Two Superlative Schools of UFO Thought: Westall '66, Ariel '94
Dr. McDonald and Dr. Mack Braved the Unknown for Truth
Dr. James E. McDonald, PhD, and Dr. John E. Mack, MD, devoted their expertise, specialized skills and unique talents to their fields, communities, and country.
Dr. McDonald was an atmospheric physicist and educator on the faculty of the University of Arizona. Dr. Mack was a psychiatrist and educator on the faculty of the Harvard University School of Medicine. Both were tops in their fields and zealous in their service to humanity.
Furthermore, Dr. McDonald and Dr. Mack brought their professional talents to bear on UFO phenomena. In their work on UFOs, the two scientists examined two of the most significant, high strangeness-close encounter cases on record. These incidents occurred at two schools on two continents, almost three decades apart — events witnessed by hundreds of children and educators.
Dr. McDonald travelled to Australia to investigate the Westall School Incident that occurred in a suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, April 6, 1966. He spoke with hundreds of people, including children who witnessed UFO phenomena, from sightings of unusual aerial phenomena, encounters with unknown being(s), to later receiving extra-sensory communication.
Dr. Mack travelled to Zimbabwe to investigate the Ariel School Incident that occurred in Ruwa, east of Harare, Zimbabwe, September 16, 1994. He spoke with hundreds of people, including children who witnessed UFO phenomena, from sightings of unusual aerial phenomena, encounters with unknown being(s), to later receiving extra-sensory communication.
A History of UFOs at School
UFO researcher Preston E. Dennett chronicled more than 100 incidents where UFOs visited schools around the world. He wonders why the UFO phenomenon shows so much interest in children. Read more: “Schoolyard UFO Encounters” at Amazon.com.
For their parts doing good deeds to advance understanding of the UFO phenomena, benefit humanity through their professions and service to their country, Dr. McDonald and Dr. Mack received “The Treatment” from skeptics, professional colleagues and the general public. The harassment included slander, libel, private and public attacks, and most every weapon in the propagandist’s toolkit for destroying a professional reputation.
History now shows how wrong their critics were. The contributions of Dr. McDonald and Dr. Mack, continued by Mr. Dennet and others around the world today, help us better understand a phenomenon that others fear to even consider, let alone face.
