An ‘orb’
UFO
was shot out the sky and retrieved by the US Navy during a 1962 missile test, a former top aide to four US presidents revealed.
Harald Malmgren served as a key adviser to presidents John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard Nixon, and Gerald Ford.
The former government employee mentioned that he received detailed briefings from leading CIA agents andAtomic Energy Commission representatives about a recorded rocket trial conducted during the Cuban Missile Crisis in October 1962, when an astonishing unidentified flying object event happened.
Dr. Pippa Malmgren, an economist and formerly a Special Assistant to President George W. Bush, shared insights into her father’s tale during a discussion. She is also the daughter of Malmgren.

, following the death of the seasoned presidential aide on February 13 at the age of 89.
Before he passed away, her father had newly resolved to share his complete narrative “for the benefit of history.”
Harald recounted a video showing a missile test launch dated October 25, 1962. In this footage, an enigmatic “white sphere” appears to circle the speeding rocket multiple times.
The missile was equipped with what Pippa described as ‘an X-ray machine in the nosecone’, designed to use radiation to disable an incoming enemy nuclear missile.
However, the test missile’s powerful X-ray emission seemed to incapacitate the UFO as well.
“The X-rays forced it down from the sky. The U.S. Navy recovered the sphere from the sea,” Pippa recounted in her dad’s tale posted on her blog on March 18.
According to Harald, this was not the first instance of an orb being seen pursuing a U.S. missile.
We referred to them as ‘tagalongs,'” Harald stated in the blog post. “We managed to knock down one of those ‘tagalongs.’
Pippa mentioned that her father was informed about the incident since he handled the budget for the missile testing program, serving as a high-ranking White House and Pentagon official.
“Prior to my father’s recent passing, he documented everything he knew about these events because he believed it was crucial for the preservation of history,” she stated.
Harald, who remained actively engaged on the social media platform X until his last days, made veiled references to the incident.
in a tweet back in August
.
“More than 60 years ago, I received top-level clearances to head up Department of Defense efforts on nuclear weapons and anti-missile defense,” he stated.
‘I was casually informed about ‘extraterrestrial technologies’ by CIA’s Richard Bissell (who oversaw projects like Skunk Works, Area 51, and Los Alamos) but I was bound to confidentiality.’
Bissell informed me privately following his departure from the role of CIA Deputy Director for Special Operations.
‘I sensed he believed I should be forewarned in case this topic arose during discussions with presidents or other individuals. I promised confidentiality to him, without any legal obligation.’
Pippa mentioned in her blog post that her father informed her about being briefed in 1963 by the regional head of the Atomic Energy Commission at that time, Lawrence Preston Gise.
Gise is also the grandfather of Jeff Bezos, the billionaire who founded Amazon and the aerospace manufacturer Blue Origin.
At that particular gathering, according to Malmgren, he managed to get hold of a fragment from what was believed to be an ‘extraterrestrial’ vehicle, leading him to have an extraordinary encounter.
He traveled to Albuquerque for a briefing,” Pippia noted, further stating that Gise “reportedly obtained items from the downed aircraft.
He placed them on his desk, passed them to my dad, and subsequently requested him to articulate his feelings. My father mentioned that a voice started speaking to him internally. This was precisely what Gise wished to ascertain.
His father neither remembered nor chose to mention what those words were. He apparently noted that certain individuals engage with the material, while others do not. As a result of this discussion, they had briefings at Los Alamos and received an invite from Richard Bissell.
Harald informed his daughter that former President JFK and Vice President Johnson were provided with extensive ‘top-secret debriefings’ regarding the event on December 7, 1962, at various locations including the Strategic Air Command Headquarters situated at Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska, the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, Kirtland Air Force Base, and Sandia National Laboratories located in Albuquerque.
She asserts that this particular event prompted JFK’s famous de-escalation discussions with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev.
The reason Kennedy reached out to Khrushchev and initiated discussions on limiting armaments was due to information from America’s leading government scientists about unidentified anomalous phenomena sightings and their appearance during anti-ballistic missile tests, according to Pippa.
On December 7th, 1962, JFK was informed of three separate occasions regarding a missile test known as Operation BlueGill Triple Prime. This briefing took place at various sites, one being Los Alamos. During these discussions, he learned that the operation had resulted in the detection of an unidentified aerial phenomenon (UAP), thereby confirming our status as inhabitants among potentially many others in the vastness of space.
The ex-White House advisor stated that his father verified for him and others that they had gained knowledge from the crashed UFOs.
He mentioned that we discovered these peculiar vehicles could be affected by X-rays. This was an additional rationale for our experiments with X-rays at higher latitudes.
The remarkable account has partial support from government documents, uncovered by ex-Australian intelligence officer turned UFO investigator Geoff Cruickshank, and was released in December on a website dedicated to UFO news.

