I've been a long time follower of this topic and subreddit and wanted to share my close up sighting.

Setting

Time: 7pm. Year 2000.

Location: A suburb of East London. Pretty dark out and I was on the upper floor of our house.

The Sighting

It is important to remember that I did not believe in UFOs at the time and because I was quite young, I was unfamiliar with UFO lore/sightings.

I was in my room when all of a sudden I had an inexplicable urge to look out the bay window at the front and when I did, I saw the edge of a large craft roughly 40-50ft above my head coming from behind our row of houses. Completely silent.

Initially I thought it must have been a helicopter, but then the whole craft came into view and I couldn't believe what I was looking at. It was a huge disc shaped craft with a dome at the top and bottom covered in small red, orange and white lights.

The red and orange lights seemed to be pulsating on and off, while the white lights seemed to be coming out of small windows or something like that.

The disc was slightly tilted so I had a good side profile view of it as it passed over our houses and went at a steady pace up into the sky. I remember the feeling of being unable to categorize what I was looking at, it felt so surreal. I remember thinking "I can't be seeing this?!"

I then backed away from the window, unable to comprehend what I was seeing and for the past twenty four years haven't talked about it, until I watched The Phenomenon by James Fox in 2020.

I've looked back at sighting records from the area/time and have seen other people reported exactly the same craft.

The phenomenon is real.

I just wanted to add my voice to all those who have seen these craft up close. Hopefully disclosure is coming soon.

Thanks for reading.

Unidentified drones were spotted over three airbases in the UK this week, the US Air Force (USAF) has confirmed.

The incidents involved "small unmanned aerial systems" between 20 and 22 November over RAF Feltwell in Norfolk and Suffolk-based RAF Lakenheath and RAF Mildenhall.

It's not clear if the drones were considered hostile, according to the USAF, which uses the bases.

The air force said it maintains the "right to protect" installations but didn't say if any defence mechanisms were used.

"The number of UASs (unmanned aerial systems) fluctuated and they ranged in size/configuration," the USAF said.

"The UASs were actively monitored and installation leaders determined that none of the incursions impacted base residents or critical infrastructure.

"To protect operational security, we do not discuss our specific force protection measures but retain the right to protect the installation.

"We continue to monitor our airspace and are working with host-nation authorities and mission partners to ensure the safety of base personnel, facilities and assets."

A spokesperson for the UK's Ministry of Defence said: "We take threats seriously and maintain robust measures at defence sites.

"This includes counter drone security capabilities. We won't comment further on security procedures."

A New Zealand-based company just took one step closer to creating a working nuclear fusion reactor, Interesting Engineering reported.

OpenStar Technologies, based in Wellington, said it is building a levitated dipole reactor using high-temperature superconductors along with a levitating electromagnet.

"Our current milestone includes confining a plasma with a magnet charged by a flux pump. So far we have designed, built, and tested such a magnet in less than two years, a feat in and of itself," OpenStar said.

Interesting read, the article has tons of BS ads so sorry about that. But this is pretty interesting technology development.

After reports yesterday that Unidentified Drones had been spotted over RAF Lakenheath in the United Kingdom, U.S. Air Force’s Europe has now confirmed that “Small-Unmanned Aerial Vehicles” were spotted several times over RAF Lakenheath and RAF Mildenhall in Suffolk, and RAF Feltwell in Norfolk, between November 20th to the 22nd. Both U.S. and British Officials have stated the Drones ranged in Size and Configuration, though they have yet to determine if the Drones were considered Hostile. The Event appears strikingly similar to several Drone Intrusions that occurred at Military Bases and Nuclear Facilities in the United States throughout 2024, including at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia.

Consider there is a net gain of info.

Drones will not have nearly as strong information gathering capabilities as the equipment that may be disrupted- taking out your satcomms or UAP detection right along with the flying toy cameras, for instance.

There is no perfect security, and the gamefield changes more quickly as tech progresses. Is interfering with your own intelligence worth taking down drones that likely offer adversaries little more new data outside of immediate personnel than orbital equipment?

Original Title: "This is now the key hangup that prevents full disclosure of the evidence that you demand." -- Dr. Eric Davis of NASA's Breakthrough Propulsion Project. What is stopping UFO disclosure? -- Joe Murgia on Twitter report

---

Source -- very good researcher on there, meticulous at finding hidden gems and transcribing events, interviews and talks especially. His feed there is a library.

Davis: "Grusch reported to the House Oversight subcommittee last year his DOPSR-approved unclassified synopsis of his classified whistleblower complaint to the IGIC (ca. June/July 2022) which itself contains TS/SAP (Special Access Program) information that is exempt from FOIA which no member of both houses of Congress can get access to except for the bicameral Gang of Eight.

"I was one of the witnesses in his classified complaint. And the contents of his classified complaint contain direct firsthand evidence from Dave's security investigations that discovered the existence of the legacy UAP crash-retrieval program.

