From the very beginning of the flying saucer/UFO mystery, Joseph Allen Hynek played a huge role as an investigator. According to him in his 1972 book, The UFO Experience, in 1947 he was asked to be a scientific consultant for the Air Force’s investigation program (which was then called Project Sign) based at Wright-Patterson AFB in Dayton, Ohio. He explains he was “then director of Ohio State University’s McMillan Observatory and, as such, the closest professional astronomer at hand.” He remained a scientific consultant for what operated as Project Sign, Project Grudge, and then Project Blue Book as of 1952, up until its termination in 1969. He went on with his own investigations, formed the Center for UFO Studies in 1973, and continued as its director until his death in 1986. In his almost 40 years of involvement with the mystery, Hynek’s beliefs and public stance evolved quite a bit.

670. Chad Wanless & David Palachik
Martin Willis sits down with Chad Wanless who begins by discussing his life as an experiencer, then he and Professor David Brian Palachik to explore their groundbreaking discovery of five new UFO observables—adding fresh insight to the ongoing scientific investigation of UAP phenomena. Chad Wanless, MUFON Field Investigator and CCO of the Centre for the Scientific Study of Atmospheric Anomalies (CSSAA), shares findings from his research and his books, Hidden in Plain Sight: Evidence of Exotic UFO Propulsion and the forthcoming Missing Time Too, An Ordinary Man's Extraordinary Journey. Chad’s technical background in mechanical design and 3D modeling gives him a unique perspective on the analysis of anomalous aerial objects. Joining him is Professor David Brian Palachik, President & CEO of CSSAA and co-author of Hidden in Plain Sight. With over 40 years in electrical and electronic engineering—including work with IBM Canada and cutting-edge infrared imaging systems—Palachik brings deep technical and investigative experience to the conversation. He discusses the broader implications of their findings and how CSSAA is leading scientific research into atmospheric anomalies on a global scale. Don’t miss this thought-provoking interview on how new observables could reshape our understanding of UFO phenomena.SHOW NOTESBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/podcast-ufo--5922140/support.

AudioBlog: Another Problematic UFO Report Originating on Social Media
Amidst the reports of drone incursions over military bases and northern New Jersey, there was a story that made the news involving video footage reportedly taken by a co-pilot of an unidentified object in the sky above Manchester Airport in England, along with still shots of what was said to be the same object, seen to be a blue sphere, hovering over the tarmac. As is typical of UFO coverage in the news these days, when it’s not about what government officials think about the phenomenon, the origin of the story was a post on social media with no real names provided for the poster or the source. All that was left for those with an interest in the case was to conduct some rather imaginative analysis of the footage and argue back and forth over the possible alien origin of the object.

668. Bob Salas Wall Street Journal Rebuttal
🚨 In this powerful one-on-one interview, former U.S. Air Force Captain Robert Salas fires back at the recent Wall Street Journal article suggesting that Cold War-era UFO encounters were disinformation efforts to protect classified military programs. Salas, a key witness to the famous 1967 Malmstrom Air Force Base incident—where 10 nuclear missiles mysteriously went offline during a UFO encounter—calls the article’s claim of an “EMP test” factually wrong and deliberately misleading.SHOW NOTESBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/podcast-ufo--5922140/support.
