By analyzing evidence from government reports, medical studies, and abductee case files, this investigation proposes a Dual Effect Model of UAP contact
The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) reporton anomalous biological effects from UAP encounters has confirmed that exposure to these unknown craft can result in radiation burns, ocular damage, neurological trauma, and even unexplained pregnancies.
Yet, the question remains: Are these effects merely unintended byproducts of contact, or is there a deliberate agenda at play?
By analyzing evidence from government reports, medical studies, and abductee case files, this investigation proposes a Dual Effect Model of UAP contact:
Accidental Exposure: Many injuries—burns, radiation-like sickness, eye damage—are likely caused by proximity to exotic propulsion or energy systems beyond our understanding.
Deliberate Biological Manipulation: Some encounters show signs of direct intervention, including medical experimentation, reproductive interference, and cognitive control.
The implications of this are profound. If UAP interactions cause measurable harm, then the phenomenon is not just a curiosity—it is a potential public health and national security issue. Whether these encounters stem from indifference, experimentation, or an unknown long-term agenda, they demand serious investigation.
This report aims to reframe the conversation about UAP and non-human intelligence—moving beyond sensationalism and skepticism to examine the real-world effects on human beings. By confronting the evidence, we can better understand the nature of these encounters and prepare for whatever reality may emerge.
Next Sections Will Cover: ✔️ Breakdown of DIA medical findings ✔️ Evidence of energy-related exposure injuries ✔️ Abduction cases involving direct medical interference ✔️ Implications for national security and human sovereignty
1. Accidental Exposure to Energy Fields (Unintended Consequence)
Hypothesis: UAP may emit strong electromagnetic, radioactive, or unknown energy fields that inadvertently cause biological effects when humans come too close.
Supporting Evidence:
Radiation-Like Injuries: Some reported burns and hair loss resemble symptoms of radiation exposure, which can occur near high-energy propulsion systems.
Eye Damage & Photophobia: Intense bursts of light or high-frequency radiation could cause ocular issues.
Neurological Disruptions: EMF (Electromagnetic Fields) have been shown to impact brainwave activity, potentially explaining anxiety, sleep disruption, and headaches.
Implication: If UAP function using an advanced energy source, exposure to this field could unintentionally harm humans. They may not be attacking us—just operating on a level of physics we don’t understand yet.
2. Physiological Shock from Non-Human Interaction (Psychosomatic Effects)
Hypothesis: The psychological shock of an encounter with a UAP or non-human intelligence could trigger severe stress responses, manifesting as physical symptoms.
Supporting Evidence:
PTSD-Like Symptoms: Multiple studies have shown that abductees experience PTSD even when they don’t recall trauma.
Autonomic Nervous System Overload: The fight-or-flight response could lead to nausea, heart palpitations, and fatigue.
Placebo Effect Reversed? Just as belief in healing can improve health, an encounter with an unfamiliar intelligence might disrupt biological homeostasis through sheer cognitive dissonance.
Implication: The mind-body connection plays a huge role in health. If UAP and non-human intelligence operate on a cognitive level beyond ours, even benign encounters might cause trauma-like effects due to sensory and psychological overload.
3. Intentional Manipulation or Experimentation (Malicious or Indifferent Intent)
Hypothesis: Some UAP interactions could involve deliberate experimentation on human physiology, whether for research, control, or other unknown motives.
Supporting Evidence:
Missing Time & Abduction Cases: Many abductees report being taken and subjected to medical-like procedures.
Hybridization Programs (David Jacobs’ Work): Some researchers suggest prolonged genetic experimentation on humans.
Government Reports of “Unaccounted-for Pregnancies”: This suggests a reproductive or biological interest in humans.
Implication: If this hypothesis is correct, non-human intelligence may not view human well-being as a priority. The negative physiological effects could be a result of:
Indifference: Like how we tag and release animals for study.
Control Measures: Memory suppression could cause neurological issues.
Hybridization/Biological Experimentation: The physical symptoms might be side effects of procedures.

So, Which Explanation Fits Best?
It could be a mix of all three depending on the context.
If symptoms occur during a close encounter without abduction, it may be due to energy field exposure (Hypothesis #1).
If the effects appear later without memory of an event, it may be a psychological or neurological reaction (Hypothesis #2).
If memory gaps and medical anomalies appear, it may indicate direct experimentation (Hypothesis #3).
What’s clear is that the DIA report suggests something real is happening—whether it’s unintended exposure or deliberate manipulation remains uncertain.
1. Accidental Exposure to Energy Fields (Unintended Effect)
Key Idea:
Many of the reported burns, neurological symptoms, and radiation-like injuries could result from close proximity to UAP technology, rather than intentional harm.
If UAP use exotic propulsion systems—such as electromagnetic, plasma, or quantum field manipulation—then humans who get too close may suffer biological damage due to intense energy exposure.
Supporting Evidence:
DIA Report (Declassified): Lists radiation-like effects, eye injuries, and burns as common symptoms of UAP encounters.
Pentagon’s AATIP Research (2010s): Studies on UAP-induced physiological effects found evidence of radiation sickness and cellular damage in military personnel and civilians.
Travis Walton Case (1975): Walton reported an intense energy burst when he approached a UFO, rendering him unconscious and resulting in mild radiation-like symptoms.
Cash-Landrum Incident (1980): Witnesses exposed to a hovering UFO developed severe radiation burns and long-term health issues, suggesting intense EM or nuclear-like exposure.
Implication:
If UAP technology inherently emits strong energy fields, then human injuries might be an unintended byproduct of its operation.
Non-human intelligence may not even recognize human biological vulnerabilities, or they might consider collateral damage acceptable.
3. Intentional Manipulation or Experimentation (Deliberate Effect)
Key Idea:
Some UAP encounters show signs of deliberate physical interference, such as medical procedures, genetic sampling, and neurological manipulation.
The physical aftereffects in abductees suggest direct interaction with human biology, beyond mere environmental exposure.
🔎 Supporting Evidence:
David Jacobs’ Abduction Research: Many abductees recall medical procedures (often reproductive in nature) performed aboard UAP.
DIA Report: Mentions “unaccounted-for pregnancies” in abductees, suggesting physical alterations.
Harvard Psychiatrist John Mack: His studies on abductees found psychological trauma and persistent physical symptoms that were not easily explained by normal sleep paralysis or memory distortion.
Frequent Physical Marks on Abductees: Many report scoop marks, bruises, and implants after their experiences.
Betty and Barney Hill Case (1961): Barney suffered genital trauma, while Betty received a needle-like procedure to the abdomen, consistent with reported reproductive experiments.
Whitley Strieber’s Communion (1987): Describes highly invasive encounters with non-human entities, including neurological and sexual manipulation.
Implication:
Non-human intelligence seems interested in biological and genetic research.
Memory manipulation suggests a control mechanism—they don’t want abductees recalling these experiences.
Some effects (e.g., PTSD, neural trauma, physical injuries) may result from cognitive or medical interference rather than just radiation exposure.
Synthesizing the Theory: A Dual Effect Model
UAP Contact Can Cause Physical Harm in Two Ways:
Accidental Exposure (Environmental Damage)
Humans suffer burns, radiation, ocular damage from proximity to UAP propulsion systems.
This may not be intentional—just an effect of unknown energy fields.
Similar to radiation poisoning from nuclear exposure or EMF effects.
Deliberate Biological Manipulation
Some cases clearly involve direct human interference (abductions, medical procedures, genetic sampling).
The presence of memory suppression, implants, and genetic manipulation suggests intelligence behind the events.
Non-human entities seem to operate with an agenda—possibly hybridization, control, or experimentation.
Final Thoughts: A Disturbing but Logical Conclusion
Most UAP-related injuries are likely due to energy exposure, like radiation, plasma fields, or high-frequency EM waves.
Some cases, however, show direct manipulation—abductions, medical procedures, reproductive experiments.
The entities involved do not seem concerned with human well-being, reinforcing the idea that they operate under different moral frameworks (or simply do not see humans as we see ourselves).
The hybridization agenda (David Jacobs) and UAP energy field dangers (DIA Report) are not mutually exclusive.
Non-human intelligence may treat Earth as a laboratory, where our exposure to their presence is both a side effect and part of a larger, intentional plan.
Bottom Line: Even if UAPs are not hostile in a traditional sense, they are not acting with human interests as a priority. The DIA’s medical reports, abductee testimony, and historical cases all point toward a complex phenomenon that involves both accidental exposure and deliberate interference.
The exploration of UAP phenomena leads to questions about consciousness, suggesting that these entities possess advanced capabilities, including telepathy and time manipulation. The need for interdisciplinary research is emphasized, correlating psychological, environmental, and quantum theories while proposing a framework to understand possible interactions between humans and Ultra-terrestrials.
If you’ve been following our UAP podcast and website, you’ve been following a standard UFO research journey. You start with trying to determine if flying saucers are real. Once you’ve figured out they are real, you move onto what they are…that takes some twists and turns but it lands you somewhere in the realm of consciousness studies.
We don’t know what consciousness is. I don’t mean just us at Fortean Winds don’t know what consciousness is…humans don’t know what consciousness is.
So, being the material generation, we pretend like it doesn’t exist or relegate it to the fringes of hippy pseudoscience. Which works until it doesn’t…when we’re confronted with the reality of consciousness and its potential effects on our everyday lives, we can either dive into what science exists or dismiss it as Woo (fluff, wild theory).
Yet, these NHI and this phenomenon seem to have a greater control and understanding of consciousness than we do. If nothing else, that tells us there is so much there we have yet to discover…
If discovery is not sufficient motivation, how about survival? These beings have utilized their understanding of consciousness to control minds (see Chris Bledsoe, Fatima). They can freeze people in place, or send them on a journey to another world akin to our own but filled with fantastic creatures and unique differences (see the “Oz Effect and Hitchhiker Effect”).
Whether or not these experiences actually transport the person to another physical realm, or the experience is simulated, is unclear.
What is clear is that the NHI have this capability.
It’s intimidating to consider the fact these beings could be listening to your thoughts…all the time. Do they?
We doubt it. We have to accept they could potentially read thoughts, as we have evidence of numerous credible cases in which these beings communicate telepathically. Yet, why would they want to hear my thoughts about the latest Taylor Swift album? Seems like a waste of time (I didn’t get it).
At Fortean Winds we classify these NHI as “Ultra-terrestrials” because they live here (on planet earth) often enough to be considered terrestrial. And the “Ultra” refers to their capabilities. Not their point of origin. We’ve seen credible cases where these beings…
Can see back and forth in time
Pilot and control technology far beyond ours
Transport people into a land like Oz (apparently another reality)
Materialize and dematerialize matter
Read thoughts and communicate telepathically
Create potergeist-like activity
Appear as religious apparitions and strange monsters
Move through water and earth as if it were air (transmedium)
Transform shape (including mirroring humans)
Interact with humans on a purely psychic level…
Those are facts. We’ve seen these capabilities repeated in credible cases, reported by reliable observers and sometimes including material evidence.
We won’t spend a lot of time on this. The research community appears to be coming around to this set of facts. Good. They have to be accepted in order to be studied.
But then what…if these beings have just about every capability we can imagine, how do we go about studying them?
There is a temptation to just throw up your hands and consider them all powerful, mostly ambivalent and ignore them, or some may be tempted to worship them.
We would argue that neither of those solutions are terribly fruitful.
Instead the next logical steps are:
1) Open study and transparent information sharing of UAP discoveries
2) Attempt open and transparent communication with the NHI.
It doesn’t seem logical to us to worship something which does not make its motives clear. It also doesn’t make sense to ignore something so powerful and potentially informative…that is here…and interacts with us.
Given the confusing and disparate nature of this phenomenon and its capabilities, it seems the only way to get to the truth…is to ask. Communication is the logical next step.
We should accept that this is a multi-faceted phenomenon, which does not make itself known. In fact, it goes out of its way to hide its existence.
The fact that this phenomenon involves material craft and bodies, which are being studied, moves it out of the hippy pseudoscience category and into the WTF category?
If these things are real then all the capabilities they display are possible…and what does that say about our material reality? About our material science?
It says that it’s incomplete. But we already know that, don’t we? When did we decide we had it all figured out?
So, why can’t we ask the all-important questions? The ones that take us out of the realm of new age philosophy and into discovery.
Such as, how can something be both objective and subjective? Both material and immaterial? And why are there so many disparate pieces to this phenomenon?
This question touches on a fundamental and intriguing aspect of the phenomenon involving UAPs, abductions, cryptid sightings, and religious experiences: why do these phenomena sometimes manifest physically and other times psychically or para-physically? Here are some frameworks which attempt to explain these phenomena:
1. Jungian Theory and the Collective Unconscious:
Archetypes and Manifestations: Jung proposed that archetypes from the collective unconscious can manifest in various forms, reflecting both personal and collective human experiences. These archetypes might manifest as physical entities or experiences under certain conditions, especially when collective societal or personal psychological states are conducive.