"You are woefully uninformed about actions and events which took place during 2020-2022 that are not in the public domain. So your commentary is uninformed. The 'evidence,' so to speak, is not releasable by federal laws under Title 10 and Title 50, and a few POTUS executive orders. There are also contractual issues between the USG agencies and the industry firms that are involved in all this, which cannot be legally breached to publicly disclose the evidence that you desire.

"And you witnessed in December how the Schumer-Rounds amendment to the FY24 NDAA got pushback from House leadership and the WH to where the amendment got watered down (via the removal of two key provisions) to prevent the Executive Branch from exercising those now-deleted provisions to avoid violating those (government agency & contractor) contractual legal protections. This is now the key hangup that prevents full disclosure of the evidence that you demand."

Between Wednesday and Friday, "small unmanned aerial systems were spotted over three airbases in the UK: Lakenheath, Mildenhall, and Feltwell. The USAF says nothing critical was affected, but they’re being tight-lipped about their response, only hinting they’re ready to defend their turf.

The MoD is also keeping it vague, mentioning "robust measures." When describing the drones’ “size/configuration fluctuated.” Is this normal for drones?

What do you guys think? Seems where getting more and more of these so called drones flying over military bases.

Original Title: USAF: "[drones/UAP] were spotted at RAF Lakenheath yesterday". Lakenheath has nukes. Sheehan: "the Biden admin has issued an executive order to coordinate a first strike. This is correlated to a major upsurge in UFO surveillance at nuclear facilities. NHI intervention will reveil their presence"

---

Edit: BBC article about the events, published half an hour ago.

First some quotes about the recent (possible still ongoing) drone/UAP events at RAF Lakenheath in the UK:

Update from USAF: "They were spotted in the vicinity of and over RAF Lakenheath, RAF Mildenhall, and RAF Feltwell between Nov 20 and 22.". This confirms incidents have been occurring since Wednesday. And that it impacted other bases. - X

No comment yet from UK MOD over how concerned it is regarding potential Russian operations over UK territory. UK MOD is currently taking a hands-off approach regarding some very serious incidents over UK territory. - X

Comment from someone watching developments on dedicated Lakenheath FB page: "What kind of drones are they if the said response was to send up F15’s to chase them away? I can’t imagine that’s the response for a drone someone gets from Argos or Amazon." - X

All the above tweets were by Christopher Sharp. He also offers this possibility:

I have seen testimony of one person seeing and hearing a drone. An unnerving possibility is that this may be the work of a Russian sleeper cell. - X

Of course it could indeed be drones. Especially since tensions with Russia have been rising. Last week Biden and European leaders gave Ukraine permission to use their long range missiles to attack targets in Russia. Putin has threathened to attack the countries that donated the missiles to Ukraine.

Lakenheath is near Rendlesham, where UAP interfered with nukes in 1980

Lakenheath is about 40 miles (60km) from Rendlesham. In 1980 AUP interfered with the nukes on two US/NATO military bases. Both were on high alert because of geopolitical reasons: NATO thought the Soviet Union was about to invade Poland. You can read a recent post about it here: Recent congressional UAP hearings and other events have basically validated that the Rendlesham incident actually happened.. It also contains an audio tape of the events.

Earlier this year it became clear that Lakenheath would receive nuclear weapons:

RAF Lakenheath: Plans progress to bring US nuclear weapons to Suffolk. The Ministry of Defence said there was a longstanding agreement among NATO partners not to comment on the location of nuclear weapons. - BBC, jan 2024

Since nukes are involved, and there is once again (like the Rendlesham case) a tense geopolitical situation, and we know that UAP have been interfering with nukes for many decades (as Elizondo stated during the Congressional hearing), the Lakenheath case may be the next chapter in this pattern.

Sheehan about an upsurge in UFO surveillance

Theres also a recent (october 25) interview with Sheehan (timestamp 2:28:20):

The United States military now has moved nuclear missiles, the B61 nuclear missiles, the mid-range nuclear missiles, into Germany and Poland. And now they're moving them into the Eastern block. And Putin has responded by giving a command to his field commanders now to train up the deployment and the use of tactical nuclear weapons in the field, in order to protect those two provinces that they've taken back in Crimea.

And just last week the Biden Administration has issued a nuclear deployment executive order, preparing to put short fuses on 1600 United States missiles in the submarines and in the forward projections for immediate first strike. And to coordinate the first strike against the Soviet Union, China and North Korea all at one time.

They've issued that order now to start preparing that, and that's why the Doomsday Clock has been put to 90 seconds short of midnight. The people need to understand that this is now correlated with a major upsurge in the UFO surveillance of all of our nuclear facilities. And that they've (NHI) demonstrated their capacity to shut them off. They've demonstrated their capacity to be able to shut down our nuclear aircraft carriers in other countries as well.

Sheehan about an NHI intervention

From the same interview:

So that type of intervention, if it becomes necessary for them to intervene in order to preserve the life generating capacity of our planet, that it's not to be destroyed by thermonuclear exchange ... that's going to reveal their presence. The National Security State is not prepared yet for revealing their presence, so what they've done is they've come forward with this process right to figure out how they can choreograph releasing an adequate amount of information. To start preparing our people so they can continue to utilize nuclear weapons as a threat, to maintain their control.

