Thanks for the link, it's a very interesting case that deserves lots of attention.
Someone tried to debunk it but I don't buy that:


She claimed she was there and saw the whole thing. They strung fishing line across the reservoir, taped some cellophane to a straw and simply passed the unit back and forth across the lake. It would light up whenever a car's headlights hit it (there is a winding road that goes completely around the reservoir). When the authorities started to show up, they just cut the line and it all fell invisibly into the water.

Interesting to look at Bragalia's pic, which I've now embedded above, in the light of the testimony of Wanaque Reservoir Police Chief John Cassazza to journalist and amateur astronomer LLoyd Mallan about what Cassazza saw on the night of January 11, 1966 :




"And the strangest part of
it was that there was no noise attached to this object. None whatsoever. It was absolutely
silent. A silent light." "What color was this light?" I wanted to know. "It was a bright white
light. As I said: just like on a locomotive. It was funnel-shaped. It seemed to come out of
some object, like a funnel. In other words, it spread out as if it were focused through a
telescope. It was narrow at one end in the sky and spread out into a very wide beam as it
approached our upper gate house at the dam."
"In other words," I said, "this wasn't just a flat light? It had a shape."
He nodded. "Just like a funnel." "Sort of like an upside down funnel?" I asked. He nodded
again, this time with vigor. "That's just exactly what it looked like."


The Wanaque photo deserves a very through analysis. In the light of Ellen Crystall's remarkable photos published in her Silent Invasion, and Professor Meessen's analysis of her photos and the Belgian Petit Rechain colour slide (so far only in French, unfortunately), I think we should seriously consider the possibility that the Wanaque photo captured UV emissions from the putative UAP, and the possible plasma surrounding it.

The anonymity of the photo is quite understandable, given reports that eyewitnesses and photographers were threatened by Men in Black. The stakes could not have been higher at the time. The US Air Force was intent on closing down Blue Book, and a mass sighting, with photos and testimony by a Police Chief and a Mayor, could have made this impossible.

My dear fellow atsers ain't gonna like it, but once again it looks like it's a typical bell shaped object, also known as a Haunebu



BTW, could it be that the ice posed a threat for the dam and the UFO saved the dam by puncturing it to relief the pressure?

Adamski is a a fraud and everything from his ramblings are fraudulent.
His pictures of ufo's don't even look remotely real.

Maybe you should give that thread a second look, most of them aren't from Adamski.
And these are just a few of them.

Actually I do partly agree with you. The whole, cops are idiots and liars in some situations but when it comes to UFO's they are deemed credible.

The reason I like it when cops or people from the government come forth is the amount of information they give to the case and the detail. That's why I think they're more credible......in some cases.

Hundreds of spectators at Ringwood and Wanaque sites surrounding the Wanaque
Reservoir watched what was described as a glowing egg-shaped object moving
from place to placeand a times shooting down beams of light.Reservoir guards vividly
recalllater going out on the ice and finding thawed placeswhere the object had
been seen hovering. Mayor Wolfe, some Councilmen, Dam guards and some of the
young teen-age children of the Councilmen were up there on top.
They declared: “Up on the Dam when this object came over and was over the ice, and
put out a flash of light (light beam), and put holes in the ice, he beams of light seemed
to put holes in the ice”



Freespirit, great post mate below is some more info about the sightings from Dr Michael Swords:


WANAQUE 1966, part one: microcosm of UFOlogy



When you dive into Wanaque, you find that you're not dealing with one "UFO" case but many. For purposes of sanity, it's convenient [though mildly inaccurate] to consider the Wanaque cases to be mainly composed of two clusters of incidents in 1966, one in mid-January and the other almost exactly nine months later in October. In this first swipe at the phenomenon, I'm going to look only at the January incidents.

The second thing that strikes you [very favorably] is that the January cluster has a boatload of witnesses, lots of whom are "in plain sight", and many of whom are policemen. So... good start.

The third thing is that no REALLY good investigation seems to have been made. Because of that, I'm going to begin by saying what the newspapers got from the witnesses and put in their stories. The cast-of-characters above figures prominently in this, and several of them in the October events as well.

I always find it when people call cops (or govt officials) "credible witness" in regards to UFOs....but on any other thread, cops are idiots, liars, criminals, etc..



Although they're just human beings and subject to the same misperceptions as everybody else I'd say police officers do make pretty credible UFO witnesses (probably the most credible) and there are also quite a number of cases out there where separately located police officers have all submitted similar UFO reports or object descriptions. This article also makes some pretty good points about the credibility and reliability of officers 'highly trained and experienced in reporting what they see' and Dr Hynek also mentions in a 1975 FBI Bulletin here that 'experience definitely shows that the best reports, those with the greatest information content, come from technically trained, professional people, especially law enforcement personnel”
Cheers.
