The UFO Challenge by Stanton Friedman

Stanton Friedman, a nuclear physicist with a long-standing interest in flying saucers since 1958, presents four major conclusions:

1. Earth is being visited by intelligently controlled extraterrestrial spacecraft.
2. The subject of flying saucers is akin to a 'Cosmic Watergate,' with governments possessing knowledge since the 1947 New Mexico crash involving two saucers and alien bodies.
3. Arguments against these conclusions by debunkers like Carl Sagan are flawed.
4. The alien visitation and US government cover-up of data (bodies and wreckage) is the biggest story of the millennium.

Friedman notes that he has lectured extensively on the topic and has encountered few hecklers. He asserts that over 97% of people are unaware of the scientific studies supporting his claims. He points to opinion polls and a 1995 Oxford University debate where the affirmative side (that Earth is visited by extraterrestrials) won 60% of the vote. A 1997 London TV debate saw 92% of callers agree that Earth has been visited by aliens.

• Friedman identifies four rules employed by debunkers:
• Withholding information, even from official USAF UFO studies.
• Dismissing facts and sticking to pre-formed opinions.
• Attacking the people presenting the data rather than the data itself.
• Making proclamations rather than conducting investigations.

He explains why prominent figures in science and journalism have not embraced the UFO topic:

1. Ignorance of the data: Debunkers often lack knowledge of the subject.
2. Fear of ridicule: Academics and editors fear professional repercussions for engaging with UFO research.
3. Ego: The belief that if aliens were visiting, they would announce themselves publicly.
4. Failure to use technological knowledge: A reluctance to consider that technological advancements might make interstellar travel feasible.

Friedman criticizes the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) cult for its focus on radio signals, suggesting it mocks the idea of flying saucers. He claims the NSA and CIA are withholding UFO data, citing his fourteen years of work under security and his study of the Majestic-12 documents as evidence. He concludes that while humanity's future is in space, 'we are not alone,' and hopes we will qualify for 'admission to the Cosmic Kindergarten.'

The issue also advertises Friedman's CD-ROM 'UFOs: The Real Story' and his videos 'Flying Saucers Are Real Vol. 1 & 2.'

The Woodmere Encounter by Brian Vike

This article details a significant UFO sighting that occurred on February 1st, 2002, involving three women traveling on Highway 16 between Smithers and Houston, British Columbia. They observed a large, bright object descending from the clouds to just above tree-top level. The object passed directly over their vehicle, allowing them a clear view of its underside. The experience left one of the women deeply frightened. Vike investigated the incident, interviewing the witnesses and driving to the location. He notes that the RCMP in Houston and Smithers became interested, and he was questioned extensively. The article mentions that military exercises were reportedly taking place in the area around the same time, which Vike felt was worth investigating due to other sightings in the vicinity.

We're UFO Central by Jennifer Lang

This article, researched by Brian Vike and written by Jennifer Lang, highlights Northern British Columbia, particularly the Terrace area, as a 'hot spot' for unusual sightings. It recounts the experience of three women who saw a bright, shining object that moved strangely in the sky near Telkwa. Brian Vike, a former forest industry worker and full-time UFO investigator for four years, is introduced as a key contact for these reports. Vike emphasizes that the witnesses are 'normal folks' and 'church-goers' who were genuinely scared by their experience. After the Telkwa sighting gained media attention, Vike's request for information resulted in a flood of reports, totaling 66 unexplained sightings from communities along and north of Highway 16. Terrace is identified as the region with the highest number of sightings (17), followed by other towns like Kitimat, Cranberry Junction, Kitwanga, Old Hazelton, New Hazelton, Smithers, Telkwa, Houston, Burns Lake, Francois Lake, Vanderhoof, and Prince George. Vike notes that most reports came in during February and March 2002. The article mentions similarities and differences in the sightings, with some described as meteors or stars, while others involved objects performing 'aerial feats' that defy conventional aircraft capabilities. Examples include five points of light that moved in a ring and vanished, and a large bright white light with an orange haze seen by multiple witnesses. A cigar-shaped cloud with tubular stringers is also mentioned. Vike, who has a background in astronomy, aims to find possibilities that fit the observed phenomena. He also mentions working on other intriguing cases.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are UFO sightings, paranormal events, and the challenges of investigation and public awareness. The editorial stance, as presented by Brian R. Vike, is one of open inquiry and a desire to document and share unexplained phenomena. Vike actively encourages witnesses to come forward, highlighting the role of media in bringing attention to these events. The magazine aims to provide a platform for reporting and investigating these occurrences, particularly within Canada. There is a clear emphasis on the reality of UFO phenomena, with articles like Stanton Friedman's strongly advocating for the extraterrestrial hypothesis and criticizing skepticism. The magazine positions itself as a source of information for those interested in the unexplained, encouraging a scientific yet open-minded approach to investigating these mysteries.

