This issue of UFO Times, published by BUFORA, presents a diverse range of articles focusing on UFO phenomena, government secrecy, and alternative scientific theories. The cover features an illustration by Bill Dillon, described as a UFO philosopher and artist, depicting a scene with a donkey's head, a carrot, and a figure observing a UFO.
Editorial: The People's Science
Ken Phillips, the editor, introduces an article on dowsing as a potential method for identifying elements fundamental to life on exoplanets. This project is linked to the 'Embargo Hypothesis,' which posits the existence of at least 100,000 life-supporting planets in our galaxy. The editor highlights the simplicity and cost-effectiveness of dowsing and notes that many scientists acknowledge the reality of extra-sensory information, which is not bound by the theory of relativity.
Alien Encounters: Not For Your Eyes by Gordon Millington
Gordon Millington, chairman of the Surrey-based group SIGAP and author of 'Alien Encounters', discusses the widespread belief among ufologists that governments are engaged in a cover-up of UFO information. He argues that this cover-up is undeniable, citing works like Timothy Good's 'Above Top Secret' and Jenny Randles' 'The UFO Conspiracy'. Millington focuses on the Rendlesham Forest incident of December 27, 1980, where two USAF policemen at RAF Woodbridge reported unusual lights. Their investigation led to the discovery of a metallic, triangular object illuminating the forest. Lieutenant-Colonel Charles Halt's report detailed impressions left in the ground and high residual beta/gamma radiation readings. Notably, the British Ministry of Defence initially denied knowledge of the event until the Halt document was released under the US Freedom of Information Act.
Millington recounts how Colonel Halt's report described a 'red sun-like light' and five separate white objects disappearing, followed by star-like objects. He expresses belief in Colonel Halt's account, suggesting that senior army officers, while possessing many qualities, are not typically imaginative enough to fabricate such a story. The article touches upon the US government's accumulation of classified pages related to the UFO phenomenon, which it refuses to release, even to a High Court judge.
The article also mentions the Roswell incident of July 2, 1947, as a prominent case of alleged government cover-up, with claims of crashed UFOs and preserved alien bodies. It references Kevin D. Randle and Donald R. Schmitt's book 'UFO Crash at Roswell'. The concept of 'Men in Black' (MIBs) is introduced as mysterious characters who reportedly harass UFO witnesses, with speculation about whether they are agents of Earth governments or the phenomenon itself.
The European Dimension: Surprise on Christmas Night in Hungary
This section reports an increase in UFO observations in Bekes County, Hungary. It details an event on December 26, 1991, involving Mr. Istvan Balogh, a 21-year-old who was on holiday. Balogh reported hearing a mechanical voice for eleven consecutive nights saying, "You will meet us!" On December 26th, he encountered a bright, grey, disc-shaped object approximately 4 meters in diameter and 2 meters in height. He was drawn into the UFO by a ray of light and found himself inside a single compartment with two beings. These beings were described as human-like, 120-149 cm tall, with large heads and eyes, and three fingers. They communicated with Balogh in Hungarian and informed him that he had been watched for three years and would be taken away. Their journey was described as 15 million light-years long, shortened by dimension-change. Balogh experienced a green light emitted to his forehead and later had fragmented memories of travelling over the Moon and seeing pyramids. He was returned to his original location, disoriented and with a severe headache.
The Final Secret of Free Energy – Part IV by T.E. Beardon
This is the fourth part of a series by T.E. Beardon exploring the concept of 'free energy'. Beardon critiques conventional electrical engineering, arguing that engineers are trained to 'kill the source' of energy rather than sustainably utilize it. He proposes a two-circuit, two-cycle process where a 'collector' (secondary source) is charged with potential gradient without current flow from the primary source (battery). This activated collector then powers a load in a separate, closed circuit, thus not affecting the primary source. Beardon contrasts this with the standard method where the load and the internal resistance of the battery are connected in series, leading to the destruction of the battery's charge separation and thus its potential source.
