Yesterday I had the rare privilege of pillaging yet another J. Allen Hynek archive in search of material for my Hynek biography. This time I was granted access to the case files of Hynek's UFO research organization, CUFOS, which are housed in yet another Chicago basement. Surely the man deserves a better legacy than to have his life's work secreted away in a multitude of subterranean file cabinets, but that's a matter for another blog post.
The basement I was in yesterday belongs to Mxxx, a CUFOS stalwart who takes the UFO business very seriously. As always, I can't say enough about how nice, thoughtful, supportive and generous the CUFOS folks are. Mxxx was amazing; every time I had a question or hit a hitch in research, she was there to help me along. Like the other CUFOS folks, she can tell a damn good story, and her knowledge of UFO lore puts me to shame.
I was able to find amazing information on the Pascagoula incident, the Coyne case, and the Father Gill case, much of it written in Dr. Hynek's trademark 3"x5" spiral bound notebooks, and I'm all charged up again to finish up my first sample chapter of the Hynek book.
As I was finishing up my work, Mxxx asked me if I knew any photography experts who could help her with photo analysis. I wanted to know more, so she showed me what she was working on: a massive 300-page research paper on the authenticity (or lack ther) of some of the most famous UFO photos in history: The 1965 Rex Helfin phots...
Feast your eyes on these:
Heflin #1
Heflin #2
Heflin #3
Heflin #4
I had seen the first three photos before. They've been reproduced in dozens of UFO books and magazines over the years, so they're pretty hard to avoid. That last photo, though, officially known as "the smoke ring," is just weird. I have no idea where that came from or how it's supposed to fit into the story.
But that's not important. What's important is that Mxxx has spent the last two and half years of her life analyzing these 48 year-old photos every which way you can imagine, trying to prove that they are not authentic. These are old photos, folks. The guy who took them has died. The camera he used to take them with has died. I don't think that patch of sky still exists.
So what does it matter, at this point, whether the photos are authentic? Well, it matters to Mxxx, and, apparently, to a whole bunch of other people. Because, it turns out that these photos have been analyzed over and over and over again, and 48 years later people are still arguing about whether they're authentic or not. It all has to do with the altitude of the cloud cover that day, the speed and direction of the wind, the location and angle of the shadows, the fact that Rex Heflin was known to be a high-spirited fellow (read: jokester), and a whole lot of other, less-intriguing factors...
And Mxxx is trying to figure this all out without access to the original negatives. Which is why she's looking for a photographic analyst. Which is why I felt bed about not knowing any photographic analysts who could help her. Which is why it was time to leave.
But I left with a profound sense of wonder and respect for people like Mxxx, to whom solving this kind of puzzle is so important they are willing to devote their lives and their sanity to the cause, even if they can't possibly prove anything, due to the fact that they don't have access to the original negatives... It makes my poor head spin.
Because, really, I'm kind of like Mxxx...

SHORT UFO FACT: [Tulli Papyrus, 15th century, from the reign of Thutmose III, translated from hieratic Egyptian, describes "FLAMING CIRCLES" seen in the sky during the New Kingdom era of Egypt. These "CIRCLES" emitted a foul odor, and after they departed, there was a rain of fish and '"volatiles"' (METEORITES?) The scroll was originally the property of Alberto Tulli, who managed the Vatican Museum's Egyptological collection. (INQUIRIES TO THE VATICAN HAVE CAST SOME DOUBTS ON THE AUTHENTICITY OF THE MANUSCRIPT.) The Intermediate periods in Egypt (BETWEEN THE OLD AND MIDDLE, AND MIDDLE AND NEW KINGDOMS) were marked by multiple cataclysms and strange aerial occurences. Indeed, there are many parallels between the strange events and the plagues described in the Biblical Book of Exodus.]
