I remember Battlestar Galactica. That was one of the sci-fi shows that came out right after Star Wars made everybody interested in space and aliens. It wasn't on for very long but it was interesting. It was kind of the opposite of Star Trek...instead of going out searching for new planets they were trying to get back to the Earth that they left a long time ago. My mom said she used to watch that program too when it was new. I saw some of the episodes on the Sci Fi Channel, they had a marathon of it on for like a week. I recorded all of them and watched them. It was pretty interesting... The reason why they were showing the older episodes of Battlestar Gallactca is because they made a remake of the series. I must admit, it was not NEARLY as good as the original...

Remakes never are. Just because something was successful in the past that doesn't mean it automatically will be again. Things just can't be duplicated that easily. It was a unique story created in a unique time and the original actors brought it to life in their own unique way. A remake made several decades later with different people just comes out being a cheap imitation.

I don't know what that crazy thing was. It was moving around all over the place. It didn't look like a fake video.

These are not UFO's but IFO's. And here is a close up of the same object, taken from a secret underground base in Nevada... ready for back engineering. And here is a photo of one that has landed. Flood the Internet with more youtube videos like these, and we will have to shut down and come back as a 'share your favorite cooking recipe' website too. This is all First grade reader stuff.

I thought it was moving kind of like a balloon but I've never seen a giant hot dog balloon before. What are they used for? People just inflate them and let them go?

What would the purpose of it be..?? There are many of these seen and video taped. Are they all hoaxes? It is a stupid hoax it they are.

Three cheers for UruguayTuesday, February 7, 2012 at 12:34 by Billy Cox Larger only than tiny Suriname in South America, Uruguay’s profile barely registers on the world stage. It draws headlines every now and then, like when it provides free laptop computers to every kid in primary school, or when it becomes the first Latin American nation to sanction gay civil unions, or when its legislature moves to legalize marijuana. But most of the time, Uruguay’s 98 percent literacy rate and its recession-proof 9 percent economic growth-rate sail under the radar, which may actually be a good thing. This week, thanks to journo A.J. Grevaerd of Brazilian UFO Magazine, we get a glimpse into Uruguay’s quietly remarkable UFO study program, which has been up and running since 1979. Try to imagine, for instance, a scenario like this playing out in the U.S.: A bright glowing UFO materializes over a dam and lingers over power lines. A major city simultaneously goes dark. Military interceptors get scrambled to check it out. Slack-jawed ground observers and pilots can only watch as the UFO changes colors from yellow to orange to red during accleration before vanishing entirely. This actually happened, in 1986. Montevideo, home to more than half of Uruguay’s 3.3 million residents, briefly lost power. Utility technicians reported its transformers had overheated during the UFO sighting. The culprit was never identified, but authorities never had a problem talking about it on the record. Recounting this and other events to Grevaerd is Col. Ariel Sanchez, who chairs the Uruguayan Air Force’s Commission for the Reception and Investigation of UFO Reports, or Cridovni. Sanchez said Cridovni conducts “a police style investigation” into the most compelling cases. “Among other resources, we have psychologists in order to make a profile of witnesses,” he added. “We also have astronomers, engineers, pilots, flight controllers, meteorologists, etc.” Cridovni is obviously discerning. Since its inception, Sanchez says 2,200 sightings have been brought to its attention, with maybe half worth investigating. Only 40 remain true mysteries. But some of those, like the Lufthansa incident, are doozies. In 2007, a German airliner crossed into Uruguayan air space as it left Buenos Aires and headed east for Europe. The Lufthansa crew as well as the pilot of a nearby Uruguayan plane spotted a low-flying object that suddenly shot up between both aircraft and came within several hair-raising meters of colliding with the German plane. Thinking they might’ve been shot at by a missile, the Germans reported the near miss to flight controllers in Brazil, Uruguay contacted the Argentine military, and the paperwork on what became an international incident wound up on the desk of president Tabaré Vázquez. “We don’t know what they did with the information,” said Sanchez, who was unable to identify the source of the incident. “However, the case went public. It was in every media in Uruguay or Argentina. There was a great commotion.” Grevaerd’s interview with Sanchez is worth a read. And in a followup with De Void, he added, “I believe that Uruguay, as well as Argentina, Chile, Peru, Ecuador and – of course – Brazil all have declassified only the smallest part of their files. The tip of a huge iceberg.” As Sanchez made clear, a number of these nations collaborate on UFO data-sharing, but it looks like their networking is destined to be a regional thing. Sanchez said Cridovni has never been approached by air force counterparts in the U.S., Russia, France, or anywhere outside South America. “I remember many years ago when we had to request NASA to assist with UFO pictures made by a Uruguayan eyewitness,” Sanchez recalled. “However, they never sent us an answer.” What’s new? The adult conversation on The Great Taboo is happening south of the border, without us. devoid.blogs.heraldtribune.com/12766/three-cheers-for-uruguay/

