UFO Part II (UnansweredQ Ep. 785 / Broadcasted Jan 15, 2011)
That day, the sky was clearer than usual. Last year, around 2:40 p.m., on September 17, Cheol-jin Kang, a college student, looked up at the sky and encounters a peculiar scene. A group of white dots were densely filling up the sky. Each of them were completely round, and the color was a yellowish white color, and it was shining. Cheol-jin Kang / Class of '06, Library Information science, Yonsei Univ.
Among the dots that stayed still, some of them moved to the middle. The surprising thing is, similar flying objects were observed in Mexico in 2004. (Mexico / Korea)
What are these flying objects, that were witnessed in both Mexico and Korea? - At our 7, (the flying object is) at our altitude. - At our 7, (the flying object is) at our altitude.
- You can see it by the clouds. - It looks like two lighthouses. - It looks like two lighthouses.
- Between 7 and 8 o' clock position. - The strange thing is, one dot is leading the others. The Mexican Air Force encounters an unidentified flying object. The objects were shining bright, flying in a straight line. But different from what's visible, the radar was able to detect only three flying objects. The infrared camera on the plane captured 16 flying objects at that time. It is a widely known characteristic of UFOs to be undetected on radar while being visible.

UFOs, a mysterious being that have been attracting attention for decades, appearing and disappearing all across the globe But then, as recent discoveries show, many governments have been conducting research on UFOs, and have been handling these information as top secret. One of the countries that have been secretly investigating UFO incidents is the United Kingdom. The British government have been intermittently releasing top secret UFO documents since 1998. Among the documents released, the most famous one is, the UFO landing incident that took place in a US military base located in Rendlesham Forest, Suffolk on the Christmas of 1980.

It's coming this way. It's definitely coming this way. It's unreal. Now we're observing what appears to be a beam coming down to the ground! The UFO was an equilateral triangle, with sides measuring about 3m. According to the witness, the UFO flew off after a short while. The location where the UFO allegedly landed was dented, and they found higher than average radioactivity readings around those dents. The incident was originally classified as top secret after it was reported, but the British government revealed the document, releasing it to the rest of the world. On March 2007, France also released some 1,600 UFO documents to the public. The documents also contained the famous triangle-shaped flying object witnessed by over 10,000 people in Belgium in 1989, the Eufen Triangular UFO incident. Including the UK and France, many governments are releasing the top secret information to the public. Recently, New Zealand also decided to participate in this movement. The amount of files recently released by the New Zealand government is 12 books, over 2,000 pages. And one-third, 4 books of the 12 books were about the Kaikoura lights. (A UFO was seen in Kaikoura beach) (In the early morning of December 21st, 1978, a plane was passing by this area) Captain Vern Powell claimed that a bright red light followed the plane he was operating, attracting the attention of many people. A television crew from Australia went on board the exact same plane to cover the story and confirm Powell's claims, on December 31st, 10 days after the incident. But then... Quentin Fogarty / TV Reporter
We've just heard from the Wellington radar that we've got an object about a mile behind us and is following us. Let's hope they're friendly. It's really getting uh... a bit frightening.
(inaudible) this... whole formation. It was the moment where UFOs were captured on film for the first time. The object that was detected by the radar fiercely chased the plane that carried the Australian television crew, and then flew at the same speed with the plane. (The plane carrying the Australian television crew was operated by Capt. Bill Startup) Bill Startup / (At that time) Plane Capt.
Hard to say now, but they were quite big. Bill Startup / (At that time) Plane Capt.
But what it was, I don't know. And then all of a sudden, he went straight through, and disappeared into... beyond, and that was it. The cameraman, who was filming from inside the plane with a telephoto lens, took a closer look at the object than anyone else on the plane. Quentin Fogarty / TV Reporter
According to our cameraman, David Crockett, he's been filming it for the past few moments. Quentin Fogarty / TV Reporter
It appears to have a brightly lit bottom, and a transparent sort of sphere on top. So it appears to be like a, a flying saucer. According to his explanations, the UFO is round-shaped, and had a belt around it like Saturn. The mysterious red light flew South with the plane for about half an hour, and instantly vanished. Bill Startup / (At that time) Plane Capt.
