AFS -It's A MAJOR Problem

"AFS" is not a rude phrase -read on!

I have written in my books and on this blog numerous times how astronomers and people working in the Search for Extra Terrestrial intelligence (SETI) -and these include many of the top names- will mock, resort to childish name calling or outrightly state that UFO reports and reports of alien entities are hoaxes or from the minds of people with mental health issues.

These are people who draw in bug salaries and a job and free dinners for life to look for alien life. Even when one of their number breaks ranks these people will not reassess evidence and discuss the matter. Their colleague has simply "flipped". In fact their colleague has followed a scientific principle to investigate and study with an open mind and put forward a matter for discussion.

Millions in funds go toward the equipment used by these "experts" in their non quest to find alien life but you will rarely hear "that signal seems interesting and though we do not know and cannot say it is of alien origin we will look into it".  The response is always (go to You Tube and you will see this in plenty of SETI videos) "It's not aliens. It is never aliens!" And this is drummed into students and others attending lectures so dogma is forced into once open minds.

Signals are "always" either "a microwave cooker in the building" or some other mundane thing such as, perhaps, "one of our satellites in orbit".  Now let's get this straight;  multiple millions in funds go into top notch "state of the art" equipment used by underlings of the "Job and free dinners or life" big names who take credit after someone else has pointed something out but -but- their equipment cannot tell whether a signal is coming from one of our own satellites in orbit -all tracked and known about?  Also, someone needs to be fired or an investigation needs to be carried out if the "state of the art"  equipment is detecting a microwave cooker in the facility's building.

You look at things this way and you start to think "Is this not how scams work?" 

Why is someone taking a huge pay salary and some even celebrity status to look for alien life or signals 99.9% of the time contradicting experienced colleagues and ridiculing the possibility of alien life? What actual results are these people showing after decades? Oh, the odd paper of fluff to keep the funding and dinners coming in but what real results? Perhaps whoever is allocating the millions in funding and pay cheques out to do annual performance reviews and cut back budgets -maybe even let Elon Musk take over a new SETI project where systems like Starlink are used to broadcast and search for signals.

Of course, rather like the medical profession, these people will turn blind eyes until someone is caught out and then everyone yells "we knew he /she was doing this!"  SETI has proven to be a money guzzler and it is like a big club where no one wants to let Joe Public in one what is going on as "it's ours!"

AFS is also at play. Again, in my books, I have referred to SETI and astronomers and their stances that make no sense unless those stances are ones established through fear. Alien Fear Syndrome can be because of religious beliefs, fear that humans (as in so many old sci fi works) will become food or egotistical fear. An alien so intelligent that it would make Albert Einstein look like a pretty dim kindergarten child. That would mean the pedestal would be kicked out from under these SETI/Astronomy super stars and if you watch their interviews and read what they have to say it is all about ego.

Then we have Ufologists. Since 1949, let's say, we have had reports of alien entities and Ufologists have willingly jumped on board with the newspapers and radio and later TV to mock or joke about these incidents.  In many cases it was easy to dismiss reports and in many cases a percipient or witness being "black" made it so much easier.  I have seen this over the decades.

Harrison E, Bailey was a hoaxing nut job -only Ann Druffel took time to look into this case and though I feel she made the wrong conclusions based on what she knew in Beyond UFO Contact I put forward an explanation that Ufologists should really have come to much earlier, However, Bailey's "status" of being "black" made it easier to just ridicule.

Eupora, Mississippi -a UFO (2) and alien entity incident on a US Interstate road was ignored and is still being ignored because the witnesses were "black". If this had been an incident witnessed by "white" people it would be classed, as it should be anyway, as a major UFO incident. Suggestions of "pot smoking" and even Viet Nam war PTSD (which would not affect all the observers) were put forward. Hynek, Ted Bloecher and others asked investigators locally to look into this case but "they were not going to go into a black area"

I saw how reports in the UK were either ignored or pushed to one side because observers were "black" and at one UFO meeting in the late 1970s I mentioned the Betty and Barney Hill case and people sniggered as one told me "Well, a white woman marrying a black man -how credible can they be?" And he was being serious. 