Symbolic Representation: Physical sightings and psychic experiences could be different ways in which the unconscious mind externalizes internal conflicts, fears, or hopes. The physical manifestations could be a way for the psyche to confront and process these archetypes tangibly, while psychic experiences might represent a more internalized, introspective process. While Jung’s theories may be informative to the phenomenon as a whole (we think so), it can’t be the entirety of it, as there are ships and bodies. Can humans manifest ships and bodies which are sentient through their collective unconscious? Seems unlikely, but it may be that the phenomenon chooses its forms and is otherwise informed by Jungian theory.
Interdimensional Hypotheses: The idea that these phenomena might originate from other dimensions can explain their variable manifestations. Entities or objects could be crossing over from different realities, sometimes interacting with our physical world and other times influencing our minds more subtly. Check out our article on Tesla and Einstein for some quantum hypothesizing.
3. Consciousness and Perception:
Observer Effect: In quantum physics, the observer effect suggests that the act of observation can influence the state of a particle. Similarly, the state of the observer’s consciousness could influence whether an experience is physical or psychic. The expectation, belief, and mental state of the observer might shape how the phenomenon manifests.
Psychosocial Context: The cultural and social context can also influence the form these phenomena take. In societies with a strong belief in physical cryptids, sightings might be more common. Conversely, in cultures with a focus on spiritual or psychic experiences, these might be more prevalent. Combining Jungian theory with quantum physics where the expectations of the observer inform the observed…and we may have something.
4. Parapsychological Perspectives:
PK (Psychokinesis): Some parapsychologists suggest that psychokinetic abilities might enable individuals to manifest physical phenomena through psychic means. This theory posits that the mind can influence physical reality, leading to tangible manifestations of what might otherwise be considered purely psychological phenomena.
Collective Energy: The collective energy of a group or society, particularly in times of stress or significant change, could potentially trigger both physical and psychic manifestations. This might explain why certain periods and locations are hotspots for UAP sightings, cryptid reports, and spiritual experiences. Paranormal researchers often discuss liminal (places in a state of change) states as a precursor to a paranormal experience. Sites such as hospitals, schools and transportation hubs often report activity.
5. Environmental and Electromagnetic Factors:
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF): High levels of electromagnetic fields are often reported in areas with frequent UAP sightings and paranormal activity. EMFs can affect human perception and consciousness, potentially inducing both physical and psychic experiences.
Geophysical Anomalies: Certain geographic locations with unique magnetic or gravitational properties might act as focal points for these phenomena, facilitating both physical appearances and psychic experiences depending on the environmental conditions. These geophysical regions may be influenced by temporal factors and the observer.
The variability in the manifestation of these phenomena—sometimes physical, sometimes psychic—likely involves a complex interplay of psychological, environmental, and possibly quantum factors. Jungian theory provides a valuable framework for understanding the symbolic and archetypal dimensions of these experiences, while quantum and parapsychological theories offer insights into the mechanisms that might allow for such diverse manifestations.
Were you expecting an easy answer? Well, we have a simplified version, that we think holds up for now, and could then be expanded based on more data.
The Fortean Winds: Integrative UAP Hypothesis
Our research framework, which considers the interplay of the right person, place, and time, aligns well with the multidimensional nature of UAPs and related phenomena. This integrative approach can potentially offer a more comprehensive understanding of these elusive experiences. In short, this is how we think it(the phenomenon, NHI, whatever) works…
1. The Right Person:
Sensitivity and Connection: Some individuals appear to have a heightened sensitivity or a particular connection to these phenomena, which might be due to innate psychic abilities, previous experiences, or even genetic factors. Studies have suggested that certain people are more prone to experiencing paranormal phenomena, possibly due to their cognitive or perceptual traits.
Psychological and Emotional State: The mental and emotional state of the individual can influence their susceptibility to these experiences. Stress, trauma, and heightened emotional states are often reported in conjunction with sightings and encounters.
2. The Right Place:
Geophysical Anomalies: Locations with unique geophysical properties, such as high levels of EMF, geomagnetic anomalies, or specific mineral compositions, are often hotspots for paranormal activity and UAP sightings. Skinwalker Ranch in Utah is a notable example, known for its diverse range of unexplained phenomena, potentially linked to its unique geological features.
Historical and Cultural Significance: Certain places with rich histories of paranormal or spiritual activity might act as focal points. These areas could be imbued with cultural and symbolic significance, which might enhance their propensity for such phenomena.
3. The Right Time:
Temporal Factors: Time-related factors, such as specific times of the year (e.g., solstices, equinoxes), lunar cycles, and even certain hours of the day, might play a role in the manifestation of these phenomena. Some researchers suggest that these times could align with natural cycles that amplify environmental energies (livescience.com).
Cosmic and Astrological Influences: Cosmic events, such as solar flares, planetary alignments, and meteor showers, might also influence the occurrence of these phenomena. The idea is that these events can create fluctuations in the Earth’s electromagnetic field, potentially making it easier for interdimensional interactions or psychic phenomena to occur.
Case Studies and Examples:
Skinwalker Ranch:This site is known for a wide array of paranormal phenomena, including UAP sightings, cryptid encounters, and unexplained physical effects. Researchers have noted the presence of unusual magnetic and gravitational anomalies in the area, suggesting a link between the physical environment and the observed phenomena.
Hudson Valley Sightings: In the 1980s, the Hudson Valley in New York became a hotspot for UAP sightings. Many witnesses reported experiencing both physical sightings of craft and psychic phenomena, suggesting a combined influence of geophysical and psychological factors.
The Integrative Hypothesis:
The convergence of these factors can be viewed through an integrative hypothesis:
The Individual: People with certain sensitivities, previous experiences, family history, genetics and/or psychological predispositions may act as catalysts for these experiences.
The Environment: Geophysical anomalies and specific locations may provide the necessary conditions for these phenomena to manifest.
Temporal Conditions: Certain times may align environmental energies in ways that facilitate the occurrence of these phenomena.
This hypothesis suggests that a multidisciplinary approach, combining psychology, geology, physics, and cultural studies, is crucial for advancing our understanding of UAPs and related phenomena.
Based on our research (a review of thousands of cases), these are the determining factors of a UAP sighting or related paranormal event. A UAP or paranormal event occurs when the right person is in the right place at the right time.
However, it is missing one important variable and that variable has a huge impact: The Will and Actions of the NHI
These beings are conducting themselves and their activities according to their own agenda. We would argue that incidents. where these principles are not deterministic, occurred simply because it suited the NHI agenda (whatever that may be).
Yet, we consider it possible the factors in the integrated hypothesis may limit the time and targets which the NHI have available.
This NHI agenda needs to be studied both separately and in parallel, but it has to be viewed differently. We need to understand what the NHI achieved or hoped to achieve in these encounters. This is more like behavioral profiling.
A review of the cases has to be done to develop a reliable case pool and then the cases need to be analyzed to determine what the encounter most likely provided to the NHI and how it affected the contactee.
We’ve done this exercise, and the effects of the encounters appear to be mixed. Meaning they sometimes positively (healing, wisdom) but more often negatively (trauma, radiation) affect the individual. This could be the result of different factions of NHI interacting with humanity differently, or it could speak to a larger control mechanism and a long term plan of their own design. The NHI agenda, at this point, is unclear to everyone…
Additionally, we should note that these factors appear to work independently and in combination. For example, if you’re in the super right place at the super right time, it may not be necessary to be the right person. Conversely, if you’re the right person, the right place and time may be more flexible.
This is how it appears to work based on our current review and the state of our research. The Hitchhiker Effect also has an outsized effect on paranormal and UAP occurrences and points to a genetic or biological component to this phenomenon. This is noted in the integrative hypothesis as “family history” and “previous experiences.”
How’s that for deconstructing the woo…What could be more earthly than human biology?
De-Mystifying the Mystical:
We’ve assigned these beings the “mystical or magical” label because our ancestors didn’t know a lot about material science. We do. Yet, what we know is incomplete. Science and history are ever-evolving subjects. We don’t know what we don’t know. If nothing else, they’ve shown us that what we thought is impossible is not. That’s not magical or mystical…it’s opportunity.
Yet, it takes courage to accept the facts in UAP and Paranormal encounters. It takes the courage to research it and then it takes courage to believe credible people relaying incredible things.
That normally wouldn’t seem like much…except they keep saying the same thing…for thousands of years.
But the real challenge is accepting what you’ve found as fact and moving forward with it. Moving forward involves open and transparent study of the phenomenon we’ve outlined. That study should result in an effort of open and transparent communication with this phenomenon.
How would we communicate with the phenomenon? Naturally, we got some ideas!

We discuss the “hitchhiker effect” identified at Skinwalker Ranch – a phenomenon in which anomalous objects or entities appear to follow or accompany individuals away from the site.
The “hitchhiker effect” at Skinwalker Ranch is a phenomenon in which anomalous objects or entities appear to follow or accompany individuals who have had previous encounters with paranormal or anomalous phenomena at the site. This effect has been reported by numerous witnesses and has been documented in several scientific investigations of the ranch.
According to reports, individuals who have experienced anomalous activity at Skinwalker Ranch may begin to experience additional anomalous phenomena outside of the site. For example, they may report seeing strange objects or entities following them, experiencing unexplained sensations, or hearing unexplained sounds.
The exact cause and nature of the hitchhiker effect at Skinwalker Ranch is still not fully understood, and there are several competing theories that attempt to explain this phenomenon.
One theory suggests that the hitchhiker effect may be related to the presence of dark energy or dark matter, which are invisible and mysterious components of the universe that are thought to make up the majority of its mass. According to this theory, the anomalous activity at Skinwalker Ranch may be related to the influence of dark energy or dark matter on the environment, which could potentially cause objects or entities to become “stuck” to individuals who have had previous encounters with anomalous phenomena.
Another theory suggests that the hitchhiker effect may be related to the influence of consciousness on the environment. According to this theory, individuals who have had previous encounters with paranormal or anomalous phenomena may become more sensitive to the subtle influences of the environment, which could potentially cause them to attract additional anomalous phenomena.
Additionally, some researchers have proposed that the hitchhiker effect may be related to the multiverse theory, which suggests that there may be multiple parallel universes or dimensions that exist alongside our own. According to this theory, the anomalous activity at Skinwalker Ranch may be related to the crossing over of objects or entities from other dimensions or universes.
Ultimately, the cause and nature of the hitchhiker effect at Skinwalker Ranch remains a subject of ongoing research and investigation, and there is still much that we do not understand about this phenomenon. By continuing to study and document the anomalous activity at the site, we may be able to gain new insights into the mysteries of the universe and the nature of reality itself.
Hitchhiker Effect Incidents
There have been several reported incidents at Skinwalker Ranch that involve the “hitchhiker effect,” in which anomalous objects or entities appear to follow or accompany individuals who have had previous encounters with paranormal or anomalous phenomena at the site. These incidents indicate a pattern as they precede nearly identical incidents reported by the current team. Here are a few examples:
The Orb Incident: In one incident reported by scientist and researcher Colm Kelleher, he and his team were driving near Skinwalker Ranch when they encountered a large orb of light hovering in the sky. As they watched, the orb suddenly shot down toward them and hovered directly in front of their vehicle. After a few moments, the orb shot off into the distance and disappeared.
Following the incident, Kelleher reported experiencing strange phenomena outside of the ranch, including seeing orbs of light following him and his team, and experiencing unexplained sensations and sounds. These phenomena continued for several weeks after the initial encounter, suggesting the presence of the hitchhiker effect.
The Strange Entity Incident: In another incident reported by former ranch owner Terry Sherman, he reported encountering a strange entity that appeared to be following him outside of the ranch. According to Sherman, he and his son had been investigating anomalous activity on the ranch when they encountered a humanoid figure that appeared to be made of metal and had glowing red eyes.
Skinwalker Ranch – KSL – fair use
After encountering the entity, Sherman reported experiencing strange phenomena outside of the ranch, including seeing the entity following him and his family and experiencing unexplained sounds and sensations. The entity reportedly followed Sherman and his family for several days after the initial encounter, suggesting the presence of the hitchhiker effect.
The Vehicle Incident: In one incident reported by former ranch owner Robert Bigelow, he and his team were conducting investigations on the ranch when they encountered a strange vehicle that appeared to be following them. The vehicle, which had no apparent driver, appeared to be made of a metallic material and emitted a strange humming sound.
