Several years ago, I published a blog expressing the theory that the famous Kaikoura UFOs of 1978 were the result of an experiment in holographic imaging using plasma generated by ionospheric heating (“HAARP” technology). Recently while following up a potential connection with the more recent gun camera footage released by the US Navy of alleged UFOs, I came upon this interesting patent.

- Through optical beam forming techniques, an array of plasma columns 140 can be created, forming a sheet-like plasma, creating a layer of excited electrons in the air. This layer can be used as a reflective surface, or mirror, for incident energies whose frequencies are below the plasma frequency, reflecting the power away from the intended path. The layer can also be used instead to deflect, diffract, or redirect the incident energy in a different direction.
- [0022]By rastering plasma 130, it is possible to generate a 2D or 3D volumetric image in space. This is analogous to the rastering of an electron beam in a cathode ray tube based television. In one potential embodiment, a laser system would be mounted on the back of an air vehicle such that the beam can be rastered using optics and mirrors to generate a large ‘ghost’ image in space. This ‘ghost’ image would appear to detract the homing missile away from the tangible air vehicle. In a second embodiment, there can be multiple laser systems mounted on the back of the air vehicle with each laser system generating a ‘ghost image’ such that there would appear to be multiple air vehicles present. The homing missile will have 1/n chances of tracking the correct target where ‘n’ is the number of decoys.

Note: My own blog on the subject from several years back is now “lost” (was posted at The ConTrail and here at Uncensored) but if I mange to retrieve it, I will add a link to this posting.
