A showdown against aliens took place decades ago??
It is theorized (based on various information) that the Soviet Union was involved in a conflict with extraterrestrials. Russian contact with beings from other planets would have taken place during the 1940s and 1950s.
During that period, a large number of UFO sightings spread across the US, as reports of unidentified flying objects, strange men dressed in black and alien abductions appeared in large numbers in the most diverse media reporting the incidents.
Around the same time, the Soviets also began to report multiple contacts with supposed non-terrestrial beings, as well as receiving a very high number of reports of UFOs entering Russian airspace.
UFO investigator Paul Stonehill told Daily Star Online:
“The Soviets were absolutely baffled that so many unidentified flying objects could cross their borders and just do what they wanted, without the slightest control on the part of the Kremlin.”
Paul Stonehill spoke with former military intelligence teams, government big names and Soviet experts to try to reveal more information about Soviet contacts with UFOs.
Throughout the Cold War period and during the \’space race\’, Soviet forces repeatedly confronted UFOs.
Stonehill said:
“The Kremlin was very worried, but they just couldn\’t do anything about it. They pooled their efforts in several situations, when orders were issued from high above to shoot down the UFOs, or else local commanders would be penalized. However, it always ended disastrously for them.”
The researcher, whose articles have been published in 11 languages, highlighted a culture of general secrecy about the phenomenon in the Soviet Union.
People of the highest rank in the Kremlin reported any reports of UFOs to the public as being “hoaxes carried out by Western forces”.
A secret study project, titled SETKA, was established in 1977 after the Petrozavodsk phenomenon, in which 48 unidentified flying objects appeared in the skies of the Soviet Union.
The phenomenon reached its scariest point in the industrial city of Petrozavodsk, when a titanic luminous object appeared in the sky – apparently projecting columns of light towards the Earth.
The main objective of the project was to find out what the anomalous objects were – with the Soviet authorities recognizing that the UFO could not be something made on Earth.
Stonehill reported that several of the program\’s files remain inaccessible, but he added that they (the files) were sent and duly analyzed among the greatest military (from the most diverse areas) and scientific minds of the communist states.
Forms were also distributed to Soviet soldiers, sailors or pilots, who reported close contact with UFOs in full detail.
A deadly encounter between an extraterrestrial spacecraft and Soviet military forces took place in 1953, shortly after Stalin\’s death.
A UFO with an expressive size, appeared over Taiga, Siberia. Soviet soldiers sent a special detachment to the site. The moment Soviet planes tried to approach the object, they completely burned up in midair, says Stonehill.
Important guidance was released by Soviet forces during the mid-1960s, stating strict instructions: “Do not shoot at UFOs, leave them alone”…
Stonehill said:
“These extraterrestrial entities defended themselves and exterminated any units that shot at them. They simply disintegrated aircraft, and on a few (few) occasions the UFOs also acted first.
“No government wants to be weak in the face of a threat, and it has reached a point where the Soviets are very concerned about the situation.”
However, despite these more hostile contacts, he reports that most Soviet encounters were characterized by alien craft merely \’monitoring\’ activities.
He said:
“It was basically as if the Soviets were literally under a microscope. There was a lot of UFO information monitoring most, if not all, Soviet space launches. UFOs seemed to be aware of spaceports and even secret facilities.”
However, he adds that the main purpose of these beings (or UFOs) is still a mystery.
