The massively popular UFO website UFOCasebook.com is currently showing a, “Website Suspended" message:This is NOT due to anything other than administrational difficulties which have come about by the owner (Mr BJ Booth) trying to provide a higher quality service to his readership by way of posting (and making available for download) high quality videos which directly relate to articles published

I was recently contacted by South Shields resident, Rick Frame, who wanted to share the details of his recent UFO sighting. It hasn't been reported anywhere else and from our brief correspondence the witness (Rick) appears genuine, hasn't contacted the media and so has nothing to gain by sharing his experience. (And of course permission was granted to share his report).14th February at 5.30 (p.m)

Many of the released files included sketches. A craft containing three beings was drawn by a passenger on a flight from Heathrow to Hong Kong in 1993.A drawing and description of a "flying saucer" sighting over Watford in Hertfordshire was also among the 6,000 pages of newly-released documents.A sighting above Trenale Lane, near Tintagel, Cornwall, was also documented.

In the interests of getting to the truth..... (A rebuttal from Lisa Romanek). A couple of days after the documentary aired (can be viewed here) and Danny Dyer stated that a fee of $50,000 was requested by the ‘agent' of Stan Romanek for access to his footage (and one assumes also for the interview) I became aware that this was being disputed by Stan's wife:“As for his ending comment, I would like

As I was writing my last Blog post about this exact situation I received a Google alert regarding a FOX News story which yet again echoes earlier calls which directly bring the Suns jounalistic integrity(?) into question. The article is regarding the Dublin/Sun article which was posted on the 22nd Jan (2010) and references a PeopleMagazineDaily article. PeopleMagazineDaily actually posted an

The Future Of UK UFO Reports: ‘Lies' In The Sun? As Blogged about recently The Sun (newspaper) posted an article online in which they attributed a UFO video to Ireland when it was from California, and in the middle of the article they (completely unprompted and unrelated) had the following text italicised:And today (29 Jan 2010) a couple of days later they posted an article with the headline, “

Back in July of 2009 Dyer had the following to say about the upcoming documentary: "It's called I Believe. It shows a different side to me. Rather than running around with dangerous, deadly men and all that, I'm trying to break the mould.....I've always had a thing about UFOs since I was a kid.

New Zealand have revealed that they are to be the next in a growing number of countries who are releasing their -previously classified- UFO files (France, UK, Brazil, Denmark etc.) however according to one report it seems as if their tact may be similar to that of the UK:The documents are being currently held by the Archives New Zealand and they were originally to be made public this month, but

As highlighted on this Blog several times (amongst many other sites) the Sun newspaper (UK) has constantly exploited UFO reports, sacrificing common-sense and facts in an effort to establish themselves as the ‘go to' people for UFO reports in the UK. With the recent announcement by the MoD that they weren't intending to collect any further UFO reports from the general public it seems that the Sun

UFO Crash Used As Teaching Tools (Again!!) This is by no means the first time that an alleged “ crashed ” UFO has been used as a teaching tool and I should perhaps point out that I don't think it's necessarily a bad idea. Not because ‘ any publicity is good publicity' but due more to promoting a sense of general awareness and understanding, but I digress….. I actually Blogged about an earlier

A UK (Bristol) based gym has drew criticism for daring to inject a little comedy into their marketing campaign , the campaign which is aimed at recruiting new members has prompted ‘Public Outrage' according to Metro.co.uk. Strangely it seems as if most (if not all!!) alien-based marketing campaigns are destined for failure as can be witnessed by the alien advert that New Mexico put out a little

As expected the recent holiday period was littered with reports of ‘orange orbs' and lights in the sky (LITS) and from what I can gather this was due to no more than the proliferation of Chinese Lanterns and their many derivatives. Indeed many of the online media sites that covered the reports tended to follow up with an explanatory article several days later, it would of course be futile to

The following is from, "Defining A Close Encounter".Close Encounter Of The Third Kind: The Third kind is when you not only encounter a UFO, but when you can also see the entities inside the UFO. Hynek was very careful to label this encounter as one which observed, “Animate beings,” within the UFO, note how he doesn't reference aliens or extraterrestrial, this was in conjunction with his own

The following account was posted on the 20th December (2009) by a “Davey (Geordie Dave) Curtis” and was titled, “Mothman in Seaham on Sea? Hmmmmm”. Obviously it's not my usual fare but due both to the close proximity to me and the fact that it is involving one of my favourite mythological (?) creatures complete with Keel references then I thought it warranted a mention. There are images of the

Smithsonian recently posted a short article online by Rob Irving and Peter Brookesmith charting Crop Circles and their origins and was somewhat contentiously titled, “Crop Circles: The Art of the Hoax,” well, I suppose it's contentious among certain groups it is however a title that I personally thought befitting of its content.
