Sighting in Mexico rekindles UFO interest
DAYTONA BEACH -- It -- whatever it was -- hovered in the early evening sky, shaped like a pale-green disc.
John Erickson believes what he saw that night -- April 18, 2002 -- was a UFO.
"I thought to myself: I must be seeing things," Erickson, 58, said. "They're supposed to be gray and black."
Six months after that April night in 2002, Erickson said, he spotted another floating object in Daytona Beach. He could hardly believe it. So he told his wife to walk outside. She, too, saw a Christmas tree-shaped object floating above the treetops.
Like many other UFO enthusiasts, the retired Army staff sergeant believes two phenomena are at play. The government occasionally tests experimental aircraft, which common folks believe to be UFOs, he said. And occasionally, extraterrestrials from outer space visit Earth.
The latter seems to comfort Erickson.
"Who's to say they haven't traveled for millions of years and now they're arriving?" he asked. "Frankly, I hope it's true. The idea of them being up there makes me feel a little less lonely."
But one local astronomer doubts the federal government could keep a lid on evidence of aliens and flying saucers.
"I've not yet seen real hard scientific evidence indicating extraterrestrials," said Roger Hoefer, curator of astronomy for Volusia County Schools and the Museum of Arts and Sciences. "But there are a lot of things that haven't been explained."
The director of the nonprofit National UFO Reporting Center in Seattle receives between 3,000 and 4,000 reports of unidentified objects each year. Between 100 and 200 of those reports are forwarded to the Mutual UFO Network for further investigation. Mutual is an international organization dedicated to the scientific study of UFOs.
On March 25, the National UFO Reporting Center fielded a tip from an air traffic controller who said a pilot had reported two aircraft 15 miles in front of him at 35,000 feet, even though nothing showed up on radar. And on June 22, 2000, a pilot reported an egg-shaped object with no lights that darted at him and missed his starboard wing by 50 feet.
"Until we have a butterfly net that allows us to snag one of these things, we won't be able to identify what we're dealing with," said Peter Davenport, director of the National UFO Reporting Center. "But it appears we're dealing with objects that have an extraordinary technological ability."
In the skies over Mexico, the bright objects seemed intelligent after they changed direction and surrounded the military plane that was chasing them.
"And I believe they could feel we were pursuing them," said the plane's captain, Maj. Magdaleno Castanon.
When the pilots stopped following the objects, the balls of light vanished.

Idaho UFO Researcher: Mexican UFOs "Definitely Alien Craft."
An Idaho-based UFO researcher says spectacular videotape of purported flying saucers taken by the Mexican Air Force is the real deal.
"It appears from all indications these could be mother ships," said Ike Bishop, Idaho state director for the Mutual UFO Network. "They are definitely alien craft."
Idaho 2 News spoke on the phone with Bishop, who was at the world famous Little Ale'inn in Rachel, NV near Area 51, the supersecret military base 100 miles north of Las Vegas where some believe aliens and humans are collaborating scientifically.
A videotape aired Monday on Mexican national television showing a series of brilliant objects flying at more than 11,480 feet over southern Campeche state.
The tape was filmed March 5 by air force pilots using a video camera equipped with an infrared lens.The objects appear to accelerate rapidly and change course suddenly.
At least one crew member testified in a videotaped interview that the objects encircled the military jet at a distance of at least two miles.
Bishop says Mexico has a long history of UFO sightings and he applauded the Mexican Air Force for making the videotape public this week.
"The Mexican government is not afraid to talk about UFOs," Bishop told Idaho 2 News. "People don't lose their jobs over the whole thing."

Mexican Air Force films 16 UFOs in southern state
Mexican Air Force pilots film unidentified flying objects
MEXICO CITY (AP) - Mexican Air Force pilots filmed 11 unidentified flying objects in the skies over southern Campeche state, a Defense Department spokesman confirmed Tuesday.
A videotape made widely available to the news media on Tuesday shows the bright objects, some sharp points of light and others like large headlights, moving rapidly in what appears to be a late-evening sky.
The lights were filmed on March 5 by pilots using infrared equipment. They appeared to be flying at an altitude of about 3,500 meters (11,480 feet), and allegedly surrounded the Air Force jet as it conducted routine anti-drug trafficking vigilance in Campeche. Only three of the objects showed up on the plane's radar.
"Was I afraid? Yes. A little afraid because we were facing something that had never happened before," said radar operator Lt. German Marin in a taped interview made public Tuesday.
"I couldn't say what it was … but I think they're completely real," added Lt. Mario Adrian Vazquez, the infrared equipment operator. Vazquez insisted that there was no way to alter the recorded images.
The plane's captain, Maj. Magdaleno Castanon, said the military jets chased the lights "and I believe they could feel we were pursuing them."
When the jets stopped following the objects, they disappeared, he said.
A Defense Department spokesman confirmed Tuesday that the videotape was filmed by members of the Mexican Air Force. The spokesman declined to comment further and spoke on customary condition of anonymity.
The video was first aired on national television Monday night then again at a news conference Tuesday by Jaime Maussan, a Mexican investigator who has dedicated the past 10 years to studying UFOs.
"This is historic news," Maussan told reporters. "Hundreds of videos (of UFOs) exist, but none had the backing of the armed forces of any country. … The armed forces don't perpetuate frauds."
Maussan said Secretary of Defense Gen. Ricardo Vega Garcia gave him the video on April 22.

Video creates UFO stir
Tue 11 May, 2004 22:40
MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - The Mexican Air Force has released footage of what a UFO expert says are 11 invisible unidentified flying objects picked up by an infrared camera as they whizzed around a surveillance plane.
A long-time believer in flying saucers, journalist Jaime Maussan told a news conference on Tuesday the objects were real and seemed "intelligent" after they at one point changed direction and surrounded the plane chasing them.
"They were invisible to the eye but they were there, there is no doubt about it. They had mass, they had energy and they were moving about," he said, after showing a 15-minute video he said the Defense Ministry gave him permission to publicise.
The ministry confirmed to Reuters it had provided the video, filmed by the Air Force on March 5 over the eastern coastal state of Campeche.
"We are not alone! This is so weird," one of the pilots can be heard yelling, after the plane's crew switched on an infrared camera to track the objects, first picked up by radar.
The film, recorded by a plane looking for drugs trafficking near the Gulf of Mexico, shows 11 objects as blobs of light that hover in formation or dart about, sometimes disappearing into cloud.
Mexico's most popular nightly news broadcast showed the video on Monday night.
Interviewed by Mausson on another section of the video, the pilots said they grew nervous when the objects, still invisible, turned back during a chase and surrounded the plane.
"There was a moment when ... the screens showed they were behind us, to the left and in front of us. It was at that point that I felt a bit tense," said Major Magdaleno Castanon.
