Public Figures
about UFOs
Archbishop Agobard
"These beings were seen in the Air
in human form, sometimes in battle array marching in good order, halting under
arms, or encamped beneath magnificent tents; sometimes on wonderfully
constructed aerial ships, whose flying squadrons roved at the will of the
Zephyrs..." Agobard, Archbishop of Lyons,
France. ca. 800 AD
Dan Aykroyd
"In my view and in that of millions
like me, there is no question as to the existence in multiple of these advanced
machines and in diverse forms-discs, crosses, wedges, triangles, boomerangs,
cigars, and their respective occupants in various manifestations-greys, blues,
humanoids, reptilians, and Mothmen, etc. The question is not whether they exist
but rather are some of them here to do our species harm or good?"
"I'd like to do a ghost hunting
thing. I'm the Hollywood consultant for mufon.com, which is the mutual UFO
network. "
"There's huge, massive mother ships
going up to the Yukon. They've been filmed and are on video. " Dan Aykroyd, actor and UFO researcher
Muhammad Ali
"If you look into the sky in the early morning you see
them playing tag between the stars." Ali witnessed UFOs on at least two occasions.
Monsignor Corrado Balducci
"We can no longer think... is it true? Is it not true?
Are they truths or are they lies--if we believe or if we don't believe--no!
There are already numerous considerations which make the existence of these
beings into a certainty we cannot doubt."
"Extraterrestrials are not demonic,
they are Not due to psychological impairment, they are not a case of entity
attachment, but these encounters deserve to be studied carefully...By now, at
this point, there are several considerations made with certainty that these
beings do exist. It cannot be doubted. It can also be said...that this phenomena
does exist." Monsignor Corrado Balducci, is a Vatican theologian "close to the pope", who
has been charged with studying reports of UFOs sent in from Vatican embassies
around the world. This quote comes from one of Father Balducci's many
appearances on Italian television.
David Bowie
"They came over so regularly we could time them.
Sometimes they stood still, other times they moved so fast it was hard to keep a
steady eye on them." Bowie allegedly saw UFOs many times while he was growing up.
Sir Arthur Charles Clarke
"Sometimes I think we're alone in the universe, and sometimes I think we're not.
In either case the idea is quite staggering." Sir Arthur Charles Clarke author and inventor, most famous for his
science-fiction novel 2001: A Space Odyssey,
Chuck Clark
"People need to give it some serious thought. Too many
credible people have reported things that are impossible by our understanding of
physics." Clark is an author and amateur astronomer.
Christopher Columbus
"They believe very firmly that I, with these
ships and people, came from the sky, and in this belief they everywhere received
me,
after they had overcome their fear."
Journal of the Third Voyage
Paul
Crouch Sr.
"Could I pose a guess and just say our benevolent
government in an effort to just try and keep us all from getting scarred to
death kinda likes to pooh pooh the whole thing and kinda keep it a kind of
ethereal thing, nonexistent fascination..."
Dave Davies
"Since my interest in UFO's, which goes back like 20 years, I've met a lot of
loonies. You probably think I'm one anyway, but I don't care anymore." Dave Davies is lead guitarist and founder of The Kinks
Marlene Dietrich
"Until they come to see us from their planet, I wait patiently. I hear them
saying: Don't call us, we'll call you. "
Marlene Dietrich, 'Venus,' 1962
Jamie Farr
Mr. Farr reported a strange moving light in the skies
over Yuma Arizona which stopped and hovered over his car for a few moments.
FARR, JAMIE, actor and Emmy nominee for supporting role in the television series
M*A*S*H, who observed a UFO near Yuma, Arizona, in the early 1960s. Farr and his
wife-to-be, Joy, were driving down a deserted road at about midnight when they
caught sight of a light zigzagging across the sky at an incredible speed. It
stopped in mid-air, hovered for a while, then took off again at high speed. The
UFO approached within one hundred yards of the car, then paced it as Farr
maintained a speed of sixty miles per hour. The couple could distinguish a domed
apparatus with a light swinging around its base. The desert sand swirled around
underneath it. Joy, who had read many books about UFOS, suggested that they
should pull over to the side of the road and attempt to make contact. Farr was
frightened and kept driving. Suddenly, the UFO took off at phenomenal speed and
vanished in the distance. Farr, who did not believe in UFOs prior to the
incident, now believes they are spaceships from another PLANET, possibly from
another galaxy.
