I remember this clearly. I was 7 years old living in Shinfield and we (the family) were eating dinner and this came on the tv. I was really scared when I heard the voice and still remember it clearly to this day. I know this really happened but am a bit skeptical as it was broadcasted in a Brittish accent, I can't remember for sure as it was 31 years ago but I think the next day the newcast had mentioned that some 'Hooligans' as I think they had said had broken into the station and used the transmitting equipment. But am not sure in '77 if broadcasts were recorded or live?

Now this is one of my favoured subjects. I read about this in a book that i have and finally, after having some feasible re-intrest in UFO phenomenon recently, i typed this into goggle and found topics about it here that made me eventually join. Anyway, i was reading another post about the 'WEB BOT' predictions. And am pretty sure they mentiond tension between Russia and China. And i know predictions can be schetchy but it suddenly reminded me of 'THE VOICE' Also in the book i have it says about an epidemic that would cross Europe, which i think, could have been B.S.E (Mad cow disease) also about the scientific exploitation of animals for food. I dont have a clue what that could be but i like to think that the way that we breed cattle with the same bulls to produce stronger cows that make more milk or even more fat so that they provide more meat. Were interfearing with their genetics and creating irregularitys. For instance, and i cant provide links but i remmember reading about 'Dog breeders' and how after using the same line to create a strong pedigree the animals later had brain defects in their later life. And the next thing the voice goes on about is the ozone layer and how most people hadnt heard of a hole in it, in the year of 1977. And also, what id like to bring up last is that the voice later mentiond a false prophet that would apper at the beginning of the 21st century who would be 'like' another Hitler....
Most of what i read about was in a book called The Unexplaind (strange encounters) published by Parragon in 2000. I managed to down load a recording of it which was only a short snipet. Id like to think its genuine, and its probably been debunked, but i still like to think about it and see if any of its events do crop up...

And also, even today, how many topics do you hear about how you shouldnt listen to your leaders? And how they turn your money into worthless dross.. Isnt this whats happening in America at the moment? I know its easy to draw comparatives but maybe there is something to be looked at again here in this transmission!? And yes, i know that its not the first time a signals been hijacked. If you look it up you find out about the talking TV head who done Pepsi adverts years back, who appeart on a broadcast talking rubbish and 'moonin' the camara.
Also i notice more interpritations of the message with variations on the name, and even the actual message its self. The one in my book mentions things
that the original posts message dosnt. And vice versa. It could be the writers interpratation but still, its a striking message that could be disscussed all day.

All hail Ashtar Command!

They are returning from the dark side of our Moon this year.

Peace and truth Earth friends. All Hail Ashtar Command!

Anything in the name of Ashtar is baloney. Ashtar is a real presence but an evil one.

You have an area of broadcast that has at it's centre a black propaganda base that specialised in this kind of thing sitting under the Political Warfare Executive and by the 70s the *cough* Communications Engineering Department.

I have always thought this might possibly originate from Kings Standing.

I just found this and thought it was cool and found video footage. I don't know if it is the legit footage or not.

Jump to 1:25 for the broadcast and interruption.



en.wikipedia.org...

I saw the broadcast from my friend's flat by Clapham Common. I was also involved in an investigation into the incident...

Some thoughts and some actual facts about it here... My take on the 1977 incident


Plus another incident that took place on LBC radio some years earlier of a similar nature... It had happened before


Oh, just to add for the OP, it was ITV not the BBC that was hijacked.

Wouldn't an alien race trying to send a message hijack all tv stations? Similar to Zod in Superman. If they have alll of this tech this would be easy for them. Instead they just use ITV.

It cracks me up that humanity has devolved so tremendously, to the point that we can literally have a live broadcast hi-jack from other-world citizens warning us that we're going to destroy ourselves, and we:

a) Cant decide whether it's real or not, mainly because we've devolved to the point where trust between us is an issue. We cannot simply believe things for what they are because certain individuals make a living on deception and guile. - Great! - 10 points to humanity....

b)Ignore the message because we cant decide whether it's real or not, and continue to poison ourselves and blow things up for fun.

We should step back and decide.... Isn't being gullilbe and united better than being skeptic and segregated ?

People miss the point in life so much, its irrelevant if you protect your ego by being a skeptic only to isolate yourself from everyone else.

