Rendlesham Theories Abound on Anniversary Special

By , About.com GuideDecember 31, 2010

Follow me on:

Recently, the 30 year anniversary of the Rendlesham Forest Incident was observed in Great Britain with a special radio show. BBC's Mark Murphy was the host of the special, which was presented from the forest.

After the passage of time, a case which was once seemingly cut and dried has turned into a conspirator's dream, with numerous different theories presented to explain what happened in 1980.

Check out the details of some of the theories at Rendlesham Forest UFO Mystery Still Leaves Questions, and be sure to comment as you like.

I’ve heard a very compelling explanation lately due to these sightings being frequent there in the past before the occurence see

The other maybe less plausible one is reflection / refraction through spiders webs of the lighthouse

This is the best case in UFOs perhaps. Roswell maybe better, but it’s close. People want to throw the case away because Halt might have seen a lighthouse on the 2nd night. But I think even that is debatable if you heard his description. You look at what happened the first night and the 2nd night and I think they’d all have to be lying and I don’t think they were. I don’t think a joke could have been pulled off to account for what they saw, no way.

How could Col. Halt and party have seen the Lighthouse light when it’s light is prevented from shinning inland? What’s the Air Force doing flying around with an Apollo capsule 8 years after the Apollo program ended with Apollo 17 in Dec 1972? Seems like skeptics and conspiracy theorists behave like cockroaches coming out of the woodwork- they go every which way with their ideas!

The stupidity of some of the theories being stuffed at us is simply insulting. Does anybody actually believe that the experienced Airmen of Bentwater, especially the Security Police, who are outside and alert twenty four hours a day would not recognize and instantly ID the sound of a hard working military hellicopter hauling a heavy load, exacty like the dozen or so sitting on their own flight line do constantly?

Or that flying a dummy boiler plate mock-up of a space capsue for a recovery exersize is so secret that it would have been acceptable to take it right over the Bentwater Tower and into their air space without the Bentwater Tower knowing all about it or at least spotting it?

Personally, it hurts my feelings if they really think the public is that stupid or they are so lacking in integrity that insulting us with such an amateur and poorly crafted lie and expecting us to buy it is acceptable.

id like to belive in aliens just as much as the next guy here but how could one expect to make people to belive in them when we have to proof. You may say there are many videos with them on it but how can we know when we have so many technilogical ablilitys that allow us to fake suck videos. why would someone do this u say; some people like to get get the anger from people when they make the videos like this, and if they know how to why not its a good way to test their abilitys computer wise too, so they can tell if they did a good job by if we belive it. So why should any “normal” person belive it any way, because it is such work to figure why even care about it. so with that videos are all together discretided. Another thing is that all pictures and all most all vids are all fuzzy and you can barley make out the picture; and the rest of the vids and pictures are fake so thats why pictures are discredited. this is one of my points i have to say i dont think i can come back to responde but ill try. I really wanted to put these ideas in peoples heads try to responde plss. I am 13
