Douglas Aircraft – UFO Research Documents

Douglas Aircraft – UFO Research Documents

These documents pertain to the research of small team of
people in the Douglas Aircraft corporation in 1967 – 1969. They show that some
people there took the UFO phenomenon seriously – and regarded them as real,
physical objects. Someone decided that it was worth studying them in detail,
with a view to developing a new method of propulsion – based on a new theory of
physics. This research was, of course, secret.

In total, there are about 200 pages of documents,
although some of these are just cover sheets.

The documents were  left in a barn which may have belonged to
a Douglas employee who died or moved. The new owner of the place found the
files, and sold them on Ebay for $31.00. They were uploaded to my computer for
internet publishing.

It is hoped to provide a “text” version of the documents at
some point in the future. Currently, they are provided in “Web
Versions” and PDF
versions.

If you have any problems viewing these documents, or you wish
to obtain a copy of these files on CD (for the cost of CD + shipping), please

SMALL UPDATE Feb 2016, one of the researchers who wrote some
of the documents below has published a book called “The Mechanical Theory of
Everything”. See http://basicresearchpress.com/the-mechanical-theory-of-everything/ 

Further notes on the Documents

a) Contactee Aspects

The gathering of information from contactees is described as the second main
avenue of deriving useful data on UFO propulsion on page 11 of the “PROPOSED
VEHICLE R&D PROGRAM DOCUMENT (Project BITBR)” (A-830-BB01-JMB-2) drafted June
25, 1968 which outlines the program in general. Their rationale for the use of
contactee data can best be derived from the so-called “ADVANCED VEHICLE CONCEPTS
RESEARCH” presentation dated May 2nd, 1968 mentions on page 50, “PHILOSOPHY:
HEAR EVERYTHING AND USE SOME OF IT TO OUR ADVANTAGE” and on page 25, CONTACTEE
DATA COULD BE USEFUL,  EXPERIENCING HIGH ACCELERATIONS WITHOUT FORCES,  VISUAL
INTERNAL APPEARANCE OF VEHICLES

Most of the documentation that I have regarding gathering information from
contactees was drafted subsequent to this date and prior to the drafting of the
“CURRENT RECOMMENDED TASKS FOR 3-6 MAN EFFORT” (A-830-BB01-JMB-10) on September
16, 1968 which states on page 3:

3. The experimental program is being expanded with a strong emphasis on the end
product. 
4. Ancillary investigations of psi phenomena, other unusual phenomena, and
contactees are being minimized. 
 

On page 2 it states that, “The present interview program may
uncover useful information. However…it seems a considerably better bet to
minimize, but not terminate, this effort.” I do know that Paul Wilson was still
drafting reports regarding a radio contactee named Meriam Ovaskainen as late as
October 7th but that’s the last one that I have. 

b) Technical Aspects
 

Summarizing what I’ve been able to put together so far
beginning with the “SPACE PROPERTIES CONCEPTS” MEMORANDUM (A-830-BB01-JMB-2)
from August 14, 1967. The purpose of this document is to outline some possible
space propulsion concepts that follow from the so-called “Unifying Kinetic
Particle Theory of Physics” that J M Brown came up with which states that there
is a single unifying particle, the ‘brutino’, that moves at 1.4 times the speed
of light and everything in the universe including space itself as well as all
particles and forces can be derived from it and its behavior. For example, on
pages 10-11 of J M Brown’s “A Unifying Kinetic Particle Theory of Physics”,
gravity is described as the (rate of?) flow of brutinos into vs. out of matter
(which should occur at the above mentioned brutino speed obviously).* All of
these research programs are attempts to apply this new theoretical model.

*Fun facts dept., according to Burkhard Heim’s “Unified Field Theory”, gravity
is calculated to propagate at 1.3333333… times the speed of light
(Interdisciplinary UFO Research MUFON-CES-Report No. 11 1993 p. 215). I bring
this up simply to compare the figures and mention that Burkhard Heim’s theories
of a 6 dimensional cosmosphere are extended directly from Wilbert Smith’s as
described in his book The
New Science.
 