Joe Firmage
"We have objects in the sky. . .they have been spotted
millions of times worldwide"
"Evolving in a place called Eden is a promising young
civilization. We grow more dangerous yet wiser each day. Teachers have taught us
through the ages. They are watching us now. The Cosmos is their ocean, and they
have been mindful of our need to develop. At what moment in history would these
visitors want us to join them? What will we become when we do? We shall meet
them as the Men and Women of the Earth. And ask them for their Truth." Firmage, founder of USWeb, claims to have had a face-to-face encounter with
an extra-terrestrial.
Case Gilson
"[The Airship] looked like a great black cigar with a fishlike tail....The body
was at least 100 feet long and attached to it was a triangular tail, one apex
being attached to the main body. The surface of the airship looked as if it were
made of aluminum, which exposure to wind and weather had turned dark....The
airship went at tremendous speed. As it neared Lorin it turned quickly and
disappeared in the direction of San Francisco. At half past 8 we saw it again,
when it took about the same direction and disapeared."
Case Gilson. electrician. Reported in the Oakland Tribune, Dec 1, 1896
Jackie Gleason
Gleason got into the President's private car and they
sped off into the darkness - their destination being Homestead Air Force Base.
"I remember we got to the gate and this young MP came up to the car to look to
see inside and his jaw seemed to drop a foot when he saw who was behind the
wheel. He just sort of pointed and we headed off." Warren says that later
Gleason found out that the secret service was going absolutely crazy trying to
find out where Nixon was. "We drove to the very far end of the base in a
segregated area," Gleason went on, "finally stopping near a well-guarded
building. The security police saw us coming and just sort of moved back as we
passed them and entered the structure. There were a number of labs we passed
through first before we entered a section where Nixon pointed out what he said
was the wreckage from a flying saucer, enclosed in several large cases." Gleason
noted his initial reaction was that this was all a joke brought on by their
earlier conversation on the golf course. But it wasn't, as Gleason soon learned.
"Next, we went into an inner chamber and there were six or eight of what looked
like glass-topped Coke freezers. Inside them were the mangled remains of what I
took to be children. Then - upon closer examination - I saw that some of the
other figures looked quite old. Most of them were terribly mangled as if they
had been in an accident." Testimony from Larry Warren, an Airman First Class stationed at Bentwaters
Air Force Base in England a witness to a UFO sighting, Christmas week of 1980,
that Gleason personally relayed to him concerning an incident with then
President Richard Nixon. Gleason also claimed to have seen UFOs over Florida and
London.
Wayne Green
"The more you look into [the UFO phenomenon], and the
more people that you talk to and read about that have done serious
investigations, the more you know that this stuff is real." Green is founder of Byte Magazine, CD Review, 73 Magazine, and over 25 other
successful publications.
Dick Gregory
Gregory claimed that on one occasion he watched a
strange display of red and green lights dancing around in the sky for about an
hour.
Bob Larson
"It was a sticky summer evening. The buzz of heat bugs drowned out all other
sounds. I stood on the front porch, watching swarms of fireflies in their
dazzling display of pyrotechnics. Then it (UFO) appeared, just across the road
and a section's distance of farmland away. It drifted across the eastern
horizon, just above the Kotchswars' barn."
The dim light of dusk prevented me from making a positive identification, but my
childhood imagination filled in the blanks. 'They' were up there in that thing
(UFO), peering down on me! I was sure their telescopes were studying my every
move. I cautiously stepped off the porch into the front yard for a closer look.
Dodging a cloud of gnats, I crept across the lawn. Slowly I moved in the
direction of the object (UFO). It did not seem to be going anywhere in
particular, and I could not see the lights that people identified with such
spaceships. Gradually the object dimmed from view and melted into the darkening
sky."
Bob Larson - Radio Show Talk-Back
John Lennon
Lennon allegedly saw a UFO from his apartment balcony
in New York along with his assistant, May Pang.