Thanks Paul.. I wonder just how much they did release. One never knows as they don't know what the government had in the first place.
This is very interesting. Nasa never even replied back.. Any thing that gets sent here is classified from day one. Just like the alien who was supposedly ship here the three school girls witnessed. The one with the lizard tongue. ha .

This time, Billy talks about Ecuador:De Void
Rewriting the rules in EcuadorFriday, February 10, 2012 at 1:07 by Billy Cox As if De Void needed more evidence of being a fraud in this “business,” I didn’t even know who Jaime Rodriguez was until tuning into a UFOTV documentary called “UFOs in South America: Disclosure Has Begun.” Now I gotta meet this guy. UFO glasnost has been sweeping South America for years now, and the piece skims some of those treetops. But the revelation here, and its primary focus, is the work of one man — Ecuadoran journo Rodriguez — who’s been pressing his government for UFO disclosure since 1983. Working for Ecuavisa television, Rodriguez managed in 2005 to wring a major concession from Ecuador’s mercurial now-ex president Lucio Gutierrez, a former army colonel who staged a brief coup d’etat in Quito in 2000. Rodriguez persuaded Guitierrez to actually live up to a campaign promise about UFO transparency (whoa Nellie!), and the result was the Committee for the Investigation of the UFO Phenomenon (CEIFO). Staffed with six civilians, including Rodriguez, CEIFO was charged with collecting enough “convincing” data to write a cogent appeal for the government to end its UFO information bottleneck. But promised funding never materialized. So Rodriguez and crew managed to scrape together $12k to pursue their documentary research over the next two years. The real trick here was getting military eyewitnesses, fearful of destroying their careers, to talk about what they’d seen. The story took a momentum swing in 2007, after Rafael Correa was elected to the presidency. Correa directed Ecuador’s Ministry of Defense to allow military personnel to openly discuss their UFO encounters. Perhaps that was a direct response to the documentary’s most curious twist — an allegation that “economic and career incentives” extended by the U.S. to the Ecuadoran military was at least partially contingent upon keeping UFO data “concealed.” Unfortunately, the hour-long feature offers no specific evidence of this charge. President Correa is the wild card in this mix. Buds with the Castro brothers, calling it an insult to Satan when Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez denounced George Bush as “the devil” in the United Nations, Correa was anti-gringo from the get-go. But the documentary claims the spit hit the fan in ‘08, when Correa discovered his military “secret services” had been financed by the CIA. He expelled Americans he accused of being CIA operatives, then ordered the administrative restructuring of his country’s national security network. Then Correa did something really cool: He invited Rodriguez into a meeting with Ecuador’s top military brass, and directed them to give Rodriguez whatever resources he needed to access UFO material. Ecuador’s men, and presumably women, in uniform have been talking on the record ever since. Here’s a glimpse. These guys appear to be active duty: Can you imagine USAF pilots talking this candidly about what they saw in the skies above Phoenix or Stephenville? Although this feature doesn’t nudge us any closer to solving the mystery, it serves up intriguing excerpts from some 400 mostly-civilian videos routinely confiscated and hoarded for decades by the government. One was provided by a former Ecuadoran vice president, whose outdoor birthday party was abruptly interrupted by a UFO as friends and family boogied below. But forget the data. The biggest shift is cultural. The ridicule factor, says Rodriguez, appears to be collapsing: “We’ve noticed there’s a greater sense of maturity among us now. The population has a more mature attitude toward the UFO phenomenon. This stimulates us to move our work into the analytical part of the subject, which is what we really need to focus on now.” Don’t hold your breath waiting for Uncle Sam to jump aboard the Love Train. Last April, following the WikiLeaks debacle, Ecuador expelled the U.S. ambassador for cabling home that Correa appointed a police commissioner he knew was corrupt. In September, when Correa was in New York for a UN meeting, the mayor of Union City, N.J., canceled an event Correa was scheduled to attend due to Ecuador’s deepening economic ties with Iran and Cuba. So it goes. But politics are transient. Keep your eye on the real ball here. When it comes to UFOs, Ecuador and a growing number of its neighbors are snubbing their noses at our rules. devoid.blogs.heraldtribune.com/12775/rewriting-the-rules-in-ecuador/