They began by proposing very simple experiments to determine
any attraction or reaction between magnetic fields and electrostatic charges
arranged in a circle, the purpose being to simulate the dynamics of elementary
particles (specifically the electron) on a macrocosmic scale (PROPOSAL FOR
ELECTROSTATIC/MAGNETIC EXPERIMENTS, December 20, 1967, pp. 7-8). According to
the memorandum “CURRENTLY PREFERRED PROPULSION CONCEPT” (A-830-BB01-JMB-1) dated
February 14, 1968, the author exhibits his confidence in the specific
experimental approaches to determining the validity of the kinetic particle
theory not to mention a possible gambling problem by laying out the
probabilities for success of each in terms of ‘betting odds’ (maybe one of the 3
brains in the jars from that Star Trek episode wrote this part, ‘I bet 400
quatloos on the neutrino flux’). The chance for success of any of the 3
experiments mentioned in the previous document is listed at 20% (that’s 4 to 1
against for you gambling addicts out there).

The next memorandum describing the proposed “GA PROPULSION SYSTEM” experiment
(A-830-BB01-JMB-6) dated August 22, 1968 is the one I find the most promising.
It basically describes creating an electron vortex in a magnetic cylinder in an
attempt to get a stream of gravitons to come out. It also mentions giving the
magnetic field a high frequency (rotation?) corresponding to the speed an
electron traverses the circumference of the cylinder. This approach draws some
comparison to Wilbert Smith’s experiments in field propulsion. With regards to
rotating magnetic field experiments, the so-called “ADVANCED VEHICLE CONCEPTS
RESEARCH” presentation dated May 2nd, 1968 mentions for proposed vehicle
experiments on page 48,

GENERATION OF HIGH MAGNETIC FIELDS
MECHANICALLY ROTATE CHARGES 
ROTATION OF MAGNETS 
ROTATION OF MAGNETS IN LARGE MAGNETIC FIELD 
HEATED RING ROTATING MAGNET

The next document, CURRENT RECOMMENDED TASKS OF 3-6 MAN EFFORT
(A-830-BB01-JMB-10) dated September 16, 1968 again reiterates the principal
focus of the entire program, a scheme to organize and release the flow of
fundamental kinetic particles. It recommends that they get going on the 3
proposed experiments, the speed of light/magnetic field interaction, atmospheric
vortex/electron model and Gravity Amplification (GA) experiments.

Now, as far as results go, there isn’t much documentation in general and none
which describe any successful results. I believe I read in the documents
somewhere that the first 3 “electrostatic/magnetic” experiments produced no
results but I can’t find where I read that. Now with regards the speed of
light/magnetic field interaction experiment, a memo was drawn up
(A-830-BB01-HCB-41) dated July 18th, 1969 indicating that they weren’t
successful in creating any diffraction pattern of light in a magnetic field but
recommend ed trying again with more precise optical equipment. Then there’s a
handwritten draft of a proposal for carrying out a simulation of ‘the kinetic
particle theory’ model of the electron using air which was written February
12th,1969. 
Other than all of the above, the memo “EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH AND FIELD DATA
ACQUISITION – PROJECT VEHICLE” (A-830-BB01-WPW-12) which was drafted October
28th, 1968 proposes some other experiments which may or may not have been
carried out on page 3 under the heading “OTHER EXPERIMENTS”.

These include:

B. Rotating charge (capacitor) voltage amplification. 
C. Magnetic properties of moving current carrying conductor. 
D. Magnetic field generation, rotating particles; Measure, charge density –
lifetime – gravitational effects – influence on other particles, etc. 
E. Particle – Radiation Interaction;

Bombard electrons with high energy photons under various conditions and measure
for possible gravitational effects.
Unfortunately, no information on hand would give us any indication of how far
these experiments went beyond the aforementioned materials.
 

Robert Wood discusses the program on pages 433-440 of Steven
Greer’s book Disclosure.  Among the things
to be noted: page 435,  Wood and Co. briefed the Condon Committee which was
ongoing at the same time.  They explained that it was possible to make a
superconductive ring of current float in the earth’s magnetic field with only 10
times the current capacity that they had available at that time.  Condon wasn’t
interested.  Wood then wrote and suggested that the committee work in 2 groups,
believers and nonbelievers.  Condon retaliated by writing to the head of the
company and trying to have Wood fired.  On page 437 he mentions that they spent
around $500,000 between 1968 and 1970.  This figure is close to what the Condon
Committee spent around the same time according to David Saunders’ book UFOs Yes!
(page 182).
