Meeting Re-Cap:

3/15/25 They Are Here – Jerred Nelson, MUFON Assistant State Director for Minnesota and North Dakota, Northland MUFON Co-Director, Field Investigator, member MUFON Executive Committee of the Experiencer Resource Team.

The meeting was held via Zoom only because of inclement weather in North Dakota and Minnesota, but it was very well attended online!

Listening to Jerred tell of historical accounts from ancient people all the way up to the current time frame, you know that he is very well read.  From thousand year-old accounts of beings in silver white suits and crafts that defy nature, Renaissance paintings of spaceships since the early 100s A.D., to old paintings of Jesus and Mary above a saucer shaped cloud that is “snowing” angel hair? Angel Hair? What’s that? More recent accounts of Angel Hair have been analyzed to be composed of boron, silicon, calcium and magnesium. Jerred also covered crop circles of which there are hundreds around the world that cannot be explained.  If you look into the science behind crop circles you will note that it would be almost impossible to hoax unless you have a portable microwave out in the grain fields. There are scientifically sound ways to determine if the circles are man made vs “real” one and there have been circles found in recent times including in fields in western Minnesota!

Arecibo Message – This was a radio signal sent by the Arecibo Observatory by a group of scientists, including Frank Drake, creator of the Drake equation, and Carl Sagan, among others in hopes of communicating with extraterrestrial life.  The message should arrive at its destination in 25,000 years!  However, the Arecibo Message showed up as a large crop circle in England that supposedly answered the original message that was sent, but this is still up for discussion.

Jerred also reviewed the Drake Equation, which is fascinating! There are potentially 4 trillion to 20 quintillion planets in the observable universe, so there are likely many more planets like ours that can sustain life.

The Fermi Paradox – Enrico Fermi was a SETI physicist who posited in 1950 that there should be plenty of signs that extraterrestrial life has been here for 270 million years, but why don’t we see them?

Book: A Hypnotists Journey to Atlantis by Sarah Breskman Cosme, is a book about what happened eons ago. Sarah, a Level 3 Practitioner of Delores Cannon’s QHHT, has helped many people through hypnosis. Sarah soon discovered that some of her clients, who have no connection to other clients, started telling tales of Atlantis and Lemuria. And these stories corroborate each other! According to Sarah’s clients, after the fall and destruction of Atlantis, the survivors made their way to Ancient Egypt, where they discovered the Sphinx was already there! Come to find out there are many more Sphinx’s around the world that haven’t been discovered yet.

Dogon Tribe – Currently living in Mali, in the middle of the desert on the continent of Africa. At one point in the past the Dogon lived on the Atlantic Coast of modern Nigeria. Stories passed down through generations state they have received knowledge thousands of years ago from Star People called the Nommo. Nommo are amphibious beings who are still celebrated today by the Dogon people. The Ancient Dogon knew things about celestial objects and their respective size and orbits, long before these things were confirmed by modern astronomers.

This is a fascinating presentation, especially for anyone is on the fence about this phenomenon. If you are able to attend any of the expos this year in Brainerd or Bemidji hopefully you can catch Jer’s presentation! Or better yet, join MUFON, sign up to volunteer or become a Field Investigator! We would love to have you.

They Are Here:

Prepare to embark on an exhilarating journey through space and time with Jer as your guide. This presentation takes you to the very edges of human understanding, where science, mystery, and the unknown intersect. It begins with a deep dive into the intriguing concepts of the Drake Equation—the mathematical model that attempts to predict the number of intelligent civilizations in our galaxy—and the Fermi Paradox, which questions why, given the vastness of the universe, we’ve yet to encounter any signs of extraterrestrial life.

But Jer will challenge these well-known scientific ideas and reveal a compelling new perspective: What if these two great minds have it completely wrong? What if the answers we’ve been searching for have been hidden in plain sight all along?

Delve into the fascinating possibility that extraterrestrial visitors have been interacting with Earth far longer than we’ve ever imagined. How long ago did these advanced beings first begin their journeys to our planet, and why? What secrets have they been quietly observing and influencing across centuries?

