Contents

"Gli antichi Egizi e il NUCLEARE" (The Ancient Egyptians and NUCLEAR)

This central theme is explored through several articles:

• "Piramidi, Nucleare, Sfinge" (Pyramids, Nuclear, Sphinx) by Vincenzo Puletto: This section delves into the mysteries beneath the pyramids of Giza, questioning if they could conceal a nuclear power plant. It also examines the secrets of the Sphinx, its changing form over centuries, and whether the Giza Sphinx is unique.
• "Centrale nucleare sotto le piramidi di Giza?" (Nuclear power plant under the pyramids of Giza?) by Vincenzo Puletto: This article continues the investigation into the Giza pyramids, referencing a discovery of radon by an atomic energy team. It discusses the theory that the pyramids might have been intended as immense uranium containers, akin to modern nuclear power plants. The article also touches upon the research of Prof. Mario Pincherle and his experiences within the Great Pyramid, as well as the historical context of the "Zed" structure and its possible origins and evolution across different cultures.
• "Sfinge: Il mistero, la verità" (Sphinx: The Mystery, The Truth) by Vincenzo Puletto: This article addresses the enduring fascination with the Sphinx, questioning its construction date and historical significance. It recounts a visit to the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, where numerous drawings and photographs of the Sphinx allegedly revealed a different truth. The author revisits the theory of a nuclear power plant beneath the Cheops pyramid and discusses the controversy surrounding the Sphinx's appearance, suggesting that historical depictions reveal a different reality.

"La notizia del mese: dalla Luna energia per 10.000 anni ?" (News of the Month: Energy from the Moon for 10,000 years?)

This article reports on the potential of Helium-3, an element found on the Moon, as a clean and abundant energy source. Scientists from the University of Wisconsin-Madison suggest that lunar rocks contain enough Helium-3 to meet U.S. energy needs for the entire millennium. The article notes that China and India are also keenly interested in this potential energy source, which could provide humanity with energy for approximately 10,000 years.

"Carl Sagan era possibilista sulle visite extraterrestri" (Carl Sagan was open to extraterrestrial visits)

This piece explores the views of astronomer Carl Sagan on extraterrestrial life. It highlights his early openness to the possibility of alien visitation, citing his involvement with Frank Drake and the SETI project. The article quotes Sagan from a 1962 speech where he suggested humanity should be prepared for the probability of having already been visited by intelligent beings from other worlds. It also references his writings in "Intelligent Life in the Universe," where he considered the possibility that the Sumerian civilization might have non-human origins. The article questions why Sagan's views later shifted, hinting at possible external influences.

"Il lato oscuro delle 'aliens abductions'" (The dark side of 'alien abductions') by Antonio De Comite:

This article examines the phenomenon of alien abductions, tracing its origins back to the 1961 Hill case. It focuses on cases that go beyond simple abduction, involving sexual encounters. Two specific cases are detailed:

• Antonio Villas-Boas (1957): The article describes his experience of being taken aboard a craft, stripped, covered in a strange liquid, and having blood samples taken. He then reports a sexual encounter with a beautiful, freckled woman.
• Eugene Browne (1967): In Belfast, Browne was abducted by a beam of light and found himself on a table in a rectangular room, restrained. He encountered four men and a beautiful woman, with whom he had a sexual encounter. He was told they came from another galaxy and desired human seed for procreation, potentially for creating hybrids.

The article notes the recurring physical characteristics of the female aliens described (thin lips, high cheekbones, fair skin, almost white hair) and links them to theories about human-alien hybrids, referencing Dr. Hopkins and the TV series "X-Files."

"L'UFO 'crash' di Roswell: ormai è storia" (The UFO 'crash' of Roswell: it's history now) by Franco Pavone:

This is the second and final part of an article on the Roswell incident. It defends the credibility of Major Jesse Marcel, who claimed to have witnessed the crash debris. The article refutes claims that Marcel mistook a weather balloon for a UFO, asserting his expertise in radar and balloon technology. It also discusses the Project Mogul theory and the possibility that the Roswell group was being monitored due to its proximity to the atomic bomb testing site and the presence of advanced radio telescopes in the area. The article mentions confirmation from an NSA agent about an alien connection to Roswell and the pressure on Marcel to publish his book.

