Not every Ozzy Osbourne fan was watching the stage while the entertainer sang “Suicide Solution” in Devore, CA, August 14, 2010, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

One fan looked toward the Little Dipper and watched a triangle UFO flying “higher than any conventional aircraft.”

“The shape was triangular with rounded tips,” the witness stated. “The color of the craft was a pale gray. The middle looking on edgewise was slightly rounded and thicker in the middle, which held 3 round lights in a line strobe-like. Colors were green, yellow and pinkish purple. The lights were like a strobe that blinked and flashed 3-5 times before it disappeared behind a tree that it fit behind.”

“The color of the craft was a pale gray. The middle looking on edgewise was slightly rounded and thicker in the middle, which held 3 round lights in a line strobe-like. Colors were green, yellow and pinkish purple. The lights were like a strobe that blinked and flashed 3-5 times before it disappeared behind a tree that it fit behind.”

Witnessing a UFO while watching an event is reported occasionally. We wrote about a February 18, 2010, sighting: Image: UFO hovers over Arlington’s Cowboys Stadium.

The following is the unedited and as yet uninvestigated report filed with MUFON. Please keep in mind that most UFO reports can be explained as something natural or manmade. If California MUFON investigates and reports back on this case, I will release an update. Please report UFO activity to MUFON.com.

CA, August 14, 2010 – Ozz Fest UFO seen over Devore. MUFON Case # 25107.
This is a report I received from my daughter whom I shall refer to as Bink. She wishes to remain anonymous.

During the concert Ozzy was playing the song Suicide Solution and the audience was looking at Ozzy. Bink glanced towards the Little Dipper at the time.

A UFO appears away from the stage while everyone (she assumes) was watching towards the stage away from the UFO.

This is the report directly. I collected the report as it was fresh in her mind.

The shape was triangular with rounded tips. The color of the craft was a pale gray. The middle looking on edgewise was slightly rounded and thicker in the middle, which held 3 round lights in a line strobe-like. Colors were green, yellow and pinkish purple. The lights were like a strobe that blinked and flashed 3-5 times before it disappeared behind a tree that it fit behind. Bink said the distance was up higher than any conventional aircraft. The craft made no noise but it flew horizontally then flew up then hovered then shook as it left. Bink recognized that it was unlike anything she had ever seen before and she seen it as it was (a weird UFO). She has never seen anything like this before and it was the first thing she said to me when she got home that night with her Dad who didn’t see a thing. She said “Guess who just saw a freaking UFO” were her words exactly.

I will add to this post as I cull new sightings…

This is a site I recently uncovered with a number of UFO sightings clips… I suggest you check out the one called “2010 UFO OVNI– LA California.

Here’s a report of a fireball from July 31st, culled from http://unitedstatesufo.blogspot.com/2010/07/ball-of-fire-ufo-over-simi-valley.html

Although the case of UK hacker Gary McKinnon has no specific bearing on southern California, this video, in which he explains his intentions to help “old age pensioners” by liberating the free energy technology he is convinced is held by the US and UK governments–is not to be missed.

Last night Steve Bassett gave an impassioned talk (as he always does) on the ghettoization of exopolitics and the exclusion of abductees and contactees, for the group Evolver LA: http://www.evolver.net

Here is a short excerpt. And on a related note, Bassett is looking to relocate to the west coast and is looking for a space. Please contact me if you might have something for him! He’s an electrifying speaker, and the work he’s done with the Paradigm Research Group is of the utmost importance.

Jim Moseley is a true original and a great wit. He’s been covering the UFO beat for more years than you’ve probably been alive, and keep the old school going by continuing to publish his zine, Saucer Smear, a number of future issues can be had for a reasonable donation. He likes Greyhounds and we shared a few at the last (probably ever) NUFOC here in bea-u-tiful yet putrid Hollywood California, in 2004. Recently he appeared on Texas LOWFI head Smiles Lewis’ kickass radio show, PsiOp. To get Mosely’s snail mail addy, and for a link to his radio appearance, please continue reading. I promise you won’t be disappointed. He is rare among Ufology personalities in that he has no agenda.