This issue of HBCC UFO Research, published by the Terrace Standard Newspaper, Volume 15, No. 15, dated Wednesday, July 17, 2002, focuses on UFO Central and crop circle phenomena, alongside explorations into ancient technology and alien abductions.

UFO Central and Sightings

The magazine begins by addressing common UFO reports, noting that Venus is often mistaken for a UFO, along with aircraft, meteors, satellites, and stars. However, it highlights that many north-west sightings remain unexplained. A researcher is investigating potential 'attractions' to Alcan, possibly related to a 'big power source,' and plans to contact observatories and aviation agencies. The article mentions that some reports, including the Telkwa Sighting and Terrace reports, are slated for a Discovery Channel episode.

A reader named Brian from Richmond, B.C., shares information about a potential secret German encampment in British Columbia, active since the 1950s, where high-tech flying saucers and aerial vehicles were engineered. This information was reportedly corroborated by a local resident and is associated with areas named Eagle and Murphy Lake, south-east of Lac la Hache, near Green Lake. The area is described as remote and guarded, potentially more secretive than Area 51.

Another section details a UFO sighting in Lillooet, British Columbia, from the winter of 1966. The author, Sourdough Sue Ward, recounts an experience with a friend where they witnessed a large, red swirling ball with flaming edges approaching rapidly, hovering, and then receding. The event left them shaken and questioning what they had seen.

In 1967, the Cariboo region of British Columbia experienced an 'abundance of UFO sightings.' The Canadian UFO Report dedicated a section to this period, calling it 'the year we were invaded without knowing it.' One witness, Barbara Begin, from McLeese Lake, describes seeing a large, bright silver 'cigar' shaped object before dusk. She recalls the object being self-illuminated and making no sound. Barbara also reported a pulsating red light, about the size of a soccer ball, seen about 24 days later, which appeared to be studying newly installed power project cables. She estimates seeing about ten other strange lights that fall.

Crop Circles

The issue extensively covers crop circles, focusing on a formation discovered in Vanderhoof, British Columbia, on September 6, 2001. Brent Miskuski, owner of Central Air Corp., first spotted the formation of six circles from his aircraft near the Vanderhoof airport. A reporter for Northern Television, Jennifer Crosby, also inquired about this event. The investigator visited the site and spoke with locals, including a variety store clerk and an elderly lady, who both reported a foul, smoky odor on the night the circles appeared. The circles were located in a farmer's field approximately three miles east of the airport. The investigator documented the formation, naming one circle 'Mickey Mouse' due to its shape. Detailed measurements of each circle's diameter and circumference are provided, along with data on how the grain was bent. The grain was reportedly not broken but pushed down, with bends occurring a few inches up the stalk. The 'Mickey Mouse' head circle had grain bent clockwise, while others showed counter-clockwise bending. The investigator collected grain and soil samples and took photographs. An interesting note mentions a report of a large bright object hovering over the area the night before the crop circles were discovered, observed by biologists checking fish traps.

Wireless World and Ancient Technology

Doug Yurchey contributes an article titled "Wireless World," exploring the theories of Nikola Tesla and ancient civilizations. Tesla's dream of a global wireless power system, using nine transmitters to convert natural electro-magnetism into power, is discussed. The article posits that this technology might have existed thousands of years ago, with ancient ruins potentially being part of an organized network of 'utility poles' or power receivers. Examples cited include monoliths in Egypt, Mayan constructions, and the 'ladder in the sky' legends. Edgar Cayce's writings on Atlantean survivors using crystals and vibrations for technology are also mentioned. The theory suggests that the distribution of 'Cradles of Civilization' sites around the planet might align with a global grid, implying a shared ancient technology. The article presents a '13-Point Map' channeled in 1974, linking sites like Atlantis, Egypt, Peru, England (Stonehenge), Easter Island, India, Africa (Zimbabwe), West Africa (Tassili), Sea of Japan, Australia, Russia, Brazil, and Canada.