Following the encounter, members of Bigelow’s team reported experiencing strange phenomena outside of the ranch, including seeing the strange vehicle following them and experiencing unexplained sensations and sounds. These phenomena continued for several days after the initial encounter, suggesting the presence of the hitchhiker effect.
The Light Anomaly Incident: In another incident reported by the Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies (BAASS) program, a member of their team encountered a strange light anomaly while investigating the ranch. The anomaly, which appeared as a bright orb of light, followed the team member as he drove away from the ranch and continued to follow him for several miles before disappearing.
Following the encounter, the team member reported experiencing strange phenomena outside of the ranch, including seeing the light anomaly following him and experiencing unexplained sensations and sounds. These phenomena continued for several days after the initial encounter, suggesting the presence of the hitchhiker effect.
The Hitchhiker Effect and Skinwalker Ranch TV Show
Skinwalker Ranch is the subject of the History Channel show “The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch.” The show requires a crew to be stationed on the ranch and film events. As we would expect, if the phenomenon is real, the crew have reported symptoms and experiences similar to the cast and scientists studying the ranch.
One incident involved a crew member who reported experiencing strange and unexplained phenomena after encountering anomalous activity at the ranch. According to the crew member, he experienced a series of vivid and terrifying nightmares following his initial encounter, which continued for several days and left him feeling drained and exhausted.
Another incident involved a camera crew who reported experiencing technical malfunctions while filming at the ranch. According to reports, cameras and other equipment would suddenly shut down or malfunction without any apparent cause, making it difficult to capture consistent and reliable footage of the anomalous activity at the site.
Additionally, several members of the TV crew reported experiencing strange sensations and feelings of unease while filming at the ranch, and some reported seeing strange objects or entities that they could not explain.
While these incidents do not necessarily indicate the presence of the hitchhiker effect, they do suggest that the anomalous activity at Skinwalker Ranch can have a profound and potentially unsettling effect on those who experience it. The reports from the TV crew also highlight the challenges of conducting scientific investigations at the site, given the potential for interference from external sources and the difficulty of capturing reliable and consistent data.
According to reports, in the early 1990s, ranch owner Terry Sherman and his family encountered a strange upright canine creature on the ranch. The creature, which was described as being around six feet tall and having glowing red eyes, appeared to be following the family and was spotted on multiple occasions over a period of several months.
Following their encounters with the creature, the Sherman family reported experiencing additional strange phenomena outside of the ranch, including seeing the creature following them and experiencing unexplained sensations and sounds. These phenomena continued for several weeks after the initial encounter, suggesting the presence of the hitchhiker effect.
Reports of similar upright canine entities have been documented in other parts of the world as well, including in the United States, where they are often referred to as “Dogmen” or “Skinwalkers.” While the exact nature and origin of these entities remain a subject of debate and speculation, the reports suggest that they may be related to the anomalous activity at Skinwalker Ranch and other sites of reported paranormal phenomena.
Physiological Response to the “Hitchhiker Effect”
There have been several reports of the “hitchhiker effect” at Skinwalker Ranch in which individuals who have encountered anomalous phenomena at the site report experiencing physical effects on their immune system. Here are two examples:
The Radiation Exposure Incident: In one incident reported by former ranch owner Robert Bigelow, members of his team encountered anomalous radiation readings while investigating the ranch. Following the encounter, several members of the team reported experiencing symptoms of radiation sickness, including nausea, headaches, and fatigue. Which are also symptoms of Havana Syndrome.
Interestingly, after leaving the ranch, these symptoms persisted for several days, despite medical tests showing no signs of radiation exposure. Some members of the team also reported experiencing other unexplained physical symptoms, such as rashes and sores, suggesting that the hitchhiker effect may have had an effect on their immune systems.
The Mysterious Illness Incident: In another incident reported by researcher Christopher O’Brien, a group of individuals who had previously encountered anomalous phenomena at Skinwalker Ranch reported experiencing a mysterious illness. According to reports, the individuals experienced symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, and memory loss, which persisted for several months after leaving the ranch.
Medical tests conducted on the individuals showed no signs of a physical illness or infection, leading some to speculate that the hitchhiker effect may have had an effect on their immune systems. It is worth noting, however, that these reports are anecdotal and have not been scientifically verified through publicly released information.
Scientific Study of the Ranch and Hitchhiker Effect Theories
There are several scientists and researchers who have studied the physiological effects of the “hitchhiker effect” at Skinwalker Ranch, in which individuals who have encountered anomalous phenomena at the site report experiencing physical effects on their immune system. These researchers have proposed several theories to explain the potential health effects of encountering paranormal or anomalous phenomena, as well as the mechanisms behind the hitchhiker effect. Here are a few examples:
Christopher O’Brien: As a researcher and author who has extensively studied anomalous phenomena at Skinwalker Ranch, Mr. O’Brien has proposed several theories to explain the potential health effects of the hitchhiker effect. One theory suggests that the anomalous phenomena at the ranch may be related to the presence of strong electromagnetic fields or other forms of radiation that could potentially have negative health effects on individuals who encounter them. Another theory proposes that the hitchhiker effect may be related to the influence of consciousness on the environment, and that the human mind may have the ability to influence the physical world in ways that are not yet fully understood.
Dr. Eric Davis: As a physicist and researcher who has studied the potential mechanisms behind the hitchhiker effect, Dr. Davis has proposed that the anomalous activity at Skinwalker Ranch may be related to the presence of exotic matter or energy that is not yet understood by modern science. He has suggested that this matter or energy may have the ability to influence the physical world in unpredictable and potentially dangerous ways, and that the hitchhiker effect may be related to the way that this matter or energy interacts with the human body and immune system.
Dr. John Alexander: As a retired Army intelligence officer and researcher who has studied paranormal phenomena, Dr. Alexander has proposed that the hitchhiker effect may be related to the influence of consciousness on the physical world. He has suggested that the human mind may have the ability to influence the environment in subtle and unpredictable ways, and that encounters with paranormal or anomalous phenomena may trigger a response in the human body that results in physical effects on the immune system.
Dr. James Houran and Dr. Brian Laythe: While Dr. Houran and Dr. Laythe’s studies were not directly related to the “Hitchiker Effect”, their findings may offer some insight into the effect.
Their primary goal was to use research to build a better understanding of hauntings and related paranormal phenomena.
Haunted People Syndrome was one of the primary theories built out of this research.
Laythe and Houran propose four core features of Haunted People Syndrome, namely:
The meaning-making or narrative created around haunting experiences is influenced by personal backgrounds, beliefs, and personality characteristics
Anxiety and distress regarding hauntings are a function of the nature, closeness, and spontaneity of anomalous experiences
Distress and unease make anomalous experiences more likely to occur
Anomalous experiences tend to be contagious, i.e, anomalous experiences can spread to others
A comparison of the individuals who have been affected by anomalous experiences at Skinwalker Ranch against the characteristics identified in the “Haunted People” studies may show a correlation.
These incidents highlight the potential physical effects that the hitchhiker effect may have on individuals who encounter anomalous phenomena at Skinwalker Ranch. While the exact cause and nature of these effects remain a subject of debate and speculation, they suggest that the anomalous activity at the site may have powerful and mysterious influences on the human body and immune system. Further research and investigation will be necessary to fully understand the potential health effects of encountering paranormal or anomalous phenomena at Skinwalker Ranch and other sites of reported paranormal activity.
Furthermore, these incidents indicate a pattern of harm. This indicates there is a public health risk to the phenomenon. While keeping these incidents quiet may seem prudent to those in power…imagine you’re the one being affected. These people have nowhere to turn. The parallels between the symptoms and physiological effects of the hitchhiker phenomenon and cases of “Havana Syndrome” are apparent and worthy of further study.
Skinwalker Ranch is a property located in the Uintah Basin in Utah, USA, and has been a hotspot for alleged paranormal activity, UFO sightings, and strange occurrences. The show has frequently highlighted the presence of a signal at 1.6GHz during anomalous events. They’ve also documented the cattle behaving agitated and unusual when the signal is detected.
The presence of an otherworldly being at Skinwalker Ranch could possibly explain the appearance of a 1.6 GHz frequency signal. However, it is also used by a variety of terrestrial applications such as communications and GPS devices. Let’s discuss…
What’s the Frequency Kenneth?
1.6 GHz is a frequency in the ultra-high frequency (UHF) range, which is commonly used for communication systems such as cell phones, GPS, and satellite television.
We’ve discussed the evidence there is an otherworldly being at Skinwalker Ranch and the fact Bob Bigelow and the US government were interested enough at one point to spend millions of dollars studying the ranch, so we’ll agree something is there and discuss why In the context of Skinwalker Ranch, there are several reasons why the presence of an otherworldly being might be associated with the 1.6 GHz frequency:
Why Might Another Species Use the Signal?
Communication: The otherworldly being might be using the 1.6 GHz frequency to communicate with their own kind or other beings, as it falls within the range of frequencies commonly used for communication purposes. This could be due to the convenience of using existing infrastructure, or because this frequency range provides a good balance between signal strength and distance for their needs.
Technology Interference: The presence of an otherworldly being could potentially introduce advanced technology into the area, which might cause interference with or mimic signals within the 1.6 GHz frequency range. This could result in the appearance of this frequency at the ranch, even if it is not being used for communication.
Energy Source: The otherworldly being could be using the 1.6 GHz frequency as a source of energy or power for their activities at the ranch. This might be because the frequency is readily available, or because it has specific properties that make it suitable for their purposes.
Disguise: The otherworldly being might be deliberately generating a 1.6 GHz frequency signal to disguise their presence or activities. By mimicking a common communication frequency, they could potentially avoid detection or blend in with the surrounding environment.
From Intro to the Electromagentic Spectrum – NASA
This signal is used frequently by humanity and the phenomenon might be using this frequency BECAUSE it is used by humans.
Meaning the phenomenon may have chosen this signal because we use it, and thus it would not be easily detected. Some of the reasons it may use this:
GPS: The Global Positioning System (GPS) utilizes frequencies around 1.575 GHz (L1 band) and 1.2276 GHz (L2 band) for its signals. Although these frequencies are not exactly 1.6 GHz, they are close enough that an otherworldly being might choose to use 1.6 GHz to leverage the existing GPS infrastructure or to avoid interference with GPS signals.
Mobile communications: In some regions, 1.6 GHz might be allocated for mobile communications. While it is not a standard frequency for most mobile networks, it could still be utilized in certain situations. An otherworldly being might use this frequency to communicate with devices on Earth or to tap into existing communication networks.
Satellite communications: Some satellite communication systems, including those for television and data services, use frequencies in the 1.6 GHz range. An otherworldly being could potentially use this frequency range to send and receive information to and from satellites or other spacecraft.
Radio astronomy: The 1.6 GHz frequency range may be used in radio astronomy for studying celestial objects such as galaxies, quasars, and pulsars. An otherworldly being could use this frequency range to study Earth or other celestial bodies, or to monitor and analyze the data collected by radio telescopes.
Wireless technologies: Some wireless technologies, such as wireless sensors and IoT devices, might operate in the 1.6 GHz frequency range. Although this is less common, an otherworldly being could choose to use this frequency range to control or monitor devices, gather data, or interact with Earth’s technological infrastructure.
Considering these applications, the presence of an otherworldly being might be associated with the 1.6 GHz frequency because they are leveraging existing technologies or infrastructure for their own purposes, whether it be communication, energy, or data collection.
Does 1.6ghz Have a Havana Syndrome Connection?
In season 3 Jason Taylor of UAPX was struck with what appeared to be the onset of “Havana Syndrome,” the 1.6 GHz signal appeared at the same time he was hit with what appeared highly concentrated electromagnetic waves. This is interesting because the 1.6 GHz signal is on the portion of the spectrum that could indicate the presence of microwaves and other forms of radiation related to “Havana Syndrome.”
If a person were exposed to a high amount of focused 1.6 GHz microwave radiation, it could have several potential effects, depending on the intensity and duration of exposure. It is important to note that the specific outcomes would depend on various factors, including the individual’s sensitivity to electromagnetic radiation, the radiation’s intensity, and the exposure time.
Some possible effects of exposure to high amounts of focused 1.6 GHz microwave radiation include:
Thermal effects: Microwaves can cause heating in materials that absorb them, including human tissue. Exposure to high-intensity microwave radiation could lead to an increase in temperature within the body, potentially resulting in burns, tissue damage, or an increase in the core body temperature (hyperthermia).
Electromagnetic interference: High amounts of microwave radiation might interfere with the normal functioning of electronic devices and medical implants, such as pacemakers, hearing aids, or other assistive devices. This could lead to temporary or permanent malfunctions.
