UFO Odyssey: Off-Earth Beings To The Rescue?

By Linda Pendleton

Are we alone in the universe? Most people believe that we are not. Nearly 80 percent of Americans believe the government is not telling us all they know about UFO activity. Could the Earth’s much needed healing be part of another planet’s mission? Are off-earth beings here to help, or to hinder the human race? Can we unlock the long held secrets and mysteries about extraterrestrial life? Research and polls indicate that at least one in seven persons have had a UFO experience of some kind, whether it be sightings, contact, abductions, or messaged. Are crop circles—messages from beyond? And why are we being denied disclosure by our government? What has history, science, technology, and professional investigations and research revealed?

About the Author

Introduction

Are we alone in the universe? Many people do not believe we are. A 2002 U.S. National Roper Poll showed seventy-two percent of Americans believe that our government is not telling us all it knows about UFO activity. Another CNN-TIME Poll in 1997 showed eighty-percent believed the government to be hiding knowledge of UFOs. The numbers appear to be holding at that level in the years since.

Nearly half of Americans believe UFOs have visited earth in some form. A Roper Poll conducted by the SciFi Television Channel indicated one in seven has had a UFO Experience.

I don’t know where you stand on the issue of alien life and contact, but possibly you do have a curiosity or an interest or you would not be reading this. Personally I have known we were not alone for as long as I can remember — the young girl standing out in her yard, looking up into the night, seeing the man in the moon, the sparkle of starlight, the shining light of Venus and other planets, the milky way streaked across the cloudless sky, and knew we were not alone, and had never been.

I loved locating the constellations and reading the mythical stories that went along with them, and yet, it always seemed I was looking for more, and with an expectation that one day I would see what I thought I would.

Some years later, I did see them ....

Chapter 1 ~ Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence

"The rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air

and all of it perhaps echoing through the cosmos.

Is it any wonder that we are being visited?"

~Don and Linda Pendleton, Whispers From the Soul

A few years ago, I attended a lecture given to an Astronomy Club by Dr. Seth Shostak, senior astronomer at the SETI Institute at Mountain View, California. SETI, Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence was founded by astronomer, astrophysicist, Frank Drake.

Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft, funded the SETI Allen Telescope Array in Hat Creek, Northern California near Lassen National Park, and 290 miles north of San Francisco. Construction began in 2005 and in 2007 had completed phase one and installed forty-two working antennas. At completion of the third phase, there will be three hundred fifty antennas.

ATA is a joint effort of the SETI Institute and the University of California, Berkeley, Radio Astronomy Laboratory. ATA is dedicated to cutting-edge astronomical research and a simultaneous search for signals of intelligent, extraterrestrial origins.

Dr. Shostak gave an interesting and informative talk laced with humor. He made the statement that 80 percent of Americans believe we are being visited by extraterrestrials. And it was about that percentage of the attendees of the lecture that fell into that number. But, near the end of his talk, Dr. Shostak told the audience he was not among the eighty percent, and was very skeptical that we have ever been visited and even that we might be. Nor does he believe there is any government cover-up. He does believe there could be radio contact within the next twenty years. HUH? With who?

It was so interesting that his comments changed the body language of many in the room, myself included (and even though I had won the door prize—a DVD of the movie, Contact. Any of us who have had UFO credible sightings know we are not alone and are being visited, and also may believe that earth has been visited by extraterrestrials for centuries. And for most, it is very apparent that our government has and does cover-up. Shostak added there is no evidence of extraterrestrial visits. Well, obviously as a scientist with an apparent case of denial one wonders why he sits
