FTR #105 Update on the Political Implications of the UFO Phenomenon

Posted August 3, 1998 by FTR, in Category: For The Record

(One 30-minute segment)

This program presents information supplemental to past discussion of the reality of UFOs in the earth’s atmosphere (built by human beings, not by supposed aliens “from outer space.”) After discussing a decision by scientists in late June of 1998 to take the UFO phenomenon seriously, the broadcast touches on the death within a four-day period of three Nazi rocket scientists who worked on the U.S. rocket and space program after World War II. Much of the program centers on more information about the pioneering development of so-called flying saucers by the Third Reich during the later stages of World War II. New information from a book published in 1998 highlights the work of Reimar and Walter Horten, Nazi aviation pioneers who developed a supersonic fighter aircraft that looked like “a flying dinner plate.” This prototype was operational by 1944. There are substantive indications that the work of the Horten brothers and other Nazi aeronautical engineers was continued and improved upon by the United States, Britain, Argentina and other countries in the post-war period. (See also several other 30-minute segments on this topic, particularly those from July of 1997, as well as a lecture entitled The Political Implications of The UFO Phenomenon and the ET Myth. They are all available from Spitfire.) The broadcast concludes with a look at the type of spin control that has perpetuated the illusion that UFOs are either imaginary or extraterrestrial in nature. (Recorded in August of 1998.) (See also: FTRs 66, 67, 68)