Lets say for instance that all the skeptics in the world are right, that theres no mystery to be found, everything is just a hoax. What then happens to our hopes and dreams ? - what you're looking at there is a stagnant life not worth living.

But if we're all gullible and we believe in fairy tales, hell at least we're living in a dream world together - we might even eventually MAKE it real.
If we turn out to be wrong, at least we can all have a laugh together about being wrong. Life is about us united, not everyone trying to do their own thing.

Jesus put it best, and it's an eternal and universal truth, "a house divided wont stand" - how much more so for a planet.

People we need to get a grip on ourselves as a species, and fast.

Join me!

I like the message though makes sense to me.
-ciao bella

Hoax or not, tragically no-one listened in 1977.

Now we have Chernobyl (which is in need of expensive ongoing repairs/maintenance) and Fukushima where we have now been told there are three melted cores which have breached containement and are heading into the ground below which is the watercourse (plus a load of other worrying stuff going on). The actual current status is unknown as no-one (human and robots) have been able to get close enough to find out.

Great! So if we had listened, and headed this warning (even if it was fake) then we may have been able to avoid these (and other) disasters.

It makes no sense to mess with this kind of toxic poision, some of which lasts longer than we can imagine (try thousands/millions of years) and pollute our planet (our home which we cannot leave), when we have no techonolgy that can properly contain it or clean it up/remove the radiation and render it safe.

We are very, very stupid.

And yes ... there is more to come as the seeds have already been sown. There are many nuclear reactors all over the world, each and every one of these is getting old and being potential Fukushima's. Each and every one of these are situated near a water source, be it the sea or a river - and we all know how important water is to sustaining life. Once our water sources are ruined, made dead and undrinkable for thousands/millions of years by radiation, we had better hope and pray that the aliens are real and able and willing to help us because at this time we cannot even help ourselves.

Hey FireMoon - loving your avatar picture - made me chuckle! I will look out for you on the motorway!

Wasn't the "WOW" message received the same year? I believe it was August 1977.

Just watched the YouTube video and i kept waiting for it to say "this is the voice of the mysterons" as it sounds so similar

Honestly, stuff in the 1970's was a cinche to hack. So few people had the knowledge that was needed to use computers and electronics, that security was a joke. You could hack long distance by simply recording the right star-tones. You could hack almost any computer, and television would have been a snap, since nothing was computerized.

It was also less than a decade from a whole generation of anti-nuke, spiritualist hippies who wanted to find new ways to get their message across. I'm not insulting the hippies, but rather, stating that most likely, if you got some hippies who had heard about this "Ashtar Command" stuff, and they made friends with an engineer, it would have been a pretty simple job to hack broadcast towers and override audio with some anti-nuke speech.

Still, I'd pay good money to see that video.

You could hack long distance phone calls for free simply by whistling at the right frequencies.

Its a great video.

Guess we will have to wait until 2014...

Funny thing about that video, the message was diffrent again.
Wish I had my old MP3 of it which mentions a lot more, should have linked/uploaded it years back.

eee.

It will be different - the clip appears to show a BBC programme presented by Cliff Michelmore, whereas the hijack affected an ITV news broadcast by Ivor Mills. Also, sound was interrupted, but not vision. That YouTube clip is a fake, I believe.

For many years your scientists, government and generals have not heeded our warnings; they have continued to experiment with the evil forces of what you call nuclear energy. Atomic bombs can destroy the Earth, and the beings of your sister worlds, in a moment. The wastes from atomic power systems will poison your planet for many thousands of your years to come.

Whether fake or real, the message is a pure one and surely that cannot be argued against?

Yes, it certainly can.

The wastes from nuclear power systems are, globally, insignificant in the environmental destruction compared to zillions of other large scale industrial processes. Foremost among them, of course, farming and the use of fossil fuels. Not a word about something actually planetary-scale dangerous, like global warming from changing the atmosphere.

Advanced ETs would get to where they are by full exploitation of physical laws in their total and wouldn't have such a simplistic black and white message. Nuclear physics isn't evil, mass-murder whether by nukes or by gas or by germs or by machetes is.

It sounds exactly like 1970's hippies who were fixated (incorrectly) on nuclear power then. "Age of Aquarius"? What would any ET know or care about this?
