Scanning space

An old personal computer inside the Perkins Observatory in Delaware County is hard at work searching for aliens.

Observatory Director Tom Burns can’t remember when the donated PC joined the worldwide network of 235,000 computers analyzing radio waves for a signal from deep space.

“Since the beginning, I think,” he said.

ABSTRACT
There have been a number of remarks by people calling themselves scientists attacking the notion that any flying saucers are of alien origin. The arguments aren’t scientific, but rather represent research by proclamation rather than investigation. We can learn a lot about how to deal with these attacks by focusing on the claims that are made and what is irrational or illogical or just plain wrong about them. This is worth doing because often the claims are left unchallenged and college level students in science and journalism and the general public are taught baloney as if it were truth.

Sketch of the object

Now here’s something you don’t see everyday, even in the wild world of unexplained phenomenon, a cube-like UFO. Almost looks like something you would see in a Von Daniken book. Sure doesn’t look like it would be too aerodynamic.  

MUSWELL Hill’s growing reputation as “Roswell Hill” for its mysterious night-sky activity has taken another alien turn with the latest UFO sighting.

Actor Sam Lathem was so spooked by the appearance of a large cube-shaped “ship” with orange lights erratically making its way across the sky he sketched an image of the floating object.

UFO Hunters

The UFO Hunters are in danger of disappearing from the History Channel. The History Channel has yet to decide whether they are going to bring Bill Birnes, Kevin Cook, and Pat Uskert back for a fourth season.  It’s really too bad because this season was fantastic with episodes featuring Underground Alien Bases at Dulce, UFO Surveillance, and Underwater Area 51. But not all is lost yet. You can shoot over to the UFO Hunters Season Four Petition and show your support. Sign it here.
