“It is really strange because the object itself is ghostly white against the rest of the darker digital gain camera image.”
- Bob Coine, Heartland Studios, Oregon, Illinois
Oregon, Illinois, is southwest of Rockford, not far from both the Wisconsin and Iowa borders.
April 7, 2008 Oregon, Illinois - Bob Coine is President and Owner of Heartland Studios, Inc., in Oregon, Illinois.

“It didn’t move like a helicopter at all and there was no sound. A helicopter has a really distinctive look and they don’t have that big point coming off the front. And it didn’t have wings. It wasn’t like any kind of shaped object that I’ve ever seen.”
April 4, 2008 Scotts Valley, California - A video has been circulating on the internet for months as “Kaptive” - a CGI rock video manipulation of the dragonfly aerial drone photographs that first emerged in May to June 2007. Not only is it a manipulation of the photographs, the CGI operator named Kris Avery took my Earthfiles podcast news reports about the dragonfly drone phenomenon and edited in my voice and voices of people I’ve interviewed without asking permission.

“One (2008) scene in particular involved a spherical craft being escorted,
and ultimately fought off by, two military helicopters. ...The USAF first asked the scene be changed and the sphere eliminated. If the scene wasn't changed and the spherical craft eliminated, the USAF would withdraw their support. Basically, that's the same thing we went through on Independence Day, too, when Area 51 was referenced in that script.”

March 31, 2008 Albuquerque, New Mexico - During my 3-hour Coast to Coast AM with George Noory news updates on Thursday, March 27, 2008, I shared a March 20, 2008, deer mutilation in Longs, South Carolina, not far from North Myrtle Beach. A few nights before the mutilated deer was found by a retired broadcast engineer, he also saw a glowing, white sphere about 6 feet in diameter moving in the night sky between two military helicopters. [ See 032808 Earthfiles Real X-File.] On the air, I asked listeners to email me who might have had their own glowing sphere encounters or have current knowledge about American military interaction with glowing spheres. I have received dozens of emails and share a few in this Earthfiles report for consideration and other comment.

“The Wilkins breakout won't have any effect on sea-level because that ice is floating already, but it is another indication of the impact that climate change is having on the region. We believe the Wilkins has been in place for at least a few hundred years. But warm air and exposure to ocean waves are causing a break-up.”
- Ted Scambos, Ph.D., Glaciologist, University of Colorado
Above and below satellite images of the Wilkins Ice Shelf in the West Antarctic Peninsula where a huge 160-square-mile-chunk of ice disintegrated between February 28 and March 8, 2008. The ice section that broke away measured 25-miles-long (41 kilometers) by 1.5-miles-wide (2.5 kilometers). All that's holding back the rest of the Wilkins Ice Shelf is a narrow band of ice, which might also give way in the near future. Image courtesy NSIDC.

March 27, 2008 Boulder, Colorado - In West Antarctica on March 8, 2008, at the Wilkins Ice Shelf which floats on the Pacific Ocean not far from the southern tip of South America, a slab of ice as large as Northern Ireland broke off. The 160-square-mile ice chunk had been there for perhaps 1,500 years. But between February 28 and March 8, 2008, NASA’s Earth Observing System Aqua and Terra satellites photographed the Wilkins’ disintegration.

March 21, 2008 Albuquerque, New Mexico - It’s ironic that in March 2008, a TV network such as FOX in New York City and the cable distributor, History Channel, would finally do reports about the strange, aerial, dragonfly-shaped craft that first showed up in 2007 photographs – a whole year after events without doing any substantive research. Their sarcastic reports have left viewers with the false impression that the photos were all from California and most likely CGI/Photoshop creations. Neither conclusion is true.
Why did FOX have a segment about the dragonfly drones? Because the Los Angeles Times on March 18, 2008, headlined: “A UFO Cold Case” with a photograph of two private investigators named Frankie Dixon and T. K. Davis. The two were hired by a European group to track down one of last year’s eyewitnesses who photographed a dragonfly machine over a power line in Capitola, California, on May 16, 2007.
March 21, 2008 Albuquerque, New Mexico - After the Big Basin craft, no other photographs of the mysterious dragonfly-shaped drones emerged in 2007. But on Tuesday, June 26, 2007, the mystery of the dragonfly-shaped aerial drones took another turn with the release of an alleged secret report containing photographs of alleged extraterrestrial technologies, entitled “Commercial Applications Research for Extraterrestrial Technology” – known with the acronym CARET, which contained a “Q4-86 Research Report,” dated December 1986, Palo Alto, California, by the Palo Alto CARET Laboratory, also known as PACL (pronounced “packel”). See: Isaac Release and 062607Earthfiles Parts 1 and 2.
Cover of CARET Q4-86 Research Report, December 1986, Palo Alto, California, and PACL Staff, Palo Alto CARET Laboratory. Document provided by "Isaac" electronically on June 26, 2007.

“The strange thing got closer and closer and had all kinds of arms and legs on it and spirally things (top wires going up into the air) and lights all over it. And it had writing on it that looked like a foreign language.”
– Hartshorne, Oklahoma, Drone Eyewitness, June 2003
March 7, 2008 Hartshorne, Oklahoma, and Van Buren, Arkansas - A year ago on May 11, 2007, Coast to Coast AM webmaster, Lex, received an email letter with several images attached of an odd, dragonfly-shaped, aerial object from a Central California resident who called himself “Chad.” The images were dated May 6, 2007. In addition to the dragonfly-shaped body that had appendages sticking out from a large ring, there was another odd feature. Rising from the ring straight up into the air were slightly curved, thin wires that formed a tall, circular crown above the dragonfly body. Chad was worried about his family's safety and health after he saw the bizarre aerial object at least eight times from his house and on hikes near his home. Neighbors, he said, had also seen the unidentified aerial object.

February 29, 2008 Albany, New York - Thousands of bats are sick, or dead, in at least 20 northeastern U. S. caves. So far, not a single laboratory examining tissues has come up with the cause of death. The physical anomalies in some, but not all, of the dead or dying bats are white rings of fungus around their noses and lung tissue inflammation, similar to pneumonia.

February 26, 2008 Albuquerque, New Mexico - I have received hundreds of emails the past few days from Earthfiles viewers and Earthfiles podcast listeners, as well as COAST and Dreamland listeners, about the aerial lights and symbols in Stephenville and Dublin, Texas, as well as the unidentified white, glowing “plasma” sphere phenomenon at the Brownwood, Texas, deer feeder. Below are some of the images and correspondence. I welcome viewer and listener comments to: [email protected].
