Teaser Trailer Documents an Alien Abduction



Formerly titled Project Blue Book, Matty Beckerman's found footage alien invasion flick has been renamed Alien Abduction and is set for release from IFC Midnight on April 4th. Details and the first teaser trailer await, earthlings!
Written by Robert Lewis, the film stars Katherine Sigismund, Corey Eid, Riley Polanski, Jillian Clare, Jeff Bowser, and Peter Holden.
Synopsis
A terrifying sci-fi story inspired by dramatic found footage, Alien Abduction preys on our fear of the unknown as we follow an average American family who find themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time.
While driving to a campsite in the Brown Mountains of North Carolina, the Morris family's GPS malfunctions, and they are lead to a remote tunnel surrounded by abandoned vehicles. The father, Peter Morris, is abducted, leaving his traumatized wife and children to flee and seek refuge in a nearby cabin. There they are horrified to learn that strange lights in the nearby mountains have been linked to alien abduction and human sacrifice for centuries.
When their attempts to alert the authorities are intercepted by the deadly extraterrestrial threat, the surviving members of the family find themselves under siege. A brutal and bloody attack unfolds as we witness the horrors through the lens of the youngest child's video camera.

UFO TV: ALDEBARAN MYSTERY 2 - NAZI UFO SECRETS & SECRET SOCIETIES and FLYING SAUCERS

 
 
ALDEBARAN MYSTERY 2 - NAZI UFO SECRETS
 
Does The lurid tabloid myth of Nazi contact with space aliens and building flying saucers sound like the most outrageous science fiction? This same legend reconsidered from the radically altered view of Quantum Physics takes on dramatic plausibility! Was the German 'Vril Society' simply making practical application of universal, free-energy Quantum-Physics technology?" These questions and more are explored in this shocking documentary film that reveals the inside story about the Vril Society which became the inner circle of the Thule Society, who's focus was on establishing communications with a group of Extraterrestrials, that began colonizing the planet Earth over a half billion years ago from a dieing star system know as The Aldebaran Star System.




SECRET SOCIETIES and FLYING SAUCERS

This film explores the connection between Ancient Secret Societies and Extraterrestrial Influences Engaging the Planet earth. Does "the great work of the ages" pursued by contemporary secret societies involve a covert plan to fully restore an ancient lost culture that flourished on this planet long before recorded history? Could it be that there is nothing "New" at all about the 'new world order', and that it is in fact, an occult scheme to resurrect an ancient totalitarian order designed to covertly serve extra-terrestrials?

Pilot Testimonials: The Chiles-Whitted Encounter


By Taylor Schlacter
 
Every time a new UFO case is covered on Mysterious Universe, whether it sounds convincing or not, Ben and Aaron do an excellent job of reiterating a point which I believe cannot be stressed enough when researching UFO cases: no matter how amazing or convincing a UFO encounter may appear to be, its overall quality and credibility will always be tested by the evidence provided and the witnesses involved.
The poorer the quality of the witness(es) and evidence, the less credible the encounter will be (even if it actually happened). While this may seem so obvious and an accepted factor when exploring the multitude of UFO cases out there, my reason for bringing it up is always the same: the continued effort to remove the social stigma associated with the serious study and public acceptance of UFO’s is consistently impeded by such incredible cases. As such, I remain a stern advocate for bringing increased attention to those high-caliber cases which, based on their evidence and witnesses, are as close to irrefutable as possible, and I firmly believe they almost always involve testimony from commercial and military pilots.
Surprisingly (at least to me), there are many such high-caliber pilot cases with testimony, especially from the mid-twentieth century. These cases have very compelling evidence and testimony, right up there with the more well-known pilot cases like Captain Terauchi’s encounter in Alaska. The one featured in this article is the Chiles-Witted case that happened on July 24th, 1948 in Montgomery, Alabama.

 An artist’s rendition of the Chiles-Whitted encounter.