Hal Lindsay
"I mentioned this (visitation of the heavenly hosts in Genesis 6:4) in The Late
Great Planet Earth." Hal Lindsay - "The Late Great Planet Earth"
George A. McCalvy
"When [the mysterious light] first appeared it was seen moving rapidly from the
northeast and heading in a southwesterly direction. As it neared the southern
boundary of the city [of Sacramento] it turned directly toward the west and
after passing the city went south, being distinctly visible for upward of 20
minutes."
Deputy Secretary of State, California George A. McCalvy, the San Francisco
Call, November 25, 1896
Sarah McClendon
"The real danger to the U.S. and perhaps this whole planet is the government has
placed such a heavy blanket of secrecy upon this issue. So much secrecy, those
in government who have knowledge showing UFOs are identifiable feel the subject
cannot be discussed by those in the know without serious repercussions. Others
are afraid their friends and co-workers will think they are crazy if they even
so much as insinuate that UFOs are identifiable as manned craft from outside the
earth. This particularly applies to newspaper editors and publishers, reporters
and analysts. Thus the U.S. is denying itself the chance to learn more about
UFOs or to encourage research despite the fact the U. S. stands to gain from
such discussions. . . .Not publicized but true is that the Clinton
administration, soon after coming to office, had many briefings on the subject.
Laurance Rockefeller provided the information for the President and Mrs.
Clinton. Others provided documents and verbal briefings to presidential advisors
Jack Gibbons (science), Bruce Lindsay (personal), Anthony Lake (national
security) and Vice President Albert Gore. About the same time a three hour
briefing was given by Dr. Steven Greer to the sitting Director of the CIA,
Admiral Woolsey. . . .After the Roswell incident, the Air Force replied to
reporters' inquiries that this was all part of research using weather balloons
and other equipment. [Colonel] Corso and hundreds of others who work or have
worked in secret defense and scientific agencies, are willing to swear under
oath that alien craft are repeatedly penetrating our airspace." McClendon, White House Correspondent, and Dean of the White House Press
Corps--exerpts from a press release by her on March 30, 1998.
Bishop John S. Michaud
Raising my eyes...I observed a torpedo-shaped
body, some 300 feet away, stationary in appearance, and suspended in the air
about 50 feet above the tops of the buildings. In size it was about 6 feet long
by 8 inches in diameter, the shell, or covering, having a dark appearance, with
here and there tongues of fire issuing from spots on the surface, resembling
red-hot unburnished copper....this object began to move, rather slowly, and
disappeared over Dolan Brother's store, southward. As it moved, the covering
seemed rupturing in places, and through these the intensely red flames issued."
Bishop Michaud of Burlington, Vermont, as reported in a letter to the Monthly
Weather Review July 2, 1907.
Chuck Missler
"What we do know is that they are real; they show up on radar (multiple radar
simultaneously), they are seen by competent witnesses, thirteen astronauts--not
only have they seen them but some report that they have never been on a mission
without seeing them."
Chuck Missler - The Missler Report
May Pang
"It looked like a flattened cone with a brilliant light
on top." May Pang was an assistant to John Lennon, describing the object they
allegedly saw from Lennon's balcony in NY City.
William Shatner
Shatner claimed to have seen some sort of shining,
shimmering object in the sky while he was pushing his broken-down motorcycle
down a road in the Mojave Desert.
Will Smith
Smith claims to have seen a UFO while driving with a
friend.
Dennis Weaver
"I think there's alot of evidence that we've made
contact."
Jeff Fenholt
"It was...just a big object that went over the top of
us. The newspapers said the next day that police cars chased it."
Bob Larson

Thutmose III
"A circle of fire coming in the sky, noiseless, one rod long with its body and
one rod wide. After some days these things became more numerous, shining more
than the brightness of the sun." Thutmose III (1504-1450 BC) From a series of Egyptian Heiroglyphs on a
papyrus ca. 15th century BC Pastor Chris Ward
"I saw a UFO April 1st, 1997 just 5
days after the Heaven's Gate mass suicide, out front of my home in Leesburg,
Florida. It was absolutely silent, about a football field in length, 1/5 as
wide, black with red lighting. It was shaped like a elongated triangle. It was
traveling very fast east to west about 500 feet overhead. It disappeared in
about 10 to 15 seconds. I was with Rev. Ed Buehler and his wife Carol and my
wife Rita. We watched as the Airforce scrambled to intercept." Pastor Chris Ward - "The Hosts
of Heaven"
