Remembering Jeff Challender

Those Astounding Discoveries 

Of the late Jeff Challender

by Alfred Lehmberg

One Will Evans is perhaps still a staff writer for the Sacramento Bee in California's Capitol. This writer doesn't care enough to check. Remains he once took an... action. He once reflected, in part, the following on January 14th, 2003 at: 

http://www.sacbee.com/content/lifestyle/story/5884951p-6848710c.html. 

That link is dead. The article is reproduced here.

It was an article pertaining to Hynek's First Kind UFOs plainly shown on NASA file footage recorded by the late Jeff Challender as it is seen above. It would come to be astonishing footage largely waffled on by portentous pundits, the skeptibunky elite... and then the hugely conflicted and klasskurtxian officiality at NASA.

The obviously less than intrepid Mr. Evans reported:

The longtime aviation junkie [an immediate dismissal of Jeff Challender... did you catch it?] started taping missions in 1997, just for fun, to edit each one into a documentary. But in 1999, he saw something that grabbed his attention: an illuminated dot, pulsating as it whizzed across the screen. Then, later, he saw many white dots moving around, changing direction and speed. "What were they? Challender has been tracking similar "anomalies," ever since.

I throw the first flag here. Sneer quotes?! What fatuous, mal-informed and misinforming hubris is this!? ...Pretty cheeky in the face of seven clear categories of evidence signifying the UFO, illustrating the UFO, and providing substantiation for the UFO. Moreover, note the admission regarding "many white dots moving around, changing direction and speed." Is anyone else moved to a "wait... what?" moment? Where does "ice" and "trash" inexplicably change direction and speed? Evans would shamble on:

"I want answers," says the former railroad laborer. "I believe something's going on and the facts are being kept from us."

NASA isn't so sure.

Another flag down: see, a pox on suspect NASA (Never A Straight Answer), mere lapdogs, it would seem, for their unelected corporate handlers! ...Just another arm of the contemptibly corrupt system manipulating the already prevaricating smoke and distracting mirrors of an aforementioned unelected leadership? This writer suspects something like that is the case. 

NASA can only assume a patent cloak of patronizing condescension to hide their arbitrary and authoritarian guile! See, along with Mr. Challender, this writer would have some ANSWERS!  Lastly, describing Mr. Challender dismissively as a former "railroad laborer" was a cheap shot beneath the dignity of the SACRAMENTO BEE and akin to describing Edward Snowden as only a low tier intelligence analyst! Challender was obviously a man of intelligence who could see a project through to the end. What do we get from NASA but their inexplicable snow and an RGB roll! This is all well outlined in Challender's DOC.

Evans would proclaim an oddness from that time's NASA spokesman:

"I am not aware of any visuals of activity," says Fred Brown, then executive producer of NASA Television. 

What an odd and robotic thing to say! This writer observes that Mr. Brown is also unaware, apparently, of a controlling corporate hand shoved so far up his back-side that the quickly moving fingers have replaced his tongue and then stirred the malleable components of his brain! 

Evans continues to bury the lead...

Challender points to incidents where the camera seems to zoom in on one of the dots and then cuts off the live footage—signs, he says, of a cover-up.

...And if one has seen any of the quality stuff that Mr. Challender has analyzed and recorded (inexplicably changing direction and speed!), the remotely conscious reader would smell a "cover-up," too! Much of Challender's material will be archived or referenced at http://www.richarddolanpress.com/. Remains, what with the Navy lately cavorting in the skies with UFOs seemingly intelligently directed? It's no stretch they'd be space... then and now!

Evans continues:

Nonsense, Brown says. "If those things were out there and we were trying to hide them, we wouldn't put them on NASA Television."

Of course, they would... or fake it entirely... or show nothing at all! Gotta show something or folks wonder why there's not anything!  

So, maybe a little sleight of hand and bait and switch.  Moreover, they do try to hide them, reader, or why does the current visual signal come, now, only after significant time delays subsequent to some of the first anomalous and highly suspicious sightings? What's with all that moronic "snow" and RGB cloaking camouflage of what should be at least 1080p, if not Ultra HD? 