Abductees, Implants & Other Alien Stuff

Peter R. Farley writes about the topic of alien abductions, drawing from experiences at the Roswell 50th Anniversary UFO Encounter. He notes that while the subject is exciting for some, it is painful for abductees who struggle to find answers and understanding. The article highlights the reluctance of professionals in psychology and counseling to engage with alien abduction cases due to potential judgment from colleagues. It mentions Budd Hopkins, a pioneer in treating abductees, who advised a woman to see a doctor, indicating the difficulty in finding specialized help. The article touches upon Travis Walton's abduction story, suggesting it was embellished for a Hollywood movie. It discusses the phenomenon of 'missing time' associated with abductions, citing an example of a couple who lost four hours of time while driving, with only vague memories of lights following them. The piece suggests that abductees may not be consciously aware of their experiences, with evidence sometimes appearing as nightmarish dreams, clinical hypnosis, or unexplained scars.

Caught On The Web

Brian provides a list of useful websites for UFO research and related topics, including the Jeff Rense Radio Program, Filers Research Institute, Space Telescope Science Institute, Solar System Simulator, High Energy Astrophysics Science Archive Research Center, World Time and Dialling Codes, Alta Vista Foreign Languages, Science Astronomy Space Watch, National UFO Reporting Center, British Columbia's Newspapers, and RefDesk.Com.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are UFO sightings, crop circles, ancient mysteries, and alien abduction. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into these phenomena, presenting witness accounts, investigative reports, and theoretical discussions without definitive conclusions, encouraging readers to explore the topics further. The HBCC UFO Research organization actively collects and disseminates information on these subjects.

This issue of UFO*BC, titled "Sightings," focuses on reports of unidentified flying objects and encounters with cryptids, primarily from Canada. The magazine presents a collection of sighting reports, interviews, and articles exploring paranormal phenomena.

Alien Abduction and Crystal Implants

The central theme explored in the initial pages is the phenomenon of alien abduction and the alleged presence of 'crystal implants' within abductees. Drs. Loren and Diane Mickelson, described as psychically gifted individuals with backgrounds in academia and corporate environments, have dedicated their work to helping people overcome limitations, including those imposed by alien abduction.

They claim that many people have been abducted and implanted with crystals, often without conscious memory of the event, only experiencing lingering effects. These implants, they assert, are used for tracking and can cause significant physical and emotional limitations, even leading to illnesses like cancer and chronic fatigue syndrome. The Mickelsons offer a procedure to remove these crystals, which they state can alleviate these issues and restore a person's natural abilities and potential.

Loren Mickelson is described as clairsentient and able to tune into different dimensions, while Diane Mickelson possesses multidimensional sight and hearing. Both are certified Reiki masters. Their involvement with alien abductees began after a 'mysterious' encounter at a rock and mineral show. They explain that the concept of programmed crystals used for control dates back to ancient civilizations like Lemuria and Atlantis, where politicians allegedly used them to suppress opposition.

The removal process is described as safe, with potential side effects like nausea or euphoria that quickly subside, leaving a sense of calm. They estimate that about 40 percent of the population may have crystal implants. The Mickelsons' practice has expanded to six levels of treatment, including removal of self-imposed limitations and preparation for 'soul emergence patterning.' They note that the initial levels can be performed absentee.

Sasquatch Sightings in British Columbia

A significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to documenting Sasquatch sightings in British Columbia, Canada. The article explores the phenomenon of the 'Wild Man of the Forest,' comparing it to Bigfoot and Yeti.

