Key Articles and Sections

Instead of a Foreword...

This section features a quote from Doctor of Biological Sciences, Professor Yu.G. Simakov, stating that millions of testimonies about UFO appearances have been collected worldwide, with significantly fewer reports of landings (approximately five hundred described landing traces). The quote suggests that humans are encountering an "extra-terrestrial cosmic force" and that to understand this, one must abandon scientific dogmas and accept that contact with the unknown world has already occurred.

Paintings by V.M. Korolev

This section showcases paintings by V.M. Korolev that were displayed at the exhibition. The exhibition was held at ul. I. Levchenko, 2, Moscow, from November 17 to December 17, 1989.

Witness Testimonies

This part of the digest presents numerous case studies of UFO and humanoid encounters, often referencing research by well-known figures in the field like John Keel, Brad Steiger, Jacques Vallee, and Aime Michel. Some notable cases include:

The problem of contact with representatives of other civilizations on our planet in modern conditions

Authored by A.Yu. Novikov, the chief organizer of the exhibition, this section likely delves into the theoretical and practical aspects of potential extraterrestrial contact, considering the current state of human civilization.

Our UFO Archive

This section, curated by G.A. Ugarov, the exhibition organizer, presumably presents a collection of data and information related to UFO phenomena from the archive.

Instead of an Afterword... Are there miracles in the world?

Authored by G.A. Ugarov, this concluding section likely reflects on the implications of the presented cases and whether they point to the existence of phenomena beyond current scientific understanding.

Appendices

• Appendix 1: Questionnaire on the observation of anomalous phenomena, UFOs - This likely serves as a tool for readers to report their own experiences.
• Appendix 2: Photographs from the exhibition - This appendix would visually document aspects of the exhibition.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this digest are UFO sightings, encounters with various types of humanoids (including descriptions of their appearance, behavior, and origin), and the broader implications of potential extraterrestrial contact. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, presenting a wide range of reported phenomena and research without outright dismissal, as suggested by Professor Simakov's quote encouraging a departure from strict scientific dogma. The publication aims to compile and disseminate information on these subjects, encouraging reader participation through a questionnaire.

This issue of the publication, titled "UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECTS, HUMANOIDS, SNOWMAN" (НЕОПОЗНАННЫЕ ЛЕТАЮЩИЕ ОБЪЕКТЫ, ГУМАНОИДЫ, СНЕЖНЫЙ ЧЕЛОВЕК), is identified as Volume 12, Issue 12, with the raw date indicated as 1989. The main headline on the cover is "WITNESS TESTIMONIES" (СВИДЕТЕЛЬСКИЕ ПОКАЗАНИЯ), suggesting the content primarily consists of firsthand accounts of unexplained phenomena.

Witness Testimonies

The magazine presents a series of detailed witness testimonies, primarily from Russia, concerning encounters with UFOs and humanoids. These accounts are presented as evidence gathered during an exhibition on the topic.

Case 25: Describes a "UFO pilot" with black skin, up to two meters tall, who is benevolent towards humans. Research attributed to Kirar Pereirch.

Case 26: Details a "UFO pilot" with a glowing face and hands, 1.70-2 meters tall, sometimes carrying weapons in the form of spheres or tubes. Research attributed to Girar Pereira.

Case 27: Features a panorama of 6 pictures with photographically accurate drawings of an object that flew over Brateevo and Kapotnya on the night of June 14-15, 1930. Research attributed to V.M. Korolev.

Case 28: Mentions a "Robozerskoe miracle" that occurred in 1663 and was described in Russian chronicles in the Belozersky Uyezd.

Nikolsky R.V. (Moscow, 24 years old): Recounts an experience in autumn 1987 in Orekhovo-Borisovo, Moscow. After going to sleep, he felt his body losing control, experiencing a sensation of warmth and flight, and seeing a red and blue glow. He perceived white hemispherical figures of human height or slightly taller, wearing spacesuits. He engaged in a telepathic conversation where he was told, "We are like that. Do you want to be like that?" - "Yes." - "You can become like that. Are you afraid of us? Don't be afraid. We are often nearby. Our world is somewhat similar to yours." He awoke later, convinced it was not a dream, and stated he does not practice self-hypnosis or yoga, nor does he take any medication.

