Editorial

The editorial, written by K.W. Flitcroft, reflects on the surge of interest in UFOs and notes a shift in focus towards the human aspect of extraterrestrial visitors. It questions whether humans, with their rapid scientific progress, can continue to ignore the possibility of contact, suggesting that extraterrestrials might find humans more interesting than our cities or machines. The editorial addresses the common argument that UFO occupants only observe us like "monkeys," deeming it invalid given humanity's own advancements in space travel. It highlights instances of UFOs following cars and showing interest in their occupants, despite official statements that these visitors pose no threat. The piece also touches upon the skepticism regarding scientific proof of contact, asserting that many decisions in life are based on ordinary reasoning and evidence, encouraging readers to form their own judgments. BUFOI aims to select testimonies of interest for its readers to facilitate their own understanding.

George Adamski: Extract from Cosmic Bulletin Mars 1974

This section presents a Q&A format addressing common questions about George Adamski. It clarifies that Adamski was born in Poland and came to the USA as a child. He did not graduate from university but gained knowledge through experience and a "LIVRE DE MEMOIRE" (Book of Memory), which allowed him to see things clearly and understand past events. Adamski is described as comprehensive, dynamic, and dedicated to humanity, living by the principle "Thy will be done." He began sharing his knowledge later in life, overcoming initial hesitations due to his lack of formal education. The text explains why Adamski, rather than a government official, was chosen for contact with Venusians: his destiny and willingness to publicly share the event. It also discusses other alleged contactees, noting that while many claim contact, few offer a constructive philosophy like Adamski's. The section addresses concerns about copyright infringement of Adamski's works, emphasizing that legal rights must be respected. Alice K. Wells, Coordinator of the George Adamski Foundation, recounts her first meeting with Adamski in April 1934 and her subsequent involvement in his work.

"Patience Universelle" (Universal Patience)

This article, likely by George Adamski, explores the concept of "Universal Patience" by extrapolating from Adamski's writings and extraterrestrial declarations. It draws parallels with the film "Chariot of the Gods" and references Adamski's 1965 desire to find evidence of past extraterrestrial visits near Mexico, a quest left unfinished upon his passing. The text delves into the idea that humanity consists of "tribes" descended from beings from other worlds, who became indifferent to each other. It emphasizes that current actions are a consequence of past events and that individuals should approach the present with a positive mindset, recognizing that every situation has positive and negative aspects. The article suggests that despite differences in origin, skin color, or heritage, all individuals share a common basis for existence, and through our capacity for thought, we are part of a universal school of individual participation.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around UFO phenomena, extraterrestrial contact, and the teachings of George Adamski. The editorial stance is one of open inquiry, encouraging readers to critically evaluate information and form their own conclusions, rather than accepting dogma. There is a strong emphasis on the spiritual and philosophical aspects of extraterrestrial contact, promoting a positive and universal perspective on humanity's place in the cosmos. The magazine appears to be non-political, non-religious, and non-sectarian, focusing solely on the pursuit of truth related to UFOs and cosmic understanding.

This issue of UFO CONTACT, dated April 1974, is published by IG AP-DANEMARK and focuses on a variety of topics related to UFOs, psychic phenomena, ancient discoveries, and human evolution.

Articles

The George Adamski Foundation and Universal Patience

The issue begins with reflections on the aspirations of individuals and the principles advanced in George Adamski's "La Science de la vie." It suggests that the application of these principles to daily life on Earth will lead to observable effects, varying with individual assimilation. The text notes that progress is often slow due to a lack of patience and tolerance in a society that does not readily assimilate new ideas. Visitors often exhibit impatience and a desire for personal advancement over genuine motivation for progress, which requires significant patience. While many desire personal contact with extraterrestrials, discouragement can set in due to impatience. The article references Adamski's years of effort to meet extraterrestrials, emphasizing that true progress requires patience and that individuals must evolve at their own pace, understanding they are within the truth. Only when this universal patience is achieved can one speak of a "universal patience."

The George Adamski Foundation is listed with contact information for James L. Entsminger in La Mesa, California.

