ETs Live Among Us Says Ex-China Foreign Ministry Official
Rosanne Lin - Shanghai Star - ChinaDaily.com, 7-20-2002
Considering the recent rash of UFO sightings over China, it is worth noting the opinion of Sun Shili, a retired foreign ministry official who is now president of the Beijing UFO Research Society - he believes waixingren (extraterrestrials) are living among us. R

Response to NASA's James Oberg's Analysis of STS-48 Video
Michael Bara, Lunar Anomalies Homepage
Several years ago, NASA employee James Oberg apparently wrote via E-mail an extensive rebuttal of Richard C. Hoagland's analysis of the STS-48 video. This rebuttal has made the rounds of various web sites and newsgroups, and has been used as an example of the supposedly "faulty" nature of Hoagland's research. As near as I can tell, this rebuttal has gone completely unchallenged. After a quick perusal of Oberg's letter, I felt it was drastically flawed on several points. The following is my response to Oberg's rebuttal. R

Chronology of Anomalous Events during STS-48 Shuttle Mission
Vince Johnson, Houston UFO Network
After personally reviewing the video of events, some of which were obtained from the official NASA video archive, I can only surmise that the events are indeed anomalous and unexplained. The official NASA explanation of ice and debris seems unlikely due to the different directions and speeds the objects appear to be traveling. The following is a chronology of the anomalous events of STS-48 R

The video sequence was picked up live by a number of amateurs who were directly monitoring the transmissions. The material has been shown in news broadcasts and circulated amongst UFO researchers worldwide. R

The Gemini 11 UFO Sightings and Photographic Analysis
Dr. Bruce S. Maccabee
This presentation is a combination of two papers with extensive documentation and analysis in the appendices. The first paper ("On the Probable Misidentification of an Object Sighted by the Gemini 11 Astronauts") was written in 1975. It shows that images of the object that appears in the photographs taken September 13, 1966 from the Gemini 11 spacecraft and the verbal testimony of the astronauts are not consistent with the claim by NORAD that the object was the Russian Proton 3 satellite (and its booster rocket) at a distance of 450 km.

Astronaut Encounters
Space 2001
For obvious reasons astronaut encounters with UFO's fall into the very highest category of sightings. Precious because - rightly or wrongly - the credibility factor means one astronauts testimony is probably worth around ten thousand of anyone else's. In effect we have here a category of person trained to the highest standards; modern space travellers who presumably must be the best equipped witnesses to recognise someone else's space vehicles, even those from the depths of the universe.

Have US Astronauts Seen UFOs?

Has this nation’s spacefarers confronted the unknown in space? The answer is a resounding “yes”. The problem is that the mass media usually fails to widely distribute any such experiences.