Novikov A.Yu. (Solnechnogorsk, Moscow Oblast): The chief organizer of the exhibition "UFOs, Humanoids, Snowman" and a scientific associate. He organized the exhibition in 1988 due to a sustained interest in the subject, partly from his own experiences. In July 1985, while on vacation in Truskavets, he saw an "Ж"-shaped object in the night sky, about the size of two outstretched palms. It consisted of three parallel, rough logs, with a fourth log intersecting them diagonally. The object emitted flames forward and backward, with the forward flames being brighter and more voluminous. The total size was estimated at about six palms. The object crossed half the night sky in three seconds, gradually shrinking and disappearing beyond the horizon. He also mentions seeing a photograph of a "flying saucer" from France with what commentators called a landing system on its underside.

Gurtovoy V.M. (Moscow, Major of Militia): Reports his first UFO sighting on August 20, 1964, over a naval base. He observed a large, cigar-shaped object, approximately 2 kilometers long, hovering for 10-12 minutes. During this time, the object emitted and retracted disc-shaped objects. It disappeared suddenly. His second sighting was in July-August 1986, over Baladzhar station. He saw a glowing contour of a cigar-shaped object emitting a short beam of light. After 45-50 seconds, the beam and contour vanished, replaced by an expanding bright circle that filled a large part of the sky. The mountains and clouds above were illuminated with a bright silver light for a long time.

Platonova I.K. (Moscow, 60 years old): In October 1988, near Podolsk, she was in her garden house with her dog. She saw two beings standing at the foot of her bed. They were described as flat, matte, grey, approximately 1.8 meters tall, with round heads directly on their shoulders. Their bodies were uniformly thin. Her dog growled and barked at them. She got up and walked around them, then went to the outer door and kicked it. The door opened into darkness. The dog did not follow her. When she returned, the beings were gone. The dog later ran away, became ill, and died a month later. She was afraid to be alone in the house afterward.

Specialist Commentary by A.Yu. Novikov: Mentions that reports of such robot-like humanoids appear in other testimonies. He believes the dog was paralyzed and that the witness's lack of fear is common, suggesting the visit was not accidental.

Asonova T.A. (Moscow, 37 years old): In May 1985, two months before a scheduled surgery, she woke up and saw a person in a spacesuit who told her he would help and infuse her with energy. He shone a long lamp on her, making her feel warm and pleasant. She fell asleep and her health improved, leading to the cancellation of her surgery.

Specialist Commentary by G.A. Ugarov: Confirms that the surgery was indeed canceled. The woman later recounted dreams where she saw a woman in light clothing emerge from a UFO.

Ustinova E.E. (Krasnodar): Reports seeing a humanoid over two meters tall twice in March and April 1989. The humanoid had light, whitish skin, no eyebrows or eyelashes, blue eyes with large irises, a lipless slit mouth, and a grey cap-like nose. The humanoid engaged in telepathic contact, stating that they extract tellurium from the ocean floor and that three supercivilizations have interests on Earth. Its clothing was described as a non-combustible jumpsuit, like satin, with a white tunic and a silver branch on the tunic.

Klochkova O.P. (Moscow): Living on the fifth floor of a 16-story building, she went to check the meter and saw a large circle with a humanoid inside. The humanoid was about two meters tall, wearing a jumpsuit, and illuminated by a moon-like light. It held a lamp with a mirrored surface and a light beam. She saw another circle in the distance with mountains and a tank. She felt a sharp prick in her leg. A neighbor opening her door caused the light to disappear, and she went back to her apartment, limping.

Analysis and Discussion

Novikov A.Yu. (Scientific Associate, Organizer of the Exhibition): Discusses the problem of contact with representatives of other civilizations. He notes a surge in UFO and humanoid sightings in Russia in recent years, drawing parallels with similar phenomena in the USA and Europe in historical periods. He suggests these events may indicate impending major societal changes or cataclysms, though he believes civil war can be avoided in Russia and Ukraine based on esoteric information.