.
Cruickshank mentioned an experimental Cold War-era warhead, the XW-50-X1, known for emitting high-energy X-rays intended to incapacitate missile re-entry vehicles through extreme heat and structural harm. This aligns with Harald’s account.
Cruickshank also pointed to
now-declassified videos
displaying a high-altitude detonation of a nuclear weapon over the Pacific Ocean near Johnston Island on October 26, 1962.
A visible object seems to spin out from within the nuclear fireball in the video.
He mentioned that a subsequent edition of the footage had been censored by authorities from the Los Alamos laboratory, featuring a white triangular shape covering the area where the descending item could be seen.
On September 19, 1962, two weeks prior to this incident, yet another unidentified flying object was captured on film moving at 18 times the speed of sound. This UFO followed an Avco Mark 4 missile for approximately 90 seconds as it plummeted down after being launched from the Atlantic Missile Range near Cape Canaveral, Florida.
A index card notes the video recording as a ‘UFO sighting’.
The card describes ‘a missile in flight, followed by its breakup; the camera focuses on the nose cone, where a smaller object can be seen flying above and behind it along a parallel trajectory.’
After the October 1962 Blue Gills experiment, naval vessels were dispatched to collect the remnants.
Cruickshank stated that the deck logs kept at the National Archives describe some of this wreckage as ‘unusual.’
The logs from the two additional vessels, the USS Engage and the USS John S. McCain, documented intercepting an ‘experimental pod,’ along with observing a ‘black sphere in the sea’ and a ‘green cylinder.’
According to the log entries, the tube exhibited a radiation reading of 60 mR (milli-Roentgen) when measured from a distance of one foot. This indicates a secure yet heightened level, implying that it was in close proximity to a nuclear incident.
According to records from various vessels, the team aboard the USNS Point Barrow noted abnormally elevated radiation readings following their retrieval operation.
However, Point Barrow’s logs have vanished from the archives, according to what Cruickshank wrote.

On Sunday, a blaze ignited by a thunderstorm devastated a school structure at Saint Peter’s Primary School in Igbemo Ekiti, completely destroying five classroom blocks.
During a heavy rainstorm that lasted for more than an hour, the event compelled educators to move students to a neighboring institution, the AUD Pilot Nursery and Primary School, so they could carry on with their studies.
On Monday, Governor Biodun Oyebanji, who was represented by Deputy Governor Monisade Afuye, toured the location and guaranteed that the administration would swiftly reconstruct the building.
Oyebanji stated, “The demolished structure will be reconstructed in time so that both students and educators can feel relieved following the fire incident.”
I feel disheartened about this fire that occurred due to an enigmatic lightning strike. Even though the building has been destroyed, we are relieved that nobody was injured since the students and staff were away at their homes.
What caught my attention most was how quickly you transferred the students to a close-by school. This demonstrated the dedication of the State Universal Basic Education Board towards the educational development of these students and highlighted the importance of ensuring they remain competitive with peers from other institutions.
“We are assuring you that the structure shall be rebuilt back to normal shape so that the pupils and teachers can return to their original school in no distant time.”
In the meantime, following complaints from educators regarding unsanitary behaviors, the governor instructed to halt open defecation and waste disposal at the AUD Pilot School grounds.
The Education Secretary of Irepodun/Ifelodun Local Government, Mrs Adesola George-Ojo, emphasized the importance of finishing the school’s boundary fence to avoid additional environmental risks.

