Stephenville, it seems like this incident just refuses to fade quietly into the night. While I initially thought the what flew over the small Texas town might be some sort of secret military project, now I wonder if the government has other reasons for wanting Stephenville out of the headlines. Today, Billy Booth recounts the tale of a UFO writer who found some very interesting information and after publishing it was forced to remove it by an un-named government agency saying it could cause “public fear and unrest”. What information could cause such a ruckus?

The writer in question received a tip that fighter jets that were above Stephenville the night of January 8th flew very close to the no-fly-zone that surrounds President Bush’s ranch outside Crawford, Texas. This close proximity raises the question, did someone or something violate the President’s no fly zone? Were the F-16s seen by residents around Stephenville dispatched to intercept an unknown craft? Is the ease with which the craft violated some of the most heavily guarded airspace in the country and evaded some of our country’s most advanced warplanes why the military and government are going to such great lengths to sweep this incident under the rug? Lets take a look to see if there could be some validity to this theory.

As much as the US Military would like us to think that what the town of Stephenville saw was nothing more than a military training mission with common everyday fighter jets, there is no denying that there was something out of the ordinary in the sky that night. Today I came across an article in the Stephenville Empire-Tribune that got me thinking that whatever was over Stephenville is from a little closer to home than many people may be considering.

The article is about Stephenville resident Ricky Sorrells, who was allegedly threatened by the US Military if he didn’t stop talking about what he saw. While Sorrells’s story of government intimidation is week on verifiable details (though the thought of being harassed by the government is scary enough that I wish him the best of luck), there is one little pearl hidden in the article that is definitely worth exploring (and I think many people are overlooking). Sorrells claims to have seen the craft that flew over Stephenville on 4 different occasions and he describes the craft as being 3 to 4 football fields in length. While not incredibly descriptive in the least, it did get me thinking about a potential terrestrial source of the craft that if true would be straight out of science fiction. In the movie “Sky Captain and The World of Tomorrow” (coincidentally a very good movie if you haven’t seen it), the heros land on massive aircraft that serves as an aircraft carrier/air base. I wondered, could the Air Force be developing a similar platform?
