Retired Air Force Lt. Col. Made Bold UFO Claim In His Final Interview
By Ed Mazza
Lt. Col. Robert Friend was in charge of Project Blue Book, the military's famous UFO study.
A retired Air Force official in charge of one of its most famous UFO research efforts said before his death last year that the effort may have been scuttled not because it was fruitless, but just the opposite.
In a clip from the new documentary “The Phenomenon,” Lt. Col. Robert Friend pointed to the sudden closure of Project Blue Book in 1969.
“Which would suggest what?” he asked before answering his own question: “That they knew what it was.”
James Fox, the film’s director added: “Or didn’t know what it was.”
But Friend, who led Project Blue Book from 1958-1963, persisted.
“Also the other way,” Friend replied with a telling grin. “That they did know what it was.”
Officially, the project was shuttered despite some 700 open cases because it “no longer can be justified either on the ground of national security or in the interest of science.”
But Friend, who died last year at the age of 99, suggested in his last interview that the shutdown could have been for another reason:
Friend, who was one of the Tuskegee Airmen during WWII and the only Black leader of Project Blue Book, heading it during the civil rights movement, was originally skeptical of claims that aliens had ever made the long trip to Earth.
“Do I believe that we have been visited? No, I don’t believe that,” he told HuffPost in 2012. “And the reason I don’t believe it is because I can’t conceive of any of the ways in which we could overcome some of these things: How much food would you have to take with you on a trip for 22 years through space? How much fuel would you need? How much oxygen or other things to sustain life do you have to have?”
However, Friend also called for more study and said he believes there could be life elsewhere.
“I think that anytime there’s a possibility of scientific pay dirt from studying these phenomena, that yes, it would be much better if the government or some other agency was to take on these things and to pursue the scientific aspects of it,” he said.
More recent revelations indicate that the U.S. government’s interest in UFOs didn’t end with Project Blue Book but have continued in other forms, much of which is detailed in “The Phenomenon.”
Former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said in the film that the federal government has been covering up UFOs and that most of the evidence “hasn’t seen the light of day.”
“The Phenomenon” is currently available via VOD.
Lawrence Frank ‘Larry’ Chesto, 84, investigator with Mutual UFO Network
By WY Daily
Lawrence Frank “Larry” Chesto, 84, passed away in his sleep Monday, Oct. 19, 2020, at York Convalescent Center.
Mr. Chesto, or, “Larry,” as he preferred to be called, was a decorated veteran who served in the Vietnam War with 20 years of service in the U.S. Air Force.
After military retirement, he went on to a second decades-long career as the director of Telecommunications Systems, Industry Activities, at Aeronautical Radio Inc. (ARINC) in Annapolis, Maryland. To honor his work, his name is inscribed on the National Air and Space Museum’s Wall of Honor.
Larry was born Aug. 8, 1936, in Danbury, Connecticut.

He was a devout Catholic, and member of the Knights of Columbus. He most recently attended St. Olaf’s Church, Williamsburg.
Larry was very proud of his Italian heritage and studied his genealogy extensively. He contributed a story about his grandmother, Francesca Margotta Cestone, for author Mario Toglia’s books about connections from Calitri, Italy. Larry had always had a passion for exploration and outer space. His early retirement was spent as an investigator for the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), a U.S.-based non-profit organization composed of civilian volunteers who study reported UFO sightings. His hobbies also included fixing and rewiring practically everything, as well as travelling.
Larry was preceded in death by three wives, all whom succumbed to cancer. Carol Chesto (nee Ward), mother of surviving daughters, Dorney Chesto Ruck and Moira Parham; Linda Chesto (nee Smith), mother of surviving daughter, Shawna Chesto; Marcy Chesto (previously Fentress), mother of surviving stepsons, James Fentress and Martin Fentress. He is also survived by four grandchildren, Asher, Caleb, and Max Ruck and Olivia LeDoux; and two brothers, Anthony Chesto and Edmund Chesto. He will be remembered as a loving husband, father, brother, friend and will be greatly missed.
The family requests that in lieu of flowers, donations be sent to support the American Cancer Society or the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America should anyone choose. There will be a memorial service held at a time and date to be determined. His ashes will be interred in Arlington National Cemetery.

