Measurements with a low power pulsed radar in the Hessdalen 2002 camp. Part of this paper directly derives from the Istituto di Radioastronomia Internal Technical Report N. 321 / 02, written by the same authors. The measurements performed in Norway with the radar has been made possible also with a grant from the CIPH.

... in If the distance of the target is greater than the one corresponding to the interpulse time, we would get the echo after the second or third (and so on) pulse has already been transmitted, introducing ambiguity. For instance, in our practical case this ambiguity on the distance measure would be a multiple of 15 Km if the 100µsec was selected (FIG. 3.3). ...

In that phase an ad hoc software will be written exploiting the impressive possibilities offered by the Lab-View package and the related developing environment. At present we use a PICO ADC 200 / 20 double channels 20 Ms/sec oscilloscope. It is connected to the system as visible in FIG. ...

It wasn't possible to see anything in the same point on the sky with binoculars and portable telescopes (the light conditions was about that one visible in In this figure it is clearly visible the total absence of clutter (the fixed echoes from the hills of the valley at the same azimuth are visible in FIG. ...

... Therefore spectra vary according to several parameters and do not constitute a fixed "unchangeable identity card" of these objects (Teodorani, 2008;Warren, 2004). 6. Quite often the light phenomenon presents a radar track (Strand, 1984), and anomalous radar signatures also can be recorded when a luminous phenomenon is not in sight (Montebugnoli et al., 2002). This is very interesting because it might indirectly demonstrate that when the plasmoid is invisible it is also (possibly) still emitting in the infrared wavelengths as low-energy plasma. ...

Anomalous atmospheric light phenomena tend to occur recurrently in several places of our planet. Statistical studies show that a phenomenon's real recurrence area can be identified only after pondering reported cases on the population number and on the diffusion of communication media. The main scientific results that have been obtained so far after explorative instrumented missions have been carried out are presented, including the empirical models that have been set up in order to describe the observed reality. Subsequently, a focused theorization is discussed in order to attack the physical problem concerning the structure and the dynamics of " light balls " and the enigma related to the central force that maintains them in spherical shape. Finally, several important issues are discussed regarding methodology, strategy, tactics and interdisciplinary approaches.

Spherical unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP), of both plasma and solid-like kinds, have often been observed in the world. Several monitoring campaigns have permitted us to know better some structural properties and temporal behaviour of such phenomena. On the basis of what has been observed so far, and considering the deduced constants that characterize the phenomenon, and of the consequent physical working-hypotheses that results, possible dangers to aviation are examined from several point of view of physical science; both natural and non-natural features of these kind of UAP are considered. A systematic instrumented observational plan is proposed, involving both recurrence areas and time flaps of the phenomenon itself.

After presenting the past history of scientific methodology applied to UFO monitoring operations, a new project for an automatic station is presented and discussed. Some engineering issues are also presented to stimulate a pragmatic " problem solving " aptitude. The proposed idea is intended to be a basis of discussion concerning the implementation of a permanent station containing off-the-shelf measurement instruments that, being in function all the time, are able to acquire scientific data on unidentified flying targets, which are then transmitted to investigators located at remote areas. Such an automatic station is intended to be a pilot project for a future network of similar stations scattered throughout the territory. The physical parameters that can be obtained this way are conceptually presented. The main goal is to ascertain what the nature of the UFO phenomenon is and which physics can be extracted from it.

On the basis of the experience of this author, a decade of scientific research on earthlights is amply discussed and pondered from the point of view of instrumental measurements. After an introduction that shows a brief synthesis of what has been done so far, all the different measurement techniques and tactical/strategic procedures that have been used so far or that are planned for the near future are discussed in detail. Constructive criticism on the gaps that emerged from this research is punctually pointed out. New procedural ideas are widely proposed and scientifically motivated in order to improve this research and to stimulate researchers on this field in order to search for an optimum common protocol. http://www.itacomm.net/PH/2009_Teodorani.pdf
