Stanton T. Friedman received BSc and MSc degrees in physics from the University of Chicago in 1955 and 1956. He was employed for 14 years as a nuclear physicist for such companies as GE, GM, Westinghouse, TRW Systems, Aerojet General Nucleonics, and McDonnell Douglas on such advanced, classified, eventually cancelled, projects as nuclear aircraft, fission and fusion rockets, and nuclear powerplants for space.

UFOs - STANTON FRIEDMAN IS REAL - Part 4
Stanton Friedman takes a clear-cut unambiguous stand that SOME UFOs are alien spacecraft, that the subject of flying saucers represents a Cosmic Watergate, that none of the anti-UFO arguments made by a variety of noisy negativists stand up to careful scrutiny, and that we are dealing with the biggest story of the past millennium: visits to Planet Earth by alien spacecraft and the successful coverup by governments of the best data: alien wreckage and bodies recovered in New Mexico, for 56 years. He has spent many weeks at a total of 20 document archives. Stan has successfully taken on many critics of flying saucers, Roswell, Majestic 12, including winning a debate at Oxford University.
Nuclear Physicist-Lecturer Stanton T. Friedman grew up in Linden, NJ, spent 2 years at Rutgers University and then received his BSc.And MSc. Degrees in physics from the University of Chicago in 1955 and 1956. He was employed for 14 as a nuclear physicist by such companies as GE, GM, Westinghouse, TRW Systems, Aerojet General Nucleonics, and McDonnell-Douglas working in such highly advanced, classified, eventually cancelled programs as nuclear aircraft, fission and fusion rockets, and various compact nuclear power-plants for space applications.
He became interested in UFOs in 1958 and since 1967 has lectured about them at more than 600 colleges and 100 professional groups in 50 states, 9 provinces and 14 other countries in addition to various consulting efforts. He has published more than 80 UFO papers and has appeared on hundreds of radio and TV programs. He is the original civilian investigator of the Roswell Incident and co-authored Crash at Corona: The Definitive Study of the Roswell Incident. TOP SECRET/MAJIC his controversial book about the Majestic 12 group established in 1947 to deal with alien technology was published in 1996 and went through 6 printings. A new edition is scheduled for 2005. Stan was presented with a Lifetime UFO Achievement Award in Leeds, England, in 2002, by UFO Magazine of the UK.

He has spent many weeks at a total of 20 Document Archives and has been collecting numerous examples of official government lies about UFOs. He has often taken on critics of flying saucer reality, Roswell, Majestic 12, interstellar travel. He anchored the winning tam in a UFO debate at Oxford University and single handedly defeated Dr. Seth Shostak of the SETI Institute in a debate on Coast-to-Coast Radio. He appeared in the Peter Jennings UFO Documentary "UFO's: Seeing Is Believing" on February 24, 2005.
Paul Kimball has, for reasons unknown, become very upset about my claiming that he got things wrong about Wilbert Smith, Van Bush, MJ-12 in “Flying Saucers and Science”.
Stanton Friedman Paul claims in various blogs that I havesaid that Wilbert Smith headed a major Canadian UFO group, that President Truman would never have appointed Dr. Vannevar Bush to head the MJ-12 project had there been one; that Smith was basically an individual not to be respected, a kind of nobody, that Truman didn’t like Bush., etc. Paul spent 6 hours at the Dalhousie University Library looking up comments in the Canadian Hansard (unclassified record of Parliamentary testimony)made about UFOs back in the 1950s. He apparently spent no time with Smith’s papers in an archive in Ottawa. He apparently didn’t look into Defense Research Board Materials at the National Archives in Ottawa. The 300+ page formerly classified DRB UFO file has been available for a number of years. He totally neglected what I have said about the comments made by George Elsey, who had responsible positions at the White House as noted below during Truman’s entire tenure there.
Nowhere did I,or anybody else besides Paul, claim Truman had appointed V. Bush to head Operation Majestic 12. The proof is the statement in the Truman Forrestal memo. It clearly authorized James Forrestal, the new and first Secretary of Defense, to proceed with Operation Majestic 12. He did not authorize Bush to proceed with Majestic 12. He did say “It continues to be my feeling that future considerations relative to the ultimate disposition of this matter should rest solely with the Office of the President following appropriate discussions with yourself, Dr. Bush, and the Director of Central Intelligence.”
July 11th,CNN's Larry King Live will feature MUFON State Director, Ken Cherry, Journalist Angelia Joiner and Seth Shostak.
By, MUFON Field Investigator Terry Groff and Virtually Strange's UFO Updates
MUFON Texas State Director Ken Cherry, Journalist Angelia Joiner and one of our favorite skepti-bunkers Seth Shostak will be on Larry King this Friday, July 11. 8:00 p.m. Central.
Oddly there are points where Cherry and I may be agreeing with Shostak, particularly about the Caron Video and the Mike Zimmerman sighting of January 31 during the Stephenville flap.
Caron, as you may know, videotaped an object for 15 minutes with his camera set on night mode. The result was a series of "hieroglyphic" images. We contend he was actually videotaping the star Arcturus.
Zimmerman arose at about 6:05am on January 31st to see three objects, two of which sent out beams of light. We contend he was viewing the rare conjunction of Jupiter and Venus. I know it's a cliche but this time it's true. About Ken Cherry Stephenville UFO report out About Angelia Joiner Stephenville Lights
