MAJIC EYES ONLY:
Earth's Encounters with Extraterrestrial Technology

With MAJIC Eyes Only Ryan Wood has made a major contribution not only to the study of extraterrestrial-related phenomena, but to exopolitics. The political and social implications of the technology embedded in the off-world craft recovered by several nations, including the United States, are almost beyond measure. The energy and propulsion systems behind the known performance characteristics of these vehicles could transform the human condition and reverse in less than a generation the environmental degradation taking place worldwide. Evidence mounts the United States government has re- or reverse-engineered this technology. But its availability to all of humanity is blocked by a 58-year truth embargo alluded to in documents leaked over several decades from within the government itself. Ryan Wood and his father, aerospace physicist Dr. Robert Wood, have emerged as the leading experts in the world on these documents and the recovery of alien crashed vehicles. This is absolutely essential reading for every member of Congress and every member of the political press in America. The well being of the planet and the human race rests upon getting at technology held hostage by a truth embargo the United States government still refuses to end.

I have just read Ryan Wood’s landmark book, MAJIC Eyes Only and I was much impressed with his objective perspective and the wealth of data he has presented. I have been on the periphery of UFO studies and had no idea that at least 74 crash sites had been reported, many with discussions of occupants. Ryan leaves little doubt about which reports are poorly documented or are probably hoaxes.

I have recognized Ryan as a thorough scientific investigator during the 1990’s when we worked together on earthquake prediction studies. It was rewarding to read the summaries of so many UFO reports, which were new to me, especially Penkridge England (1964) and Kecksburg, Pennsylvania (1965). I would liked to have seen more than a page and one-half description of the important 1980 Rendlesham Forest incident, which caught my attention on a transatlantic flight back from England in 1984. A fellow passenger left his copy of the SUNDAY MIRROR, with a thorough front page item about U.S. and English military forces involvement with an apparent extraterrestrial contact. I telephoned Stan Friedman about the article and he exclaimed, “Oh, no, they’ve done it again!” He informed me that the SUNDAY MIRROR was little more than a tabloid, and the “secret” story he had been investigating had apparently been officially “leaked” to a questionable news source so that the story could be discounted by debunkers.

Majic Eyes Only provides a quick reference to the chronology of crash reports since 189 7 . Also presented are many copies of “Top Secret” documents, many of which have been well-authenticated by Ryan and others. This book is well-organized and well-written and it should be in the library of anyone even mildly interested in the subject of UFO’s,

"It is no accident of human invention that quantum leaps in technologies involving metal-carbon low observable alloys "stealth" and propulsion systems "pulse detonation engines" have occurred in such a contracted period of time. To believe so would be the stuff that fairy tales are made of, or more likely the tip of a cover-up iceberg, the scale and complexity of which is unprecedented in history. Hopefully, MAJIC EYES ONLY will be the icebreaker vessel, which eventually frees the logjam of truth."

- Andrew Ceroni, Author of MERIDIAN

This book goes far, far beyond the typical UFO books which dwell on lights in the sky or someone's autobiography. Even if only a small fraction of the reported UFO crashes are true this is still worth the read. Not to be read once, but perhaps several times then to be used as a reference in any future research, the book has "meat" and substance. One of the many high points of this book is a copy of the citation award given to Harry B. Cooper, father of Tim Cooper by Gen. Curtis E. Lemay. The award cites Harry Cooper for his exemplary knowledge in support of the Air Force UFO program. This citation and a lot more make this book a non stop thriller and a must read for anyone seriously interested in the UFO phenomena; you won't be sorry you did.

- Robert M. Collins, Author of Exempt From Disclosure

I've spent fifteen years trying to prove just one single UFO crash retrieval case -- ROSWELL -- and I applaud but tremble at Ryan Wood's chutzpah in trying to prove a very large number of them in a single book. However, one thing is certain: Ryan Wood and his father, Dr. Robert Wood, have established themselves most convincingly as a prodigious, thorough, insightful, honest, uncompromising, educated -- and yes, let's use the "B" word -- brilliant team of UFO investigators who are to UFO's what the GOSPEL OF JUDAS team has become to theological research. With MAJIC EYES ONLY, in his solo flight as book author, Ryan shows us all the nuggets -- UFO cases that are contenders for genuine crashes of extraterrestrial technology, and he begins the investigation and dialogue that will lead us to determine one day which of the "ore samples" will prove to be the long lost gold.

