The ancients lived in deadly fear of these comets or skyisland chains. Many times entire villages were enveloped by deadly gasses from the sky and perished. The fear of deadly gas in the comet's tail persisted into the 1800's.

Thomas Short, writing in the 18th century, chronicled the many calamities that had decimated mankind over four thousand years. Plagues, Earthquakes, drought, pestilence and incredible floods.

As you read through his curious book you are struck by the inevitable parallel appearance of bright comets in numbers unmatched by modern experience. They are invariably connected to the major disasters! Up until the 1800s many sources resonate with the fear that humanity held for the “comet”!

Then by the end of the 20th century it became scientific dogma that comets were harmless dusty snowballs.

Wal Thornhill states, “We don’t really understand comets or their origins”. However new instruments have enabled scientists to question many of their previous notions of the nature of comets. Firstly they are not “dusty snowballs” and in fact are very similar to asteroids being solid bodied concretations.

Secondly as Wal explains in the following film, they are negatively charged electrets racing toward a positively charged sun. As they get closer they begin to discharge in what he believes is the familiar “cold cathode discharge”.

Egyptian sources such as the Papyrus Ipuwer and the Papyrus Harris testify to these destructive eras. Hard modern day evidence comes from such archaeologists as Claude Schaeffer who showed that six destruction layers separated civilizations from the Bronze Ages down to the Iron Age.

And these he believes were worldwide. Not only earthquakes but famine , plague and the movement of races bent on survival. The sudden and dramatic collapse of the early Bronze Age civilizations, around 2200 B.C., has puzzled many an Archaeologist.

Highly respected academics such as Kathryn Kenyon and John Garstung have wondered over these unexplained phenomena. The consensus of academic opinion notes not only was it sudden and dramatic but that it was widespread in its geography, spreading from Europe, across Asia Minor to the Indus valley and beyond to China.

Further evidence of Velikovsky’s destructive scenarios come from archaeologists Amos Nur and Harvey Weiss. They scientifically measure these tumultuous times replete with earthquakes, soil deposition, famine, ash deposits desertification and abandonment.

Echoes of such cosmic interference continued down through Roman and Greek times. Numerous devastating earthquakes are noted beginning with the Greek Thucydides citing the destruction of Athens by earthquake and plague.

If as Wal Thornhill believes, earthquakes are an underground electrical storm then perhaps a comet has the ability to excite the telluric currents beneath the earth. The appearance of comets and subsequent deadly earthquakes is often touched upon in Thomas Shorts chronicles.

Skyisland disintegration?

https://www.thunderbolts.info/tpod/2006 ... gofire.htm


Dr. Lincoln La Paz, expert on extraterristrial bodies from the University of New Mexico, headed the identification project. One asteroid size object is orbiting at about 400 mi. out, while the other track is 600 mi. from the earth.

They referenced the work of an electrical engineer John P. Bagby who disclosed his findings in a paper he delivered at the Adler Planetarium in Chicago. Bagby reported that there were “more than fifty objects, some of which glowed dull red occasionally.”

He calculated that the objects were orbiting at “about 475 miles from the earth...perhaps moving in an elongated elliptical orbit,” and that he had made his first observation of the objects in February 1954.[from Washington Evening Star, February 18, 1955]

"During the mid-fifties I analysed evidence of two swarms of such objects in retrograde orbits. However, it has never been conclusively proved that such an ephemeral satellite, with a perigree in the upper atmosphere, has been observed while in orbit and before its final revolutions. I now suggest that the Earth has had such a satellite and that it was observed at least eight times during the period 1956-65."

So in 1966 the question was still out as to the true nature of these orbiting satellites that appeared in mid-fifties. Following that event, evidence of a retrograde satellite in orbit around the earth appeared during the years 1956-65. He is not clear at this point if it is the same one. In the same article, he makes this interesting statement:

"The brilliance of the objects to the naked eye caused most persons contacted to doubt that they were astronomical despite the fact that this was confirmed with optical aids."

So these particular satellites glow so brightly that many doubt that they are astronomical...that is another way of saying that people thought these were artificial satellites. And then they supposedly disappear, for he concludes:

So did they disappear? Apparently not. Bagpy then writes a follow up article in the September 2, 1967 issue of Nature entitled "Radio Anomalies associated with an Ephemeral Satellite still in Orbit." Scientists had observed some strange radio anomalies in 1962, 1963 and 1965 where the signal was very strong, but could not trace its origin.

Bagpy then analysed the data, but he could not correlate it with overhead passages of ECHO I and other artificial satellites. Eventually he was able to correlate it with the orbit of the "ephemeral satellite" previously noted in Nature:

"...the charged cloud associated with the passage of the body through the upper atmosphere would be large enough to reflect 16 and 18 Kc/s signals."