Pilots Clarence S. Chiles and John B. Whitted took off from Houston, Texas in an Eastern Airlines DC-3 around 8:00 PM with twenty passengers on board. Both pilots had a wealth of flying experience from wartime military flying duty to commercial flight experience for Eastern Airlines (it was noted that at the time of the encounter, Chiles had at least 8500 recorded hours in the air). At around 2:45 AM, roughly twenty miles outside of Montgomery, Alabama and at an altitude of about 5000 feet, both pilots witnessed an object ahead of them that they first believed was a jet. It was heading toward them rapidly at about the same altitude and passed by their starboard wing at a distance of at least 1,000 feet. Although the pilots gave differing distances at which the object passed by their DC-3 (one said 1000 feet while the other said it was a few times that), both agreed that whatever passed by them was most certainly some sort of aircraft. They described the latter as being cylindrical (cigar, or rocket-shaped), having no empennage or wings and featured two rows of brightly lit windows or some other kind of portals that one pilot described as looking “like burning magnesium”. The pilots also described that the supposed nose of the aircraft was pointed and along the underside of the craft, from the nose to the aft, there emitted a bluish glow. Chiles turned the DC-3 sharply to the left right before the craft passed them and as it did, their aircraft allegedly experienced a bit of turbulence as though the craft produced some sort of wake. As Chiles was turning their DC-3, Whitted was the only one still able to observe the craft as it passed on their right side. He looked behind them in time to see the mysterious craft make a sharp ascent and then disappear.

Chiles’ sketch of the craft he observed

The information of this article from which I am citing comes from Dr. James E. McDonald, a well-known proponent for the serious study of UFO’s in science. He interviewed both pilots in 1968 and made it a point to clarify that by Whitted’s report of the aircraft disappearing after its ascent, he did not mean that he lost sight of it in the clouds as it ascended, but rather that as he observed it making its ascent, it simply vanished into thin air (a characteristic not uncommon to some UFO sightings). Only one of the twenty passengers on board witnessed the event, and he only remarked that he saw a “strange, eerie streak of light, very intense” but provided no further detail as it happened very quickly and his eyes had not yet adjusted to the darkness.

An article from the Atlantic Journal reporting on the pilots’ accounts

Their encounter drew considerable attention, both public and military, and sparked much debate about the validity of their claims. The morning after their experience, Chiles and Whitted reported their observations to local reporters as well as the United States Air Force’s Air Technical Intelligence Center (ATIC), and even those military officials involved in Project SIGN. While the news reported the pilots’ encounter in local newspapers, the ATIC prepared an “Estimate of the Situation” (a report written by a member of the military intelligence community on matters of high significance) which despite being classified as top secret, allegedly reported the UFO in the Chiles-Whitted case as being interplanetary (again, that is what is alleged). Nonetheless, the very fact that this encounter was taken so seriously by military intelligence leads one to believe that this case was in fact a very significant one that received considerable attention from the Air Force.
The pilots’ testimony also drew criticism, and there were several attempts that tried to debunk the sighting (i.e. the pilots observed a mirage or a meteor), however the proposed explanations could not account for many of the characteristics of the encounter (i.e. the rows of lights, the abrupt, allegedly ninety degree ascension, etc). Furthermore, there was a subsequent, similar sighting shortly (it has been documented by different sources as minutes or a couple of hours) after Chiles and Whitted’s encounter. The follow-up sighting occurred at the Robins Air Force Base in Georgia, where ground personnel on duty at the time reported seeing a rocket-like object pass overhead at a very high speed. The Robins AFB’s proximity to the original encounter as well as the similar description of the sighting by the ground personnel serves to reinforce the pilots’ testimony.
While I have included most of the key information on this case, there is still so much more that has been left out and will further solidify the significance of Chiles’ and Whitted’s encounter. As such, I highly encourage any interested reader to look deeper into this case and get a better idea of just how dramatic and shocking this case was, especially since it took place in 1948.

