UFOs ARE REPORTED AROUND THE WORLD -- Large 'motherships' and smaller UFOs
are being reported from almost every state including Connecticut, New York,
New Jersey, Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Louisiana, Texas, plus Columbia,
England, Germany, Brunei, and Australia. Intense solar flare activity
blasting radiation millions of miles into space has created speculation that
the UFOs are coming into Earth's atmosphere for protection. The US Air Force
investigated UFOs for twenty years admitting to more than ten thousand
sightings. Despite intensive investigation almost ten percent remain
unexplained. Congressman Gerald Ford asked Congress to investigate UFOs in
1966, is now the time?.
DISCLOSURE PROJECT CALLS FOR HEARINGS BY CONGRESS
To hold open, secrecy-free hearings on the UFO/Extraterrestrial presence on
and around Earth. To hold open hearings on advanced energy and propulsion
systems that, when publicly released, will provide solutions to global
environmental challenges. To enact comprehensive legislation to research,
develop and explore space peacefully and cooperatively with all cultures on
Earth and in space. The recorded testimony of scores of military,
government, and other witnesses to Unidentified Flying Objects and
Extraterrestrial events and projects from around the world establishes the
existence of an UFO/Extraterrestrial presence on and around Earth. This
recorded testimony consists of dozens of firsthand, often top-secret
witnesses to UFO and Extraterrestrial events, internal UFO-related government
projects and covert activities, space-based weapons programs,
Extraterrestrial Intelligence, and covert, reverse-engineered energy and
propulsion system projects.
The technologies that are of an Extraterrestrial origin, when publicly
released within a planned transition period, will provide solutions to global
environmental and security challenges. These numerous recorded witnesses
constitute only a small portion of a vast pool of identified present or
former military, intelligence, corporate, aviator, flight control, law
enforcement officers, scientists and other witnesses, who will come forward
when subpoenaed to testify at US Congressional hearings. Without a grant of
immunity releasing them from their security oaths, many such unimpeachable
witnesses fear to speak out. This will provide unprecedented benefits and
opportunities to all on Earth and in space. Contact: Alfred Webre

Editor's Note: I will be one of the speakers on May 9 in Washington, DC to
request hearings. Former President Ford told me that he was never provided
information on UFOs despite his requests as Speaker of the House, Vice
President and as President of the United States.
CONNECTICUT CIGAR MOTHERSHIP SPOTTED
KENSINGTON -- On April 13, 2001, the witness was out walking about 10:45 PM
when she saw a glowing object that looked like a diamond shooting star, only
it wasn't shooting. The witness started to look more closely. She said, it
kind of spooked me out a first, because it wasn't making a noise and it was
flying low. Then I walked onto another street when it started coming closer
going towards the center of town, (Berlin). As it flew in that direction I
saw that it was sort of a cigar shaped object with no blinking lights, just
solid red and white lights. I continued walking towards my house and then I
noticed another one coming from the same direction. I saw this person in a
car and I asked them to stop. The girl was kind of freaked out that I was
stopping her at night. "Look at that!" She goes "Its a plane" and I'm like
"NO! Its something else, I just saw another one." She was very skeptical.
I watched it go towards the same direction as the first. The second object
had the same description as the first. 1.) At first it looked like a glowing
Diamond sort of thing. 2.) It had solid red and white lights. 3.) The craft
were kind of cigar shaped. 4.) Both flew very low about the altitude of a
helicopter. 5.) They weren't making a sound. The lady who stopped asked to
use my cell phone to call her friend that lived in the area. Thanks to Peter
Davenport, Director National Reporting Center. NUFORC
"WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE?" CONTESTANT SAW UFO
On Sunday night April 29, 2001, Regis Philbin the host of the most popular
game show on television "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" asked the contestant
to tell about her UFO sighting. The contestant mentioned briefly her UFO
encounter near Pine Bush, New York. The audience chuckled, so she pointed
out that she wasn't a kook!
NEW JERSEY HUGE DISC
WEST BERLIN -- Mrs. D'Imperio writes, at 9:30 PM on September 12, 2000, our
family saw a very huge lighted disc up in the sky. My brother in-law shouted
for the family to come out on the deck. We all looked up and saw a lighted
wheel with what looked like bicycle spokes coming out of it. Another ring
was on the outside. What amazed me was lights were coming down the spokes
going around the outside of the other ring coming back to where they started
and coming together all of them in the center of the ring. They kept
repeating this action. Then from another direction of the sky came a second
object that joined going around the circle but making another spoke. As we
watched for some time two helicopters came overhead. One was bigger then the
other and went straight for what we were watching. They were flying around
for a while. If I attempted to draw the UFO, it would look like a wheel
within a wheel with lights going around and coming together in the middle. I
posted this information on the web. Thanks to Mrs. D'Imperio at alian