I have been waiting for years for them to do something. If anyone in the world has alien stories it would be down there. .. I keep a close watch for news out of Brazil for years. Have read a lot of strange stories.
Especially a town that was terrorized to death. Many was suppose to of died in the weeks that followed the main event, it went on seems to me for months. The town was on the Atlantic Coast and the ufos came in from the ocean, shined beams down on people as they tried to escape running down the beach and back into the village. They died from radiation burns of some kind. Now I do not remember what town. There was a writer who put out a book on the whole incident. I posted the story over on mufonia but of course they do not exist now. This magazine writer went there for months to investigate the events. Many of the people were too scared to talk, but some of the ones that did .. it was simply horrible to read.
Swamprat, Have you ever heard a case like this? Well it leaked out by this reporter.

CEFAA presses its challengeFriday, March 2, 2012 at 5:14 by Billy Cox Considering how 21st century media is more into images than ideas, Open Minds magazine editor Antonio Huneeus figured last weekend’s International UFO Congress offered an irresistible hook — footage. And not the usual fabricated crud and dreck that dominates YouTube. A fairly recent UFO event was reportedly documented from seven different video angles. Its authenticity was vetted by the Committee for the Study of Anomalous Aerial Phenomena (CEFAA), Chile’s multi-disciplinary, government-run UFO investigations team. If CEFAA's calculations are accurate, a UFO filmed over Santiago in 2010 traveled at speeds that made Chilean F-16s look like Galapagos tortoises. The incident occurred during military ceremonies in Santiago on Nov. 4, 2010. Look for the full accounting soon on the Open Minds website. Briefly, the UFO was zipping along so quickly it wasn’t observed in real time. The thing was detected after the fact, via slo-mo replay. Its velocity was calculated against the known speeds of F-16s during the flyover. After all other suspects — balloons, birds, etc. — were eliminated, CEFAA found itself mystified by a metallic disc traveling at lethal, bone-sloshing velocities. “This was a world exclusive that we brought to the UFO Congress,” says Huneeus of the event at Fountain Hills, Ariz. Unveiling the footage was CEFAA’s director, former Chilean air force general Ricardo Bermudez, who reviewed three of the seven videos. But as we know, the mainstream media missed the show altogether. Curiously, the 11/4/10 incident occurred just two months after yet another sublime UFO intrusion over Santiago, a bicentennial festivities that also involved huge crowds and military planes. As before, the 9/17/10 bogey wasn’t observed in real time; the Chilean Air Force photographer who grabbed the 12-frame, 11-second sequence discovered the curiosity after reviewing the film once ceremonies ended. This object was no less exotic than the one Bermudez attempted to introduce to America last weekend. Working with CEFAA data, the non-profit National Aviation Reporting Center on Anomalous Phenomena decided to call it — for lack of a better explanation — a “luminous contained plasma” due to its shape-shifting properties. But the most significant pattern here is the fearless transparency of CEFAA, which operates under the Chilean equivalent of the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration. Bermudez’s power-point presentation also included recently declassified audio recordings — with English translations — of UFO-related chatter between Chilean pilots and control-tower operators, some of it dating back to the 1970s, some including near-collision scenarios. Bermudez reiterated how the U.S. embassy in Chile ignored his request to liaison with an American government counterpart on this incipient aviation safety issue. “His own personal idea is that this should be brought to the United Nations,” Huneeus added. With plenty of data to work with, Chile appears to have created a framework for how science and government can partner up. Next question: Is there any reason to believe the UN would find any more spine than Uncle Sam to give CEFAA a fair hearing? devoid.blogs.heraldtribune.com/12829/cefaa-presses-its-challenge/
