UFO Report:
“The Nuclear Connection Project presents
The Oak Ridge Sightings including
all the Tennessee Blue Book Unknowns”
(NICAP.org)
Quote from the UFO report (the introduction):
“Updated: September 22, 2005:
The evidence for a UFO/Nuclear Connection grows
stronger by the day. Official FBI, CIA, Army and Air Force documents establish,
beyond a doubt, that UFOs have been seen and reported where uranium was mined
and plutonium was manufactured (the Congo, New Mexico, the Oak Ridge,
Tennessee, the Hanford Plant at Washington, the Savannah River facility at
South Carolina). Official reports are on file of UFOs seen where bomb
development took place (Los Alamos, Sandia Base) and where nuclear weapons were
stored (New Mexico: Los Alamos,Manzano Mountain near Kirtland, NM, and Texas:
Killeen Base ant Camp Hood).
This is the third part of that story, the Oak Ridge
and Tennesse Sightings, which we produced to include all the known cases and provided
links to the full report directories and official supporting documents. The
matrix for this chronology is based on a paper NCP-14: Saucers Over Oak Ridge
by one of our NCP staff members, Bruce Maccabee. Where enough information is
not available to produce a case directory, the supporting documents are
provided as temporary directories.
I wish to thank Dan Wilson, one of our staff
researchers, for his fine research into the Blue Book Archives for the supporting
documents in most of these cases. And to Brad Sparks for his re-evaluation of
the Project Blue Book Unknowns which doubled the number of cases that were unexplained, many
of which occurred in New Mexico and other high-security areas such as Oak Ridge
(TN) and Killeen Base (TX) and were used as a checklist. Jan Aldrich provided
documentation on some cases; Richard Hall provided the chronologies and basic
case lists (UFOE, UFOE II); and Jean
Waskiewicz and I created a set of useable databases within the NICAP
Global Sighting Information Database) for the total caseload.

Quote from the Wikipedia article:
“History
The town of Oak Ridge was established by the Army
Corps of Engineers as part of the Clinton Engineer Works in 1942 on isolated
farm land as part of the Manhattan Project.[11] During the war, advanced
research for the government was managed at the site by the University of
Chicago. In 1943, construction of the ‘Clinton Laboratories’ was completed,
later renamed to ‘Oak Ridge National Laboratory.’ The site was chosen for the
X-10 Graphite Reactor, used to show that plutonium can be extracted from
enriched uranium. Enrico Fermi and his colleagues developed the world’s second
self-sustaining nuclear reactor after Fermi’s previous experiment Chicago
Pile-1, the X-10 was the first designed for continuous operation.[12] After the
end of World War II the demand for weapons-grade plutonium fell and the reactor
and the laboratory’s 1000 employees were no longer involved in nuclear
weapons,[11][13] instead it was used for scientific research.[12] In 1946 the
first medical isotopes were produced in the X-10 reactor, by 1950 almost 20,000
samples had been shipped to various hospitals.”

“Section Menu
In recordings by instruments we can cite the
documentary evidence obtained by radars and other sensors of capture. Generally
this type of proof is obtained in the military or traffic control field. A
record of this type becomes even more valid when accompanied by the capture
from several instruments which eliminates the hypothesis of problems in the
equipment or sensor.
The following table presents a compilation of known cases (193) of UFO capture by radars. These cases are all related in the chronology of ufological cases where the sources for the elaboration of this table are listed.

Quote from the article:
“This week I had the opportunity of interview former
Air Force officer Carmon Marano who had been on the staff of Project Blue Book.
How do I know? First, Ben Moss sent me a picture that showed the Blue Book
Staff and he is the lieutenant standing, more or less, behind Hector
Quintanilla. Second, in reviewing the UFO sightings from Minot Air Force Base
in 1968 I found a number of memos for the record that he had written. Finally,
of course, he said exactly that and unlike so many others who have said they
were part of Blue Book, we can actually prove it with him.”

“ ‘OPREP-3’ – A Classified US Military
Reporting Channel For UFO Incidents? – Part 7”
By Paul Dean, 7 November 2016
(UFOs – Documenting The Evidence, Melbourne,
Australia)
Quote from the article:
“In Part 5 and Part 6 of this series, I discussed the
US military and intelligence community’s responses and concerns regarding a
series of provocative UFO events which occurred in the mid–1970’s over United
States Air Force (USAF) bases which were assigned to the Strategic Air Command
(SAC). Previously, in Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3, I looked the US military’s
OPREP–3 reporting system which was one of the methods used to alert top–level
military commands and components of these, to put it mildly, unusual events. In
Part 4, I highlighted a special category of OPREP–3 reporting which was
explicitly designed for the North American Aerospace Defence Command (NORAD)
and Aerospace Defence Command (ADCOM), to report general unknown radar tracks,
and, ‘Unidentified Flying Objects – UFOs.’ In summary, what started out as a
dialogue about UFO’s being reported by the OPREP–3 reporting system, has
expanded into a much wider appraisal of myriad declassified documents which
deal with UFO case investigation, evaluation and high level concern long after
the US government apparently gave up on the UFO issue.
In this Part 7, I will continue to focus on
declassified records released by the Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) and the
National Military Command Center (NMCC). The release of these records came
about due to the once–powerful Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), or, rather,
its implementation by researchers Barry Greenwood, Robert Todd, Lawrence
Fawcett, Todd Zechel and others.”

