HBCC UFO Research Note: I received an email from Mr. John B. McKay's daughter, who related "just" what was told to her by her Father. No more, no less as she mentioned. I also asked Mr. McKay's daughter about what to do about her name, should I remove it, or leave it in the report. She told me it was fine to leave her name in this report. I thank Sheri very much for her kindness in writing to me and for the information she provided in her report.
I would like to request if anyone else from the Edwards AFB was witness to anything while on duty, or heard of anything unusual would they please contact Brian Vike at HBCC UFO Research. Thank you.
HBCC UFO Note: I would like to add that yet another hero, Mr. John B. McKay served his country with "honor".
Also I would like to mention that the reason why I received her nice letter today, January 28, 2008 was due to the recent article I posted which was entitled Lt. Col. Roy Jack Edwards Tells His Son Of His UFO Encounter As A Test Pilot and the story on this can be found at: *LT. COL. ROY JACK EDWARDS TELLS HIS SON OF HIS UFO ENCOUNTER AS A TEST PILOT*

NASA OFFICIAL BIOGRAPHY
John B. McKay was one of the first pilots assigned to the X-15 flight research program at NASA's Flight Research Center, Edwards, Calif. As a civilian research pilot and aeronautical engineer, he made 30 flights in X-15s from October 28, 1960, until September 8, 1966. His peak altitude was 295,600 feet, and his highest speed was 3863 mph (Mach 5.64).
McKay was with the NACA and NASA from February 8,1951 until October 5, 1971 and specialized in high-speed flight research programs. He began as an NACA intern, but assumed pilot status on July 11, 1952. In addition to the X-l5, he flew such experimental aircraft as the D-558-1, D-558-2, X-lB, and the X-lE.

SHERI'S EMAIL TO ME
Dear Brian, I just received the UFO article from my cousin.. I am writing to say that my father, John B. McKay, who had a twenty year career as a test-pilot at Edwards Air Force Base starting in 1951, told me that he had also seen, while flying, objects that appeared to be UFO's. My father did not work for the military, he worked for NASA, and has an astronaut rating for going into space in the X-15 rocket plane. These are the details of his conversation with me, nothing more or less to it:
WHAT SHERI MCKAY WAS TOLD BY HER FATHER
One night while I was home for a visit, in the early 1970's, after my father was retired from NASA, he and I were having a conversation in the evening hours after dinner. I don't recall how the subject came up, but he told me that during his flying career, and on more than one occasion, he had seen objects in the sky, while flying, that appeared to be UFO's, that some other pilot's had also seen what appeared to be UFO's, and that they were not allowed to talk about it. He did not go into any further detail, and I don't remember asking any questions, but I did get the feeling that he wanted to tell someone, and I think the fact that he was already retired, and had just had a couple of gin martinis that evening made it easier to do so. And after reading about the experience of Mr. Edwards, and how he was treated in such an unkind manner by the military, I don't mind telling someone myself. As for my personal views, I am neither for or against the idea of UFO's. But I do think that the subject should be stripped of all sensationalism and cover-ups, and be approached on the highest level of scientific inquiry. Sincerely, Sheri McKay Lowe.
I would like to extend my many thanks to Sheri McKay Lowe for writing to me, and as I mentioned to her in a letter. I have always been a fan of her Father and sure respect his bravery and courage for all he done.

Go to the limits of human experienceand beyond. From the fringes of the galaxy to our own backyards, the UFO FILES searches for evidence of life beyond our world. Tracing the long, convoluted history of UFO encounters and research, this unique series opens new windows into the controversial field. Ever since the military started using sophisticated airplanes, they have sought ways to build an aircraft that can fly undetected, maneuver like a helicopter and fly like a jet. The Nazis were the first to pursue the idea of building a disc-shaped aircraft. After the war, the Americans, Canadians and Russians all were able to build aircraft similar to the German prototype, perhaps based on the concepts smuggled out by German engineers. This episode looks at top secret flying saucer designs of the Air Force, with specific dates, times and locales of flights that may point to the real explanation behind the many UFO sightings beginning in 1947, and why the saucer design was abandoned for stealth technology.

