Download or read book Unidentified written by Robert Salas and published by Career Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1969 the U.S. Air Force issued a statement that read' "No UFO reported, investigated and evaluated by the Air Force was ever an indication of threat to our national security." This statement is patently false. It has been proven untrue by the testimony of many military officers and airmen and documentation of incidents involving UFOs and nuclear weapons, testimonies of which the U.S. Air Force was fully aware. Unidentified details many of these testimonies, some for the first time. As partial justification for its position, the Air Force cites a University of Colorado study that was contracted and paid for by federal funds. Unidentified reveals how this study was actually just another part of the plan to cover up the reality of the UFO phenomenon. For the first time, Unidentified publishes evidence that the investigators for the Colorado study knew about the UFO-related missile shutdown incidents but did not investigate them or include them in their final report.

Download or read book The Sacred Contagion written by Paul-Henri Thiry (Baron d'Holbach) and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-10-30 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Religion has always had its critics", writes the Baron d'Holbach (1723-89), "but few have dared to attack it at the source." In The Sacred Contagion, this fiercest of atheism's propagandists argues that religious influence is always harmful to morality, society, and government. All previous attempts to reform religion have simply pruned the tree, giving it new vitality. The root of the problem is the idea of God itself; people who believe in God or gods will necessarily act in certain ways, which will be destructive for themselves and for others. Those who believe in the revelation of a God or gods will necessarily become enslaved to the will of the gods' ministers and interpreters, and any ruler who empowers the priesthood in his kingdom will end up as their first slave.In this book, a key figure in the radical Enlightenment calls for an abrupt turn from the supernatural to the natural. This return to natural morality, hand in hand with the secularization of government, is the only thing that can bring real happiness to individuals, nations, and humanity in general. While it's true that Christians tend to pay little attention to their Bible, the same could be said for for atheists and freethinkers and their own intellectual tradition. While the Baron d'Holbach is sometimes paid lip service as an important atheist thinker, few of his works have been translated into English. This book is presented as a contribution to this important heritage.

Book excerpt: An Apollo 11 astronaut and the Nebula Award–nominated author of Directive 51 present a novel that “conveys the wonder and promise of space” (Publishers Weekly). Born the year of the Moon landing, Chris Terence spends his life fighting to return humanity to that pinnacle. An engineering student with dreams of spaceflight, he finds upon graduation that the United States no longer has need for astronauts. Years of bureaucratic meddling have reduced the space program to a shell of itself, and it will take the greatest scientific find in history to send humanity skyward once more. After years battling budget hawks, Chris finally gets his chance to walk on the Moon. While there, he finds evidence of an ancient alien civilization, the Tiberians, who visited Earth’s satellite eight thousand years before. Understanding what happened to those long-forgotten travelers will define the lives of Chris and his son, as they fight against all odds to unlock the secrets of the universe. “The collaboration of the first man to pilot a moon lander (Aldrin) with a major voice in contemporary science fiction (Barnes) has produced a fascinating chronicle of man’s first encounter with alien intelligence” (Booklist).
