Exploring the Coast-to-Coast AM: An In-Depth Look into UFO Archives and Sightings
In the world of UFO research, there has been a recent push to digitize and organize the vast amount of information collected over the years. Organizations like MUFON, the Center for UFO Studies, and Archives for the Unexplained (AFU) are taking steps to preserve and make this valuable information accessible to researchers.
One of the key figures in this effort is Dave Marler, who, along with Mark Rodeghier, has been working on digitizing the Center for UFO Studies files. They are also collecting files from other UFO researchers to create The National UFO Historical Records Center. The goal is to convert paper files, audio recordings, and other collected material into digital form for online research purposes.
Marler’s project has already made significant progress, thanks to an army of volunteers using the latest technology. While it’s still in its early stages, a considerable amount of material has already been digitized, making it easier for researchers to access and analyze.
MUFON’s Project Aquarius is another important initiative in the field of UFO research. However, the name itself poses a bit of a challenge as it is associated with the discredited MJ-12 documents. Despite this, researchers and estates of prominent figures like Len Stringfield and Bob Pratt have donated material to the project, furthering its mission.
Speaking of sightings, there have been interesting reports that would be valuable additions to these archives. One such sighting occurred on April 7 in Skowhegan, Maine. The witness had been studying glowing orb UFO sightings when he noticed an object in the sky that resembled those he had been researching. The object was green and appeared triangular in shape. It moved silently and had fluctuating lights. The witness speculated that his own experiment with generating a high Tesla magnetic field might have somehow attracted the UFO.
Another sighting worth noting took place in Broomfield, Colorado on April 3. The witness observed an object that changed color for ten minutes before vanishing. Interestingly, the shape of this UFO resembled the one reported in the Japanese Air Line 1628 case from 1986. In that case, the pilot’s drawing of the object closely resembled the pictures taken in Colorado.
For those interested in delving deeper into these sightings and other UFO-related topics, there are resources available. One such resource is the book “The Government UFO Files,” which features a chapter dedicated to the Japanese Air Line 1628 case. The author of the book had the opportunity to interview John Callahan, the chief FAA investigator on the case, providing valuable insights into the incident.
As efforts to digitize and organize UFO research material continue, it is becoming increasingly accessible to researchers worldwide. These initiatives are not only preserving valuable information but also encouraging further exploration and analysis of the UFO phenomenon. With ongoing collaboration between organizations and individuals passionate about the subject, the collective knowledge about UFOs is steadily growing, bringing us closer to unraveling the mystery behind these enigmatic objects in our skies.