PsiOp Radio 116 – 100523 with guest James Moseley

Coming up this Sunday night SMiles and Mack are honored to speak with legendary (or at least infamous) UFO investigator and publisher James Moseley. Jim has been investigating and writing about flying saucers (and the circus of beliefs and freaks that surround the subject) for nearly six decades. He publishes what is perhaps the longest running UFO newsletter in the world. Unknown by most UFO “buffs” and maligned by several of his ufological peers, Jim Moseley is an American Treasure – and was once a Treasure Hunter!

Please join us in welcoming Supreme Commander Moseley to the PsiOp-Radio show this Sunday night, LIVE from 7-9pm CST via the ANOMALY RADIO and AMERICAN FREEDOM RADIO networks:

Shockingly Close to the Truth! : Confessions of a Grave-Robbing Ufologist

Jim Moseley’s adult life has been devoted to real estate, pre-Columbian antiquities, and flying saucers (UFOs).

In the late 1950s, Moseley spent a total of about three years living in Peru, where he succeeded in excavating and exporting hundreds, if not thousands, of Inca and pre-Inca artifacts, dating as far back as the pre-Christian era. These were highly artistic objects of ceramic, wood, silver, and gold.

For several years in the 1980s Moseley was proprietor of a pre-Columbian art gallery in Key West, where he sold artifacts from Peru and other South American countries, as well as rare wood carvings from various parts of Africa. In 1992 he donated his remaining Peruvian material to the Graves Museum of Archaeology and Natural History, located in Dania, Florida, near Fort Lauderdale. There they are on permanent display.

Jim Moseley’s other unusual interest through the years has been in UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects). In this regard he has appeared on countless radio and television shows throughout the United States. In the late 196Oss and early 1970’s, he lectured as an expert on UFOs to over one hundred colleges around the country. Beginning in 1954, he published a semi-professional magazine called SAUCER NEWS, which reached a peak subscription circulation of almost 10,000.

Currently Moseley publishes a UFO “trade journal”, mainly of interest to a few hundred people who make up the “hard core” of flying saucer buffs. Humor and UFO-related gossip are the main characteristics of this non-scheduled newsletter, which is called “Saucer Smear”. This newsletter takes an attitude of benign skepticism toward the more extreme UFO beliefs, and generally reflects the various ways in which Moseley has mellowed in his thinking over the years. To find out just what that thinking is, one would have to become a “non-subscriber” to “Saucer Smear”. There are no subscribers, but donations are warmly welcomed.

More to come…

Because the UFO community is predisposed to a strictly mechanistic “nuts and bolts” interpretation of the UFO phenomena, they have ignored these learned men’s revelations. They forget that the ability to travel through the cosmos must require an interdimensional component. The alien interstellar craft do not travel like our “pop can” Apollos that use outdated combustion technologies. They must morph the very fabric of “reality” and they must somehow bend space-time itself. And the UFO often creates states of “non-ordinary reality” for those who get too near them. Percieving this other-dimensional reality may require altering our very abilities to perceive.

THE “OZ” FACTOR

Randles posits that such “outworlders” are contacting humans using consciousness itself, rather than with simply sophisticated technology. But it is not all “paraphysical.” In rare cases, Randles believes, the subjective impression of the experiencer is so strong that it manipulates “objective” reality. That is, a person who is caught in the midst of this “Oz Factor” may actually be able to photograph a craft. Viewing something that is so far removed from their frame of reference, they feel as though they’ve entered a world of fantasy. But they have not- seeing the alien involves mental and physical interplay. Communication with the alien by mind, or telepathy, is even mentioned. It is at once physical and paraphysical. Other researchers such as John Keel and Dr. Jacques Vallee hint at this strange interplay in many other cases.

TIMOTHY LEARY

The late Timonthy Leary is of course the controversial to-this-day futurist, writer and scientist. He was also a well-known researcher and vocal enthusiast of LSD and psychedelics during the 1960s. A psychologist, a Berkeley grad and a Harvard Professor- it is less known that Leary was also an enthusiast about space travel and contact with the alien. 

In the 1980s, Leary began a program of study he called “SMILE.” This was the acronym for “Space Migration,” “Intelligence Increase” and “Life Extension.” He believed that we will ultimately return to the stars from whence we came. This could only be accomplished by mastery of instellar travel via the interdimensional path; the expansion of intelligence and consciousness that would be needed to communicate with the alien; and by implementing life extension technologies so that we be able to live to manipulate time. He developed this concept in 1980 and expanded on it in his 1993 book, “The Game of Life”. 

