A dramatization of an effort to release decades of repressed files and media about UAPs is a welcome topic. Although the story is fictional, the plot draws on years of real-world effort by those who consider such repression inappropriate. Given the subject's profundity, expectations for a groundbreaking piece of media were high.©The UFO Chronicles. All rights reserved.

34 Government Officials Break 80-Year UFO Cover-Up

The Age of Disclosure  - www.theufochronicles


"The documentary asserts that an extensive, 80-year cover-up has obscured government knowledge of advanced nonhuman intelligence (NHI) and, perhaps more significantly, reverse-engineering efforts involving technology recovered from crash sites."

The congressional screening signals that the once-stigmatized topic of UFOs has transcended the realm of fringe theories and entered the halls of serious policy discussion.

Alien Doc, “The Age of Disclosure” Stuns Crowd

Alien Doc, “The Age of Disclosure” Stuns Crowd - www.theufochronicles.com

"Farah’s doc features 34 senior U.S. Government insiders, including figures in the intelligence and military communities, who claim there’s been an 80-year cover-up of the existence of non-human intelligent life and an arms race between powerful nations to reverse-engineer uncovered technology from these beings."

cheers and guffaws. Yet sometimes, for some films, a festival crowd’s excitement is as precise an indicator for a film’s impact as you need. This was the case here in Austin this past Sunday, when director Dan Farah showcased his doc The Age of Disclosure for the first time ever to a crowd. His film, years in the making in a production that was kept entirely secret, was astonishing in every sense of the word. Being a part of the audience that got to witness the result of this secretive, deeply researched film felt truly special. And terrifying. The Age of Disclosure has a real shot at being 2025’s defining documentary, and could, should start a real, sustained conversation about what seems now an obvious fact—we are not alone.

Air Force Takes Over Films of UFOs

Headline for the article, 'Air Force Takes Over Films of Flying Disks' provided by www.theufochronicles.com - Spokane Chronicle 10-5-1950

"Nick Mariana said yesterday that the Air Force has taken his color movies of two silver disks [UFOs] that buzzed over a baseball park here August 15."

     Mariana said he turned the color films over to the Air Technical Command here [Great Falls, Montana] at the request of a special investigator of the command.

Mariana is the manager of the Great Falls team in the Pioneer baseball league. He said when he saw the disks over the ball park he focused his camera and photographed them.

They appear on the film for about three seconds. He said he was advised by the investigating officials to not release any further information concerning the film.

UFO Story Makes it to the Big Screen

     2018 was a big year for UFO news. It was a year ago this month when the Pentagon admitted it has been secretly studying unidentified flying objects and also released a few videos recorded by military pilots.

The sudden re-emergence of official interest in these unknown aircraft has also resulted in a closer look at older UFO cases and testimony, including one story that started in Las Vegas.

A new documentary film about UFO whistleblower Bob Lazar is out and there's no way I-Team Reporter George Knapp would miss the world premiere.

It was 29 years ago that Lazar came forward, claimed he worked on technology out in the Nevada desert, and suddenly the Area 51 base became known all over the world.

Van Tassel and His UFO-Inspired “Integratron” | VIDEO – New Documentary

     Are we witnessing a renewal of interest in unidentified flying objects? Recent revelations about a secret Defense Department project for studying UFOs continue to draw media attention, while reports of unusual aircraft sightings show up regularly in the news.

Not quite as common these days, however, are stories of individuals claiming to have had contact with extraterrestrials. In his new documentary, Calling All Earthlings, filmmaker Jonathan Berman takes a look back at one of the most famous of these “contactees,” George Van Tassel. The film captures an aspect of UFO belief that often escapes skeptical outsiders—that it wasn’t so much anxiety about alien visitors as enthusiasm and hope that attracted believers to the idea of extraterrestrial contact.

More than 200 people, mostly schoochildren, reported seeing an object hover over the school in an incident that many believe became the subject of an elaborate cover-up in 1966.

