THE GREAT AWAKENING  

Increased UFO activity is being reported in Maine, New York, Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Washington, California, and Australia.  Cattle mutilations reported in Texas.  Thirty UFO near misses are reported from England. 

On June 21, 2001, there will be a full solar eclipse the same day as the Summer Solstice, Additionally, there is unusually high sunspot count and solar flares called coronal mass ejection's (CMEs).  Millions of tons of energy are exploding from the sun in solar flares.  

A new and ever brightening comet called "Linear C/2001 A2" is in our skies moving near the sun.  The Comet is flaring once again as it heads this way for a late-June close encounter with Earth with a visual magnitude of 3.3.  The comet is visible with the naked eye south of the equator now and moves into better viewing for those in the Northern Hemisphere later in June.  

The Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics announced that a study of brown dwarf stars suggests more planets may exist than predicted.  Astronomers analyzing brown dwarf stars in the Orion nebula with an infrared telescope have determined that many of the failed stars are ringed by protoplanetary disks of dust and gas just like true stars.  The finding suggests a high percentage of stars have planets or solar systems similar to our own.  Although, only fifty or so planets have been identified outside our solar system, millions or even billions of planets may exist.  

Most scientists believe the reason UFOs cannot be here is because of the great distance between star systems.  NASA scientist Paul Hill in his book "Unconventual Flying Objects" provides the mathematical formulas to show that the travel time between planets in various solar systems for the occupants is less than it took for our ancestors to reach America.  The equations have been checked by the Langley Research Center and interstellar mission profiles can take only weeks or a few months.  For example Paul Hill states, "It is possible for an interstellar trip to be very short .  The trip from our nearest neighbor, Alpha Centuri, a triple star system 4.3 light years away, made by accelerating at 140 g to av/c of 0.9999 is accomplished from a standing start to a standing finish in 6 weeks, 0.115 year."  (P. 272) 
    
Mars has flares of light and is a brilliant red in the night sky just above the southern horizon during the Earth - Mars alignment.  Although it only reaches 12 degrees above the horizon it cannot be missed because of its striking red color.  

Ancient writings frequently mention a great awakening, when there are similar signs of termoil in the heavens.  When I visited Chickén-Itzá, Mayan predictions indicated a great change shortly after the beginning of the new century.  The Bible and Sumerian, Tibetan texts all predict a great awakening and a return of extraterrestrials.  

MARS FLARES ERUPT.

Mitch Battros reports that the flare sightings suggest geomagnetic storms are alive and well on Mars.  He reports, in the latest issue of Sky & Telescope (pages 115 to 123), Thomas Dobbins and William Sheehan discussed rare observations of bright star-like flares from the Edom region of Mars.  They suggest the flares might be caused by specular reflections of sunlight off water-ice crystals in surface frosts or atmospheric clouds, when the sub-Sun and sub-Earth points were nearly coincident and near the planet's central meridian.  Based on their analysis, Dobbins and Sheehan predicted that flares like those last reported in 1958 might erupt in Edom Promontorium, near the Martian equator at longitude 345 degrees.  

Dobbins organized an expedition to the Florida Keys to view Mars.  On June 7th, beginning at 2:40 PM the team observed a series of brightenings on Mars.  Each lasted 3 to 5 seconds; sporadically over the next 90 minutes until blocked by clouds.  At times Edom appeared to pulse with a period of 10 to 15 seconds for a minute or two.  The flares were seen visually and were recorded on video at 1,400 power through a Meade 12-inch telescope.  The flares seemed to cut the dark linear feature Sinus Sabaeus nearly in two.

US AND RUSSIA MAY AGREE ON NEW ABM TREATY

MOSCOW -- Last year President Clinton and Russian leader Vladimir V. Putin agreed to establish an Early Warning Center in Moscow.  US and Russian military experts will exchange information within minutes on the launching of ballistic missiles or space vehicles detected by either nation.  Last weekend, President George Bush and President Putin strongly endorsed each other and a continuing friendship appears likely between the two countries.  Agreeing with the American assessment that so-called rogue states pose a nuclear threat, Vladimir V. Putin hinted that the two nations could collaborate on new ways to shoot down enemy missiles soon after they were launched, rather than in space.  The US plans to build a missile defense system that would require changes in the 1972 Antiballistic Missile Treaty.  Bush hopes to offer Russia inducements such as military aid, arms purchases, and joint anti-missile exercises to get a new treaty.  Russia wants the United States to choose a boos!
t !
phase defense that destroys enemy missiles shortly after launch rather than in space.  The US Air Force's 747 aircraft armed with laser weapons are likely to be able to accomplish this mission.  These lasers are not as effective against the Russian nuclear ICBM force, and make a more acceptable weapons system to Russia.  Sunday, President Putin told President Bush, "The US and Russia must work together to identify security threats and officials from both countries should sit down to 'try to find a way together to solve these problems.'"  (AP) June 17, 2001. 

Editor's Note: The so-called Antiballistic Missile Defense System was first proposed by President Reagan who stated, that his discussions with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev at Geneva, touched not only on "Star Wars," but the extraterrestrial.  Reagan said, "We're all God's children.  I couldn't help but say to him just think how easy his task and mine might be in these meetings that we held if suddenly there was a threat to this world from some other species from another planet outside in the universe."  Reagan went on to say that, "such an event would force himself and Gorbachev to forget all the little local differences that we have between our countries and they would find out that we really are all human beings here on this earth together."  Well, I don't suppose we can wait for some alien race to come down and threaten us, Reagan added.  But I think that between us we can bring about that realization."  (Speech Fallston High School, December 4, 1985)  It is possible t!
ha!
t a missile defense could also be used against UFOs.  If you make the assumption that UFOs are real and occupied by aliens.  You now realize what 400 government employees were trying to tell Congress at the Disclosure Project.  