My point is that if Ufgologists have a prejudice based on ethnicity how would they cope with aliens? Well, they don't. The exception was Ted Bloecher who can be seen as the father of alien entity studies until he retired in the 1980s. As noted in my works and on this blog, I have seen -and you can see this by going to You Tube and watching selected videos of Erica Lukes and others- Ufologists calling themselves 30, 40 year "veteran ufologists" who have, it seems, never once read any reports of Close Encounters of the Third Kind or books on the subject (though they may have some on their bookshelves as they look pretty). each one almost uses the identical line:

"And then you have those little guys whatever that's about"

I dedicated a post to this:https://aeceiiikp.blogspot.com/2022/11/and-then-we-have-little-guys-whats-that.html

How can you possibly be a "veteran Ufologist" and know nothing about entity cases? How low an IQ or imagination do you have to have to literally become word blind to these incidents which, as most of these people totally incorrectly point out, "are just stories with no evidence".  However, these people will chase after evidence that a small light in the sky (LITS) was an alien space craft for years and they will soak up the fakery like Roswell, Trinity, Aurora not to mention promote and push proven liars such as Richard Doty (who ran a campaign against Ufology and drove one man insane) , Jacques Vallee (the worst 'scientific' researcher in Ufology) and many others to continue making money. The same with Budd Hopkins and David Jacobs (and others) who were pushed and promoted for monetary reasons and yet, it seems, these "veteran Ufologists" by-passed even that?

Why spend years gather report data and yet ignore entity cases or "file them away"? The -the- most basic question should be (and it was asked back in the early days of Ufology):

 "If these are intelligently controlled craft then who is piloting them?"

Although we understand now that a great many of the 1950s/1960s Contactee groups were simply covers for racist and right wing groups who pushed the tall, blonde haired, blue eyed alien brothers they were not controlling the Contactee followers and investigators around the world. Europe, Japan etc had big followings for Contactees like George Adamski and despite all the evidence over the years there are elements still stating that he was 100% genuine or, not wishing to lose viewers on You Tube (money, right?) will say that although many doubt his claims there still is a lot of "coincidental evidence" in his favour.

Tall, blonde, blue-eyed space brothers (an invention of the 1950s) or little Grey aliens (an invention of the 1980s) were all accepted or, in some cases (obviously) ignored by "veteran Ufologists".

Fantasy has taken over from factual research. Why are there so many in Ufology like this? Why do they sit picking fluff from their navel and suck their thumbs asking confusedly: "what are these little guys all about?"

Alien Fear Syndrome

These "truth-seekers" will brag a good line about how they are there to get to the truth and even state "I would love to see one of these things (UFO) up close" but most chuckle in a dismissive manner when asked about meeting an alien from said UFO. I have reported on, heard and read accounts of Ufologists observing an object land nearby or having a landing spot pointed out to them and...they run away or make some excuse as to why they can go no further.  In one case a UFO 'investigator' was with others when he observed a UFO land not far away in a hollow surrounded by trees -he sent his father to go check. 😑 

Really, he sent someone not involved in Ufology to check things out and I am glad to say that after even messing up evidence from the site he left Ufology. Not soon enough.

There are very good entity cases out there with physical and physiological evidence as well as third party observers and even radar tracking objects. Are the "veteran Ufologists" reading books? Are they getting their education from (I hate writing it) MUFON or You Tube? 

If SETI personnel and Astronomers as well as Ufologists cannot handle the notion of alien life or even look into the material out there...I guess they must just be interested in free meals and good pay checks or living a fantasy life as a "UFO researcher" (along with the "I want to believe" posters).

Alien Fear Syndrome is real but is never discussed because no one wants to highlight it (no money or kudos) and "professionals" are certainly not going to say "I'm scared aliens (I am looking for) might be real so ridicule accounts" (lost of funding and free dinners...and celebrity status).

20th September, 1965 Felixstowe, Suffolk

 

 

   At around 22:30 hours on the 20^th  September, 1965, in Felixstowe, Suffolk, three young people, Michael Johnson and Mavis Fordyce, and the car driver Geoffrey Maskey parked in Walton Avenue.  They were chatting when Michael suddenly opened his door and rushed out without a word of explanation. His friends were initially disconcerted but thought that he perhaps he needed to “answer the call of nature”.

   After a few minutes Geoffrey and Mavis heard a high pitched humming sound and saw, some 30 meters (100 feet) away, an very luminous, orange oval shaped object, approximately 2 meters long.  Accounts state that this “hovered above the car” or “Moved across the road” while illuminating the surrounding landscape in an orange gleam. The object moved fast and was lost from sight behind some trees though its sound remained clearly audible.