More importantly, why have we not been able to find conclusive evidence or hear the full stories from those who have had first-hand encounters with the phenomenon? Could it be that the evidence has always been around us, subtly woven into history, or hidden in plain sight within the narratives of those brave enough to speak out?

In this thought-provoking presentation, Jer takes us beyond the conventional boundaries of what we think we know. Buckle up, as we explore the mysteries of the cosmos, uncover hidden truths, and ask the questions that could change everything we thought we knew about life beyond Earth. This journey will leave you questioning, wondering, and perhaps even rethinking the very nature of our existence in the universe.

Jerred Nelson – Bio

Jer’s remarkable journey from a seasoned military aviator and US Army Warrant Officer to a leading figure in the investigation and study of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) underscores a life dedicated to exploring the frontiers of the known and unknown. With a solid foundation in Aviation Sciences and S

pace Studies, Jer’s nearly four-decade-long career in aviation has seamlessly transitioned into a passionate inquiry into phenomenon that challenge our understanding of the world and beyond.

His deep-rooted interest in the mysteries that lie beyond the skies led him to join the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) in 2019, where he quickly ascended to the role of Field Investigator, delving into the investigation and documentation of UFO sightings and encounters. His commitment to understanding and providing support to those who have had direct experiences with unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) saw him join MUFONs Experiencer Resource Team a year later, offering a compassionate and informed touchstone for abductees, or experiencers, navigating the complexities of their experiences.

In his current roles as the Assistant State Director for Minnesota and North Dakota MUFON and Co-Director of Northland MUFON, Jerred occupies a pivotal position in the regional and national network of researchers dedicated to the scientific study and understanding of UAP’s. Furthermore, as a contributing member of the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies (SCU), he is at the forefront of efforts to being a rigorous, evidence-based approach to the study of these phenomena, bridging the gap between anecdote and academia.

Jer’s dedication to the exploration of the unknown, backed by his extensive experience in aviation and military service, positions Northland MUFON as a vital conduit for the investigation and understanding of UFO’s and related phenomena. Through his leadership and expertise, Northland MUFON stands as a testament to the pursuit of knowledge and the importance of approaching the mysteries of the universe with an open mind and critical eye.

Northland MUFON Presents:

Katie Paige

Saturday February 15th!

2:00pm-4:30pm Grand Rapids, MN and Fargo, ND

February 15th Katie Page’s presentation:

Rocky Mountain Ranch

UFO Sightings, Government Cover-Ups…or both? 

Katie will be with us via Zoom. To join the meeting live Click Here.

Meeting Re-Cap

Katie Paige. She is the connection between us laypeople and the heavy hitters in the UFO community. She’s very personable with a calm demeanor, and you might not realize just how ridiculously busy she is and has been for years!

It all started when her mom began dating “Jack” who was a military man. Little Katie was 9, had an older sister and they along with Jack’s 3 boys lived at the Rocky Mountain Ranch, the scene of many frightening childhood experiences. (It has also been called the Clearview Ranch in the past.) Events at Rocky Mountain Ranch began in the 1970s, prior to the events at Skinwalker Ranch. Katie states that she and her family always lived in fear – from hearing banging noises underground, to a creepy electrical voice, source unknown, that spoke to the entire family and warning them of real consequences if they talked about what was happening there! There is also a weird, electrical high pitched humming sound that is heard to this day; source unknown.

Now as an adult, Katie has been on “Beyond Skinwalker Ranch” on the History Channel, highlighting the events that took place at the RMR (Rocky Mtn Ranch). She has been helping the TV crew on site but she says she will never go there at night…it’s too traumatic for her and stirs up more frightening memories each time. She has had many disturbing personal experiences while working on the show however, she is tenacious and wants to know what is happening there.

It was not just RMR where weird, anomalous things took place. There’s the Blind Frog Ranch and the Miller Ranch, the site where Linda Moulton Howe first documented the infamous cattle mutilations. There are other ranches in Elbert county Colorado as well where things occur such as cattle mutilations, strange lights and magnetic anomalies but not everyone is willing to talk about it. Oh, did I mention the heavy military presence in the area? Katie also noted there are unusual water aquifers and quartz deposits beneath all of these sites.

