UFO Hunters: Reverse Engineering
History Channel tonight /April 23, 2008/@ 9pm Central/10pm Eastern
Episode summary:
"Reverse engineering is a common practice used by private industry and the government as a means to keep up with or surpass the competition. Has the
US military derived various forms of technology, including stealth technology, from downed UFO's? Are we competing with extra-terrestrial beings
using their downed craft as the genesis for advances in modern technology? Follow a team from UFO magazine as they investigate the possibility that
the technology providing us with fiber optics, night vision and the microchip, just to name a few, were derived from wreckage obtained from Roswell
and other UFO crash sites."
This should be interesting...Phillip Corso's best selling book, "The Day After Roswell" was primarily about reverse engineering...He worked at the
Pentagon under General Trudeau in the Foreign Technology Division.
The Day After Roswell
Main article: The Day After Roswell
Philip Corso relates in his book The Day After Roswell (co-author William J. Birnes) how he stewarded extraterrestrial artifacts recovered from a
crash at Roswell, New Mexico in 1947.
According to Corso, the reverse engineering of these artifacts indirectly led to the development of accelerated particle beam devices, fiber optics,
lasers, integrated circuit chips and Kevlar material.
In 1947, according to Corso, a covert government group (see Majestic 12) was assembled under the leadership of the first Director of Central
Intelligence, Adm. Roscoe H. Hillenkoetter. Among its tasks was to collect all information on extraterrestrial spacecraft. The US administration
simultaneously discounted the existence of flying saucers in the eyes of the public, Corso says.
Corso further relates that the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), or Star Wars, was meant to achieve the capability of killing the electronic
guidance systems of incoming enemy warheads and disabling enemy spacecraft, including those of extraterrestrial origin.
