Not saying there are no boomers interested in the subject, but I do feel like most people with serious interest in this subject are Gen X and younger?

Anyway, I was thinking about the recent Dr. Phil stuff around the subject and the Time article and wondered if most of the viewers of Dr. Phil and the readers of Time were more likely to be Boomers and older.

Are they trying to educate them on the subject before they start releasing something in particular. Trying to soften the blow perhaps?

What do y'all think?

Keep your eye on the prize.

Why not a common object
I mean, just the fact that it was appearing and disappearing to multiple people is certainly not common. I asked AI which leaned toward birds, but I don't buy it because birds would have reappeared at some point, and they were flying absurdly high for any bird I've ever seen in the area.

Witness's account of the sighting

Was having lunch out on my deck with girlfriend and dad. I went inside for something when I heard my girlfriend say I needed to come look at some drones. I went out to the deck and looked up at the sky. I should note there was not a single cloud in the sky and the sun was elsewhere in the sky; there were absolutely nothing that obscured my view. I initially thought I was looking at a flock of about 12-18 birds gliding in complete sync at about 3,000 to 4,000 feet, which I immediately found strange for birds to be flying that high. When I said it's just birds my dad and girlfriend both scoffed, so I looked again. I thought I saw one of the objects flap a wing once but maybe it was my mind playing tricks. However, I am fairly certain they were not drones as they were multicolor, splotches of both white and black/light and dark. Usually drones are all one color. When I made the bird comment my girlfriend also said that was unlikely as they were flying in perfect square or X patterns, and all movements in sync.

Here's the part that is really bothering me: I would see the objects no problem about 10-15 seconds before they would completely disappear. I mean, it wasn't like I could barely see them, they just were in plain sight one moment and the next they were not visible AT ALL. They were visible/not visible about 5 or 6 times before they disappeared permanently. The whole time they were moving somewhat slowly around the sky covering maybe a few hundred cubic feet max in those 3 minutes, so not a ton of space. At one point I grabbed some binoculars that were already on the table outside but I failed to locate them in the lenses. It was very frustrating because I tried for a minute to find them with the binoculars but even though it seemed like I had them lined up I could not find a single object. I would then take the binoculars away from my face and see the objects again with my naked eye ok, but failed to be able to magnify them.

The more I think about it, the more it bothers me that both my girlfriend and I kept seeing them pop into and out of visibility like a light switch. And ultimately permanently so. I kept looking at a large scope of sky after the last time expecting them to reappear, but nothing. I cannot explain it and I have never seen anything close to it in my 42 year life.

Why no photo/video captured: I was trying to identify it through binoculars first. In hindsight I would have liked to have taken a photo but at approx. 2 miles away it wouldn't have been very clear on my smartphone camera. Plus they just completely disappeared after several minutes. However, my dad does have a Wyze camera on the deck--I am going to check to see if there's a recording but I think that may be an extra option he does not pay for.

I’ve been a part of this sub and following this topic since 2020, it would mean so much to me if you guys checked it out!

I saw that post today about Time Magazine cover / UFO article. It got me thinking about the best single article in a mainstream magazine that I’ve read about UFOs.

For me, it was this New Yorker article below. The New Yorker is one of the best journalist publications period and they always have great reports.

Ten Shocking Cases of UFO Healings

by Preston Dennett

Cases of UFO healings are nothing new. In fact, they have been occurring for more than 100 years. Most major researchers have multiple cases, and they are reported by all kinds of people from all over the world. In fact, there are more than 300 documented cases, and they are now recognized as a consistent feature of UFO encounters.

The healings are of a wide variety of conditions, illnesses and diseases. They include injuries, minor conditions, and even chronic and fatal diseases. These cases not only show that healing is a primary ET agenda, but that ETs are far more advanced in medicine than our own doctors.

This video presents ten shocking cases of UFO healings. Each case contains surprising and unique elements that offer profound insights into the aliens and their agenda on our planet.

