A couple of weeks ago I wrote about the epidemic of UFO sightings under the influence of Jupiter and Uranus as they team up in the sky, and thanks to those readers who let me know about the press conference by the former Air Force officers who are coming out under this influence to tell their stories of UFO sightings.  Jupiter is the planet of expanding the mind, and Uranus brings sudden and unusual surprises so when the two team up we can end up with some interesting events.

One of the witnesses, Colonel Charles Halt, ” in December 1980, was the deputy base commander at joint British/American airbases, Bentwaters and Woodbridge, in the Rendlesham Forest in England. Over the course of several nights, UFO activity was high at the base, including reports of unidentified objects near the nuclear weapons storage area.”

One key element in UFO testimony is the question of why more military or scientific voices haven’t come forward in the past to discuss the possibility of UFO reality. Halt has a simple, straightforward answer.

“Because it’s a career killer,” he said. “I tried to keep it all quiet and quite frankly, at the time it happened, I really didn’t want any publicity, didn’t want to be involved in it. Hey, I was coming up for promotion, and this was not a positive thing. My boss wanted nothing to do with it; he kept it at arm’s length.”

What did Halt and the other former Air Force officers at Monday’s news conference conclude about the UFO events they separately experienced during their service careers?

“This was something of intelligent control beyond any technology we know. It’s my firm belief that it was extraterrestrial or from a different dimension.”

And how does Halt feel about allegations that the Air Force has engaged in a specific routine of disinformation regarding UFO reports?

“How do you kill a story better than making it so ridiculous that everybody laughs when they hear it? And I can tell you, the military has it down to a science.”

The UFO community has been pushing for “disclosure,” and this is certainly a strong step in that direction.  You can watch the full press conference below and decide for yourself!