Uri Geller: A Phenomenon

This section details the extraordinary experiences and abilities of Uri Geller, a figure who has reportedly shaken the world with his demonstrations. The article highlights that Geller's feats, such as bending metal and influencing objects, are unprecedented in history. His case gained significant attention through media coverage (radio, press, TV). The text connects Geller's abilities to cosmic forces and human consciousness, suggesting that these gifts are inherent in humanity but not always developed. Geller's abilities are described as being triggered by him, acting as a "trigger" for the thought energy of others. The article suggests that in the future, this energy of thought will be used in daily life, potentially allowing for objects to be brought to oneself without physical movement.

Several incidents involving Geller are recounted:

• Mental Travel to Brazil: A report from the Danish newspaper "BP" (January 28, 1974) quotes Léo Leslie Clemenssen of the National Museum. Clemenssen describes how Geller, in a trance at an institute, mentally traveled to Brazil, walked the streets, and was asked to retrieve a coin, which he produced from his clenched fist. He also reportedly retrieved a specially made tie pin that Edward Mitchell had lost four years prior in Florida.
• Military Experience: A military experiment involved Geller being ordered to gather intelligence in a foreign country, which he reportedly accomplished with incredible success.
• Stanford Research Institute: Professors John Withmore and Ronald Deutsch of the Stanford Research Institute describe Geller's abilities as sensational, comparing the impact to the realization that the Earth was round. They state that Geller confronts them with a "new dimension" and that scientific explanations for his feats are lacking. Withmore notes that Geller dares to speak about these things and collaborate on their terms.
• Object Manipulation: Geller demonstrated the ability to move objects, such as a tie pin appearing in Edward Mitchell's ice cream, which Mitchell had lost years earlier. Geller was unaware of the lost pin.
• Camera Retrieval: Geller promised to retrieve a camera forgotten by astronaut Edward Mitchell on the Moon. NASA is reportedly teaching Geller lunar topography for this purpose.
• Chemical Analysis: A report in the German magazine DER SPIEGEL on a spoon bent by Geller concluded that a chemical agent might have been used, a conclusion Withmore dismisses as too simplistic, stating that natural explanations have long been sought.
• Prestidigitation Claims: The Daily Express initially tried to prove Geller was a magician, but correspondent Don Coolican renounced this claim after witnessing Geller's abilities.
• Consciousness Energy: John Withmore suggests that Geller's abilities are not entirely new but that the realization of their sensational nature is. He posits that reality is based not on traditional energy but on "consciousness energy."
• Gambling: Geller could predict where a roulette ball would land but was unsuccessful in influencing the outcome in Las Vegas, indicating his powers are not for personal gain or crime.

A book by Dr. A. Puharich about Uri Geller is announced for publication in the spring, expected to be a significant work.

Uri Geller also stated to a PARIS-MATCH reporter that he works for superior extraterrestrial civilizations who are preparing humanity for their arrival.

UFO Primahistoire: Photos Lead to Discovery of Peruvian Ruins

This section reports on the discovery of ancient Peruvian ruins attributed to a civilization that existed 3000 years ago. Anthropologist Michael Moseley of Harvard, studying aerial photographs from 1920, identified temples in a location known as Caballo Muerte, about 16 kilometers inland from the Peruvian coast. These photos, originally taken by Peruvian air force aviators 50 years prior, revealed temple walls with frescoes depicting human figures with jaguar-like mouths.

Moseley believes these are the remains of a "pre-urban culture" built by cultivators for ceremonial purposes. The findings shed light on the development of urban civilization in South America, leading to cities like Chanchan over 2000 years ago. Chanchan, an abandoned city about 800 years old, is located 11 km from the temples where Moseley excavated for three years. He discovered relics of an even older civilization, including decorated platforms, pottery fragments, and artifacts protected by the arid climate. The largest structure, the "Platform of the Kings," measures 91.4 meters long and 60.9 meters wide, featuring giant head statues and human figures one and a half times life-size.

Moseley plans an 18-month excavation at Caballo Muerto, supported by the National Geographic Society, the National Science Foundation, and the Peabody Museum.