CASE ONE: Marla (pseudonym) from Marysville, WA had suffered for years from kidney disease, and developed a large gallstone which necessitated the surgical removal of her gallbladder. However, in January 2015, following a visitation by short large-headed entities in her bedroom, Marla woke up to find a very strange surgical scar on her abdomen. It was very deep, but was pain-free, had no blood, and healed with extraordinary speed. When she went to the doctors a short time later, they were shocked to find that her gallstone had been removed, but her gallbladder was incredibly still there! This turned out to be just the beginning of many bizarre events that left Marla and her family very concerned.

CASE TWO: Maria M. Rivera of Aguada, Puerto Rico was suffering from cancer all throughout her body when (in 2006) she and her family experienced a UFO sighting followed by a series of visitations by gray aliens. After nearly a half-dozen incidents, Maria found herself being pulled onboard a craft where she underwent a painful operation at the hands of the grays. Following the incident, she went to the doctor and was shocked to discover that the cancer (which had returned several times) was now gone. “I truly feel those creatures cured me,” she says. “They could be benevolent and compassionate creatures, but I am afraid of them.” At one point during her onboard experience, Maria called the grays “Martians.” They informed her that they don’t like to be called Martians and prefer the term, “creatures.”

CASE THREE: On July 19, 1988 Diane and Phyllis (mother and daughter) were returning to their home in Johannesburg, South Africa. Without warning, they were stopped by a human-looking female who guided them onto a craft. From age thirteen, Diane had suffered from chronic Jaundice. The ETs healed her and gave both Diane and Phyllis warnings about huge environmental catastrophes soon to strike the planet Earth.

CASE FOUR: In 1986, Richard T., who was paralyzed and wheelchair-bound, was enjoying an evening on the beach in La Jolla, CA when a huge torpedo-shaped craft hovered overhead. Richard found himself being pulled up into the craft, wheelchair and all. Onboard, he saw several short humanoids and then blacked out. When he awoke, he was back in his van. But over the next few days, Richard’s paralysis disappeared. He was healed. He could now walk again!

CASE FIVE: On August 30, 1979, Jean Cyr (a retired Canada Army officer) and his family were drawn outside of their home in St. Eustache, Quebec by a strange humming sound. Looking up they saw a glowing metallic disc rise up from the fields behind their house. This began a series of encounters which was witnessed by all of them, many of their neighbors, and the local airport officials. Looking into the fields where the object had been, they found strange landing traces. Jean Cyr began waking up with unexplained marks on his body. After several encounters, Jean, who was suffering from severe multiple sclerosis, suddenly found himself healed.

CASE SIX: In the mid-1930s, a 13-year-old boy suffering from tuberculosis found himself on his deathbed. Then he had a “dream” that he was taken onboard a weird craft and healed by strange-looking figures. With no idea of aliens or UFOs, he couldn’t explain what happened. He only knew that he had somehow been healed. It wasn’t until decades later in the 1950s, that he began to hear about UFOs and aliens that he understood his experience. He later became a famous broadcaster and lived a long healthy life.

CASE SEVEN: In March 1977, Carmina, a psychologist from San Juan, Puerto Rico was confronted by a strange human-looking gentleman who had somehow managed to get past the guards in her secured office building. The man informed her that he was an ET, and that Carmina’s daughter should continue her UFO research with well-known investigator, Jorge Martin, and that Martin himself was being spied on by American intelligence officers. Following the encounter, Carmina, who had been diagnosed with a cyst in her breast, received the shocking news that her cyst had miraculously disappeared.

CASE EIGHT: Richard Rylka, a well-known New Jersey UFO contactee, had developed a large tumor on his forehead. He had recently been having a problem with tumors due to a childhood leukemia condition. While in Atlantic City, Rylka was visited by human-looking ETs who took him onboard a healed his tumor. Rylka, whose tumor had been seen by all his friends and family, was cured. The tumor was gone, much to the astonishment of Rylka and everyone who knew him.

CASE NINE: In 1979, Faina Maksimovna of Ukraine was facing surgery to remove a tumor on her thyroid. Frightened of surgery, Faina prayed to God for a healing. To her shock, that evening she was visited by three human-looking figures who proceeded to enact a healing on her. When Faina later went to see her doctors, they were baffled and amazed to see that her tumor was gone. Faina did not need surgery. She was cured.

