Publisher: S.U.F.O.I. SKANDINAVISK UFO INFORMATION
Country: Denmark
Language: Danish

This issue of "ufo nyt" delves into significant developments and discussions surrounding UFO research, with a particular focus on the controversial "Colorado Project" in the United States and the official stance of the Soviet Union on the phenomenon. The magazine critically examines the scientific and political implications of these investigations.

The Colorado Project: A Critical Examination

The lead article, "More Light on the Colorado Project," scrutinizes the contract between the US Air Force and the University of Colorado for a UFO investigation. The article highlights several key points from the contract, including its official start date of November 1, 1966, and the funding source. It details the project's stated purpose: a systematic investigation of the physical, psychological, and social phenomena associated with reported sightings of unidentified flying objects (UFOs).

NICAP (National Investigations Committee On Aerial Phenomena) provides commentary throughout the article, questioning the project's methodology and potential biases. NICAP expresses skepticism about the project's focus on "social phenomena" and the psychological reactions of witnesses, suggesting that the project might be more interested in explaining away UFOs rather than investigating them objectively. The article notes that the project's definition of UFOs in AFR 80-17 was broadened to include "any aerial phenomenon or object that is unknown or occurs beyond the usual for the observer."

The "Purpose" section of the project proposal emphasizes a "thorough investigation of the physical characteristics of UFOs," but also acknowledges the expectation of visual and subjective impressions. NICAP points out that a psychological study of UFO witnesses has been repeatedly recommended by Air Force spokesmen, including Dr. J. Allen Hynek, but questions whether this is the primary goal or a means to dismiss reports.

The article discusses the project's proposal to conduct "experimental and test situations" to simulate physical phenomena and gather data on human reactions. NICAP expresses concern that such tests might not accurately replicate real-world UFO encounters and that the project might be biased towards atmospheric explanations.

A significant point of contention is the project's publication plan, which includes provisions for rapid dissemination of findings by project scientists. NICAP interprets this as a potential attempt to preemptively shape public opinion, especially if the conclusions are negative. The article quotes Dr. Edward U. Condon, the project's scientific leader, expressing skepticism about the need for such studies, suggesting that the 21st century might view them with amusement.

NICAP also raises concerns about the project's potential for "camouflage," suggesting that the inclusion of specific clauses might indicate a predetermined negative conclusion. However, NICAP asserts that its members have worked with many of the project's scientists and believe they would not agree to a secret, predetermined outcome.

The project was initially set to conclude on January 31, 1968, but received a five-month extension, increasing its budget to $523,000. The final report is expected to be reviewed by the National Academy of Sciences and the Air Force's Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) before its potential release in December 1968 or later.

UFO-feber in the Soviet Union

The article "UFO-fever in the Soviet Union" reports on the official Soviet stance regarding UFOs, as published in the party organ "Pravda." According to "Pravda," the scientific community, specifically the Academy of Sciences' department for general and applied physics, has concluded that UFO reports are "anti-scientific sensations and propaganda." The observed objects are stated to be of "well-known origin."

This official position appears to be a shift from earlier discussions, where some Soviet researchers reportedly acknowledged the possibility of UFOs. The article mentions that a special committee was formed to investigate UFO phenomena and gather information, with calls for public reports. However, "Pravda" has now seemingly put an end to this open discussion, suggesting that the matter is closed and that UFOs are not real.

The issue also touches upon a "NATO balloon" observed over Bulgaria, which "Pravda" identified as a "spy balloon" deployed by NATO intelligence.

USA - Soviet Union Cooperation?

A section titled "USA - Soviet Union Cooperation?" discusses the potential for the Colorado Project to exchange information and technical methods with Russian researchers. Roscoe Drummond, a journalist, interviewed Dr. Condon about the Soviet Union's large-scale UFO investigation program. Dr. Condon expressed a desire for a "complete exchange of data" and a "close working relationship" with Soviet scientists.

Subscription and Binding Information

The magazine includes information about subscribing to "UFO-NYT" and offers a binding service for back issues. It details the cost of binding and provides the address for sending issues to Frank Lerbæk in Svendborg.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the critical analysis of official UFO investigations, particularly the US Air Force-funded Colorado Project. The magazine, through its own commentary and the inclusion of NICAP's perspectives, adopts a skeptical stance towards government-sponsored research that appears to prioritize debunking or explaining away UFO phenomena rather than conducting impartial scientific inquiry. There is a clear emphasis on the importance of transparency, objectivity, and rigorous scientific methodology in UFO research. The issue also highlights the international dimension of UFO interest, with reports on the Soviet Union's official denial of UFOs and the potential for US-Soviet collaboration, suggesting that the UFO phenomenon is a global concern that transcends political divides. The editorial stance is one of advocating for genuine, open-minded scientific investigation, free from political or institutional pressures.