The documentary “Timothy Leary’s Dead” clarified Leary’s stance on ET. Leary felt that intelligent life exists throughout infinite space. But he felt that it was less “literal” and “nuts and bolts” than Ufologists believed, and that it was more of a mental, spiritual and interdimensional phenomena. He did not believe that spacecraft were the only thing that ET used to travel space. He said that it was unlikely that “ET packaged alien beings in spaceships and sent them hundreds of light-years through space so that they could land in farm pastures and rape little old ladies in Iowa.” He believed that mind, matter and space were far more complex than that simplistic model. Leary, though, was a bit contradicted on this though. When he passed, his own ashes were shot into space in a rocket.

I once saw Timothy Leary at a lecture in Boston. But it was in the late 1980s -by extreme chance- that I happened to actually personally meet Dr. Leary. While casually strolling down the beach on vacation in Puerto Vallarta, I noticed a white-haired, wild-looking wiseman. As I approached nearer, it became very clear that the face was familiar. The man was gazing over and through the Mexican ocean with intense contemplation. As I passed by, I was compelled to ask: “Dr. Leary?” The reply: “Yes, that’s me.” And it was. But I tested him, having seen him before: “I once saw you a few years ago doing stand-up comedy at a club when I lived in Boston.” He said: “Oh, no kidding. I remember that club on Commonwealth Ave, The Paradise.” In fact, Leary had a small “Evening with Timothy Leary” tour of clubs during that time period. His “act” was a semi-lecture offering his take on history and on current events. He was incredibly entertaining and irreverent with his razor-sharp wit and cerebral humor. Satisfied that it was indeed him, we began small chit chat about the big universe:

I told Leary about my interest in other worlds, as we both stood there before the endless expanse of blue sky and sea. Leary told me that he knew that there was other intelligent life in places “that we do not know about because we are to dumb to see them.” I asked him if he meant that we do not yet have the telescopes to view them. He replied no, that is not what he meant. He meant that “we do not open up our minds to those whose minds are far more vast and open than our own.” He explained that the instellar dynamic requires the interdimensional dynamic. To deal with the bending of space-time, we must “bend” our minds. He echoed Arthur C. Clark that their technology to us would be indistinguishable from magic. We are not yet prepared to enter the world where the physical and the paraphysical intermingle. Until we change our very minds, we cannot go to a such a malleable place where space, time and and the very structure of matter are manipulated. It is not a physical limitation, he added. It was a limitation of consciousness. ET works beyond our framework of reference. 

Realizing we were on vacation and that we shouldn’t be talking so many deep things, I said goodbye and walked on down the beach, my head hurting from the chance meeting.

JOHN MACK 

The late Dr. John Mack was a Pulitzer-prize winner and a Professor and Psychiatrist at Harvard Medical School. Mack advocated for the reality of aliens and UFOs. His controversial approach to the phenomena led him to be subjected to an official, fourteen-month long peer inquiry of his techniques and beliefs. It was the first time in Harvard history that a tenured professor was investigated in such a manner. Mack was ultimately found to be in good standing in the academic community. 

Mack was also a researcher of the history of “visionary” human experiences, and he was interested in the transformational aspects of alien encounters. In the Winter of 1969-70, Mack was studying under the tutelage of British psychiatrist Dr. R.D. Laing. It is believed that this is when Mack began his personal quest for spiritual understanding by using LSD. An associate of LSD therapy researcher Stan Grof (see below) Mack is believed he may have been inspired to take the journey by Dr. Grof as well.

In the late 1980s, when living in Boston, I joined the New England Skeptics association. Though a “believer” in ET, I enjoyed the input of “critical thinkers” and a dialog with those who were not “believers.” We met every couple of months as a small group loosely affiliated with the national CSICOP organization. On one occassion, I decided to invite Dr. Mack to one of our meetings. They occured in Cambridge where Mack lived and worked, and we would offer him a complimentary meal at a highly-rated Asian restaurant off Mass Ave, where the group often met. He graciously accepted our invitation. He was willing to “go in with the lions” in discussing the ET reality. He also showed that he believed what he said, and that what he says on the UFO subject he appreciates that many cannot yet accept. 

But what stuck me most about Dr. Mack was his insistence that the way that we think about reality does not apply when that reality is not ours. He said to me that visiting aliens are so alien to us in their dimensional and mental capabilities that they can even curl the very fabric of space and time. We cannot deal with them unless we place ourselves in a state of altered reality. He said that we must expand our minds -not just our technology- to reach the stars.

