UFO Report:
“The Nuclear Connection Project -
The New Mexico Sightings”


Updated: 3 September 2005
(NICAP.org)

Quote from the UFO report:
“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, 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 (Manzano Mountain near Kirtland, NM, and Killeen Base at Camp Hood, TX).

This is a part of that story, the New Mexico Sightings, which we produced to include all the known cases and provided links to the full report directories and official supporting documents. Where enough information is not available to produce a case directory, the supporting documents are provided as temporary directories. This report includes the 209-case La Paz Catalog (known also as the AFOSI Summary of Sightings of Unknown Aerial Phenomena) which is made up primarily of Green Fireball cases in New Mexico, the majority of which are unknowns.

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). His summaries provide most of the compacted detail for many of the cases. The latest major contribution, in the form of a digitized version of the La Paz catalog, was the work of Jean Waskiewicz. The digitized version of the catalog would not have happened at all without the suggestion of Brad Sparks and the acquisition of clean, clear copies of the AFOSI catalog from Jan Aldrich. The AFOSI entries are brief and listed just as they were translated unless the full report documents have been retrieved from the Blue Book Archives. In that case any errors in the 209 case AFOSI Summary will be corrected.

If you have information of an important nature to provide for this report, please contact me at your convenience.

UFO Magazine Article:
“NAVY OFFICER TELLS - HOW
SCIENTISTS TRACKED A FLYING SAUCER”


By Commander Robert B. McLaughlin, U.S. Navy
March 1950
(TRUE, U.S.A.)

Source: NICAP.org

Text by NICAP.org:
“In its January issue TRUE said that the flying saucers are real and interplanetary. Its  story was widely supported by the nation’s press and radio. TRUE’s findings are here confirmed by Commander McLaughlin, a rocket expert at White Sands Proving Ground, who worked independently of this magazine’s investigation. He reveals how a troup of Navy men and scientists tracked a flying disk with a precision instrument and tells of flights he and others witnessed.”

Charles B. Moore, a General Mills meteorologist and balloon expert, and four enlisted U.S. Navy men sighted a fast-flying UFO over the Caballo Dam, three miles north of Arrey, New Mexico (White Sands Proving Ground), on 24 April 1949.

Commander McLaughlin was of the opinion that UFOs were flying in the skies over the United States (realtvufos.blogspot.com).

UFO Paper:
“NCP-12: The White Sands Proof”


By Dr. Bruce Maccabee, 2002 (copyright)
(NICAP.org)

In this paper, Dr. Bruce Maccabee writes about the “green fireball”/unidentified flying object incidents that occurred at sensitive Top Secret nuclear weapon research facilities/
installations in the south western part of the United States during 1948-1950.

It was the areas around Los Alamos, New Mexico; Sandia Base (Kirtland AFB) near Albuquerque, New Mexico; the White Sands Proving Ground (Holloman AFB, Alamogordo) in New Mexico and (after a while) Killeen Base (Killeen, Texas) (a nuclear weapon storage site located at Fort Hood) that experienced the UFO overflights.

U.S. Government UFO Document:
“Objects observed following
MX 776A test of 27 April 1950”


15 May 1950
(Project Blue Book, U.S. Air Force, Washington, D.C.)

Source: NICAP.org

The whole document (not written in U.S. Department of Defense document format):
“2nd Lt. (name censored) EHOSIR

1. According to conversation between Col. Baynes and Capt. Bryant, the following information is submitted directly to Lt. Albert. 

2. Film from station P10 was read, resulting in azimuth and elevation angles being recorded on four objects. In addition, size of image on film was recorded. 

3. From this information, together with a single azimuth angle from station M7, the following conclusions were drawn: 

a. The objects were at an altitude of approximately 150,000 ft.

b. The objects were over the Holloman range between the base and Tularosa Peak.

c. The objects were approximately 30 feet in diameter.

d. The objects were traveling at an undeterminable, yet high speed.”

This Data Reduction report by Wilbur L. Mitchell (Mathematician, Data Reduction Unit) was attached to the 31 May 1950 U.S. Air Force cover letter (realtvufos.blogspot.com) I reported on in the preceding blog post, according to Dr. Bruce Maccabee (nicap.org).

U.S. Government UFO Document:
“SUBJECT: Aerial Phenomena”


31 May 1950
(Project Blue Book, U.S. Air Force, Washington, D.C.)

Source: NICAP.org

The whole document (not written in U.S. Department of Defense document format):
“1. Per request of A. O. Mirarchi, during recent visit to this base, the following information is submitted.

2. Sightings were made on 27 April and 24 May 1950 of aerial phenomena during morning daylight hours at this station. The sightings were made by Land-Air, Inc., personnel while engaged in tracking regular projects with Askania Phototheodolites. It has been reported that objects are sighted in some number; as many as eight have been visible at one time. The individuals making these sightings are professional observers – therefore I would rate their reliaibility [sic] superior. In both cases photos were taken with Askanias.

3. The Holloman AF Base Data Reduction Unit analyzed the 27 April pictures and made a report, a copy of wich I am enclosing with the film for your information. It was believed that triangulation could be effected from pictures taken on 24 May because pictures were taken from two stations. The films were rapidly processed and examined by Data Reduction. However, it was determined that sightings were made on two different objects and triangulation could not be effected. A report from Data Reduction and the films from the sighting are enclosed.

4. There is nothing further to report at this time.”

The cover letter was sent to Commanding Officer, AF Cambridge Research Laboratory, Attn: Base Directorate, Geophysical Research, 230 Albany St., Cambridge, Massachusetts. It is not known who wrote the cover letter, according to Dr. Bruce Maccabee. Quote from Dr. Bruce Maccabee’s paper, NCP-12: The White Sands Proof (nicap.org): “The writer of this cover letter is not known (no signature). It might have been the Lt. Alpert mentioned below.”
