| Arrival of Geminids meteor shower means more UFO contacts - HULIQ.com Posted: 05 Oct 2010 09:04 AM PDT  STONEFIELD BEACH, Oregon – This remote state park that touches the Pacific Ocean and the coastal rainforest is where, say local UFO experts, "aliens will show themselves." In fact, the best time to have a "close encounter" with known UFO visitors is "when the Geminids arrives," explains a local UFO hunter who asked not to be identified. "They are not usually seen with the naked eye. Yet, when one really looks, they're there as clear as day." UFO sightings increasing worldwide but still no proof There have been tens of thousands of various systematic studies of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) over the years. For example, the Air Force "Project Blue Book" studies began in 1952 and ended in 1969 with nearly 13,000 UFO reports collected and analyzed. The conclusion is there's "no evidence" of "unidentified" extraterrestrial vehicles. Instead, the Air Force report pointed to "natural phenomena," such as clouds and weather balloons as the cause for these UFO sightings. Moreover, NASA's "Spaceguard" program has an annual funding in the billions to spot and catalog threatening asteroids that may hit the planet and to check out possible UFO's. The European Space Agency also spends billions searching the skies for dangers from outer space. Oregon is a state of UFO believers because sightings are a common occurrence Here in Oregon, there's such people as Paul Slovic who's considered a pioneer in something called "risk-perception research." Slovic is a professor of psychology at the University of Oregon. One of Slavic's is "catastrophic potential" that could come from killer asteroids or aliens from outer space. Since the 1970's, Slovic and his research team have queried people about what risks there are in life. Not surprising, the risk of being hit by space debris or being taken up in a flying saucer is on people's minds. The "Geminds" reference by Oregon coast UFO experts is the annual meteor shower that seems to arrive each fall and winter season with bright colored lights in the sky that this UFO hunter dubs as the "alien's rainbow." In addition, the Oregon coast has long been associated with UFO encounters due to such things as the geologic oddity of rock formations along the coast that some say are makers for UFO visits. Also, reports from numerous UFO watch groups say "UFO sightings are increasing in the U.S. and worldwide. In addition, close encounter reports "are now as common as local weather reports." Various UFO surveys in both the U.S. and Europe this year, point to more than half the people polled as believing in them. "With record numbers of unexplained objects being spotted in the skies over Britain on Saturday night, a huge majority of us reckon alien life exists somewhere in the universe, even if it has yet to touch down on Earth," states recent reports out of England. While local Oregon coast parks service volunteer Peter Kinney thinks such talk is "poppy-cock," the senior citizen also notes "there's always been something strange about Stonefield." In fact, Stonefield is perhaps the most secluded and exclusive of the central Oregon coast parks. There are formally declassified documents at a nearby Newport historic museum points to a period during World War II and then in the late 1950's when "the U.S. government installed numerous secret look out facilities in the area around Cape Perpetua." What's interesting to local UFO hunters is that one of these "stone" lookout bunkers still sits near the top of Cape Perpetua that looks right down on Stonefield Beach. When describing Stonefield Beach, locals have lots to say. "It's sort of prehistoric. There's remains of whales, sea lions and the only place that I know of along the coast where you see dozens of wild rabbits that are huge in size," says Kinney. "And, there's these people who camp out and burn fires amongst the Stonefield rock formations that's creepy." At Stonefield, there's no popular beach spots or shops or restaurants. "There's just death on the beach and the place reeks to high heaven. It's as if someone or something doesn't want the locals or tourists to visit there," says coastal resident Mackenzie Ryan. Ryan also notes: "These strange lights and an eerie glow that seems to light up everything around. You see the light on the drift wood that litters the Stonefield beach, and you see it in the sky over the mountains that sit right behind this beach spot. There's no place like it." Oregon coast served as story location for first X-Files episode At the same time, there's more and more urban myths about the Oregon coast and UFO sightings. And, the popular TV show and movie series the "X-Files" hasn't helped to squelch such rumors. In fact, the X-Files was based on fact along with fiction. The X-Files pointed to crop circles as being commonly cited as "evidence of alien visits." The program also noted that the discovery of life-supporting water in the form of ice on Mars is proof that alien life exists in our universe. Moreover, in the pilot for the highly successful X-Files series, Dana Scully is assigned to work with Fox Mulder, who's an FBI agent that specializes in the paranormal. Together, they travel to the central Oregon coast and Stonefield where Mulder believes several teenagers have been abducted by aliens. While this sounds farfetched, locals say it actually happened.
