Major Jesse Marcel Lieutenant Walter Haut General William Blanchard Mack Brazel EXTENSION: Ray Santilli EXTENSION: Glen Dennis Key Witness: Maj. Jesse Marcel When the police and the US army arrived to investigate the crash, Major Marcel was the lead investigator. He was not a involved in the secret projects at Roswell airbase and genuinely did not know what the wreckage was. He looked at the wreckage and told journalists that he had decided that it could be alien. Shortly after, he changed his story and said that it was a weather balloon. 30 years after the Roswell Incident happened, Major Jesse Marcel became one of the most important people supporting the “alien UFO” theory. In 1980 he changed his story again and publicly said that his first idea of it being a UFO was actually the truth. He said that the materials he saw when he investigated were “nothing made on this earth”. He also claimed that a famous photo of him posing with some of the wreckage was faked – he claimed that he was given some tinfoil and wood and told to make it look like that was part of the wreckage, but that it wasn’t actually from the crash. Critics have pointed out that Major Marcel is an unreliable witness who has changed his story multiple times. He also has a history of lying. He has previously claimed to have received multiple medals for shooting down enemy planes, when in fact he has never been in a combat situation and has never been awarded a medal.

  • The Secret History of Extraterrestrials: Advanced Technology And
    The Secret History of Extraterrestrials “With our present knowledge of the cosmos, there is now a real possibility of evolved and intelligent civilizations elsewhere in the vast cosmological space. And possible visitations and even encounters can no longer be ignored. Naturally we must tread with caution and not jump to conclusions too easily and too readily; but we must also keep an open mind and respect those bold investigators who apply rigorous research and common sense to this fascinating although very debated hypothesis. Len Kasten is such an investigator, and his book The Secret History of Extraterrestrials is a must for the libraries of all seekers of truth with unbiased minds.” ROBERT BAUVAL, AUTHOR OF THE ORION MYSTERY , MESSAGE OF THE SPHINX, AND BLACK GENESIS “Len Kasten has provided an up-to-date survey of the vast array of issues that are now emerging into the public consciousness regarding an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race. For those who want to jump right into the pool and not just sit on the side and dangle their feet, take the plunge with The Secret History of Extraterrestrials.” STEPHEN BASSETT, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF PARADIGM RESEARCH GROUP “You can always count on Len Kasten to take you on a spellbinding galactic adventure, for he never fails to seek out ideas and theories that challenge your assumptions of what is true while firing your imagination. Whether in this dimension or another, be it past or future, your travels with Len Kasten will open your mind and introduce you to realities and experiences, you may have mistakenly assumed can exist only as fiction.” PAUL DAVIDS, DIRECTOR/PRODUCER OF JESUS IN INDIA AND EXECUTIVE PRODUCER/COWRITER OF ROSWELL: THE UFO COVERUP “This comprehensive book covers some of the most intriguing UFO and alien-contact cases ever reported.

  • An Inconvenient Harvest
    An Inconvenient Harvest For one seeking enlightenment in the form of new enhanced consciousness and enlarged perceptive faculty, be prepared to divest yourself of all past preconceptions and thought-habits and, with childlike meekness and docility, surrender the mind to the reception of some novel and unexpected truths. Shifting Awareness • Throughout the world there are great megalithic structures which defy conventional explanations. In Egypt are the Great Pyramids of Giza, in Bolivia the megalithic sites of Tiwanaku and Puma Punku, on Easter Island the massive stone heads and in Peru are the massive stone structures of Sacsayhuaman, Ollantaytambo, the temple-like city of Machu Picchu and the plains of Nazca with runways and images which can only be seen from the air. These were all created by a civilization and technology unknown to us. There are even newer discoveries such as the great stone structures and cities uncovered off the coasts of Florida, Cuba, Japan and Spain. The encrusted sea life of the Japanese pyramid has been carbon-dated to 10,000 years ago. The discovery off Spain is consistent with the city of Atlantis. • In 2007 we visited Egypt and discovered that the Sphinx was very likely many thousands of years older than the Great Pyramids and the Great Pyramid may have been built over 12,000 years ago. But what is a mile-high stone image of a half-man half-lion image doing on the surface of Mars? There are even pyramids on Mars. Were they connected to an ancient civilization of Earth? • In Egypt, we were introduced to the story of Isis and Osiris and Horus carved in hieroglyphics and pictures into the wall of a temple.

Moore and Jaime Shandera c:laim they received the •Top Secret/Eyes Only• MJ -12 documents from an unknown source-­ Moore reportedly sought the reaction of his friend Brad Sparks, a respected UFO researcher, to the idea of creating such counterfeit government documents. Sparks strongly recommended against it. Later, when Sparks called Stanton T. Friedman, he was shocked to discover that Friedman defended Moore's Idea. Moore explained to Sparks that his and Friedman's efforts to locate persons who had been involved in (alleged) crashed-saucer recovery operations in New Mexico, and subsequent related events, had run into a dead end. During the April 16, 1983, meeting in Berkeley, Calif., Moore suggested that counterfeit government documents containing crashed-saucer information could be used to induce former military personnel to speak out and ignore their secrecy oaths. Sparks urged Moore not to resort to bogus documents, pointing out that if they contained any factual errors, this would identify the documents as counterfeit to those privy to the true facts. This, Sparks warned, could ruin Moore's reputation. SUN first learned of Sparks' involvement in mid-1991 but be was reluctant to speak out. Subsequent events have overcome his reluctance. These include limited disclosure of Moore's idea of creating bogus documents by Kevin Randle and Don Schmitt in their 1994 book, "The Truth About The UFO Crash At Roswell." In a brief chapter debunking the MJ -12 papers, the book reports: •According to Friedman, among others, Moore had suggested as early as 1982 that he wanted to create Roswell documents, thinking that it might open doors that were closed.