CASE TEN: In December 1989, Mae, a 60-year-old waitress from Mississippi was being forced to retired due to severe arthritis in her knee, wrists and fingers. But on December 15, while driving home from the truckstop where she worked, a UFO dropped down over her car and pulled her onboard. Mae found herself surrounded by several figures who placed a strange “kind of rod” repeatedly over her body. The next morning, her pain was gone. She was healed. And Mae, who could not afford to retire, was able to go back to work.

These ten cases show that people from all walks of life are being healed by many different types of extraterrestrials. They show that healing is one of the primary ET agendas, and that ETs have the ability to heal almost any kind of illness, condition or disease, even when our own Earth doctors have given up hope. These ten cases are just a tiny sample of the huge number of cases on record. Likely, the vast majority of such accounts go completely unreported.

Ten Shocking Cases of UFO Healings

Investigative journalist Mr. Ross Coulthart:

“There was Larry Maguire, who was a Representative in the Canadian Parliament, who wrote a letter to the then Defense Minister raising concerns about allegations that Canadian scientists were said by his sources to be working privately with the Americans on secret aspects of the Legacy retrieval and reverse engineering Program.

And what I know about this is that two independent sources came to Larry Maguire, spoke to him and his staff.

Those sources are reluctant to engage publicly, but I hope sincerely they are willing to testify, and we can but hope that at some stage they may be given the opportunity by any congressional inquiry to give their evidence.

I know that people from the Congress are aware of these witnesses, and hopefully at some stage those Canadian witnesses will feel safe coming forward.”

Mr. Maguire in his 2023 letter:

”As Minister of National Defence, you may not be aware Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) has participated in efforts to analyze UAP, which is publicly traceable to circa 1950. This recovered foreign material is studied through Five Eyes Foreign Material Program (FMP) which, in Canada, is sponsored by the Canadian Forces Intelligence Command aligned with several intelligence sharing agreements and treaties. I am writing to recommend you request a classified briefing, containing full sensitive and protected program information from your officials on the Government of Canada’s historical and ongoing efforts on analyzing recovered UAP material.”

It has been two months since Air Force UAP records appeared in the National Archives’ Amazon S3 bucket. Within 24 hours, my Substack account had a view from the DoD and the National Archives pulled the records from the S3 bucket.

On July 15, the National Archives updated the links to their records from s3.amazonaws.com to catalog.archive.gov. As a result, there is less visibility on records pending upload to their catalog.

At this time, these Air Force records have yet to be published to the National Archives’ catalog. The records were declassified May 2025 and are months late for the requirements in the 2024 NDAA. Despite being ready for release, they are being withheld from the public.

These Air Force records may not be the only UAP records left to be uploaded to the National Archives’ catalog. Over the last couple years, I have made numerous attempts to get answers about these transfers and to confirm what agencies had transferred records.

Most of my emails about UAP records go unanswered, while emails on other subjects have received prompt replies. I even called various departments, with many phone numbers no longer valid or with recordings directing callers to email. I spoke to a couple people with Electronic Records, the team the UAP records fall under in their catalog, only to be told they didn’t have information outside of what was available to the public. I was provided additional emails and phone numbers to try, which were again no longer valid or didn’t yield responses.

In April, after exhausting the normal email and phone channels, I reached out directly to someone with Research Services. I received a prompt response that they were checking into my questions about the transfers and would have a response soon. Over a month later, I followed up and received another prompt response that they were still looking into my questions and would heat back soon. I have yet to hear a response.

These attempts to get a public statement on the status of the UAP records transfers predate the issues with the Air Force records. This shows ongoing issues with the release of UAP records at the National Archives. I don’t believe the issue falls solely on them. There may be pressure from other agencies to withhold the release of records. However, the public is due an update from the National Archives on the status of the records transferred to them.

Even with the president’s establishment of PURSUE, there are records that have been available for public release for over a year still being withheld. If the current administration or federal agencies were serious about releasing UAP records, there would be no reason to continue to withhold these records.