MAINE FLYING STREET LIGHT

OXFORD - Ruth sent an email saying, "In the first week of October 2000, I was driving on a dirt road east of Route 26 and I was looking in the eastern sky.  At 9:00 PM, I was in a clearing that allowed me to see a heavily wooded hill.  I knew that beyond that hill was a small side road where there should not be lights.  I saw a white glow, reminiscent of a streetlight.  My first thought was, "Wow, they put a street light there on that road, but I stared in wonder as this streetlight was slowly rising!"  The light was not even a half-mile away.  It was completely silent, and did not flicker.  I stared as it rose maybe 200 feet in the air, climbing above the tree line, I panicked, and I headed for my truck still keeping an eye on it.  The object flew toward the Mechanic Falls and speeded off so fast that I knew I had just seen a UFO.  I have kept silent, and tried to see if others had seen things that night in my area.  Thanks to Ruth.

NEW YORK LIGHT SPOTTED AT DIFFERENT TIMES AND PLACES

STATEN ISLAND -- Ray Klopchin while on a picnic at the shore on Monday, June 11, 2001, saw a strange light in the afternoon sky.  At 12:21 PM, he happened to be watching planes make their approaches to the three metro airports.  He noticed a definite and stationary pinpoint of light way up in the southeast sky.  The object moved very slowly and was then obscured by clouds.  He alerted at least two other people who saw this light.  Looking around the sky, they noticed similar pinpoints of light in the distant sky, now due east of us.  They now had more witnesses this time that saw this singular and very distant pinpoint of light.  It moved very slowly and disappeared behind the clouds.  They saw the light again thirty minutes later, again in the southeast.  The witnesses claim they have never seen anything like this before.  It was not an approaching plane, nor was it a star.  It was very unusual.  Thanks to Ray Klopchin www.nymufon.org for this report.

VIRGINIA FLYING TRIANGLES

Robert Collins writes that in Filer's Files 23 and 24 you mention large Flying Triangles.  I thought you would be interested in an E-mail sent to me that states, "I was taken many years ago to Ft Eustis located in Newport News, Virginia where I saw two items.  One was in a corrugated Metal Hangar that was not really well lit, but the skylights let me see enough.  It was about 60-75' like your triangle item mentioned, it was roundish/blimpish in design and nothing was holding it up or it was not resting on anything below.  The second hangar was very well lit; people were in it wearing only white jumpsuits and round metal badges with a roundish disc that had a small droplet of mercury, if it blew you had to leave.  One was put on my shirt.  I was about 15' away from this triangular looking-cool as hell black shiny ceramic looking covered craft.  It too had nothing holding it up or resting on it.  The blimpish one, as told was recovered in upper NY near the Canadian/NY boarder.!
  !
The black one as I was told was a Cadillac model that brought an ambassador to visit with us and would be leaving after 19-year stay to acquaint us to them.  We were allowed to fly the Cadillac and marvel/back-engineer.  It had a headband and the "driver" was mechanical and became "one-with" the UFO."  Thanks to Robert Collins, rigoletto@sprintmailcom.

KENTUCKY IT WAS A BIG HUGE SAUCER AND CLOSE!  

LOUISVILLE -- On May 22, 2001, several witnesses reported seeing a huge craft with lights all over it!  The witnesses observed the craft at 11:17 PM, stating, "It was shaped like a saucer, my mother was in the car with me and she about had a heart attack."  The UFO had an orange/white/opaque tint to it.  The witnesses tried to follow but it was moving too fast!  Now I'm sure we're are not the only people here on earth!!!! 
LOUISVILLE - Thirteen minutes later a second group of witnesses saw an object like a flat diamond, orangish/white in color with a bit of green stripping along the sides.  The object was first observed from the top of Iroquois Hill by a 9 year old.  The child's parents then saw the craft.  The mother is a registered nurse and the father works as a severe weather spotter.  He is also a military aircraft hobbyist.  The youngest child who is 3 also saw the object.  They described the UFO as very bright and at first they thought it was a harvest moon.  There was no noise and the object flew very fast moving in a north direction.  It was first noticed over the Kenwood Hill area.  They lost site of the object around Floyd Knobs area. Thanks to Peter Davenport Director of National Reporting Center www.ufocenter.com

TENNESSEE DOUBLE SIGHTING

WEST PALM BEACH PLANETARIUM -- Susan Cerdan writes she has learned of a sighting and a possible new supporter or believer.  I got a call from a man who says he does not believe in UFOs, but on June 12, 2001, he saw two objects that might qualify as UFOs.  Apparently, the International Space Station was to make a pass over Middle Tennessee late in the evening - after 10:30 PM.  At 10:50 PM, a "light," that was considerably brighter than the space station, appeared about 45 degrees above the eastern horizon moving westward.  It was moving slowly and was visible for 3 or 4 minutes.  It caught his attention because it would be bright for 10 seconds and then dim for 5 seconds.  It was moving slow enough that he was able to observe it through his small telescope.  He says, "It looked like a very bright star and that it was definitely NOT an airplane.  To top it off, it reached a certain height and then made a 90-degree turn to the north where it dimmed once or twice more before fa!
di!
ng from view.  He and his son were discussing what it might have been when what appeared to be a meteor appeared high overhead in the west, traveling downward toward the eastern horizon.  It was visible for 5 to 7 seconds.  Of course, this was no "normal" meteor.  It was blinking off and on like someone flipping a light switch off and on.  I have had no reports of unusual sightings.
