At 5AM on the morning of July 8th, 2022, near the end of his shift, and in the midst of a wide yawn, Air Force First Lieutenant Martin Lopez, at the Malmstrom Air Force Strategic Command base in central Montana, picked up the ringing phone.
A frightened voice eclipsed his yawn: “Martin, open your window hatch and see what’s out here.” Ripping open the window hatch cover, Martin immediately viewed a glowing red, oval-shaped vehicle hovering directly over the command center. As he shook First Lieutenant George Appleby, the crew commander awakened, bolted up and both peered out the window at an intense illumination.
Then both heard the first alarm klaxon resound, drawing their attention to the panel of annunciator lights. A “No-Go” light and two red security lights were lit indicating problems with one of the missiles sites, then nine more alarms echoed in several second intervals. In all, 10 missiles went offline.
Though the names and some of the details provided are false, these events did occur over fifty-five years ago on March 6th, 1967, just a few years after the Cuban Missile Crisis. Not mentioned was that within a week’s period, it was a total of 20 Minutemen ICBMs that suddenly shut down, this, after 2 separate mysterious craft were seen hovering above Malmstrom flight control centers.
It is true that it was only 20 of some 450 ICBMs hidden in underground silos that were affected, and it only took a day to restore the 20 to a launchable condition, but it did mark a security threat which circumstantial evidence could connect — intentional or not — to what appeared to be extraterrestrial visitations.
We can presume unintentional because several past documented cases of UFO observations and interactions reveal that close encounters tend to temporarily disable electronic equipment on nearby aircraft, military and otherwise. And in fact, when attacked in 1976 by an Iranian pilot and in 1980 by a Peruvian pilot, both UFOs only temporarily disabled the capabilities of both without any attempted hostile counter-measures. All other recorded interactions show the same restraint.
More importantly, such a significant event at Malmstrom was never publicly reported, which is a distinct American policy seeming to govern all unexplained UFO sightings. In contrast, for example, the 1989-90 UFO wave in Belgium was handled openly vs the secrecy surrounding a US Hudson valley upsurge in 1983-84.
In fact, to this day, the Air Force has maintained that no reported UFO incident has ever affected national security, but it is established fact that a large number of Air Force personnel reported sighting UFOs at the time that 20 of our strategic missiles became un-launchable.
Observed locations of UFOs do show a direct connection between strategic nuclear power endeavors, whether tests or installations, and the presence of UFOs. One senses a mission of monitoring civilizations in their neighborhood whose pursuits might spread trouble and travail.
Another ICBM site at Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota experienced an alien visitation similar to that of Malmstrom. On October 24, 1966, the Minuteman missile system was adversely affected during an afternoon when UFOs were sighted from the ground by multiple observers at three separate missile sites for over three hours. Communications and radio transmissions between various facilities monitoring the events were disrupted by static when the UFO came close to the site.
On the same afternoon security alarms for the Oscar 7 missile silo were activated. A security team discovered the fence open and a horizontal door closing the missile silo was open. The reinforced-concrete door weighed almost twenty tons. No tire tracks nor any record of a visit was made.
On a much smaller scale the United States is certainly guilty of more extreme interference like staging coups in South American countries, for example, this under the pretense of regional caretaker. Would a galactic caretaker have concerns for a planet erased by nuclear winter in one of its solar systems? From October 16, 1962 to October 28, 1962 the US and Russia came closer to an all-out nuclear war than humankind has ever been, before and after.
Can it be that aliens in distant worlds somehow got this warning within a four-to-five-year from 1962 to the incident dates of 1966. At light speed they would get this news up to four light years away. As far as we know there is no exoplanet that would receive this news in two light years and could travel light speed to investigate any nuclear risk we might pose in two years. So, the presence of such aircraft is explained away or ignored for fear of ridicule.
We naturally ridicule anyone who surmises the possibility of travel from distant worlds, judging capabilities by our technology, not by those of advanced civilizations. Our standards could not see a travel speed beyond a fraction of light speed, let alone superluminal speed. Such would be science fiction, depicting super heroes with super powers.
Currently, we might ask ourselves if Vladimir Putin’s needless war crimes in Ukraine and his accompanying nuclear sabre-rattling will bring a repeat-response similar to the Cuban Missile Crisis in a few years. We are certainly questioning Vladimir Putin’s sanity as aliens might.
Many of our so-called leaders claim the favor and aid of a divine force. Maybe we should seek advanced biological specie intervention from alien visitors, all of whom, from our observations, seem to want to do no harm but render aggressors powerless.
But judging by our action movies, violent coup attempts, and mass murders, that might not meet our superhero standards.
