Project Pentacle: A Top Secret UFO Program Running Parallel with Project Blue Book?

<p>Tucked snuggly into the original Project Blue Book files was a two-page memo that easily could have been lost to time. However, in 1967, noted astronomer and computer scientist, Jacques Vallée, was helping organize the overwhelming amount of backlogged files of Dr. J. Allen Hynek. That's when Vallée discovered a letter amongst the files that both fascinated and shocked him. It was stamped in red ink ‘SECRET – Security Information.’ and signed by a man Vallée would refer to only as "Pentacle." Was a secret UFO study running parallel to Project Blue Book and were those involved actually monitoring UFO events in real-time? Even more mysterious, was this secret group simulating planned UFO events as well? We are joined by Micah Hanks of The Debrief to break down the highly intriguing Pentacle Memorandum from a historical context and its possible connections to modern day UFO programs. </p><br><p>Visit Micah Hanks at: <a href="https://www.micahhanks.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.micahhanks.com/</a></p><br><p>Please take a moment to rate and review us on Spotify and Apple.</p><br><p>Book Ryan on CAMEO at: <a href="https://bit.ly/3kwz3DO" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bit.ly/3kwz3DO</a></p><p>Patreon: <a href="http://www.patreon.com/somewhereskies" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.patreon.com/somewhereskies</a></p><p>ByMeACoffee: <a href="http://www.buymeacoffee.com/UFxzyzHOaQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.buymeacoffee.com/UFxzyzHOaQ</a></p><p>PayPal: [email protected]</p><p>Discord: <a href="https://discord.gg/NTkmuwyB4F" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://discord.gg/NTkmuwyB4F</a></p><p>Bluesky: <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/ryansprague.bsky.social" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bsky.app/profile/ryansprague.bsky.social</a></p><p>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/SomewhereSkies" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/SomewhereSkies</a></p><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/somewhereskiespod/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/somewhereskiespod/</a></p><p>Tik Tok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@ryansprague51" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.tiktok.com/@ryansprague51</a></p><p>Order Ryan’s new book: <a href="https://a.co/d/4KNQnM4" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://a.co/d/4KNQnM4</a></p><p>Order Ryan’s older book: <a href="https://amzn.to/3PmydYC" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://amzn.to/3PmydYC</a></p><p>Store: <a href="http://tee.pub/lic/ULZAy7IY12U" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://tee.pub/lic/ULZAy7IY12U</a></p><p>Read Ryan’s articles at: <a href="https://medium.com/@ryan-sprague51" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://medium.com/@ryan-sprague51</a></p><p>Opening Theme Song by Septembryo</p><p>Copyright © 2025 Ryan Sprague.
