The following letter was prepared in the late 1990's by the public affairs staff at the White Sands Missile Range for a weekly column in the Las Cruces Sun-News and the Alamogordo Daily News. This is a humorous explanation for the UFO phenomenon...but surprising that a government / military agency even referenced the UFO / alien topic:
Staffers at the White Sands public affairs office know the truth of what happened at Roswell 50 years ago but few people listen.
Every year the office receives unsolicited letters from people all over the world. They claim to know such things as where gold is hidden on the missile range, what the aliens are really up to and who is running the government conspiracy of the day.
One such letter arrived in early 1991 from Memphis, Tenn. which blew the lid off the typical UFO theories.
The author says that when the earth was formed it ended up being hollow. He says the crust we operate on is only 800 miles thick and the rest of the globe is mostly empty space. Floating in the center of this cavity is a miniature sun.
He goes on to explain that the center of the earth is inhabited and is complete with oceans of water and landmasses.
At the earth's poles are huge openings into this inner world. He says they are more than 1,000 miles in diameter and there is a constant exchange of air between the outer and inner worlds.
He says ordinary people are not aware of these huge openings because they are usually covered with clouds and the governments of the world have conspired to hide the information.
Like most conspiracy theorists, this author says the governments are worried that if people know about this other world everyone will run jabbering into the streets and civilization will crumble.
The writer proposes that the northern lights we see are not caused by solar energy interacting with the upper atmosphere but is light escaping from the center of the earth through the polar openings.
Eventually the author gets around to explaining how all this relates to Roswell. He says that when the surface inhabitants starting exploding atomic weapons on July 16, 1945, the inner inhabitants got concerned. With more testing in the years following the end of World War II they grew worried about radioactive fallout suspended in the air which was ventilating the center of the earth.
So they started flying through the openings at the poles to investigate what was going on here. This explains the supposed appearance of UFOs following the war. Apparently one of these vehicles crashed near Roswell killing the flight crew and leaving proof that these "molemen" really exist.
So, as they say, now you know the rest of the story.
NOTE: The letter was found among a dossier of declassified FBI documents...so I have no idea if the letter was ever published. Lon
