If youse guyz find my Flying Saucer, I wants it back.

UFOs ooooo-weee-ooooo....oooo-weeeee-ooooooo (scary music)

loooool. What Bush is most responsible for is making us look like total morons in the international community. People laugh their a''s off at us having Bush as president. What group of people would choose a president who has no skill at communicating at an international level.

This is great news! We all wondered at the time, what this was all about. I guess we will know very soon. could be we will see more of these in the near future!

Hey JetRanger you want alien phone numbers,just call the white house, its full of aliens. They are strange as they can speak english, but hear none.

Seig Heil Herr MCVet, for bringing to light another glaring DEMOCRAT (circa 1965) cover-up.

[slipster01]

1965? Seems like another Kennedy/Johnson-era Democrat coverup.

NASA has agreed to search it''s archives for the documents - doesn''t mean they will turn anything they find over or make it public in any way. Just that they will look.....

People tend to forget NASA is the political administration of a technical enterprise. Science, per se, remains a secondary consideration, at best.

NASA was sold to the public back in the Sputnik (1957) era as America''s answer to the Russians, and various "gaps", ranging from bombers to missiles.

The current imposture of NASA with regard to space shuttle safety is a case in point. A blue-ribbon scientific panel commissioned by congress following the Columbia reentry disaster presented NASA with a list of recommendations.

To date, however, NASA still has not addressed major concerns such as ice and foam debris. NASA has not developed a viable, in-flight repair kit for the shuttle''s vulnerable leading edge (carbon-on-carbon fiber).

In its July, 2006, launch of the first shuttle since Columbia, NASA claimed it had done all that it could. The shuttle and its crew were held secure and safe by NASA''s fervent hope nothing would go wrong.

That situation persists as NASA adopts low-profile, ad hoc adjustment of its politics to the fact of its technical inadequacy. And yes, there appears to be something of a cost-benefit decision, as well. After all, the remaining shuttles are expensive beasts, and all are due for retirement.

Oh great--now they''re looking into Bushs'' family tree!!!

Well...I pretty much believe in the "Where there''s smoke there''s fire" way of thinking. Too much "smoke" for two long including obvious "ufos" in centuries old paintings for there not to be something to it. Anyone who gives the not possible viewpoint was not a biology student in 1965 when the "conditions for existence of life" did not manage to account for life thriving in boiling volcanic vents in the bottom of the ocean. I think there are a lot of people in the government who still believe the average person "cannot handle the truth". They are exactly the ones who should not be "handling the truth" and keeping it from us. We have a right to know.

Not likely. For of all, there are no "missing" US astronauts - all present and accounted for in 1965. Plus, I''m sure families of these supposed dead astronauts would have noticed they weren''t around anymore. Secondly, I''m sure people in Florida would have noticed an unannounced launch. They are kind of hard to miss for those living around the Cape.

This playing the game of "keep-away" that NASA is doing just provokes the conspiracy theories!
It''s like when a squirming politician says, "no comment!", to charges that are leveled.
C''mon, NASA. You decided to stonewall a report about safety among airlines, and now this.
The Freedom of Information Act shall set you free.

[rafterman1]

I believe the most viable terrestrial explanation was that this UFO, described as acorn-shaped, was a failed Soviet Venus probe (also acorn-shaped) and crashed there. Thus, all the government secrecy in trying to recover it. Against this theory though is that the probe was supposedly on a trajectory nowhere near Pennsylvania at the time.

The GOV. should be forced to show all information and materials found regaurding ALL U.F.O. INVESTIGATIONS .

[tnt1954]

Space Cadets win again.

[tnt1954]

never heard about this ''incident'' in pennsylvania.
was ''star trek'' filmed on location?

"The physics behind star formation, planet building, "Goldilocks" zone placement and water availibility preclude life beyond the simple and unicellular on the overwhelming majority of our worlds. Expecting other planets to have the exact conditions necessary to encourage civilizations as curious as we about "what''s out there" is really shooting the moon."

You make the assumption that all life must be carbon based and use liquid water as a catalyst. Considering the size and diversity of the universe, I say that''s an assumption we can''t rely on. There just simply isn''t enough evidence one way or another to make any kind of estimate as to how populated our universe is (considering that we have only one data point, us). Any attempt to do so would have an unbelievable amount of error associated with it.

[walt1944-2009]

I have seen some strange things in the night skies that didn''t behave like a meteor, so I firmly believe there are UFO''s and they must be intelligently controlled. The key word here is "intelligently" which leaves out the federal government!

SIG HEIL, BUSH!!!
