February 19, 2001: UFO Expert - Don Ecker
Published 1 year, 5 months ago
Description
Art Bell opens with a mystery signal detected at 3.39 megahertz that listeners across the country are reporting at unusual strength. He speaks with Nick Begich, author of Angels Don't Play This HAARP, who reveals that Dr. Bernard Eastland, inventor of the HAARP patents, suspects the signal may involve electron acceleration from either the HAARP facility, Norway, or Russia. HAARP officials deny involvement, though their own staff cannot agree on when the last test occurred.
The program shifts to lunar anomalies with UFO Magazine research director Don Ecker, who presents photographs from NASA archives showing objects that appear to have rolled upward out of craters on the moon, leaving tank-like tread marks. In the King's Crater region, Ecker points out structures resembling a satellite dish and buildings with illuminated windows. He notes that a NASA geologist at Ames Research Center agreed to discuss the photos on camera but withdrew after actually viewing them.
Ecker argues that secrecy surrounding lunar findings parallels UFO concealment, citing the Brookings Institute report prepared for NASA that warned contact with a technologically superior civilization could destabilize human societies. Art and Ecker debate why NASA would suppress such evidence rather than use it to secure funding for future missions.