Everything now has a censor's ready hand hovering over a button. Why? Boobies in space?

Additionally, they would plainly show some of the *sightings*, but only for the purpose of "hiding" them in plain SIGHT as "ice crystals" and space trash... distractionary mechanisms for later use! Be not fooled! 

I aspire not to be, myself. 70, I've seen the world, been to the rodeo, and got the education. The carousel goes round and it's plain what's comin' after a few decades attention to it all. The Kingdom is at hand! Perdition, too. We might choose wisely!

Evans then becomes scientifically glib with a known canted tankman:

"Challender is probably seeing bits of liquid or ice, close to the camera, blown around by jets of gas from the shuttle, says Seth Shostak, an astronomer at the SETI Institute, a nonprofit organization running what used to be NASA's 'Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence.' "

Liquid? Probably, Shmobably my old wattled bum... 

Ah, yes—Dr. Shostak of the late Stanton Friedman's well-named "Silly Exercise To Investigate." Just another game-guy who wants to keep his place at the funding trough, and a man reluctant to re-think his thoughts or re-do work once thought done? This writer is un-swayed! ...Evans relays a final smirking sneer of patronizing derision with the usual pixie-smile closing from Shostak: 

"You have to be careful," [Shostak] says. "They're [anomalous lights in the sky] very impressive if you're naive."

Naive? Ha! Pompously pointing a finger to proclaim the naivete of others, Dr. Shostak points a pecuniary THREE back at himself! Significant others make compelling and cited arguments that it is HE who is more abundantly naive! Case in point as Evans tries for that time-honored "bothsiderist" faux-balance of journalistic mendacity:

...But [Dr.] Jack Kasher, a retired University of Nebraska, Omaha, physicist, says he's viewed Challender's findings, concluding that they aren't ice particles and challenging anyone who says so to prove it.

I've seen Doctor Kasher's work. It was not a one-off sidebar of idle proclamation. It is detailed, painstaking, scientific, and significant. It destroys the feeble explanations of his ax-grinding detractors, artless men who predictably attack the man when they cannot refute his airtight arguments! Then Evans drops Seth's bomb... not seeing how it hoists their own petard:

Still, Shostak says, "why would SETI spend millions searching for alien radio signals if there were Martians buzzing around every NASA mission?"

Haha! Exactly! Why indeed? A straight answer to THAT question would re-write history and make bogus heavens FALL! ...And if heaven CAN fall, reader, it probably should! 

Remains that Mr. Shostak's silly effort to investigate is akin to "searching the heavens for smoke signals" (Friedman)! If they're "here," the reader might begin to understand, then why spend any money at all looking for them... "there"?

"Shostak believes that there is alien life. If 10 percent of stars had planets and 1 percent of those supported life, there could be millions of worlds with life just in our galaxy, he calculates."

...Which is merely a loss-leader, reader, a throw-away mouth-movement, and a meaningless comment so as to appear balanced and open-minded. He still won't *cop* that if he believes they could be anywhere then they could just as easily be here! He won't *cop* that the abundant evidence of them being here has a history of thousands of years writ in ink, pressed into clay, and scratched into eternal stone... he blithely forgets the testimony of an affected thousands, the quality photographs, and the physical trace evidence involved with their (obvious!) presence... how? Closing, how about a begged question from our space agency?

But NASA would have no incentive to hide any evidence. "That would be the greatest thing for NASA. Their budget would go up instead of going down,' Shostak says.

Yes! That's the kicker argument! That seems, at first glance, to be the definitive and unassailable dispute to Jeff Challender's astounding assertions! UFOs would be a BOON for NASA But glance again! Would they really? See, Shostak's unctuous, facile, and patronizing comment ASSUMES the veracity of a "forward-looking" and "clear-eyed" NASA motivated only by truth and driven to it by real science. ...But is it really? Can that assumption be made with any confidence? 

This writer thinks not! On reflection and being fair? The reader can't either! We are NOT alone, and a brave Jeff Challender had captured it on tape! This is a lasting legacy which will survive him. Watch the DOC. It holds up! Thank you, Mr. Challender!
