Sheehan Shows Examples of Alleged NHI Script

Back in 2012, I made a post titled "Hieroglyphic-Type Symbols," in which I shared hieroglyphic-like symbols that have reportedly been seen on or inside UFOs. I mentioned Daniel Sheehan, an attorney who, while working on a special project with Congress in 1977, claimed to have seen photographs of what he believed to be an extraterrestrial spacecraft. In one of the photographs, Sheehan noticed hieroglyphic-type symbols on the outside of the craft. He secretly wrote down these symbols on the back of his notepad, successfully getting it past the guards at The James Madison Memorial Building. At the time I made the post, I was not able to find a picture of the symbols that Sheehan wrote in his notebook. To my knowledge, he had not yet shared them.

Now, 12 years later, in 2024, I noticed I had received a comment about this post asking me to please share if I ever happened to come across Sheehan's symbols. This prompted me to look into it again. I had been wondering about these symbols for years and questioning how is it that Sheehan keeps mentioning them yet never sharing with the public. Well, there has been an update!

A brief search led me to this recent post on Reddit by a user named DaZipp. 

They posted, quote: "Hopefully I'm not going behind Danny's back by posting this picture.

I am taking the New Paradigm Institute's ET certificate program right now, and during the first lecture, he mentioned the story which was talked about on Coulthart's new NewsNation show. I asked if we were able to see what the NHI-script looked like which was written on the craft that he saw, and Danny drew them for us in a Q&A session after his lecture.

As someone personally interested in language and scripts of historical cultures, they do look quite unique to me, and further, the simplicity of the characters is quite interesting."

The post also included this screenshot which looks like Sheehan holding up a piece of paper with the symbols.

To fact check, I found this picture of Sheehan in which he appears to be wearing the same tie. So, it seems that it is Sheehan and the Reddit post and picture above are looking credible. 

There was still a lot of confusing fuss on Reddit that I had trouble deciphering since I have been out of the UFO community loop for some time, but it seems that people are remaining skeptical about Sheehan's claims, and I think I know why. It's been years, as I mentioned, since I first posted about his story, and now, years later, it appears that Sheehan still has never shown the original notebook in which he claims to have recorded these symbols. You would think he had the notebook in a very special place or that he would still be in possession of it today and able to share it. Even a scan or photograph of the notebook would suffice. This is why people have been so skeptical. Where is the notebook to corroborate the story? I hadn't delved into searching if Sheehan has ever mentioned why he hasn't shared the actual notebook yet, but that seems to be the ongoing mystery here. And the mystery thickens. 

Through Reddit, I also found this twitter post where Sheehan was on a podcast in what appears to have been 2021. Unfortunately, a link to that podcast video reveals the video is private. One Reddit user said they saw the video, however, they could’t find the part where the notebook is shown. Maybe that part was edited out for the public version. 🤔 

That looks like the actual notebook in the screenshot above…except, I discovered THIS Reddit post from around 2020 that says the original notebook was destroyed in an office flood? 😱 This was mentioned in an interview with Sheehan that appeared in a book first published in 2019. If this is true, that would mean the notebook Sheehan is holding in the podcast picture from 2021 couldn’t be the original. 

Sheehan’s story sounds credible and seeing the two replicas of the symbols he drew together, it appears he still remembers what the symbols looked like, but the confusion behind what’s going on with the original notebook is strange to say the least. If he really did lose the notebook in an office flood, that’s heartbreaking. I’d be sleeping with the notebook under my pillow every night and wouldn’t let it out of my sight. But, that’s me.