Kumasi, March 24, GNA – The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) has refuted claims that they were responsible for the fire outbreak which completely devastated ‘Blue Light,’ a well-known shopping area located in Adum, the heart of Kumasi’s commercial center.
Mr. George Amoah, who serves as the Ashanti West Region Manager at the firm, informed the Ghana News Agency during an interview that these claims lack merit. He emphasized the importance of having both traders and citizens await the conclusions from the ongoing probe, currently being carried out by the Ghana National Fire Service.
The traders who were impacted along with several citizens are attributing the persistent electrical issues to the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG), leading to a series of power instabilities that culminated in one of the most devastating fires Kumasi has seen in recent times.
A massive blaze engulfed the commercial area located between the Hello FM radio station and Kumasi Central Market, wiping out merchandise worth several million Ghanaian cedis. This conflagration left numerous traders facing significant financial losses and mounting debts.
The reason behind the fire incident remains unclear, however, the traders are blaming the ECG due to frequent power disruptions, affecting Kumasi and nearby areas during that time.
The Ashanti Regional Security Committee had previously instructed the Ghana Navy Fleet Services to carry out an extensive inquiry into the incident. Meanwhile, President John Dramani Mahama directed NADMO to arrange aid supplies and assistance for the numerous individuals affected.
Mr Amoah observed that prior to the blaze breaking out on Friday morning, electricity had been consistently available in the region throughout Thursday and into the early part of that tragic day.
“However, the company had to curtail power supply to the enclave when the fire started to enable the Ghana National Fire Service do its work and also protect life and property,” he said.
Mr. Amoah stated that the ‘Blue Light’ area hadn’t experienced any power outages for around three weeks prior to the fire incident.
He mentioned that the ECG provided a specific power distribution line named ‘Town Hall Tower,’ guaranteeing a steady energy supply because the area acted as one of the financial centers for the ECG.
“The distributive feeder serving the enclave is among the most robust in the Ashanti West Region, and over the last three weeks, we have had no outages in that area,” according to Mr. Amoah.
He also mentioned that there was another power supply option called ‘Power House Two’ that passed through the same area.
He highlighted that ensuring a consistent and dependable electricity supply within that area was among the highest priorities for the ECG.
Nevertheless, he voiced worries regarding the recurrent vandalism of transformers and the pilferage of electrical components, ultimately resulting in power disruptions at the marketplace.
Mr Amoah remembered two instances of transformer damage due to vandalism and theft of electrical components, with one event happening close to the former Melcom location, leading to a 48-hour blackout.
The second event took place approximately two weeks ago close to the Hello FM station, where a fire broke out and components like switches, fuses, and more were taken away by unidentified individuals.
Nonetheless, power was reinstated the same day since the missing items were promptly returned and the transformer was repaired.
Once more, he noticed that the structure where the fire began was considerably aged, heavily occupied, and featured numerous connections with incorrect wire dimensions.
“The wiring of the building is old, and a lot of people distribute power to their neighbors illegally with substandard electrical cables.
“Some establishments lack an earthing system entirely, whereas some possess outdated sockets that significantly endanger their overall safety,” Mr. Amoah pointed out.
He mentioned that ECG had multiple times sent representatives to the enclave to discuss with the traders about the importance of hiring certified electricians for the wiring work in their stores.
Mr Amoah stated that the ECG expressed sympathy for those affected by the catastrophic fire incident since they also suffered losses such as a transformer, around five utility poles, and several cables.

We’re recalling her due to serious violations, misuse of authority, and other issues – Constituents
LAGOS
The Independent National Electoral Commission has received a petition from the residents of Kogi Central Senatorial District seeking to recall the senator who was suspended and represents the district in the National Assembly.
The petition was filed along with more than 250,000 signatures from residents, representing approximately half of the roughly 480,000 registered voters in Kogi Central—a total that satisfies INEC’s criteria of 50% plus one.
The petition brought forward by Ms. Charity Ijese on behalf of her fellow constituents was handed over to the INEC headquarters where it was accepted by the Commission’s Secretary, Mrs. Rose Anthony, early Monday morning and duly timestamped.
In their petition, entitled “Petition by Constituents Calling for the Recall of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan Due to Loss of Trust,” the signatories stated, “As duly registered voters within Kogi Central Senatorial District, we exercise our legal rights granted under the statutes of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. We officially request the removal of Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan from her position in the Nigerian Senate.”
This application for recalling Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan is submitted under Section 69 of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (amended version) and according to INEC’s Rules and Procedures for Recall Petitions.
They stated that Akpoti-Uduaghan came into power due to a Court of Appeal ruling in October 2024; however, they mentioned that the petition was filed because they lost faith in her representation.
This petition stems from our lost trust in the Senator because of serious wrongdoing, misuse of authority, avoidance of proper procedures, and a consistent pattern of deceptive actions. These behaviors have not only humiliated the citizens of Kogi Central but have also damaged the credibility of both the Nigerian Senate and our country’s democratic systems.
Through this petition, which we have confirmed has been signed by over half of the registered voters in Kogi Central, we are demanding that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) initiate the constitutional and procedural steps for recalling Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan from her position so as to declare her seat vacant,” stated the constituents.
In her address to the press following the filing of the petition, Ijese, surrounded by numerous fellow constituents, reiterated their commitment to seeing the recall effort through.
