The UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) has begun releasing its voluminous files regarding unidentified flying objects, aerial phenomena, possible alien visitations etc. The documents will all become available to the public via the National Archives over the next three years.
UFOs of various kinds have been sighted and reported to the MoD and its predecessors for at least a hundred years. In general, the number and nature of sightings is much more affected by things such as movie releases or war scares than by any other apparent factor, all the way back to the “Phantom airships” widely reported in the UK before and during World War One – when panic about German zeppelins was at its height.
Many of the MoD’s UFO files – including, probably, most of the good stuff – have already been revealed under Freedom of Information Act requests. In particular, the splendid conspiracy fodder surrounding the Rendlesham Forest incident of 1980 (“Britain’s Roswell”) has long been available, full of mysterious lights, strange marks left in the ground and traces of radiation. Even better, the cameras recording the British air-defence radar picture were switched off at the time, indicating an almost certain government conspiracy.
Anyway, the previously unseen bumf is all coming out from the National Archives here. The files will be free for a month after each one is released, after which there will be a fee for access, so enthusiasts should keep checking back and downloading the stuff as it comes out. (Be warned though, the MoD says upfront that it has never found any solid evidence of aliens, secret American hypersonic stealth spyplanes or anything else good.)
After three years, if you keep it up, you’ll be the proud owner of a complete uk.gov UFO archive.
Or, depending on your viewpoint,
you’ll be the owner of the biggest and most comprehensive cover-up ever compiled .Yes cover it all up, we must be stupid, and believe they are weather balloons, mirages, and mass hillucinations :roll: .
I would love to see the Government tackle http://www.disclosureproject.org/ and Dr. Steven Greers evidence.If the Governments of the world can continue to deny and cover up, what hope is there ever anyone coming forward, the only, and last hope I think is Dr Greer

I can only presume you are joking
I am surprised, folk actually believe in something that has no actual proof of existence besides some theories. They look at a few pictures as see that as conclusive proof that aliens from the planet Zong are flying around in spaceships. Don’t get too close, they might zap you with their galactic death rays :roll:

No, but I do find the whole concept laughable if that’s the same thing.
So the hundreds of Military, CIA, Secret service, etc etc, who have gone on record and not only shown documents to back up there claims, but been involved in black projects actually back engineering technology from downed craft, must all be nutcases and liars in your opinion?

No, I didn’t say that. My point was about those who just take it at face value on the basis of one or two photographs. But to answer your question, no I don’t think they’re liars – I think they’re doing their bit to keep the fantasists happy & the theories alive.
:lol:
I myself don’t believe in U.F.Os, but I am of a mind to believe in aliens simply through mathimatical statistics, I am pretty sure that through the use of mathematical probability some clever use of the chaos theory and with just a dash of phase space, all with the word quantum liberally thrown in, one could come to the conclusion that because of the vastness of space or more specifically the number of solar systems it would seem unlikely that life could only develop on one planet in the entire cosmos… but that’s just my opinion

That reminds me of a thread on gen gossip
You mean the ‘I saw a UFO & I know I’m not mad cos my boyfriend saw it as well’ one? I glanced at it but little more. All that proves is she’s not mad, not in this place anyway – it seems she’s in good company.