Beardon uses a watermill analogy to illustrate his point: connecting a pulley to close the sluice gate while the wheel is rotating would be akin to engineers using energy to destroy the source. He asserts that external load power is 'free' and only the cost of the source itself is incurred. He suggests that this method can indefinitely power external loads and multiply electrical potential, potentially enabling a single automobile battery to power a car with unlimited range and no exhaust.
The article also touches upon the 'electronic smog' problem, suggesting that the increased E.M. signal density from free energy usage could be biologically detrimental. Beardon claims to have uncovered a cumulative biological damage mechanism and a method for eliminating diseases like cancer, which he planned to present at the Alabama Academy of Science.
The Electronic Smog Problem
This section, seemingly related to Beardon's article, discusses the potential increase in low-level E.M. signal density as free electrical energy usage grows. It states that this phenomenon is biologically detrimental and that the author has uncovered a cumulative biological damage mechanism. A formal paper was to be presented in March 1993 at the annual meeting of the Alabama Academy of Science, offering a new definition of cancer and a mechanism for its elimination, as well as for other debilitating diseases like AIDS.
Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance
The recurring themes in this issue of UFO Times include government secrecy and cover-ups related to UFO phenomena, as exemplified by the Rendlesham and Roswell incidents. There is a strong undercurrent of questioning established scientific paradigms, particularly in the realm of energy production, with T.E. Beardon advocating for 'free energy' principles and criticizing conventional engineering. The magazine also explores the possibility of extra-terrestrial life and encounters, as seen in the Hungarian case. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into unexplained phenomena, encouraging research and the sharing of information, while also acknowledging the potential for disinformation and the need for critical analysis. The publication is clearly aligned with the interests of UFO research and investigation, as indicated by its publisher, BUFORA.

Article: Istvan Balogh Case (Hungary)
This article details the case of Istvan Balogh, a Hungarian soldier who reported an encounter with beings who inserted a piece of platinum into his thigh. Despite medical examinations declaring him sane, he was discharged from military service due to unreliability. The article notes a recurring theme of platinum implantation in close encounter witnesses and speculates on the possible interest of strange beings in human-implanted materials and medical methods.
Article: "Where Do They All Come From?" (Acknowledgement to 'The Beatles') by Gerard Surflete
This article critically examines various proposed 'alien home' locations, including Venus, Orion, Barnard's Star, The Pleiades, Betelgeuse, and Zeta Reticuli. The author debunks Venus as a potential home due to its hostile environment. Orion's stars are deemed too young and brilliant. Betelgeuse is a dying red supergiant. Barnard's Star's planetary system is now considered a measurement artifact. The focus then shifts to Zeta Reticuli, specifically Zeta Reticuli 2, which is described as a Sun-twin star. An Earth-like planet orbiting Zeta Reticuli 2 at 0.94 AU would have a similar year length and rotation to Earth, making it a plausible candidate for intelligent life. The article concludes by suggesting that Zeta Reticuli 1 might serve as a laboratory for Zeta Reticuli 2, and that instruments are now available to scrutinize these stars for signs of advanced civilization.
Article: Entity at Junction 36 by Joseph Dormer
This article recounts the experience of Raymond Durham, who, in September 1988, encountered a bright light and a goblin-like creature near Junction 36, England. He was frightened and fled, later being picked up by the police. The account was given in response to a request for unexplained phenomena. The article also notes that Paulette Goldstone has uncovered a history of strange phenomena in the area, and NLUFORG has a case of a green light seen near Junction 36.

Readers Write
Letter to the Editor from Bill Dillon: Dillon responds to Tony Burfield's experience, suggesting that the 'stimulus' (UFO phenomenon) may be a natural process that is 'indifferent' rather than malicious. He posits that human consciousness is a form of energy that persists and interacts with other energy forms, drawing parallels to the idea that 'you cannot die'. He commends the 'Embargo Hypothesis' as providing purpose and direction.
Letter from Anon: This correspondent offers a theory that UFOs are not from Earth but from the 'Kingdom of the Air', possibly linked to the Devil and operating on the mind and nervous system. They cite biblical passages to support their claims.