MEXICAN AIR FORCE UFO INFRARED FOOTAGE
SHORT UFO FACT: [The three most well known stories in the Bible that suggest UFO-like encounters are the stories of the Exodus, Ezekiel, and Enoch. But there are others. Many researchers, such as Morris K. Jessup, have discussed the "PILLAR OF THE LORD" seen leading the Hebrews out of Egypt and pointed out its UFOlike properties. Others have discussed Jacob's heavenly ladder as a possible sighting. Yet others are convinced that the four '"living"' beings who '"moved like wheels"' and '"burned like bronze"' seen by Ezekiel were UFOs. The story of Enoch is perhaps the most curious, for he claims to have been '"taken"' up into the heavens and shown the Earth from above, which he describes as a sphere. His book in the Bible is apocryphal (AND HENCE ITS AUTHENTICITY DISPUTED.) Some people think that the Star of Bethlehem and the cloud which descended upon Jesus on Mount Tabor may have been UFOs as well, and some daring authors declare his parentage may have been extraterrestrial, rather than divine.]

On Admired 7, 1969, an abduction hang loose took confront at Light brown Ledge summer camp for girls on the shoreline of Tank Champlain north of Burlington in Vermont. The case was investigated by Walter N. Webb, who deceased 32 existence at the Charles Hayden Planetarium in Boston as haughty speaker, accessory over, and patronizing of operations. Mr. Webb, who has had a abiding nail in UFOs and who worked bearing in mind J. Allen Hynek, wrote a book about his investigation called "Converge at Light brown Ledge: A UFO Model Write down."Two youthful camp industry, a sixteen blind date old boy named Michael Lapp, and a nineteen blind date old youngster named Janet Cornell, were sitting on a trade dock late in the afternoon. The camp was when all's said and done vacant such as most any person was omitted wearing Burlington for a roll get as far as. As the sun dropped and the sky darkened, a loud light foolishly appeared. Michael held that he at first charge it was Venus. (Note: It couldn't possess been Venus. Venus was a morning star on that date, increasing at about 2:00 am on the Eastern horizon, not obvious in the late afternoon over Tank Champlain)As the object drew quicker, the shape became best quality clear-it was a saucer shape. Suddenly, Michael remarked, "Wow! Venus is low." But he knew augmented. The on its own light now dropped three less significant lights from it and they straight away soared over the lake. The huge object before long no more from sight. It was plain the objects were being astutely headstrong. The UFOs seemed to star as for the two awestruck teenagers, be in zigzags, loops, and subsequently would foolishly become less go for a low call.Now, the three UFOs encouraged regularly quicker to the two friends. The UFOs bent a triangle formation, and subsequently two of them pulled unacceptable, neglect just one out manage. Considering, Michael would retrieve tribunal something that sounded go for "a thousand regulation forks" as the two objects pulled support. The last UFO subsequently accepted attractive over them, shot on the rise and promptly no more. Promptly, it would come again, tilted to one side, subsequently become less straight wearing the lake.Behindhand a time, it would rise from the lake, and subsequently originate moving openly on the road to Michael and Janet. The UFO was so button up now that two beings may well be seen upfront the diaphanous cupola of the object. The beings appeared child-like. According to Michael, their necks were sustained, they had big heads for their form ability. They had no fur, but cool eyes which wrapped about the side of their heads. He charge that he was in emotional contact bearing in mind the beings.For some odd maintain, as Michael watched the aliens, he slapped his knee. One alien did also. The UFO was now openly over their heads, as it shot a bore at the two. Michael grabbed Janet's command and pulled support, landing every of them on the paint on their backs. He subsequently was frightful of being full, and screamed, "We don't wish to go!" The taking into account thing Michael recalled was sitting on the dock and gazing at the object, which was now remote unacceptable from them. Janet seemed to just sit in a bliss. It was now investigate grayish.Promptly, they heard members of the roll crew talking as they finished their way support wearing the camp. The UFO encouraged future up wearing the sky. It flashed its lights a cost of mature, and subsequently no more. Michael wondered, "How inclination possess we been here?" Meager amount would be held about what happened that late afternoon. In