Aliens Heading Towards Earth

With a new “Alien” movie about to open,
Scott warns that real ETs “are a lot smarter than we are.”

     In 1979, Ridley Scott presented “Alien,” the first of six films in a series that would continue into 2017. This science-fiction horror franchise has produced nearly 40 years of sequels and prequels, numerous books, toys and video games.

On May 19, the second prequel, “Alien: Covenant,” debuts under Scott’s direction, and not only is he promoting the film, he’s also ― very cleverly ― letting it be known that he thinks aliens really exist and we should fear them.

Drury UFO - Frame of Film 1982

Introduction

      An event which happened nearly 64 years ago, continues to be cited as a visual observation, of an anomalous object, which is supported by a movie film.

At about noon, on 23 August 1953, a Mr T. P. Dury, his wife and young son, observed an unusual object in the sky over Port Moresby, New Guinea. Mr Drury used his movie camera to capture images of the object. Claims have been made that the film returned to Mr Drury had some footage of the object missing.

Technical Note

The intention of section 1 of this paper, is to provide a chronological account, of items about the incident, in the form of direct text quotes, or summaries where items are exceedingly long. Although the chronology is lengthy, it does provide a detailed account of what Australian government Departments, civilian UFO researchers, and other interested parties, have documented about the incident.

In any set of documents, there are inevitable errors. In some cases, the main witness is said to be T. C. Drury; C. T. Drury or T. P. Drury. T. P. Drury is in fact correct. The date of the incident is actually 23 August 1953. However, it is sometimes said to have been 24 August 1953; 23 August 1957; Christmas 1953, or 23 August 1954. The location in at least one document, is said to have been Darwin, although it actually occurred in Port Moresby. The time is generally stated as 12 noon, but in at least once instance is shown as 11 am. There are other inconsistences, which the alert reader will detect.

There are numerous references to the Drury incident, in other UFO magazines; books, and on the internet. However, none of these provide any information, not already provided below, so these have not been cited.

Due to the passage of time, many of the individuals mentioned in this paper are no longer alive. The authors advise the reader, that have not re-interviewed any witnesses to the sighting, given the age of the event. Instead, they feel that there is far more value to utilising the text of sources close to the date of the event. The authors also disclose that they have not been able to view any of the colour film, or any first generation still photographs copied from the film. However, they do cite the opinions of individuals who have done so.

UFOs and Nukes: The Secret Link Revealed
The film presents declassified U.S. government documents and on-camera military witness testimony confirming longstanding and ongoing UFO incursions at American nuclear weapons sites.

     My recently-released documentary film, UFOs and Nukes: The Secret Link Revealed, was licensed by Gaia TV in late July and is now available to the network’s Video On Demand subscribers. As of this date, it is the highest rated video in Gaia’s “Seeking Truth” category.

One viewer commented, “Wow!! Great job by Robert Hastings in this documentary. Thanks for introducing new facts and different angles on some well known and not so well known cases. Tons of indisputable evidence in this one.”

The film presents declassified U.S. government documents and on-camera military witness testimony confirming longstanding and ongoing UFO incursions at American nuclear weapons sites. Since 1973, I have interviewed more than 150 U.S. Air Force, Army and Navy veterans regarding their involvement in still-classified incidents at ICBM deployment sites, weapons storage areas and test ranges.

According to key ICBM launch and targeting personnel—Air Force Captains Robert Salas, Robert Jamison and David Schindele—nuclear missiles in their underground silos sometimes malfunctioned when a UFO briefly hovered above them. Another veteran—Air Force photographic specialist Lieutenant Robert Jacobs—inadvertently filmed a domed-disc UFO using beams of light to disable a dummy nuclear warhead in flight during one missile test, something confirmed by Maj. Florenze Mansmann, who analyzed the film frame-by-frame.

