14 - UFO Contact BUFOI - No 14 - 1967

Magazine Overview

Title: UFO contact
Issue: No. 14
Date: February 1967
Type: Belgian UFO review

Editorial

The editorial, titled "EDITORIAL," argues that a significant number of people worldwide, regardless of nationality, religion, political affiliation, or level of civilization, share a common understanding and belief in extraterrestrial visitations to Earth. It asserts that postal services have delivered mail concerning UFOs, and that important air routes have been sites of strange phenomena. The editorial criticizes the scientific community and authorities for their skepticism, ridicule, and lack of interest in investigating these phenomena, suggesting that only non-official entities are actively pursuing research and gathering documents that official authorities have "superbly ignored." It posits that these authorities are aware of the existence of alien spacecraft and their pilots, and even their origins and purposes. While acknowledging friendly extraterrestrial visitors, the editorial also warns of "intrusions" from less friendly entities, urging readers to remain receptive to reports of "curious" activities from space.

The editorial also highlights George Adamski's past attempts to engage the United Nations on the topic of extraterrestrial visitors, noting that such contacts occurred even before the fatal trip of UN Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjöld to Africa. It suggests that Adamski was in conference with a UN personality during Hammarskjöld's mission to the Congo.

The Role of the United Nations

The editorial questions the role that the United Nations could play in resolving the mystery of flying saucers. It suggests that the UN, with its multinational reach, is ideally positioned to investigate UFO phenomena objectively on a global scale. The editorial notes recent proposals by various countries concerning the control of interplanetary space, including an outline for a treaty that would internationalize space, outlaw weapons, and establish mutual aid in case of emergencies. Details of these treaty proposals are to be found later in the magazine.

It is revealed that George Adamski was not the only individual to present proposals to the UN regarding alien spacecraft. A former major in the Royal Hungarian General Staff, who worked for the UN's intelligence service, radio, and visual department, was dismissed shortly after presenting his findings. The magazine suggests that this dismissal was due to his proposals potentially opposing US policy on UFOs. The editorial expresses support for any international body the UN might establish for investigating alien visitors and assures readers that this will help the world understand the truth.

A postscript from the editors urges all UN delegates to address the UFO question, emphasizing its importance to all citizens. They also offer to send the magazine to national delegates who may not yet receive it.

Letter to the United Nations

A "Lettre ouverte" (Open Letter) is addressed to U Thant, Secretary-General of the United Nations, dated February 1967. The letter begins by stating that 1966 was a significant year for humanity, marked by agreements on the peaceful use of space, facilitated by the UN. It acknowledges the Earth's turning point in its outward expansion into the universe and expresses pessimism about humanity's materialistic nature and disregard for human rights, questioning its suitability for discovering other stars. However, the letter also expresses hope for progress following proposals for space cooperation at the 21st General Assembly.

The letter poses the question: "Has the UN reached maturity?" It refers to a recent agreement between the US government and an American university to study UFO reports, suggesting that an objective investigation cannot be conducted by an "INDEPENDENT ORGANIZATION." The letter strongly asserts that the decision on what the world should know and accept about alien visitations should not be left to the politicians of the US or the Soviet Union. It criticizes the "voluntary blindness" of humanity over the past twenty years, which has led people to accept the dogma of scientists and religious figures, allowing politicians, militarists, and financiers to control information about life beyond Earth.

The letter emphasizes the urgent need for the internationalization of the study of this global phenomenon, stating that any official spokesperson on the subject bears immense responsibility. It argues that the implications of alien visits are too important to be left to the "reckless policy of the armed services of a single nation (USA)." The letter concludes by highlighting the UN's role in accepting the need for a global investigation and analysis of UFOs as the potential beginning of knowledge. It mentions a previous note sent to the Secretary-General in June 1965 and a second note sent a year later, in February 1966, which contained detailed proposals for an analytical network to study UFO reports.

UFO-SCIENCE: The Astonishing Discovery

This section, authored by J.G. Dohmen, discusses the "VENUSIAN'S IMPRINTS" and "PILOT'S SHOES." Dohmen recounts his discovery following the death of G. Adamski, focusing on Adamski's account of a 1952 encounter at Desert Center where a "Venusian" left footprints. Dohmen, a professor of footwear technology, approaches the subject with a critical and analytical perspective, stating he is not an "Adamskist" and refuses to accept anything that cannot be proven.

