ZelleHOST
[laughs] Um, like Brayden mentioned, the...
ZelleHOST
When Hunrath kinda came into the town of, you know, Mount Palomar around there with George Adamski, and, you know, George Williamson, and, uh, what was the guy's name? The guy who built the Integra- Integratron.
BraydenHOST
Integratron.
ZelleHOST
Um, they were all running in the same circles, and, and Hunrath is going around trying to talk up his, you know, anti-saucer magnetic device.
Eric BlehmGUEST
Steve Cathey's did not have a rope, but it had the bungee cords.
Eric BlehmGUEST
And I did my first snowboarding on Palomar Mountain, which is, you know, in here-
Kevin KentHOST

Ross CoulthartHOST
In 2025, he was elected a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
Ross CoulthartHOST
Now, Beatrice and Steven have also formed an unusual collaboration examining thousands of mysterious star-like flashes, transients, recorded on photographic plates from the first Palomar Observatory Sky Survey during the 1950s.
Ross CoulthartHOST
And here's what makes those observations so interesting.
Ross CoulthartHOST
Many were photographed before Sputnik 1 was launched in October 1957, when, according to the conventional historical accounts, there should be no artificial satellites orbiting the Earth.
Ross CoulthartHOST
And that raises a fascinating new question.
Ross CoulthartHOST
If these objects, these transients, were really orbiting the Earth, what was lying directly beneath them on the surface? And this is where things get very interesting.
Ross CoulthartHOST
Dr. Villarroel, Dr. Brule, and their colleagues have now published a new archive paper entitled Earth Projected Clustering of Historical Optical Transients in the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey.
Ross CoulthartHOST
And out of 107-plus candidates and using machine learning to select those most likely to represent genuine objects rather than photographic defects, they've projected those observations back onto the surface of the Earth and asked whether they were distributed randomly or whether they clustered over specific geographical locations.
Chris EversGUEST
I, I mean, take George Adamski, for example.
Chris EversGUEST
You know, back in the 1940s, 1950, well, he, George Adamski claimed that he had his first- Sighting of a UFO from Mount Palomar, I believe it was in 1946, a good eight or nine months before Kenneth Arnold, and of course, the Roswell incident.
Chris EversGUEST
You know, it, it, it, it was like he wanted to be first, but of course he didn't name all that or mention all that until well after the actual Roswell incident and Kenneth Arnold's experience.
Chris EversGUEST
You know, so there were a lot of people who do want to get, jump on the bandwagon, and as Andy Warhol said, you know, they want the, they want the 15 minutes of fame or the 10 minutes of fame, you know? I, I, I tend to be a little bit suspicious.
