Linda Moulton Howe

American researcher who has investigated the Art's Parts metal samples, cattle mutilation cases and other reported anomalous phenomena, including a 1995 interview with a scientist identified only as Dr Craig McPherson.

Art's Parts metal-sample investigation; cattle mutilation research

On 1995-04-08, Linda Moulton Howe interviewed a man identified as Dr Craig McPherson at the Las Vegas Hilton1 in Las Vegas, Nevada, from 12:24 to 17:13.2 Under a written agreement between the two, the contents of the interview could not be made public.3

Howe is closely associated with Art’s Parts (alleged Roswell metal samples), a set of metal fragments reported to have come from an advanced aerospace vehicle of unknown origin. According to In Plain Sight, the 2019 TTSA SEC disclosure on Art’s Parts purchase recorded that Howe had previously held and studied the samples.4 Howe has said the layered bismuth/magnesium pieces will levitate if exposed to the right magnetic field, an anti-gravity effect she describes as unproven.5 She has also said she sent one of the samples to a scientist at a major midwestern US university, who confirmed it was 99 per cent aluminium.6 Howe’s own website describes one of the pieces as micron-layered bismuth and magnesium zinc taken from the bottom of a wedge-shaped UFO near White Sands, New Mexico, in the late 1940s.7 Howe has said an exotic metals manufacturer in New Jersey told her that layering bismuth and magnesium in this way is not possible in any known industrial process, since the layers will not bond.8 According to In Plain Sight, an unnamed scientist quoted by Howe speculated that waviness in the layers might be a fractal wave pattern, perhaps calculated to resonate with a specific frequency.9 In a 2012 letter to Linda Moulton Howe on the Art’s Parts tests, Harold E. Puthoff said that tests he had carried out on the samples using various fields had produced no anomalous result,10 and that he lacked the equipment to test the sample at a frequency of 4.76 to 5.66 terahertz.11 Journalist Ross Coulthart has suggested that the 1996-11 US Defense Department scientist letter on ‘Art’s Parts’ metal artefact, which reported the results of scientific tests, appeared to be addressed to a Los Angeles-based Hollywood TV show producer and may have involved someone collaborating with Howe or Art Bell.12 Coulthart further suspects the letter was forwarded to Edgar Mitchell by Howe or Bell to keep him briefed, with identifying details about the scientist deleted.13

Howe took a phone call from an anonymous letter writer who explained he was serving in the United States Army and was about to deploy to the Middle East, and who wanted her to know his story in case he did not return.14 The 1978-11-30 US military C-130 lightning crash occurred eighteen years before the writer, later referred to as A Friend (anonymous army sergeant), sent his letters to Bell and Howe.15

Howe has also investigated cattle mutilation cases. Writer Whitley Strieber has recounted that Howe reported finding no blood around the carcass in the 1979 Elsie, Colorado cattle mutilation case, despite the extensive nature of the mutilation.16 Researcher Erik Nanstiel has said that, as in Howe’s work, animals in more recent mutilations are found completely exsanguinated, with certain tissues apparently removed using high-heat instruments such as lasers.17 Nanstiel has also said that big-nosed Greys (extraterrestrial beings), which he links to ancient astronaut theory as engineering emissaries behind the Sumerian gods, are a species Howe discussed in a documentary.18

In an interview, Michael Malin responded to a question from Howe about why new images of Cydonia had taken almost two decades to appear, saying: “all I can say is, jeez, I’m sorry, that’s the reality of the thing."19
