There is much food for reflection in this trio of posts. In the first one, Rich Reynolds surveys the diverse and often-goofy field of current-day ufology and finds the study moribund. He follows up with a critical suggestion for improvement in Forever Unsolved [UFO] Mysteries?. Reynolds asserts that research of “classic” UFO cases is superficial […]
We have more than a passing interest in the subject of “Ancient Astronauts.” Perhaps in this particular case, we should use the term “Enlightenment Astronauts”. For here is a fascinating woodcut image of something that looks to be a good rendering of a flying UFO. However, one commenter gives a more likely interpretation, supported by […]
Some UFO buffs believe that ETs have been watching us seriously since the beginning of the nuclear age because they are concerned that earthlings might export their favorite pastime, tribal warfare, onto the big galactic stage. Rich Reynolds scoffs at this idea, and questions whether any atomic explosion would even register in some laboratory in […]
Rich Reynolds reevaluates his past habit of dismissing context when examining UFO evidence, now viewing context as a very relevant, albeit complicating factor in researching the UFO phenomenon. We wonder what sort of context he would place this next report: Aliens From Newly Discovered Planet Proxima-B May Be Here. Physicist Dr. Barry Warmkessel has exhaustively […]
People die all the time, but why does the Grim Reaper haunt saucer chasers more than civilians? What kinds of secrets are being kept to motivate the U.S. Government to ice those who dare to ask questions. Rich Reynolds touches upon these questions, and with a forthcoming book here’s hoping someone in the higher echelons […]
Is it just us, or people in general become a tad too pessimistic in their approach to the paranormal? For instance, a man waiting for a plane was approached by a woman he did not know, informed of the good work he had done in this life, and proceeded to freak out and assume this […]
Rich Reynolds digs deep into both Freudian psychoanalysis and Nick Redfern’s book Women in Black, the female alternative to Men in Black. Rich (and Nick) reckon something sexual lies beneath the (apparently male) experience of seeing WIB. But let’s face it girls, we know that there’s nothing sexier than the little black dress, right? (LP) […]
No, it’s not April 1st, but Rich Reynolds throws open the idea that, because a new book about bird behavior credits them with many abilities, this somehow equates to them possibly having come from another planet. Admittedly they fly, do represent a threat to air safety, and have been known to damage paintwork on cars, […]
Whether UFO or UAP, this post decries a need to ignore the naysayers and keep on investigating. We may not know what precisely is going on, but we definitely know THAT it is going on. For example, this Utah witness recounts UFO encounter near military base. Three witnesses on a mountain pass does not equal […]
A rebirth of interest in ufology is possible, according to Rich Reynolds, if we are willing to put behind us the tired stories and stonewalled incidents of the past and move forward with a clean slate. Even better, we can change the direction of our investigation from reporting old information to looking for the one […]