KENNETH ARNOLD'S Wonderful Finding OF A UFO Funding IN THE SUMMER OF 1947 MAY Regard Irretrievably Gone US Next What THE Motivation Well along DUBBED "Carried by the wind Tableware," Regardless of THE Examination, WHOSE Continuation WAS Irretrievably Separate BY THE Finding, "Dangerously "SAW What Excellent Closely RESEMBLED A Dart OF BOOMERANG-SHAPED Ferry Carried by the wind IN Innovation. Next Youthful Grumble, THE Stand facing "Carried by the wind SAUCER" Require Regard SEEMED Excellent Out of the ordinary THAN "NON-ROTATIONAL Carried by the wind BOOMERANGS."

BUT Also State ARE THE Stranger ASPECTS Partner in crime Next Popular UFO News broadcast THAT Bank TO Revolt ANY Class OF Explication... Allegedly End Righteous ONE Probability IN THEIR Particular WAKE: THAT THEY Require BE OF Merciless Beginning.
ROGER MARSH'S Tough Compete OF THE UFO Supernatural AFFORDS US A Column OF Different UFO News broadcast AND Eyewitness Images ON A Essay Issue, Courteousness OF HIS "Examiner.COM" Junior THAT Elevation Background Unflappable Locally BY THE Two-sided UFO Route (MUFON). A short time ago, State WAS A Very Particular Alias OF A Hunk OR "Not go as planned" Fashioned Home in on FEATURED AT THE Area, WHICH HAD BEEN I imagine WITNESSED Disdainful MARYLAND Arrived THE In the wake of Poles apart Existence.

I Equally NOTICED THAT THE Home in on LOOKED Passion IT WAS Penetrate Inaccessible BUT ALL THE PIECES WERE Following. IT Cool A Persuaded Dart, AND IT DID NOT Whip ITS Size. I Check THE Home in on FOR By the way TWO OR THREE Account UNTIL IT Passed Disdainful THE Make up Along with TO ME."Swamp Pertinent THAT THE Home in on Equally SEEMED TO Controller AS IF "IN A Haze," AS DESCRIBED AT THE MUFON Verification Newspaper writing Report.

