The USS Supply UFO Sighting

Weird...


The USS Supply UFO Sighting

By J.M.Sinclair

On February 28, 1904 the US navy steam and sail schooner USS Supply was about 400 miles southwest of San Francisco. Several members of the crew sighted what they described as "Meteors", for lack of a better term in 1904, that would form the basis for one of the most remarkable early sightings in UFO history. Collecting the accounts was Lt. Frank Schofield, who would later become an admiral and Commander-in-Chief of the US pacific Battle Fleet.

Schofield didn't quite know what to make of the accounts, which described the red meteor-like craft flying in what's known as the echelon formation. This formation involves aircraft flying in a diagonal arrangement side by side, a grouping that would be very unlikely for meteors. The red meteors initially appeared below the clouds, something that natural meteorites never do, and moved directly toward the ship. As they came closer, they moved above the clouds, until they seemed to stop moving north, and began moving directly away from the earth. Color alterations were noted in that the objects' dull red color faded as they changed direction. The size of the largest object was described as being "an apparent area of about six suns", and was egg shaped, traveling with the sharp end forward. The other's were smaller, one being about twice the apparent size of the sun, and one about the same size as the sun. The clouds themselves were estimated to be about a mile high, so the craft would have been closer than that as they passed under and through the clouds.

The whole thing lasted a total of two minutes before the clouds obscured the objects, suggesting that the craft were moving very quickly. Schofield noted that all the accounts agreed during this early morning 6 am sighting. Schofield reported the incident in the March, 1904 issue of the Month Weather Review and the incident lay forgotten until later interest in the UFO phenomena developed.

Whatever these objects were, they were not meteors, as evidenced by their seeming ability to fly under, and then through the clouds, finally gaining altitude. The pointed end forward attitude of the egg shaped object is precisely the opposite of what would be expected from a meteor, and the red coloring is not normally one associated with meteors, which usually give off a blue-green or white light. Because of this, the case of the USS Supply remains one of the most interesting early UFO sightings, from a time when no aircraft existed that was capable of the maneuver seen by the ship's crew. Happening just a year after the Wright Brother's flight, no aircraft would have been flying in echelon, which at the time was still a ground troop or ship formation, and the distance from any land eliminates the possibility of manmade aircraft. The sighting has a strangely modern feel to it, with egg-shaped craft being reported throughout the 20th century and to this day.

Whatever they were, the USS Supply UFOs are so early, and so strange that very little other than extra-terrestrial craft can explain just what they were. Further, the crew were from a time when there was no public interest in UFOs, and they would have had little motive to fake or misrepresent the incident. They simply saw what they saw, and described them as meteors, which would have been the closest thing in 1904 to the appearance of the objects. But they couldn't have been meteors, and they couldn't have been aircraft. Whatever they were, they' weren't from here.

House Conservatives Seek Patriot Act Extension
Thursday 12 March 2009
by: Jared Allen | Visit article original @ The Hill


More than a dozen of the GOP's most conservative members on Thursday introduced a bill to reauthorize controversial Patriot Act provisions set to expire later this year.

The group of House Republicans - who include Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.), Conference Chairman Mike Pence (R-Ind.) and Judiciary Ranking Member Lamar Smith (R-Texas) - want to extend for an additional 10 years the ability of national security agencies to conduct "roving" wiretaps, have access to library patron information and greatly expand the reach of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.

Those provisions of the Patriot Act were set to expire this year.

"If there's one thing we can predict about terrorism it's that it's unpredictable," said Smith, the lead sponsor of the Safe and Secure America Act of 2009. "That's why law enforcement and intelligence officials must remain vigilant."

"The national security provisions we're seeking to reauthorize are proven and effective," Smith continued. "They have helped investigators track down terrorists and prevent attacks."

Those provisions in particular drew the ire of liberals and privacy groups who said they trampled on Americans' civil liberties.

But the GOP members who introduced the reauthorization bill shot back that the threat of domestic terrorism is still as real as it was eight years ago.

"Critics of these provisions claim that the terrorist threat has diminished since 2001," Smith said. "But such claims ignore the deadly attacks in London, Madrid, Mumbai and Yemen. If we want to keep Americans - both here and abroad - safe and secure from future terrorist attacks, we need to extend these provisions."

Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) did not sign on as an original cosponsor.

"I've not seen the proposal," Boehner told reporters Thursday. "But the Patriot Act is a part of helping to keep America safe and we've got to do everything we can in this time of economic crisis to protect our citizens from those who'd want to harm us."

Those House Republicans who joined some GOP leaders to introduce the bill include: Judiciary Committee Members: Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.); Rep. Howard Coble (R-N.C.); Rep. Elton Gallegly (R-Calif.); Rep. Daniel Lungren (R-Calif.); Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa); Rep. Trent Franks (R-Ariz.); Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio); Rep. Tom Rooney (R-Fla.); and Rep. Gregg Harper (R-Miss.); and GOP Reps. John Sullivan (R-Okla.); Rep. John Shadegg (R-Ariz.); Rep. Duncan Hunter (Calif.); Rep. Michelle Bachmann (R-Minn.); and Rep. Mary Fallin (R-Okla.).