Nervous system effects: Although the effects of microwave radiation on the nervous system are not entirely understood, some studies suggest that high-intensity exposure may cause changes in nerve function or induce an electrical current within the nervous system. This could potentially lead to neurological symptoms or alterations in cognitive function.
Biological effects: Exposure to high-intensity microwave radiation could potentially cause various biological effects, such as alterations in cell function, changes in gene expression, or the production of reactive oxygen species. These effects might contribute to tissue damage, inflammation, or an increased risk of developing certain health conditions.
The presence of the same frequency in cases where individuals contracted Havana Syndrome might be an indication of the presence of the same otherworldly being, or a bad actor may have figured out that this signal at high intensity can do all kinds of harm. Yet, if this is a bad -human- actor we’d again have to ask ourselves why they would be targeting the cast members of a reality TV show. If the 1.6GHz signal is detected during UAP flight and related to its propulsion, that same energy might be concentrated into a weapon.
Considering the similarities between Havana Syndrome and cases of people being affected by standing too close to a UFO or UAP, it is possible that this signal is part of the same energy which is used to both propel the craft and alternately can be focused as a weapon. The same signal could be used for a variety of purposes.
It is possible, one possiblity…that the 1.6GHz signal is the energy (or the byproduct of an energy) another intelligence or species has mastered the same way our species has mastered electricity.
The 1.6GHz signal and UAP as Quantum Phenomena
If UFO phenomena are indeed quantum in nature, high-frequency waves associated with their energy signatures may exhibit unique characteristics that differ from conventional sources. While the specific types of high-frequency waves would depend on the underlying quantum processes, here are some possibilities to consider:
Quantum Emission Signatures: If UFOs harness quantum phenomena for propulsion or energy generation, they might emit high-frequency electromagnetic waves that correspond to quantum transitions or fluctuations. These emissions could span a wide range of frequencies, including radio waves, microwaves, and even X-rays or gamma rays, depending on the nature of the quantum processes involved.
Modulated Frequencies: Quantum systems can exhibit rapid and complex fluctuations in their energy states. UFOs might emit high-frequency waves with irregular or modulated patterns, indicating the dynamic nature of their quantum energy sources. These modulations could occur across various parts of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Resonance Effects: Quantum systems often resonate at specific frequencies related to their energy levels. UFOs might emit high-frequency waves that correspond to quantum resonances within their propulsion or energy systems. Detecting resonance-related signatures could provide insights into the underlying quantum mechanics.
Sudden Bursts: Quantum phenomena can manifest as abrupt and spontaneous events. High-frequency wave emissions from UFOs might occur as sudden bursts or spikes in intensity, resembling transient signals that are not characteristic of typical human-made technologies.
Entanglement-Induced Waves: If UFOs involve quantum entanglement in their operation, they might emit high-frequency waves that are correlated with other quantum entities or events. Detecting entanglement-induced wave patterns could indicate a connection between UFOs and quantum phenomena.
Frequency Shifts: Quantum systems can exhibit frequency shifts when transitioning between energy states. Observing high-frequency wave emissions with noticeable frequency shifts over short time intervals might suggest quantum interactions or changes within the UFO.
Nonlinear Effects: Quantum superposition and entanglement can lead to nonlinear effects in wave emissions. UFOs might emit high-frequency waves with nonlinear features, such as harmonic generation or frequency mixing, which could distinguish them from conventional sources
Of course, this signal is used by many terrestrial applications, and its appearance may be a prosaic fluke or a byproduct of the UFO phenomenon rather than an intentional wave. Yet…we gotta admit…seems weird.

A place to keep gathering notes related to the signal.
“UPDATE – Major findings regarding Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Scientific Monitoring in Brazil Last week, a 4-day field immersion was carried out at a hotspot in Brazil (Serra da Beleza, Rio de Janeiro) to record events of anomalous phenomena and their signatures in radio, microwave, infrared, visible and ionizing spectrum. The following findings were learned: – Peaks of electromagnetic radiation were detected a few minutes before the appearance of the phenomena with magnetic and electric fields values 30 times greater than the background noise; – In the same time window of the appearance of the phenomena, a strong electromagnetic signal was detected in the microwave range near 1.6 GHz; – There was a response after the emission of a laser beam through changes in color and intensity, as well as blinks, demonstrating possible intelligence behind these phenomena. More data are needed to corroborate these findings and continuous measurement equipment will be installed next weeks. These phenomena at this location appear more often during new moon periods between 6pm and 8pm, so the observation schedule was accomplished last week due to this reason. Special thanks to my friend, the greek journalist Theodorakis that brought lot of equipment to the field and made it possible.”
Havana Syndrome affects diplomats and others, with symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and cognitive difficulties. Investigations have focused on government personnel, potentially overlooking broader cases. Some symptoms resemble those reported by UFO proximity witnesses, suggesting a possible connection. Expanding research to include non-diplomats may reveal new patterns worth exploring.
We discussed Havana syndrome previously in our article UFOs and Brain Damage: Stranger Danger. To recap, we mentioned how Havana Syndrome is a set of symptoms which have affected overseas diplomats (as well as people who are not diplomats and not overseas). Over the last 2 years, the investigation of this ailment has continued in the public. Some new information has been uncovered, but the specific cause and culprit remain unknown.
From the Fortean Winds POV, the current public investigation is hindered by not acknowledging the connection between UFO/UAP and the symptoms associated with Havana Syndrome. Below are the common symptoms reported and these are the same set of symptoms reported by individuals who have been within close proximity of unidentified flying objects.
Headaches: Severe, persistent headaches are a common complaint among those affected by Havana syndrome.
Dizziness: Many individuals reported feeling dizzy and unsteady, sometimes vertigo.
Hearing loss: Some individuals reported sudden hearing loss, ringing in the ears, and difficulty hearing certain frequencies.
Cognitive difficulties: Some individuals reported memory problems, difficulty concentrating, and confusion.
Visual problems: Some individuals reported temporary vision changes, blurred vision and double vision.
Balance problems: Many individuals reported difficulties with balance, including a tendency to fall.
Sleep disturbances: Some individuals reported difficulty sleeping and feeling excessively tired.
Tinnitus: Some individuals report a persistent ringing in their ears.
Physical sensations: Some individuals reported feeling pressure or vibrations in their body.
These symptoms are indicative of exposure to low frequency waves. It is possible a foreign actor produced such waves. Such weapons exist. Which is a more recent development in this case. In the investigation for his Havana Syndrome podcast journalist Nicky Woolf uncovered that the US has such capabilities.
The focus has been on the diplomats and government personnel affected by the syndrome at the exclusion of other public cases. In the data world, we would call this cherry picking. It’s what happens when you begin with too narrow of a hypothesis, and only accept the data which fits into it. The hypothesis begins with the idea that this is an energy weapon being directed at US service personnel. So, it just ignores the other public cases, such as the cast member of Skinwalker Ranch who also developed the syndrome (Jason Turner and Travis Taylor, two other cast members have experienced the onset of Havana Syndrome while on camera).
His was not the only case of a domestic – non-US government – civilian individual who afflicted by Havana Syndrome. Yet, the investigation focuses on the government personnel.
Why is this important? It’s important because it’s like trying to put together a puzzle and you’re missing half of the pieces. We’re reliant on public information such as what was put out by the National Academies of Sciences and the Department of State.
An Assessment of Illness in U.S. Government Employees and Their Families at Overseas Embassies National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. 2020. An Assessment of Illness in U.S. Government Employees and Their Families at Overseas Embassies. Washington, DC: The National Academies Press. https://doi.org/10.17226/25889.
These assessments don’t consider UAP in their analysis. The ongoing journalism isn’t focused on the UAP angle. Why should they be?
Because even if Havana Syndrome is entirely the product of a hostile foreign power, that foreign power is aware of what we point out in our article UFOs and Brain Damage. Which is that Havana Syndrome is the same set of symptoms and physiological effects recorded by medical professionals, examining individuals who were in close proximity to UFO/UAP. Thus, that foreign power is aware it can use UFO/UAP as an alibi.
“It wasn’t us, it was the flying saucers.”
The US Government has acknowledged UFO/UAP exist, and there is a publicly known task force looking into the objects. Yet, there isn’t disclosure. They haven’t discussed the materials of which they are in possession, or the conclusions of their 70 years of study. This would make for a nasty form of disclosure.
“UFOs are here. They’re irradiating some people. But in this case we think it’s Country XY.”
That would be a lot to unpack for people. It’s possible this quagmire is pushing the discussion of disclosure forward. If a country is going to use UAP as an alibi, UAP first have to be eliminated as a possibility by the accuser. That can’t be done unless they’re acknowledged to exist, and some research based evidence demonstrates that UAP are not to blame.
Furthermore, it is necessary to consider UAP in the Havana Syndrome issue as some of these cases may have been caused by UAP. Vice News has a Havana Syndrome podcast covering this topic, and they interview a woman affected by Havana Syndrome while working as a diplomat in Cuba. She goes by the pseudonym “Tina.”
“I didn’t hear anything except the water running, the sensation I felt was an overwhelming sense of inexplicable anxiety. There was no reason for it. I was not stressed at all…and there was an incredible pressure and pain in my head and my ears. I never felt anything like that before, I felt paralyzed. It was just sort of one of those…where you’re in a dream and you can’t move.”
Tina also points out that her job is not sensitive and she does not consider herself a likely target for hostile action. This is the current conclusion of the intelligence community as well. They haven’t found any evidence that points to a hostile foreign power. The selection of targets doesn’t seem to indicate a specific pattern of intent. So….if you’ve eliminated all of the likely possibilities…perhaps it’s time to consider the anomalous.
This is by no means a stretch. The study you find often mentioned here on Fortean Winds is the government’s (DIA) report “The Anomalous Acute and Subacute Field Effects on Human Biological Tissue.” This report is so important because it talks about the physical effects of UFOs on people. Havana Syndrome is identical to many of these effects.
It really did make the most sense that this was a hostile foreign power. Yet if the intel community’s assessment is accurate and transparent, UAP are simply the next most likely suspect. Multiple instances of the same effects at Skinwalker Ranch and abductees studied by medical professionals.
If one considers UAP a real suspect it allows investigators to widen their net. They can look at cases of Havana Syndrome which affected people who are NOT government employees. If this is not a hostile foreign power, and they’re only looking at government cases for patterns….they’re unlikely to find anything meaningful. If US investigators looked at cases of ordinary civilians affected by UAP and compare them to what they know about the diplomats cases, new patterns may emerge. There might be a physiological connection or other similarity between these victims which could indicate why they were targeted.
We won’t know unless we ask those pesky UFO questions…and that’s cool. That’s why we’re here.
The article discusses the unidentified flying objects (UFO) phenomenon, emphasizing its longstanding history, interactions with humanity, and potential intentions behind it. The authors argue against the need to ascertain the origin of UFOs before acknowledging their existence. They highlight the phenomenon’s deceptive nature, potential genetic implications, and call for more rigorous study and data collection.
Author’s note 1_26_24: We wrote and published this article in December of 2022. Since then, much of this has been confirmed by whistleblowers on the floor of Congress. We could not have known this information if there was not one set of reliable data already in the public. That is our thesis. We offer this article as proof of that thesis. Although our thoughts on the subject may continue to evolve. Following this note, we won’t update this. It is necessary to point out that this cover-up is happening in plain sight.
We don’t know what the phenomenon which makes itself most apparent through unidentified flying objects is. We don’t know where it comes from. It could be extraterrestrial or it could be “other.” So, what is “other?”
Other could be any of the following or as Monty Python would often say…”something completely different.” Future humans, past humans, aquatic creatures, interdimensional or beings from outside of space and time…The US Government and researchers who’ve spent decades studying the phenomenon seem to agree on this point. They don’t know the origin of the phenomenon. Yet, people don’t seem to want to accept the phenomenon exists unless they’re told where it comes from. This is silly.
The origin of the UFOs and beings which appear around UFOs is unknown. We know the objects are real. We and (likely) the government do not know where it comes from, and if there is one thing we can offer to help this conversation along it is: Stop this conversation.
It’s not likely we will find out where these objects are from until we learn much more about them. This will take study, it will take research. It will take mass acceptance of the phenomenon along with academics and journalists studying the phenomenon in earnest, and then….we might get an answer…we might not. We may never really know or understand where this phenomenon comes from. Accept it, so we can move forward.
For the time being, the question should not be the focus of research, because there is no way to determine the origin of the objects. Even if a UFO entity were to state where they are from (and according to reports they have – they’ve said they’re from different places), these entities have proven they are capable of great deception.
Famed UFO researcher Jacques Vallee wrote a great book called “Messengers of Deception.” He details how the phenomenon takes different forms and shapes. It tells humans all sorts of contradictory and sometimes absurd information. Vallee wonders if these deceptions are said with the intent of manipulating humanity. It’s a good question, but for now we’ll just point out that all of this deception means asking the phenomenon where it’s (or it telling you where it’s from) is not a reliable means of determining the origin of the phenomenon.
