Magazine Overview

Title: AMSKAYA
Issue Date: July 2003
Issue Number: 55
Publisher: STAR Fellowship
Document Type: Magazine Issue

This issue of AMSKAYA, the newsletter of the STAR Fellowship, is largely dedicated to the theme of extraterrestrial technology, exploring ancient knowledge and modern contactee accounts. The cover features the headline "EXTRATERRESTRIAL TECHNOLOGY" and a stylized illustration of a landscape with a flying saucer.

Extraterrestrial Technology and Ancient Knowledge

The issue opens with a subscriber, Ashley Falk from New Zealand, sharing information received by George Van Tassel, including a channelled telepathic communication from a space woman named Karen. This communication discusses technical aspects of propulsion systems for space vehicles, focusing on electromagnetic fields, magnetic pole faces, condensers, and self-generating components. Falk notes that these transmissions might have appeared in earlier publications of the College of Universal Wisdom.

An article by Ibn A'haron, titled "HOW TO BUILD A SAUCER", is presented, drawing from Chaldean literature. It suggests that ancient Chaldeans possessed knowledge of electro-gravitics and magnetic sonic understanding, which allowed them to manipulate molecular forces. The article describes a 'marvid', a type of flying craft, which utilized vibrating spheres, a graphite rod, copper coils, and a wooden rim governed by crystals for navigation. The technology is compared to that described by contactee Howard Menger.

Further discussion highlights the similarity between the Chaldean 'marvid' components and the accumulator spheres of George Adamski's saucer. The issue also references an article by Tony Wedd detailing the "Roswinga: The Wenceslas Boots", a device with heating and healing properties, which was discussed on the Philip Rodgers website.

Personal Accounts and Encounters

Paul A. Villa, a mechanic from New Mexico, shares his unique privilege of having prearranged meetings with "Space People" for the purpose of photographing their craft. Villa claims to have been taught telepathy by extraterrestrial intelligence since childhood. He recounts his first encounter in 1953 and his photographic contact in 1963, where he photographed a landed flying saucer and its nine occupants. He describes the beings as humanoid, refined, and possessing advanced scientific knowledge. They reportedly shared information about the vastness of the universe, their bases on the moon, the artificial nature of Phobos, and a Superior Intelligence governing the cosmos.

Villa also relays information from his contacts about the GT-4 flight astronauts seeing a spaceship and the government withholding Mariner-4 photos showing Martian canal systems. He mentions that by 1966, 17 nations would possess the Atomic Bomb. Villa conversed with the beings in both Spanish and English and was advised to stop smoking to enhance his telepathic abilities.

Another section details an experience of Luciano Galli in Bologna, Italy, in 1957 or 1959, which is described as an "Adamski-like experience" involving a mysterious man and a black Fiat car.

Technical Details and Publications

The "Roswinga: The Wenceslas Boots" article provides detailed technical specifications, including six layers of material (brass, cork, aluminum, acetate, copper) and specific components like copper wires, a stainless steel disc, and a galena crystal. The construction is described in detail, suggesting a complex assembly for a device with potential energy or healing properties.

An image from the Sun newspaper dated September 8th, 1966, shows Jimmy Goddard and skywatchers at Warminster, UK, during a UFO wave. This was accompanied by an article discussing Philip Klass's theory of ball lightning generated by power lines as a cause for UFO sightings.

Publications and Resources

The final pages list several publications available from the Amskaya address, including:

• The Hidden Unity and Beginnings: Explores subconscious siting of ley points, places of worship, and earth energy detection. Illustrated with photographs, maps, and drawings.
• Earth People, Space People: A booklet detailing extraterrestrial contact claims, the history of the STAR Fellowship, and evidence for life in the Solar System.
• The Legacy of Tony Wedd: A CD-ROM featuring Tony Wedd's research on flying saucers, landscape energies, and lost technology.

AMSKAYA itself is described as the newsletter of the STAR Fellowship, continuing the organization formed by Tony Wedd in 1960, with subscriptions available for £2 for four quarterly issues.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around the intersection of ancient knowledge and advanced technology, particularly concerning extraterrestrial craft and propulsion systems. There is a strong emphasis on contactee accounts and the sharing of information received through telepathic communication. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into UFO phenomena, ancient mysteries, and alternative technologies, encouraging readers to explore these subjects further through the featured publications and resources. The STAR Fellowship's mission, as presented, is to advance flying saucer investigation through such exploration.