"Il Vangelo di Giuda è a sfondo ufologico?" (Is the Gospel of Judas ufological in theme?) by Antonio De Comite:

This article explores the controversial "Gospel of Judas," published in 2006, and its potential ufological interpretations. It questions why the Catholic Church declared it false, suggesting it might be due to its re-evaluation of Judas's role and its description of an experience that resembles an alien abduction. The text describes Judas being told to "raise your eyes and look at the cloud and the light within it and the stars that surround it," and entering a "luminous cloud." The author draws parallels to modern UFO accounts and speculates about a possible "Majestic 12" connection.

"La foto del mese" (The Photo of the Month):

This section features a photograph of a possible UFO (Unidentified Flying Object) captured above St Paul's Cathedral in London in mid-September 2009.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores the intersection of ancient mysteries, particularly those of Egypt, with modern scientific and technological concepts like nuclear energy and extraterrestrial life. There's a strong undercurrent of questioning official narratives and uncovering hidden truths, often suggesting cover-ups by established institutions (like the Catholic Church or government agencies). The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into unexplained phenomena, encouraging readers to consider unconventional explanations for historical events and contemporary sightings. The recurring theme is the possibility of advanced ancient civilizations and extraterrestrial involvement in human history.

This issue, titled 'Newsletter Header' with Issue 1 and Volume 1, is dated December 21, 2012. It features a cover headline "Sfinge: il mistero, la verità" (Sphinx: the mystery, the truth) and explores themes of ancient mysteries, cosmic cycles, and potential extraterrestrial influences.

Articles and Content

The Sphinx and Ancient Civilizations

The magazine begins by examining the Sphinx, presenting historical photographs and discussing its enigmatic nature. An article on page 2 describes a 1920 photograph of the Sphinx, noting an engraved slab that may represent the interior with Egyptian and possibly alien figures. The author expresses a need for clarification on the symbolism and meaning of these depictions, inviting expert input.

Page 3 introduces a news item from 'National Geographic' (April 2009) about Assyrian sphinxes, questioning whether Egyptians copied the Assyrian initiative or vice versa, and inviting archaeologists to uncover the truth.

Page 4 provides an additional note on the article "Sfinge: il mistero, la verità." It details the discovery of photos and drawings of the Sphinx and its transformations. A key element is an engraved stele, possibly depicting the original schema of the Sphinx. On the right side of the stele, a figure is identified as alien. The author recounts how his 8-year-old nephew, Fabiano, identified the figures as guardians of the Sphinx: one Egyptian and one extraterrestrial. The nephew explained that there are two access doors, one for the uninitiated (Egyptian) and one for those with knowledge (alien). Access leads to a large hall and two galleries, one to smaller pyramids and another to a 'pyramid within a pyramid' (interpreted as the inner pyramid of Cheops protected by an outer shell). An alien figure uses an energy pistol to bypass security measures like sandfalls, water, or falling rocks. Inside the gallery, scrolls and parchments containing the history of humanity are said to be stored.

Cosmic Cycles and the 2012 Prophecy

Page 5 presents an article from December 21, 2012, related to a presentation titled "I CICLI COSMICI DELL'UMANITA': APOCALISSI DI IERI, OGGI E DOMANI" (The Cosmic Cycles of Humanity: Apocalypses of Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow) given at a conference on 'UFOLOGIA DEL III° MILLENNIO' (Ufology of the 3rd Millennium) in Taranto in 2003. The author, Vincenzo Puletto, states that his work is a compilation of interviews with scientists and professors, forming a coherent mosaic of information updated to 2009.

