The US Government’s Cash-Landrum UFO Investigations



The US Government’s Cash-Landrum UFO Investigations

     The 2017 disclosure of the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) renewed interest in the US government’s post-Project Blue Book investigations of UFOs. The Cash-Landrum incident of December 29, 1980, occurred about ten years after the Air Force study of UFOs came to an official close. Documents prove that there was an official interest in the Cash-Landrum case, so it provides a perfect subject to use in a search for evidence of further UFO investigations by government agencies.

There were several known official inquiries into the Cash-Landrum case, from the local level to the federal government. Some are well-known, while there are others that are virtually unheard of. We’ll look at them all, and provide sources for further information.

The $20 Million Cash-Landrum UFO Story

The $20 Million Cash-Landrum UFO Story

      The Cash-Landrum UFO case publicity made a splash in 1981, but had a second wave starting in 1983 after the filing of the lawsuit against the US Government for 20 million dollars in damages. The suit stuck to the details of original incident, avoiding later embellishments such as the legend of the scorched road being removed and replaced by men in unmarked trucks.

Despite the resolve of Betty Cash and Vickie Landrum, there was not sufficient evidence to take the case to trial, and as attorney Peter Gersten later revealed, it was a bluff:

NASA Says "It's Just a Rock," in Response To Alien Life-Form Lawsuit

NASA Says "It's Just a Rock," in Response To Alien Life-Form Lawsuit

NASA Says "It's just a rock" in Response to Lawsuit Alleging Fungal Alien Life-Form Was Overlooked on Mars

    Earlier this week, a man decided to sue NASA, alleging that the space agency had failed to properly investigate an object found on Mars, which mysteriously appeared in front of the Opportunity rover. NASA had concluded that the object was a rock, but self-described scientist Rhawn Joseph claims in his lawsuit that they did not properly examine the object to conclude that it was indeed a rock, and insists instead that it is a fungal form of alien life. Bob Jacobs, a spokesman for NASA, issued a statement responding to the lawsuit, in which he reiterates the space agency's position that the object is simply a rock.

Jacobs issued the statement to Popular Science, which read:

"This is an ongoing legal matter and we are limited in what we can discuss about the filing. However, NASA has been publicly sharing our ongoing research into the rock dubbed “Pinnacle Island" since we originally released the images from the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity earlier this month. The rock, which NASA is studying to better understand its chemical composition, also was widely discussed during a Jan. 22 NASA Television news conference. As we do with all our scientific research missions, NASA will continue to discuss any new data regarding the rock and other images and information as new data becomes available."

So pretty much, NASA is standing by their research and contends that the rock is a rock and that there is no big cover-up designed to hide alien life on Mars from us Earthlings. . . .

NASA Sued for Failing to Investigate Alien Life

NASA Sued for Failing to Investigate Alien Life

By Jason McClellan

     The plaintiff in a new lawsuit accuses NASA of failing to properly investigate an object on the Martian surface that he believes is alive.

In mid-January, NASA’s Opportunity rover photographed a mysterious object on Mars that had not been there when Opportunity photographed the same location just twelve days prior. Dr. Rhawn Joseph filed a petition for a writ of mandamus in a federal court on Tuesday, January 28 in which he requests that NASA “perform a public, scientific, and statutory duty which is to closely photograph and thoroughly scientifically examine and investigate a putative biological organism.”

NASA has already inspected the mysterious object. And as Popular Science explains, “For the record: NASA has identified it as a rock. A very special rock, with rare properties, even. But definitely a rock.” The organization believes this rock was simply kicked up by the rover.

However Joseph disagrees with the rock explanation. It is his belief that the “rock” was in that location the whole time. It just took time for it to grow enough to become visible to the rover. Joseph asserts in the suit that “The refusal to take close up photos from various angles, the refusal to take microscopic images of the specimen, the refusal to release high resolution photos, is inexplicable, recklessly negligent, and bizarre.” . . .

AREA 51: U-2s, UFOs and Operation Blue Book – Recent Declassified CIA Documents

U-2's, UFOs, and Operation Blue Book –  Developing The U2   (1992)

By Frank Warren
The UFO Chronicles
8-17-13

     News of recent de-classified CIA documents obtained via FOIA by the National Security Archives has gone viral, both in social media and with mainstream news venues.

The common thesis of the MSM reports is that the documents, or more accurately a lengthy report entitled The Central Intelligence Agency and Overhead Reconnaissance: The U-2 and OXCART Programs, 1954-1974 has revealed something “new” i.e., official confirmation of the biggest OPEN secret in the world—the existence of the Top Secret Area 51; at the same time the MSM is highlighting the omission of UFOs, aliens etc., being mentioned in said report, thus pooh-poohing any possibility of such claims. Both proclamations are demonstrably false (see below).