We don’t need to know the origin of the phenomenon to acknowledge its existence. In fact, we need to study the phenomenon in order to determine its origin.
Where to begin? Charles Fort said “One measures a circle, beginning anywhere.” He faced this exact question in the early 20th century. Because he was facing the exact same phenomenon. Which brings us to our first point in understanding the shape of the phenomenon. It is old. If Fort was studying it a hundred years ago, it’s at least a hundred years old (more likely thousands).
The Phenomenon is Old.
Fort found evidence the phenomenon existed during his own time and chronicled UFO stories in his numerous books and articles. Yet, again we’d have to point to Jacques Vallee as the most credible researcher on this subject, there is something to the all the ancient aliens hypotheses. Vallee points to a number of historical events, UFO sightings and abductions in his work “Dimensions.” There is enough evidence to suggest the phenomenon is much older than a hundred years. This doesn’t mean they built the pyramids…it just means they were around when it happened.
That’s a good first point. We need to collect these points. If we put enough of these points on paper. We can look for patterns. Patterns might help us understand intent. While the question of origin may be delayed indefinitely, the question of intent needs to be answered as soon as possible. These entities interact with us, and we should learn why. If we put enough dots on paper, we might be able to connect them and find the central threads to their interaction with us.
The good news is all of this phenomenon history makes a sudden attack seem less likely. If they were invaders from outer space who just showed up this century with increasing frequency, it might be building toward something bad.
The Phenomenon Interacts with Humanity
Which is a good second point. The phenomenon interacts with humanity. A UFO sighting is an interaction. Many people have said encounters with UFO craft changed them. “Havana Syndrome” bears hallmarks of UAP related brain damage. Some cases of “Havana Syndrome” are directly related to UAP as they involved a sighting or interaction. Thus, the phenomenon does more than interact with humanity, it affects us. Cataloging these effects and placing them into categories is essential to understanding the most basic question of intent: is the phenomenon helping us or hurting us?
Balwyn UFO Melbourne, Australia 1966
We’ve discussed radiation effects caused by proximity to UFOs, and they are not positive. The vast majority of cases looked at by physicians showed people who stood too close to an energy source. It damaged their insides while leaving their outsides relatively unharmed. This may not be the product of a weapon, but rather the result of being too close to a craft or entity which is emitting a lot of energy. Yet, our clear conclusion after looking at the data in the report compiled for the US government is being anywhere near a UFO is generally bad for people.
In the book “The Eighth Tower” author John Keel wrote: “The most chilling problem I found in my own efforts to reexamine some old cases was the disturbing fact that witnesses, particularly monster witnesses, often die within six months to two years. The apparitions seem to be omens. The deaths usually natural-heart attacks, accidents, prolonged illnesses. Ancient folklore linked the appearances of demons with impending death. There may be more truth to this than we can admit.”
Keel wrote that in 1975. Long before the government released the public report on the physiological effect of UFOs on humans.
UFO/UAP seem to have a big interest in nuclear power and weapons. Researcher Robert Hastings has done fantastic work uncovering the connection between UFOs and UAP. The Malstrom Incident was brought up during the congressional hearing of 2022 and the DOD agreed to look into it. The UAP in this incident flew over a nuclear warhead and disabled it. This is the most famous UFO – Nuke instance. However, Hastings collected sightings of UFOs around power plants, submarines etc.
During contact experiences, UFO entities often warn of impending nuclear danger. They warn us to change course before we destroy ourselves. Which seems benevolent and may be their interest in nukes, but we might be a resource, and they wouldn’t want their resource destroyed. Also, whether or not they are here to gather resources or they live here all the time, or they actually from here….they are here. So, they likely don’t want us blowing them up along with ourselves.
UFO entities have a similar relationship with the environment. Often warning contactees of impending environmental doom. All of the same motives as nukes may be in play regarding their interest in the environment. Particularly, the last one. Author Mac Tonnies made a very strong argument these UFO entities are actually from here. He popularized the term “cryptoterrestrials” meaning an indigenous species of humans responsible for the phenomenon. Tonnies’ theory fits with much of the behavior we’ve seen from the phenomenon. It co-exists with us and has for a long time. Long enough to be considered indigenous. If it doesn’t live here…it’s here often enough…it should really pay taxes.
The next interaction is controversial. When researching UFOs, one of the hardest pieces to accept is abductions. It’s easy to accept there are craft in the sky we can’t identify, but accepting abductions takes a lot more evidence and a lot more courage. We discussed abductions in detail, and it is a real phenomenon. People experience missing time, physiological effects and are physically missing. These are just a few of the physical effects.
The psychological effects range far and wide. Obviously, this is devastating for people who experience it. Yet, the abduction experience goes beyond the psychological. Harvard Psychiatrist Dr. John Mack wrote:
“Neurophysiological explanations include sleep paralysis and temporal lobe epilepsy (Spanos et al. 1993; Persinger 1992; Blackmore 1994), but researchers exploring these possibilities have either failed to find such pathology among abduction experiencers or have chosen to overlook important aspects of the phenomenon. For example, many abduction experiences occur under conditions that do not appear to be associated with sleep. Second, abduction experiences are often corroborated by independent UFO sightings or physical evidence. Third, neurophysiological explanations do not account for hyperarousal and anxiety triggered by certain events or images symbolically linked to abduction.”
John Mack – Abduction: Human Encounters with Aliens -1994
The existence of abductions, their existence among families and the types of organs extracted during cattle mutilations (reproductive, soft tissue) make it seem very likely the phenomenon is involved in some genetic manipulation, resource gathering or experimentation involving humans.
UFO Interactions Run in Families
Abductions are the most obvious example of a filial connection. Abductions are often repeated events. Meaning they happen throughout a person’s life. If a mother is an abductee. She knows her children are more likely to be abductees. The same is true of many UFO witnesses. They see the objects more than once, and can often find a family member who has seen something similar. The same is also true of events described as “paranormal” or “high strangenesss.”
The connection between UFO sightings and families is an important feature of the UFO-Humanity interaction patterns. Besides further establishing a genetic connection, it might be a way to develop more proactive means of gathering data around the phenomenon. No one may volunteer to be bait, but if they’re already being contacted…why not carry along an EMF meter or have a sensor nearby?
This might be the means by which contact is established. It’s inserted into bloodlines. It is definitely the way the phenomenon spreads through families. If I’m a contactee and your not and we have kids, now our kids are contactees. You just infected my family. Thanks.
This might be a marker or beacon to allow further contact between two beings from different worlds. Researchers at Skinwalker Ranch experienced the “Hitchhiker Effect.” Where people who had previously had no paranormal experiences began having them, after they left the ranch. Then people close to them began having the experiences. It transferred like a virus. Here again we see an example of the phenomenon being related to our physiology and biology. This presents an opportunity for research.
The UFO Phenomenon Involves High Strangeness
Abductions might be the hardest point to accept, because of its implications regarding our own safety
The second hardest point for many researchers to accept is the phenomenon involves “high strangeness.” The term was coined by the late astronomer J. Allen Hynek to incorporate the stranger side of UFO encounters. This includes poltergeist activity (sounds of people in the house), cryptids (creatures that only exist in legend e.g. Sasquatch) and the infamous Men in Black. Hynek was the lead scientist on project Blue Book for the Air Force. He knew what he was talking about. Mind you, he began his career as a UFO skeptic.
Author John Keel thought the “Men in Black” might be the key to the whole thing. He wrote about them during the UFO flap which yielded his book “The Mothman Prophecies.” The Men in Black Keel was most interested in, were the kind witnesses considered not human. Keel went to great lengths to document and verify what he saw during that time, and his book is widely read and respected among the research community. The events in Keel’s book took place over a year of “high strangeness” in Point Pleasant West Virginia during the 1960’s. These events bear a striking similarity to modern accounts and reports yielded from the study of Skinwalker Ranch.
Keel documented many of the elements of the UFO phenomenon which seem absurd. And that’s the rub…everyone who gets into UFO research is looking at those flying objects as advanced ships a la “Star Trek” and hoping to meet a Vulcan. When they encounter data that demonstrates the UFO phenomenon is more suggestive of an interdimensional or mysterious intelligence, they become more likely to reject it based on their own bias.
Skinwalker Ranch is the perfect example. The USG spent time and money studying the ranch. The program studying UAP (which yielded the Tic-Tac videos) was a part of the Skinwalker Ranch program. Many elements of high strangeness (cryptids, portals, poltergeists) were observed and recorded at the ranch along with UFOs, establishing a rock solid connection between the two. The incidents happened during the private (Bigelow) study that preceded the government program and the study that is currently following it (Fugal). Backed by similar incidents in Point Pleasant, West Virginia and Bradshaw Ranch, Arizona this seems a solid line of inquiry. Unless you simply dismiss the ranch because of what it implies, but that would be silly.
Again, that’s why it’s important to suspend the question of origin. It gets in the way of the data, and we’re always trying to make the data fit into a point of origin for these objects. We do this to make them into something we understand. Yet, evidence defies categorization and the phenomenon is not to be trusted. It can lead us to believe it’s from where ever it would like to be from that day.
The Phenomenon is Deceptive
It takes two sides to have a conspiracy. You can’t have a conspiracy of one. Well, you can but it would be boring. If we consider the hidden existence of the UFO phenomenon a conspiracy. The one side is keeping it hidden (the government) and the other side is staying hidden (the phenomenon). It’s not like it just shows up at the White House, dangling over O’hare Airport or hovering over downtown Phoenix. OK. It did those things, but it’s pretty shy and has managed to stay out of the spotlight for (maybe) thousands of years.
Which lead us to wonder what abductees and contactees have heard during their experiences. Have any of them heard where the UFOs are from and why they are here? They have, and they’ve heard a lot of different stories. People with remarkably similar stories to “alien” abductions were also abducted by Faeries and other creatures of myth. Yet, the template of their encounter (which was documented) is very similar to the template of an “alien abduction.”
This indicates abduction and (possible) genetic manipulation has been occurring in bloodlines for as long as the objects have been here (which is likely thousands of years). This might be the “why” of the UFO phenomenon. We might be lab rats in a big genetic experiment, and those in charge of the experiment might not be extra-terrestrial. The purpose of the experiment might be as difficult to comprehend as a lab rat trying to understand a vaccine. Yet, at least the rat knows it’s in an experiment.
It seems less necessary to understand the purpose of the experiment (quantum entanglement, hybridization, genetic, immunity or reproductive material, alteration of human DNA long-term etc.) than to acknowledge the fact that it looks like an experiment. Medical and physical research on the people affected and the patterns that emerge will likely divulge the central reason it is interacting with humanity.
In “Dimensions” Vallee argues that these abductions are an attempt at misdirection, and the phenomenon is impacting our belief systems in order to teach humanity something. UFO related phenomenon are part of a performance that acts as a control system by altering our behavior as a species over time. He questions why such a powerful species would need humanity for something so simple as reproductive material. And if it’s DNA they want…why go through all of the trouble of abductions? We have much simpler ways of collecting DNA. Ya know…like spit.
It’s a good question. Yet, in our view that doesn’t mean that something else physical isn’t taking place during the abduction scenario. Something else isn’t added or removed. To us, it looks like all of these (phenomenon) staged abductions are just ways of spicing up getting the milk from the cows.
We all have a habit of overthinking the phenomenon. For example, in the Nimitz encounter the pilot who engaged the tic-tac UAP felt like he was in a dog fight and was beaten at every move. When the naval jets left to go to the rendezvous point. The UAP was already there waiting for them. From our POV it sounds obvious. The UAP was saying “everything you can do I can do better, and you couldn’t even run from me.” Simple definitions. Scientists sometimes have a hard time seeing simple definitions. Police officers talk about seeing the world in simple definitions, because those are most often correct in their line of work. In simple terms, the Nimitz encounter was a show of force. That is what the pilots felt they witnessed. A show of force.
That attitude doesn’t sound like peace loving space bros. It sounds like someone saying: “we can beat you anytime we want.” That’s a warning. It’s a gorilla beating its chest. This fits into the overall attitude of the phenomenon. It’s doing what it wants when it wants and it wants us to know it from time to time. There is a general lack of mutual respect here…and the phenom might not be as sophisticated as we are in some ways (or as familiar with human thought). You don’t have to be smart or cool to run fast. These things may have been born with these capabilities. It may have involved no more sophistication or development to demonstrate them than the ability to run fast.