Discovery of the Oldest Fossilized Skull

An anthropologist has announced the discovery of a two-and-a-half-million-year-old human skull in Kenya, found by Richard Leakey's expedition. This skull, along with stone tools and leg bones from the same period, challenges existing theories of human evolution due to its resemblance to contemporary humans. The fossils are a million and a half years older than previously discovered ones. The age of the tools was confirmed by radio-isotopic dating.

Leakey stated it is the oldest complete skull vestige discovered. The fossilized remains date back over two and a half million years, predating the controversial *Homo habilis* discovered by Louis S.B. Leakey, Richard's father, who was considered the first human ancestor to make tools.

The discovery, financed by the National Geographic Society, was to be presented at a scientific meeting in London. Located about 500 miles north of Olduvai Gorge, this find could significantly alter our understanding of human origins. The skull's cranial cavity resembles ours, but with less pronounced brow ridges and a thicker bone structure than *Homo erectus*. The leg bones also differ little from modern human bones. This discovery implies that current evolutionary theories may not apply.

Previously, it was believed humans evolved over one to two million years, but it is now commonly accepted that the ape-like ancestor appeared 14 million years ago. Harvard anthropologists also found bone fragments in Kenya suggesting humans were close to their current state 5 million years ago.

The Electromagnetic Dragon (UFO Science)

This concluding section discusses UFOs and their potential for travel within solar systems and planetary atmospheres. It notes that radar has measured UFO speeds exceeding 9000 miles per hour, far surpassing conventional aircraft speeds like the Lockheed YF-12A (2070 mph) or the X-15 (over 4000 mph).

The article highlights the characteristic flight maneuvers of UFOs: stationary hovering, sharp turns, vertical ascents, horizontal flight, and sudden stops and accelerations. It questions how circular vehicles without wings or engines can achieve this, contrasting it with conventional propulsion which relies on gas exhaust and would cause a craft to fall if thrust diminished.

It is suggested that early skepticism about UFOs in the 1940s stemmed from a lack of understanding of advanced technology. Phenomena like brightly colored sky portions, once inexplicable, are now understood in the context of atmospheric plasma, which became relevant with the challenges of ICBM re-entry and orbiting space capsules traveling at speeds of 17000 miles per hour.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The issue consistently explores the intersection of the unexplained with scientific inquiry and ancient history. There's a strong emphasis on phenomena that challenge conventional understanding, whether it's psychic abilities, extraterrestrial contact, or the origins of humanity. The magazine appears to advocate for an open mind towards these subjects, presenting evidence and expert opinions that push the boundaries of current knowledge. The recurring theme is the potential for a broader understanding of reality, encompassing consciousness, advanced technologies, and the deep past of human and potentially non-human civilizations.

The editorial stance seems to be one of curiosity and a desire to inform readers about phenomena that are often dismissed or misunderstood by mainstream science, encouraging a re-evaluation of accepted paradigms.

This issue of UFO-CONTACT, published by IGAP-DANEMARK in August 1973, delves into various aspects of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and related phenomena. The content spans theoretical propulsion systems, observations from space, historical mysteries, and scientific research into natural phenomena.

Interplanetary Propulsion and UFO Theory

The magazine explores the concept of "mother ships" and smaller "scout" craft, theorizing that these craft utilize electromagnetic currents and space plasma for propulsion. The article "SYSTEME DE PROPULSION DES VAISSEAUX-MERES" details how these vessels might harness energy from space, potentially achieving superluminal speeds. It suggests that UFOs are "progravific vehicles" that use electromagnetic forces and generate electrostatic fields to become weightless and maneuverable. The text posits that the scientific community has historically held a prejudice against UFOs, dismissing electromagnetic propulsion as unfeasible due to the perceived limitations of magnets.

Observations and Scientific Perspectives

Several articles discuss observations and scientific findings. The "CONCLUSION" section suggests that airports could be repurposed for other uses, and that the problems of noise and air pollution from jet planes would disappear with advanced flight systems. The potential military applications of silent, rapid, and maneuverable weapons are also noted. The issue advocates for studying UFOs as a new approach to flight, regardless of their existence.

