A Spectacular and Extraordinary Thing: Six Exceptionally Strange Close Encounters of the Second Kind.

A Spectacular and Extraordinary Thing: Six Exceptionally Strange Close Encounters of the Second Kind.

by Preston Dennett

Sometimes when UFOs appear, strange things happen. The presence of an extraterrestrial craft can affect people and the environment around them in weird and unusual ways. We call these close encounters of the second kind. These cases don’t receive much attention, but they have volumes to tell us about the extraterrestrial presence on our planet. This video presents six exceptionally strange and unusual extraterrestrial encounters that just might change the way you think about UFOs.

THE DEAFENING UFO. One afternoon in July 1944, two 11-year-old twin girls played in a field outside their home in Vandy, Quebec, Canada, when they saw a golden, disc-shaped craft in the sky. It slowly approached until it was 40 feet over their heads. It emitted a deafening whistling sound and a strange forcefield came out of it, pressing the girls onto the ground. The girls remained glued to the ground for three minutes when the craft darted away. Running home, the girls discovered that they were both profoundly deaf. Thankfully, their hearing returned after a few weeks. Investigators learned that other people in the area saw UFOs around the same time. Perhaps related to the encounter, the twins’ father began to get very sick.

THE GREATEST SHOCK OF MY LIFE. On October 2, 1956, security guard Harry Sturdevant was patrolling a construction company in Trenton, New Jersey, when he saw a brilliant red glowing object approach. In seconds, it was so close that he could hear a hissing noise and smell a noxious odor. It quickly darted away. The encounter affected Harry badly. He collapsed in pain, choking and vomiting from the odor. He soon learned that he had lost his sense of smell and taste, and his hearing deteriorated. He lost work because of the incident. As it was a work-related injury, Harry applied for workers' compensation. In support of his case, there were 2 other sightings on the same night in the same area.

I WAS VISITED. On December 20, 1968, a 5-year-old boy was awakened when a blue-white light filled the bedroom of his home in Juneau, Alaska. He went to the window and was shocked to see a UFO hovering outside his window. He found himself unable to move for 15 minutes as the UFO hung there. Finally, the craft left and the boy found himself with a very strange effect; his hearing became abnormally acute.

THE UFO IN THE COTTON FIELD. One night in August 1973, seven men worked in a cotton field in Gerena, Spain when a brilliant light approached. As it got closer, they saw it was a disc-shaped craft. To their horror, it approached and swooped down mere feet above their heads, causing them to lie flat on the ground to protect themselves. Then the UFO returned and buzzed the men again. For the next few minutes, the UFO repeatedly buzzed the dive-bombed the men before finally flying away. A few days later, one of the men had another encounter.

THEY WANT TO TAKE ME WITH THEM. One night in Autumn of 1977, Denise was waiting at a bus-station in Sussex, England when a dark oval-shaped UFO hovered overhead. She mentally called out to the UFO occupants, to come closer and to her amazement, they did. Denise found herself entranced and felt like the UFO occupants were watching her. Suddenly the bus arrived. Denise later realized she had 20 minutes of missing time. She was physically affected by the encounter and later began having dreams where the alleged ETs had a personal message for her.

A SPECTACULAR AND EXTRAORDINARY THING. On the morning of June 5, 1983, Mario Claretta saw a UFO sitting in the fields by his farm in Varzi, Italy. He alerted his wife and neighbor, both who saw the craft. To their shock, a man raced up to the UFO, disappeared briefly, then darted away. Shortly later, the craft took off, leaving behind weird landing traces in the field. The next day, hundreds of people across Italy reported UFOs.

Close encounters of the second kind are an important category because these cases contain evidence beyond just anecdotal eyewitness testimony. Those who say there is no evidence for simply have not done their homework. Of course there is, and a lot of it. The existence of UFOs has been proven beyond reasonable doubt. The day is coming when all humanity will not only believe in the extraterrestrial presence on our planet but will KNOW it is true.

S4 Papoose Lake Aerial Photo Analysis

In an effort to better understand this activity, I attempted to locate imagery (and metadata) related to the photos in the latest S4 documentary. I came across these two specific shots, which the documentary indicated were taken by a private pilot. These two specific images (and the included original) were very interesting, for obvious reasons.

It its clear based on a preponderance of evidence that something is happening right where Bob Lazar said it would be.

I don't think the anti-Lazar position is defensible any longer.

As past posts on this subject have captured, something significant is going on at Papoose lake.

Update on my Ning Li/ Eugene Podkletnov post (video done)

I previously made a post in here asking about people’s thoughts on Ning Li and Eugene Podkletnov for opinions/research, and wanted to share this video I finished discussing the both of them to get peoples thoughts.

I honestly think this feels like a big smoking gun with the amount of evidence there is that the US has cracked antigravity and had it for decades.

I’d love nothing more than feedback about anything I missed/ didn’t find. I was hoping to find more info on Podkletnov’s connection to Boeing and other MIC companies but wasn’t able to find anything, and was surprised Podkletnov still does interviews to this day.