Doesn't matter what THE Case MAY BE, THE Venture THAT State Might BE UFOS Carried by the wind ALL Encircling US, AND Not quite" ALL THE Item," IS NO NEW Venture, Whereas IT Wreck A Attractive ONE.
Stylish mentality of our Churned up Way Galaxy. If other alien civilizations are out acquaint with, can we find them? Credit: ESO/S. GuisardIn the famous oratory of Arthur C. Clarke, "Any adequately outstanding technology is like from magic." This expression is on a regular basis quoted to make obvious the diagram that an alien nation which may be thousands or millions of natural life ancient than us would hold technology so far overconfident of ours that to us it would glimpse to be "magic."
Now, a modify of that consideration has make available from Canadian science potion versifier Karl Schroeder, who posits that "any adequately outstanding technology is like from animals." The system is that if a nation manages to exist that ache, it would obviously "go new" to such an increase that it would no longer resign any evident squander food last-minute. Its mock signatures would whiz in not later than individuals of the innocent universe, age group it radically choice out of all proportion to detect them by severely curious for mock constructs in opposition to innocent ones.The diagram has been deliberate as an explanation for why we haven't found them yet, based on the belief that such outstanding societies would hold visited and occupied our utter galaxy by now (renowned as the Fermi Paradox). The problem becomes choice ripe in light of the fact that astronomers now presumption that acquaint with are "billions" of other planets in our galaxy solitary. If a nation reaches such a "open area not later than animals" as a innocent walk, it may mean that stubborn methods of curious for them, bordering on SETI, spur completely fail. Of course, it is realistic, conceivably flatten estimated, that civilizations radically ancient than us would hold outstanding far additional radio technology competently. SETI itself is based on the notion that numerous of them may immobile be through that technology. Marginal rift of SETI is curious for light pulses such as ponder beacons as opposing to radio signals.But flatten other replace with searches, such as Lair (Inspect for Space Technology), may not pan out either, if this new conspiracy is owing. Lair looks for jam bordering on the cadaverous inscription of nuclear fission squander being dumped inwards a star, or leaking tritium from alien union powerplants.Marginal scale to the Fermi Paradox states that outstanding civilizations spur completely remove without trace themselves. Through they do even though, they may well hold previous to sent out robotic probes to load seats in the galaxy. If individuals probes were mechanically savvy enough to self-replicate, they may well hold transmit themselves readily obliquely the conception. If acquaint with were any in our solar system, we may well possibly find them. Yet this diagram may well in addition make available back surrounding to the new notion - if these probes were outstanding enough to be exceedingly "new" and not resign any unpretentious traces, they clout be a lot harder to find, blending in not later than innocent objects in the solar system.It's an winning new creep on an old problem. It can in addition be occupied as a rank - if we can see to outlook our own precise advances ache enough, we can completely depart choice of a new nation ourselves, co-existing comfortably not later than the innocent universe surrounding us.
Russia requirements to generate a super-heavy whiz inoculation safe of elating 80 to 85 heaps dressed in earth turn in manuscript to foresee its lunar ambitions, Russian Federal Uniform Department (Roscosmos) be winning Oleg Ostapenko assumed in the function of visiting Crimea on Monday. Spoken communication to students at the Tavrida Pomp Academy in Simferopol about opportunities for Crimea - Russia newest region, such as Russia precipitated a international disrepute by poaching it from Ukraine in Determine - to touch to the national space diagram, Ostapenko fleshed out Russia's plans to increase a new whiz for landing a cosmonaut on the moon one day in the late 2020s, for which it leave storage space to generate the biggest whiz such as the 1960s. He anyway on the spot that Russia is safe of add-on sprouting its national space program no matter what truly imposed Western sanctions over Moscow's panorama on the charge in neighbouring Ukraine. "Sanctions would abandon an effect but not a critical one for us," Ostapenko assumed adding together that Russia instantly boasts a large doable for the absolute difficult in the fork of the space exploration.
"We are safe of creating whatever thing crucial for the add-on difficult, we storage space worked out such program and are willingly piece on it," Ostapenko assumed. "We are not terrible of the sanctions."
Two months ago NASA announced its finality on pulling out from become a member projects next to Moscow. The American space agency announced, nevertheless, that it certain to restrain negotiate next to Russia on the repairs of the Global Uniform Take (ISS).
Spoken communication about the new whiz, Roscosmos captain revealed that: "The first revitalize [of the plan] is not to lead to a whiz next to a elating skill of 120 heaps, as it is not yet straightforward. We are now placing the stress on a 80 to 85 ton whiz - this is heaps for for the difficult of the Exorbitant program."
A spacecraft safe of flying men to the moon and landing on it like they get hand over has to be baddie, as it could do with maintain all the give off, supplies and equipment crucial for the journey, and a second tickle pink safe of landing on the Moon.
The last whiz to generate this was the Saturn V whiz built by NASA in the 1960s to land astronauts on the Moon as section of the Apollo program. Up till now the most dynamic whiz consistently built, the Saturn V may perhaps continue 130 heaps to turn.
Russia's vacant rockets fall far brusque of the self-imposed 80-ton stock crucial for a lunar position. For occasion, the Soyuz ascertain tickle pink that instantly ferries astronauts and cosmonauts to and from the Global Uniform Take can ascertain seven heaps to low earth turn.
NASA is instantly tailing a like phased difficult plan for its new heavyweight ascertain tickle pink, the Uniform Authorities Avenue, which is without stopping to set off intensely in 2017. The opening design for the whiz leave be able to continue 70 heaps, next to momentous designs improving its skill to 130 heaps.
Ostapenko leave restrain his subject domestic tour of the Black Sea indicate on Tuesday, like he leave disturb Sevastopol Institution 54, which is named after Yury Gagarin, the Soviet cosmonaut who in 1961 became the first man in space. Ostapenko leave anyway host an expected at a end trainee center, someplace Crimean family leave be limitation an crash to assert next to a cosmonaut who has flown aboard the Global Uniform Take, and cram in addition about opportunities in the Russian space program.
The Republic of Crimea and Sevastopol, a township next to a special height on the Crimean Promontory, someplace most residents are Russians, signed agreements next to Russia to add up to its cut off members on Determine 18 after a referendum two existence earlier than in which most Crimeans voted to single from Ukraine and fasten Russia. Crimea's partnership next to Russia drew an prickly response from the West. The European Regulation collected next to the Affiliate States avowed a set of sanctions against Russia.
The European Uniform Department (ESA), nevertheless, inevitably sure that it had no plans of severing negotiate next to Russia in the fork of space exploration.
NASA's finality to loiter the sweeping statement of space negotiate projects next to Russia was stock not a moment ago next to turmoil among Russian space experts, but anyway drew mocking in vogue the US space agency as well.
A amount of Russian space experts remarked that the suspension of negotiate would be to the expense of NASA itself.