Environmental Concerns from Space

A section titled "POLLUTION", UN CRI D'ALARME qui nous vient de l'ESPACE" reports on the observations made by the Skylab astronauts. Gerald Carr, C.D. Gibson, and William Pogue described the Earth as being covered in smog and pollution, with scarred landscapes from industrial activities. They presented photographic evidence to the US Congress, emphasizing the need to protect the planet and suggesting that future space missions would map pollution to facilitate international control.

Mysterious Shipwreck

An article titled "Mystérieuses pieces métalliques de fabrication moderne dans une épave datant d'il y a 52 ans" details the discovery of a shipwreck that sank 52 years prior. The wreck contained aluminum beams whose manufacturing technique was only 15 years old at the time of discovery, presenting a significant anachronism. The ship, identified as the Swedish cargo vessel "Elmaren", sank in 1921, miles off its normal course from Australia to South America. The Ministry of Defence stated they were unaware of any such wreck in the area, and the case was passed to Sweden for further investigation.

Natural Phenomena and Potential Warnings

Another piece, "Les poissons pourraient nous sauver d'un cataclysme," discusses the research of Professor A. J. Kalmijn, who claims that catfish can detect impending earthquakes 6 to 8 hours in advance by sensing changes in Earth's electric field. This phenomenon was reportedly observed by Japanese marine biologists 30 years prior, noting abnormal agitation in catfish preceding natural disasters. The article suggests that this sensitivity extends to other animals and potentially humans, referring to it as "true telepathy."

Other Reports and Mentions

Brief reports include a quote from Apollo 11 astronaut Michael Collins about his transformative experience in space. Another section discusses the composition of Saturn's rings, suggesting they are solid material rather than gas or dust. A report from Algeciras mentions sightings of amphibious UFOs. The issue also includes a brief mention of an industrialist in Casale, Italy, observing a flying saucer with occupants.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue of UFO-CONTACT revolve around the potential of electromagnetic propulsion for advanced craft, the historical skepticism of the scientific community towards UFO phenomena, and the importance of studying these objects. There is also a strong emphasis on environmental awareness, highlighted by the Skylab astronauts' observations. The magazine adopts a stance of open inquiry, encouraging the study of UFOs and exploring scientific explanations for unusual phenomena, while also touching upon broader environmental and geological concerns.

Title: UFO-OBSERVATIONS
Issue Date: March 1974
Publisher: CCL Paris
Country: France
Language: French

This issue of UFO-OBSERVATIONS focuses on a series of reported unidentified flying object (UFO) sightings from early 1974, primarily in France and Spain, with a notable report from the United States.

Un O.V.N.I. dans le Ciel Charentais (A UFO in the Charentais Sky)

The lead story details a sighting by a family residing in Moutardon (Charante), near Ruffec, France. The object, described as a flying object not identified (O.V.N.I.), was observed around 9:30 PM. The witnesses described it as being 1.50 to 2 meters long, shaped like a half-moon, and white in color. It moved at a vertiginous speed at an altitude of approximately 100 meters. After a few moments, the object reportedly immobilized for 8 minutes, during which several of its portholes lit up. Subsequently, the lights extinguished, and the O.V.N.I. rapidly departed, leaving behind a whitish glow. The witnesses stated that the phenomenon occurred a second time under the same conditions.

Et Plusieurs Autres en Espagne (And Several Others in Spain)

Reports from Spain include sightings from Vigo and Cadix. In Vigo, inhabitants reported observing oblong flying objects. A hairdresser from Vigo, Juan Miguela, reported being in Vila de Suso Mouras (province of Montevedra) when, around 3:30 AM, he felt suffocating heat. Looking out his window, he saw an oval-shaped object of large dimension and greenish color near the beach. Shortly after, the object ascended vertically and disappeared silently. In Cadix, Jorge Angel Fornes Sanchez observed an oblong, very bright object through binoculars from a house terrace. After a few minutes of immobility, it disappeared at high speed. The article notes that Vigo and Cadix are approximately 800 kilometers apart.

