Something crashed here
|
A mysterious UFO crash in Cyprus 35 years ago may finally be
solved. In the Cyprus Mail, Nathan Morley quotes
Britishsoldier Tom Clarke as saying, "We were all awoken at
about 2 am by a brilliant bluish dazzling bright light in the sky,
what happened next is hard to explain. There was not an
explosion, but we were all hit by a shockwave and fell flat to
the ground. The light just disappeared or went out."
British UFO researcher Gary Heseltine, who edits a monthly
UFO magazine in the UK, says that he has some of the debris
that was collected by the soldiers, who saw the UFO slam
into the Troodos mountain range in Cyprus in 1973. They
were ordered to collect the debris and put it into black plastic
bags, but Clarke managed to confiscate some small pieces of
golden tinted foil (similar to the debris found at
Roswell).
Morley quotes Clarke as saying, "After what seemed like hours
a halt was called and we were all lined up and told that under
no circumstances were we to talk about what we had been
doing and that we were forbidden to take anything from the
site under threat of Court Martial. We were then all taken
from the area by helicopter and flown to [a military base]
where we were interviewed separately. I was asked to
describe exactly what I had seen and was warned again not
to discuss with anyone the events that had occurred."
Several military communication installations are located in the
Troodos mountains. They have also been the setting for
many UFO sightings over the last 50 years.
The debris is from the past, but what about the
future?
Right now, NASA is most interested in whether or not there is
life on
Mars.
Astrobiologists are trying to understand the chemical,
physical, and geological conditions of early Earth that set the
stage for life on our planet, so they can determine if life could
be replicated elsewhere. Tracing the evolutionary pathway
from atoms to life involves the study of the formation of new
molecules within interstellar clouds, the evolution of these
molecules as the clouds condense to form new solar systems,
and the mechanisms by which they are delivered and
combined on planets like Earth and Mars to form suitable
environments for life.