   After a few minutes, as they recovered from surprise, the duo realized that Michael had not returned and became anxious; they called out to him, in vain and drove in reverse along the lane and called out to him again –still getting no response. But then

Michael finally appeared looking shocked and was staggering with his hands clutching at his head. His friends first thought was that he was playing some joke, but he then collapsed onto the road. He was unconscious and so Geoffrey and Mavis got him into the car rushed him to the hospital in Felixstowe.

   At the hospital Michael regained consciousness but was unable to recognise his friends. The doctors diagnosed a serious shock and took care of his wounds: burn marks on the neck and a contusion above the right ear. For safety, he was transferred to the hospital in Ipswich which was better equipped. The next day he could go home as he was lucid again.

   He told his friends that when he had suddenly left the car without a word it was him obeying an unknown and pressing "force". He was uncertain how far he had walked but had suddenly been confronted by a humanoid entity with large oblique and luminous eyes, surrounded by orange flames. He had no memories of what happened next until he woke up at the hospital.

   It seems that the doctors scoffed at the story and joked about “Martians” while suggesting that the light they had seen was the flame from a propane gas works stack –this they all vehemently denied -and the newspapers, tipped off by a “ufological source”, had not taken the incident seriously either.

   When I first read this case I obviously asked Flying Saucer Review what had been discovered since the incident.  I got the now oh so familiar “That’s all there was to it” response. Had investigators even checked with doctors at the two hospitals –it seems not…but they could run off to the press.

An image published in conjunction with later retellings -possibly from the 1980s Unexplained magazine?

   Again, decades later, John Hanson and Dawn Holloway of the Haunted Skies Project decided to try to find out what had happened. In this case they tracked down Geoffrey Maskey who gave them a more factual account:

   “I was with my girlfriend, Mavis Forsyth, driving along Walton Avenue,

   Felixstowe, at 10.30 pm, with my friend –Michael Johnson.  ‘Mick’ asked

   me to stop the car because he needed to attend to a call of nature.  After a

   few minutes had elapsed, I began to wonder what had happened to him,

   especially when we heard what sounded like a mixture of very weird noises

   and a high-pitched humming noise, followed by the appearance of an orange,

   glowing, object lighting up part of the road, as it headed off eastwards, over

   Walton Avenue, towards the coast.

 

   “Now worried, I reversed the car up and down the road, with the window open,

   calling out his name.

 

   “About fifteen minutes later, Mick staggered out of the hedge at the side of the road,

   clutching the back of his neck, and fell onto the ground –apparently unconscious.

 

   “We managed to put Mick, who had a noticeable burn mark on the back of his

   neck, into the Vanguard car and rushed him to Felixstowe Hospital.

 

   “After arriving at the Hospital, and explaining to the casualty staff what had

   happened, he became the butt of much humour, being referred to as the ‘Martian’

   by his friends.  Mick, who seemed completely to what was going on, seemed to

   have some sort of fit and tried to take his clothes off, flaying his arms about.

   It required the strength of three or four members of staff to restrain him, before

   He was taken away for treatment”.

   Geoffrey telephoned the hospital the next morning and was told that Michael had been treated for “severe shock” and he was told that no one could visit him. Five days later Michael was discharged from hospital; Geoffrey saw that the burn mark had now disappeared from his friend’s neck.  Michael told his friend what had happened:

   “I remember seeing a glowing silver/orange object descending next to where

   I was stood, about 12 feet above me.  Standing on the side of the ‘craft’ were

   two humanoid figures wearing steel coloured suits, with arms outstretched at

   chest height, showing long pointed fingers.  I saw them go back into the ‘craft’,

   and the next thing I remember was waking up in hospital”.

 

   It seems that the police had checked the area out but found nothing unusual.  These are the facts and facts that the flying saucer fraternity should have known about at the time had they spoken to one of the trio.  Dr Bernard Finch wrote at the end of Charles Bowen’s very brief piece:

   “Several interesting points emerge from this episode. We have an example of

   ‘selective attraction’.  Why, we ask, was it only Michael Johnson and not the

   others who appeared to be attracted to the object?