This issue of UFO-NYT, spanning multiple editions from late 1967 to early 1968, presents a collection of articles on UFO sightings, astronomical phenomena, and scientific theories. The magazine's content ranges from personal accounts of alleged encounters to detailed scientific discussions about space exploration and the possibility of extraterrestrial life.

Han ser flyvende tallerkener overalt på gader og veje

This article reports on Ola Engdahl Jensen, a 32-year-old emigrant from Fredericia living in Australia. He writes to his parents detailing numerous sightings of flying saucers. Jensen claims these objects are very active, landing close to cars and disappearing when approached. He suggests that both the police and the air force are aware of and possibly involved with these craft. His mother, Fru Ruth Ravn, vouches for his credibility, stating he would not invent such stories.

Signaler fra Venus

This piece discusses an experiment conducted by physicists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. They directed short radio waves towards Venus and Mercury when the planets were behind the sun. The goal was to observe the 'echo' of these signals as they passed close to the sun. The experiment aimed to test Einstein's theory of relativity, which posits that gravity can slow down light and radio waves. The results confirmed Einstein's prediction, much to the slight disappointment of the physicists who hoped to prove him wrong after 52 years of attempts. The article cites Dr. Irwin Shapiro, the leader of the physics team, and is attributed to Politiken.

Angrebet af marsmænd

This report details an alleged incident on Terceira island in the Azores. An officer, Serafim Vieira Sebastiao, claims he was attacked by the crew of a flying saucer. He described the object as being very close to the ground. When he went to investigate, a gas emitted from the craft knocked him unconscious. A colleague he warned was skeptical, suggesting it might have been a meteorological balloon from a nearby garrison that had become charged with static electricity. However, Sebastiao maintains his account.

Eksperiment på Månen

This article from Fyns Stiftstidende reports on a unique experiment conducted by American space technicians using the 'Surveyor V' probe on the Moon. For the first time, rockets on a lunar-based spacecraft were ignited. The purpose was to study how the lunar surface would react to the launch of future manned spacecraft from the Moon. The experiment, which lasted half a second, was considered risky due to the probe's position on a slope. The onboard cameras captured images of the lunar surface, with results expected to be known after the data is transmitted back to Earth.

San Marco C.

This brief mention refers to a joint American-Italian venture named San Marco C., dedicated to launching scientific instrument-equipped satellites from a floating platform off the coast of Kenya. Two successful launches are noted: December 15, 1964, and April 26, 1967. A third launch, San Marco III, was planned for 1969 or 1970, with the objective of studying the atmosphere at an altitude of approximately 200 km above the equator.

Brusebade i rummet

This short piece addresses the challenge of providing showers for astronauts traveling to the Moon or other distant locations. It highlights the peculiar behavior of water in a zero-gravity environment, where it acts like syrup and needs to be scraped off. The solution proposed is a 'telephone shower' requiring 5 kg of pressure. The article concludes by posing the practical problem of fitting such a facility into the limited space of a spacecraft.

En amerikansk og en russisk astronom diskuterer fremmed liv

Authored by Alex Saunders, this article summarizes a literary collaboration between American Dr. Carl Sagan (Harvard University and Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory) and Russian Academician Joseph Shmuelovich Shklovskii (Sternberg Astronomical Institute). Despite never meeting in person, they co-authored a book titled "Intelligent Life in the Universe." The article is primarily based on John Davy's review in Globe Magazine. It explores the prospects for life on other planets, noting the harsh conditions on Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. The authors consider the possibility of life from the perspective of a Martian astronomer observing Earth, who might view oxygen as a deadly gas. They also discuss how meteorological satellites like Tiros and Nimbus, with their high-resolution images, could potentially reveal signs of life, such as agricultural patterns or geological formations. Sagan and his colleagues identified three features that could indicate life on Earth: a rectangular clearing in Ontario, a section of Interstate Highway 40 in Tennessee, and a cloud formation or jet contrail in Davis Strait, along with a straight coastal feature in Morocco. The article posits that if such advanced civilizations exist, interstellar communication might be possible, though the vast distances involved present a significant temporal challenge.

