Ted Anderson has been an amateur astronomer for over 30 years. Like many ufologists, he is intrigued by a continual flurry of UFO activity he's seen
by telescope in the "handle" of the Big Dipper (the constellation Ursa Major --J.T.) , near the stars Alcor and Mizar.
If hyperspace is the "superhighway" for interstellar alien spacecraft, then this region is the "exit ramp to Earth" for the saucers.
Ted Anderson calls it "the UFO Universe Freeway Entrance."
"I've been watching a special location in the heavens for thirty years," Ted reported, "And I've seen several hundred mother ships and planetary
vehicles come and go. Since August (2004), something has changed. This is extremely important. As to why, your guess is as good as mine."
"Two to four small red alien ships are controlling the Entrance. They are moving around constantly. I have not seen an alien mother ship come or go
since this started. They (the four UFOs) move fast; they chase each other; they hold in place. This has been going on for several weeks now."
"If you can see the Big Dipper, look to the south toward Arcturus and watch between 9 p.m. and midnight. They are too dark and move too fast to
record with my small, telescope-mounted camera." (Email Form Report)
(Editor's Note: Arcturus is at or below the horizon by now. If you have a telescope, readers, zero in on the Whirlpool Galaxy just below Alcor and
Mizar and check the region of sky just west of the galaxy.)

Wow! I'm thinking too much acid?
However, the Nebraska cattle mutilation story is true. So maybe this is true.
If only I had a telescope, I would check it out. Darn it.

Must be one heck of a telescope he has in his backyard. Hubble can't even see gas giant planets in that area.... or are these mother ships bigger
than stars and putting off about the same amount of light?

They are about 80 light years away. Anything seen in the area happened 80 years ago.

Yeah Munro, I understand your question, and what to know as well. I know it takes years for light to travel to earth, so a star we see now... well
could have exploded several undread million years ago, we just still see the light. What about objects??? Does the same rule apply? Im not sure how
to ask the question, but im sure someone knows what me and Munro are trying to say.

Maybe he is not necessarily talking about seeing ships cross "at" the Ursa Major region, but that it only appears so in the sky to him. This would
mean that the ships are actually fairly close to Earth because they appear to jump around in that area whose stars are light years away from each
other. I would guess the guy probably means he see's them close to Earth from his vantage point, which makes them look as if they are "between the
stars".
I wish I could go and observe this sometime and see if there is any basis to this, but being in the city, the lights are usually to bright to see
much.
On another note....I really miss living in the country

man, i wish i had a telescope....
i can understand how they have highways pathed out, wouldnt want to go crashing into a meteor. their ships are probably all too impresive. i can
understand how they are illuminated also. seeing as they are metalic, lights from the stars will shine off them. now when are we gonna get some
improved telescope/camera technology? with so much UFO evidence floating around we should start cataloging all the different makes and models of alien
craft out there.

And he's never hooked up a film camera to his telescope?

Here's what he wrote:
"If you can see the Big Dipper, look to the south toward Arcturus and watch between 9 p.m. and midnight. They are too dark and move too fast to
record with my small, telescope-mounted camera." (Email Form Report)

I find that hard to beleive. THere are certianly very high speed films out there that are good for taking pictures of starlight, and the exposure
lenght can allways be increased. SUrely if there were a ufo superhighway in that area of the sky someone of the many astronomers that are supposedly
aware of this could get photographs.

Man, you'd think that after having seen a couple of hundred interstellar space vehicles, he might have invested in a camera or something for his
telescope and shown someone the pictures.
You'd think...
JINX!

he's been watching this for 30 years and nobody else has seen this? bogus.
with all the sky watchers, ufo hunters, etc out there, someone would have spotted the kind of activity he's talking about.
it always amazes me how someone has repeated encounters and never manages to snap even a crappy pic.

If you can see with a small telescope, then it's CLOSE. So, how is it this guy is the first and maybe only to report it? I have skywatched for years,
and as the dipper is very recognizable and a good place to begin star-hopping observation, gah-zillions of people would have noticed. I haven't. So
what's up with this then? Okay, maybe I was looking at the wrong time, but maybe not.

In his defense, I pulled out my 6 inch reflector a few months ago and happened to briefly sight to rapidly moving red objects.
I have never seen anything like it before and since.
