I saw your site, a couple of weeks ago and immediately liked it. I have also read the articles. It seems that some of the best UFO investigating is done by open-minded people who otherwise have little abiding interest in the subject.

I didn’t think that Loman made it either, but was possibly taken in by whoever supplied it to him, as you reported in part 3 of your series on the the video. Don’t get too caught up in UFO stuff, it’ll drive you nuts!

Is the Daily Lobo published by the University there in ABQ? Also, are you working on/ aware of the “Weird New Mexico” book coming out from the Weird US people? I wrote a greater portion of the California volume.

Personally, I now believe that Ted Loman did not make this video–I believe it’s some sort of test footage from White Sands Missile Range, circa 1996–but I do believe that Mexican UFOlogist hand quite a hand in dishonestly promoting it.

See my articles for more info: “UFOs Will Crash, Parts I, II, and III” at http://www.mystrangenewmexico.com.

Great website, by the way! I like the concise entries and skeptical humor.

Interesting footage whether simply a failed rocket test or otherwise. Love the big skip effect, “like a saucer skipping on the water…” - until it bursts into dazzling sparkler-works!

Ted Loman! There’s a name I’ve not heard in ten years. I’ve still got some vids of his old UFOAZ TALK shows.

I think the real story behind the vast majority of so-called UFO videos is the people themselves, and not the videos. Billy Meier would be at the top of that list.
