The Pentagon's UFO Program

  UFOs, Aliens do they exist? If they do are they visiting us? If they are what do they want? These are some of the questions that both armchair investigators and the top levels of the government and military have been racking their brains to answer for decades.  On the 25th June 2021 the pentagon released a preliminary analysis on 144 Unidentified Aireal Phenomena (UAP). Of these 144 cases studied it was quite shocking that 143 still remain unexplained and the 1 that was closed was said to be a deflating balloon. The report can be found here . This beggs the question what was going on with these other sightings and who was investigating them. Something that the pentagon was not very forthcoming with. However,  nearly a year after the initial release a man named Travis Taylor who some of you may have heard of came forward as the chief scientist responsible for the report on behalf of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). Although it is true that Mr Taylor did have

Enfield, Illinois the 25th of April 1973, a seemingly ordinary day would end up as one of the strangest and bizarre cryptid sightings of recent decades. It all started about 10pm in the evening when Henry McDaniel was disturbed from his sofa after a hard day at work by a scratching sound coming from his front door. Thinking it might be a bear Henry grabbed his gun and a torch and went out to confront the creature. It was a windy night and between two shrubs Henry saw something that confused and shocked him. What he saw he later described as having three legs, two short arms a short body and large pink eyes, grey coloured skin and stood appropriately 4 - 5 feet tall. Henry wasted no time in taking aim and firing 4 shots at it one shot hitting the creature. Upon being shot the creature let out a loud hiss and disappeared over a railway embankment cov

So read on and find out what this phenomena is all about.  Street Light Interference (also know as Street Lamp Interference and High Voltage Syndrome) is an unexplained phenomena where certain individuals claim that they can effect Street lighting in their local area above what would be expected by chance.

Tales of the Black Smoke Rings

  Black smoke rings floating in the sky have been seen for many years by many people all over the world, often discounted as coming from a bonfire or a battle re-enactment but can all these sightings really be explained so dismissively? Read on to find out. They have been reported numerous times from the US to Russia, while some believe them to be easily explained as smoke rings caused by fires of burning rubber,  or other noxious but very much terrestrial substances, that through planning of coincidence cause a floating smoke ring. Some easily dismiss them as being caused by cannon fire from a local reenactment. There are some sceptics who have put down the sightings to various weather phenomena that my not be fully understood but enough is known for them to confidentially dismiss every sighting. Others believe a far more nefarious plot involving that modern and seemingly never dying conspiracy theory of chemtrails and government weather control experiments (or mind control as some be
