1967:
The Overlooked UFO Wave and the Colorado Project
Richard Hall, MUFON 1978 UFO
Symposium Proceedings A major wave of UFO sightings occurred
in 1967; even by official Air Force figures it was the
4th largest in terms of sightings reported, yet no one
talks about it. The special significance of the 1967
wave is that it occurred during the one full year of
investigations by the University of Colorado UFO
Project.
A
Revival of the 61-Month Wave Theory Donald A. Johnson,
Ph.D. The Knowles
family CE-II encounter with an ovoid-shaped UFO on the
Nullarbor Plateau in Western Australia January 20th was
right on target in terms of time and place, according to
the 61-month wave cycle first proposed by Dr. David
Saunders back in 1971. At least two other UFO encounters
of major importance occurred that same night in
Australia and Tasmania. If the indications are correct
and this is not an isolated incident but the beginnings
of a major UFO wave, we will have to reconsider the
significance of this long-term prediction...

Analyzing
UFO Waves - Surge of Sightings Imminent? Joseph W. Ritrovato, MUFON UFO Journal,
March, 1995 During
my investigation into the UFO phenomena all promising
sightings were collected from ancient times to the
present to see if any noticeable patterns would arise.
Nobody (to my knowledge) has been able to claim success
in predicting UFO waves consistently, but this could be
explained by many periodic factors interacting rather
than just one or two waveforms. R

Preliminary
Calibration of a UFO Wave Ahmad Jamaludin, UFO Research
Malaysia The
magnitude of UFO waves varies in intensity both in time
and space. There is, however, at the moment, no method
or any attempt by any researcher to accurately quantify
a UFO wave. R
Signals,
Noise, and UFO Waves Richard Hall, The International UFO
Reporter, Winter, 1999 Over the past 50 years a seeming
outbreak of UFO sightings has captured public and news
media attention on average about every five to eight
years. Sometimes the sightings have been sufficiently
spectacular that the publicity has led someone to
attempt a scientific study, but these studies usually
bog down in confusion and controversy, and the interest
fades away.
The
Great UFO Wave: October, 1973 - What Happened?
Kenny Young, UFO Research,
Cincinnati Perhaps
one day through future revelation or discovery, history
may acknowledge the bizarre blitz of UFO sightings
across America which happened in the shadows of
Watergate. But for today, most people are unaware of the
extraordinary UFO Wave of 1973. R
The
Importance of UFO Waves Joseph W. Ritrovato, MUFON UFO Journal
of June, 1996 In
his book UFOs and Outer Space Mysteries, UFO skeptic
James E. Oberg proposes a hypothetical test case to
demonstrate that there is probably nothing of
significance to the UFO phenomena. If one was to search
his book for any reference to UFO waves one would come
up empty handed. He ignores the subject entirely. The
reason, I suspect, is he knows that therein lies
possible proof that UFOs are a serious phenomena and
distinctly different from simple misidentifications or
overly active imaginations. R

UFO
Flaps - A Context for Scientific Study Bill Chalker One of the more frustrating aspects of
the UFO phenomenon is its unpredictability. One of the
mainstays of the scientific method is the repeatable
experiment. In the case of an unpredictable and elusive
phenomenon this is rather hard to organise.
Occassionally UFO phenomena occurs in specific
localities for an extended period. These are refered to
as localised "flaps". R
UFO
Patterns & Predictions Researchers have tried to establish
one aspect of the UFO phenomenon; not at the locations
where sightings have taken place, but as regards the
time of the periodicity of UFOs. The reports of
sightings are based on the time factor with possible
correlation of their periodicity, to type of physical
interpretation that shows a similar periodicity.