What it was, I wouldn't know. The UFO repeatedly came towards, and then ran away from the plane, and sometimes moved rapidly with a jolt. (the movement of the object at that time)
and sometimes moved rapidly with a jolt. Did the New Zealand government find out what it was? According to the report, the Air Force suggested that the passengers on the plane may have witnessed an atmospheric phenomenon, may have confused Venus with a UFO, or the source of light could have been a squid boat, headlights of a car, or a lighthouse. Then, 33 years ago from now, did the 6 witnesses really confuse Venus with a UFO? The time when these witnesses confirmed the flying object is around 12:10 A.M. Using a computer software, we have calculated the time when Venus was up on December 31, 1978. We were able to find out that the time was around 3:20 A.M. The witnesses have already seen the flying object, three hours before Venus was visible in the sky. Therefore, it could not have been Venus. Moreover, the Kaikoura lights were detected on the radar as well. Regarding that matter, the Air Force explained that the radar detected one of the 70 squid boats that were out fishing at that time. But John Cordy, who was the air traffic controller at the Wellington control tower at that time, is confident that it was not a squid boat. John Cordy / (At that time) Air Traffic Controller, Wellington Control Tower
We could see a boat on radar, but it moves very very slowly. This was moving the same speed an Argosy. (The speed was) about 180 knots. John Cordy was also believing that the Kaikoura lights were indeed UFOs. What is it? The remaining physical evidence is the video filmed on that day. After calculating the brightness of the object in the video, we found out the brightness was 26,000 times brighter than the average 100W light bulb. If we calculate the size of the Kaikoura lighting, it is 12m high by about 18 meters wide. Yong-ah Yoon / Department of Film prof., Seoul Institute of the Arts
Under the premise that this image is genuine, it does raise the question, 'what on earth is this?' The imagination of UFOs being signs of alien life forms is not based on any practical evidence or proof yet. Thus, people were excited about the fact that these top secret UFO documents kept by governments could work as evidence and proof of the existence of alien life form. But unfortunately, the explanations that were revealed, were mostly claims that the witness confused a natural phenomenon to a UFO. Moreover, as the governments released their UFO documents, they announced that they will no longer continue in investigating UFOs. Timothy Good, a British author who discloses top secret documents from all over the world by acquiring them from the CIA claims that the UFO files currently released is to 'calm people down.' Timothy Good / Author of 'Above Top Secret'
The Ministry of Defense has released tens of thousands of pages of documents. And you see articles in the newspapers saying, "top secret files, finally revealed!" Nothing top secret has been revealed, apart from through a freedom of information request. Moreover, as long as the United States stays away from revealing information on UFOs, there will not be any meaningful changes. This is because the United States possess large amounts of information on UFOs. Of all the incidents, the Roswell incident that took place in New Mexico, 1947, is famous. A flying saucer crashlanded in the middle of a desert, and four bodies of aliens were known to be found. The US Air Force presents the final report on Roswell, 50 years after the incident in 1997. They conclude that since there were no discovered evidence or proof that supports the existence of UFOs, there are no UFOs. (Walter Haut / Roswell witness) (Walter Haut / Roswell witness)
But then, there was a plot twist. Walter Haut, a public affairs officer at that time, died in December 2005, leaving a will. According to the will, the story of the UFO crashlanding in Roswell, and finding the bodies of aliens, were all true and that he witnessed all these events. (Pheonix, Arizona, 1997)
In 1997, Pheonix, Arizona, many citizens witnessed 9 shining lights. - I got that one on video! - I got that one on video!
- There's four of them! Look, there's three of them altogether. - I got the thrid one, (inaudible) - I got the thrid one, (inaudible)
- There's one behind the chimney. But the US Air Force claims that these are simply flares. But the citizens do not believe the explanation of the Air Force, and demand that they tell the truth. Eventually, state government held an investigation, and announces that they caught the perpetrator. Fife Symington / Former Governor of Arizona
And now I'll ask Officer Stein and his colleagues to escort the accused into the room so that we may all look upon the guilty party. And this just goes to show that you guys are entirely too serious. Governor Fife Symington ends the investigation with a joke. Surprisingly, the word 'UFO' disappears from the press as well. The United States has officially announced that they would neither acknowledge, nor investigate the existence of UFOs. But then, Fife Symington, the Governor of Arizona at that time, states in 2007 that those lights were in fact UFOs. Can the truth be discovered when the US government releases the UFO files? Timothy Good / Author of 'Above Top Secret'
There's bound to be a little bit of disinformation. Spin, to present things in an upbeat light, as happens with everything else in politics. - So the protection (inaudible, of the citizens?) - So the protection (inaudible, of the citizens?)
- For the protection of government. (The truth about UFOs and aliens) (has not been fully revealed yet)
