NEWSLETTER TWENTY-SIX

Magazine Overview

Title: NEWSLETTER TWENTY-SIX
Issue Date: MARCH 2006
Publisher: DISCLOSURE AUSTRALIA
Country: Australia
Language: English

This document is the twenty-sixth newsletter from DISCLOSURE AUSTRALIA, dated March 2006. It provides updates on the organization's activities, welcomes new members, and details upcoming events and investigations related to UFO phenomena.

Organizational Updates and New Members

The newsletter begins by welcoming Mishelle Miller to the AURA team in South Australia, noting her residence in the northern part of the state and expressing confidence that she will be a valuable addition to AURA and the broader UFO community. The organization anticipates significant changes in the coming months, involving both new members and a redefined outline of work for the next ten months.

Witness Location Program and Investigations

AURA remains heavily involved in tracking Disclosure Australia and urges interested individuals to participate in the witness location program. This program aims to systematically identify and interview witnesses willing to provide on-the-record testimony, thereby substantiating the project's findings. The newsletter emphasizes the importance of in-depth interviews, especially given the current climate where witnesses are increasingly willing to go public. The organization believes that even simple data collection could prove invaluable in the future.

Notable Sightings and Testimonies

February saw the public appearance of a camera operator witness who reportedly operated a Contraves Theodolite at the Woomera rocket base during its active years. This individual observed strange objects that allegedly 'buzzed' a target vehicle under test, with claims that these objects may have been captured on film.

On February 13th, 2006, Lisbeth May addressed the South Australian public at an AURA meeting. Her interview, previously made available through the Adelaide Conference of 2005, was presented. The newsletter indicates plans to present this information at a national level in May.

The March public meeting experienced a low turnout, attributed to it being a public holiday Monday. The author notes the need to update the contact list due to many emails being defunct, highlighting the challenge of informing individuals without internet access.

Special Guest Presentations

Our special guest speaker for March was Larraine Cilia from UFOSWS, NSW. She presented on the mysteries of Rendlesham Forest, showcasing imagery and discussing the paranormal behavior associated with a strange UFO incident that occurred there over 25 years prior. This presentation was described as a preview of material she would present in full at the national UFO conference in Sydney later that year.

Looking ahead, the April meeting's special guest will be AURA co-founder Keith Basterfield. His talk, titled "Confessions of a UFO Researcher" and "What Do We Know About UFO's?", will be a short presentation followed by an interactive session. The newsletter recommends attending this event, given Basterfield's extensive experience in UFO research.

Contact Information

The newsletter concludes with contact details for DISCLOSURE AUSTRALIA, including a PO Box and email address, with Dominic McNamara listed as the contact for the project.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this newsletter are UFO investigations, witness testimony, and the dissemination of information within the UFO community. The editorial stance appears to be one of active research, encouraging public participation, and valuing documented evidence and personal accounts. There is a clear emphasis on the importance of recording and sharing information, with a forward-looking perspective on the potential significance of current findings.