Indicier for den manglende planet

Authored by Phillip Harrison, this article discusses the hypothesis of a missing planet between Mars and Jupiter, often referred to as the 'asteroid belt.' Astronomers believe this planet, approximately two-thirds the size of Earth, was either destroyed during formation or exploded. The article examines the asteroid belt's position within the 'temperature zone' for life, suggesting that such a planet might have experienced constant environmental fluctuations. It details the characteristics of Mars and Jupiter, noting Mars' thin atmosphere and Jupiter's gaseous composition and extreme temperatures. The author also touches upon the 'channels' on Mars, suggesting they are not man-made. The article mentions Mars' moons, Deimos and Phobos, as potential fragments of this missing planet. It then delves into Bode's Law, a mathematical sequence that predicted planetary distances and further supported the idea of a gap between Mars and Jupiter. The discovery of Ceres by Giuseppe Piazzi in 1801 is highlighted, followed by the identification of numerous other asteroids. The article presents a graphical demonstration supporting the missing planet theory, showing a discrepancy in planetary distances that is resolved by assuming an additional planet. Finally, it explores theories regarding the origin of the asteroid belt, including the 'nebula hypothesis,' which suggests the solar system formed from a rotating cloud of gas and dust, with planets and satellites forming from smaller 'protoplanets.' The article concludes by noting that asteroids and meteors may be remnants of this lost planet.

MÅNENYT

This short section features a photograph taken by the Surveyor 7 probe, showing the lunar terrain near its landing site, 18 miles north of the Tycho crater. The horizon is about 10 miles away, and a crater is visible just 5.5 meters from the camera.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue of UFO-NYT are the investigation of unidentified flying objects, the exploration of space, and the scientific search for extraterrestrial life. The magazine presents a blend of anecdotal evidence and scientific inquiry, often leaning towards the speculative and the unexplained. The editorial stance appears to be one of open-mindedness towards UFO phenomena and a keen interest in astronomical discoveries, encouraging readers to consider possibilities beyond conventional understanding. The inclusion of detailed scientific articles alongside personal accounts suggests an aim to bridge the gap between popular fascination with UFOs and established scientific research.

This issue of UFO-NYT, identified as issue 111, focuses heavily on the exploration of the Moon, alongside reports of UFO sightings and phenomena. The cover prominently features the headline "Udforskningen af MÅNEN" (Exploration of the MOON) accompanied by a black and white photograph of the lunar surface. The magazine also includes articles on scientific discussions about phenomena on the Moon and a detailed account of a significant UFO event in Argentina.

The Moon's Exploration

The magazine begins by discussing the ongoing space race, with both the USA and the Soviet Union aiming to land humans on the Moon. Preparations involve numerous unmanned probes and satellites. The article details the purposes of these missions: studying space around the Moon, investigating surface conditions, and mapping the near and far sides.

Space Around the Moon

A key finding is the Moon's extremely weak magnetic field, which prevents the formation of a radiation belt. Unlike Earth, which has a strong magnetic field creating the Van Allen belt, the Moon lacks this protective shield. Lunar satellites have also revealed that the Moon is more spherical than previously thought, contrary to expectations of a significantly egg-shaped body due to Earth's tidal forces.

Lunar Surface Conditions

Results from automated stations indicate the lunar surface is stable enough to support manned spacecraft. The consistency is described as similar to wet sand, a phenomenon attributed to the vacuum. Chemical analysis of the lunar 'seas' reveals a composition rich in silicon and oxygen, comparable to Earth's crust. The highlands are believed to be composed of granite. The Moon's atmosphere is extremely thin, less than one-millionth of Earth's, and it lacks an ionosphere.

The Moon's Far Side

Mapping of the Moon's far side revealed a striking absence of the large, flat plains found on the near side. Instead, it is almost entirely covered by craters. Only two small 'seas', Mare Moscovience and Mare Orientale, have been identified. However, the density of craters per square kilometer is similar on both sides.

Lunar Phenomena: Glowing Spots

A significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to the phenomenon of unexplained lights or glows observed on the Moon. Over 100 instances have been reported over six years, with colors ranging from red to blue and yellow. These observations, once met with skepticism, have gained more attention since a Soviet astronomer reported gas eruptions in the Alphonsus crater in 1958-1959. Later, red glows were observed near the Aristarchus crater. NASA's Project Moon-Blink was established to monitor these events using a network of specially equipped stations.