Given the veterans’ dramatic testimony, which is often supported by publicly-available documents, it becomes clear that unknown observers piloting tremendously advanced aerial craft have monitored and even tampered with humans’ deadliest weapons for decades. Indeed, Soviet Army documents presented in the film confirm that the Russians also endured UFO-related disruptions of their missile systems.

Obviously, these revelations are tremendously important and people worldwide should be made aware of them. If you are a Gaia TV subscriber, please watch the film. If not, you can still rent or buy it at Vimeo On Demand. Additionally, CNN’s video of my livestreamed 2010 press conference and several articles relating to the UFO-Nukes Connection are available at www.ufohastings.com.

New Film Claims UFOs Monitored Nuclear Weapons

New Film Claims UFOs Monitored Nuclear Weapons

     Officially, the U.S. government ended its study of UFOs in 1969 because -- it assured the public -- there is no proof the phenomena represents a threat to national security.

But what if these unknown aircraft showed an interest in our nuclear weapons?

A group of more than 150 military veterans, missile officers, and security personnel, including many who worked at the Nevada Test Site, say they've seen mystery intruders over nuclear facilities.

In the darkest days of the Cold War, atomic weapons were routinely exploded above ground at the Nevada Test Site, the most nuked placed on earth.

In 1955, 14 A-bombs were detonated as part of Operation Teapot, witnessed by thousands of military personnel in trenches, and by thousands of test site employees. But there were other observers as well.

"It was what we called flying saucers. They were pretty prevalent at the test site back then," said a former test site photographer.

At least a dozen former test site employees have told similar stories about unknown aircraft showing up hours or days after an atomic blast. ...

Theatrical Premiere of Robert Hastings’ UFOs and Nukes Film
     Robert Hastings’ UFOs and Nukes: The Secret Link Revealed will premiere at the KiMo Theatre in Albuquerque, NM, on Thursday, June 23, 2016 at 7:00 p.m. Admission is $5.00.
PRESS RELEASE

Advance ticket purchase: www.kimotickets.com

The reality of UFO incursions at American nuclear weapons facilities has been convincingly established. Hundreds of U.S. military veterans now openly discuss these ominous incidents and thousands of declassified government documents affirm their assertions.

Over the past four decades, noted researcher Robert Hastings has interviewed more than 150 of those veterans regarding their involvement in one case or another. On September 27, 2010, CNN live-streamed his “UFOs and Nukes” press conference in Washington D.C. during which former U.S. Air Force missileers described occasions when several ICBMs mysteriously malfunctioned moments after a disc-shaped craft was observed hovering near their underground launch silos. The full-length video is available at www.ufohastings.com.

Hastings’ intriguing documentary film, UFOs and Nukes: The Secret Link Revealed, will premiere at Albuquerque’s Kimo Theater on June 23, 2016. Unlike many of the UFO “documentaries” found on network television nowadays, which contain far more speculation than fact, this film rigorously examines the officially-still-hidden history of UFO activity at nuclear weapons laboratories, test areas, storage depots and missile sites—using authenticated files and the testimony of vetted military eyewitnesses.

The evidence presented makes clear that humans’ deadliest weapons have been, since their development and use during World War II, under intense scrutiny by still-unidentified observers. Among the facilities repeatedly visited by UFOs, according to the documents, were the Sandia and Los Alamos Laboratories.

Significantly, documents smuggled out of Russia in the 1990s confirm that Soviet nukes were also the focus of UFO interest during the Cold War era. More recently, U.S. Air Force personnel have alleged a UFO involvement in one large-scale missile-disruption incident in October 2010. In short, the situation is still unfolding.

When asked to explain the purpose of the film, Hastings says, “Public education. Someone possessing tremendously advanced technology has monitored and even tampered with American and Russian nuclear weapons for decades. My view is that UFOs are piloted by beings from another world. These stunning, nearly unbelievable developments must not be kept secret by a handful of government and military officials. We all have a right to know the facts.”

Hastings will answer questions from the audience following the presentation.

The film is also available at www.vimeo.com/ondemand/ufosandnukes.