His research, conducted with a group of friends from 1955 onwards, covers various aspects of ufology, including personal observations, orthoteny, and investigations in France and Belgium. The article specifically details the analysis of the Desert Center footprints, which were 76 mm long and described as having deep impressions. Dohmen notes that Adamski claimed the visitor's marks were deeper than his own, suggesting a higher weight or density. The analysis of the footprints, including detailed sketches and technical descriptions, forms a significant part of this section.

Dohmen describes the alleged footwear as a "baroque sole" that is unusually wide and cumbersome, with a heel that is "heavy." He hypothesizes that this monobloc sole might be designed to fit into another, more flexible material. He also notes the presence of "hieroglyphs" on the soles and heels, which he initially dismisses as potentially symbolic or decorative but later explores for their technical significance.

The Hieroglyphs and Interpretation

Further analysis delves into the "hieroglyphs" found on the alleged alien footwear. The author, initially skeptical, presents a method of interpreting these symbols by reversing the monoblocs. This process leads to a proposition that the symbols might represent a "flying disk tearing away from the base of its planet," with a rotating circle and two "V" shapes possibly indicating a force field deflecting obstacles in space. The author suggests that these symbols could relate to propulsion and piloting technology.

The article discusses the idea that the symbols, when reversed, could be interpreted as a message. It also mentions that the original photos of Adamski's encounter were mysteriously replaced with a message titled "WRITINGS FROM ANOTHER PLANET." The author states that the case of Adamski can only be solved by systematically analyzing its various components.

Dohmen emphasizes that the hieroglyphs, whether viewed as a rebus, cryptogram, or logogriph, possess significant scientific and technical importance, particularly concerning propulsion and maneuvering devices. He suggests that the symbols surrounding the saucer, when viewed in reverse, could reveal information about the craft's propulsion and piloting capabilities.

A Remarkable Discovery

The author describes a "remarkable discovery" related to the hieroglyphs, which he states is not a product of genius but of professional discipline. He attributes the discovery to 85% sweat, 10% chance, and 5% reflection. He asserts that both the hieroglyphs on the footwear and the "WRITINGS FROM ANOTHER PLANET" message share a common, identical process and intelligence, regardless of whether they are considered genuine or a hoax.

The article then shifts to "A RENCONTRE D'UNE AUTRE TECHNOLOGIE" (A Meeting with Another Technology), referencing a quote by Jean E. Charon about the rigorous laws governing elementary particles. The author posits that technology, as a product of thought, offers interpretations akin to language. He compares this to the communication of bees, dolphins, or ants, suggesting that technology represents the meeting point of thought with itself or with another thought, both having "FOUGHT WITH MATTER."

By examining the processed and worked-over matter, the author believes one can find the psychological impetus behind it. He notes that in the absence of actual footwear, only sketches of footprints are available. He speculates that if beings on other planets possess skilled hands and textile products, they would also have needles and thread, perhaps as vestiges of craftsmanship. He concludes that by examining this "other production," the technician can rediscover their professional parameters and a language that is recognizable as a piece of evidence, revealing concrete data that, when compared, offers astonishing insights.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue of "UFO Contact" strongly advocates for the internationalization of UFO research, with a particular focus on the United Nations as the appropriate body to conduct objective investigations. The editorial stance is critical of official skepticism and scientific dogma, championing the efforts of independent researchers and contactees like George Adamski. There is a recurring theme of deciphering alien messages and technology, particularly through the analysis of symbols and footprints, suggesting a belief in the tangible evidence of extraterrestrial presence and advanced capabilities. The magazine appears to be dedicated to uncovering and disseminating information about UFOs, often from a perspective that challenges conventional scientific and governmental viewpoints.

This issue of BUFOI UFO-Contact, number 14, features a significant study by J.G. Dohmen, a professor of technical teaching who has made several technological discoveries. The magazine dedicates this issue to his work, which is also authorized for reproduction by the IGAP group and 17 other countries.

