Who is Jitterbug?

Julie Pearce, also known as Jitterbug, is the creator of this UFO Attractor named Project C.A.D.D.E.T. She was born and raised in Central Florida on October 1st, 1980. Later, she moved to Duluth, MN where she continued her education.

She started school at Fond Du Lac Tribal College in Northern Minnesota and decided to follow through with her childhood dream of becoming a doctor. She currently holds an Associates of Art degree and a degree in Chemical Dependency Counseling. She is still a student and is in the process of becoming a Physician. She plans to specialize in Emergency Medicine.

 

While going to school, she runs her own business known as Jitterbug Productions and works at a group home with developmentally disabled adults. In the meantime, she keeps life interesting by skydiving, boxing, doing karate, snowboarding, skiing, urban exploration, rock climbing, kayaking, riding her motorcycle, traveling, and coaching an ice hockey team. 

She has a love for the extreme. Whether that involves a physical activity or a mental task, she thrives on the challenge and the adrenaline that pumps through her veins.

 

She has played the piano for 12 years of her life and composes her own music. She also plays the guitar, the trumpet, and mixes vinyl on a pair of turntables. She enjoys doing black and white photography, doing body piercings, and doing paranormal research and investigation.

There are many words one could use to describe this creative and unique girl, but the one word that describes her best is free spirit. She goes through life at a beat of her own and makes every moment worth it.

 

 

Who is Mike Muckerheide?

While Jitterbug is the actual inventor and curator of Project C.A.D.D.E.T.,  she saw the completion of Mike Muckerheide's vision after his death. Before he died, he had begun working on the UFO Attractor. His intention was to create a machine that would attract UFOs and that he would be able to capture his findings on film. Unfortunately, constructing a frame was all that Mike had the time in his life to do before his death. As to what his original ideas were for the completion of the machine may have died with him. It was shortly after his death that Pearce discovered someone else had been working on a similar contraption. After his death, Pearce was able to contact Mike's son and purchase the frame that would later on become the basis for integrating her own theories and ideas. Rather than just build a machine that could potentially attract UFOs, Pearce decided to expand upon her ideas and integrate Detection and Communication aspects as well. Hence, Project C.A.D.D.E.T. was born!

As for Mike, he lived an exciting life. He was a pioneer in laser technology, who worked building laser systems for both the Government and NASA. He was also responsible for both SEM and GAS payload experiments through NASA. Muckerheide was a brilliant man. Some of his work is even exhibited at the Smithsonian Institution and Mitchell Field Museum. He also holds seven U.S. patents. Sadly enough, he died of cancer on December 22nd, 2003 at the age of 73. He made his years on Earth well worth it though.
