Right, a question to you all, do you recognize or know the word “TRONDANT” and know its secret meaning?
I will be honest with you, I don’t know who “them” are, but I do know the secret of TRONDANT. It was the “non word” used back in the 1992 Roper Survey sent to 100,000 psychiatrists to give to patients who’d had “unusual personal experiences” i.e., “abducted by aliens.” Survey takers who said they knew the secret meaning of the made-up word were immediately eliminated from the study.
Its OK guys, you won’t be removed from this post for knowing what Trondant means. We know it’s not your fault; it’s not even their fault; it’s more likely his fault, Robert Bigelow, the camera shy billionaire behind BAASS, (Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies). He’s the man that funded and created the Roper study and has been attempting to corner the UFO market ever since.
Bigelow’s most recent conquest is outlined in this December FAA press release naming BAASS as sole repository of UFO sighting info:
“Persons wanting to report UFO/unexplained phenomena activity should contact a UFO/ unexplained phenomena reporting data collection center, such as Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies (BAASS) (voice: 1-877-979-7444 or e-mail: Reporting@baass.org )”
But guess what guys, there’s more! With Bigelow, there’s always more to the story. In fact, this is the second time the FAA has passed the UFO hotline to a Bigelow funded institution. In 2001, the FAA directed UFO sightings to Bigelow’s now defunct National Institute of Discovery Science (NIDS):
“NIDS Becomes Only Official Organization to Receive UFO Reports from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) NIDS is pleased to announce that the newly printed Federation Aviation Administration (FAA) manuals indicate the National Institute for Discovery Science (NIDS) as the sole contact point in the United States to which the FAA reports UFOs.”
And just like now, in 2001 controversy likewise ensued:
Richard Boylan, PhD drboylan@jps.net 6-25-1 commented:
“The fact that NIDS gets a foot in the door with FAA under the Bush-Cheney Administration is prima-facie evidence that Dubya is a patsy, whether “witting” or unwitting, of Cabal assets.Bush has taken Republican “privatization” initiatives to new heights (or depths) by trying to “privatize” the UFO/ET contact phenomenon! Of course, he is only doing in a more public fashion what the Cabal has been doing for five decades — treating UFO/ET information, captured ET vehicles and individuals, and technology as private corporate property (sic). It looks like George W. will take us from the UFO Cover-Up to UFO-Privatization without ever going through the step of UFO Public Disclosure. Thus goes participatory democracy under President Bush II.”
It was also deja vu all over again when earlier this year Bigelow invested in MUFON, which he also did back in 1994. This time around he’s funding the development of a UFO rapid response STAR Team, which is slightly different than the pilot program he funded back in ’94:
“Robert Bigelow suggested working with a coalition of U.S. UFO organizations comprised of MUFON, the Center for UFO Studies (CUFOS) and the Fund for UFO Research (FUFOR). By 1995, the groups involved had formed the UFO Research Coalition (URC), and they have continued working together on a number of very successful projects including the Ambient Monitoring Project aimed at measuring environmental changes during on-going abduction experiences.”
They may still be working together (although FUFOR’s hasn’t been updated since 2006), but if so, they’re doing it on their own dime. In 1995 Saucer Smear reported that Bigelow had packed up his greenbacks and gone home:
“Las Vegas businessman Robert Bigelow has terminated his financial help to the three major UFO organizations – MUFON, CUFOS, and FUFOR – due to ‘irreconcilable differences’. We are told that Bigelow wanted more control over how his money would be spent. We also hear that one leading ufologist went so far out of control at the final meeting with Bigelow that he had to be gently escorted from the conference room….Bigelow’s flirtation with the Offbeat is not over, however, as he is still apparently funding cattle mutilation investigation by Linda Howe…”
Yes, Bigelow has had quite a flirtation with the Offbeat, but it’s a romance that never seems to make it to the altar.
• In 1993, he started a radio program on the paranormal called Area 2000 with a Art Bell, George Knapp and Linda Moulton Howe, but cut off funding after the first year because he didn’t think they’d be able to continue attracting quality guests. Art Bell disagreed and Coast to Coast AM was born of the ashes of Area 2000.