Un O.V.N.I., au-dessus de Mercure (A UFO, above Mercury)

This section shifts focus to astronomical observations, mentioning that Mercury also has its extraterrestrials. An unidentified flying object was reportedly detected 25,000 kilometers above Mercury, moving at a speed of 16,000 kilometers per hour. This object, approximately 26 kilometers in diameter, was observed by numerous telescopes and radars. The report speculates whether all planets in the solar system are under surveillance by artificial satellites of extraterrestrial origin. It also states that there are over a hundred claimed UFOs on Earth not claimed by either the Russians or Americans, and raises the question of whether such objects will be observed above Venus and Mars, quoting "BUT YES, MARS IS INHABITED!". This section is attributed to Jacques Bergier, from CCL Paris, Nostradamus N° 107, dated April 25, 1974.

Dans le Jura, Un O.V.N.I., brûle l'herbe d'un pré (In the Jura, A UFO, burns the grass of a meadow)

In Lons-le-Saunier, an unidentified flying object (UFO) is reported to have landed near Graye-et-Charnay in the South of Jura. Robert Marechal, a 15-year-old resident of the family farm in the Carrières hamlet, claims that one night he was awakened by a strange whistling sound and a flashing yellow light. The next morning, he noticed that about 300 meters from the house, the grass was burned in regular intervals, forming oval patterns. He recounted the event to his father, who alerted the gendarmes of Saint-Amour. The gendarmes took photographs of the presumed landing site where the grass was indeed burned in places. This report is attributed to CCL. PARIS. Le PARISIEN, May 1974.

Un "O.V.N.I." aperçu par plusieurs personnes (A "UFO" sighted by several people)

Martigues: An unidentified phosphorescent object, whose color shifted between green and red, was sighted around 9 PM above the town of Martigues. Observed by several inhabitants, the object, shaped like a luminous circle, moved slowly. It then immobilized to the Southeast in one of the town's districts before disappearing. This report is from LE MERIDIONAL-LA FRANCE, January 21, 1974.

Privas: A UFO was seen between 9 PM and 10:30 PM by Dominique Durand on the lake plain, in the direction of the Coiron plateau, near Privas (Ardèche). A light, the size of a first-magnitude star and changing color, was observed by 15 witnesses before it slowly disappeared behind the mountain. The article also references the same journal from Friday, April 19, 1974, for a UFO sighting in the sky of Lorraine.

Metz: The head of the Moselle section of the French Circle of Ufological Research (C.F.R.U.) stated in a press release that a mysterious luminous flying object traversed the sky above Forbach (Moselle) for 3 minutes on Monday evening, around 8:40 PM. Two credible witnesses reportedly saw a silent apparatus under the clouds, blinking unusually with a bright red glow. The UFO, which initially moved from Northwest to Southeast, then turned East and became invisible as its red lights extinguished. Based on the absence of noise, its speed, trajectory, and lights, the C.F.R.U. formally rejected the hypothesis of a weather balloon or an airplane. This report is from CCL PARIS. LE PARISIEN, April 1974.

Des O.V.N.I. dans le Ciel du Nord (UFOs in the Sky of the North)

UFOs continue to be a topic of discussion in the Nord region of France. Following sightings in Maubeuge, Roncq, and Lens, people in the Douai region have also reported sightings. M. Betourne, a former head of service for the Nord and Pas-de-Calais mining basin, reported observing a luminous globe with imprecise contours and a red flashing light for about a minute on the evening of January 6th, accompanied by his wife. In Maubeuge, several people claimed to have seen flying saucers on two occasions in September. More recently, inhabitants of Roncq (near Lille) made identical declarations. Very early on the morning of December 31st, near Lens, a grocer named Lie Fooghe told the gendarmes he had seen a "flying cigar." Investigators took note of suspicious traces on the frozen ground and issued a regional press appeal for other witnesses. The article notes that one of the UFO appearances reported in Northern France was explained: a few days prior, at Le Portel, near Boulogne-sur-Mer, many people had reported seeing luminous objects in the sky, which turned out to be parachute flares stolen from boats and fired by a group of young burglars at night. This report is from CCL PARIS. Le Parisien, January 1974.