VIRGINIA FLYING ORBS
ROANOKE -- Andy and Robin Hodge report seeing flying yellowish white round
orb like objects? We saw two together while out on my deck April 23, 2001.
They were close together and moving so fast I barely caught a glimpse before
they were behind the clouds. They were definitely not conventional aircraft.
They could have been meteors but do they travel together in twos? I saw no
tail, just round fast moving yellowish white lights that looked like orb
shapes. There were many airplanes out during this time, but none could move
that fast! Thanks to Robin at ahodge@roava.net
OHIO GLOBE AND POSSIBLE INTERCEPT
CADIZ - The witness was coming home from work on April 19, 2001, when he
noticed a white light globe off in the distance over my house at 11:55 PM.
He states, it is very unusual for craft to fly low over my small town
residence. As I got closer to my home the globe started moving very quickly
across the sky. It would move east then stop on a dime and move west, stop
again and go straight up and east. I pulled in my drive way and the white
light globe lowered itself to three miles away. It hovered again and the
white light turned red. It stood there for a few seconds then started west,
the red light began flashing fast like a strobe light, and it just vanished.
I live outside of town with few lights and I could hear dogs all over town
barking. When the light vanished all the dogs stopped barking. Two days ago
at midnight I was watching TV when my entire house started shaking very
faintly though enough that my candles were vibrating off the window." The
witness is a very respected person in his community with a degree in law
enforcement. He ran inside grabbed his camcorder and drove to the top of the
hill where you can see for miles, but the light never came back.
OHIO UFO INTERCEPT -- James Greenen a MUFON field investigator reports that
on April 24, and 25, 2001, on paltalk.com an Internet chatroom a gentleman
who runs that sight that had a UFO fly over his car. The UFO stopped his
car. He observed a F-15 at full throttle with wings back and afterburners
on, break sound barrier and pull up along side of the UFO that suddenly made
a quick left hand turn in front of the F-15, and the pilot almost lost it.
His dad observed a UFO the night before and got pictures of it. He needs
help investigating this sighting. The control towers in a couple of cities
around him have told him that the information is none of his business. Stop
by on paltalk.com and join the group. The gentleman's name is nighthawk.