Bagpy was able to optically observe the object in January 1967, followed by further radio observations in April and May of that year. So whatever this thing is, it did not decay in 1966, and it glows brightly and reflects radio signals? And it is natural?

In a 1969 issue of Icarus magazine (vol. 10) Bagpy published another article entitled "Terrestrial Satellites: Some Direct and Indirect Evidence." He then states the 1956 satellite is a remnant of the 1955 satellite:

"Research that I have been engaged in since 1956 now suggests that there may be several substantially large natural objects orbiting the Earth in similar orbits. These all appear to be fragments of a larger parent satellite which broke up about mid-December 1955."

Bagpy then notes something odd in the orbital data of known artificial (man-made) satellites:

"From an analysis of the considerable amount of published data on the orbits of artificial satellites, I have recently found that many sudden anomalies have been occurring in the orbital elements of a large number of the artificial bodies. These changes are often quite drastic and of a semipermanent nature.

To my knowledge, they have not been previously noted or discussed. Inclinations have changed by up to tenths of a degree, apogee and perigree have fallen and increased from tens to hundreds of kilometers, and the lines of nodes and apsides have changed their orientation by up to 50% of the normal rate."

So what caused the artificial satellites to change their orbit? Bagpy states:

"The various anomalies all took place at times of intersection of the orbital paths of the artificial satellites with the paths of one of the natural object subgroups."

This is odd. In his analysis Bagpy excluded all Soviet and U.S. satellites which had known orbit changing capability. When the natural and artificial satellites come into close proximity, something is changing the orbit of the artificial satellite.

Bagpy discusses various possibilities: gravitational force, electrostatic force, and finally: electromagnetic force.

In 1981 Bagby did yet another follow up article entitled "Natural Earth Satellites" in the Journal of the British Interplanetary Society (Vol. 34. #7, pp. 289-293, 1981). Despite all these observations, scientists were still rejecting the notion that earth could capture natural satellites that would take a retrograde orbit around the earth:

"...the main stream of science has either ignored or despised the idea of any natural satellites of the Earth other than the Moon but without producing any observational or dynamical evidence to support their disapproval. The advent of the space programme resulted in many more observers scanning the sky at both optical and radio frequencies, in order to recover or keep track of the numerous artificial Earth satellites and their debris. This has added to the mystery by providing numerous new 'unidentified' observations."

So after all those observations, the question is still not settled? Are you kidding me? Could it be that these retrograde satellites are not natural after all? And scientists do not want to risk their reputation and say that there are one or more UFOs orbiting the earth? Bagpy then clarifies that the retrograde satellites that appeared in 1953-1954 are perhaps different than those that appeared in retrograde orbit from 1956-1967:

"There are two general groups of retrograde natural Earth satellite suspects so far discovered. Additionally, there is one single object in a retrograde orbit. The first group are descendants of a parent body first discussed in Nature [1956-67 satellites] but the first evidence for several ablated fragments was presented much earlier [1953-1954 satellites]. ...In the two papers which appeared in Nature, there were presented orbital results for an ephemeral retrograde body, observed between 1956 and 1967. Since then, the orbits of several ablated ephemeral fragments of this body have been computed and published privately through the courtesy of friends."

So not only are there two groups of retrograde satellites in orbit around the earth, but in the year 1981 one of them was still orbiting the earth. How long has this been going on? Bagpy then notes that a retrograde satellite in orbit around the earth was noted as early as 1921:

"During August 1921, several observations were made throughout the world of a 'brilliant object.' These observations, some by recognized authorities, have remained unexplained over the years. I have recently analysed five of these observations as discussed by Baum and find that they all conform closely to the early orbital patternof the principal retrograde body described in Nature."

In order to make the 1921 satellite the same as the ones observed between 1956-67, Bagpy has to make a slight mathematical "adjustment" and I am not so sure if this is accurate. But then wait! He then reveals that this retrograde satellite may have been there as far back as the year 1880:

"As recently discussed editorially in Nature, a group of retrograde bodies was seen from Kattenau, Germany on 22 March 1880 and reported on in Nature at the time."

Again, to make the observations match he has to modify the orbit with a bit of math, attributing it to atmospheric drag. He then notes:

"In August 1960, the Grumman Aircraft Engineering Corporation's Optical Surveillance System picked up an unknown retrograde body."

Again he relates this to the same group of objects in retrograde orbit around the earth from 1956-67 Of these, only one remained in retrograde orbit in the year 1981. According to Polar Orbiters? these records are in Grumman Report No.ADR 07-07-62.4.

Back then, we did not have the technology to send satellites into a retrograde orbit. And if these are just rocks, I never heard of one reflecting radio signals.

