Despite the fact that the United States Air Force continues to claim that they have had nothing to do with unidentified flying objects since 1969, when Project Blue Book was shut down, several US veterans recently spoke at a press conference (for the National Press Club) in Washington, DC. During the press conference, the seven ex-military recounted their encounters with UFOs, including incidences of sightings and possible disablement of nuclear missiles that took place in the 60’s and 70’s. Beyond the claims that the USAF makes about having nothing to do with UFOs, it also states that of the over 12,000 UFO sightings it has studied, none of them were either found to be threatening or technologically remarkable.
However, even before this whole press conference went down, Capstan Edward Ruppelt (a member of the United States Air Force) said that there was a cover up going on and misinformation was being spread. He went on to say that writing off the sightings of UFOs by claiming the things seen were weather balloons or hallucinations is a convenient and quick way to move along past the sighting, but it is no more a valid way of dealing with the sighting as resetting a clock to try and change the time.
Captain Ruppelt also points out that many of these sightings are clustered around objects or areas that tend to have somewhat more advanced or complicated technology (including atomic energy installations, harbors, and critical manufacturing areas). This, he says, may well indicate some interest in the technologies available to us on the part of those piloting potential extraterrestrial crafts, though intentions are not so easily guessed. His theory is supported, he says, by the fact that military air defense outposts, A-bomb storage, and large military depots don’t produce many sightings, nor do areas with large populations which lack an abundance of interesting technology. Capitan Ruppelt points out that, statistically, if there was no intelligence manipulating the flight paths of these UFOs, these clusters around technologically advanced and complex areas would be few and far between, if they existed at all. Instead, the sighting pattern should look much more like the population distribution.