Last month Sheehan also gave a lecture at Yale university in which he talks about the NHI intervention thats about to take place

I decided to put together a little collection of newspaper articles so that people could get an idea of what was reported, how it was reported, and when. I'm basically just trying to add a little bit of perspective. If anyone has a subscription to newspapers.com or some other similar service, you can find countless other articles. The terms I was using to locate these include "flying saucer, mystery airship, ball of fire, ghost plane, silver sphere, strange object in the sky, foo-fighter, ghost rocket," and so on. This probably won't be the only post I do on this because there are so many articles.

After reading through countless articles in these various different decades, it seems to me that there have always been weird things in the sky, and over time, a large portion of them will get explained, often correctly. Even before the Kenneth Arnold sighting, I also found some explanations for some of these sightings that were stretched beyond the breaking point, so the two "sides" have been kind of going at it since even before the modern version of the UFO phenomenon.

Weird things in the sky are not new, the whittling down of the sightings to a small percentage remaining is not new, and the terrible 'swamp gas'-type explanations are also not new. Multiple people taking credit for sightings when they clearly couldn't all be responsible is not new, and of course hoaxes are not new, and neither is the ridicule of people who see weird things in the sky.

I'm pretty big on timelines, so these were put in chronological order, and anything in parentheses is a personal short description of the articles. The article information will be: date, newspaper name, location, and page, then title of the article/link underneath.

A couple bits of context because I didn't find articles yet on these:

1941:

There was a lot of stuff going on in Sweden and surrounding areas during the 1930s, very similar to the "ghost planes" happening elsewhere. Here is a post covering that:

I'm also not going to be able to find articles on stuff that happened before newspapers, so if anyone is interested in stuff further back, here are some sightings from the 11th century: and a few sightings from the 1600s:

Did anybody else see this video? It’s so random and out of place. I follow Strange Mysteries on Youtube. I wouldn’t say he’s a UFO/UAP YouTuber however he posts the high strangeness. He received an anonymous email with a bunch of leaked IR UFO objects. He himself finds it creepy, unsettling, and random. Why him and not the other people who leak UFO stuff. What does everyone think of this video and leaks?

As stated in the title, The Sol Symposium is happening this weekend addressing NHI contact and the history of legacy programs addressing UAP sightings and the crash-retrieval reverse-engineering programs. Sol Foundation was set up by whistleblower David Grusch, scientist Garry Nolan, and sociocultural anthropologist Peter Skafish, among others to openly discuss the UFO/UAP NHI/alien question.

This is not the first attempted coordination of attendees of the Sol Foundation (of which I'm not). That can be found here.

https://www.reddit.com/r/HighStrangeness/comments/1go2iev/attending/_the/_sol/_foundation/_2024/_conference/

Thanks to some folks on Twitter, we have a real-time breakdown of the first day of the conference:

Here's the two-day schedule of the presentation:

Sol’s 2024 Symposium

November 22-23 at The Fort Mason Center, San Francisco

(Scroll down for schedule.)

PLEASE NOTE: SEATS ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE. We regret that this is the case and greatly appreciate your interest, but we cannot answer new correspondence requesting invitations at the time. Video of the talks and fireside chats will be posted at a later date.

Over the last year, Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) have become more visible in our world, with sightings on the increase and government, academia, and media taking notice as never before. This growing acceptance of a UAP presence, however, foregrounds just how little we understand about these enigmas, the alleged science and technology that make them possible, and what the United States and other governments may have learned about them over the years. We also are only beginning to anticipate the likelihood of a future in which UAP are taken for granted, with all the radical changes to our world and self-understanding that will bring.   More details at the bottom of this page.

Join the Sol Foundation to explore one of the great challenges of our time at our second annual symposium, which will take place November 22-23 at the Fort Mason Center, in San Francisco. Led by some of the most prominent and thoughtful voices on UAP from government, academia, and technology, Sol’s meeting this year reinvigorates the UAP conversation by showcasing new scientific discoveries, proposals for government reform, ideas for social action, and visions of technological innovation.  

Organized by Sol’s board of directors, Dr. Garry Nolan, Dr. Peter Skafish, and Jonathan Berte, the symposium features them as speakers as well as other prominent and new UAP voices, including:

Yoshiharu Asakawa, General Secretary of the UAP Caucus, Parliament of Japan

Dr. Eric Davis, theoretical and applied physicist, Earthtech, formerly the Aerospace

Corporation

Dr. Stephen Finley, Chair of African and African American Studies, Louisiana State University

Rear Admiral (ret.) Dr. Tim Gallaudet, former administrator, National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration

Ryan Graves, Executive Director, Americans for Safe Aerospace

Leslie Kean, journalist and author, UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record

Kirk McConnell, staff member (retired), Senate Armed Services Committee

Eric Schrock, Advisor, Quantum Frontier

This is one of the biggest surprises of the symposium. Who is Eric Schrock?

Eric Schrock is also an advisor to TTSA, a member of the Air Force Scientific Advisory Board, as well as Deputy Director of Technology Development for Skunkworks.