They may not be trying to teach us anything. They might be doing what they normally do, and messing with us when they get bored, and that sounds almost human or at least animal. This is consistent with some of the behavior evidenced at Skinwalker Ranch where the phenomenon broke equipment, hid a pack of prize bulls and put on cosmic light shows. The experiences were even tailored to individuals. The stories from the ranch don’t sound like it was teaching people something to us. It sounds like a cat playing with a ball of yarn.
The forms chosen when taking a human or interacting with a human might involve the same amount of forethought as a child choosing from a box full of old costumes. “I don’t think I’ll wear the Mothman today. I wanna be an alien grey.” Although abductees and experiencers say the forms they interacted with are as real as flesh and blood, and there is further evidence the phenomenon takes definite shape in some of the physical traces it leaves, these forms may be only temporary or chosen for the purpose of the task.
This includes the shape of the crafts and their form. While the US Government is very likely in possession of both a craft and occupants from Roswell, New Mexico and Varghina, Brazil, the craft and bodies are likely nuts & blots and flesh & blood. The phenomenon is not strictly visionary and capable of full materialization in the physical world.
Theory: People don’t report being abducted by Faeries anymore. The Phenomenon is deceptive. We don’t believe in faeries anymore. Similar beings to faeries are a part of the mythology of cultures worldwide (Japanese Kami, Middle Eastern Djinn). So, it had to choose a form which had a similarly “magical” capability. It needed a form that could do things beyond our imagination and it needed us to believe that it could. So, it chose aliens. This is more or less the conclusion of many researchers (Vallee, Keel et al), and appears to be the the conclusion of the author of the Pentagon report as well. It is also the most likely conclusion from our POV.
This makes it difficult to explain when someone asks a question like “Do you believe in Bigfoot?” I think Bigfoot is as real as a grey alien. They are real for the moment. Whether or not they were independently intelligent and conscious for the time they exist is not known. Though a number of abductees and experiencers believe the grey aliens are a form of organic robot. All of it might be staged.
Vallee refers to these forms, craft and beings as “interaction icons.” It’s as good a name as any. The form is chosen based on the individual and the situation. Whether or not the form is controlled by an individual or mass intelligence is unknown, but the point on which we agree most is: The forms it displays are not the true shape of the phenomenon. Some of those forms might be its original shape, but we would have no way of knowing whether it prefers the Mothman shape to the Sylph shape.
Thus, we take what we can from this. The phenomenon is deceptive. Its true form is unknown, and the same phenomenon and patterns are present regardless of the form of craft or physical body. Faerie abductions are the same as insectoid-reptilian abductions which are the same as grey alien abductions. It’s the same thing.
In this theory, it might be easier to think of our reality as a video game, and prior to entering the game the phenomenon chooses a ship, body and mission to complete each level.
This theory tends to fall into the larger research category of “interdimensional hypotheses.” It is seen as opposed to the “extra-terrestrial hypotheses” which sees the earth as being visited by a variety of extra-terrestrial species. This division is spurious. An extra-terrestrial species could have all of the capabilities mentioned in this article, just as easily as an interdimensional species. Our science fiction creates these categories. The data merely suggests we’re dealing with something our fiction would relegate to an interdimensional entity. Whether or not this is accurate is less important as what it says about the nature of the phenomenon.
The Phenomenon is Powerful
Whether or not these beings are from the 8th dimension or Orion’s belt they have the capabilities we mentioned. This includes: traveling at impossible speed, trans-medium travel, telepathy, teleportation, matter manipulation/materialization, clairvoyance or future prediction et al. These capabilities make them vastly more powerful than a pack of Vulcans. The propensity for deception combined with these capabilities makes it unlikely we will find to the keys to unlocking the most basic questions of who they are or where they are from in the near term. Because these capabilities give them the ability to hide those answers from us. So, it doesn’t really matter if they are interdimensional or extraterrestrial. What is the nature of their interaction with humanity? This we can discern. We know us. We can talk to us. We’re sometimes reasonable….
The most concrete link to the phenomenon and humans is through the abduction phenomenon. There has been some study of people who’ve been abducted and Professor Gerry Nolan has been studying them. The results of his data may indicate the nature of biological or genetic changes abductees experience. The nature of these changes will provide some clue as to the focus of the phenomenon’s interest in us. For example, if they’re taking from or enhancing our immune systems, it might be to boost their own immunity.
The other group of humans worthy of more study are those who’ve come into proximity with a UFO. In our article “UFOs and Brain Damage: Stranger Danger” we delve further into this subject, but it gets complex. The radiation signature left on humans after close contact with UFOs is similar to that of individuals affected by “Havana Syndrome.” In both cases, it’s bad. People who come into close contact with UFOs tend to get irradiated.
The Phenomenon is Callous
This last part is difficult to take. It’s the part that should put a fire under Congress to improve efforts toward disclosure. People are getting hurt. There are anecdotal cases of people who say they’ve been helped by a UFO related experience. There is a whole book here in which people claim to have been healed by a UFO related experience. Some cases of UFO healing have medical evidence associated. It is likely that a small minority of UFO cases have yielded positive effects. That’s the good news.
The bad news is the vast majority of reported cases involve negative health effects derived from close contact with UFOs. The best (collected) data we have in the public to support this claim comes from the Pentagon’s report titled: Anomalous Acute and Subacute Field Effects on Human and Biological Tissues. The report compiled decades of research conducted on individuals who’d come close to UFOs and attempted to identify what the effect was on humans.
From the DIA “Sub Acute” report mentioned
The results were bad. The report is worth reading and the index is worth looking into as well. The index mentions the cases used in compiling the report. There are a lot of them. Immune system issues are repeatedly reported following a UFO experience, along with non-ionized radiation effects and pregnancies. The fetus is removed from the mother prior to birth.
Analysis: We keep asking ourselves…why are they here? And yet the Pentagon’s own report indicates there is a genetic experimentation program in place. We all see the dots. Everyone is afraid to connect them. No one wants to cause a panic. The connection between abductions and families speaks to a genetic component to the phenomenon. Humanity might be a resource. That’s the bad news. No one wants to wipe out a resource. That’s the good news.
Resources aren’t treated like friends. The nature of our interactions with the phenomenon, when taken en masse, appear to be the relationship between a group of lab animals and researchers. Simple definitions: The researchers protect and avoid contact and don’t harm the lab animals…unless it’s part of an experiment or the gathering of resources. Also, farmers don’t shoot their cows…mostly.
However, the phenomenon will defend itself when attacked, and harm humans when it sees the need. Which seems consistent with the researcher – lab animal – or resource dynamic. Do we live in a lab or on a farm might be the better question?
Disclosure and Future Study
To sum up we have a: 1) Ancient worldwide intelligence 2) Extremely powerful/capable 3) Interacts and Abducts Humans 4) Is strange and absurd 5) Remains hidden
When we look at just those five points, the lack of disclosure and acceptance among academia and media make sense. The lack of forthcoming information from world governments makes sense. While humans have a remarkable capacity for adaptation and (in today’s world) perhaps apathy…accepting all of this would be disruptive. Some people wouldn’t take it well.
Currently, polls show 41% of the US believes some UFOs have been alien spacecraft. This is up 8 points from the last poll, likely due to the more serious way the discussion is being conducted. The “Tic-Tac videos” and scientists such as Harvard Chair of Astrophysics, Avi Loeb engaging with the subject in a serious way has had a positive effect. The more people who accept the phenomenon and demand answers, the harder the answers will be to hide. Even if they are prematurely declaring it extra-terrestrial.
Yet, disclosure may not bring answers. The ambiguity is likely one reason for the lack of disclosure. World governments don’t know what this is. They don’t want to cause a panic among their own people, and they don’t want to tell rival nations what they know about the phenomenon. Mastering UFO technology might give a nation an unbeatable edge on the battlefield. If your opponent believes you might be ahead of them on this track, why would you tell them you don’t even know where to find the track?
So, how do we in the public learn more about the phenomenon from our little ant hill? We should do what we do best. Gather data, categorize it and analyze the patterns. We gather pieces (wavelengths, bio-signatures, sensor data), we combine this with witness reports and credible research to create and eliminate hypotheses. More money into research will help.
It is likely Project Galileo will trigger more questions, more research and more money. Those of us with some information on the subject can help those who don’t by encouraging open minds. Accepting that objects we can’t explain are flying around our skies is a big step for people. We’re not even there yet…still at 41%. We’re a long way off from people accepting they are interacting with something(s) much more strange and powerful than us.
A Nimitz “Tic Tac Encounter” image – fair use
This website was begun with the same mentality of gathering evidence and analysis. After learning UFOs were real, we began collecting related pieces. We created a standard of evidence, so we would only count the relevant pieces, and two years later we wound up here. Our first summary or thesis to date is something akin to the Keel, Valle Ultraterrestrial – Interdimensional Hypotheses with a bit of Mac Tonnies Cryptoterrestrials thrown in because we think they’re from here or they live here, maybe just off to the side.
The human-animal behavior evidenced means they’re either imitating us, related to us or they are us. The fact they do us little harm means we’re important to them, either a resource or an experiment. Which is arguably the same in its effect upon us.
The various categories on the site coordinate to the shape of the phenomenon as we see it. We’ve gone to great lengths to demonstrate with credible links and research the evidence which suggested this summary. UFOs, Cryptids, Poltergeists, Ancient Mysteries, and Strange Science. All of that might just seem like your standard list of the paranormal…but it began with UFOs. Just UFOs. We wanted to know how they flew.
Reccomendations: Hypotheses developed for experimentation should incorporate the current state and suggestions of the evidence. More attention needs to be paid to the human connection and genetic testing. Less focus on things like propulsion make sense, (the phenomenon demonstrates capabilities far beyond our own). Paranormal hotspots such as Skinwalker Ranch are UFO stories. The events that happened there are related to UFOs, and there is a lot of corroborative evidence in the public if one doesn’t trust the USG. The data gleaned from the ranch should be incorporated into UFO hypotheses slated for experimentation. Three major scientific studies, numerous scientists, researchers and they keep filming UAP on the TV show…something is there. Something repeatable, and it says a lot about the phenomenon.
The research brought us here and this is better than ignorance. It’s tempting to just shrug your shoulders and smile when people ask what UFOs are. It’s easier to just say “I don’t know,” but that’s not true. We know a lot about this phenomenon. We just need to look at it without objection and without bias. Occasionally, we need to have the courage to explore this phenomenon without a hypothesis.
If it toys with our expectations…let us have no expectations.
Appendix:
Without going into too much detail, for your notes and ours, we’ll collect trends we’ve seen when looking through credible sightings and data. These are not requirements or guidelines. They’re just trends. Things that keep turning up and might mean something to determining some of the bigger questions around the phenomonenon.
The phenomenon is not just attracted to Nuclear energy, but all types of energy generation. UFOs are seen around many different types of power plants. Leading researchers to wonder if they are recharging their batteries.
The phenomenon is often seen around volcanoes and mountains. Areas that have seen a lot of geological activity. As these UFOs are transmedium, they have been seen passing into mountains and volcanoes. Leading some researchers to theorize there are bases structures for these entities within the earth.
There are an unusual amount of odd disappearances which involve reports of associated paranormal phenomenon around National Parks.
There is a long list of ranchers who associate cattle mutilations and researchers with UFOs. Cattle mutilations are loaded with evidence. Energy signatures, incision marks, types of organs removed.
Crop circles are both man made and some seem to have anomalous origins. The way the stalks/vegetation are depressed and its orientation appear to be the best way to determine whether or not what you’re seeing is anomalous.
Some cases of “Havana Syndrome” bear the hallmarks of UAP energy signatures.
There is some resemblance in both appearance and behavior of entities seen while under the influence of the drug DMT and UFO entities. The study of entities seen while on DMT is continuing.
Cryptid events are often reported by couples engaged in romantic behavior. The classic B movie trope of monsters attacking the hormonal teenage couple is somewhat warranted. Hormones or pheromones may cause a reaction in the phenomenon.
Numerous USO (Unidentified Submersible Object) have been seen my submarines and the public. The objects are moving at impossibly fast speeds, indicating the water may not be affecting its travel. They can travel through the sky, earth and water….no problem.
Similar to Skinwalker Ranch, Bradshaw Ranch has been the source of UFO and Cryptid reports. We wondered if it had the same set of electromagnetic anomalies. So, we went out there and took a look…
Sedona, Arizona is known for its beautiful scenery and luxurious accommodations. It also houses a variety of new age and paranormal interests. Crystal shops run along highway 89a, filled with books on the occult and new age philosophy. Meditation is a common practice.
UFO tours are coming and going all hours of the night, and of course, psychics have predicted the perfect place to plant their practice. Much of this embrace of the strange can be attributed to the fact: Sedona is purported to house an energy vortex. Or…eight of them.
