New Year's Eve 1982 marked the beginning of one of the most puzzling UFO cases in recent times: the Hudson Valley "siege." The siege begot over 7,000 sightings of a boomerang-shaped craft or crafts moving silently through the sky over New York and Connecticut between 1982 and 1995. Night Siege is the collaborative effort of Hynek, Imbrogno, and Pratt to report the data gathered from witnesses of this mystifying experience, without speculation of what it might be. If you missed the first edition of Night Siege, this is your chance to delve into the Hudson Valley mystery. If you have read the first edition, you may be interested in the additional data covering sightings from 1986 to 1995, the graphical analysis of the UFO's appearance, and the chronology of the sightings. Aside from the purely factual value of the catalog of reports in Night Siege, its coverage of an undeniable series of events that somehow went largely untouched by the local authorities and the national media invites speculation into the origins of these silent objects. --Brian Patterson

Well written and scientifically presented, here is the definitive casebook by Dr. Hynek (deceased) et al. His credentials were impressive.
Includes detailed histories of the mass sightings from the Hudson Valley, including the names and place of work in most cases: police, engineers, physicians, pilots, attorneys--the very people who have a lot to lose by coming forward. And yet they did come forward! You can actually meet some of these people at MUFON gatherings. Contains good index." (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-11-30 01:55:32 EST)

It is written by the father of scientific ufology.
So expect a serious book. The American government can no longer deny the truth about UFOs. Read this book and you will understand everything. (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-08-20 00:43:01 EST)

This is an update and comprehensive review of the Huson River UFO sightings from the 1980's to the present written by the team who did the investigation. The summary of different aspects of the case at the end of the book are invaluable to the study of ufolgy.
You will learn about the Hudson River UFO from its inception to the present and have the opportunity to examine the evidence. (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-07-13 02:33:10 EST)

A few years ago, I read this fascinating account about the famous "Weschester Boomerang" sightings of the Hudson Valley and what made this so believable was that it was coming from the type of people who were highly educated and were the type of people who laugh at people who claimed to have witnessed UFO's. The first time I had ever heard about these sightings was on an Unsolved Mysteries episode. A number of people thought this was a spaceship from another world and so did I at one time. However, it wasn't until I researched the life, times, and inventions of a brilliant genius named Nikola Tesla that I realized that all UFO's are most likely secret government projects that are still using his inventions to this very day. What is incredible about Tesla is that he invented a lot of technology that we use today back in the late 1800's!! Among his inventions were remote control, lasers, X-Rays, Alternating Current, Radio, Robotics, and Wireless Communication, just to name a few. What is amazing is that he had over 700 patents and a lot of his work he had to keep secret, for fear of being stolen from other people, which is why we haven't heard much about his inventions until years later. In fact, computers were actually already being developed as early as the 1940's, using Tesla's technical know-how, and Tesla was by far not the only genius who developed items that were way ahead of their time. When one sees how much technology was actually invented over 100 years ago, then it is not hard to believe that the government around the 1980's would have a huge metallic structure that could fly silently, especially when one realizes that technology is exponential. Also, in recent years there have been a number of articles written about the government experimenting with anti-gravity technology--no, not from aliens, but from geniuses like Nikola Tesla.
At any rate, this book is well-written and is surprisingly down to earth for being a UFO book and is fun reading. (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-02-20 07:51:25 EST)
