Hechos que han hecho historia.

This main article by Roberto C. Mirás Mirás delves into the historical context of UFO phenomena, linking it to World War II and the rise of ideologies. It touches upon Adolf Hitler's fascination with artifacts like the 'Holy Lance' and his ability to manipulate masses. The article posits that during WWII, many participants were involved with UFOs, and post-war, the US established a committee to investigate them in 1947. The era of 'flying saucers' is said to have begun in June 1947 with sightings over Mount Rainer. The article also mentions 'foo-fighters' or fireballs seen during the war, which could be confused with phenomena like St. Elmo's Fire. It suggests that the extraterrestrial hypothesis is becoming increasingly accepted, with ufologists gathering significant information. The phenomenon is becoming a social one, potentially leading to a new religion. The article raises questions about potential government disinformation campaigns, citing an interview with Jeffersson Souza and claims by William Moore about working for the government in disinformation. It also touches upon German advancements in flying disc technology during WWII, with experts like Schiever, Habermohl, and Bellonzo mentioned. The article notes the development of disc-shaped aircraft starting in 1941 and mentions a prototype flight in 1942. It also references a 1953 report about Soviets possessing German UFO technology. The writer cites French writer Jimmy Cuieu's characteristics of human-made UFOs: they are not silent, are seen in specific areas, and began appearing around 1946. The 'Avro car' project in Canada is also mentioned. The article highlights that many historical figures have had connections to UFOs, citing Carl Gustav Jung's book 'Platillos volantes' (Flying Saucers) from 1959. Jung's theories on archetypes and the collective unconscious are discussed. The article suggests UFOs might be a form of mythical protection, with humanity waiting for external help. It reiterates the idea of human efforts to create flying machines and questions what advanced technology might be kept secret today. The article touches upon Hitler's attraction to the occult and his interest in Wagner's music and medieval poetry. It also discusses Hitler's charisma and his ability to rally masses, likening his rallies to 'cones of power.' The author concludes by stating that while the mystery of UFOs is difficult to solve, the possibility of extraterrestrial involvement is not dismissed, and other avenues should be explored.

La Comunicación Terrícolas/Extraterrestres

This section explores the timeline of extraterrestrial (ET) visits, suggesting they might date back much further than the 1947 Kenneth Arnold sighting. It proposes that ETs might have been visiting Earth at regular intervals for thousands of years, possibly to monitor the planet's state, especially after humanity's advancements in atomic and space technology. Another theory suggests ETs may have remained on Earth, invisible or camouflaged in parallel universes, or even living among us unnoticed, potentially leading to interbreeding as hinted at in the Genesis and Book of Enoch.

La Virtud está en Medio y no en los Extremos

This article by Miguel A. Chamorro critiques the prevailing ufological discourse, arguing that many UFO sightings exist only in the minds of those who want them to exist or who hallucinate about the topic. The author questions the narrative of government cover-ups for advanced aircraft tests, suggesting that UFOs might be misidentified rockets or missiles. He criticizes ufologists for being easily swayed by 'American tales' and suggests that organizations like NASA might be involved in disinformation. The article questions the logic of attributing every anomaly to extraterrestrials and suggests that 'secret experiments' might be responsible for many 'accidents.' The author expresses skepticism towards Marian apparitions and the tendency of some people to believe sensational claims. He advocates for a balanced perspective, stating that extremes are not beneficial and that virtue lies in the middle. The author believes in human agency and spiritual development through helping others, rather than relying on external saviors like 'Asthar Shiran.' He emphasizes the importance of acting and contributing rather than just talking.

Historia Moderna de los Ovnis

This section presents a series of historical UFO sightings and investigations:

La Expedición de Jekams

In September 1949, an expedition searching for uranium near Mount Rainier encountered three disc-shaped objects. Two objects hovered at 1500 meters, while a third was at 500 meters. The closest object descended, performed unusual maneuvers, and then ascended rapidly. The other two followed suit and disappeared towards Canada.