Several hypotheses are explored for these phenomena. One suggests that lightning-like discharges within dust and gas clouds from the Moon's interior could produce radio emissions. Another theory posits that the extreme temperature fluctuations between day and night cause expansion and contraction of lunar material, potentially releasing trapped gases. Luminescence, where lunar material absorbs solar energy and re-emits it as visible light, is also considered. The possibility of high-energy electrons from Earth's magnetotail impacting the lunar surface is also discussed.

The "Crazy Night" in Argentina

The magazine reports on a widespread UFO sighting event that occurred in Argentina on the night of June 24-25. Numerous reports describe various aerial objects, including luminous cigars, spheres, and disk-shaped craft, moving at high speeds and exhibiting unusual behaviors. The event also affected radio and television broadcasts in the region.

The Marliens Case

A detailed investigation into a mysterious ground trace found in Marliens, France, on May 10, 1967, is presented. The trace, located in a clover field, formed a star-like pattern with six furrows and a central bowl. The soil within the affected area was unusually dry and covered with a fine violet powder. Analysis of this powder revealed it had a sharp taste. The incident involved police officers and military personnel, who ruled out conventional explanations such as aircraft landings or missile impacts. The soil was found to be compacted and 'burnt' without heat, and all moisture was absent within an 8-meter radius.

Dr. Hynek's Perspective

Dr. Allen J. Hynek, an astronomer known for his initial skepticism towards UFOs, shares his evolving views. After years of investigation, he admits that while he cannot explain all phenomena, he acknowledges the complexity of the subject. He notes that UFO reports are often dismissed due to a lack of systematic investigation, comparing it to how drug-related cases are handled. Hynek suggests a two-pronged approach for scientific investigation: a passive method involving committees to classify and explain reports, and an active method using cameras and measuring equipment for direct observation.

Hynek also discusses the challenges of accepting the possibility of extraterrestrial visitors based on classical physics. He proposes that future research should focus on the 'interstellar hypothesis,' possibly linked to a 'main base on Mars.' He also touches upon the hypothesis that Mars's moons might be large interstellar spacecraft.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue of UFO-NYT demonstrates a clear interest in both scientific space exploration and unexplained aerial phenomena. The magazine aims to present factual information from space missions while also investigating and reporting on UFO sightings and related mysteries. The editorial stance appears to be one of open-minded inquiry, encouraging scientific investigation while acknowledging the existence of phenomena that defy easy explanation. The publication seems to serve as a platform for sharing information and hypotheses within the UFO community, bridging the gap between established science and more speculative theories.

This issue of UFO-NYT, dated September 1967, focuses heavily on the Marliens incident, a complex case involving a landing trace with unusual physical characteristics. The magazine also compiles several other UFO sighting reports from around the world.

Marliens Incident: A Detailed Investigation

The central article, "Mareridt med den nærgående tallerken" (Nightmare with the Approaching Saucer), delves into the Marliens case, which began with the discovery of a landing trace on a clover field. The trace featured a central mark and surrounding cylindrical holes, some up to a meter deep. Initial reports described the holes as having hemispherical indentations at the bottom, with smaller holes angling into the ground.

Physical Evidence and Analysis

Investigator Jean Cerles and his team, along with contributions from Charles Carreau, Jean-Claude Widmer, and others, conducted a thorough examination. The holes were noted for their precise geometric form and smooth, vertical walls. A key finding was the presence of a violet powder, later identified as small quartz crystals that had undergone partial melting at temperatures exceeding 1500°C. This was puzzling because the surrounding vegetation and soil showed no signs of being exposed to such high temperatures, indicating the melting likely occurred elsewhere.

Hypotheses and Challenges

Several hypotheses were explored to explain the formation of the holes. One theory suggested they were created by a telescopic device within the landing object. However, the depth of the holes and the precise angles of the smaller bores posed significant mechanical challenges for such a device. The idea of flexible, rotating boring tools was also considered, with the flat stones found at the bottom of the holes possibly halting the boring process. The possibility of laser or other advanced methods was also raised.

The investigation highlighted the paradoxical nature of the Marliens trace: it exhibited a high degree of order and geometric precision (in the holes) alongside an apparent lack of logical arrangement in the overall pattern. The absence of any other tracks, such as footprints or tire marks, further deepened the mystery.

Soil Analysis and Electromagnetic Fields

Further analysis by chemical engineer F.-R. de Brem revealed that soil samples from the trace absorbed moisture more slowly than control samples, suggesting a possible alteration of the soil's properties. The possibility of a variable electromagnetic field influencing the quartz crystals was also discussed as a potential explanation for their partial melting.

