UFO Article (Blog):
“Yes, indeed, BAASS’ AAWSAP
contract did, in part, investigate UAP”

Quote from the article:
“Background

In a blog post dated 12 December 2019, I presented a transcript of an interview dated 28 September 2008, between Las Vegas journalist George Knapp, and Las Vegas businessman Robert T Bigelow. During that interview, Bigelow announced the launch of Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies (BAASS) and outlined the mission for BAASS.

…

Did BAASS work on UAP as well?

1. During the period April 2009 to January 2010 we know that MUFON via its STAR group were indeed sending UAP reports to BAASS.

2. The open literature, reports that BAASS employee Gary Hernandez was investigating UAP reports.

3. The US Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) were referring UAP reports to BASS during the period 2009 to 2012.

4. A BAASS Investigator/Security Officer wrote that he ‘Investigated paranormal activity.’ Plus two security officers employed by BAASS in September 2010, did tours of duty at Robert Bigelow’s NE Utah range, where a range of paranormal activity was described by these two employees.

5. One August 2009 employee in his list of duties, speaks of ‘Perform field measurements collecting data regarding ionizing radiation as well as performing chemical/metal/soil and spectrum analysis across the United States...’

This work could be argued to be that of researching physical trace evidence associated with UAP.

6. Lastly, but most importantly, former Senator Harry Reid, who instigated the AATIP/AAWSAP says that AATIP studied UFOs. In a tweet dated 8 December 2019, Las Vegas journalist George Knapp cited former Senator Harry Reid as recently stating:

‘AATIP was my program. One can say whatever, but the truth is it was for only one purpose - to study UFOs.’

7. Based on the above, I can see two possibilities. Either BAASS was simultaneously running with the AAWSAP contract, and also conducting its own UAP investigations; or the AAWSAP work did indeed involve researching UAP. On the basis of what I have learned, I suggest that the latter is true, which is contrary to recent statements from Pentagon spokesperson Susan L Gough.”

“The Bigelow Foundation –
UAP, abductions and more”


By Keith Basterfield, 22 May 2020
(UFOs – scientific research, Campbelltown,
New South Wales, Australia)

Quote from the article:
“Introduction

The earliest incarnation of Robert T. Bigelow’s public interest in UAP, and other diverse topics, was The Bigelow Foundation.

Recently, Angela Thompson Smith, PhD, appeared as a guest on Erica Lukes’ radio show ‘UFO Classified.’ Angela worked at The Bigelow Foundation between October 1992 and April 1994. She was kind enough to send me a copy of a report she prepared on her time with the Foundation. This report appeared in the 4th Annual Crash Retrieval Conference Proceedings, 2006, Las Vegas, Nevada, pp 193-205.

There is much fascinating material in the report, but for the purposes of this blog post I will extract the relevant parts concerning UAP.”

UFO Article (Blog):
“Jacques Vallee on the National
Institute of Discovery Science”


By Keith Basterfield, 19 May 2019
(UFOs – scientific research, Campbelltown,

Quote from the article:
“Background

Given the recent interest in the activities of Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies (BAASS) and its involvement in the Defense Intelligence Agency’s Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program (AAWSAP) between 2007-2012,  some people are still unaware that Robert Bigelow, Las Vegas property developer, had previously operated a similar organization, interested in both the subjects of UAP, and the paranormal.

Bigelow’s National Institute of [sic] Discovery Science (NIDS) operated between 1995 and 2004. Via the Wayback Machine on the Internet it is still possible to explore some of the NIDS (now defunct) website.

With the January 2019 release of Jacques Vallee’s latest book ‘Forbidden Science: Volume Four’ there is an opportunity to gain some insights into the thinking of Robert Bigelow, and his NIDS, and hence into the BAASS operated AAWSAP.”

UFO Article (Blog):
“AATIP, BAASS, AAVS, UAPS & UFOs -
a tipping point?”


By Bill Chalker, 1 March 2018
(The OZ Files, Sydney, Australia)

Quote from the article:
“Because the Australian Ufologist sadly ceased print publication my column ‘Science and the UFO Controversy’ did not appear in print form. Ufologist editor Robert Frola had prepared the final issue but circumstances led to the decision to cease publication. Robert has kindly provided a PDF version of that final copy. So here is my final column for the Ufologist magazine.”

Quote from the transcript article:
“There’s not a lot of long-form interviews available where Bigelow discusses UFOs and/or paranormal subjects so I decided to transcribe this one from Bigelow’s appearance with Art Bell on the March 17th, 2007 edition of Coast to Coast AM.”

“The History Behind the Pentagon’s UFO Program”


By Alejandro Rojas, 7 May 2019
(OpenMinds.tv/Open Minds UFO Radio, Tempe, Arizona)

Video text (YouTube channel):
“Open Minds UFO Radio: In this episode, we review the confusing and complicated timeline of how the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) UFO project got started, how we found out about, and the history of some of those involved. To really understand AATIP and all of the news coming at us about it, we have to understand this vital background. This includes why and how rockstar Tom DeLonge is involved, who Robert Bigelow is, the paranormal background of Dr. Hal Puthoff, what AAWSAP is and how it was taken down, AATIP’s relation to BAASS and TTSA, and much much more. We will not be interviewing Lue for a little while yet, but covering this background will make you all ready for it.”
