(STARpod.us) -- Controversy has exploded onto the Internet following a contentious episode of Jesse Ventura's TruTV program "Conspiracy Theory" exposing high strangeness at aerospace entrepreneur Robert Bigelow's Skinwalker Ranch.
At issue: a rumor of a battle with extraterrestrial aliens passed on by physicist Dr. Jack Sarfatti, based upon a story he was told by a "mysterious French woman" Sarfatti has now identified as Antoine Gigal.
In the 1990s, Bob Bigelow funded UFO investigations under a group he founded called the National Institute of Discovery Sciences, also known as NIDS.
Among the many investigations conducted by NIDS was the mysterious case of the so-called Bigelow Skinwalker Ranch in a remote region of Utah, where a variety of paranormal phenomena had been reported.
"According to Sarfatti's account, the French woman "claimed an actual gun battle at Bigelow Ranch with Bob's paramilitary against aliens out of the wormhole with dead and wounded humans. She was very convincing and Nick Cook heard the strange tale at his private London Club with me and another witness. I debriefed Kit Green and Ron Pandolfi soon after and the story caused a big stir."
"Pandolfi and Green are well known for their interest in unusual phenomena and their history of employment with the CIA. Green confirmed he was the chair of the NIDS science board during the ranch investigation."
"I was asked by the 'CIA' not to pursue the story in 2004, but now Bigelow has (allegedly, it seems) opened Pandora's Box on the story."
The story of an alien invasion was the latest in a series of odd claims about paranormal events haunting a remote ranch in Utah.
In his 1997 article for Spirit Magazine, republished on line, Dave Perkins recounts on one hellish incident reported by the previous ranch owner.
"In the summer of 1994, Terry [Sherman] (a rancher and cattle breeder) and his wife Gwen (employed for 20 years at the local bank) had found their dream ranch... The family started noticing "glowing blue balls" moving around the property... Terry described it as "a glass ball about the size of a baseball," which appeared to contain "two blue fluids which intermingled with each other"... the globe retreated and the Sherman's three dogs, after some coaxing, took off chasing it in snarling hot pursuit... They lost sight of the ball and then heard a piercing yelp -- the three dogs did not return... The next day Gwen and Terry found three burned circles in the woods. In the center of each circle, they discovered a greasy blob of what looked to be "shortening or butter"... Feeling that they could no longer guarantee the safety of their children, they decided to call it quits. They would put the place up for sale and leave the hellish ranch. "
The ranch was purchased by Bigelow, the founder of Bigelow Aerospace, a company focused on building inflatable space habitats for the next generation of corporate-backed space explorers.
When Bigelow told the New York Times "people have been killed" by UFOs, Sarfatti resuscitated a tale he had heard at a 2004 meeting in London.
"Why this strange elaborate story? That is the issue whether the events happened or not -- either way... The issue is where did she get her story from? Why spill it to me?" asked Sarfatti. "Who told her about the ranch if it was not [former NIDS consultant] Jacques Vallee as she alleged?"