- Paul Davids, Executive Producer and Co-Writer of ROSWELL, the Showtime Movie

"MAJIC Eyes Only is an important and valuable contribution to the necessary research that hopefully and eventually will result in a more open and honest approach by our government to 'the greatest story in human history.' I have hopes that in time this subject will receive the respect it deserves from the fields of Academe. MAJIC Eyes Only should become a textbook for generations of young minds who will help us through the difficulties in becoming a truly cosmic society in the years ahead."

- Robert Dean, Command Sergeant Major, United States Army

The specific history of UFO crash retrievals remains a matter of uncertainty and debate, even among UFO researchers. Still, the likelihood appears strong that several military recoveries have been made of exotic aerial technology - technology that does not appear to have originated from our civilization. The implications of this are enormous, and Ryan Wood has prepared the best compendium and analysis of UFO crash retrievals to date. His work will stand as a valuable resource for future students and researchers of this topic, as well as for anyone who wants to glimpse part of the unseemly underbelly of the U.S. national security establishment.

- Richard M. Dolan, Author of UFOs and the National Security State

"I highly recommend that you read MAJIC Eyes Only. As for myself, I am highly pleased that this book has been written. It is time that we know the truth that we are not alone in this galaxy. It is also important to note that none of these alien visitors made any attempt to harm earth beings. Keep your eyes on the skies."

- Hal Fox, Editor: New Energy News

"MAJIC EYES ONLY is the first real attempt to make available to a wide audience a great number of supposed reports of the retrieval by governments of crashed flying saucers. Some stories are very brief and have had little real investigation. Some such as the Roswell, New Mexico, events of July, 1947, are explored in considerable detail. A number of the referenced MJ-12 documents are still very controversial. The curious reader will have much material to sink his teeth into. Even if only a small percentage of the noted cases turn out to be true, the implications for the history of mankind are profound."

- Stanton T. Friedman, Nuclear Physicist, Author of TOP SECRET/MAJIC

"MAJIC EYES ONLY is a carefully researched and highly readable summary of 74 crash retrieval accounts by an author with deep roots in ufology. It makes a compelling case that at least some alien technology has crashed on our planet. Although my own interests have evolved away from nuts-and-bolts ufology, I can recommend this as an excellent summary of the most credible evidence for crash retrievals and as food for thought even if you, like me, are now more focused on what the UFO phenomenon may be able to tell us about the mysterious program called Life in which we find ourselves. The "crashed UFO" has been a persistent theme in ufology since at least 1897, and I suspect it is an important clue to the nature and meaning of our program."

- Peter Gersten, Executive Director of Citizens Against UFO Secrecy (CAUS)

"While the public has heard about Roswell and Kecksburg, most individuals are unaware that there are many other accounts of strange objects having fallen from the sky, and reportedly recovered both in the United States and abroad. Majic Eye's Only, presents to the reader a great deal of new and little known information concerning the UFO crash recovery controversy."

- Stan Gordon, Author Kecksburg

"In this new book, Mr. Wood has provided an important historical overview of the many UFO Crash/Retrieval events, dating to the late 1800s, and continues the work of late Leonard Stringfield in this regard. We call on all witnesses to such events to come forward and disclose the truth about such events - it is time for humanity to know that we are not alone."

- Steven M. Greer MD , Executive Director for The Disclosure Project

"MAJIC EYES ONLY used to keep almost everyone from seeing a report, letter, or document. Now, through the nearly exhaustive investigative work of Ryan Wood, some of these same astounding secrets are being made public for the first time. MAJIC EYES ONLY now means something quite different. Highly readable, extraordinarily mind boggling."

- Dr. Richard F. Haines, Retired Senior Scientist

"Ryan Wood has done a great service to serious UFO researchers by compiling these important UFO crash incidents a in his book Majic Eyes Only. With a strong index it can be used as a reference tool to cross check whistleblower testimonies, possible dates and places with other UFO incidents. Now the World truly knows there could have been many more Roswell's!"

- Paola Harris, Journalist & Author of Connecting the Dots

"Thank you for the thoroughness with which you have attacked this most important subject of UFO crashes and subsequent military recoveries."