 

      “Again, the other two sitting in the car appear to have been protected

   (or insulated) from the emanating force field : again, the effect of the force

   field appears remarkable in the fact that according to its intensity (or distance from

   source), so the effect varies from simple peripheral nerve paralysis to major

   interruption of cerebration, resulting in loss of consciousness, shock and loss

   of memory.”

 

   I do so love how Finch got away with such utter fantastical bilge and fantasy and all based on a newspaper clipping because it is very obvious that this is what the UFO ‘expert’ had to pontificate on.  Had he talked to any of the people involved he would have found out just what Michael recalled taking place –even the part about the doctors referring to Michael as the ‘Martian’ is incorrect. But this fine ufological tradition of investigating a case by newspaper clippings continues over fifty years later.

   If there is one thing that I have learnt, backed up by John Hanson’s own findings, is that ufology rarely bothered getting involved in leg work and the nonsense that Finch spouted shows exactly why science never takes ufology seriously. Exactly what “emanating force field” and how does the effect vary?  Then we have “the other two sitting in the car appear to have been protected (or insulated) from the emanating force field”; well that is interesting because there is then the question of just how were Geoffrey and Mavis “protected (or insulated)” –Michael was in the same car.  But this is where the lack of any investigation shows since Michael did not “suddenly rush out of the car.

   For over fifty years ufology has been quoting ‘facts’ that are wrong simply because someone –Finch and Bowen- sat in their chairs and “investigated by newspaper clipping”; no one thought to look into the report in more detail.  When I tried in the mid 2000’s to see if I could find any of those involved it seemed older locals knew about the incident but ask if Mavis, Geoffrey or Michael still lived in the area: “No idea”.  Well, we know that Geoffrey does still live in the area but locals tend to keep tight-lipped when you start asking questions.

   As for Michael, we can only hope that this was a one time encounter and that after it he got on with his life.  The question really has to be whether after something like this, when you can’t remember what happened, can you get on with your life normally?  I hope Michael has.

From 1974-2022 the work has gone on.....

 

The internet and rumours.

"Why did you destroy all your alien files?"

I have not destroyed any files. Apparently making clear statements in writing is...confusing. I made it clear that I have had to stop updating the files and following up on a lot of leads for one simple reason: I am absolutely flat broke. Paying bills is a priority as is that other thing..uh, "food"?

The fact that Ufologists in the United States have decided to just not bother cooperating even after I sent then data does not help. There is almost a complete and utter ignorance on the subject and I have seen people on blogs and on You Tube give such inaccurate and distorted versions of accounts that are easily available that I no longer correct them (politely).

From 1974-2022 the work has gone on and drained me financially. Book sales would be nice. But at the end of 2022 and beginning of 2023 I had no options or revenue left and so the files are gathering dust.

That's it.

No one cares about possibly the most important aspect of "UFOs" or wants to know about it and no one certainly wants to back the work.

Family that reported aliens in backyard goes silent | Banfield

May 1 2023 I had aliens in my backyard part 1 Update 13 06 2023

Obviously the object filmed "falling" is a meteorite. It is nothing but that and there are more than enough videos on just You Tube showing similar.  However, the TV folk would sooner call it a UFO than actually get up off their overpaid asses and do some very basic research...or even ask an astronomer.

Next the entities sighted. Pretty vague and obviously did not make that great an impression on the alleged percipients -as for the "can't see it properly but its there" video clip in which one of the entities is NOT seen.... hmm

In all honesty, based on what I have seen and heard this all looks somehow staged. Did the TV station get the police bodycam footage or was it supplied by the witness? It was all so bland and if you have ever spoken to someone involved in an entity encounter -or read an account by one- you will see how it affects them and here it's just so...bland.

Also there is only one video on this channel so I am suspecting more "revelations" following this "went viral around the world" (it did not and has not) and this was a good start to draw in the believers.

Story was dubious from the start. And George Knapp is involved as well?

“Strange Encounter At Caribou Lake” | Paranormal Stories UPDATE

What we have here is an account by a lady in her 70s that has absolutely no back-up from the other witness who refused to discuss the matter.  The diary entry...I have diaries going back to the 1990s and can make an entry in any of them today so that is not proof of anything in this case.

The other alleged percipient could have a reason for not wanting to cooperate or discuss the event. It never happened?  This may be something that has popped into the woman's head as a real event and her discussing this and her friend not wanting to when they met up (we have only one person's word on this) may indicate that the friend knew this was a fantasy or altered state experience but is not going to back-up what her friend says to "protect" her from ridicule.