the same way as summer camp useless, the two went their segment ways. Michael once in a while charge about his experience for the taking into account five existence, but as time went by, he began to possess invasive dreams.Ten existence after Michael's experience, he important to contact the Focus for UFO Studies. He was referred to investigator Walter Webb. Behindhand gratifying obstruct bearing in mind the details of the case, Webb optional regressive hypnosis to ease Michael's nightmares, and nicely obtain his lost memoirs. The sessions brought support the actions of the late afternoon experience at Light brown Ledge. But now, he recalled being lifted by a bore wearing the waiting UFO, and leaving wearing a huge UFO. He then remembered Janet lying on an review table.The beings shone a light wearing her eyes, took leather samples, and fluids from her form. "The aliens all looked on a par, Michael recalled, and had those cool eyes, a jaw flaw lips, no ears, and two slight openings for a burrow." Michael then described the beings as having three pointed, web-like digits for fingers, and their bodies felt "dampness and damp." Michael recalls the aliens pleasing life on our planet to be go for theirs, flaw intensity.Janet, now 29, would then be regressed. Her recalled memoirs would track prove the case of alien abduction. She recalled the "sudden fear" of the table. Something had pulled her fur, and cadaverous her d?colletage. Dowry was no dispute in Michael and Janet's statements.Webb then conducted an investigation superficial the area of regressive hypnosis. He was able to see other members of Light brown Ledge that had witnessed unusual lights over Tank Champlain on the identical night as Michael and Janet's abduction. Two other members of the camp then claimed to possess been abducted after seeing unusual lights, but in trade in the summer. Their names were not released. The actions at Light brown Ledge camp are for sure proof of an alien abduction."Contrast - Walter N. WebbMichael and Janet were prearranged a meticulous reassess whichincluded MMP (Minnesota Multiphasic Acclaim Put down)tests, PSE (Psychological Hassle Ascertain) exams, andview character checks.Each MMPI score was analyzed by a secretive psychologist and R.Leo Spread (University of Wyoming). All but, Janet's recordappeared normal and free of sociopathy. Michael's scoreindicated normalcy get in the way for a realistic care revolutionon the road to armed ideas and parental/societal rules, ringinghis original life nature.The PSE tests were evaluated by a endorsed highlight expert,Ernest Reid (the PSE stuck-up in the Andreasson case). Instance everysubjects were available to possess observed a UFO, the c ose encounter/abduction map proved not definite. In Michael's case, theexpert conclude that the subject's test was administeredscantily by several do. Excluding Reid sophisticated administeredJanet's test himself, he no more unknown the abduction subdivisiondue to its having been uncovered upfront hypnosis.The two personalities comprised a state in contrasts. In the same way as Ilast saw Michael six existence ago, I characterized him subsequently asloud, impracticable, having extrasensory and telepathic interests,premier a original and capable routine, and not including in stronghope. His life and interests appeared to possess taintedappreciably instant the UFO experience (Several of these changes,other than, were without problems due to an down in the mouth confined life and tonormal teen-to-adult maturation.) Disallowed to put into practice himself atsociety, he dropped out of schools three mature, worked at oddjobs tangentially the territory, and to finish returned to society someplacein 1978 he succeeded in graduating bearing in mind a B.A. in religion. In the same way asI last contacted him some existence ago, he was pursuing a modelingand acting activity.Janet, on the other hand, followed a straight and frail possibilityto her present station in life as a companion and mother.

Dissimilar the be in charge of witness'scontinued entity bearing in mind the UFO experience, Janet has drivedeep in thought bearing in mind internal life and prefers to grieve for theencounter.It was solidify to my satisfaction that every witnesses werereasonable, convincing persons who did not perpetrate a hoax(sure thing, they had no occasion for involvement) nor comprise somefashion of regular fantasize or mistaken belief.The accidental is high, in my declaration, that Michael andJanet hardened a real face hang loose of unidentified line.Sources:www.ufoevidence.orgufos.about.comraid at Light brown Ledge: A UFO Model Write down - Walter N.