- Honorable Paul T. Hellyer, former Canadian Secretary of Defense 1963-1967

An EXCELLENT book, Ryan.
This is the type of book I thoroughly enjoy because it is simplified in layout, well written, and has overall high quality in the information it conveys from an expert in a specific field of knowledge.The general binding, artwork, etc., is excellent, beautiful, perfection.

It is TOP LEVEL QUALITY, congratulations. Are you aware that I worked with Leonard Stringfield in his early compilation of his important works? Leonard was a person of high trustworthiness and honesty.

"Most readers will be surprised that UFO crashes and retrievals were discussed in official government memos as far back as President FDR in the early 1940s. This important book presses against the American government's UFO secrecy lid like steam rising in a pressure cooker. How many more droplets will it take to burst the lid off?"

- Linda Moulton Howe, Emmy Award-winning TV Producer; Investigative Reporter and Editor of Earthfiles.com

"Ryan S. Wood's book, Majic Eyes Only shows us that the UFO phenomenon has persisted for decades and has left a clear trail of evidence, both controversial and substantial. Mr. Wood integrates that evidence with public policy and the book's organization suggests an integrative global approach to government openness. It is a one-stop compendium of some of the most contentious events in UFO history and is therefore valuable for researchers and for casual readers alike."

- Dr. David M. Jacobs, Associate History Professor, Temple University

"MAJIC EYES ONLY is a beginning and pioneering effort necessary for a meta analysis of data and research concerning extraterrestrial encounters on Earth. Hopefully this book will serve as an eye opening and conscience jarring wedge for citizens of the world to step forward with personal knowledge and documentation that ultimately will make the Earth encounter issue a respected and valued subject for open discussion and discovery at universities and public research organizations around the world. It is both a hope and expectation that this will result in classified government programs becoming irrelevant, overtaken by events. Smarter, more open minds will quickly balance fear, opportunity, and responsibility issues. When that begins, the potential for working relationships following direct citizen/extraterrestrials contact will arise."

- C.B. Scott Jones, Ph.D, Peace & Emergency Action Coalition for Earth

"Ryan Wood's fascinating book Majic Eyes Only is mandatory reading for anyone interested in the controversial topic of crashed 'flying saucers'. Wood approaches the subject with the keen eye of a detached journalist. He clearly believes there is something to it but stops short of personally endorsing the legitimacy of the scores of individual incidents that are mentioned. He reports, the reader decides, which is the way it should be. Some of the cases are supported in great detail. Other, less documented incidents, are included in the interests of thoroughness, but Wood is careful to differentiate between the two extremes, and without a lot of hyperbole or personal editorializing. This is an excellent reference book for believers, debunkers, and everyone in between."

- George Knapp, Award winning Investigative Reporter, KLASTV Las Vegas

"I found Majic Eyes Only to be a very interesting compilation of reports of crashes. I had no idea that there were this many credible incidents."

- Dr. Bruce Maccabee, Author UFO/FBI Connection & UFOs Are Real: Here Is The Proof

"Many questions remain in the UFO controversy. Scientists ask how interstellar pilots could survive a trip of hundreds of years while cutting-edge physicists offer speculation of deep space wormholes and the use of zero point energy. For now, we could not do any better than to study MAJIC EYES ONLY and read the accounts of UFO crash retrievals and ponder what a reality that includes diverse intelligent life outside of our planet might mean for us and future generations."

- Jim Marrs, Author of Crossfire, Alien Agenda, Rule by Secrecy and Inside Job

"Ryan Wood has pushed the envelope of ufology to new heights by chronicling 74 UFO crashes from 1897 to present. His investigation around the leaked Top Secret 'Majestic Documents' and now with his new book - Majic Eyes Only, Earth's Encounter's With Extraterrestrial Technology, must be considered the most comprehensive accounting and analysis on the subject of UFO crashes. The hard evidence presented by Wood provides credibility to the UFO phenomenon and makes a powerful case for intense military and governmental interest. In the future, a UFO crash event, related to the official history of UFO's, will only be considered real when it is reported in one of Ryan's books."

- Jamie Maussan, Broadcast TV News Anchor, Mexico

"MAJIC EYES ONLY is a major contribution toward sorting fact from disinformation in UFO crash investigations. Prodigious effort, determination, perseverance and great skill have combined to produce a most worthy contribution to UFO literature."