“FAB Persegue UFOs em Anápolis”
(“FAB Chases UFOs in Anápolis”)
By Jackson Luiz Camargo
(Portal Fenomenum, Brazil)
The whole translated article (by Google Translate):
“Introduction
“Introduction
In April 1982, another UFO is captured by Aeronautics
radars. The event occurred on April 28, 1982, just 79 days after the famous
VASP Flight 169 case, which occurred on February 8 of the same year.
The incident began around 10:30 p.m. when unidentified
signals began to appear on the radar of Anápolis Air Base. They moved between
the radial 080/110 degrees, with an approximate bow of 290 degrees. These
characteristics led the controllers to believe, at first sight, that it was a
helicopter squadron. Due to the approaching movement of these objects, the
controllers informed Lieutenant Alves, who in turn informed Lt. Daltro that he
was the chief of the Military Flight Operations Center (COpM).
Two FAB (Brazilian Air Force) fighters that have
already met in training flight were sent to identify the origin of the signals.
After a while, the pilots spotted one of the bright objects over the Anápolis
region. The pilots approached the strange object that suddenly wiped out its
lights, causing loss of eye contact. With the loss of visual contact the pilots
returned to the base and later could observe the anomalous signals captured on
the radar. These targets continued to emerge between the radius 080/110
degrees, disappearing between the radials 260/290 degrees.
Shortly after, two other pilots took off on a training
mission. Before proceeding to their training maneuvers they were assigned to
check the origin of the signals. This time there was no visual counting, but for
a short time there was registration on the aircraft radars. Later, at the end
of the training, one of the pilots was approaching runway 6 when he was alerted
by the controller that there was an unidentified target on the radar at 12 o’clock.
At this moment the pilot spotted a luminous object whose light oscillated. The
strange object and the hunt were at 4800 feet of altitude. As the hunt was very
close to the strange object, the pilot maneuvered to the right to avoid a
possible collision. During the maneuver the pilot had the impression that the
object also performed a maneuver to the left. After the maneuvers the object
moved away from the hunt. All the movement was registered by the radars of the
Air Base. Later, one of the base flight controllers observed, through
binoculars, the presence of a yellowish, static object in the sky. The
controller informed the other flight controllers that they could also observe
the strange light for an approximate period of 3 hours.
The next day, the records of the strange object
continued the next day when a new radar contact was obtained by the COpM, this
time appearing in the radial 210 degrees. The TABA radars recorded nothing.
Around midnight, they were also picked up by TABA. Due to the strangeness of
the signals captured by the two centers, the COpM displaced two F-103 fighters,
which made a training flight to verify the nature of the signals that were
present in the South-Southwest sectors of Anápolis. The pilot did not obtain
visual or radar contact with any aircraft.”

TV Globo reports about a UFO incident that was registered
on CINDACTA radar.
Wikipedia article: “CINDACTA”:
Quote from the Wikipedia article:
“The air traffic control centers of Brazil are known by the acronym CINDACTA, or Centro Integrado de Defesa Aérea e Controle de Tráfego Aéreo (Integrated Air Traffic Control and Air Defense Center). Four CINDACTAs are in operation, located in four different cities and each responsible for different regions of Brazil’s airspace.
The use of military air traffic controllers for civilian traffic is not unusual, but has been deprecated in most developed countries. In the US, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) operates a wholly parallel system with that of the US Air Force and NORAD. This is also the case of Eurocontrol and each of its member nations’ air defense systems. Brazil’s use of an integrated command poses some unique challenges to the government. As members of the military, controllers are not allowed to form unions (such as the case of NATCA in the US) or to strike.”

“SAUCER STORIES”
16 April 1954
(Centralian Advocate, Alice Springs, Australia)

Australia, Canberra, ACT, Australia
The whole article:
“It took the skill of ‘witch doctors,’ and the old men
of the tribe to calm down aborigine Sonny who claims that he was almost swept
from his horse by a ‘flying saucer’ recently.
Further news of the Santa Teresa saucer incident
which took place on March 17 (1954) reached Alice this week, when Mr. Arthur
Pope arrived in town. Sonny, who says a ‘thing’ like a big ball with a tail
flew near him as he rode over a ridge, worked for Mr. Pope.
It is reported that when Sonny, panic stricken and inarticulate,
rode into Santa Teresa, the old men had to work on him for a while before he
could talk.
Mr. Pope says that there seems little doubt that the native
saw something very strange. He points out that the South Australian ‘flying umbrella’
had the same glassy appearance described by Sonny.
Three more reports of strange sky happenings have been
received by the ‘Advocate.’ A brightly coloured object was seen to streak from
the heavens and disappear with a loud report followed by a rumbling noise near Hatches
Creek recently. A visitor at Carmichael’s Tourist Court heard something fly overhead,
low, and at a terrific speed. Another, unconfirmed sighting of a ‘saucer’ has
been reported just south of town.”