“Vortexes are enhanced energy sites that facilitate prayer, meditation, mind-body healing, and creative thinking. The Vortexes are NOT electric or magnetic. Those labels were meant symbolically.”
The pamphlet details the location of these alleged vortices as well as their purported effect on the visitor. “Upflow” areas are believed to help visitors achieve a higher outward perspective and see the bigger picture. “Inflow” areas are intended to help the visitor look inward, and achieve a greater understanding of the universe within.
Red Rocks – Sedona
Numerous attempts to measure the vortices have been made. Yet, this is likely why the pamphlet says right at the top “NOT electric or magnetic.” We found no evidence the vortices could be measured along the electromagnetic spectrum. Neither in the research nor in the field (tested with a basic emf detector). The reason at least one very familiar scientist believes the vortices exist is related to the effects on visitors’ psyche and health.
Measurable or not. We went to Sedona in March and found plenty of people eager to get to each vortex. Since Coronavirus hit in 2019, national park usage is surging. Sedona is seeing the same influx of visitors as places like the Grand Canyon. It is indeed beautiful to behold, but unfortunately our UFO tour was cancelled due to poor weather.
Interestingly enough, reading the reviews on the UFO tours lead one to believe they are likely to be seen on each tour. This may lead some to believe they are all hoaxes, and perhaps some are, but people ARE seeing UFO and UAP with gen 3 night vision.
Sedona (and Arizona in general) is a UFO hotspot with many sightings being reported in the area. There is no real reason to believe sightings like the one in the video below from Texas are not possible in the area.
So, we’ve established Sedona has a propensity for the unknown. Vortexes, UFOs and lots of true believers in the area. Amidst this paranormal hotspot is a hotter paranormal hotspot: Bradshaw Ranch.
It sits right on highway 89a and is now owned by the US government for the stated purpose of climate research. However, the previous owners of the Bradshaw Ranch reported the same frequent and unusual paranormal events as those reported on Skinwalker Ranch.
Linda Bradshaw owned the ranch for 50 years and wrote a book with a local UFO researcher named Tom Dongo called “Merging Dimensions.” Linda describes orbs regularly flying around the ranch, strange alien-grey like entities being spotted and repeated sightings of a Sasquatch like creature.
The incidents did not occur the entire time the Bradshaw’s owned the ranch and began in the early 90’s. Some of the incidents were witnessed by more than one person along with pictures of UFOs. The most dramatic of these incidents occurred when the Bradshaw’s son experienced a missing-time/abduction event.
Years later, Mysterious Universe reports in 2013 a film crew came to cover some of the high strangeness for an episode of a Discovery Channel show called “Uncovering Aliens.” A member of the film crew wandered away and was surrounded by disembodied voices.
He experienced missing time and his watch was malfunctioning. Though this moment didn’t make it into the episode of the show, we found it more compelling than the show itself.
By our own veracity system, events which have multiple witnesses over time and photographic evidence are considered “Likely True.” Yet, what we’re missing, like in so many paranormal cases, is something measurable.
This might be because we don’t have the tools to measure what’s there or…there’s nothing there. It’s good to keep an open mind to both possibilities.
Linda said the paranormal events stalled in the late 1990’s. Her conclusion was that the ranch was home to some form of dimensional portal. It was the only thing that made sense given the disparate entities she had seen: alien-greys, dinosaurs, sasquatch and more.
The US Government bought the ranch from the Bradshaws for climate change research in 2003, and that program has distributed some of their data. We found the soil samples to be particularly interesting as they are quite normal for the area.
Most importantly, we didn’t see anything in the soil itself which should be particularly magnetic. Skinwalker Ranch has confirmed cryptid, poltergeist phenomenon and UFO sightings, but also reported a number of anomalies along the electromagnetic spectrum.
All of the UFO tour itineraries we found online made the area around the ranch a stop on their tour…..A mystery we couldn’t resist.
The area around the ranch is available for hiking and rustic (bring your own water and dig a hole to potty) dispersed camping. We followed National Forest Road 525 off of Highway 89a to a stream bed within a mile of the ranch. Our plan was to hike for a little while along the stream bed along the edge of the ranch.
lat and long is on the image. Google maps.
Given the history of the ranch, we were curious to see if we found any EMF anomalies (similar to those found at Skinwalker Ranch) and brought along a metal detector to scan the area around the ground should we find any.
As mentioned, the area is being monitored for climate change research, but we tried to stay far enough away from the Ranch to avoid electronics. Thanks to the climate research numerous soil samples were available online. We saw nothing that should be especially electromagnetic.
And yet…we found some spikes. A bunch. Within a few hundred yards of the dirt path we started finding unusually high readings. They seemed to move. The highest readings were up to 60 mG but there were others in the smaller range. We used a metal detector to look for sources.
We noted nothing around us or any cell towers nearby. We’ve used the same detector in a busy urban residential area and have not found any readings this high.
We reset the detector a number of times with repeated anomalous results and retested it that night in a residential area to see if it found anything. It found nothing. There could be electronics at the ranch as part of research or something else we missed which caused this. Yet, the question we began with was can we find EMF anomalies similar to those found at Skinwalker Ranch at Bradshaw Ranch?
Our conclusion is Yes, but needs further research/validation. We intend to go back to Bradshaw with some better equipment and find out more about the field we were detecting. The basic tack meter we had picked up electromagnetic radiation. Enough to the point, where we considered leaving. If the 60 mG signal increased or continued to follow us, we were prepared to make a judicious retreat.
We didn’t have Gen 3 Night Vision (happy to take anyone’s spare) so we filmed the area where we found the anomalies with a full spectrum (IR and UV) “phasm cam.” We went through the footage in slow-mo and found nothing. If anyone is interested let us know and we’ll post it to youtube. So, with better equipment we can find more about the field we were detecting and what, if anything, it would take to see it.
We thought the IR/UV was worth a shot. If people can see UFOs with Gen 3 Night Vision, maybe something that close would be visible with a basic ghost cam. Researchers say they can see ghosts with ghost cams. The Bradshaws reported poltergeist activity. You can see the logic… Once we find out more about the signal we caught, we’ll know where it sits on the electromagnetic spectrum.
If it’s something we want to want to see, knowing more about the signal will tell us where to look. We’re making the assumption, based on the fact UFOs are seen (even in government footage) on Gen 3 Night Vision, they are visible somewhere between 700nm-1000nm just outside the visible spectrum. Most Gen 3 Night Vision owners seem to report their night vision works best around 850nm. The UV of the ghost cam also covers the higher part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Visible Light on the Spectrum. Image credit NASA
Yet, this is also making the assumption they’re always visible on that part of the spectrum. Since they’re not always on the visible on the visible spectrum. Why do we think they would always be visible on the slightly less visible spectrum? We don’t know, and we won’t know, unless we look.
There’s no reason the public can’t investigate what academia won’t. Anyone can go back there with a more advanced EMF detector and poke around. Let us know what you find, and we’ll add it to the file.
The fact the US Government bought this ranch which has the same characteristics as Skinwalker Ranch is odd. Online rumors the government is covering up some sort of portal are plentiful. That said, we looked at the soil research and they’re doing climate research there. If the government is conducting any other research there, we saw no evidence.
So, our big question is…has anyone asked the government climate researchers if they saw something strange? Seems like there was a consistent state of weird at the ranch. If it’s now flooded with trained observers, have any of them seen an orb? Good question for a follow up. We’ll keep the Bradshaw Ranch case file open.
There are varying definitions, but a Fortean follows the anomalous researcher and writer tradition of Charles Fort. Charles Fort (1874- 1932) wrote numerous articles and books involving unexplained scientific and paranormal events.
He is regarded by many to be the god-father of UFOlogy, the discoverer of ball lightning and the inventor of the term “teleportation.” Could any anomalous researcher match this curriculum vitae? We think not, but we endeavor to persevere.
As do many, in their own unique ways. Some Forteans focus on one aspect of the phenomenon. Faerie religions and the Fay are a favorite topic of many. You can find articles on faeries and ultrahumans in copies of the Fortean Times. Other Forteans form societies, groups or organizations.
There are a number of them, and they all perform research in their own way. However, it’s worth noting that Fort himself chose to turn away from the first Fortean Society to bear his name. So, one doesn’t need to join any group or receive anyone’s blessing to become a Fortean.
From the Fortean Winds POV: In order to become a Fortean one needs only curiosity and an open mind. Fort rejected scientific dogma. He often used humor to make his point. This doesn’t mean he rejected science. He didn’t allow theory to overcome data. UFOs or UAP are the perfect example.
Fort followed the subject closely. He was an early proponent of the extra-terrestrial hypothesis. In 2019, the Government admitted (again) that UFOs were real and NASA administrator Bill Nelson considers the extra-terrestrial hypotheses plausible.
Charles Fort – 1920 – Public Domain
Some of Fort’s hypotheses were tongue-in-cheek. He knew they were ridiculous, and put them out as a way of “trolling” science. This has value. He would not allow science to reject a world filled with anomalies and the unexplained. However, today people often confuse humor with fact, and when it comes to the subject of the unexplained this has created a distortion.
I believe nothing. I have shut myself away from the rocks and wisdoms of ages, and from the so-called great teachers of all time, and perhaps because of that isolation I am given to bizarre hospitalities. I shut the front door upon Christ and Einstein, and at the back door hold out a welcoming hand to little frogs and periwinkles. I believe nothing of my own that I have ever written. I cannot accept that the products of minds are subject-matter for beliefs. But I accept, with reservations that give me freedom to ridicule the statement at any other time, that showers of an edible substance that has not been traced to an origin upon this earth, have fallen from the sky, in Asia Minor.
Charles Fort (Lo! )1931
To illustrate this we would point to the second most famous Fortean of all time: John A. Keel. He wrote “The Mothman Prophecies” and a number of other books regarding anomalous subjects. While Fort did much of his research in the library, Keel was prone to adventure.
He visited Point Pleasant, West Virginia in the 1960’s and became a part of the infamous UFO and cryptid flap during that era. He visited Egypt to look for ancient anomalies and saw a UFO. Like Fort, Keel was a bit of a loner. Many of his investigations were done by himself, and he chose not to join any particular group.
Fortean Winds is a collective made up of private and anonymous researchers. We have no organization and rarely agree on anything. This is healthy in our opinion.
So, if you’re that type of person who needs a place to publish your research…please reach out. The only commonality we have is our data driven approach to the phenomenon. We do what we can to separate our theory from data. Because theory is always changing…
John A. Keel author of “The Mothman Prophecies” Vanity Fair.
Due to his experiences in Point Pleasant, Keel adopted a different view of UFOs and the paranormal in general stating: “I abandoned the extraterrestrial hypothesis in 1967, when my own field investigations disclosed an astonishing overlap between psychic phenomena and UFOs,” Keel wrote.
“The objects and apparitions do not necessarily originate on another planet and may not even exist as permanent constructions of matter. It is more likely that we see what we want to see and interpret such visions according to our contemporary beliefs.”
Keel’s work bears a striking similarity to the current events and theories surrounding Skinwalker Ranch.
Keel coined the term “ultraterrestrial.” It featured heavily in his book “The Eighth Tower” and was meant to give readers his evolved view of the phenomenon toward the end of his career.
The term “ultraterrestrial” was a way of getting people to stop thinking about the entities behind UFOs as E.T.’s from science fiction, and more like interdimensional beings or what’s commonly associated with demons and evil spirits.
He felt this term was a failure as people began to name the ultraterrestrials and assign them personalities. It became its own form of research when it was merely meant as a literary device. They forgot John A. Keel’s first maxim: “Never Form a Belief.”
Theorize, hypothesize, guess, joke….but never form a belief. We’re looking for anomalous phenomenon and trying to show people it exists. That’s it. As you can see by looking at Fort and Keel. The reason they are so well known is they found real anomalies. They didn’t know what they found.
There are many other Forteans continuing to fight the good fight by pointing out that mysteries still happen every day. Some of them focus on taking field reports and following up on sightings.
This is valuable data, and no doubt the people who witnessed the events are pleased to find someone who believes them. We can’t imagine how alone that must make someone feel, to witness the unknown and be called mad. It’s awful.
We don’t typically add single witness accounts to our research because they’re too hard to validate, but that doesn’t mean we don’t believe people. This is our own brand of Fortean research and you can read more about our approach in our about section.
However, those firsthand accounts are important and we read as many as we can. Groups like “The Singular Fortean Society” are publishing detailed reports of anomalous activity frequently. As we look for patterns in the data, we always need more data.
The term “Fortean winds” specifically refers to a phenomenon described by Fort in which strange events seem to occur in clusters or waves, often coinciding with unusual weather patterns or changes in atmospheric conditions.