- Edgar Mitchell, Sc.D. Apollo 14 Astronaut Capt. USN (ret)

"MAJIC Eyes Only contains the same attention to detail and precise reporting I've watched Ryan Wood exercise from the tail gate of a truck, or out of his back pack in the middle of nowhere in the New Mexico desert, or up to his butt in weeds along a river bank in Missouri. In all cases, he never forgot to cross his T's or dot his i's while doing the research in the field. So I knew his book would be a winner as well - it's nice to see that he's exceeded my expectations. Ryan has always taken his work seriously, because his work is serious. With a great deal of perseverance and digging for the truth, he's done us all a great service by delivering it. If you are a serious UFO researcher, just getting started, or simply have an interest in the subject matter, this book will appeal equally to all. It's also an absolute must to have for any local lending library!"

- Joseph W. McMoneagle, CWO, USA, Ret., Author: Memoirs of a Psychic Spy

"Ryan S. Wood has done a phenomenal job in drawing together a vast body of evidence to support the theory that UFOs exist, that some have crashed on Earth, and that governments know more about this than they are saying. Most people have heard of Roswell, where in July 1947 something crashed. To the skeptics, it was a weather balloon; to the believers, an alien spacecraft. But Wood suggests that Roswell was merely the tip of the iceberg and presents evidence not just of one UFO crash, but of 74. Drawing on testimony from military witnesses and citing formerly classified government documents, Wood constructs a compelling case for the UFO. And most disturbingly for the skeptics, he only has to be right once, and the world changes forever."

- Nick Pope, Ministry of Defense UFO Project, 1991 - 1994

"Wood has done a real service here as Leonard Stringfield did before him; Wood has provided some fascinating information on incidents in which it is possible that alien artifacts, or the remains of interstellar craft, have been recovered. He provides the elements of the case, commenting on the value of the specific case, and giving sources of the information. For those who are interested in completing a library of UFO books, this is a necessity. It gives a look at MJ-12, the recovery of alien artifacts, and an overview of this state of research."

- Kevin D. Randle, Journalist and Author

"MAJIC EYES ONLY is essential reading for anyone with an interest in accounts of crashed UFOs, dead aliens and high-level conspiracies. Intriguing, controversial and fascinating - in equal measures!"

- Nick Redfern - Author of UFOs: A Covert Agenda, The FBI Files, and Cosmic Crashes

"Wood considers many dozens of potential UFO crashes, relying considerably on research by other UFO investigators; e.g., the 1897 case of a silver, cigar-shaped object that crashed near Aurora, Texas, has been heavily researched by veteran investigator Jim Marrs (who contributes the foreword to this book). Pioneer Leonard Stringfield is given due credit, as are others. There are some stunning examples from around the globe?certainly not just from Roswell! The final chapter is on the ill-fated SETI project, and the afterword exposes the "anti-conclusions" peddled by the 1969 Condon committee and gives some background on the source of the Majestic documents. May those behind the scenes keep on leaking!"

- Duncan Roads, Editor Nexus Magazine

"From its outset, the myth, legend and lore surrounding UFOs has been replete with speculation on crashes and recoveries of unknown craft. No one in the field has done more research and investigation into this highly charged area than Ryan Wood, and MAJIC Eyes Only is the most complete book available on the subject. I encourage you to read it and form your own conclusions"

- Peter Robbins, Author of Left at Eastgate

"Majic Eyes Only is a clearly, tightly written book covering possible UFO crash cases. The preponderance of the evidence assembled by the author makes a solid case for the existence of deeply classified government research on many of the retrieved vehicles as well as of recovered extraterrestrial biological entities. Hopefully, in future, someone in the US government will have the intestinal fortitude to "come clean" on what we know and what we don't. Keeping this material under wraps slows science to a snail's pace -- or stops anything that the world could learn from it."

- Paul M. Rybski, Ph.D., Associate Professor and Chair, Dept. of Physics, and Director, Whitewater Observatory, University of WI-Whitewater

"MAJIC EYES ONLY is unlike any other UFO book ever written. After years of debate about whether or not a hand full of UFO crash cases are real, Ryan Wood has made a breakthrough by looking beyond the popular crashes to find evidence of a whole series of crashes that occurred during the past century. While everyone of the cases may not prove to be of extraterrestrial origin, he has provided a body of technological evidence that strongly suggests that vehicles not made on Earth have crashed here and some of them have been recovered. This is an important book."