TERENCE MCKENNA

JOHN LILLY

Dr. John Lilly is a pioneering researcher in psychoanalysis, inter-species communication and in the use of isolation tanks, LSD and other psychedelics and meditative techniques to study the dynamics of mind and enhanced consciousness. Lilly is perhaps most well known for his research attempts in man-dolphin communication. 

Little known is that Lilly’s interest in “interspecies communication” and altered states extended not only to terrestrial non-humans like dolphins- but to the extraterrestrial alien as well. Many years ago, Lilly developed a model/metaphor describing an extraterrestrial higher intelligence which may influence life events. He called this ECCO or Earth Coincidence Control Office. The alien’s inherent ability to warp space/time to traverse the cosmos may mean that they can also alter our own “reality” and the way that we percieve it. If they can warp the “fabric of reality” to get here, they must be able to warp our “fabric of reality” when they arrive here. 

STANISLAV GROF

Stanislav Grof is a renowned transpersonal MD and psychiatrist who pioneered the use of psychedelic psychotherapy in the 1960s to resolve issues of identity, birth, personality, and death. When LSD fell out of government funding favor, he spearheaded the development of alternative routes to altered conscious, including a breathwork technique known today as “Holotropic Breathwork.” Grof dialogued with John Mack at Harvard about the UFO :

“Conventional approaches to this area are characterized by thinking in terms of a simplistic dichotomy: real material events involving extraterrestrial spacecraft and alien visitors from another part of the physical universe versus hallucinations of the psychotic person.” Grof continues that the discoveries though of modern theoretical and experimental physics have, “dramatically changed the understanding of the physical universe and the relationship between consciousness and matter.” Grof said that the research done to establish the physical reality of UFOs is greatly important, but that it is not sufficient for understanding these phenomena. He speaks of our “limitations to things alien” that are imposed by our outmoded model of reality.

In researching non-ordinary states of consciousness to contact the alien, Grof stated: “the UFO flies in through the hole of my psyche that was opened up by transformational experience.”

JACK PARSONS, ALEISTER & THE ALIEN

Aleister Crowley was a famed English occultist and ceremonial magician. A 2002 poll lists Crowley in the “Top 100″ of most influential Britons of all time. He was associated with many noted philosophers, writers and artists during his life. Like Arthur C. Clark, Crowley believed “magic” to be indistinguishable from advanced technology.

Crowley was also associated with scientists of the day, including the gifted rocket propulsion scientist Jack Parsons from Cal Tech. Parsons was a genius engineer who was co-founder of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Aerojet. Werner Von Braun acknowledged Crowley’s friend Parsons as the “true father of space flight.” Crowley shared an interest with Parsons in consuming peyote, mescaline and hashish to “contemplate the cosmos” in a larger way than just rockets. 

In 1944, Parsons headed the California Ordo Templi Orientis (OTO) which was Crowley’s “mystical lodge.” The organization was dedicated to shattering the confines of three-dimensional space. Concerned with Parson’s recklessness when dealing with “higher energies,” Crowley eventually thought Parson’s to be a “mad scientist” who dangerously tested extremes and who lacked the “balance” and “art” of a mystic.

As far back as 1918, Crowley had initiated a quest to contact and capture the image of the alien. While in New York, over a period of three months, he repeatedly invoked an other-world entity that he called, “Lam.” Pictured above, the creature bears a startling resemblance to aliens that we picture today. Both share a large hairless head, enlongated eyes, mouth slit, vestigial nose, no discernable ears and smallish bodies. Crowley -like his science ward Parsons- believed that by “working” a combination of ritual, intent and mind alterants they could create a “portal” by which extra-cosmic influences could enter the known world. Crowley died in 1947, the year that the “portal” of the modern UFO phenomena opened- and the year that many believe ET fell to Earth.

INNER SPACE TO OUTER SPACE

If we open ourselves to the unique insights provided of these non-UFOlogists, we begin to understand the true nature of the UFO. Valuable information on the alien is imparted to us by those who walk life as psychiatrists and psychonauts, ecologists and experimental scientists. It will require a multi-disciplinary and inter-disciplinary approach to get to ET. It will mean that we must conquer both Inner and Outer Space.
