The year was 1964. The place 60 miles above the continental USA, An Atlas Missile had an encounter with an aggressive UFO.

We are looking for volunteers. Send us an email if you are interested.

An astonishing case was revealed in 1982 by a former first lieutenant in the Air Force, Dr. Robert Jacobs, now Assistant Professor of Radio-Film-TV at the University of Wisconsin. Dr. Jacobs claims that on 15 September 1964, when he was in charge of the filming of missile tests at Vandenberg AFB, California, a UFO was responsible for the destruction of an Atlas missile. "In order to have clear film records of all missile test firings over the Pacific, we had installed a TV camera, affixed to a high-powered telescope up on a mountain,"

Dr. Jacobs reported:

We kept the telescope locked on to the moving missile by radar, and it was while we were tracking one of the Atlas F missiles in this way that we registered the UFO on our film. We had a crew of 120 men, and I was in charge. As we watched the Atlas F in flight we were delighted with our camera, which was doing fine, in fact we were jumping around with excitement, with the result that, because we were doing this, we actually missed seeing the most important bit of all, our missile’s close encounter, at an altitude of 60 miles, with a UFO!

I only heard about it, in fact, a couple of days later, when I was ordered to go and see my superior. Major Florenz J. Mansmann, Chief Science Officer of the Unit. With him there in his office there were a couple of men, in plain clothes. He introduced them to me only by their first names and said they had come from Washington, DC.

Then Major Mansmann had the film of the test run through. And, just at that point where my men and I had been busy congratulating ourselves and each other, Major Mansmann pointed to the screen and said: "Watch this bit closely."

Suddenly we saw a UFO swim into the picture. It was very distinct and clear, a round object. It flew right up to our missile and emitted a vivid flash of light. Then it altered course, and hovered briefly over our missile, and then there came a second vivid flash of light. Then the UFO flew around the missile twice and set off two more flashes from different angles, and then it vanished.

A few seconds later, our missile was malfunctioning and tumbling out of control into the Pacific Ocean, hundreds of miles short of its scheduled target. They switched on the office lights again, and I found myself confronted by three very intense faces.

Speaking very quietly, Major Mansmann then said: "Lieutenant, just what the hell was that?" I replied that I had no idea. Then we ran the film through several more times, and I was permitted to examine it with a magnifying glass. Then Mansmann again asked me what I thought, and I answered that in my opinion it was a UFO. Major Mansmann smiled and said: "You are to say nothing about this footage. As far as you and I are concerned, it never happened! Right?"

Here then was the confirmation of what the UFO experts had been saying for years past, that the U.S. government was covering up on what it knew about UFOs.

The film was turned over to the two men in plain clothes from Washington, who I believe were CIA agents. The film hasn’t been heard of since. Major Mansmann added: "I don’t have to remind you, of course, of the seriousness of a security breach."

It’s been 17 years since that incident, and I’ve told nobody about it until now. I have been afraid of what might happen to me. But the truth is too important for it to be concealed any longer. The UFOs are real. I know they’re real. The Air Force knows they’re real. And the U.S. government knows they’re real. I reckon it’s high time that the American public knows it too.

This incredible case, of true "Star Wars" proportions, alone justifies the reluctance of authorities to disclose the true facts about UFOs, even if outright hostility is not proven by the destruction of one missile. Yet how can we be certain that the incident was an isolated one?

My Take: This is an awesome case. No other options here, it was either an extra-terrestrial UFO or a complete lie. Nobody in 1964 or even now had the tech for a craft like that. The real question here is, why did the aliens destroy the missile? Did they feel it was some sort of attack? Were they showing us their capabilities?

UFO Radiation Effects

UFOs have on many occasions been reported to have emitted radiation of varying types and strengths, and such cases have led to an official clamp down, almost certainly to avoid public alarm.

On November 6th, 1957, Olden Moore watched a landed UFO for twenty minutes, thirty miles east of Cleveland, Ohio. The following day Moore was questioned by Army representatives as well as scientists from the Case Institute of Technology. Geiger counter readings taken from the center of a fifty-foot area registered ten times the normal amount, and about fifty percent more at the perimeter.

Moore claimed that he had spoken to unspecified "high officials" in Washington and said that he had been sworn to secrecy.

An ex-Navy pilot who saw three oval-shaped UFOs while flying from Hobbs to Albuquerque, New Mexico, on August 13th, 1959, was allegedly warned by an Air Force major at Kirtland AFB that he might become ill after the incident.

The UFOs had caused the pilot’s Magnesyn compass to revolve, following the bearing of the eight-foot-diameter objects as they circled his Cessna 170. The pilot said that he had been ordered not to discuss the case with anyone (hence anonymity), except for his wife, who had to be prepared in the event he became ill.

The Air Force said they would look after him if this happened within six months, but since nothing further was reported about this case as far as I am aware, presumably the pilot was unaffected.

On December 21^st, 1964 Horace Bums encountered a UFO resembling an inverted spinning-top about 125 feet in diameter near Staunton, Virginia. The object caused the engine of his car to cut out as it remained on the ground for sixty to ninety seconds. Radiation readings taken by Professor Ernest Gehman registered 60000 counts per minute, confirmed by two other engineers present. It was concluded that the radiation was of the alpha type and not the more dangerous gamma type.

On January 12, 1965 two Air Force sergeants from Wright-Patterson AFB went to the site and checked it with a Model 2586 Beta-Gamma Survey Meter. Checks were made at over eight spots, and although rain and snow had fallen in the area since the landing, a high reading was picked up by one of the men, which fact he immediately attempted to suppress. Two weeks later the official report was released, denying that there had been a landing of a UFO or traces of radioactivity.

My Take: This is another good reason to avoid approaching a landed UFO, if you ever come across one. Who knows the long term health effects it could have on you.