Katie has compiled a lot of information both on her own and from the files and letters of Dr. Leo Sprinkle (1961-2017). Dr. Sprinkle was a psychologist who was very interested in the UFO phenomenon and the paranormal. There are likely ties from RMR to military “black budget” programs and MK-Ultra mind control experiments, which Dr. Sprinkle would have been quite interested in at the time, as are we.
Once again, our presenter stunned us with the quantity and high quality of data to sort through! The data is there – it’s everyones’ hope that we can make the connections that will bring us closer to full disclosure and transparency.

Northland MUFON is very grateful to Katie for her awesome presentation!

Katie Page Bio:

Join Katie as she shares her latest discoveries concerning the Rocky Mountain Ranch and surrounding areas. We will be discussing the possibility of deep CIA coverups, MKUltra LSD mind control programs, sonic and ultrasonic frequency non-lethal military warfare, as well as “talking” laser plasma balls and much more. Are the phenomena experienced UFO/paranormal related or is it all a ruse intended to distract from the nefarious activities conducted there, or both?

The R.M. Ranch was investigated by A.P.R.O., Linda Moulton Howe, and others in the 1970s but the activity continues to this day! It is the location of the biggest remote viewing project ever conducted, (even by the CIA and DIA) recently led by Dr. David Morehouse. Some of the activities experienced on the ranch include hundreds of animal mutilations, menacing copters, military jets scrambled in pursuit of unidentified “craft”, mysterious lights, unusual humming sounds, two types of ETs (in conflict with each other), strange circles on the ground where nothing grows, baffling disappearing boxes, disembodied “electrical” voices, and Sasquatch and other cryptid encounters.

The newspaper headlines dubbed the ranch the “Close Encounter Capital of the US”. R.M.R. has been written about in several books, including Hunt for The Skinwalker by Colm A. Kelleher Ph.D. & George Knapp, Alien ContactTop-Secret UFO Files Revealed by Timothy Good, and many others. It has been featured on History Channels Beyond Skinwalker, George Norry’s Beyond Belief, UFO Witness, Small Town Monsters, and others.

Saturday January 18th!

January 18th Clas Svahn’s presentation:

“Swedish UFO’s, The Knowns and Unknowns”

Meeting Re-Cap

Jer led the January 25 meeting of Northland MUFON, discussing various announcements, presentations, and QA sessions. The meeting featured a presentation by Clas Svahn, with a spotlight on cases from North Dakota and Minnesota. Upcoming speakers include Eric Lukes and Robert Salas. Northland also highlighted the chapter’s financial needs and encouraged donations. A special thank you was given to Paul D. for his donation to the Symposium Fund and to Michele R and Bob S for their generous donations along with thanks to the board members, field investigators, and graphic designer. The conversation ended with Clas Svahn’s presentation, who is the chairman of the National Research organization, UFO Sweden, and head of the largest archive in the world for the unexplained, AFU.se

 

UFO Sweden’s Activities and Publications

Clas presented on the activities and publications of UFO Sweden, a UFO research organization. He highlighted their collaboration with UFO Norway, their website, and their involvement with a Swedish TV company. Clas also discussed their extensive field investigation training courses and their strong relationships with the Swedish military. He mentioned that UFO Sweden encompasses not only UFOs but also paranormal experiences and unusual natural phenomena. Clas also discussed the organization’s archive, which includes a wide range of materials from skeptics to believers. He concluded by expressing his goal to consolidate all of AFU’s activities under one roof.

