The UFO Files: aliens 'might come here for holidays'

Documents from the Ministry of Defence classified archives show staff believed aliens could visit for “military reconnaissance”, “scientific” research or “tourism”.

In a 1995 briefing now published by the National Archives, a desk officer said the purpose of reported alien craft sightings “needs to be established as a matter of priority”, adding there did not appear to be “hostile intent”.

The unnamed official said it was “essential that we start with open minds”, explaining “what is scientific ‘fact’ today may not be true tomorrow”.

Clarifying he did not “talk to little green men every night”, he said: “We have a remit that we have never satisfied. That is, we do not now (sic) if UFOs exist.

11. My neighbor has an invisible spaceship over his trailer as we speak. So he says.

I hope they aren't monitoring my computer.

12. Well, my wife's turkey dinner IS pretty good ...

[monmouth]

14. HA! One of them became the Governor of Florida...Just look at him fergodssake!!..n/t

[longship]

15. I have it high authority that they only go where there's rich pickings!

That's right! Thirty year high school reunions. Lots of intoxicated people trying to be more important than they really are. It's a target rich environment for the aliens, whose only apparent goals are sex and body probing.

(Here, the vernacular breaks down. The question remains whether, from the alien's perspective, there is any difference between the two.)

So when you go to your thirtieth and the person identifies him/herself and you remember the name but not the face, if you follow through for the night you may be setting yourself up for a good night's probing on a flying saucer. Bear in mind, they just may very well merely call it sex. Relax and enjoy.

Don't tell me I didn't warn you.

18. We do not now know if there are tiny little unicorns that live in my brain

But I remind DU that -- in the words of one unnamed UK official -- it is "essential that we start with open minds." Well, everyone but me. If my mind were open, the tiny little unicorns might escape.

We're lucky our heads aren't hanging on the wall of some rich alien's library.

[DiverDave]

21. Then they must live off bad vibes

I've heard of that, E.T. that uses anger and suffering to get stronger.
Wouldnt surprise me.

22. Files on Rendlesham Forest Incident Destroyed

According to released documents during 2000 a search by MoD records staff revealed SHOCKING infomation that a collection of Defence Intelligence files covering the period 1980-82 (including on the famous Rendlesham Forest incident) had been destroyed, even though other files from the surrounding years had survived.

Records staff could not say when or why files were destroyed as the destruction certificates themselves were not retained for longer than five years (DEFE 2026 p182)
