FACT SHEET
February 1, 2014, updated Dec. 11, 2018 * This updated page replaces one by the same title which described a single, but expensive MADAR system located at Mt. Vernon, Indiana. In its place, the MADAR-III-B DataProbe provides a major network of affordable devices that can provide even more data. For more details and ordering information go to: http://www.nicap.org/madar.htm Mark Rodeghier, CUFOS: "There has been a significant
reduction in cases involving potential physical
evidence (Close Encounters of the Second Kind) and
cases where a creature or humanoid is seen in
conjunction with a UFO (Close Encounters of the Third
Kind). This type of close encounter has almost
vanished even though there were hundreds of such
reports in the early years. Another significant change
has been in the number of daylight sightings, which
have decreased from about one-third years ago to just
a few percent today. And finally, UFOs are much more
commonly reported to be triangular or boomerang-shaped
now, rather than the common disc that is the image of
a UFO in the popular mind." (IUR_V30 No4, 2006)
"Most of the world's cellphone camera
operators are concentrated in about 4% of the earth's
surface area (keeping in mind that most of the area of
the planet is essentially uninhabited ocean). The
main areas of cellphone camera operators are
concentrated in China, India, Europe and the US."Brad Sparks: Fran Ridge: The primary purpose of the MADAR
Project is the placement of suitable devices in order
to provide an Early Warning System for the presence of
electromagnetic anomalies and increase the
opportunities for visual target
acquisition. E-M effects are well-known
and documented in over 500 cases associated with UFO
sightings (CUFOS) and 185 E-M cases documented
involving UFOs near aircraft (Dr. Richard
Haines). Over 250 incidents are listed on the
NICAP site. Eric Herr has tabulated 144 compass
needle events. Allowing trained observers to
observe Unidentified Aerial Phenomena and record other
scientific data by automatic & manually operated
devices, especially cameras, is the primary goal of
the MADAR Project.
MADAR: WHAT DOES THE ACRONYM STAND FOR? Multiple Anomaly Detection & Automated Recording. MADAR SENSOR*
The detection devices
are small, affordable, and very sensitive
magnetometers, electronically monitored,
round-the-clock, by stable, commercially-built
micro-computers and a dedicated server. The sensor
reading change is used to perform two functions:
a) Detect and record an anomaly, its intensity and duration, including compass movement, the field in mGa, and the barometric pressure - all time-stamped in UTC (Universal Time Code). An alert is transmitted to the op via email and data is stored on the server. b) Activate an audio alarm signal and/or ADT panel so that other instruments can be turned on during an event and personnel can be alerted to scan the skies and operate other hand-held equipment.
