On this occasion, he added another 2700 pages to his collection. John commented on the CIA’s statement that there was no way he could verify their claims. We can only speculate if these things are true or if there is something else that they are afraid to show the public.

Some of these reports look more like they were taken from a science fiction novel than a description of actual events. One is about a mysterious explosion in a Russian city, and the other is about a mysterious sighting of a flying object near Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan. Both were recorded with direct witnesses.

In the summer of 1996, 15-year-old John Greenewald, fascinated by UFOs, was living at his parent’s house in the San Fernando Valley. Like his father, a former sailor who worked as a welder on space shuttles and Mars rovers, Greenewald became passionate about space and unexplained phenomena.

One day he decided to feed his curiosity by surfing the web, which at the time meant calling America Online and patiently waiting for a connection. He managed to log on to the Computer UFO Network, or CUFON, a site that existed and has existed since 1983, managing to obtain “reliable, verifiable information” about UFO phenomena.

He managed to obtain a United States government document describing the sighting of a mothership—that is, a giant UFO that could release smaller “parasite” UFOs—flying over Iran.