You need far more to have a case be considered genuine and although it seems a very interesting story it would receive a low credibility rating because this is one person's account and we know very little about her or her mental state at the time that she reported the encounter.

The Mann family talks about their UFO encounter & alien abduction experi... UPDATE

The Mann family encounter case has been largely proven to be false. Or at the very least so badly handled that it lost credibility and even some of those involved believe the account is false (see John Hanson's excellent Haunted Skies (volume 8) for an accurate write-up.

The total mishandling of this case and the dubious use of hypnosis (which should only be used to help percipients suffering mental stress) shows just how ill equipped British Ufologists were for such cases and sadly this has not stopped. No lessons have been learnt and there is still one Ufologist who travels to first meetings with alleged percipients in encounters with a hypnotherapist to carry out regression hypnosis.

There is no code of ethics or conduct in Ufology in the UK or elsewhere.

Since 1947 it has been claimed that UFOs/flying saucers are evidence of aliens visiting the Earth.  Since the 1950s claims of encounters with landed craft and alien beings were talked about but not taken seriously.

In the 1960s the subject of UFO abduction was a “slow-burner” until the whole “Grey” abduction phenomenon and claims made by researchers such as Budd Hopkins, Prof. John Mack and Dr David Jacobs and Whitley Streiber.

But is there evidence to back up any of the claims -and what about those encountering Alien Entities but who were not abducted?

Are these people all hoaxers, psychotic or suffering from some other mental illness as some claim?

Are those people who were exposed by Ufologists against their wishes, people who wanted to report what happened and then just get back to their everyday lives -thrust into the media glare against their will?

And if US authorities were so interested that in one case at least they broke into the home of two abductees and this was later proven -why?

Why did a hard core of these people never want publicity or to make money from what happened to them?

Above all, why did a major UFO landing incident take place on a US Inbterstate road in front of a large number of observers (all willing to talk to investigators) never get investigated? If it were not for a radio presenter interviewing and taking notes we would know nothing of the case -it would be labelled “insubstantial”.

James and Coral Lorensen -the Scopolamine Kids; using a very notorious “truth drug” on alleged UFO witnesses and selling stories to newspapers.  An investigator (a veteran) showing a witness images of “aliens” encountered in other cases before any memories were retrieved.  Worst of all, the constant “pissing competition” and breaches of trust between UFO investigators.

2017 is the time to assess the past evidence and look at the faults within Ufology.

Not everyone is going to be happy -debunkers or ufologists.

Praised by Dr Mark Rodheiger of the Centre for UFO Studies and, below, John Hanson of the Haunted Skies Project and Colonel Charles Halt the officer involved in the Rendlesham incident.

The Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) says that we may have to wait many thousands of years before any signals sent gets a response if they are detected.

The real SETI may already have established the there is alien life –and it has been visiting Earth for at least 70 years.

Once the mass of reports of Close Encounters of the Third Kind and entity encounters are sifted there remains a strong core of cases that defy logical explanation and suggest that these encounters have resulted in physiological effects and post traumatic stress.

Terry Hooper-Scharf of the CE3K/AE Project has led research into these reports for over 40 years and in this work takes a look at rare or obscure reports as well as cataloguing encounters from Germany and Portugal and focuses in on correlations in the reports and how the Dandenong (Kelly Cahill) encounter could be the best case ever reported.

Have the serious investigators and researchers looking into UFOs been unearthing better evidence of extra terrestrial life and contact with humans than established SETI ?

1973 –Year of the “Global UFO Wave” 

1973 –The “Year of the Humanoids” 

1973 –The year of the Pascagoula alien abduction claim 

1973 –Several witnesses observed two Unidentified Flying Objects: one temporarily landed on a US Interstate road while the other hovered close-by. An entity appeared from the landed object. A car driver approaching from the opposite direction stops, turns his/her car and races off. This is classed as a Major Incident in Ufology. 

1973 –a driver observes a landed UFO and entities and opens fire with his gun when he felt threatened. A High Strangeness account. 

Neither of these cases was investigated despite requests for local investigators to do so. Even in 2020 the idea of opening up either as a cold case was flatly Rejected by America’s ‘top UFO investigation’ group. 

Reports now probably lost to history. 

1973 –a year in which UFO reports from African-Americans were frowned upon and ignored. Nothing has changed.