Tucker Carlson Says There Is ‘Now An Enormous Amount Of Evidence’ That UFOs Are Real
By Tyler Mcdonald
Fox News host Tucker Carlson used a recent edition of his program to again touch on the purported evidence that supposedly proves the existence of UFOs, The Wrap reported.
“We used to be defensive on this topic, but there’s no reason to be. There is now an enormous amount of evidence, including physical evidence, that UFOs — whatever they are — are real. Why don’t we know a lot more about this? Because the government has hidden that information from us, outrageously,” he said.
The host pointed to a new documentary called The Phenomenon and played a clip from the film in which former Democratic Sen. Harry Reid claimed that the government is hiding physical evidence of the existence of UFOs.
“It’s outrageous,” Carlson said after the video.
The political commentator highlighted Reid’s claim that UFOs have repeatedly interfered with the United States’ nuclear weapons capabilities before jumping into another clip that outlined purported evidence of UFO origins. In particular, the video spotlighted metal debris collected by Dr. Jacque Vallee that allegedly come from UFO cases that date back as far as 1974. According to Vallee, the metal is unlike any known to man — “not natural” to Earth materials — and was “manufactured” by someone or something.
Later in the show, Carlson spoke with James Fox, the documentary’s director, as well as former Defense Department official Christopher Mellon, who previously praised proposed U.S. Navy rules intended to make UFO sightings easier to report. Notably, Fox delved deeper into Reid’s claim that UFOs were interfering with nuclear weapons capabilities and, in some cases, turning off missiles altogether.
“He went as far as even saying that if the president had called upon, to launch the missiles on several occasions, they couldn’t have done it. The missiles were deactivated.”
Mellon said that Vallee is one of the “foremost” private researchers examining the alleged UFO materials, which are reportedly being sent to multiple labs for analysis and peer review.
“But the gist of it is that those materials were engineered at an atomic level,” Mellon said, noting that humans do not yet have the capability for this kind of engineering.
Carlson has made multiple pivots to UFOs throughout the run of his show and has also touched on the topic on other networks. As The Inquisitr reported, the pundit appeared on an episode of the History Channel program Ancient Aliens and said that a source within the U.S. government claimed that it possesses physical evidence that alien aircraft have either landed or crash-landed on Earth.

The coin is one ounce of pure silver and sells for $129.50. According to the Royal Canadian Mint, 90 per cent of the 5,000 coins minted have already been sold.
Pentagon UFO unit to publicly release some findings
By Donna Miller
The Pentagon group tasked with finding out unidentified flying objects plans to publicly release data on its findings.
The unit, now often known as Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon Activity Power, will report no less than some of its work to the Senate Intelligence Committee each six months — with some of the group’s previous officers hinting of attainable otherworldly artifacts, the New York Instances reported.
Eric Davis, one of many former officers from the Pentagon UFO program, mentioned whereas he labored there, the group discovered objects he believed “we couldn’t make … ourselves,” he instructed the Instances.
Davis additionally mentioned he gave a categorised briefing to a Protection Division company this March throughout which he elaborated on “off-world automobiles not made on this Earth.”
It isn’t instantly clear what will likely be detailed within the drive’s reviews to the Senate, although the objective is to decide whether or not different nations have made developments in aviation engineering past the US’s data.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), appearing chairman of the Senate Choose Committee on Intelligence, instructed a Miami CBS affiliate earlier this month that he wished extra readability from the duty drive as a matter of nationwide safety.
“We’ve got issues flying over our army bases and locations the place we’re conducting army workouts and we don’t know what it’s — and it isn’t ours,” Rubio mentioned.
“Frankly, that if it’s one thing from outdoors this planet — that may really be higher than the truth that we’ve seen some technological leap on behalf of the Chinese or the Russians or some different adversary that enables them to conduct this exercise.”
Rubio’s committee required the publicizing of findings as a part of a committee report on intelligence company budgets for 2021.
The committee mandates the duty drive “standardize assortment and reporting on unidentified aerial phenomenon, any hyperlinks they’ve to adversarial overseas governments, and the risk they pose to U.S. army property and installations. ”
“Perhaps there’s a utterly, form of, boring clarification for it,” Rubio added. “However we’d like to discover out.”
The UFO program started in 2007 below the Protection Intelligence Company and has since morphed and been moved below the operation of the Workplace of Naval Intelligence, the Instances reported.
Luis Elizondo, this system’s earlier director who resigned in 2017, instructed the paper he was satisfied the group has studied objects of unknown origin.
He praised the concept of delivering reviews to the committee as a manner to pull again the curtain on some of that work.
“It now not has to conceal within the shadows,” Elizondo reportedly mentioned. “It should have a brand new transparency.”