4th July Disclosure

I genuinely thought we might get a disclosure speech from Trump on 4th July, but now it's looking unlikely. It was obviously very optimistic of me, but do you think that's game over for now?

Professional Debunker Michael Shermer offered to come on The Good Trouble Show. I politely declined. This is why he should be removed from the White House UAP Science Advisory Council and why I will never have him on the show.

The UFO comms Strategy Turning Tide

I’ve noticed that the language that Burleson and Luna have started to use has changed. They used to talk about reverse engineering and the craft. Now they seem to be focused on “Orbs”. I’ve heard the orb story before from official sources at the Pentagon.

It seems that they either drank the controlled disclosure koolaid or they are being told what to say and stay away from X topic.

Grusch is the only one I’ve heard state directly we have crashed craft and reverse engineering program along with biologics.

Maybe it’s nothing but interesting since if they have been read in certain programs they would be under the same restrictions and could not talk about them.

Same thing with Puthoff when Gerb asked him some direct questions he was struggling to respond—maybe age—but I think more likely is they all still have their clearances and are being told what to say.

So the question is who is telling people what to say and when?

"I think we’re property. " Charles Fort 1919. Link to Christopher Sharp interview - mentions reports of competing alien factions under the ocean and on the moon.

Summary: Christopher Sharp discusses the mysterious disappearance of General Neil McCazzlin, potential links to Havana syndrome, and the withholding of advanced UAP analysis from the public. He reveals that former AATIP director Luis Elizondo confirmed beliefs of non-human intelligence on the moon, mentions reports of competing alien factions under the ocean and on the moon, and calls for a presidential executive order granting amnesty to whistleblowers.


Charles Fort - The Book of the Damned,1919

Excerpt:

Would we, if we could, educate and sophisticate pigs, geese, cattle?

Would it be wise to establish diplomatic relation with the hen that now functions, satisfied with mere sense of achievement by way of compensation?

I think we’re property.

I should say we belong to something:

That once upon a time, this earth was No-man’s Land, that other worlds explored and colonized here, and fought among themselves for possession, but that now it’s owned by something:

That something owns this earth—all others warned off.

Nothing in our own times—perhaps—because I am thinking of certain notes I have—has ever appeared upon this earth, from somewhere else, so openly as Columbus landed upon San Salvador, or as Hudson sailed up his river. But as to surreptitious visits to this earth, in recent times, or as to emissaries, perhaps, from other worlds, or voyagers who have shown every indication of intent to evade and avoid, we shall have data as convincing as our data of oil or coal-burning aerial super-constructions.

But, in this vast subject, I shall have to do considerable neglecting or disregarding, myself. I don’t see how I can, in this book, take up at all the subject of possible use of humanity to some other mode of existence, or the flattering notion that we can possibly be worth something.

Pigs, geese, and cattle.

First find out that they are owned.

Then find out the whyness of it.

I suspect that, after all, we’re useful—that among contesting claimants, adjustment has occurred, or that something now has a legal right to us, by force, or by having paid out analogues of beads for us to former, more primitive, owners of us—all others warned off—that all this has been known, perhaps for ages, to certain ones upon this earth, a cult or order, members of which function like bellwethers to the rest of us, or as superior slaves or overseers, directing us in accordance with instructions received—from Somewhere else—in our mysterious usefulness.

But I accept that, in the past, before proprietorship was established, inhabitants of a host of other worlds have—dropped here, hopped here, wafted, sailed, flown, motored—walked here, for all I know—been pulled here, been pushed; have come singly, have come in enormous numbers; have visited occasionally, have visited periodically for hunting, trading, replenishing harems, mining: have been unable to stay here, have established colonies here, have been lost here; far-advanced peoples, or things, and primitive peoples or whatever they were: white ones, black ones, yellow ones—

Made a global tracker dating back to 1910, with news feed and government and scientific releases. Would love feedback on the site! Clouds in my Coffee runs on NUFORC records from 1906 to 2024 and can center on your rough location.

I vibecoded a UFO and UAP sightings globe, bringing in a database of 49,454 NUFORC geocoded reports spanning 1906–2024. They're coded to their locations and dates.

Check the decade timeline at the top for a movement through the history of UFO sightings reports.

And the Near Me feature does a wide, general location (think city/state) to show you local media coverage and official reports keyed to your area.

Is this the Robert Jacobs' UFO video? just saw it on X, might be fake I guess

User maniaUFO shared it on X but looking for Robert Jacobs testimony I saw it had been shared in youtube too a year ago.

EDIT: to be clair, users posting this don't say it is this precise video, I just made the connection

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/afvXW7q18C0

'In his testimony, Robert Jacobs claims that while serving at Vandenberg Air Force Base in 1964, his team filmed an Atlas missile test through a telescopic camera system. According to Jacobs, the footage showed a disc-shaped unidentified object approaching the dummy warhead, circling it, and firing several beams of light at it, after which the warhead appeared to malfunction or tumble. He says the film was later confiscated and that he was told not to discuss the incident.'

