Eldorado Posted March 24, 2020 #1 Share Posted March 24, 2020 (edited) "When a massive international war-games exercise known as Operation Mainbrace convened in the North Sea in 1952, it brought together 80,000 military personnel, 1,000 planes and 200 ships from nine countries. "There were also some unexpected attendees: UFOs. "Multiple sightings of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) during Operation Mainbrace (also known as Exercise Mainbrace) were documented by pilots and naval officers and appeared on radar, according to the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena (NICAP), a federal agency that compiled witness accounts of UFO encounters from the 1950s through the 1980s."

Absolutely not. Did you read the article and have you looked into the case? If not then please do before hand waving it away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OpenMindedSceptic Posted March 30, 2020 #4 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Yeah, those highly trained military personnel in state of the art planes and ships must have been mistaken. It must have been some secret project, possibly foreign, not alien tech, no way it could ever be that. All those military personnel must be wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well considering there's not a whole lot of verifiable documentation on the event in regards to UFOs, I would venture a guess that this is sensationalism of more mundane explanations. No photos? No testimonies? Where are the senior officer reports? Where are the vetted flight logs to corroborate? Where are the deck officer logs that would mention such an amazing event? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need for real evidence if you believe= much like religion I guess.. actually that's not a guess Edited April 2, 2020 by Dejarma 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrLzs Posted April 2, 2020 #9 Share Posted April 2, 2020 So .. where's all the actual radar data? Given this was an exercise, wouldn't that mean that people were being trained? It's hardly surprising if they can't identify some of what they detect. That's what UFO means, it doesn't mean flippin aliens. And if there is not some discussion about radar anomalies and proper interpretation of contacts, then this is all a bit of a waste of time. So, OP, how's about you cite the bits where all that is covered? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrLzs Posted April 3, 2020 #11 Share Posted April 3, 2020 (edited) Just so we're clear on all this.... this is a History Channel creation (I could probably stop right there..). It is listed as in the sci-FI genre. FI=Fiction. "each case blends UFO theories with authentic historical events" Any embellishment goin' on, do ya think? From https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/15/arts/television/project-blue-book-history-true-story.html Nah, that's absolutely legit historical footage, right there.. And those who present this stuff as fact, wonder why they get a hard time..... Edited April 3, 2020 by ChrLzs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
