Now
that former CIA officer Chase Brandon has said publicly that the Roswell case
was truly the crash of an extraterrestrial craft, the next big question for
interested Americans and others internationally seems to be “What has happened
in the 65 years since this incident?”
It’s
probably fair to say that the Roswell case is the tip of the iceberg. What else
has gone on since the summer of 1947? What have we discovered? What are
important factors to consider?
There
has been a robust amount of curiosity and inquiry over the years by various researchers,
journalists, creative media producers and others. For most of us though, the
answer is that we don’t really know what’s been discovered or what might be
going on. Yet, we can probably make some educated guesses.
The
Roswell case itself is probably the easiest to figure out in general terms due
to the amount of research and disclosure about it. There are possible or
probable scenarios based on various research and reports.
According to these reports, the
craft and bodies were gathered up from the property where rancher and cowboy
Mac Brazel found the crash debris field. The craft and deceased bodies were
flown to Wright Field in Dayton, Ohio, (now Wright-Patterson Air Force Base) for
examination at the foreign technology evaluation center there under tight
security and secrecy, including a cover story given to the press.
EXHANGE
PROGRAM
Some
researchers claim that one of the four “extraterrestrial biological entities
(EBEs)” was alive. It was given medical attention and held in a secure area.
Efforts were made to communicate with this being to learn more.
According
to some reports based on open-source information available, communication
eventually was established with “EBE-1” with the help of linguistic experts and
we learned much about the “Eben” planet and activities. Some accounts say we
were eventually able to establish communication with EBE-1’s people using
technology aboard the crashed spacecraft and with the help of EBE-1.
In the
following years, we learned more about the technology of the craft, the science
of space travel and other helpful information.
And then there is the related story that is even more amazing: By the
early ‘60s, the idea of an exchange program between Americans and Ebens was underway
and a highly-classified project was in motion. Open-source reports have said
this operation was called Project CRYSTAL KNIGHT.
Allegedly, in
1965, at a secure location in the American Southwest, 12 specially-selected and
highly-trained U.S. military personnel boarded an Eben spacecraft with tons of
supplies and equipment for a proposed 10-year stay on the Eben planet. At least that is the story.
The
mission actually ended up lasting more than 12 years and the U.S. team returned to Earth
in 1978. However, only eight of the personnel returned. Two reportedly passed
on during the mission, one from a medical condition and one from injuries sustained in an accident. Two others chose to remain on the Eben
planet. The
program code name was reportedly changed to Project SERPO after the team
members returned and were debriefed.
We
learned a tremendous amount from the Ebens. We continue to have good relations
with them and consider them friends and allies.
These
are some of the perspectives and accounts out there. Whether these reports are
true, partially true or inaccurate is challenging to determine.
ONGOING
LEARNING
According
to some reports, through learning from the Ebens and other intelligence-gathering,
we established that there were several types of intelligent extraterrestrials visiting
Earth. Not all are as friendly as the Ebens. Their agendas are different.
Over
the past six decades, U.S., and probably international intelligence and
scientific efforts may have been extensive, say some researchers. Defense contingency plans were
developed. Operations were implemented to gather more information on an ongoing
basis. Diplomatic efforts were also in play.
Some
researchers say that we were able to acquire and understand much about the
advanced technology used by the Ebens and probably other types of visitors.
Certain technology acquired this way has been integrated into U.S. aerospace
community, particularly in the defense area, as well as other fields, it has
been alleged.
In
addition to the fairly concrete and straightforward information-gathering about
the Ebens and others, as well as their technology, we learned about various
solar systems and planets. Importantly, we acquired new perspectives on the nature
of the Universe, hidden dimensions, advanced physics, the nature of time and
space, human consciousness and human development.
And,
visitation to Earth by other intelligent beings may have been going on long
before 1947 – possibly for many centuries and even in ancient times and in the
far distant past, according to some theories.
As
early as the ‘50s and ‘60s, it was determined that, at some point, the American
public needed to get acclimated and prepared for this new knowledge about
extraterrestrials. Walt Disney himself was approached to develop a film, and
work on that project was started but then discontinued. It has been claimed that other efforts to
gradually and safely prepare us for this knowledge were implemented.
Public
safety concerns were also considered to be significant. The firefighter
training manual “Fire Officer’s Guide to Disaster Control” is probably one of
the best-known resources for public safety officials to prepare for UFO-related
incidents.
Along
the way, many other situations and sightings involving UFOs have occurred,
sometimes with extensive news media coverage. Some journalists demonstrated
more insight in covering these topics while others were reluctant to tackle these
admittedly sensitive subjects, for various reasons
There
is still much we do not know or do not fully understand at this time.
According to some research, elements
of our defense, intelligence and scientific communities have tried to handle
the situation in a reasonable manner. There may have been mistakes and missteps
along the way.
We may
wonder if, at this point in time, July 2012, the American and international
public is much more prepared psychologically, emotionally and spiritually to
deal with some of these developments. What about our defense and public safety
preparedness?
These
are some of the seemingly valid questions that we can again ask ourselves in
light of the reports about Chase Brandon’s recent comments. And, all of us may
be able to help answer these questions.