INDIANA ORANGE HOVERING FLYING TRIANGLE AND DISC
MIDDLETOWN -- We noticed an orange colored light in the sky straight ahead on
April 19, 2001, so we watched it for about twenty minutes at 4:30 AM. The
light appeared to be in a triangular formation. A plane flew underneath the
UFO and as it went under the red lights appeared on the UFO as if it were
giving a warning. The UFO started moving slowly at first gaining speed
toward the right and then it came to a stop and hovered for about five
minutes. Then a small star shaped object branched off of it and started
flying straight up and around as if it were in orbit with the earth, but
still in the atmosphere. The star shaped light disappeared, but we continued
to watch the other object as it started moving further away and disappeared.
It was neither a plane nor a star and I have never seen any thing like this
before.
CLOSE TO ILLINOIS STATE LINE -- The witness on April 18, 2001, was traveling
on Interstate 90 in Indiana, and noticed a cross like or star like object in
the sky. It was very bright opaque white and larger than surrounding stars.
The object was above horizon as we traveled late in the night. The object
rose vertically and moved in the opposite direction we were traveling. I
moved forward in my seat, turned my head upward and to the left as it passed
over the roof of the vehicle. When the object was passing I got a good side
view and a bit of the back of the object. The witness stated, "There were
many small red lights curved around the base and the lights flashed on either
side of the craft." The flashes possibly obscured more red lights on the far
side. The red lights curving gave the impression that the object was
circular or at least the base was circular. I viewed a bright, white cross
like or star like object with many smaller red lights. I will confirm time
with my spouse. Peter Davenport of NUFORC spoke with this witness, and found
her to be quite lucid and serious-minded in her description of the event. NUFORC
ILLINOIS TITANIC TEAR APPEARED WITH A GUST & VANISHED.
SCHAUMBURG -- I was outside on my roof at 2:18 AM on April 15, 2001, because
that is the time the ship Titanic sank 89 years ago. Well, I was looking up
at the stars wondering how those people felt when I saw a flash of light come
from behind me. I got scared because I thought it was lightning, and I
turned north to see for sure. There were no clouds or anything, so I turned
around. Maybe 30 seconds later it happened again and this time I felt a gust
of wind also from the North. I looked up towards the sky and saw a bright
shiny object moving very slightly in the sky. It was almost diamond/tear
shaped and definitely not a planet, star or satellite. I'm in an astronomy
class and I know the difference between the three objects. Therefore, I was
a little scared and curious. I stood up and waved at it, and then it
disappeared. Peter Davenport notes that, if this event occurred, we question
whether it had anything to do with the sinking of the Titanic.
LOUISIANA ROUND LIGHT
On April 25, 2001, at 9: 02 PM Carol sighted an object coming from the west.
The object appeared red and white kind of blended together flying fairly high
at a pretty fast speed, and faster than most planes. It got behind the many
trees in the front yard and I walked to the other side of the yard and saw it
again. Carol states, "It was a larger solid round white light moving at the
same speed gliding smoothly along as they usually do." Before leaving my
sight flying southeast, it again turned to the red mixed with white color.
It became smaller and continued on the same flight path. Sighting lasted
approximately two minutes. Thanks to Carolncbuckallew@cp-tel.net

TEXAS LARGE OVAL FLYING OBJECT
GRAHAM -- Donna B. writes that on April 24, 2001, at approximately 10:30 AM,
I observed a large oval object in the southeastern sky; it was silver in
color and was hovering. Cannot determine how high it was. It "faded"
instead of blinking out this time. There wasn't time to grab binoculars and
camera, unfortunately. Have observed this type of UFO before, but have never
seen them just fade. Thanks to Donna B. djb0898@wf.net
COLOMBIA THREE UFOs OVER CAPITAL
BOGOTÁ -- William Chavez reports that on April 23, 2001, at 4:15 p.m., three objects of unknown origin were seen flying over Bogotá where more than 3,000 people in the city's business district witnessed them. The objects were in
the vicinity of Cerro El Cable Hill where they remained motionless for four
minutes. Radio broadcaster "Radiodifusora Nacional" and Todelar phoned
Contacto OVNI, our research organization, to discuss this sighting live, and
because in recent years this type of phenomenon has become increasingly
common. Last March, a "mothership" was captured on video over Barrio Santa
Isabel. When the video was analyzed it was possible to see a large tubular
object at an altitude of 10,000 feet. This object also headed toward
Bogotá's Cerro El Cable Hill. On April 15th, Mr. Oscar Berrio filmed a
disc-shaped object in the vicinity of El Dorado Airport, and we are
investigating this sighting. Thanks to SHnSASSY1 and Contacto OVNI

