gets, and some fascinating stories have come out about their experiences. Maurice Chatelain, former chief of NASA communications, relates that every Apollo and Gemini flight was monitored by vehicles of unknown origin, and that huge ships, also of unknown origin, were waiting on the moon watching as the astronauts did their work.

Curiously, despite hundreds and even thousands of reports of sightings and abductions, no military power has ever had a single exchange of fire with these mysterious ships, even on the rare occasions when we have fired at them first. Are they so evolved that they don't do war anymore? Hopefully so, because that means we have hope here. But it could also be that they have no need to exchange fire with us because our weapons are useless against them anyway.

This page is devoted to those UFO sightings that have never been explained, and pages will be added with specific Project Blue Book cases, the Roswell crash, and cases from other reputable sources from around the world. This is a work in progress, so please Bookmark this site, and return often, as new pages are added daily.

Unidentified Flying Objects -
Project Blue BOOK

Project Blue Book was one of a series of systematic studies of Unidentified flying objects (UFOs) conducted by the United States Air Force (U.S.A.F.). Started in 1952, it was the second revival of such a study. A termination order was given for the study in December 1969, and all activity under its auspices ceased in January 1970.

Project Blue Book had two goals: to determine if UFOs were a threat to national security, and to scientifically analyze UFO-related data. Thousands of UFO reports were collected, analyzed and filed. As the result of the Condon Report, which concluded there was nothing anomalous about any UFOs, Project Blue Book was ordered shut down in December 1969. This project was the last publicly known UFO research project led by the USAF.^[1]

By the time Project Blue Book ended, it had collected 12,618 UFO reports, and concluded that most of them were misidentification's of natural phenomena (clouds, stars, et cetera) or conventional aircraft. A few were considered hoaxes. 701 of the reports — about six percent — were classified as unknowns, defying detailed analysis.^[2] The UFO reports were archived and are available under the Freedom of Information Act, but names and other personal information of all witnesses have been redacted.

Though many accepted Blue Book's final conclusions that there was nothing extraordinary about UFOs, critics — then and now — have charged that BLUE Book, especially in its later years, was engaging in dubious research, or even perpetuating a cover up of UFO evidence. Some evidence suggests that not only did some UFO reports bypass Blue Book entirely, but that the U.S. Air Force continued collecting and studying UFO reports after Blue Book had been discontinued, despite official claims to the contrary.