Should the MOD Take UFOS More Seriously?



I don't believe in visitors from Mars. Perhaps aliens exist somewhere in the vastness off space, but I don't believe they are visiting this planet. If that were so, we would surely have seen better evidence of their presence by now.
But something strange is haunting our skies, and it is curious that the Ministry of Defence appears to think otherwise. The failure of our MPs to acknowledge as much is at best a typical example of the human evasion; at worst, it a disingenuous and recklessness oversight deserving of urgent redress.
Last week it was confirmed that the pilot of a Thomas Cook aircraft flying to Manchester International Airport on 19 July 2013, experienced a near miss with an unknown object. The captain ducked as a cigar shaped bright, silver and apparently metallic craft came within feet of his aircraft. It wasn't a balloon and it wasn't tracked on radar. The official investigation found that 'it was not possible to trace the object or determine the likely cause of the sighting.
One might be tempted to dismiss the incident as a one off, were it not for the fact that this has happened before. In 1995, the Civil Aviation Authority conducted an intense investigation when the captain of a passenger aircraft coming into land at Manchester Airport nearly collided with a dark, wedge shaped object that was so close that the first officer instinctively ducked. The case remains unexplained to this day, along with many others.
What on earth is going on?
When it comes to UFOs, the MOD would have us think that it has been entirely transparent with the public on the subject. That the UFO problem isn't a problem at all and that official interest is at a minimum, which is why it closed its official reporting desk in December 2009 and has declassified its UFO-related files. The department has found no evidence of a UFO threat to the UK and sees no benefit of any investigation into the subject, believing it would divert resources from tasks "more relevant to defence."
But the paradox here is obvious. How can we know that flying craft capable of fantastic manoeuvres and evading radar represent no defence significance, unless no attempt is made to investigate them in the first place? Lights in the sky are one thing, near misses quite another, and as much as the MOD is happy to publicise the dubious (and often humorous) reports from members of the public, they aren't nearly as forthcoming as to remind us that the National Air Traffic Control Services detect around one unidentified flying object every month.
The release of previously classified documents on the subject demonstrates that UFOs have attracted the attention of those at the top of government. 'What does all this stuff about flying saucers amount to,' asked Winston Churchill in 1952. 'What is the truth?'
Then, at the height of the Cold War, defence officials were soberly concerned about UFOs, and whilst the public was encouraged to think the subject was nonsense, official discreet enquiries were being made.
Are such enquiries ongoing now?
I am not a conspiracy theorist. I do not believe that officials secretly know what was glimpsed by the captain of the Thomas Cook Flight. Nor do I think that the military or BAE Systems would be so foolish as to test one of its prop type stealth aircraft in one of the busiest air corridors in the UK.
But if unknown objects possessing impressive manoeuvrability are flying in the UK airspace without detection and within striking distance of passenger jets, then the official line of 'no defence significance' is puzzling at best. Either the MOD is taking a close and secret interest in the phenomenon, or it is not. To the passengers on the jet that escaped its near miss, both possibilities must be equally concerning.
It is suave effrontery on the part of the MOD to pretend that near misses involving UFOs do not matter. Perhaps their lack of interest is a convenient evasion for the fact that they cannot explain these events - but that doesn't mean the matter should be allowed to rest, not when the safety of passenger aircraft is at risk.
The Parliamentary Defence Select Committee has never investigated the UFO problem, or the MOD's policy on the subject.
Perhaps now it should do so.

Ufo close to aircraft captured on film over U.S.

 
Published on 6 Feb 2014 By looknowtv
 
Ufo filmed from Airplane window, February 2014. The video was captured on a flight across the US in February 2014. The original video was much longer. During the video before the plane begins to go into a leaning position, you can clearly see a dark triangular object (UFO) off distance underneath the planes right wing. The UFO moves upward past the planes right wing, as the plane changes it's flight position. As always, you decide.

Mac: No link was included to the original video.
