Initial data
History captain James cook entered the literature of UFOlogy thanks to the care of English eccentric Brinsley Le Poer, count Clancarty, who reported it in the "Review of the flying saucers" in 1958. Later it was picked up by journalist paranormalist John a Tr who loved this kind of historic, but no serious UFO researcher has not published it as a genuine meeting with aliens.
The fact that the American so-called "contactee" George Adamski made the followers far more than is commonly believed. In the fifties, almost always making up stories of their visits to "space people" with any planet.
The story of cook, as well as other similar stories, obviously, do not inspire confidence among serious ufologists of the time. Thus, the almost forgotten, he survived to our days as "example" in the so-called "skeptical" literature on UFOs, are intended to show what must be a stupid UFO and alien encounters, as well as remains "an example" to illustrate the strange thesis.
James cook, a resident of Runcorn, Cheshire, England, has reported on the alleged observation of flying saucers.
His story is that there are, according to some sources, he was seen arriving space ship in blinding light, which was floating several inches above ground level at a distance of about 20 meters or less.
Camera changed the color from blue to white, then blue, then dark red. From that saucer emerged a slope or stairs with balustrade, and the voice bade him enter, jumping over the rail but not touching it, because the ground was wet from the rain. Cook, scared, willing to do that, so this case is not "the first alien abduction in England", as thought by some authors.
Inside the ship, there was great light, no shadows, coming from everywhere simultaneously, with no apparent source. He was ordered to undress, he did it willingly, he was then asked to stick their noses in a kind of plastic suit.
As usual in such stories, these inhabitants of a flying saucer taking him on a journey with a saucer to their planet of origin, "Sadiku" revolving around another star or another galaxy (depending on UFO sources). He visits Sadik, describing its vegetation as yellow, not green, and the inhabitants are hermaphrodites, but not bisexual, as will be reported later.
"Sodicom" control Wise Senior, Master, and, as it should be, Cooke would come back from his visit with the doctrine that it is necessary to disseminate among earthlings:
"The inhabitants of your planet will upset the balance if they continue to use force instead of harmony. Warn them of the danger."
Back home 45 hours after his departure for Sadik, cook thought that his story sounds more believable, because he forgot to jump over the ramp of the saucer in accordance with the request during landing, which caused him to have electric shock: indeed, these flying saucers function by electrifying the air, and that, moreover, the reason why they do not operate in wet weather and why you should not touch the ramp when the air is damp (however, maybe they should have thought about the isolation of the rail if they are wise?). As physiological evidence, he showed the burns it caused him.
Cooke then created "the Church of Aquarius", a UFO cult with his Church in Runcorn. He sat there as the messenger and Ambassador of the space people Sondika getting through telepathy their words of wisdom about the world to the audience (which John keel said, so many of them that he had to open the city's second Church).
It is argued that this UFO cult continued there ten years, and that Cooke "mysteriously disappeared", according to some sources, or about him and just forgot because of public interest in the "contactees" waned in the late sixties.

Original news
The story of James Cooke entered in ufology literature by the good care of English eccentric Brinsley Le Poer Trench, Earl of Clancarty, who reported about it in the Flying Saucer Review in 1958. It was picked up later by journalist/paranormalist John Keel who loved this kind of twaddles; but no serious ufologist put it forth as an authentic encounter with extraterrestrials. The fact is that the American so-called “contactee” George Adamski had made followers, and much more people than it is generally thought, in the Fifties, also invented stories of their visits of some home planet of “space men”, almost invariably bringing back an assuaging message of universal peace and warnings in connection with the madness of the men. Cooke’s story, like quantity of similar stories, obviously and with reasons, was not believed by the serious ufologists of his time; thus, almost forgotten, it survives nowadays as an “example” in the so-called “skeptic” UFO literature, aimed at pointing how silly ufology and extraterrestrial encounters are supposed to be, and also remains as a “case” to illustrate weird thesis of the Keel/Vallée school of though, which asks to view it not just as a then fashionable fable, or attempt at getting publicity, or imaginary starting point for UFO cults, but as “interventions” of some generally undefined “superior” or “evil” earthly intelligence of some parallel world or other realm, supposed to “manipulate” the very fabric or reality. James Cooke, a resident of Runcorn, Cheshire, England, had already told several alleged flying saucers sightings, when he became part of the “contactee” crowd by claiming that on September 6, 1957, he received, by telepathy, the injunction to go to the top of the hill of Runcorn, which was opposite the city of the same name, and said he did just this, in the middle of the night, 02:15 a.m. on September 7, 1957.
His history is that there, he saw a spaceship in blinding light arriving, coming to hover a few inches above ground-level at some 20 meters in front of him, or less, according to certain sources. The apparatus changed colors from blue to white, then blue again, then dark red. A slope or staircase with balustrade emerged from this saucer, and a voice told him to enter, by jumping over the ramp without touching it, for the ground was wet of rain. Cooke, hardly startled, willingly did so, thus this case is not “the first alien abduction in England” that some writers thought it was. Inside the craft, a strong light reigns, without shade, coming from everywhere at the same time, with no visible source. He is commanded to strip himself naked, does so readily, then asked to slip into a kind of plastic suit. He then went into another spaceship that had to be there somewhere, and inside, met a crew of more than 20 men of space, similar to the men, but much taller since 2.10 meters in height, with well-built bodies, black hair, blue uniforms. As usually in such stories, these people take him along in a saucer trip towards their planet of origin, “Zomdic”, orbiting another star or another galaxy, depending on ufological sources. He visits Zomdic, describing its vegetation as yellow instead of green, and the residents hermaphrodites – not bisexual as it will be reported later. “Zomdic” is governed by Wise Seniors, a Master, and as it should be, Cooke would come back from his visit with a teaching to propagate to Earthlings: “The inhabitants of your planet will upset the balance if they persist in using force instead of harmony. Warn them of the danger.” Brought back home 45 hours after his departure for Zomdic, Cooke thought to make his story sound more true to specify than he forgot to jump over the saucer’s ramp as requested when boarding, which caused him an electric shock: indeed the vessels of Zomdic function by electrifying the air, and this is besides the reason why they do not function well in wet weather and why your are not supposed to touch the ramp when the air is damp – Zomdiciens could however think of insulating the ramp, if they are so wise. As a physiological proof, he claimed that others saw the burns that this caused on him.
A little dubitative, he indicated, as for the chance of success, or perhaps as of the relevance or the interest of the extraterrestrials’ preaching, reassured by the space man, Cooke then set up “The Church of Aquarius”, a UFO cult having its Church in Runcorn. He sat there as a messenger and ambassador of the space men of Zomdic, receiving by telepathy their wise words of peace for the benefit of an audience about which John Keel told it was so numerous that he had to open a second Church in the city, the story not specifying if he was gifted of bilocation to sit there too. It is claimed that this UFO cult lasted ten years there, and that Cooke “disappeared” in a puff of mystery according to certain sources, or quite simply made himself forgotten – the public interest in the “contactees” had waned at the end of the Sixties, and it was certainly a wise inspiration of his to “disappear” from public view.

Deliberate falsification
This version includes any falsifications that imitate unexplained phenomena both from the outside: practical jokes, flash mobs, fake news, witness fraud, staging, etc.
There are many ways to make something similar to a ghost or a flying saucer from improvised materials, without using video and photomontage.
Many homemade things made for the sake of a joke, a practical joke or a direct imitation of a mystical being or event can be taken as unexplained not only in photos and videos, but also in reality.