UNITED KINGDOM 23RD UFO SEEN OVER DALES IS GIANT DISC
DERBYSHIRE, ENGLAND -- Andy Darlington of the Matlock Mercury Newspaper
writes, "The mystery of UFO sightings over the Peaks and Dales shows no signs
of abating after the 23rd reported sighting in the last eight months." Since
September, locals have spoken of strange lights, flying saucers, and huge
triangular craft in the skies. One was even caught on video. Now a
34-year-old Wirksworth man, who asked not to be named, says he saw a giant
disk-shaped craft over Idridgehay. He was driving to market in Derby at 3:00
AM when he saw the UFO hovering near the road. In addition, he was the first
person who'd seen the UFOs to admit feeling afraid by what he saw. "It did
frighten me because I couldn't explain what it was," he remarked. "I've
never seen anything like this before and logic couldn't explain it. It was
shocking. I've never been believer in UFOs and sightings but I believe in
them now." The man said the craft was hovering above woods and seemed to
rotate. It had blue, red, and white lights. The incident follows another
sighting of three flying saucers above Youlgrave last Wednesday. Thanks to

GERMANY HAS 40 UFO SIGHTINGS
MANNHEIM -- Christian Siedenbiedel reports that the German UFO Registration
Office run by Werner Walter has been stressed out since the beginning of
February. "A new UFO craze has started in Germany," groans the 43-year-old
man who has headed the Office for the past 10 years. "Forty unidentified
flying objects in six weeks -- that's more than in 1999 and 2000 put
together." Mr. Walter puts some of the blame for this latest wave of UFO
hysteria on increased television coverage of the crash of the Russian Mir
space station, the planet Venus, and disco searchlights. Even the police
called on one occasion; claim they had pursued a UFO in their patrol car.
These were most likely the searchlights. A woman in the town of KONSTANZ,
claimed she had seen a cylindrical object that was several hundred meters
(yards) long above her on the market square in broad daylight. Someone in
Hamburg observed a "classical" flying saucer with a diameter of 30 meters
(100 feet). An "extraterrestrial theme park" is even being built for
millions in Switzerland. Thanks to Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung Apr. 23,
2001.
BRUNEI UFO SIGHTING
GADONG -- On April 26, 2001, a husband and wife claimed that they had seen an
unknown flying object in Gadong's airspace at around 12:30 AM. They were on
their way home from a dinner occasion when Philip Chua, 33, and wife, Silvia
Goh Mei Ling, 28, were shocked by the bright object in the skies. They had
earlier seen the UFO around the area of Jalan Tungku Link. Coincidentally,
he had a camera with him. He stopped his car and took pictures of the
object, but the object vanished as if 'it' knew someone was taking pictures
of 'it'. He said when interviewed by Media Permata. Upon passing a bridge
near Emperor's Court, the wife claimed that they saw an object that appeared
again near Rimba, The next day; Chua sent the film to his friend's shop to be
developed. Strangely, while his friend was processing the film, the shop's
power was cut off for an hour. However, Chua felt relief as the object was
captured on the film. He spread the word around his friends. Translated via