• In 1995 he created the NIDS. Here’s what RedPill has to say about it:
“He created the National Institute of Discovery Science (NIDS) in 1995 to investigate border phenomena, stocking the advisory board with some of the leading lights in the field such as Jacques Vallee, Hal Puthoff, Melvin Morse and Edgar Mitchell. Employees of the organization were generally PhD scientists, as well as some former FBI field investigators and law-enforcement professionals. The NIDS website provides news and investigations into such wide-ranging topics as ‘Black Triangle’ sightings, cattle mutilations, consciousness studies and crop circles.”
• In 1996, he purchased the notorious Skinwalker Ranch, which is said to be riddled with UFOs, cryptozoological fauna, and hyper-dimensional portals to other realities. It was the the subject of countless articles and books at the start, but now it is strictly off limits results of any research has not been made public and it’s uncertain if Bigelow still owns the property.
• In 2004, NIDS was put into ‘in-active’ status in 2004 due to a lack of worthwhile cases to investigate.
Of course that was then and this is now. Sure, he’s got his space hotel project to fool around with, but you can’t expect a man like Bigelow to wait for ET to call reservations. And so, as Gizmondo reports, BAASS was born and they are hiring astrophysics, biochemists, microbiologists, nanotechnolgists, physicists, and propulsion and stealth technology experts.
“Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies (BAASS), a sister company to Bigelow Aerospace, is a newly formed research organisation that focuses on the identification, evaluation, and acquisition of novel and emerging future technologies worldwide as they specifically relate to spacecraft. BAASS is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada. We are seeking experienced scientists to join our research teams. If you are an inquisitive outside of the circle thinker, who is detail oriented and who is looking for a challenge, this is a unique and exciting opportunity to advance your career and to be a part of cutting edge research.”
So what the hell is up with this Bigelow guy, that he starts things then gives up seemingly out of boredom or dismay, only to pick up right where he left off a year or two later? He doesn’t quit his actual business, not the Budget Motel chain, nor his Aerospace activities. He only disses his spooky interests. Why? Could it be ADHD or some kind of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder ? And what happens to all the data he amasses?? Where do the UFO sighting reports go?(usually fed by MUFON) Where did all the research from NIDS disappear to once the website was dismantled? If the scientists at BAASS discover the flux capacitor or anti-gravity propulsion, will the rest of the world ever find out? And how long will the Tang cocktails and reconstituted Eggs Benedict have to last beyond the day Bigelow decides space hotels are lame and cancels the return shuttle launch to pick up his orbiting hotel guests?
Of course, maybe he isn’t a flake at all. Maybe he acts the dilettante only to distract us from the massive knowledge base he’s creating on people, ideas, technology in order to…find the ET Beings…discover the unknown…inform the government….Paid by the Government to discover the Truth…perhaps even defeat death? Who knows? Only Robert Bigelow. In fact I would go as far as to say that Bigelow must be in the Top 2o of the most intriguing/mysterious characters in the world at the moment!
U.I.P Summary
Perhaps Robert Bigelow is just like you and I, but the difference is that he is a ‘Super Rich’ Believer who can afford to take his interest in Aliens and UFO’s to a completely different level! Do you blame him if this is the case, as he could end up being the man who discovers the truth about our Alien Visitors…
The problem we here at U.I.P have with this Bigelow character is that he appears to have zero care or respect for people who have seen a life changing UFO event in the sky, because he pays one of the worlds largest UFO ‘research'(?) teams MUFON to share all of their reported sightings to them. So if you are the one of many who have seen some kind of incredible sighting in the sky and reported it to MUFON but had no reply, then the chances are MUFON have just sent your details to Mr Bigelow!?
I have been researching UFO’s and Aliens for quite a while now, and one of the things I have always picked up on, is the sheer amount of interest from airline companies in this area. Of course people who are involved in long distance air travel are going to be keen to learn more about how the ET Beings travel between the stars….think of all that money and fame those that find out the truth about how the ET beings travel are suddenly going to come in to if they discover the technology to travel the Universe!
In fact whoever discovers the secret and technology to take man beyond the stars, will suddenly become the most powerful company in the world….and doesn’t Mr Bigelow know it! MUFON you just carry on being Bigelows lapdog!