Par Gerry Brown - An Encounter with a UFO

This section details an encounter by a US Army helicopter crew (US Army ground force) with a UFO over Ohio, USA. An official report stated that the helicopter was forced into an emergency landing after mysteriously losing all contact with the base and was then inexplicably pulled upwards over 2000 feet by an unknown force. Captain Larry Coyne, commander of the helicopter, stated that in his 17 years in the army, he had never encountered anything like it, and that the flying machines he had seen previously were nothing compared to this.

The incident occurred on Wednesday, October 18th, at 11:10 PM. The Bell Huey Jet helicopter was about 50 miles south of its base at Cleveland Hopkins. Chief pilot Robert Yanasek was the first to observe something unusual: a red light moving towards them at high speed. He alerted the captain. Captain Coyne, who is also the commander and chief of the 316th Medical Detachment of the US Army, explained that he initially thought it was a fighter jet from the nearby Mansfield base and contacted them to clear their route. However, as the light approached rapidly, radio contact was abruptly lost. The other "apparatus" was dangerously close, forcing Coyne to make an immediate evasive maneuver, causing the helicopter to go into a free fall. At the same moment, the other apparatus approached to within 500 feet.

The UFO then performed a maneuver never before seen by any of the four men. Moving at 600 miles per hour, the object slowed down to match their speed of about 100 miles per hour and hovered stationary above them. The passengers were startled by what they saw. The co-pilot, Lieutenant Arrigion Jezzi, described the object as cigar-shaped, metallic gray, with a dome on top. Sergeant John Healey, the fourth crew member, added that it was exactly like the unimaginable drawings of UFOs he had seen, about 60 feet long, with no visible doors or openings. He also noted a red light on the nose, and then a spotlight-like light from the rear enveloped them and invaded the cabin.

After hovering over the helicopter for a few seconds, the UFO turned and departed North at high speed. With the danger of collision averted, Captain Coyne regained control to pull the helicopter out of its dive. At this point, the crew witnessed one of the most astonishing aspects of the incident: while the UFO had been hovering, the helicopter was in a vertical dive at 1500 feet, and just seconds later, it was flying at 3800 feet. An FAA official commented that this rapid ascent was impossible for an airplane to achieve on its own power.

Captain Coyne stated, "I headed North at full speed, thinking: let's not linger here, in case these crazy things come back." Ten minutes later, their radio was functioning normally again. The four men, who are part of a US Army reservist unit, gave a consistent account of their experience. A complete report was filed for the Army and the FAA.

FAA Operations Chief's Statement: P.J. Vollmer, the FAA operations chief at Hopkins Airport, declared to investigators that this UFO observation was unlike anything seen before and that they wondered what kind of craft it was and how its crew could withstand decelerations of 600 to 1000 miles per hour in seconds without apparent damage. He also noted that according to the helicopter's instruments, it climbed at a speed impossible to achieve normally.

Captain Coyne's Reflection: Captain Coyne admitted to always being skeptical of UFOs and hoped a logical explanation would be found. He stated that if he had been alone, he would not have mentioned the incident due to its inexplicable nature, not wanting to risk his position as a unit commander. However, for the sake of future operations in the area, he hoped someone would provide an explanation.

Sources Cited: The reports are attributed to NAT. INQUIRER 10/12, UFO Contact, January 1974, and IGAP- Denmark.

Advertisements

The issue includes advertisements for photocopied pages from "Guide de la Lune" by Patrick Moore, a rare item on "La propulsion des soucoupes volantes" by Lt. Jean Plantier, and a "Détecteur magnétique de soucoupes volantes GEOS 5." These items are available for purchase through BUFOI.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring theme throughout this issue is the prevalence of UFO sightings across various locations in France and Spain, as well as a significant encounter in the United States. The editorial stance appears to be one of serious reporting and investigation of these phenomena, presenting witness testimonies and official reports without immediate dismissal. The inclusion of scientific and ufological organizations like the C.F.R.U. and the FAA's involvement in the US case suggests an effort to provide credible accounts. The speculative tone regarding extraterrestrial surveillance of planets and the detailed analysis of the US helicopter incident indicate a deep interest in the unexplained aspects of UFO phenomena.
