PRESS RELEASE: CIVIL SOCIETY INITIATIVE TO IMPLEMENT 1978 UN GENERAL ASSEMBLY DECISION ON EXTRATERRESTRIAL LIFE & UFOs



NATIONAL PRESS CLUB

[ Washington DC – April 21, 2008] Four non-governmental organizations have launched a joint initiative to urge the implementation of a historic UN General Assembly Decision concerning extraterrestrial life and UFOs, adopted on December 18, 1978. This year marks the 30th anniversary of UN General Assembly Decision 33/426 that invited: "Member States to take appropriate steps to coordinate on a national level scientific research and investigation into extraterrestrial life, including unidentified flying objects." The Decision further invited Member States to "inform the Secretary-General of the observations, research and evaluation of such activities." Text of UN Decision is attached.

The four NGOs have sent letters to the governments of France, the United Kingdom, Mexico and Brazil requesting each to forward to the UN Secretary General details of documents concerning UFOs each country has publicly released in the last several years.
.
A letter will be been sent to UN Secretary General Ban reminding him of the upcoming 30th anniversary of General Assembly Decision 33/426 and requesting a meeting to discuss its implementation; and informing him of recent observations, research and evaluation concerning extraterrestrial life and UFOs.

The main goal of the joint NGO initiative is to have the UN Secretary General take steps to implement General Assembly Decision 33/426.

Our Politicians can not tell you the Truth

It will reveal that the nuclear arsenals of the planet have our name on them.

Somebody up there must love us.  

That is the only reason we continue to exist.
