Almost everyone familiar with the study of ufos, knows who Stanton Friedman is. He is probably one of the most famous and respected people involved with this study. Mr. Friedman, was at one time, a classmate of Carl Sagan, the famous astronomer. He has a BSc and MSc in physics from the University of Chicago, received in 1955 and 1956, and has worked as a nuclear physicist for several different companies. He began his lectures on ufos in 1967 and lectured on the college circuit. but has become so famous that he is sought by many groups in many different countries. He has appeared on many tv shows and also on radio programs. On never knows when he might hear or see Mr. Friedman while watching a program about ufos in front of the old box. One of the things that made Mr. Friedman so famous was the fact that he was the only civilian investigator of the Roswell crash. Can you imagine what that must have been like? I'm sure the military didn't take too kindly to that. Mr. Station wrote a couple of books that rocked the ufo world. The first was a book he co-authored titled "Crash at Corona: The Definitive Study of the Roswell Incident". The other book titled, "Top Secret/Majic", was about the existence of the Majestic 12 group, something the government has always denied. The majectic group is a group that supposedly runs a secret government that deals with all ufo events. Mr Friedman spent many years looking for proof of the existence of this group and finally found it in the form of a government memo that mentions the group. There are many Majestic 12 or MJ12 documents on the internet but most if not all were thought to be forgeries, because it was not believed that this group existed. Now that the memo was found in the government archives acknowledging the existence of MJ12, who knows if some or all of these documents are real or not? Another place that one might find the work of Mr. Friedman is in magazine articles. Mr. Friedman was given the Lifetime Achievement Award in 2002 by UFO Magazine. Even the Congress of the United States has requested that he present written testimony before them. But as I said before, he is not limited to the U.S. He has appeared twice before the United Nations. Mr. Friedman possesses dual citizenship with the United States and Canada. Mr Friedman believes that the evidence points to the fact that the Earth is being visited by intelligently controlled extraterrestrial spacecraft. He has artfully advanced his arguments. He doesn't believe that all ufo are such craft, and as a matter of fact, he believes that many are not. He states that there is a mountain of proof but most people have never read the five major studies that he usually discusses at the lectures. He stated that he feels that the more educated someone is, the greater the chance that they will accept the fact that some ufos are alien craft. Mr. Friedman has interviewed countless people both military and civilian for many years. This has allowed him to build a case showing that the government is involved in a cover up of monumental proportions. At his last lecture he presented many facts gleamed from government files along with some of the results of his interviews. This was meant to show exactly how the cover up was accomplished. He also presented evidence of two flying saucer crashes at Roswell along with the recovery of alien bodies. He went on to say that when he was investigating the Roswell incident, he became aware of government research into alien technology and "black budgets". He cites Project Blue Book special report 14. It is said that this report gives a list in detail of the physical evidence found that support the fact that some ufos are alien craft. Mr. Friedman said, "Though we are clearly a primitive society whose major activity is tribal warfare, I hope we can qualify for admission to the 'Cosmic Kindergarten." |