Pages 6-8 delve into the Maya calendar and the significance of the 2012 date. The article emphasizes that the Maya, possessing 'ancient knowledge,' understood global cyclical transformations. It explains that every 12,000 years, a specific cosmic combination occurs, including increased solar activity and planetary alignments, leading to geological and climatic changes. The culmination of this cycle is predicted for the winter solstice of 2012, marking an 'Opening of the Gates of Heaven.' This event is described as a 'cosmic laceration' or 'wound of the Sagittarian arrow,' interpreted by the Maya as the 'womb of the Ancestral Mother' giving birth to a 'new epoch of the World.'

Carlos Barrios, a researcher of Maya traditions, is cited. His research, involving interviews with 600 Maya elders, revealed 17 calendars that demonstrate the Maya's sophisticated understanding of time and astronomical cycles, with some calculating up to 10 million years into the future. The Tzolki'in calendar, based on the Pleiades cycle, is highlighted. The date of December 21, 2012, is presented not as the end of the world, but as a 'new beginning' and a transition to a 'Fifth Sun' era. This transition is expected to involve significant environmental disruptions, social chaos, and wars, but also a potential for total harmony and spiritual development.

The article also discusses scientific findings, such as the discovery of a star orbiting a black hole at the center of the Milky Way (Sagittarius A), and the concept of 'cosmic energy' flowing to Earth. The 'Schumann Resonance,' Earth's natural frequency, is mentioned as increasing, potentially signaling a magnetic pole reversal and influencing human DNA. The article posits that the rapid technological and scientific progress of humanity in the last century is linked to these cosmic changes and the approaching end of the Maya cycle.

Human Evolution and Anthropology

Page 10 features an article titled "L'alba dell'uomo" (The Dawn of Man) by Domenico Arco. It discusses the difficulty in dating the appearance of humans on Earth, with current evidence pointing to East and Southeast Africa. The article mentions three types of hominids that lived in East Africa between 3 and 2 million years ago: Australopithecus Africanus, Australopithecus Boisei, and Homo Abilis. It notes that the Australopitheci became extinct about a million years ago, while Homo Abilis evolved into Homo Erectus. The author also presents the hypothesis of parallel evolutionary lines rather than a direct lineage, citing recent fossil discoveries.

Specifically, the discovery of 'Ardipithecus Kadabba' (over five million years old) is mentioned as a potential link between primates and Homo Abilis. Another discovery in Kenya, dated to about six million years ago, is also discussed.

Editorial Stance and Organization Information

Pages 12 and 14 include articles written by Vincenzo Puletto. Page 12 discusses the Sphinx and the need for clarity on its symbolism. Page 14 presents a 'Nota aggiuntiva articolo' (Additional note on the article) by Vincenzo Puletto, reiterating the alien interpretation of the Sphinx's guardians and the hidden knowledge within the pyramids.

Page 19 contains a 'Prologo' (Prologue) by Eugenio Palese, discussing the Gregorian calendar and its discrepancies with historical dating, humorously noting that the year 2012 might have been missed. It concludes with a reassuring message that the world will not end on December 21, 2012.

The 'Centro Ufologico Taranto' (CUT) is introduced as an apolitical, non-sectarian association dedicated to disseminating, analyzing, and studying UFOs. Their primary hypothesis is that some UFOs are of extraterrestrial origin. The coordinators are listed as Vincenzo Puletto, Antonio De Comite, Eugenio Palese, and Franco Pavone.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the mysteries surrounding ancient civilizations, particularly the Sphinx and the Maya, and their connection to cosmic cycles and potential extraterrestrial influences. There is a strong emphasis on the significance of the 2012 date as a turning point rather than an end. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, encouraging readers to question established narratives and explore alternative interpretations, particularly concerning UFOs and ancient knowledge. The publication seems to bridge the gap between historical mysteries, esoteric beliefs, and scientific discoveries, presenting a narrative that suggests a deeper, perhaps extraterrestrial, influence on human history and evolution.
