Francis Ridge - UFO Nuclear Connection Project.

[Karl12]

NICAP Coordinator Francis Ridge has been quite a busy chap over the years and, as well as establishing their main website for archived material like the GSID and Chronologies section, he's also brought together quite a few like minded researchers who actively investigate aspects like government documentary evidence and specific UFO incidents.

Currently the NICAP Action Team is made up of 27 members. Our mission is to have and maintain a peer-reviewed source for the best UFO information in the world. All the major organizations are represented in our A-Team and it includes some of the best-known experts in the UFO field.

He can be seen here discussing a rather interesting 'S5P5' case and has also done some great work exposing how many USAF UFO explanations are in need of serious reappraisal (this thread also shows how many of them are in fact 'complete bollocks').

There's also the 'Nuclear Connection Project' he established in 2003 which (obviously) deals with the subject of UFOs visiting Nuclear Energy Sites and he and Jan Aldrich make some interesting comments below about how a Bluebook file containing 63 cases of UFOs over nuclear installations went 'missing'.

National Security, Missing Files, The Nuclear Key.

Almost from the beginning of the Air Force UFO investigations, patterns were starting to emerge, and the cover-up was already in place. Researcher & NCP member, Jan Aldrich notes:

In a 1952 LOOK article, Ruppelt mentions a file of 63 cases of UFOs over nuclear installations, but such a file is not in currently declassified Blue Book files.

There's also this relevant article which shows a nice illustration from an Air force manual and deals with an 'ominous correlation' between UFOs and atomic energy installations (even back in Ruppelt's era) - it also mentions the connection was discussed at a Pentagon conference and lists specific cases like the Savannah River, Hanford and Oak Ridge incidents.

This official flying disc illustration is taken from an Air Force Intelligence Manual, AFM 200-3, Chapter 9, page 3. The caption reads: "The Air Technical Intelligence Center is responsible for the prevention of technological surprise."

• NCP-05: UFOs Continue to Visit Nuclear Energy Sites

Looking back over the years during the 40th anniversary of UFOs in modern times (JUNE 24,1987) it is interesting to note that UFOs have been seen and recorded near various atomic energy locations in this country and overseas. This link was first noticed by Captain Edward Ruppelt in 1952 and reported in a LOOK magazine article (JUNE 24,1952) titled "Hunt For The Flying Saucer." Captain Ruppelt, who directed the U.S. Air Force Project Blue Book at that time, when viewing a folder of 63 mystifying UFO reports that had been plotted on a map of the United States discovered that it showed "an ominous correlation" with the location of various atomic energy installations. LOOK magazine learned that some high ranking officers had taken note of this fact and had then held a Pentagon conference to discuss these numerous strange concentrations that have continued to this day.

Such incidents at the Savannah River, Hanford, Los Alamos, Oak Ridge, McGuire , Cherokee and Indian Point nuclear and atomic plants are of continued vital interest and concern to scientific, military, civilian and governmental observers everywhere.
