An Age of Magic

Yuri conquered space but it was earth that beat him in the end

I was watching the TV coverage recently regarding the anniversary of Yuri Gargarin’s first trip into space. What a brave guy he had to be considering at that time that space travel was extremely risky – his poor predecessor did not make it back alive. His journey must have been incredible – to be the first human being in history to see the earth from outside the earth. he took a huge risk – not like down here where if something goes wrong with your car you have the advantage of a roadside assistance plan to help you out if you break down.

But poor Yuri – he travelled all that way into space and made it back safe and sound only to be killed in a road accident here on earth. How tragic eh…?

UFO’s seen near UK bases.

An ex-U.S. air force chief has given an astonishing account of an encounter with a UFO at an air force base in Suffolk. Charles Halt is one of a number of senior former airmen who went public today over claims that UFOs had tampered with nuclear missiles in the U.S. and the UK. Mr Halt, who retired in 1991, told a press conference that he was working at RAF Bentwater near Rendelsham in Suffolk in 1980 when he had the terrifying encounter. He said that early one morning in December 1980 several of his base’s security forces saw lights in the forest near Woodbridge.

Two patrolman were sent out to approach the craft which they described as ‘triangular, dark metallic in appearance’, Mr Halt said. It quickly and silently ‘vanished at high speed’. A few weeks later Mr Halt was told by his boss that the lights were back and so he went back out into the forest with a couple of policeman, a camera and a cassette recorder. At the site he saw ‘indentations of around six to eight feet wide’ and increased levels of radiation as well as broken branches on the trees. Mr Halt said: ‘Milling around, one of the individuals saw a bright glowing object like an eye. It would appear to be winking and was shedding molten metal and silently moving through the trees and at one point it actually approached us.’
