French space agency to publish UFO archive
[PRG believes this
is a significant exopolitical development. It's the "other shoe" to
the 2000 COMETA report. It represents another "message" from a
foreign government to the United States that patience with the U.S.
led truth embargo is short.]
PARIS (Reuters) - The French space agency is to
publish its archive of UFO sightings and other phenomena online, but
will keep the names of those who reported them off the site to
protect them from pestering by space fanatics. Jacques Arnould,
an official at the National Space Studies Center (CNES), said the
French database of around 1,600 incidents would go live in late
January or mid-February.
He said the CNES had been collecting statements and
documents for almost 30 years to archive and study them. "Often they
are made to the Gendarmerie, which provides an official witness
statement ... and some come from airline pilots," he said by
telephone.
Given the success of films about visitations from outer
space like "E.T.", "Close Encounters of The Third Kind" and
"Independence Day", the CNES archive is likely to prove a hit. It
consists of around 6,000 reports, many relating to the same incident,
filed by the public and airline professionals. Their names would not
be published to protect their privacy, Arnould said.
Advances in technology over the past three decades had
prompted the decision to put the archive online, he said, adding it
would likely be available via the CNES website
www.cnes.fr.

PRG Supporter Passes
Sadly PRG has lost another supporter from the 2002 independent
congressional campaign in Maryland with the death of Jim Peters on
December 14. As reported by his friend David Lindahl, "Last April he
was riding his bike from Boise, where he had been meeting with the
Governor and top legislative leaders on legislation to introduce
advanced technologies into the marketplace to reduce fuel consumption
and pollution. It was dark and he was on his way to a farm where he
was staying about 10 miles from Boise when a guy about 25 and
intoxicated swerved to the side and hit him at 55-60 mph. He made an
amazing recovery but apparently a clot from one of the surgeries
caused a stroke and took him out. I never met anyone with Jim's
persistence and dedication, truly an amazing guy."
That persistence enabled Jim to gather one of the largest tallies of
the 5000 signatures required to get on the ballot in the 2002
election. He was always positive, upbeat and filled with ideas for
how to make things happen. The other loss from the 2002 crew is
Wesleyan graduate, Peter Morgenstern-Clarren. Both made some history
that fall and will be missed. |