Expert Opinions and Remaining Mysteries

Jean Cerles expressed his bewilderment, describing the case as the strangest he had encountered in 12 years. He acknowledged that the phenomenon surpassed current understanding, leaving open the possibility of a UFO landing or something entirely different. The complexity and unusual nature of the Marliens case were emphasized, with the conclusion that the mystery had only deepened with the new findings.

Global UFO Sightings Reports

This issue also compiles a series of UFO sighting reports from various locations:

• Trinidade, Brazil (January 16, 1958): Over 100 people aboard the ship 'Almirante Saldanha' observed a Saturn-shaped object.
• Montevideo, Uruguay (February 27, 1967): The leader of the Antarés observatory confirmed UFO sightings and took 21 color photos.
• Vilhelmina, Sweden (March 9, 1967): A family reported observing two flying saucers, one estimated to be 30-40 meters in diameter.
• Lima, Peru (March 10, 1967): Hundreds of people witnessed unidentified flying objects performing maneuvers at low altitude, described as large and silver.
• Porto Alegre, Brazil (March 24, 1967): Air captains reported a strange, luminous object that accompanied their flight, exhibiting high speed and pulsing lights.
• Mexico City, Mexico (March 26, 1967): An enormous UFO landed near Iguala, emitting a powerful light before taking off.
• Mercala, Mexico (March 27, 1967): A cigar-shaped UFO reportedly fell on a hill, causing ground tremors.
• Madrid, Spain (March 13, 1967): Flying saucers were observed for six hours, flying in circles.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the detailed analysis of physical evidence from alleged UFO landings, the challenges of explaining these phenomena with conventional science, and the compilation of numerous witness testimonies from around the globe. The editorial stance appears to be one of serious inquiry, acknowledging the baffling nature of the cases and the limitations of current scientific understanding, while remaining open to extraordinary explanations. The magazine emphasizes the importance of thorough investigation and reporting, even when faced with profound mysteries.

Title: UFO-NYT
Issue: 131-137
Date: March 1968
Document Type: Magazine Issue

This issue of UFO-NYT presents a compilation of UFO sightings and related discussions, reflecting the ongoing interest and investigation into unexplained aerial phenomena during the late 1960s. It features reports from various countries, scientific speculation, and a call for organized research.

Reports from Around the World

Mexico

A pilot, Captain Castenada, reported an encounter with a 'spinning top' object with a red ball on a pipe. The object performed maneuvers that seemed impossible for a balloon, leading the pilot to express his surprise after 20 years of flying. Authorities in Mexico City adopted a wait-and-see attitude.

Peru

A Peruvian aircraft was followed for 800 km by a mysterious craft. The pilot, Oswaldo Sanviti, described a cone-shaped object that performed several maneuvers before stopping at a distance of about 2 miles. Witnesses noted its color changes and an estimated diameter of 70 meters. The object eventually approached the aircraft's tail, met another object, and then both disappeared at supersonic speed.

France

In Bayonne, a luminous object was observed for half an hour. It appeared as two strongly luminous, white fluorescent parts from the front, and had a slightly elongated contour with a small red bulge in profile. In Biarritz, a luminous dot, initially mistaken for a star, appeared with a beautiful orange glow, moving closer and further away before disappearing.

Norway

A detailed report from Kågsund, Skjervøy, describes an event on August 21 or 22, 1963. A witness saw a large, gray object with multiple large oval windows. Two smaller objects were ejected from the main craft, and then reabsorbed. The witness described the smaller object as oval, about 2 meters high and 3 meters long.

Denmark

Several reports from Denmark are included:

• Veksø Area: Following a supposed landing in the Veksø area, a similar event occurred. Frk. D.J. observed a small round white light followed by four large, orange-yellow square lights. The object was estimated to be about 100 meters long and moved slowly, ascending slightly.
• Strömstad, Sweden: Fru O. Karlsson observed a large, round, red object on the surface of the water, resembling a parachute or balloon, which sank and disappeared.
• Ebberup, Fyn: On January 25, 1967, Herr J.H. and his daughters observed a barrel-shaped object emitting a bright, pulsating light, hovering about 7-800 meters from them and a few meters above the ground.
• Skovlunde: Herr J.P. reported seeing a half-circle shaped object with a violet tail that descended to about 3-400 meters above a sports field before ascending rapidly and flying east.

