| February 1, 2014, updated Jan 27, 2021 This updated page replaces one by the same title which described a single, but expensive MADAR (II) 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. 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 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 phone text and data is stored on the server. b) Activate an audio alarm signal using a DAS 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. Twenty-five percent of the hundred-plus devices in the field are equipped with this Delayed Alarm Signal device.
