     Arecibo Wow! (AWOW) is a technosignature research project, which utilizes archived data from the Arecibo Observatory’s telescopes to investigate the nature of signals similar to the famous Wow! Signal detected in 1977 by Ohio State University’s ByThe UFO Chronicles8-26-2025 Big Ear radio telescope. The project aims to both identify these signals and provide robust astrophysical explanations for their origins, thereby contributing to the ongoing search for extraterrestrial intelligence and clarifying the causes of technosignature false positives. The original Wow! Signal, characterized by pronounced intensity and narrow bandwidth near the 1420 MHz hydrogen line, has intrigued scientists for ...

For decades, people who claim encounters with non-human beings have described one detail that is often overlooked: the smell. In his writings and interviews, author Whitley Strieber has highlighted a striking aspect of alien encounters that makes them feel tangible—an unpleasant, unforgettable odor. Reports describe it as a mix of sulfur, burnt cardboard, or ammonia. But why would extraterrestrials smell so bad? Odor as Evidence in Close Encounters Smell has been mentioned in numerous alleged encounters. One famous example is the 1996 Varginha case in Brazil, where witnesses spoke of a strong, putrid odor that lingered in the town after sightings. Similarly, Strieber recalls his own experience in which the presence of strange beings was linked to an ammonia-like smell that filled...

To Whom It May Concern, In two recent interviews, former All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) Deputy Director Timothy Phillips stated that AARO will address select reports of incidents involving UFOs and nuclear weapons in a forthcoming historical report. According to Phillips, AARO determined that a “cascading transformer failure” triggered by an “electrical storm”, and not UFO activity, led to the March 1967 shutdown of a 10-missile “flight” of nuclear-armed Minuteman Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana. Conversely, a 6 June 2025 Wall Street Journal story, citing AARO officials, states that an unannounced Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) test caused the shutdown. However, official u...

Something Non-Human Has Been Here a Long Time: A Scientist’s Journey from Cancer Research to UFO Investigation Dr. Garry Nolan, a Stanford University professor and renowned immunologist, never expected that his decades-long career in cancer and immunology research would one day intersect with UFOs and anomalous phenomena. Yet today, he stands at the crossroads of mainstream science and the mysteries of the unexplained. In an eye-opening interview with Dr. Jordan B. Peterson, Nolan recounts his scientific evolution—from developing groundbreaking biomedical technologies to investigating unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs), anomalous materials, and their potential effects on human biology. A Career Rooted in Cutting-Edge Science Nolan’s scientific credentials are formidable. As ...

     Between 1973 and 2010, I interviewed 167 former/retired US military personnel regarding their nuclear weapons-related UFO encounters. More than a hundred of those accounts were presented in the second edition of my book, UFOs and Nukes: Extraordinary Encounters at Nuclear Weapons Sites. [ad] Since 2010, I’ve more or less ceased investigating the topic, primarily due to advancing age. Recently, however, another military veteran contacted me after reading a post by Joe Murgia on X (@TheUfoJoe) regarding my work. I was of course interested in what he had to say.
