An undisclosed UFO incident during the Cuban Missile Crisis has recently come to light thanks to the revelations of Harald Malmgren, a former advisor to multiple US Presidents.
In 1962, a 'white orb' UFO was disabled and retrieved by the US Navy during a missile test, as disclosed posthumously by advisor Harald Malmgren, the Daily Mail reported.
At the height of the Cold War in October 1962, amidst the tensions of the Cuban Missile Crisis, a secretive missile test took place that involved not just military advancements but also an unexplained encounter. Harald Malmgren, who served as a senior advisor to Presidents from John F. Kennedy to Gerald Ford, was briefed on this extraordinary event.
The incident involved a missile equipped with an X-ray mechanism aimed at neutralizing enemy missiles. However, it encountered an unexpected target—a mysterious 'white orb' that appeared to interact with the missile's trajectory.
Top CIA and Atomic Energy Commission officials informed Malmgren that the missile's X-ray technologies successfully disabled the orb. A video captured this unexpected interaction, providing physical evidence of the encounter.
After disabling the UFO, the US Navy swiftly launched operations to retrieve the object from the ocean. Officials aimed not only to recover a foreign object but also to handle potentially disruptive technology.
Malmgren revealed that the incident reached the highest levels of the US government, prompting urgent strategic discussions. Officials directly briefed President John F. Kennedy and Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson, who were deeply involved in managing the Cuban Missile Crisis at the time.
Kennedy became aware of the UFO incident, which influenced his strategy in diplomatic relations with the Soviet Union. This knowledge reportedly led him to engage in de-escalation talks with Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev, aiming to reduce the nuclear threat.
The incident also drew attention from high-security areas such as Los Alamos and Strategic Air Command Headquarters. Officials in these locations evaluated the implications of such advanced technology and assessed its potential impact on national security and defense technologies.
Further expanding on the story, other military logs from the time documented abnormal debris and increased radiation levels during the recovery operation, hinting at the extraordinary nature of the orb and its materials.
Harald Malmgren's knowledge extended beyond just this incident. According to a social media post before his death, Richard Bissell, a key CIA figure deeply involved in secretive projects like Area 51 and Skunkworks, had "informally briefed" him on "otherworld technologies."
These briefings, according to Malmgren, were essential for understanding potentially shifting paradigms in global defense mechanisms. His exposure to such information was part of broader discussions on antimissile defenses and nuclear weaponry in his role with the Department of Defense.
Dr. Pippa Malmgren shared these revelations on her blog following her father's death on February 13, at the age of 89. She spoke about his decision to disclose these events, saying, "Before my father recently passed away, he went on record explaining what he knew about all this because he felt it was important for the sake of history."
As these undisclosed experiences with unidentified objects and technologies became part of government discussions, they contributed to ongoing speculations around governmental knowledge of UFOs and extraterrestrial technology.
The incident ties into broader narratives around high-stakes military and space endeavors during the Cold War, exemplified by other events like the high-altitude nuclear test near Johnston Island, which saw further UFO interferences.
Harald Malmgren's account, now shared with the public, underscores the complex interplay between national security measures, governmental transparency, and unforeseen encounters during a tumultuous period in American history.
With these disclosures, the realms of defense, space exploration, and extraterrestrial technologies converge into narratives that may prompt a reevaluation of historical events and potential technologies. Malmgren's revelations reveal layers of historical complexity that could inform current and future policies regarding unidentified aerial phenomena and their impact on global security contexts.
