Re: [allplanets-hollow] NAZI UFO BasesDick,
I am referring to the Straight-Line Theory which was mentioned in the book The Hollow Earth by Bernard. I don't want to go and look up the quote, but it is probably what you are talking about.
There may be random movement, too, but movement in a straight North and South Line, from high latitudes towards the Pole, has no explainable rationale, and would be explained by a Polar opening ( naerby ).

Dean...
By "Straight-line Theory" do you mean Michel's theory published in the 1960s? (Some UFOs appeared to be going in straight lines from Antarctica toward the North pole?)
To jog my memory, I just queried my wife who spent a lot of time at APRO headquarters here in Tucson decades past. She was a close friend of Coral Lorenzen (now deceased), the co-founder with her husband of APRO (Aerial Phenomena Research Organization) During the 60s in discussions they all agreed that Michel's observances seemed to have some validity. But later years of global observations by others of RANDOMITY seemed to relegate it to just another maybe theory.
Or has MORE surfaced in recent times to add additional credence to the "Straight-line Theory?" We haven't heard of any, but may well have missed it.

P.S. I really have no personal solid belief that the Germans (everybody in the military wasn't a National Socialist Party member) set up bases in Antarctica, but our Tucson friend Col. Wendelle Stevens, seems well convinced. He has probably the world's largest collection of authentic photos of UFOs. And may be the most knowledgeable researcher of UFO phenomena anywhere on the planet. Ask about him.
The government has looked on Col. Stevens as an "enemy" for decades and constantly harassed him (and a lot worse I won't relate). But his private contacts with old military friends, allowed him to collect a huge number of real photos of the many saucer craft the NAZIs designed and built before and during world war 2. They all flew. The German scientists continued improving the various models. And it is possible that SOME of the craft did damage to allied bombers near the end of the war. But they certainly don't explain all the "Foo Fighters" reported. Recently he showed many photos to a group of us and explained one model that had some attachment that appeared to put out electromagnetic pulses or something similar.. It is known that entire flights of allied bombers had their engines affected, some temporarily stopped. (If any crashed it has been hidden). It is possible, but not certain, that these German craft may have been responsible.
Some of the German craft had conventional large size cannons attached, some hanging from below. Apparently they were not used against attacking bombers. Why this technology didn't reverse the course of the war may well be that they couldn't produce enough of them in time... or a lot failed to live up to expectations. Just speculation. But if they actually did have some underground bases in the antarctic or nearby, as Col. Stevens thinks, perhaps some of them were flown there before the Russians and Americans took over the underground factories and captured many of their scientists and technicians. Again, just speculation. Anyone else have information about German bases and the craft mentioned above?