Unofficially, the knowledge of the existence of Area 51 has been known for decades and has been the focus of mainstream media attention in the past and not just in passing I might add; for example, the training for the rescue of our American brethren held hostage in Iran back in the ‘70’s was practiced at Area 51 and later revealed by the MSM.

Then, President Jimmy Carter (by default) would have his name melded with Area 51 along with the unfortunate failure of the rescue mission; the latter of course would far over shadow the fact that the training took place at the (so-called) secret location.

Almost 15 years later, President Bill Clinton would sign a Presidential Determination, exempting “the Air Force’s operating location near Groom Lake, [Area 51] Nevada from any Federal, State, interstate or local provision respecting control and abatement of solid waste or hazardous waste disposal . . ..” This action was precipitated by a lawsuit of then current and or former civilian employees (or widows) who worked at Area 51 and were exposed to very harmful toxic fumes in performance of their duties, which later caused major health issues and in some instances—death!

The common consensus is President Clinton gets credit for the “official” confirmation re the existence of Top Secret Area 51 (September 29, 1995). Moreover, Clinton, during a speech at Hong Kong in ’05 stated:
". . . there was also a site in Nevada where people were convinced that the government had buried a UFO and perhaps an alien deep underground because we wouldn't allow anybody to go there. And uhm… I can say now, 'cause it's now been released into the public domain.... This place in Nevada was really serious, that there was an alien artifact there. So I actually sent somebody there to figure it out."
In the final analysis the media’s attention to this latest episode is much ado about nothing, and only exemplifies their common desire to latch on to a known, attention-grabbing subject, but without giving it the due diligence that is normally a perquisite to investigative reporting.

The following is in chapter 2 of the a fore mentioned report (albeit in error re Project Blue Book).

UFO NEWS | VIDEO | Former Astronaut, Edgar Mitchell and NASA Settle Moon Memento Lawsuit

     SUBURBAN LAKE WORTH, Fla. -- The court battle is over between NASA and a local retired astronaut. Edgar Mitchell was fighting to keep a camera from one of the Apollo space missions. He had the camera for many years, but it wasn't until recently that NASA sued to try and get it back.

Mitchell says the camera probably could have been sold for $80,000 to a collector. Now, the camera will go to the Smithsonian Institution instead. Mitchell has agreed to donate the camera to the Smithsonian in Washington D.C.

The camera was in the lunar module which landed on the moon during the Apollo 14 mission in 1971. Mitchell has had the camera for 40 years and he says he had permission from NASA to keep it.

Recently however, NASA sued Mitchell, saying it wanted the camera back and it was not his in the first place. . . .

     The space shuttle isn't the only old piece of NASA equipment that's making headlines. The space agency has filed suit against Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell in an attempt to reclaim a 40-year-old camera.

A federal lawsuit filed Wednesday in Miami claims that Mitchell, the lunar module pilot and sixth man to walk on the moon, illegally tried to auction off a camera he used during his 1971 lunar mission.

"Defendant Edgar Mitchell is a former NASA employee who is exercising improper dominion and control over a NASA Data Acquisition Camera," NASA alleged in court documents obtained by The Palm Beach Post.

Stan Romanek Threatens Lawsuit

Romanek MUFON Lawsuit
By James Carrion

12-29-09

James Carrion      Stan Romanek called the MUFON Office yesterday asking for MUFON's legal department and the street address where MUFON can be "served" papers. Unfortunately, I wasn't there to get the call.

Seems like the way you get someone to stop pointing out inconvenient facts about your claims is to threaten legal action. So Mr. Romanek, this is a message for you that I won't have to serve through the Sheriff's office or through a demand letter:
  • In a court of law you can't manipulate the facts like you can in the court of public opinion.

  • You have to swear to tell the truth.

  • You have to have your claims believed by a jury of your peers, not by your friends, family, and investigators you are buddies with.

  • You cannot withhold key evidence.
So, Stan, if you think I am going to stop pointing out the problems with your claims by threatening me with a lawsuit, you are sadly mistaken. There is nothing illegal about the truth.

Speaking of which, please feel free to post publicly the video/photo evidence that you have yet to release to the world because I have some world class photo/video experts who are dying to analyze them:
  • All the ORIGINAL videos of your peeping aliens

  • All the ORIGINAL photos that show you with strange "reptilian" eye transformations

  • All the ORIGINAL photos/videos of all of your other otherworldly experiences
I will be happy to give you some space on my public web server to upload them and I will make them freely available to any other photo/video analyst.
