Nuestro infatigable colega y querido amigo Vicente-Juan Ballester Olmos no es detenido ni retrasado por las fiestas tradicionales para prepararnos y enviarnos su material FOTOCAT.
Por lo tanto, con mucho gusto le ofrecemos aquí el enlace respectivo y la recomendación de leer cuidadosamente este material y que cada quien se forme su propia idea.
http://fotocat.blogspot.com/2019_12_18_archive.html
El texto contiene la revisión de algunos casos antiguos, más la posición de Ballester Olmos sobre los EC-III e información sobre algunos libros.
Personalmente creo que es muy interesante el de Xavier Passot, ex Director de GEIPAN.
Por otro lado, me permito discrepar con lo que sostiene el autor alemán Uli Thieme en su libro Roswell, Ein UFO Mythos (Roswell, un Mito OVNI) que cae en el mismo error de que lo que generó el caso fue un globo del Proyecto Mogul. En mi libro "OVNIs: La Agenda Secreta" dediqué un capítulo a tratar a fondo el tema Roswell, --con intensa y extensa lectura previa de múltiples documentos y escritos sobre el asunto-- y allí defenestro técnicamente la explicación que se atribuye al Proyecto Mogul.
En otra nota, quiero enfatizar mi recomendación de leer el blog "The UFO TRAIL" que contiene información relevante realmente importante para nuestro trabajo.

LATEST FOTOCAT AND OTHER NEWS
Our indefatigable colleague and dear friend Vicente-Juan Ballester Olmos is not detained or delayed by the traditional holidays to prepare and send his FOTOCAT material to us.
Therefore is with pleasure that we offer here the respective link and the recommendation to carefully read this material and made up your own mind.
http://fotocat.blogspot.com/2019_12_18_archive.html
The text contains the review of some old cases, plus the position of Ballester Olmos about the EC-III and information about some books.
Personally I think it is very interesting the one of Xavier Passot --former Director of GEIPAN.
On the other hand, I allow myself to disagree with what the German author Uli Thieme argues in his book Roswell, Ein UFO Mythos (Roswell, a UFO Myth) that falls into the same error that what generated the case was a Mogul Project balloon. In my book "UFOs: The Secret Agenda" (OVNIs: La Agenda Secreta) I dedicated a chapter to deal thoroughly with the Roswell issue, - with intense and extensive prior reading of multiple documents and writings on the subject - and there I technically defenestrated the explanation attributed to Project Mogul.
On another note, I want to emphasize my recommendation to read the blog "The UFO TRAIL" which contains relevant information really important to our work.

INFORME ANUAL DEL CENTRO DE IDENTIFICACIÓN AEROESPACIAL DE LA FUERZA AÉREA ARGENTINA
La tarea realizada por el Centro de Identificación Aeroespacial --a cuyo frente está el Com. (R) Rubén Lianza, es un ejemplo a seguir por toda entidad privada u oficial que esté abocada a una tarea similar.
Es la única forma de realizar una tarea científica y valiosa.
El CIAE también presenta otro ejemplo a seguir, y es el de desarrollar una política de archivos abiertos, dando a conocer públicamente el resultado --año a año-- del trabajo realizado, de las conclusiones arribadas. Así debe procederse siempre.
La ocultación, el secretismo, no son compatibles con una tarea científica.
Felicitamos efusivamente al Com. Lianza y su equipo por la tarea realizada, y aquí compartimos el vínculo con la página web que contiene el informe cuya lectura recomendamos:

WHAT MAKES US INVESTIGATE?

For us, specifically, to investigate the allegations that some people make, of having seen some phenomenon in the sky that they found strange and for which they had no explanation.
We could also remain calm or indifferent. After all, if they consider seeing something strange, whether or not it is not our business, it is not something of our business.
But if we acted so inconsiderately, we would cease to be who we are and, above all, we would not be satisfied with ourselves.
We like to find out and know what happened, what it is about, what is said, and that is what begins to happen in an investigation protocol that will include the interrogation of witnesses, the taking of information, the analysis of it,
I consider that the investigative task has to be approached with great humility, with a clear awareness that we do not know or know everything, and that - as often happens in Astronomy - we have to be willing to be surprised and challenged by something that completely dislodges us of conventional explanations.
But it is also true that - using the scientific method - which forces us to apply a systematic doubt to what the witnesses interpret they saw, the experience in this particular field of knowledge indicates that it is possible to achieve an explanation for 99% to 99.5% of reported sightings
The essential problem with witnesses is that they generally faithfully describe what they saw - and that greatly helps researchers - but the interpretation that culture and society give them for what they observed, makes it strange for them to finally not It is such.
I frequently watch a TV show titled “Forensic Files” and I have a case of a serial killer, whose witnesses say he drives a white van, and that the individual is white.
It turned out that the murderer was black and drove a gray car.The police for a while was disoriented in their efforts to find the white van driven by a white individual.
It was other factors, and not the statements of witnesses, that contributed to finding the criminal.
To explain a case you have to go from the simplest to the most complex.We can never affirm with intellectual honesty and security, that what a person saw was an extraterrestrial spacecraft, if we have ruled out alternatives before that, to explain what was observed.
On the contrary, if we apply Ockham's standards, we will surely find a logical, rational and demonstrable explanation, which will be located much earlier than the most extravagant.
Just as we do not take a race to jump on a ladder and stand on the fifth step, the scientific procedure forces us to go up the stairs step by step, and not jump to fantastic conclusions but without factual grip, because finally, this is not valid.
It is, therefore, a complex task that has to take into account the multiple factors that converge on something with a high level of strangeness, which will descend from that level as the investigation is processed.