Spain

Herr Enrique Castellet reported an unusual experience on July 8, 1965, while driving near Andorra. He observed a spherical object, 25-30 cm in diameter, that followed his car for over half an hour. The object blinked on and off and changed shape to a cylinder before returning to its spherical form and disappearing.

Scientific Speculation and Research

Intelligent Plasma

René Fouéré's article, "Intelligens og plasma" (Intelligence and Plasma), explores the possibility of intelligent beings existing as spheres of ionized gas. The article references the work of Dr. Shoulders, who is tasked by NASA to create a compact computer, and Dr. C. Maxwell Cade, who studied intelligent plasmoids. The concept of a conscious and independent plasma sphere is considered, contrasting with Dr. Shoulders' more controlled plasma computer.

Ball Lightning and UFOs

Several articles discuss the nature of ball lightning and its potential connection to UFOs. The difficulty in explaining these phenomena is highlighted, with many observations defying conventional explanations. The magazine questions whether these are simply natural phenomena or evidence of intelligent, non-human craft.

Call for International Cooperation

Professor Felix Zigel, an astronomer from the Moscow Aviation Institute, advocates for an international study of UFO problems. He suggests that Russian and American scientists should collaborate on this field. The article notes that while many UFO observations can be explained as misidentifications (e.g., meteors, balloons, satellites), a significant number remain unexplained.

Professor Zigel cites observations from Soviet astrophysical stations, including one on August 8, 1967, where an astronomer observed a crescent-shaped object that was yellow with a reddish hue, approximately two-thirds the diameter of the Moon.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue of UFO-NYT consistently emphasizes the need for rigorous, scientific investigation into UFO phenomena. It highlights numerous witness accounts that defy easy explanation, suggesting that some sightings may indeed involve unknown craft or phenomena. The magazine promotes the idea that UFOs are not merely optical illusions or fantasies, but warrant serious study. There is a clear editorial stance favoring the pursuit of knowledge and the debunking of conventional explanations when evidence points to something more extraordinary. The call for international collaboration underscores the belief that UFOs are a global phenomenon requiring a unified research effort. The recurring theme is the persistent mystery of UFOs and the scientific community's gradual, albeit sometimes reluctant, engagement with the subject.

This issue of the magazine, titled "Kontaktadresser i Danmark" (Contact Addresses in Denmark), is dated January 1, 1968. It primarily serves as a directory for UFO (Unidentified Flying Object) organizations in Denmark and Norway. The issue also features a prominent article titled "Flyvende tallerken kom med på film" (Flying saucer appeared in film), detailing an incident where a UFO was captured on film during the production of a movie.

Contact Addresses in Denmark

The first section provides a comprehensive list of contact addresses for individuals and UFO groups across various regions of Denmark, including Copenhagen and its surroundings, Zealand, Lolland-Falster, and Jutland. Each entry typically includes a postal code, town, name of the contact person, street address, and sometimes a telephone number. The addresses are listed as of January 1, 1968.

Contact Addresses in Norway

Following the Danish addresses, a similar list is provided for Norway, also dated January 1, 1968. This section includes contact information for individuals and UFO organizations in various Norwegian cities and regions such as Alta, Bergen, Bodø, Oslo, and Trondheim.

Article: Flying Saucer Captured on Film

The article "Flyvende tallerken kom med på film" reports on an incident involving the film company Universal Pictures Corporation. While shooting scenes for the movie "En mann ved navn Cannon" near Camarillo, California, an unidentified flying object (UFO) was inadvertently captured on film. The object appeared from the right side of the frame, momentarily passed behind the head of the lead actor Tony Franciosa, and then exited to the left.

The film company has stated that they are certain the object was not a conventional aircraft or any other known natural phenomenon. They have also ruled out prosaic explanations such as dust or a grain of sand on the camera lens. In response, Universal Pictures Corporation has contacted experts from the U.S. Air Force specializing in flying objects and has offered to provide the film footage for their investigation.

The article is attributed to Moss Avis, dated January 8, 1968.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The primary theme of this issue is the dissemination of information for individuals interested in UFO phenomena, specifically by providing contact points for relevant organizations. The editorial stance, as suggested by the inclusion of the article about the filmed UFO, appears to be one of reporting on and investigating UFO sightings, treating them as phenomena worthy of attention and expert analysis. The magazine aims to connect enthusiasts and facilitate communication within the UFO community in Scandinavia.
