Project Serpo

Project Serpo is a term in ufology circles referring to an alleged exchange programme between ultra top secret levels in the government of the United States and an alien homeworld called Serpo. It is speculated that Serpo is an (as yet officially uncharted) inhabited planet in the Zeta Reticuli system. Zeta Reticuli is a mapped binary star some 39 Light Years from earth. In the 1990s it was thought that a planet had been detected here using advanced telescopes but that was later recanted by scientists who stated that it was merely a "wobble" caused by a pulsar. This has only increased speculation of a cover up.

Bill Ryan, retired AFOSI Special Agent Richard Doty and author Whitley Strieber (writer of "Unknown Country") have all discussed Project Serpo (link to site). Project Serpo is an alleged secret exchange program of 12 military personnel to Serpo (and presumably 12 of their kind to Earth) between the years 1965-1978. Ryan explained that he is a participant in a private ufology email forum and that in early November 2005 started receiving plausible messages from an "anonymous" contributor revealing information about Project Serpo which Ryan has subsequently chronicled on his website.

Whitley Strieber shared an incident that took place at a UFO conference in Gulf Breeze, Florida in the early 1990's when an elderly gentleman told him he could prove he was from another planet, saying only one word after that: "Serpico". Strieber now wonders if he misheard the word, and the man was actually saying Serpo. If he was then this would appear to corroborate the information received seperately by Bill Ryan.

Richard Doty said he was at first skeptical of the Project Serpo information, but later heard rumors within the intelligence community that the story is in fact true. Two other sources have also come forward and all are supposedly retired employees of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). Bill Ryan states that there is a total of 3,000 pages of information on the project that is being released in installments.

According to the "anonymous" source, Serpo is an Earth-sized planet with a population of around 650,000 alien beings (known in ufology as EBENs). An EBEN who allegedly survived the Roswell crash was said to have used a communication device to set up the exchange. Of the twelve who went on the exchange, eight returned (though all have since died), two died on Serpo, and two remained there. Bill Ryan believes that the story has credibility partially because some of the physics don't add up, and if someone was fabricating it all, they would have presented more consistent details.

Online discussion

Project Serpo has been a topic of heated discussions in the online conspiracy theory and UFO communities. Bill Ryan has participated directly in some of these exchanges online.

One such event on the conspiracy website AboveTopSecret.com generated the longest discussion thread (Project Serpo: Postings by "Anonymous" -- Breaking news?) in the history of that internet forum.

Subsequent to the release of the first image associated with Project Serpo -- a drawing identified only as "Ebenobject" (A scanned diagram from Anonymous), turns out to have been created by a Berol RapiDesign R-22 template. -- criticism of the credibility of the Serpo story and speculation that it was an internet hoax intensified through two analysts here and here.

Mr. Ryan left the AboveTopSecret.com discussion on February 6, 2006, citing difficulties with the staff.

To date, the truth surrounding Project Serpo remains unknown, and in the absence of further evidence, online discussion and speculation continues.

Edit: 31 Mar 06:

Project Serpo has been the subject of investigative scrutiny. One such group has now alleged the story to be a hoax perpetrated by abovetopsecret.com "Three Amigos" in concert with McLean VA attorney, Wayne Jaeschke. See: Abovetopsecret.com Exposed: [1] as well as the supplemental information on Serpo: [2] and on Simon Gray of abovetopsecret: [3]

However, other internet investigative groups are finding that any conclusions to date are premature.


From Serpo.org

Logically there are four possibilities:

1) Anonymous is a prankster and the reported data is either all invented or culled from other sources and added to a wild novelistic story.

2) Anonymous is operating to a planned agenda and the information is deliberately distorted, but contains a core of extraordinary truth.

3) Anonymous is doing his best to report data from an indirect source (personal notes, his own short or long term memory, or another person), but accidental errors, omissions and additions have occurred.

4) Anonymous is reporting everything faithfully and accurately as best as he can present it.

Only possibility (1) means everything should be rejected. The other three necessarily mean that the reports deserve close attention.