Also this, from UNIDENTIFIED SATELLITES, on the earlier sighting from 1954:

"The mass-sightings of UFOs front at least 1944 onwards provided, we know, much food for thought. But what about the following item. translated from the West German magazine Lies Mit!, No. 7, of March 3, 1955?:

SENSATIONAL SPACE DEVELOPMENTS
The Earth has two new moons
Two sensational announcements recently captured peoples attention throughout the world. The first announcement said laconically that the U.S. Army had commissioned the well-known astronomer Clyde Tombaugh, dis­coverer of the planet Pluto, to look for a second moon believed to belong to our Earth. And, only a fortnight later, came the second, almost incredible, statement to the effect that Tombaugh had already located two new Earth satellites.

These are allegedly fairly large meteors which have, in some unexplained manner, come into the neighbourhood of the Earth and are now in orbit around it. It is suspected, however, that they will probably lead to the solution of the mystery of the so­-called Flying Saucers.

The article goes on to say that the two new "satellites" are from 430 to 650 miles from the Earth and between 60 feet and 300 feet in diameter.

Speaking of the deflection from course of the U.S. rocket Juno II, the article stated: "We find ourselves faced by powers which are far stronger than we had hitherto assumed, and whose base is at present unknown to us.

More I cannot say at present. We are now engaged in entering into a closer contact with those powers, and in six or nine months' time it may be possible to speak with more precision on the matter.""


Capt. Howard T. Orville, USN, Ret., head of the President’s Weather Control Commission, says that he holds the same ideas on unknown satellites orbiting the earth as he expressed in 1954.

Interviewed by Lou Corbin on WFBR on October 24, 1957, Captain Orville was questioned about views he stated three years ago. A tape of the 1954 WFBR broadcast contains the following:

Mr. Corbin: Do you know of any condition under which two such objects could enter the earth’s atmosphere and pick up orbiting of 400 and 600 miles out?

Capt. Orville: Not that I know of. Your doubts are well justified.

Mr. Corbin: If there are two bodies circling, then they should be natural or unnatural?

Capt. Orville: If that should be true, military security would prevent discussion.

Mr. Corbin: Then is it not possible that the two bodies, if they are there, might well be space stations?

Capt. Orville: Well, that is an interesting thought. I don’t know of any set of circumstances that would account for these two objects orbiting around the earth.

Mr. Corbin: But we still have the puzzle of something circling the earth?

Capt. Orville: Yes

During the broadcast on October 24, 1957, when asked if there was any new information about the unknown satellites, Capt. Orville said it appeared that the military might have kept the matter from publication.

“From the American people,” asked Mr. Corbin.

In reply Capt. Orville said he did not wish to call it a deliberate cover-up. Then he added, “But we didn’t hear any more about it did we?”

Judson, who has been studying the object in conjunction with Robert L. Johnson, director of the Adler Planetarium sums up the conclusions about the thing this way: "It's not a meteor because it's much too slow. And it's not an artificial man-made satellite, of that we're certain. THE OBJECT TRAVELS FROM EAST TO WEST...EVERY ARTIFICIAL SATELLITE EVER PUT UP HAS TRAVELED FROM WEST TO EAST. THAT'S THE ONLY WAY IN WHICH THEY CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE EARTH'S ROTATION."

" 'THE OBJECT,' JUDSON SAID, 'DOESN'T EVEN HAVE THE DECENCY TO MAINTAIN A REGULAR SCHEDULE, LIKE ANY OTHER HEAVENLY OR MAN MADE OBJECT HE'S EVER SEEN.' 'WE DON'T KNOW WHEN TO WATCH FOR IT.' he says." It appears some nights, and some nights it doesn't. Usually it appears at about the time (the) Echo I (balloon satellite) does going in the opposite direction and about twice as fast.

What could it possibly be: "Between you and me, I just don't know," Judson said. Then he was asked an inevitable question: "No," he replied, "Definitely not, I do not believe in flying saucers."

So there we have the answer to Bagpy's question as to why scientists do not accept that earth captured a natural satellite in retrograde orbit. Because whatever it is, it is not natural. Nor did it maintain a regular orbit. And it appears and disappears, and has an odd color to it. And it reflects radio signals! The only reason Bagpy got published in Nature is he did not mention that dreaded three letter word that is the bane of all science: UFO.

Why is it the bane of all science? Because if any scientist starts to study it publicly, they will probably lose any chance of government funding.

So why the secrecy? Did the NSA, in fact, establish radio contact with THIS object in retrograde orbit around the earth? It certainly fits the time period of the NSA article. Is that why the military destroyed the tracking tape? So that no one could point at it and listen for radio signals?
