Russia where ufos have been observed tracking rocket launches,
space flights and more importantly their re-entry procedures.
It seems that this activity has been monitored for some years
and that the Soviet Authorities are fully aware that their
space program has been subjected to some very inten~e scrutiny
by unidentified objects, which appear disc like and are able to
traverse their air space at will, and in some extraordinary
ways!
Additionally, it seems that Britain has also been the victim of
such activity. In her new book 'From Out Of The Blue' Jenny
Randles also explores this possibility. This book is the follow
up to another entitled 'Sky Crash' which she co-authored with
Dot Street and Brenda Butler and is more than just a
spectacular account of a ufo landing in Rendlesham Forest,
Suffolk, Nr the Bentwaters Air Base jointly manned by the RAF
and USAF. Around the time of tfre alleged landing it is known
that a similar re-entry of a Russian space rocket occurred over
the area. Following this, and in addition to the events at the
Bentwaters Base, a number of ufo sightings were received. Some
of the sightings were before the known re-entry time and indeed
after. This strongly implies that some unknown craft was
present over the area and as suggested by Jenny, may have been
interested in the re-entry.
The events at Bentwaters are in themselves quite remarkable and
suggest that a space vehicle of unknown origin actually landed
in Rendlesham Forest and that a possible 'alien liaison' took
place. The evidence presented does seem to substantiate this,
but as with most, if not·all of these cases, will we ever learn
the truth!