Several specific sightings are detailed:

• Sighting #1 (1974): A creature described as a hair-covered, human-like being, over six feet tall, with hands instead of paws and a strong odor, was observed standing on its hind legs eating berries near Lorne Creek.
• Sighting #2 (1974): Large, fresh footprints were found on Ferry Island, leading to speculation that it might be the same creature seen at Lorne Creek.
• Sighting #3 (Local Landfill): A worker encountered a creature over 10 feet tall among the garbage, which then walked into the bush. Footprints were found to be 5 feet apart, and the creature moved easily through deep snow.
• Sighting #4 (c. 1950): Two logger brothers reported a creature that stripped branches from trees and ate tender tips, leaves, and buds.
• Sighting #5 (c. 1980): Two men driving near Lakelse Lake saw a tall, hair-covered, human-like creature standing in swampy water, which appeared terrified and dashed into the swamp.
• Sighting #6 (1985): A woman living on the Queen Charlotte Islands reported an acquaintance witnessing a tall, hair-covered creature throw a deer over its shoulder and flee into the woods after a rock was thrown at the deer.
• Sighting #7 (1967): Fred, an immigrant, encountered a strong, pungent odor similar to a decaying carcass on a mountain trail, with his dog refusing to proceed. Later, he heard a story about two hair-covered human-like creatures, one adult and one younger, eating pine needle tips near Rosswood.

The article also touches on the difficulty of classifying Sasquatch, with legal departments unsure how to handle a captured specimen. It speculates that Sasquatch might be an evolutionary experiment that became 'stuck,' possessing a primate-like brain size but an upright, climbing-adapted body.

UFO Sightings Reports

The magazine includes several brief reports of UFO sightings from various locations:

• Port Coquitlam, BC (October-November 2000): A witness reported seeing a flashing light and later developing photos that revealed a craft below the light, possibly due to light-bending technology failing under specific sunset conditions.
• St. Albert, Alberta (July 7, 2002): Witnesses saw shiny, rotating objects resembling paper, followed by higher, shiny balls.
• Calgary, Alberta (July 12, 2002): A flashing light was observed moving horizontally and silently, too fast for an aircraft, displaying multiple colors.
• Edmonton, Alberta (July 15, 2002): A young boy reported seeing a grey object with blinking lights, followed by a second, darker object.
• Terrace, BC (April 26-29, 2002): A witness observed a bright object moving low, dropping pale green lights, and on subsequent nights, saw other strange objects.
• Vanderhoof, BC (February 2002): A witness reported a very bright white light east of town, resembling aircraft landing lights.
• Sinkut Mountain area, BC (February/March 2002): Multiple witnesses reported a bright white light that moved erratically.
• Surrey, BC (May 14, 2002): A glowing orange ball was observed, which released two 'fireballs' before disappearing.
• Vancouver, BC (May 16, 2002): A small white object was seen moving slowly, reversing direction, and exhibiting unusual behavior.

Other Mentions

The issue also mentions the book "Where Were You Before the Tree of Life?" by Peter R. Farley, which explores alien interaction with Earth. It also references the work of researchers like Erich Von Daniken and Zecharia Sitchin, and notes the organizer of the Abductee Forum at the Roswell UFO Festival, Budd Hopkins.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are UFO sightings, alien abduction experiences, and the phenomenon of Sasquatch. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into these unexplained phenomena, presenting witness accounts and expert opinions without overt skepticism. The magazine actively promotes the work of researchers and practitioners in these fields, such as the Mickelsons and Peter Farley, and encourages readers to engage with the information presented. There is a clear interest in exploring the potential for extraterrestrial or unknown terrestrial intelligence influencing human lives and the planet.

Title: Canadian Communicator
Issue: 33
Date: March 13, 2002
Publisher: HBCC UFO Research
Country: Canada
Language: English

This issue of the Canadian Communicator, published by HBCC UFO Research, delves into the intriguing world of Sasquatch and UFO phenomena, with a strong focus on sightings within British Columbia. The cover story, "Sasquatch In B.C.," explores the nature of the Sasquatch, comparing its intelligence and behavior to that of humans and chimpanzees, and pondering its evolutionary place.

Sasquatch In B.C.

