A Forgotten UAP Event and Its Ramifications for the Science of the Phenomenon, with Jacques Vallée
Pioneer and unsurpassed theoretician of UAP research and data analysis, information scientist and writer Dr. Jacques Vallée, joined the Sol Foundation symposium in October 2025 in Pioneer and unsurpassed theoretician of UAP research and data analysis, information scientist and writer Dr. Jacques Vallée, joined the Sol Foundation symposium in October 2025 in Italy, and gave this deep and thorough talk on a UAP event witnessed in 1966 in Haynesville, Louisiana by a nuclear engineer, who subsequently reported it to the Air Force. The Condon Committee, the notorious Air Force panel that conducted a multiyear study of UAP in the late 1960s—one likely initiated by the service to undermine serious inquiry into the phenomena—sent investigators to gather data on the Haynesville event, and then published their findings in the committee’s final report. Dr. Vallée presents the case itself, the Condon investigators’ analyses, and his own follow up inquiries in order to model how methodical scientific research should be done, and to share some of the remarkable facts about the case, including the nuclear scientist’s estimate of the UAP’s tremendous energy requirements. After more than almost sixty years of investigation, writing, and publishing on UAP, Dr. Vallée shows in this talk that he continues to be a leading light in study of the After more than almost sixty years of investigation, writing, and publishing on UAP, Dr. Vallée shows in this talk that he continues to be a leading light in the study of the phenomena.