The "Venusian" Shoe and Pilotage

The core of the issue revolves around the analysis of footprints, particularly those found at "Desert Center." The article posits that these are not ordinary shoes but specialized "pilot shoes" for UFOs. The author, J.G. Dohmen, meticulously examines the morphology of these footprints, noting their unusual design, such as the exaggerated materials around the heel and the spacing of the toes. He contrasts these with conventional footwear, suggesting their purpose is linked to piloting rather than walking.

Dohmen proposes that the design, particularly the "parapet" around the shoe, is crucial for interacting with a pilot's station or control system within a craft. He discusses the economic implications of producing such items, suggesting a large-scale, automated manufacturing process. The concept of "emboîtage" (interlocking parts) is explored as a key manufacturing technique, implying a sophisticated level of engineering.

Hieroglyphs and Ancient Civilizations

The issue extends its investigation into the realm of ancient civilizations, drawing parallels between the technological implications of the pilot shoes and historical mysteries. A significant section is dedicated to the potential extraterrestrial origins of ancient Egyptian civilization. The article highlights the work of British Egyptologist Walter Emery in searching for the tomb of Imhotep, a divinised sage, suggesting that Imhotep might have been an extraterrestrial.

This hypothesis is further supported by a declaration from Walter Bryon Emery, who stated that no trace of civilization existed in Egypt six thousand years ago, implying that the advanced structures were introduced by "supernatural instructors" from flying saucers. The article also references a Vatican manuscript from the Annals of Pharaoh Thutmose III, describing a "circle of fire" in the sky and beings with unusual characteristics, interpreted as evidence of alien visitation.

Scientific and Technological Inquiries

The research presented connects with ongoing investigations by American physicists and archaeologists. The use of cosmic ray penetration to locate unknown chambers within the pyramids is mentioned, suggesting a concerted effort to uncover secrets of primhistory. The possibility that flying objects observed for decades might be "civilization vectors" is raised, prompting modern archaeologists to explore the presence of "Space People" in different eras.

Interpretation and Questions

Dohmen's work is presented as a potential "key" to interpreting the symbols associated with these phenomena. The article poses several questions regarding the function of the shoe's reliefs, the purpose of the parapet, the material's value, and the relationship between these findings and concepts like "WRITING FROM ANOTHER PLANET." The author invites readers to consider whether these are genuine discoveries or elaborate hoaxes.

The "Joconde's Smile" and Other Psychisms

A more philosophical section, titled "Le sourire de la Joconde ou d'un autre psychisme," reflects on the nature of interpretation. It suggests that while some may see simple details, others perceive deeper, hidden meanings, drawing parallels to the artistic and scientific contributions of figures like Leonardo da Vinci. The author encourages a flexible approach to understanding these phenomena, embracing both rational and unconventional perspectives.

Conclusion and Future Research

The issue concludes by emphasizing the importance of Dohmen's research, particularly the "emboîtage" technique, which the author believes cannot be attributed to mere chance. It touches upon the historical context of pilot gear, such as the heated boots of Stukas pilots, and suggests that the symbols on the shoes might represent squadron or craft identification. The article reiterates the author's commitment to rigorous research, spanning from 1955 to the present, and encourages further investigation into the "other psychism" presented.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the technological sophistication of potential alien craft, the interpretation of enigmatic symbols (hieroglyphs, footprints), and the re-evaluation of ancient history through the lens of extraterrestrial influence. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, presenting complex hypotheses based on detailed analysis of physical evidence and historical records, while acknowledging the speculative nature of some conclusions and inviting reader engagement.

This issue of "Fraternity of Cosmic Sons and Daughters" (Volume 13, Issue 13) delves into ancient mysteries and contemporary UFO phenomena, with a particular focus on the scientific archives of a supposed antediluvian human civilization and the nature of unidentified flying objects.

Ancient Archives of the Antediluvian Man

The lead article posits that the construction of the pyramids, specifically Chéops, was guided by advanced scientific knowledge, possibly of extraterrestrial origin, referencing biblical figures like Enoch. It suggests that ancient Egypt was a highly advanced civilization, capable of supporting over 100 million inhabitants and possessing sophisticated machinery. The article draws parallels between the description of the Jordan plain in the Book of Genesis and ancient Egypt, implying a divine or advanced origin. It recounts the efforts of Caliph El Mamoun to penetrate the Great Pyramid, suggesting that his actions were based on profound knowledge of its architecture. The text also mentions the failed attempt by Melik al Aziz in 1196 to destroy the Red Pyramid, highlighting its enduring nature. The article speculates whether these ancient rulers were seeking ancient spacecraft or technology, drawing a parallel to modern-day American physicists searching for similar advanced means.

