Britain Releases Secret Papers on UFO Sightings

I have no doubt that this was posted somewhere today, but when Original Posters alter the title, it makes it somewhat difficult to spot. Nonetheless, I shall supresses my comments on the following article until fellow ATSers have replied.

Star and Flag so that others can enjoy this.

I apologize. I should have included this, which is the most important part of the post:

I believe this is a few days old, nevertheless definitely worth more attention, its not just the British we have had the italians, mexicans, the french, germans , brazilians the list is endless.

ATS is changing, because of the movement scientifically and governmental in regards to UFO'S e.t.c people are taking this subject seriously now. This is a good thing, because if we can all work together we will find the answers sooner. Dig deep and you will find that this is the 3,4th installment of declassification.

S&F

Has anyone here gotten access to these released documents? Are they available over the net or do you have to search archives in Britain? I ask this because I live in the states and if they are paper archives I am screwed...

If anyone has seen them and they are on the net, what ones do you recommend checking out or find interesting?

I had the MOD UFO files downloaded when they were free, but my USB hard drive packed in on december and now you have to pay for the god damn things. If anyone has a link to a possible free download i would be very happy! And there are lots and lots of triangular shaped ufo cases in britain.

Oh and jonthejedi you can get the files form the Ministry of defence website, but like i said you have to pay for them.

You have to pay for them...well that really sucks. They should be free of charge and available to the people...at least in the UK. I could see having to pay for them if you a re a foreigner.

They were free of charge for quite a few months. I managed to nab them when they were but like i said, hard drive packed in and lost all of my data. Went back to download again and they were charging for them. Maybe an ATS member has them and could upload them to a filesharing site?. Going a bit off-topic now though.

What I found most interesting about this article is that the Brit's are no longer going to investigate UFO's reported by civilians!!!

Why the sudden change? I think all incidences of importances should be reported (i.e., an accident, a robbery, a beating, a cylindrical unidentied flying object cruising around neighbors, etc).

But seriously, I do find this strange ... very strange indeed. I am shocked that not more ATSers aren't making a big deal about this, unless of course it is being discussed somewhere else under a different title [which is a common nuisance on this site].

There is a link in one of the 6 or 7 posts already started in the past couple days....

First post so if i breach etiquette forgive me...

Its not really strange at all. You have to put this occurrence in its wider context.

The MoD is broke, or 'financially overheated' to use politician speak

There is not enough money in the budget to pay for all three services procurement needs in the coming years. The UK is also effectively broke, and with the NHS ring fenced no future government is likely to fill the hole by cutting elsewhere.

Everybody is looking where cuts can be made. The little department that handles UFOs can be cut and MoD centre can show its tightening its belt. Since its been nothing more than a PR exercise anyway nothing of defence capability is lost.

Joe public is for the most part uninterested, or thinks it a sensible move.

Its worth pointing out that despite all the hoopla being made about 'top secret mod files' most are either unclassified or very low levels of classification. Wether there are unreleased docs of higher classification who knows...

IMHO the MoD long ago decided one of two things:

a) Theres nothing to the phenomenon but they should keep a department to assuage the public concern.

b) There is something to it but its best left to the USA (the US spends on black budget programs an amount comparable to 3/4 what the UK spends on its entire defence budget including the nuclear deterrent). They should keep a dept to assuage public concern.

UK defence budget - £42 Billion (www.ukpublicspending.co.uk...)

US black budget - $50 billion (www.wired.com...)

In either case the closure of the UK MoD UFO dept is nothing to get exited about. It changes nothing in either case.

Hope this is informative.

And since this seems as good a place as any...I will add these few youtube selections of 2010 UFO's to this thread, admittedly in the throes of death since it is a repost from a thread started earlier - the location of which is kindly provided in your link.







Yes- this appears as a reflection but moves independently



As an afterthought, I don't mean to be rude but please can you tell me why Barristers wear those wigs? Is there any significance between short and long ones? Summer and winter wigs? Were the original Barristers women and the wigs are designed fool or mimic women in the court?
I have always wondered where they came from and why it continues for so long. I find it such a curious, odd practice...like everyday is Halloween.
