On May 29, 2026, Dr. Michael Salla — the Hawaii-based founder of Exopolitics.org and one of the most prolific figures in the UFO disclosure media ecosystem — received a text message. According to Salla's own account, published on his website and later amplified through ufos-disclosure.blogspot.com, the message came from a source he described as someone he had known for several years. That source claimed to have twice met a woman who identified herself as Amy Eskridge — an antigravity researcher who, by public record, died in June 2022 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound in Huntsville, Alabama.
The woman, whoever she was, allegedly told this unnamed source that beneath Green Mountain — an unremarkable wooded ridge on the western edge of Huntsville, sitting near Redstone Arsenal and NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center — there is a functioning underground spaceport. Nordic extraterrestrials, she supposedly said, are training international military pilots there. The facility is overseen by Eskridge herself, who is very much alive and who wants the world to know about four additional fundamental forces of nature essential to antigravity propulsion, stargates, and consciousness transfer.
Nordic extraterrestrials, she supposedly said, are training international military pilots there.
Salla, to his partial credit, acknowledged three possible interpretations: the information is genuine, it is part of a psychological operation, or it was wholly fabricated by his source. He did not say which he believed. What he did was publish it, and then, in a July 2026 episode of Exopolitics Today, sit down with Michael, the host of a podcast called Conflict Radio, who claims to have met Eskridge himself in a late-night encounter he does not describe in verifiable detail.
This is the story behind the story: not whether there is a spaceport under Green Mountain, but how a cascade of unverifiable claims travels through an interconnected web of low-credibility platforms and accumulates the appearance of corroboration through sheer repetition.
The Network Behind the Narrative
The Green Mountain story did not emerge in isolation. It arrived embedded in a media ecosystem that, over the past several months, has been producing claims at a remarkable rate — almost none of which are traceable to primary source documents or official statements.
The ufos-disclosure.blogspot.com site, which is the primary aggregation point for this story, carries no named editorial staff and operates at what news organizations would classify as tier 4 credibility — a platform that republishes and reframes content without independent verification. Virtually every significant claim in the Green Mountain narrative originates from two nodes: Salla's Exopolitics platform and Conflict Radio's Michael, whose full name has not been published in any of the available material. That anonymity matters. A central witness in an extraordinary claim who cannot be named is not a source — he is a variable.
Salla introduced Tony Rodrigues into the picture, describing a remote-viewing session in which three independent viewers allegedly described an underground base with extraterrestrial technology, overseen by a dark-haired woman. Rodrigues, a recurring guest on Salla's Exopolitics Today podcast, has described experiences in remote viewing programs dating to childhood. The remote-viewing claim arrives with its own unresolved tension: one characterization in the available material frames remote viewing as involving psychic espionage programs, while separately, the CIA's declassified Project Stargate records establish that the agency did run a real remote viewing program to test whether extrasensory perception could yield intelligence on distant targets. These are not the same claim, and collapsing them together — as the Exopolitics framing tends to do — obscures rather than illuminates.
There is also the question of Amy Eskridge's actual history. Salla's own June 2026 commentary notes that she had publicly identified herself as an antigravity researcher and head of the Institute for Exotic Science in Huntsville. She had, according to his account, described receiving threats related to her research before her death. She appears on a circulating list of eleven or more scientists described as missing or dead under suspicious circumstances — a list that has itself never been sourced to a verifiable compiler or methodology. The official record says she died. The claim in this story says she did not. No documentation has been provided for either the original death record or the counter-claim that she is alive.

The 1950s element is the one thread that gestures toward something checkable. Salla's framing raises the question of whether an abandoned government plan to build a hardened underground facility — a so-called mini-Pentagon — beneath Green Mountain was not, in fact, abandoned, but continued as a classified project. That is a meaningful historical question. Redstone Arsenal's Cold War-era infrastructure history is documented; the Army's interest in hardened command facilities during that period is not in dispute. But no document has been produced — in this coverage, in prior coverage, or in any declassified archive available to this reporter — confirming that a Green Mountain underground facility was built, planned in detail, or subsequently converted into whatever is now being described.