- John F. Schuessler, Mutual UFO Network, Inc., International Director

"MAJIC Eyes Only is the first and most compressive compendium of UFO crash reports. I would recommend it to anyone interested in a full accounting of crash events."

- Daniel P. Sheehan, JD Harvard Law

"Majic Eyes Only is the definitive compilation of UFO crashes from around the world. This book contains case files of the most well-known, UFO crash cases in history, clearly presented and accurately reported. Majic eyes only documents the extraordinary UFO crashes from around the world with clear and detail and precise reporting."

- Rob Simone, Radio Host

"MAJIC Eyes Only is a super-fascintating read, not only because of the interesting UFO events it describes, but also becasue of the highly remarkable style in which the data and information are organized and presented. Various important consistencies thus stand refreshingly revealed."

- Ingo Swann, Artist, Author, World Famous Psychic

"Ryan S. Wood has leveraged the results of his leadership in presenting three "UFO Crash Retrieval" conferences in the last three years. MAJIC EYES ONLY is a fascinating set of 74 reports of recovery or downing of possible extraterrestrial craft. The reports are actually quite conservative, not claiming more than where the evidence goes. Some have been investigated in great detail and others are short reports of high credibility that cry out for more investigation."

- Dr. Robert M. Wood

"Ryan Wood's tour de force, Majic Eyes Only, has set a new standard for the genre of UFO crash retrieval literature. An honest appraisal of the evidence that is presented in Majic Eyes Only leads to the incontrovertible conclusion that agencies of the U.S. government have retrieved numerous crashed UFOs and/or shot them down. The evidence also points to the recovery or capture of multiple UFO occupants, both dead and alive, by secretive elements of the U.S. government and military.

"Several of these operations have taken place in New Mexico and I can understand why, having lived for several years in that state myself. For whatever reason, many UFOs are seen in New Mexico; in fact, I have seen many of them there myself, so I am not surprised at all that some of them have fallen into the hands of the U.S. government and its military forces.

"Ryan Wood makes masterful use of a wide range of archival, documentary and anecdotal accounts to make a convincing case for more than 65 years of covert UFO recovery operations. Perhaps the most interesting operation for me personally was the brief mention of recovery of a UFO from the Pacific Ocean depths between Hawaii and California by Howard Hughes' Glomar Explorer ship in 1973. This operation dovetails with my own research that clearly shows a pattern of highly secretive CIA and U.S. Navy operations in the deep ocean environment in that time frame. No doubt we can expect further revelations from Ryan Wood in this vein as his research continues.

"Majic Eyes Only is well written, and really is a proverbial page turner. As I read, I couldn't wait to find out what happened next! This volume is a must have for both the novice UFO buff and the seasoned researcher. I recommend it to you highly."

- Richard Sauder, author of Underground Bases and Tunnels, Kundalini Tales and Underwater and Underground Bases

"Ryan Wood has made it easy for us to see that crashes of ET vehicles have been numerous over many decades. This should help us realize the extent of an alien presence around planet Earth. The 1882 classic, OAHSPE: A New Bible, tells us there are billions of ETs and angels here to assist us humans in these stressful times. More recent communications from "higher intelligence" tell us that our planet is the now the biggest show in our local universe. Thanks to Wood, the documentation is increasingly supporting the more esoteric information."

- Donald Ware, Director of the International UFO Congress, Former MUFON Director

Majic Eyes Only is a fascinating investigation into historical records involving 74 downed objects and vehicles. Based in part on the seminal work of the late Leonard Stringfield, to whom credit is duly given, Ryan S. Wood carries the necessary and meticulous study of crash retrievals into the light of the 21st Century. Much gratitude is owed to Ryan S. Wood and Dr. Robert Wood, as well as the brave men and women who have courageously gone on the record with their accounts of what they witnessed involving crashes of exotic aerial vehicles and unidentified flying objects. Many of these individuals put their livelihoods and very lives on the line in order to share their personal testimonies that are published in this book.

"In the world of UFOs the MJ Documents are considered by many to be the Holy Grail that offers proof UFO crashes have taken place and not just in one or two locations. The MJ Documents are no longer top secret to those who read this book"