Un Avistamiento en el Valle de la Muerte

A brief account from Coral Lorenzen's book 'Humanoides' describes two prospectors witnessing a disc-shaped object land, possibly due to a forced landing. Two small beings emerged, but the object disappeared before they could be apprehended.

OMNIS en Cincinnati y Ohio

Several sightings occurred in August and September 1966. On August 19, a luminous disc was observed by Sgt. Donald R. Berger using a searchlight. The object was visible for hours and continued to shine even after the light was turned off. Similar sightings occurred on September 11 and October 23, with the object described as disc-shaped and brilliant.

Un holladero sin salida

This article by Ramón Navia Osorio discusses the challenges and discrepancies within ufology. The author criticizes the high percentages attributed to misidentifications and atmospheric phenomena, arguing that they don't account for the entire picture. He points out that while many researchers focus on tangible evidence like humanoids and abductions, the study of lights and their movements is often overlooked. The author suggests that the decrease in UFO sightings might indicate a shift in phenomena or a change in reporting, rather than a simple increase in misinterpretations. He also criticizes the trend towards кабинет research over field investigation.

Desapariciones Misteriosas

This section recounts two mysterious disappearances:

¿Qué fue de Hans Gunderman?

In 1953, Dr. Hans Gunderman attempted to test human survival capabilities by sailing alone on a raft. After 17 days, he survived a storm, and on the 32nd day, he accepted rescue from the Danish merchant ship 'Thorshavn.' However, as the rescue boat approached, Gunderman and his raft mysteriously vanished.

El Caso del Aparecido del Transvaal

Around 1899, during the Boer War, Sir James Dunbar claimed to have seen his deceased friend, John Robertson, appear at his command post. Another officer corroborated this sighting. Both were dismissed as hallucinating, but upon learning of Robertson's death, they suffered a shock and were repatriated.

El Dorado

This section describes 'El Dorado' as a 'city of Golden Light,' a subterranean city located in the post-Amazon region. It is said to be constructed with immense transparent crystal plates emitting golden light and serves as a base for celestial delegations. The article details the city's seven dimensional levels, from the physical to the cosmic, and mentions its connection to the 'Solar Manasic Sun' and 'Christ' as a dynamic expression of love. It suggests that 'El Dorado' will eventually be revealed as a new center of knowledge and spirituality.

Los Misteriosos Médicos del Espacio

This article recounts the extraordinary case of Nasra Abdalla El Kami, an Egyptian woman who allegedly underwent a surgical operation performed by three men and one woman who descended from a large, round, white object resembling a 'dish.' The operation, performed in her home, successfully treated chronic hemorrhages that doctors had declared incurable. The surgical wound was described as exceptional, modern, and expertly stitched with specialized thread. The mysterious figures reportedly changed her bandages later that night. The case has baffled local police and doctors, who are seeking a logical explanation for the event.

Puntos de Vista

This section offers an interpretation of the biblical story of the Three Wise Men. It suggests that the story, particularly the number three and their identities (Melchior, Gaspar, and Balthazar), symbolizes the seeker's mental, emotional, and physical bodies. The 'black' king, Balthazar, is said to represent the physical body, emphasizing that good deeds are necessary for spiritual realization. The star symbolizes spirituality, and the act of bringing gifts signifies the work of the physical body in service to the 'Inner Christ.'

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue of Búsqueda include the historical investigation of UFO phenomena, the role of media and potential disinformation, the extraterrestrial hypothesis, and the exploration of mysterious events and alleged encounters. The editorial stance appears to be one of critical inquiry, encouraging a balanced perspective that avoids extremes and acknowledges the complexity of the subject matter. There's a clear emphasis on seeking logical explanations while remaining open to the possibility of phenomena beyond current scientific understanding. The magazine also highlights the importance of field research and the dissemination of information within the ufological community.
