The fallen, Kingsbury, Texas, Sphere: Was it a high-tech weapon?

     On the evening of January 21, 1997, at 9:01-9:09p.m. (CDT), I paid witness to a glowing orb, UFO, of  which, I have posted my officially notarized, two page testimonial report entitled: "The Glowing Orb--UFO" of the sighting on this Website, of what I deduced and proved, objectively, as being: "a spacecraft from another world--making signals." Please read that report, as it is now filed with the Joshua, Texas, Police Department, as an "incident report." It will give you a better perspective upon which, you should come to your own conclusions regarding the following, sensitive materials: Six (6) hours later . . .

     Early Wednesday morning (January 22), at around 3:40 a.m., many people in north Texas and four (4) other southwestern U.S. States (including a respected, on-duty Policeman from Arlington, Texas), saw a "fire ball" soaring north to south--when it broke-up into over a dozen (12) pieces, which all went flying off in different directions. On the morning TV-News, I was watching for any information coming up about the "Glowing Orb" myself and a friend saw the late evening before, when the TV News related that the object appearing at 3:40 a.m., was a falling piece of a Delta II rocket. Being a former NASA employee; I found the fallen Delta II rocket story to be complete, BS. First of all, "space junk" does not soar horizontally from the north to the south as the policeman had related in his interview with the CBS station: it would fall down to Earth at a 90 degree angle, or better. Delta II rocket "remnants" are designed to burn-up before they re-enter the atmospheric level. The same CBS station interviewed Mr. Randy Peters of the Museum of Science and History in Fort Worth, who reiterated that the object was a Delta II rocket. I called Mr. Peters and spoke with him and his director, Mr. Don Garland, in great detail of not only of what I had seen some six (6) hours earlier, but also of the impossibility that the 3:40 a.m. report could have been a Delta II rocket--soaring (not falling) from the north to the south. I mentioned my background of being an electronics expert and former Top Secret Level, NASA worker. "Out of all of the training films which I had seen in training; not a one "soared" overhead: they all burned-up in a streaking reddish-yellow fireball." I informed them. They both agreed that I had seen a completely different object, which they stated, "Must've been a UFO." This came after I informed Mr. Garland that I had called the F.A.A. and the Joshua Police. Others reported what I had seen the night before--which I also videotaped.

     Three (3) days later . . . .

     On January 24, 1997, a cattle rancher, Ed Longcope of Kingsbury (near San Antonio, Texas), found a spherical object on his property. He could not figure out what it was. He knew that it had fallen from the sky. According to the Houston Chronicle issue of January 26, 1997, Mr. Longcope described the object: "It was a large hollow steel ball, about the size of a medicine ball, and had screws at opposite ends. It had a weld seam around the middle." The "sphere" was found half-buried in a nearby cow pasture. There were "scorch marks" consistent with an object entering Earth's atmosphere, it was reported. The sphere was given to the Guadalupe County Sheriff's Office, who contacted the Air Force at Randolph Air Force Base, who came out and "took" the object away for "tests and analysis."

     If you have heard of "The Star Wars " weapon systems (SDI), and even of the "Rail-gun," then you will find interest in learning of a greater weapons system which is most certainly, Top Secret, therefore, I will present my theory, and I would not mislead you with false facts to back-up this theory. The following information is true and factual. You are invited to study, learn and to find; mutually unified:

     In 1931, the American physicist, Robert Jemison Van de Graaff, developed a device to produce an extremely high voltage electrostatic generator, which consisted of a terminal in the form of a metal sphere, which was then mounted to the top-end of an insulating column. Without getting too technical at this point: this generator was developed for the purpose of accelerating a beam of electrons, protons, or even ions, to bombard the nuclei of a target--within it's path.

     Now, what does this mean? The "nuclei" of what? What is missing within this principle of beaming electrons, protons and ions?

     Consider this:

     What makes up an Atom? What is electromagnetism? What are Cosmic Rays? What forms of equipment could be affected by this "generator," which could now (and even in 1931) become a--highly developed--defensive weapon?

     1. Neutrons, are missing from the development of the Van de Graaff generator, because neutrons would be the focal-point (or target) of this process, or attack.

     2. Cosmic rays are about 87% hydrogen nuclei (protons), and 12% helium nuclei (alpha particles). Hydrogen, is highly flammable: (a Hydrogen bomb).

     3. Electronics instrumentation such as communications devices, airplanes, missiles and bombs, could be blown apart from the inside out, by such a weapon. Neutrons, would trigger the explosion. This otherwise, defensive weapon now becomes--an offensive weapon, capable of knocking the above mentioned known devices into complete oblivion, or perhaps, a controlled force could--just bring-down an object.

     Cosmic rays are measured in units of giga (one billion) electron volts (GeV) per proton, or neutron, within a nucleus. Our entire galaxy is measured by 1 electron volt per cubic centimeter of space. The Milky Way Galaxy is measured in light-years (one light-year equals about six trillion miles of the distance that light itself has traveled at 186,284 [my calculation] miles-per-second), and I will leave it up to you to find out the tremendous overall size of our galaxy, then of our universe, if you are so inclined, but we are talking about an unimaginable amount of energy and power, everything based upon; the Atom.

     Neutrons, are electrically neutral particles of atomic nucleus, having a mass approximately equal to that of protons.

     Therefore, if you were to bombard neutrons with protons, electrons, or ions--with an output of hundreds to thousands, or even, millions of giga electron volts, perhaps you would be able to bring-down, a spacecraft from another world, or, a UFO.

     The device, given to today's standards of development, could be battery operated and launched like a canon ball, or from an aircraft within the nose of a missile.

     Consider why you would want to blow-apart such an object, if the device could in fact prove to be fatal to a UFO of unknown origin, which could also include unknown forms of power, . . and of life? Fear?

      Any living being that may be inside of such an object, would also be blown into infinity: never to tell its story of life, and of its origin. "We come in peace?"

     It has been speculated that the crash of a UFO near Roswell, New Mexico in 1947, could have been caused by lighting striking the object, or several objects. Yes, I have also heard that there could have been two (2) UFOs involved in this now, 50 year old mystery. Could it not also (given to the information provided above) be postulated, that a sophisticated Van de Graaff generator (with a controlled output) may have been used to bring-down the Roswell UFOs--deliberately?

     This may not be far from the truth. It would explain the massive cover-up, the "weather balloon" hoax and the now, infamous "clean-up" of the Roswell sight.

     I do not believe that an Alien race would make an object as described above, by using "screws" and "welded seams." If they can travel to another galaxy--or universe--or dimension, . . then they could come-up with something better than screws and welded seams. Don't 'ya think? 'Earthlings gotta use screws and seams.

     I do believe that the "medicine ball" object found by rancher Ed Longcope down in Kingsbury, Texas, was apparently, a form of a Van de Graaff generator, designed to bring-down a UFO, possibly, the "Glowing Orb" which we witnessed; three days beforehand, which was tremendous in size and intelligently controlled.

     If you have learned well, the technical aspects which have been related to you herein--then you know what you want to know. If you believe that the object streaking across the early morning skies of over five southwestern U.S. States on January 22, 1997, was a Delta II rocket falling to Earth to crash into someone's house--possibly killing someone--then you know what you need to know: NASA would deliberately design "space junk" which could crash into your house, or someone else's house--and misspend your tax billions on highly dangerous objects, yet, they would have you to understand that that's the risk of the Space Program: falling debris which could kill you, or me--or Aliens from another world . . .

     What do you choose to believe?
