I always like to do a quick read of my notes just to run it home one more time <| sep |> The last sentence is both completely logical and morbidly hilarious at the same time . <| sep |> J Allen Hynek has some pretty interesting things to say . He was the civilian scientist IIRC on the project which was to investigate UFO reports . All that stuff about UFOs bring Venus or swamp gas is from him . Basically worked like this CIA and military would go to him and say what would be a very bright light in the sky at midnight on June 22 for example . Then he would say I don ' t know . Venus ? ! Military would say it was proven to be Venus . He said there were massive problems with the project from the beginning . Talks about a few cases he was asked to answer for and ended up telling them clearly this was a controlled vehicle military would say not Russians right ? And he would say definitely not Russians , not a chance . It ' s someone else . He went into the project not believing there were such things alien contact and left saying it seemed the visits were more likely inter dimensional travelers . He also might have just been bat shit crazy . Who knows . But interesting nonetheless .