AUSTRALIA FLYING TRIANGLE
SALT ASH, NSW -- Darryyll Jones writes that he holds an ultra light pilots
license and a yachtsman so he is more aware of the sky. On April 26, 2001,
15 miles north of Newcastle. I was looking at the sky with a friend at 8:00
PM when a huge triangular outlined shape formed by white lights, mostly on
the leading edge, but enough on the trailing edge to define this boomerang
outline, flew directly over head. It had to be massive. My first impression
was that it was between 10,000 to 30,000 feet high. It was 5 degrees wide,
silent and flew straight with no ionization trail. Suddenly it was gone like
the lights went out. Only minute's later single lights began scribing
perfect arc's between 40 to 80 degrees south, first in one direction then the
other in exactly the same circuit, then they too were gone. They were making
a crescent shape as they too were fading out in the western portion of their
arc. I have wracked my brain for an explanation such birds, aircraft, or
asteroids. My friend and I sat down and made notes that were near identical.
We concluded the most likely explanation was a mother ship and the single
orbs somehow came from it.
I am still far from satisfied with that explanation though. As the military
aircraft from a nearby RAAF base were out in larger than normal numbers, the
three helicopters and possibly five F18's might have been a laser type
focused display. The triangle was "flying" in the direction of the base. My
friend was looking the other way when I spotted the triangle approaching. He
got two and a half seconds to observe it, while I got five. We agreed on
what we saw. The orbs were around for 13 passes for three minutes at very
high speed. They dimmed out as they headed west for the sun now over the
horizon, suggesting again deep space objects. The main group and then
fractured and returned to earth much like fighter pilots peel off. There was
a small storm in the distance with heavy lightning that continued all night.
Others claim to regularly see the big triangle inland at Bathurs. Thanks to
Darryyll Jones vital.earth@hunterlink.net.au.
Editor's Note: Two well qualified witnesses observed a UFO. The craft may
be stationed at the nearby air base or pulling into our atmosphere for
protection from unusually heavy solar flares emanating from our sun.
SPACE TOURIST DENNIS TITO CHECKS INTO SPACE STATION
US businessman Dennis Tito paid the Russians $20 million to go into space.
He blasted off successfully in the Soyuz TM-32 spacecraft and became the
first space tourist when. He and his two cosmonaut crewmates successfully
docked with the international space station on April 30, as the two vehicles
sailed 240 miles above central Asia. Tito says, "I love space." The 60
year-old apparently had no problems adjusting to space. "It was a great trip
here." The US strongly opposed the trip by an American civilian. It will be
interesting to find out what he sees in space.

TAIWAN HEROIC DOGFIGHT
This is a translation of a Taiwan Daily Gazette article. "In a heroic
dogfight fought over international waters off the mainland China coast, a 60s
era American-built Lockheed Electra propeller airliner with 24 US Navy
passengers/observers aboard chewed up one of China's best state-of-the-art
supersonic fighter aircraft. The Americans, utilizing the infrequently seen
combat tactic of straight and level flight, often accomplished by relying
solely on autopilot, engaged the unfortunate single seat combat jet and
knocked it out of the air using only one of its four formidable rotating air
mass propellers. After the action, the crew and passengers/observers dropped
in on China's Hainan Island Resort, for some much-deserved R&R as guests of
the Chinese government. Reprinted from the Taiwan Daily Gazette by staff
writer One Wing Lo, Ray (WA4RLB) and Brenda Burt
THE UFO - JESUS CONNECTION
David E. Twichell writes, "The ancient astronaut and Biblical UFO hypotheses
are not new. However, no one seems to want to take the matter to the next
logical step. If Ezekiel's, "wheel within a wheel," and Moses', "pillar of
fire and cloud," were forerunners of today's UFOs, then the Star of Bethlehem
and the brilliant cloud to which Jesus ascended must be treated in the same
vein. When Biblical descriptions of anomalous aerial phenomena are overlaid
on that of modern-day UFO reports, the picture seems to meld as one. Once
the evidence has been presented, the reader is led to a conclusion that is at
best convincing and at least thought provoking. Are you willing to risk
having your worldview shaken? Read the preface free at:

NEW NASA SHUTTLE VIDEO OF UFOs IN SPACE
Jeff Challender has prepared a new tape of various UFOs that were caught on
recent Shuttle video footage. Jeff has over an hour-long tape of UFOs shot
in space. Jeff spends hundreds of hours watching the shuttle broadcasts from
space and is now an expert on NASA missions and even those onboard the
shuttle are unlikely to see what Jeff does. Using Jeff's directions you will
be able to learn the difference between space junk, ice crystals and real
UFOs. One segment has 24 UFOs watching the shuttle from space. I feel
confident we could go into a court of law and convince any jury, UFOs are
moving around our Earth. Send $25 to: Jeff Challender 2768 Mendel Way -