 

Unique Archive Items and UFO Case

Clas, a librarian and head of day-to-day activities at an archive, discussed the organization’s mission to save and make archives available to researchers. He highlighted the unique items in their collection, including UFO reports from Britain, Russia, Denmark, Norway, and Finland, and blue book microfilms from the US Air Force. Clas also shared some of the organization’s work, such as the arial school site incident in 1994 and the Father Gill report from Papua, New Guinea in 1959. He then presented a case study of a UFO sighting in Sweden, where a witness reported seeing a strange vehicle. Through investigation, they found that a German company was cycling through the area at the time of the sighting in a very strange but very human vehicle designed to reduce aerodynamic drag for competitive bicycling. The witness, however, still did not believe their findings.

 

UFO Sightings and Investigation Challenges

Clas discussed two UFO sightings. The first was by Stefan Johansson on October 28, 2012, who described a black triangle with pulsating blue lights. Clas investigated the sighting, finding discrepancies between Stefan’s memory and the actual events. The second sighting was by Junilla Lindholm and her friend in 1980, who saw a flattened egg-shaped object with short wings and a small cockpit. Clas also mentioned a Swedish fighter pilot’s experience in 1977, which was later shared in a video. Clas emphasized the importance of thorough investigations to determine the truth behind such sightings.

 

Unidentified Objects in Swedish Skies

Clas discussed two UFO sightings in Sweden. The first occurred in 1977 when a fighter pilot named Daniel Mushon saw an unidentified object hovering and then flying upwards, outpacing his aircraft. The second sighting took place in 1946 during the “Ghost Rocket” wave, when a Swedish fighter pilot named Sven Hjalmarsson observed a thin, wingless object flying towards a storm cloud. Both sightings remain unexplained. Clas also mentioned a current investigation involving a silver ball-like object seen near a military training area in 2023.

 

UFO Sightings in Swedish History

In the meeting, Northland and Clas discussed the history of UFO sightings in Sweden, particularly focusing on the “Ghost Rocket” wave in 1946 and the more recent sightings. Clas explained that prior to the 1947 Kenneth Arnold era, UFO sightings were cataloged as folklore and meetings with entities, not as alien visitations. The military sent research parties and divers to investigate the alleged crashes, but no physical evidence was found. Clas also mentioned a 1980 observation of a “Ghost Rocket” and a planned expedition to investigate a radar return in Lake Vamfjarden. Northland expressed interest in the findings of this expedition. The conversation also touched on the cultural aspect of UFO sightings in Sweden, with Clas noting that people are now more open to sharing their experiences, thanks in part to documentaries and public talks.

 

Drone Sightings and UFO Research

Northland and Clas discussed the recent increase of drone sightings in the US and Sweden. Clas shared that while there was an uptick in drone sightings in Sweden, most of these were not actually drones but other objects such as planets. Northland expressed interest in the topic and mentioned the recent Congressional hearings on UFOs and UAPs. Clas also mentioned his involvement in a meeting with UFO researchers and the head of the French official UFO research unit.

 

Upcoming Chapter Activities and Training

Northland discussed the upcoming chapter activities, including the need for a presenter coordinator, field investigators, assistant presenters, AV help, and an event coordinator for community outreach. Northland also mentioned the upcoming Photo analysis training course in February in Colorado, Upcoming Field Investigator Boot Camp in Arizona in November, and the annual MUFON symposium in Cincinnati. The extraterrestrial joke of the month was brought to the group by the Itasca County Bigfoot Research Center. Northland encouraged anyone interested in these roles or the training course to contact them for more information.

 

Northland’s Spotlight Cases and Sightings

Northland discussed the spotlight cases from North Dakota and Minnesota. The North Dakota case, investigated by Dale, involved a sighting of unusual creatures near Tappan in 2006, which was reported to MUFON in 2012. The Minnesota case, investigated by Jer, involved a sighting of a metallic sphere near McGregor in 2021. The North Dakota case was closed as insufficient evidence, and the Minnesota case was closed as Unknown UAV. Jer also shared his personal experience of witnessing a similar object in the late 1980s. The conversation ended with a discussion on recent sightings in the Northland region, with Steve and Jer investigating two cases in Minnesota. The next meeting was scheduled for February 15th, 2025, with Katie Page presenting on the “Rocky Mountain Ranch High Strangeness”.

Watch the full meeting from the meeting archives.