What the Tier-1 Record Actually Shows
Against this backdrop of accumulating unverifiable claims, there is one primary source document in the available record worth examining on its own terms: the CIA UAP D001 Intelligence Information Report, declassified and released through the Department of War's DVIDS site, dated to the 1973-1977 period and sourced to a former Soviet citizen who worked at the Sary Shagan Weapons Testing Range in the USSR.
The document is real, reviewed by this reporter, and describes something modest: a source who, on one evening in late summer 1973, stepped outside during a televised Canada-USSR sporting event and observed a bright green circular object in the sky west of Site 7 at the range. The object widened into concentric green circles and then disappeared within minutes. There was no sound. The source had no opinion as to what it was. The CIA's field comment notes that the source could not provide further details, and that there were no resultant rumors at the facility.
This is a sober, carefully caveated human intelligence report. It does not describe a base. It does not describe technology. It describes a single sighting of an unexplained phenomenon by a credible-enough source that the CIA collected and preserved the account. It is the kind of document the disclosure movement rightly points to when arguing that governments have long tracked anomalous phenomena — but it is a very long distance from that document to a claim about a functioning spaceport in Alabama.
Elsewhere in the declassified record, Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet — former Oceanographer of the Navy and former head of NOAA — has written a white paper for the Sol Foundation titled Beneath the Surface, asserting that the Department of Defense holds a classified Range Fouler folder containing sensor data of unidentified submerged objects interacting with U.S. nuclear submarines in the Santa Catalina Basin off Southern California. Gallaudet is a named, credentialed figure making a specific, falsifiable claim about a specific document held by a specific agency. His assertion has not been officially confirmed, but it is structurally different from everything surrounding the Green Mountain story — it names an institution, a document category, and a geographic location, and it comes from someone willing to attach his name and rank to it.
The Green Mountain narrative has none of that architecture.

The Pattern, Stated Once
What is visible here is a specific mode of claim-making that has become common in UAP-adjacent media: a named researcher (Salla) receives secondhand information from an unnamed source, adds a layer of analytical credibility by discussing multiple interpretive scenarios, then pairs the story with a remote-viewing session conducted by a recurring program guest (Rodrigues), and publishes the composite through a platform (Exopolitics, then ufos-disclosure.blogspot.com) that treats the act of raising the question as equivalent to establishing the question's legitimacy. A separate anonymous podcast host (Michael of Conflict Radio) then becomes a corroborating witness — not because his account has been independently verified, but because his account exists and has been cited.
This is not how corroboration works. It is how the appearance of corroboration is manufactured from a single original source whose identity and credibility cannot be assessed.
None of this means the underlying question — whether any classified facility exists beneath or near Green Mountain — is inherently absurd. Huntsville's role in U.S. defense and space history is substantial. Redstone Arsenal and Marshall Space Flight Center represent exactly the kind of institutional infrastructure around which classified programs have historically clustered. The Cold War-era interest in hardened underground facilities is documented nationally. These are legitimate contextual facts. They do not, however, constitute evidence for the specific claims being made.
The contradictions in the available material are not minor. The claim that Amy Eskridge is alive and leading an underground research program contradicts the public record of her death. The claim that the Venezuela uranium removal was cover for the extraction of ancient technology contradicts — or at minimum exists in unresolved tension with — the straightforward U.S. Department of Energy account of successful uranium removal. The framing of the UAP Science Advisory Council as lacking a political scientist coexists in the same material with the acknowledgment that it features figures like Harvard astronomer Avi Loeb. These tensions are not engaged by the sources producing this content; they are papered over by the pace of new claims.
What would change the picture is narrow and specific: a verifiable death record for Amy Eskridge, cross-referenced against the claimed encounters; any declassified or leaked document referencing a Cold War-era hardened facility at Green Mountain specifically; or an on-record statement from Redstone Arsenal or NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center addressing the underground facility claims directly. Absent any of those, the peaceful lake at Green Mountain's summit remains exactly what the public record shows it to be — a lake at the top of a hill in Alabama, and nothing more provable than that.
