On this web page we will post up the latest major reports from local and international sources. So keep watching this page for your latest UFO updates. 

• 13/03/97 Phoenix Arizona - A large triangular UFO was seen by Hundreds of people. Go to CNN
• 24/06/97 A new US Air Force document being released on Tuesday reportedly says that so-called space aliens allegedly sighted in the New Mexico desert in the 1940s were actually Air Force dummies used in high-altitude parachute drops. Go to CNN
• 22/05/98 Just in:- Hundreds of people all over Zimbabwe saw bright flashes of light followed by a loud roar at around 22:20 hours last night (21/05/98). Speculations about the what caused the flashes and loud noise are uncertain, until further reports come in. I would say from the reports we have that it was a meteor. A photographer said that hundreds of dollars worth of batteries he uses for his equipment went dead! The roar and rumble sound was so loud that it even shook many houses here.
• 2/09/98 Rensselaer engineers are working with US Air Force and US Army scientists to make laser propulsion a reality. Flight tests of a scale model lightcraft are being conducted at White Sands Missile Range, using PLVTS, a high energy CO2 laser. Recent flight tests have reached an altitude of 51 feet. The ultimate height of these tests was restricted to approximately 50 feet due to range safety considerations.

The optical rear surface of the lightcraft is used to focus the laser beam into the engine. The concept is illustrated bellow. The focused laser beam is absorbed by the air inside the engine, creating a laser supported detonation. The high pressure, high temperature plasma created by the laser absorption cools and expands out the rear of the vehicle, producing the thrust which propels the lightcraft into the sky.

14/12/98 Here is a picture of a leonid meteor photographed during the peak of the leonid shower last month. 1000 meteors where recorded during the peak of the shower, which was best observed in eastern Asia. Such large numbers are only observed once every 33 years. the last time the leonids had such a shower was in 1966, were as many as 10 000 per hour were seen during a single hour at it's peak! We are hoping that 1999 will put on an even better show, which will be best observed in north Africa and Europe.