Elizondo is squirrelly

So I've been sort of following disclosure from the hearings to present and something has always bothered me about Luis. He always makes an appearance whenever Mr. Grusch does. The kicker is that I can't remember ever seeing them together in an interview and I don't remember Mr. Grusch ever mentioning Luis.

Luis by his own admission is counter intel, didnt want the job, etc. I get why no one trusts him from all the red flags but then I think about his relationship with Harry Reid and it kind of makes sense.

Is Luis motivated by the death of Harry Reid? Should we give him some grace?

Beyond Bizarre: Eight Extraordinary Extraterrestrial Encounters

Beyond Bizarre: Eight Extraordinary Extraterrestrial Encounters

by Preston Dennett

UFO and extraterrestrial encounters are known for their high levels of strangeness. Whether a sighting, a face-to-face encounter with ETs or an onboard experience, each case usually contains unique and unusual elements. Each case adds to our knowledge of alien contact. This article (and video) presents eight cases that illustrate the bizarre high-strangeness of UFO/ET encounters.

CASE ONE: In 1976, Kathleen Teti stepped outside her home in Norristown, PA to an incredible sight. A saucer-shaped craft hovered ten feet above her front yard. The dome atop the craft had huge windows, through which Kathleen could see two gray-type ETs. Even more strange, she saw two humans who had apparently been taken onboard. She was so close, she could see the consoles, chairs, and what appeared to be a red shag rug on the floor and walls!

CASE TWO: In May 1976, Christina Bryant, her daughter and a friend drove late at night on a desert highway outside of Alamogordo, NM. After seeing weird lights overhead, they found themselves on a small dirt road confronted by a strange sight: a uniformed police officer with his cruiser partially overturned in a ditch. The next thing they knew, they were back on the highway missing hours of time. Later under hypnosis, Christina recalled that the policeman was actually an ET, and his cruiser was a landed craft. She and her daughter were both taken onboard.

CASE THREE: On Sep 9, 1976, Bill and Lenda Pecha (and their children) were drawn out of their home in Colusa, CA by a huge craft with blazing bright lights drawing electricity out of the nearby powerlines, causing a power-failure. When the craft came over their house, Bill became alarmed; he could physically feel the electricity coming off the craft. The family ran to their car and drove off in a panic. The UFO chased them all the way to their friend’s house who also saw the object. Meanwhile, other witnesses in town observed the display. A weird after-effect is that the UFO caused a pear-tree which had already borne fruit to blossom again!

CASE FOUR: Florida Malboeuf could hardly believe her eyes when, on Jan 6, 1977, she looked out her apartment window in downtown Montreal, Canada. A metallic, saucer-shaped craft was coming in for a landing on top of the roof of the building across the street. She watched in stunned amazement as two humanoids exited the craft and peered over the edge of the building. After the craft took off, her son went to investigate and found a circle of re-frozen ice on the building-top, along with odd child-sized footprints.

CASE FIVE: On Jun 27, 1977, Edna Owens and her four children went shopping at the local market in the small town of Telford, TN. Returning home, they saw what appeared to be a shooting star. But then it began darting around and soon revealed itself to be a flying saucer. When the object came towards them, they fled into the house and turned off all the lights. The object hovered over the house and began circling it. Frightened, the family fled the house. The daughter got an electrical shock when she touched the car door. The family drove off and the object followed. The youngest daughter became so hysterical, she had to be hospitalized for a week.

CASE SIX: On Aug 6, 1977, Tom Dawson of Pelham, GA left his trailer with his dogs to go fishing at the local pond. As soon as he arrived a saucer-shaped craft dropped from the sky and hovered just above the ground. Tom, his dog and a herd of nearby cattle became frozen to the spot. The craft disgorged a half-dozen short, bald, uniformed ETs who proceeded to talk in a foreign language. Two approached Tom and conducted a weird physical exam. The case went from strange to bizarre when a voice came out of the craft, saying the name of a famous labor leader who had mysteriously disappeared a few years earlier.

CASE SEVEN: On Jan 3, 1979, Meagan Quezet and her son Andre were drawn outside their home in Mindalore, Africa by the barking of their dog, Cheeky. Following him down the street, they came upon a landed craft. Out stepped several humanoid figures. They walked around the craft and appeared startled to see they were being observed. One approached Meagan and bowed in greeting. Meagan said, “Hello!”

CASE EIGHT: In mid-Jul 1988, witnesses at a wild animal reserve in Lugo, Spain were shocked to see a 250-foot-long craft with purple lights hover overhead. Without warning it sent down a beam of light onto a herd of elephants. To their absolute astonishment, 26 elephants rose up the beam of light and into the craft, which darted away.

The above cases show how truly strange and bizarre UFO encounters can be. They show that we are not alone in this universe, and that we still have much to learn not only about ourselves, but about the people we share this universe with. Earth is being visited by a wide variety of extraterrestrials. And the UFO contact experience is far more common than many people realize.
