"As part of Robert Hastings upcoming documentary, "UFOs and Nukes: The Secret Link Revealed," and a corresponding article he wrote: UFO incursions at U.S. atomic/thermonuclear weapons sites, from the 1940s onward, are detailed in thousands of declassified Army, Air Force, Navy, FBI, and CIA documents. Moreover, hundreds of U.S. military veterans have now discussed their involvement in one or more of those incidents in video interviews. One of them, former U.S. Navy Lieutenant Junior Grade Clarence R. "Bud" Clem, says that a UFO monitored one of our fissile materials facilities—the Hanford plutonium-production plant in Washington State—on three different nights in January 1945, some seven months before Hiroshima and Nagasaki were bombed…."

The problem of course is that there was no Hanford plutonium processing plant in 1945. |

jowady, there was a Hanford plant starting in 1943 as part of the US Manhattan project, per Wiki: link |

The background shown in the picture for the article is of the N Reactor site which was one of several plutonium producing reactors built along the Columbia River during the Manhattan Project. The actual plutonium recovery facility was located more inland. If you go to Google Maps and search for "Hanford Site," it'll bring up the approximate location of the Canyon facility used for the plutonium recovery. And if you go to the Google Earth view and scroll west and slightly NW, you find an old antiaircraft site, possibly a Nike site. This UFO may have been one of the fire balloons that Japan was releasing to travel into the Northwest to cause forest fires. There's no info on how high the UFO was judged to be or how fast it was estimated to be traveling. Spent two summers working on the Hanford site in 1973 & 74. Got a good tour of the site by a fellow who had worked there during and after the Manhattan Project. Lots of interesting stories from him, especially about the quality (or lack thereof) of the workers hired for the construction jobs. |
