One of George Stock's UFO images |
Worldwide UFO fans will sure have field day because the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) decided to release hundreds of X-files-like UFO documents on their website.
Hundreds of declassified documents about the agency's top secret UFO investigations dating from the late 1940s and the 1950s. Many conspiracy theorists point to the CIA, saying that the agency has been involved in many cover ups of UFO sightings to hide the truth from the general public. For some reason, the agency has decided to upload never-before-seen photos and documents in PDF formats.
Among the CIA's UFO X-Files is the sighting documented by New Jersey resident George Stock. On July 29, 1952 at about 4:30 p.m., Stock and his friend John H. Riely spotted a bizarre aircraft approaching from the sky. The story goes that Mr Stock ran into his house to grab his camera, before firing off five photos of the UFO.
Despite the authenticity of the uploaded CIA documents, the agency kept referring to Agents Mulder and Scully of the famous drama series The X-Files. "Below you will find five documents we think X-Files character Agent Fox Mulder would love to use to try and persuade others of the existence of extraterrestrial activity," wrote CIA in the blog where some of the documents were listed.
While the files didn't give any firm conclusion about the existence of UFOs and extraterrestrial life, the documents did reveal that the CIA was not only interested in UFO sightings in the U.S. but also in England, Spain, North Africa and Germany.
The CIA isn't the only federal agency under attack when it comes to UFO conspiracies. Many UFO-slash-alien conspiracy theories are popping up and NASA has been accused of back-to-back extraterrestrial evidence cover-ups related to its Mars missions as well.