It references Williamson's book "The Lion's Places," which claims a vimana (ancient flying machine) is buried near Chéops to reinforce telluric currents. The text also mentions the work of Abbé Th. Moreux, who illustrated lines of force intersecting beneath the Great Pyramid, suggesting a point of control over global human activity and tele-command capabilities.

The article touches upon the idea of extraterrestrial beings choosing regions with favorable telluric currents for their metabolism, referencing Desmond Leslie and George Adamski's work on flying saucers and the tradition of Rose-Croix emigrating to a neighboring planet. It notes that many traditions converge on the idea of interplanetary migrations, with the last departure from Giseh.

Paul Brunton is cited for his account of a thin flame transforming into a blueish column observed near the Great Pyramid, witnessed by Dr. Abbate Pacha and M. William Grog. The article concludes this section by returning to Malik al Aziz's attempt to destroy the Red Pyramid, linking the color red to a symbolic secret.

Telemetric Discs

This section, authored by Major H.C. Petersen, focuses on the phenomenon of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs), specifically "telemetric discs." The author distinguishes between common saucer-shaped objects and larger, cigar-shaped "mother ships" or submarine-like craft that operate in air and water. He highlights the "telemetric disc" as a smaller, ubiquitous observation craft that has been observed since 1944.

During World War II, these objects appeared around aircraft over the Baltic, initially mistaken for enemy reconnaissance. However, their non-hostile behavior and persistent observation of aircraft, even penetrating them, suggested otherwise. These objects were described as the size of a silver dollar and moved individually or in groups, primarily for observation.

With the end of the war, the responsibility for these sightings was attributed to different nations, but no one had definitive answers. The activity of these small objects decreased after the hostilities, leading some to dismiss them. The author notes that these objects are simple in design and are equipped with sufficient energy to complete their tasks before disintegrating, often into gelatinous substances or scoria upon contact with water.

Since the early 1960s, a new type of telemetric disc has become prevalent: a simple "bubble of soap." These are often overlooked due to their common appearance but are capable of directed flight, crossing obstacles, and reacting to observers. The author emphasizes that these are not natural phenomena but intelligent emissaries from extraterrestrial visitors.

Several personal accounts illustrate the behavior of these "bubbles of soap."

• E. Slei (Copenhagen, 1965): A police inspector mentally challenged a soap bubble-like object, which then descended, touched his feet, rose to his face, and disappeared.
• Author's wife and self (June 23, 1965): They observed two bubble-like objects moving against the wind at low altitude, which did not react to their thoughts.
• Mme S. Onions (Redditch, UK): Recounts seeing a tennis ball-sized, transparent object moving against the wind, which remained stationary before moving slowly.
• C. O'Neill (Hendon, UK): Saw an object resembling a bubble that moved with extraordinary speed.
• Mme C. Colville (Horndon-on-the-Hill, UK): Observed a tennis ball-sized object with a green light that vanished rapidly.
• Mme G. Wheatley (Horchurch, UK): Saw a large, transparent saucer-shaped object moving up and down.

The article also includes a photographic report from Aalborg, Denmark (January 29, 1963), showing a telemetric disc in various stages: approaching, hovering, and moving away, described as becoming milky white and pulsating.

Commentary and Recurring Themes

Ronald Caswell provides commentary, noting the resonance of Major Petersen's article with his own research. He references correspondence from the Daily Mirror, highlighting public interest in UFOs and related phenomena. The section includes letters from readers sharing their sightings of "flying balls" and "bubbles of soap."

Wilbert B. Smith, former director of Project Magnet (UFO investigation in Canada), is quoted discussing a "tempic field" and telemetric devices. He recounts an experience where a conversation was apparently monitored by a small craft, which then revealed itself as a small disc emerging from a heat wave.
