covered with a tarp (Huyghe 92). In this incident people saw the object, but the Army

apparently didn?t want more people to see it because they covered it with the tarp.

The fifth and last encounter is known as the Tex-Mex Episode. In 1977 a retired

Air Force Lieutenant Colonel said in a sworn document that he and another pilot had

been flying a f-94 in the experimental stage, out of a Texas Air Force base. Ground radar

told them a UFO was about to come into view. They watched a disc-shaped object make

a 90 degree turn. They asked to chase it and were told not to. Radar tracking indicated

that the UFO crashed near the Texas-Mexico border. The Colonel landed their jet,

boarded a light plane, and flew to the crash. They saw the object in the sand. The

Tex-Mex story first surfaced during an investigation by W. Todd Zechel. During the

exercise there was an alien being claimed to have been recovered (Huyghe 93).

There are many encounters and unexplained phenomena, most are recorded in

Project Blue Book. At the end of a 22-year operation more than 700 sightings listed in the

Project Blue Book logs remained unexplained (Cooper 81). There are many that have

been explained but also the 700 that have not.

It is really up to you to decide weather you believe in UFOs or not, but the way

the government tries to hide, and cover-up things certainly makes me wonder about the

truth. Like Howard Blum said, ?They?re embarrassed, and even a little frightened, by

their inability to explain certain phenomena (Huyghe 92).?