For example, there might be a sudden increase in reports of UFO sightings or mysterious creatures seen in the woods during a period of stormy weather. This term has become a popular expression among paranormal researchers and enthusiasts, and is often used to describe strange and unexplained phenomena that seem to occur in inexplicable patterns or waves.
So, what is a Fortean? A Fortean is someone who researches the anomalous or unexplained. They are doing it in groups, they are doing it by themselves. They are doing it for no money, because there’s no money in it. Sure there are con-artists out there, selling all the answers for money.
Yet, if they have all the answers, they’re not researching the unexplained because they have all the answers. We don’t have the answers. We have data, and we have theory. We’re just trying to understand it better. To us, that’s what a Fortean is. So, congratulations. You just became a Fortean.
The document discusses the health impacts of exposure to electromagnetic fields from anomalous vehicles, linking cases of symptoms resembling Havana Syndrome to proximity with UFOs. It highlights significant findings on injuries, including neurological effects and the complexities of the energy involved, while acknowledging limitations in study design and sources of evidence.
We mentioned the danger of getting close to a UFO (or other objects associated with the term paranormal) in our article Skinwalker Ranch: Tricksters & Flying Saucers. They appear to emit a harmful radiation, and have already caused the hospitalization of two persons appearing on the History Channel Show: The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch.
Thomas Winterton is a caretaker and cast member in the Skinwalker Ranch series. He developed symptoms similar to Havana Syndrome.
Because my head injury happened during the same time period, with similar symptoms and injuries, any articles regarding the "Havana Syndrome" always catch my attention. https://t.co/xWTrItDNyr
“Havana Syndrome” is a set of symptoms often reported by US diplomats and other officials. The cause of the set of symptoms is unknown, and the symptoms range from nausea to internal organ and brain damage. Thomas Winterton is not a US diplomat or official as far as we know. So, his case is anomalous.
It’s possible many other people in the world are being affected by “Havana Syndrome.” Yet, only US diplomats and officials are being tested for it.
Yet, it’s also possible Thomas Winterton was targeted by a malicious state actor simply because he is working on a location the US government sees as sensitive.
Dr. Garry Nolan is a Stanford Professor of Pathology and an expert on…many things and seems to think Winterton’s case was caused by a malicious state actor (we’re speculating it’s Winterton he referenced). As Vice News reports; Dr. Nolan is studying both materials which may have come from UFO or UAP and people affected by coming into contact with these phenomenon.
He is especially well suited to the task of analyzing people who’ve come into contact with UAP as he is the founder of 8 biotech companies and listed among Stanford’s Top 25 inventors. It’s fortunate he chose to spend the last ten years looking into cases of people who’ve been affected by their proximity to UFOs, as they don’t have anywhere else to turn.
Most people won’t even believe they came into contact with something anomalous, much less their health has been negatively impacted. Yet, Dr. Nolan describes some of their injuries to Vice as if they had stood too close to an electrical transformer.
So close it fried your insides while leaving your outside looking relatively unharmed.
UFO McMinniville Oregon May 1950
Dr. Nolan states a quarter of the patients died from their injuries. The patients who died had symptoms similar to those of people affected by “Havana Syndrome.” Yet, Havana Syndrome is assumed to be caused by a malicious state actor with an energy weapon. Not flying saucers.
Thus, we find a disconnect. Why would some cases of UFO/UAP look like Havana Syndrome and others not? Three possibliities:
A malicious state actor is utilizing technology similar to energy emitted by UAP in order to harm US individuals.
All of these individuals are being affected by UAP(unknown origins and pilots).
A state actor is using a maser (microwave emitting laser) or similar device on some individuals and others are being effected by UAP.
Of these three possibilities: the second is (perhaps) most concerning as the motive and culprit would remain completely mysterious. Although, the third possibility seems most likely, based on the evidence.
Update: 4/26/22 Dr. Nolan appeared on the “Theory of Everything” podcast and clarified his statement. He estimated 15% of the cases he and others encountered appeared to have unique effects likely related to UAP. The other 85% of cases could have been caused by malicious individuals.
Those other 85% of cases were caused by an abundance of electromagnetic energy we as humans can produce (such as x-rays, gamma rays, microwaves). That does not mean they were NOT caused by UAP. It means we cannot rule out human intervention prima facie. Given the proximity of victims such as Thomas Winterton to the phenomenon, it seems likely to us his injury was caused by the phenomenon. That’s not a stretch…..It just happened to be waves we can produce which caused it.
So, to be clear, from the Fortean Winds POV: All of the Havana Syndrome cases in which the target is not a potential victim of a state actor (not a diplomat, military, government), should be considered potential victims of UAP/Phenomenon proximity.
UFO 1947 Project Blue Book
Dr. Christopher Green has been the go-to guy for the US Government and UAP Brain damage for a long time, he told the Daily Mail ” he believed some of the injuries he has seen arose from patients being too close to ‘subtle, highly powered, highly modulated microwaves’ and suggested in his study that soldiers could have been accidentally hit with powerful radio or electromagnetic frequencies from the propulsion systems of these strange hovering and rapidly moving aircraft.”
Dr. Green was the author of the paper Clinical Medical Acute & Subacute Field Effects on Human Dermal & Neurological Tissues, which was authorized as a part of a 22 million dollar Pentagon program into the study of UFOs. Dr. Green said he dealt with hundreds of patients who were injured or died after contact with UFO/UAP. In January of 2022 the US Intelligence community (with different levels of confidence) agreed Havana Syndrome was likely not being caused a foreign or state actor and had yet to determine a specific source. At what point do we connect the dots…
As to the materials Dr. Nolan has been analyzing he stated the following to Vice.
” Mostly, there’s nothing unusual about them except that everywhere you look in the metal, the composition is different, which is odd. It’s what we call inhomogeneous. That’s a fancy way of saying ‘incompletely mixed.’ The common thing about all the materials that I’ve looked at so far, and there’s about a dozen, is that almost none of them are uniform. They’re all these hodgepodge mixtures. Each individual case will be composed of a similar set of elements, but they will be inhomogeneous. “
From the Fortean Winds POV, this looks like something is putting things together on the fly. The inhomogeneous metal might indicate something which transitions from a state of energy to a solid state of matter, and is sometimes sloppy while doing it. Other samples Dr. Nolan examined showed truly anomalous materials. Elements put together in ways human science -as we know it- cannot.
Again we see an odd mix of abilities that appear to be far beyond us, but also possibly disorganized and haphazard. This should go without saying, but flying saucers and paranormal phenomenon should be avoided until we know more about them.
It’s an energy we don’t yet understand. You wouldn’t poke your finger into an electrical transformer right? Same amount of (most likely much more) energy in those weird little flying objects….

OVERALL SUMMARY
This document presents a comprehensive review of the effects of electromagnetic fields, especially those emanating from anomalous vehicles and systems, on human biological tissues. It documents various case studies where individuals exposed to these fields experienced a range of symptoms, from skin erythema to neurological effects. The document, prepared by the Defense Intelligence Agency, does not conduct new experiments but rather compiles and analyzes existing case studies and medical data.
The findings suggest significant biophysical impacts of electromagnetic fields on human health, although the nature of these fields and their sources remain complex and not fully understood. The quality of the study is based on observational data, with consistent results reported across different cases. However, it lacks the rigor of controlled experimental designs and acknowledges the unusual context and challenges in interpreting the data.
Skinwalker Ranch has garnered attention due to numerous UFO sightings, electromagnetic anomalies, and cattle mutilations, backed by significant government interest and research funding. Eyewitness accounts describe strange encounters with orbs, raising questions about their intent and behavior. Overall, the phenomena suggest complex intelligences, warranting continued investigation into their nature and effects on humans.
Follow up to our first post regarding Skinwalker Ranch. There’s a lot to unpack here. First, let’s review the most credible evidence we have from Skinwalker Ranch.
UFOs have been spotted on the Ranch and Videotaped at least twice in public footage.
Numerous electromagnetic anomalies were recorded. (by Bigelow, USG and History Channel Show)
Millions of dollars spent prior to government involvement by billionaire Bob Bigelow.
Whatever is found by Bigelow is enough to inspire the US Government to spend a good deal more on a 22 million dollar contract.
Eyewitness testimony, including multiple witnesses to the same event: poltergeists, cryptids, intelligent metal, portals all occur in this timeframe.
Brandon Fugal and team continue to study the ranch and make some of the findings public on the History Channel Show. They’ve mentioned on the show some form of continued relationship with the government exists. As in: continuing to share findings with the USG(United States Government).
Which is great, but we would assume this also means some information is still not being made public.
If one does not accept eyewitness testimony that’s fine. We see no reason not to accept all of the witness testimony which was backed by multiple observers, and particularly those with material evidence.
So, why did the government stop researching the program?
Bob Bigelow and the Government determined whatever was there didn’t want to be found. It kept breaking their equipment. Showing up where it couldn’t be seen and not appearing where it could. Better yet, breaking the equipment, then appearing afterward to get everyone excited. “We got em! Awww the GoPro is broken…”
You have to admit: That’s funny.
The intelligence(s) there seem to have a wicked sense of humor. Some times it gets out of hand and people get hurt. The medical effects from what appears to be dangerous levels of radiation are also quite real and well documented.
We’re pretty sure at this point you don’t want to get too close to a UFO, glowing orb or paranormal phenomenon in general. They all appear to emit high levels of potentially dangerous radiation, indicating high levels of an energy we don’t quite understand.
Dr. Colm Kelleher, who was involved in USG Skinwalker Ranch program, recalls an event in the clip below where an orb (type of ufo seen above) passed through the shoulder of an individual who was driving his car.
It sounds like it was curious at first, then got too close. The individual developed harmful radiation effects (including a rare carcinoma) which required extensive treatment. Fortunately he recovered, but part of the UFO program (and the program which housed Skinwalker Ranch) is devoted to studying the effects of UFO encounters on humans.
This point seems important to the study of UFOs in general. Clearly, if the intelligence behind the orb which passed through the individual wanted to kill the individual it could have.
As Dr Kelleher recalls, there were three orbs approaching the vehicle. Two passed through the vehicle, one away from the individuals (It was a father and daughter) and the third passed through his shoulder. This is odd. It begs questions.
Did it intend to harm the individual? Did it crash? Was it still learning to fly and made a mistake?
Speculation:
Option 1: The orb didn’t intend to hurt the individual, it was curious and got too close. The three objects were acting independently. Indicating they were driven by different intelligences. Furthermore, if it wanted to hurt the individual all three objects could have passed through his vitals. So, Option 1 is they approached because they were curious.
Option 2: Is that it was collecting information. Information about the individual and it didn’t care if it harmed him or not. It was executing a mission or a program. Passing through his shoulder gave it the information it needed. Yet, if it were a machine one would assume it would act with precision. This seems sloppy and unplanned. Impetuous.
Which leads us to the most fascinating thing about Skinwalker Ranch. The character evidenced at the Ranch, might be the same character as all of the UFO sightings in the world.
If they’re all part of the same phenomenon, the ranch is our view into how the phenomenon views us.
So far, I’d say the evidence points to a few traits which are open to change based on new information. The phenomenon is:
Secretive, Has a desire to be known to some, but stay out of the public. This demonstrates some form of advanced intelligence
Radioactive, Everything sits on the electromagnetic spectrum. Naturally, these are no different.
What strikes me as odd, is the sheer amount of weirdness against the lack of further evidence. This leads some to dismiss the ranch, but I think it’s very telling. Whatever is there seems to like the attention.
The disorganization of it all (some orbs and UFOs getting too close), indicates it’s more than one intelligence at the ranch.
Although, the strongest argument against the fact that it’s multiple intelligences involved in UFOs is the fact we’re all still here. The people at Skinwalker Ranch are filming a TV show as we speak. Why wouldn’t a bunch of flying, disorganized, massively powerful intelligent objects hurt more people? Why wouldn’t more of them be too curious and fly too close, harming more of us in the process? Why wouldn’t more of them crash?
The whole of evidence between UFOs and Skinwalker Ranch suggests more than one intelligence at work, (imperfect intelligences at that). Suggesting they’re not machines, unless advanced to the point where random actions and jokes become en vogue.
If Skinwalker Ranch speaks for the phenomenon: it doesn’t think much of us, doesn’t want to communicate directly, wants our attention, but doesn’t wasn’t our attention, and hurts us when it gets too close.
This sounds like a bad relationship.
Wrapping up our second post in the Skinwalker Ranch series and there will most definitely be more along with a summary of conclusions. We’ll collect them all in our Poltergeist Case Files section.
Conclusion: Skinwalker Ranch worthy of continued study. Expect more posts as we continue to focus on the character of the phenomenon evidenced.
