My name is Stan Friedman.I have been investigating UFOs since 1958. Ask Me Anything

Mr. Friedman,

Is there anything in your studies that could suggest that these beings are from earth but from a different dimension?

Hi Stan,thank you for taking the time to do this,as you have brought much needed credibility to a field ripe with charlatans.

I have many questions,but will just ask one as you obviously are being bombarded with many questions.

What are your thoughts on the Shag Harbor case,I believe this to be one of the most fascinating UFO cases in history.

The Brookings Report was interesting.. though I see no evidence that the preparers were given any inside info. I liked the notion they put forth that contact with aliens would be most distressing to scientists ..especially those who had pooh poohed. it.I have not seen any pressures on me. No idea whhether there should be step by step disclosure of artifacts on the moon or other planets. The existence of the concentration camps and millions of people having been slaughtered was put out full grown. not gradually. Also the atom bomb was put forth straightforwardly after Hiroshima. We can handle it.

I have spoken at a couple of Shag Harbour conferences and think it is an excellent case. Don Ledger and Chris Stles did a fine job on their book."Dark Object" One advantage over Roswell is that it was 20 years later and there were many witnesses to the event and that the RCMP was immediately involved.

I am a physicist .I don't what I can do about reptilians.I have heard some stories but not much else. I look for evidence.. data. I am not a
social worker. Not all stories told with a UFO connectionare true.

What do you think about Whitley Strieber's story and his book Communion?

Did you speak at the UFO conference in Chicago in the mid-1970s? Ken Arnold, Betty Hill, Ray Palmer and others were there, I think it was the first major UFO conference ever held, although I may be mistaken on that. Have any good stories about it, or some of the other conferences? thanks again.

Mr Friedman,

I was wondering what your thoughts on William Cooper were? Did you ever get a chance to meet him?

I believe that in the 3 cases I mentioned the crashes were inadvertent.Certainly in many of Ted Phillips landing trace cases they seemed to be gathering specimens such as plants,minerals, or small animals and in cases like the Hill case Human specimens for examination.I know of no landings in the middle of a super bowl or public gathering. I certainly think they have been visiting for a very long time.We made have been a rich source of certain minerals. Earth is the densest of all the planets circling the sun. That means more heavy metals which are fairly rare such as uranium, rhenium, tungsten,iridium , osmium,gold. We are just beginning to appreciate uranium. Its major use 100 years ago was as a yellow coloring agent for tableware.Zirconium and hafnium and titantium were not used for much of anything before 1940. Nuclear navy uses loads of zirconium. The rare earths are now in great demand for electric cars, permanent magnets etc.Travelers at O'Hare airport have many different reasons for travelling. There is also the fact that it took very few years from when we started into technology to become capable of spreading our brand of friendship (hostility) to other worlds. If I were an alien I would be very concerned about us wreaking havoc out there.

Frankly, NO.

Yes, I did. Fate Magazine arranged it. I do remember that the media immediately made a beeline for anybody in a far out costume.

HUMAN & ANIMAL MUTILATIONS:

What is your take on both?

Recently I heard the US Military has admitted to the Cattle abductions and mutilations so they could measure radiation they had exposed etc.
I only know of three human abduction claims where death was the end result-it is claimed.

An Air Force airmen (3-6 John Lovette) was alledged abducted from a missle fire range and done up.

A sheep handler in Columbia-peru areas:

Whoever they were. Had a level of stunning precision. They were specific about what body parts and internal organs they wanted. They removed the left eye, the left ear, the lips, the tongue, and the jaw bone.

And Tood Sees in Central PA (which I am working on disproving but Dare to take on the Big UFO investigators)

Should the US re-start the National Aerospace Plane program?

reply to post by Stanton Friedman


Stan --- On the topic of communication with these alien entities --- in your opinion --- besides face to face contact/telepathy...is laser holographic imagery a viable option in an effort to communicate with ET, and do they [ET] possibly communicate in other forms; such a in geoglyph carving's on cliff faces?


Thanks

Whitley wrote the forward to my book "Top Secret/Majic.". I do think he was abducted. The great success of his book Communion certainly made it much easier to get a UFO book published than it had been earlier. There have been times when he was unsure of the difference between what was going on in the real world and what was going on in his fertile imagination. He has covered a lot of ground in his radio program

Sorry but I have no idea.

Materials can be put together in various forms. I think based on what we know about the composition of the stars and of minerals here that, we know of all the elements..but surely we don't know of all possible combinations or of different methods of manufacture rolling, extruding.heat treating, etc. Different isotopes of the same element can have very different properties especially nuclear ones. etc. In WW 2 we built a gaseous diffusion plant in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, to enrich uranium. It was a mile long and used 5% of all the electric power in the USA..in secret.Normal uranium only has 0.7% U-235. Enriched, which is usually required for an atom bomb, can be as high as 92% U-235

Certainly many animal mutilations have occured. I really don't know who is doing it or why, whether Earthlings or aliens. Maybe it is a teching tool. I cut up a frog in highschool biology. Human mutilations are in my gray basket.. Maybe

Good afternoon Mr. Friedman, I am wondering what you make of USO's, and do you think that there are indeed any areas of the worlds oceans where there may be a base and /or lots of activity there? Thank you.

Mr.Friedman before you leave today i just want to thank you for being here and answering some of my questions,which i have many but of course other members have theirs to.You are one of the people i trust the most on the subject of UFOS.Thank you now i can sit back and read what others have to say and learn more