The article "Sasquatch In B.C." discusses the physical characteristics and behavior of the Sasquatch, noting its intelligence relative to other primates, its adaptation to weather with a heavy fur coat, and its likely solitary nature, coming together only to mate. It suggests that the scarcity of Sasquatch might be due to the long time it takes for females to raise offspring, similar to humans. The piece also touches upon the close genetic relationship between humans and chimpanzees, and the ongoing debate about classifying chimpanzees as sub-human. It posits that the Sasquatch might occupy a space between humans and chimpanzees, but is not the 'missing link' as all three likely evolved from a common ancestor.

Sighting # 8

This report details an incident from the summer of 1988 where a witness named Dan and his wife were visiting a friend near Old Lakelse Lake Road. While stretching his legs, Dan observed what he initially thought was a large moose running into a dense grove of trees. The friend's dogs, upon being released, reacted with extreme fear, yapping and scratching at the door to get back inside. Dan found no moose tracks but noted large, faint impressions in the moss. He suspected a Sasquatch sighting, noting the dogs' unusual fear of the creature compared to their boldness with a grizzly bear, questioning if they instinctively sense something unknown to humans.

Sighting # 9

Reported by Larry, this sighting occurred in late July or early August 1991, near the Ontario-Manitoba border close to Westhawk Lake. Dan and his wife witnessed a large, hair-covered, human-like creature running across the highway. Dan described the hair on its head as standing upright like a comb, and his wife noticed steam rising from its shoulder. The creature appeared to be in a panic, running from something. The report notes that similar sightings were reported locally and made the news, suggesting the Sasquatch is not confined to the Rockies but can appear anywhere, including the prairies.

Sightings Reports

This section details several UFO sightings, primarily from British Columbia, collected by HBCC UFO Research.

Smithers, British Columbia - February 1, 2002

This report, received on March 24, 2002, may be a confirmation of a February 1, 2002 sighting involving three ladies who witnessed a large boomerang-shaped object 3 kilometers east of Telkwa. The object passed directly over their vehicle as they were heading east on Highway #16 towards Houston.

Smithers, British Columbia - March 24, 2002

A gentleman from Smithers reported seeing a bright white object while driving home. He observed it for about five minutes, describing it as possibly a para-glider with a single bright white light that would dim. He estimated its height at approximately 1500 feet and noted it made slow turns over the town. The weather was overcast, similar to the Telkwa sighting. The witness came forward after reading an article in the Smithers Interior Newspaper that included contact information for HBCC UFO Research.

Investigators Note

Following the February 1, 2002 sighting, there was reportedly an increase in unusual air traffic in the area, with multiple aircraft patrolling the skies, according to sources close to the investigators.

HBCC UFO Research Activity

HBCC UFO Research has had a busy year since February 1, 2002, receiving 54 reported sightings, many of which remain unexplained.

Houston, British Columbia - March 21, 2002

A witness in Houston reported seeing a very bright white object with an orange glow around it while looking at new trucks. The object was located behind a car dealership. When the witness and his friend took pictures using a flash, the object rose from its stationary position and moved slowly towards them. The witness described the object as much brighter than town lights and noted that it looked like a star in photos but was clearly different when viewed with the naked eye.

#### Houston, B. C. Sighting Continued...

Investigators noted that the object in the Houston sighting was not as far away as the photos suggested. They identified a barn in the field where the object was hovering and planned to take further photos. One of the witnesses reported having difficulty sleeping after the sighting due to the unfamiliar nature of the object. The report also mentions that the flash used during photography can wash out the image and potentially affect the outcome of the photos. The witness described four separate sightings of the same object, a white light with an orange haze, on different nights around the town, often hovering over the old barn.

Letters To The Editor

Earth - "The E.T. Squatters" Destination

Mal Pennington of Houston, B.C. wrote a letter to the editor expressing his belief that multiple extraterrestrial intelligences may have discovered Earth and established a presence. He notes the variety in reported UFO occupant appearances, suggesting different ET groups. Pennington speculates on the technological advancement of these civilizations and questions their intentions towards humanity, drawing an analogy to humans discovering a planet with needed resources and primitive inhabitants. He also mentions that Brian Vike of HBCC UFO Research has been inundated with UFO sightings in their area and encourages vigilance and carrying cameras, quoting a UFOlogist who stated that UFOs are a phenomenon of "Random Chance."
