Missile technicians claim sightings coincided with October outage 50 nuclear weapons lost touch with control centre Blackout lasted almost an hour says Air Force President Obama told of power supply interruption By DAILY MAIL REPORTER Last updated at 3:49 PM on 8th July 2011 When Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming lost control of 50 nuclear, inter-continental missiles last October, officials said a communication failure between the control centre and the weapons was to blame. However, three missile technicians stationed at the base have raised fresh questions in the case, amid reports UFO sightings coincided with the incident. UFO researcher Robert Hastings says eyewitnesses claim the interruption to the power supply also lasted much longer than the Air Force admits. Cover-up claims: Missile technicians stationed at Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming have reported UFO sightings coinciding with October's power outage A power failure on October 23, 2010 meant that one-ninth of Americas nuclear arsenal went offline for almost an hour. A U.S. Air Force spokesman said there had been a 'hardware issue' relating to an underground cable linking the command centre with the missiles. More... One last step for mankind?

Defence officials insisted there was never any danger of an accidental launch. But the incident was deemed serious enough for Barack Obama to be briefed on it later. Speaking out: UFO researcher Robert Hastings says three eyewitnesses have come forward to him on the condition of anonymity There was no evidence of foul play and the U.S. never lost the capability to launch the missiles, although it could only have done so from an airborne command and control centre, he said. Another official said there had been similar breakdowns on other bases in the past. But Robert Hastings says more was involved. According to Hastings, three missile maintenance technicians have agreed to speak to him on the condition of anonymity, revealing the military has kept UFO sightings that occurred during the power outage under wraps. The witnesses, he said, reported sightings of 'a large cigar-shaped object high above the missile field'.

Hastings told AOL: 'They said the object was seen in the sky above the field, throughout the weekend, both during the (missile) disruption and the following day.' His witnesses claim the power outage lasted several hours longer than officials reported. 'I have detailed information about the events. The Air Force said this (missile) disruption lasted 59 minutes. It actually lasted the better part of 26 hours,' he said. 'It was intermittent and involved a very specific sequence of these five missile alert facilities going on and offline. I have all of that down to the most minute detail.'

'It had no passenger gondola and no advertising on its hull,' Hastings said. 'Further, its aspect ratio (length to width) was very similar to a WWI Zeppelin: long and thin, and not at all like the squat shape of a corporate blimp.' The witnesses did not, however, claim the alleged UFO was connected with the outage. It is not the first time Hastings has reported UFO sightings at nuclear missile sites. Going public: Captain Robert Salas accused the U.S. Air Force of lying in September He organised a press conference last September, when six former Air Force officers stepped forward to reveal they had seen or had been involved with sightings at missile sites. They claim that since 1948, aliens have been hovering over UK and U.S. nuclear missile sites and deactivating the weapons - once even landing in a British base. The men said they were encouraged not to speak to the media about their sightings. Captain Robert Salas, who was among the six, confirmed: Were talking about unidentified flying objects, as simple as that.' However, Lieutenant Colonel John Thomas, director of public affairs for Air Force Global Strike Command headquarters at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana, denies there is a policy to silence eyewitnesses to unexplained phenomena at Air Force bases. 'I have no reason to dispute anybody's claims of anything they may seen historically, because those occurrences and reports took place decades into the past and probably will decades into the future,' he told AOL. 'This incident is separate from all of that. We took it very seriously and we're very confident that we understand fully what happened.' 'If people see things that are unusual, they are encouraged to report them,' he said, adding: 'When people join the military, they don't give up their First Amendment rights.'

Seven former U.S. Air Force personnel gathered in Washington Monday to recount UFO sightings over nuclear weapons facilities in decades past accounts that a UFO researcher says show extraterrestrial beings are interested in the worlds nuclear arms race and may be sending humans a message. At a news conference at the National Press Club, the six former officers and one exenlisted man recalled either personal sightings or reports from subordinates and others of UFOs hovering over nuclear missile silos or nuclear weapons storage areas in the 1960s, '70s and '80s. Three of the former Air Force officers though they hadnt seen the UFOs themselves told reporters that UFOs hovering over silos around Montanas Malmstrom Air Force Base in 1967 appeared to have temporarily deactivated some of the nuclear missiles. Much of the testimony already has appeared in books, websites and elsewhere. But UFO researcher and author Robert Hastings, who organized the news conference, said the time has come for the U.S. government to acknowledge the UFO visits. I believe - these gentlemen believe - that this planet is being visited by beings from another world, who for whatever reason have taken an interest in the nuclear arms race which began at the end of World War II, said Hastings, who added that more than 120 former military personnel have told him about UFOs visiting nuclear sites. Regarding the missile shutdown incidents, my opinion is that whoever are aboard these craft are sending a signal to both Washington and Moscow, among others, that we are playing with fire that the possession and threatened use of nuclear weapons potentially threatens the human race and the integrity of the planetary environment, he said. Former Air Force Capt. Robert Salas who has written a book about the Montana incidents said he was underground when a UFO hovered over his missile silo in March 1967, and therefore couldnt see it. He said one of his guards above ground told him a red, glowing object about 30 feet in diameter was hovering just above the front gate of the facility, in an isolated area far from Malmstrom. And just as I [called my commander], our missiles began going into whats called a nogo condition, or unlaunchable. Essentially, they were disabled while this object was still hovering over out site, Salas said. Salas and others said the military urged them at the time not to talk about the incidents. Retired Col. Charles Halt recalled seeing UFOs over the woods near Royal Air Force Stations Bentwaters and Woodbridge in eastern England in December 1980. He and security personnel were investigating reports of strange lights just outside one of the bases. All through the forest was a bright glowing object, he said Monday. The best way I can describe it, it looked like an eye with bright red, with a dark center. It appeared to be winking. It was shedding something like molten metal, was dripping off it.

It silently moved through the trees, avoiding any contact, it bobbed up and down, and at one point it actually approached us. We tried to get closer. It receded out into the field, beyond the forest, and silently exploded into five white objects gone. So we went out into the field looking for any evidence, because something had been apparently falling off it and we find nothing, he said. He recalled subsequently seeing other objects in the sky, including one that stopped about 3,000 feet overhead and sent down a concentrated beam at our feet. No one was harmed. The best way I can equate it is sort of a laser beam. We stood there in awe. Was this a warning? Was this an attempt to communicate? Was this a weapon? Or just a probe? he said. At about the same time, he was hearing radio reports from base personnel that beams from some of the objects were falling into or near the weapons storage area. In a staff meeting later, a general decided it happened off base, so its a British affair, Halt recalled. In other words, they were loathe to get involved. The Air Force investigated UFOs from 1948 to 1969 under a program eventually called Project Blue Book. The service, on its website, says the project concluded that no UFO reported, investigated, and evaluated by the Air Force has ever given any indication of threat to our national security. It also says there has been "no evidence that sightings categorized as 'unidentified' are extraterrestrial vehicles." Salas said the UFO phenomenon is real, not imaginary. There is current excessive secrecy in our government surrounding this phenomenon, he said. A reporter asked how many of the former military personnel subscribed to Hastings theory that the message of extraterrestrials is that humans should get rid of nuclear weapons, and how many of them believed that we should get rid of nukes. Of the seven, it appeared that only Salas raised his hand.