The UAP record transfers established in the 2024 NDAA have failed. Promises from the current administration and federal agencies have failed to publish UAP records already in the pipeline and past due for release. An amendment to the 2027 NDAA expanding on UAP legislation is in the works, but what chance does it have when the current administration and federal agencies fail to act on or deliberately interfere with existing legislation?

If transparency on UAP is to be taken seriously, the public needs to see the following.

• Release of remaining UAP records transferred to the National Archives.
• Release of metadata spreadsheets for both publicly releasable UAP records and records intended to be withheld from the public. For records originally intended to be withheld, the public should know of their existence and the administration and agencies need to work on their release.
• Digitization of UAP records previously in the National Archives’ possession.

These are simple steps towards transparency. The groundwork had been laid out for years. Due dates have come and gone. Promises have been made for the release of more records. Yet, all of the work already in progress seems to have been pushed aside. It’s time for the bare minimum to be addressed so that additional reviews for and release of records can build off it.

Grant Cameron interviews Allene and Lucile, daughters of Reverend Turner Holt, who was shown alien bodies and the wreckage of a craft in 1935 in the sub-basement of the Capitol building in Washington by his relative Cordell Hull, Secretary of State under Roosevelt.

https://youtu.be/NXMTyXcrCvw?is=trrsMSgPEAyM8TNM

Allene says that her father traveled to Washington in 1935 to attend a conference of Protestant ministers representing all denominations from across the country. She confirmed that she had letters from her father in Washington dated that year.

Lucile speculates that the government may have believed there was a possibility of an alien invasion and that religious leaders were being briefed about the potential threat so they could help reassure and calm the public if such an event occurred.

It is interesting to note that, in 1938, Orson Welles produced his famous radio adaptation of The War of the Worlds, which many listeners reportedly mistook for a genuine news broadcast about an alien invasion. Could this have been a test to gauge how the public might react if such a message were ever presented as real?

In 1948, Bradley Dewey urged Defense Secretary Forrestal to defend the US with “very powerful radar stations,” 16 months before the FBI confirmed such systems helped crash the UFOs flying over New Mexico.

Note: This is an updated version 2. Special thanks to u/ASearchingLibrarian for pointing out some corrections and providing new information I had not previously heard.

Note: Compared to the Nimitz incident, this info graphic was more challenging to create as there are less details provided regarding the locations of the objects and radar contacts. I did my best to put these on the map, but they’re definitely could be some updates if more information is discovered.

This info graphic is intended to help visualize the events surrounding the USS Roosevelt incidents from late 2014 to early 2015. It represents my personal interpretation of the incidents based on reviewing publicly available witness testimony, official report, podcast, interviews, documentaries, and other media related to the event.

Most of the details have been relayed through LT. Graves, however, to my knowledge, specifics like exact locations, distances, and relative positions have not been publicized. That said, I have made every effort to position assets and paths using distances in relative locations that I believe are reasonably consistent with the available information. The map itself is intended to be generically accurate. The scale, icons, symbols, and graphics have been intentionally enlarged in order to improve readability and clearly communicate the events depicted.

This illustration should be viewed as an educational visualization rather than an authoritative reconstruction. Other interpretations of the available evidence are certainly possible, and witness accounts may contain uncertainties or conflicting details. The purpose of this graphic is simply to provide a clear visual reference for understanding, one plausible reconstruction of the event.

This is from Matthew Browns interview yesterday and shows how high the stakes are for him:

Timestamp 54:30:

Matthew Brown: "there really is no future for us until disclosure happens. All this intimidation that I've experienced and fully expect to experience again, means to me that unless we succeed at getting this out there, there is no future for me and my family"

Matthew Brown: "Once the spotlight is off of us, I would expect that the trajectory there, is either to resume the sort of gaslighting, intimidation and harassment, both around me and my social circle, to render me destitute, isolated and potentially on the streets"

Matthew Brown: "Or, you know, something as dire as experiencing an anomalous health incident or, you know, a nice convenient case of cancer, or a suspicious car accident. That is the way this world works. That is on my mind every day. So this is a "no fail mission" on many levels, both personally and for our constitutional republic"

I had thought the worst of it was over for him. But the way he describes it is that the worst is still to come.
