Experimental
Ufology: A New Trail to Blaze
Numerous
theories have been promoted throughout the world by the most famous
researchers in their efforts to find a conclusive answer to the "UFO
phenomenon". Essays are seldom accompanied of investigative research that
substantiates these theories, and it is for this very reason that UFO
investigators are castigated almost daily by members of the scientific
community. A
group of Argentinean ufologists have begun pursuing a different path,
believing that they have an "important ceiling" as a result of the absence
of technological and financial resources, but basically due to the lack of
knowledge that they must face in every
investigation. Science
has the elements and knowledge necessary to generate the conditions that
bring us close to an answer, if not to find conclusive answers about the
nature of the UFO phenomenon. Belief that the phenomenon is real and does
exist, in the words of nuclear physicist Stanton Friedman, led a
scientific commission in December 1997 to conclude that there was a indeed
a possibility of studying the phenomenon and moreover, that commissions of
the world's air forces were concerned about finding an explanation to this
enigma. Mind you, at no time are we discussing extraterrestrials,
infraterrestrials, or dimensional phenomena. We are talking about
reality. Argentinean
researcher Silvia Pérez Simondini is working earnestly on technology
integration based on experimental ufology. Silvia has designed equipment
able to detect field variations (magnetic, thermal, frequencies, etc.) in
order to produce a topographic survey in one of the areas with the highest
concentration of UFO sightings in the Republic of Argentina: Victoria,
province of Entre Rios. The parameters obtained are analyzed in detail to
create a series of statistics which will ultimately enable us to make the
first conclusions in these fields. This
project was first implemented in the city of Victoria on the 12th and 13th
of March, 1999. A number of researchers took part in this symposium: Pablo
Warncroukt, Carlos Iurchuk, the Visión OVNI Group, Nestor Gaioli, Pablo
Pouchet, Christian Pérez Simondini, Raul Benítez and Andrea Pérez
Simondini. Given that this was the initial test, many aspects must still
be perfected, since the basic measurements were not taken into
consideration. It
is worth noting that on the night of March 12, the experiment undertaken
on the summit of Cerro La Matanza twice recorded significant alterations
of the magnetic field. On the 13th, experiments took place in a field near
Victoria which brought about constant activations of the
equipment. There
is still much to be done. It is imperative to incorporate new equipment
that will establish measurements from other fields so that as this
research is being undertaken, we may annotate the normal conditions of the
terrain and the sites where they are made. These studies shall continue to
take place, and surely followers of the El Dragón Invisible website
(www.oocities.org/area51/3184) It
is also worth noting that we have manage to gain the support of the Paraná
Air Base in the form of technical assistance (radar readings) and computer
services. This enables us to quickly determine the nature of heavenly
objects and artifacts of a terrestrial provenance. We have also enlisted
the services of Prof. Massimo Teodorani, who places his skills at the
disposal of this humble research team. I
will take advantage of this opportunity to encourage all specialists and
technicians who may provide data, information and suggestions regarding
this research work to please contact us at the address which appears at
the foot of this page. Information
on Iridium Satellites Over
the past five years, the development of satellite technology has unleashed
a significant communications war, not only based on the financial
investment involved, but the technological developments involved in
providing better service to the consumer. The
ideal cellular phone is the one that seeks to keep a customer in touch in
and with any part of the world, and without any interference or
interruptions. This seemed like a pipe dream up until only a few years
ago, but it is part of today's reality. Even if the system does not
operate as advertised, it nonetheless exists and has produced improvements
in satellite technology. This is what I would like to elaborate upon. UFO
researchers now find ourselves faced with a new type of satellite
--Iridium--which moves through space with completely different
characteristics. During
the month of January [1999] there were sightings in the communities of
Victoria and Diamante, in the Entre Ríos province; Pueblo Esther, Santa
Fé, and Rosario in the Santa Fé province; Santiago del Estero, Mendoza,
Neuquén, Chubut and Misiones--and we also have records for countries such
as Uruguay, Brazil, Chile, Mexico and Costa Rica--of a series of objects
appearing at well-defined times: ten minute sequences with an approximate
duration of between ten and fifteen seconds. Reports
on the foregoing sightings started on Saturday, December 5th at 23:03 Hrs.
with the presence of a light that grew to a size comparable to that of the
full moon and with a powerful light. The powerful light faded gradually as
it diminished in intensity. The direction of observation was toward the
NW. Successive
manifestations followed the same direction, with less luminous intensity
and less time in the following hourly sequence: 23:13/23:23/23:33, gaining
three minutes over the course of the next days. We
have contacted the Air Force in an attempt to capture these observations
on radar. Radar operators have told us that the phenomenon observed does
not appear on their screens, even when receiving notification at the same
time the sighting was being made. The important fact here is that what was
being observed was beyond radar scope, therefore implying that it was an
object beyond Earth's orbit. We
have managed to establish a comparison on the timetables for the sightings
from various locations, achieving a 90% correspondence for the
aforementioned details. The coincidence in times, direction and type of
sighting coincided absolutely. The
abundance of sightings led us to consider that the phenomenon in question
was terrestrial. If there is something the UFO phenomenon does not do, is
follow measurable parameters. This rapidly led us to consider the
possibility of new types of satellites. Our
research led us to satellite manufacturers: there are two systems, Iridium
and GlobalSat. An iridium atom has 82 electrons, which is the number of
satellites operating under this technology, which enables communication
via satellite telephony form any part of the world and to any part of the
world. The cost to the end consumer is considerable (about $3000) with a
charge per minute of $2.50. Technical details on these satellites can be
found at the corresponding websites. [Ms. Pérez reproduces a pre-existing
English paragraph from the website--Ed.]: Conclusion: It
is important to bear such technical considerations in mind, since they
often lead to confusion when on-site research is carried out, given that
witnesses often tend to confuse these satellites with anomalous
observations. Even so, researchers of the UFO phenomenon should integrate
knowledge of this type of technology to their catalogues and
files. |
