Coast to Coast AM: Aurora UFO Crash with Jim Marrs

Coast to Coast AM: Aurora UFO Crash/ Quantum Science & Spirit
Date: Monday – March 28, 2016
Host: George Noory
Guests: Jim Marrs, Mark Anthony

In the first half, author and journalist Jim Marrs discussed the Aurora, Texas UFO crash of 1897, which he considers to be the “smoking gun” of the UFO issue. It’s early date belies the explanation that it could have been a misidentified aircraft, as it was six years before the Wright Brothers first flew their planes, he noted. The date fits into the context of the ‘Great Airship Mystery’ of 1896-7, in which a large cigar-shaped object was seen in the skies of numerous American states. The Dallas Morning News reported that the airship hit a windmill on a judge’s property and crashed, and that the pilot who died was “not of this world.”

The alleged being was buried in the Aurora cemetery (a replica of the headstone is pictured here) but later efforts to exhume the body were rebuffed. He said he investigated the grave, and it appears that government agents may have pulled something, possibly metallic pieces, from the site. Marrs also cautioned that pharmaceutical companies may be moving in on the medical marijuana market. He weighed in on the current US presidential cycle and expressed concern that Trump may end up running as a third party candidate if he’s knocked out in a brokered convention, and this will likely give the victory to Clinton.