He explains that information is often received in dreams. He mentions a 8-year-old girl who discovered strong biomagnetic abilities, such as attracting objects to her palms, and who had previously seen two types of humanoids and robot-like creatures in a dream, similar to those described in the Pereyra catalog and Korolev's paintings.

He also describes a dream where a girl spoke with a woman with a glowing face who emerged from a flying saucer. The content of this conversation was clearly remembered.

Novikov further explores the phenomenon of gaze influence, where a head appears to look at a person from a screen, and also mentions instances of influence occurring while awake, such as a driver vividly visualizing a UFO blueprint.

He discusses "communication" occurring at the threshold of sleep, where a person's consciousness separates from their body to converse with human-like figures outside their window.

Another example involves a man who saw a "volumetric image" of a girl on his ceiling, communicating through feelings and thoughts without words. This girl reappeared three years later, and her presence caused unease for his wife and daughter. Eventually, a fiery ball rose from a neighboring field.

Influence during sleep and while awake: Novikov posits that influences can occur during sleep, while awake, or in a "semi-sleep" state, affecting the subconscious, psyche, and physiology of individuals or groups. He notes that contact may occur without the person being aware of it at the time or afterward.

He categorizes contact into three types, possibly for research purposes. He suggests that understanding modern contact depends on specific conditions, questioning the origin of phenomena like the "Flying Dutchman" and dirigibles that appeared before their invention.

He concludes that in such cases, people at the time should have recognized these as human creations rather than natural phenomena, and this recognition was noted by witnesses. He questions whether this indicates an experiment.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are UFO sightings, encounters with various types of humanoids (including pilots, beings with unusual physical characteristics, and robot-like entities), and the phenomenon of telepathic communication. The editorial stance appears to be one of presenting these accounts as credible evidence of unexplained phenomena, often supported by expert commentary that attempts to contextualize or analyze the experiences. The focus is on collecting and disseminating firsthand accounts, suggesting a belief in the reality and significance of these events.

This issue of the magazine, titled "Unidentified Flying Objects and Humanoids" (Непознанные летающие объекты и гуманоиды), published in 1989, delves into various reported sightings and encounters with UFOs and potential extraterrestrial beings. The content focuses on witness testimonies, descriptions of objects, and the broader implications of such phenomena.

Contact vs. Influence

The opening section of the magazine distinguishes between 'contact' and 'influence' in the context of UFO phenomena. It posits that while any UFO appearance might be considered an event, not all are necessarily 'contact.' However, all observations are seen as a form of 'influence' or ' воздействия.' The text elaborates that 'influence' is a broader term than 'contact,' and contact can be a specific form of influence. This interaction is described as mutual, though typically more impactful on humans than on the presumed 'humanoids.' Psychological influence, involving the transfer of information and potential changes in human behavior, is specifically highlighted as a form of contact. The issue also acknowledges the possibility of physiological, socio-political, and technological influences.

Reports from 1989

The magazine presents a series of specific reports from 1989:

• Jakarta, Indonesia (January 25, 1989): A mysterious flying object, emitting bright light and moving silently at an altitude of 1.5-2 km, was observed. It exhibited sudden stops and changes in direction.
• Near Jakarta (January 29, 1989): Another object performed unusual maneuvers, hovering, making sharp turns, and moving in reverse, defying gravity.
• Zagorsk, Russia (August 18, 1989): An incident of 'influence' is noted.
• Moscow, Russia (Autumn 1987, reported in 1989): An 'influence' event occurred.
• Near Solnechnogorsk, Russia (1975): A report based on the testimony of A. N. Malyshev, who claimed to have flown in a UFO, citing research by F. Yu. Zigel and V. G. Azhazha.
• Eynen, Belgium (Late November 1989): Numerous witnesses observed a spherical UFO with three light beams, moving in zig-zags and emitting a light humming sound. It hovered for 45 minutes, and later, two such objects disappeared together.
• Near the Dutch border (Early December 1989): Several individuals reported seeing four to five lights moving towards the Dutch border. The Belgian Society for the Study of Cosmic Phenomena collected about 150 testimonies.
• Kecskemét, Hungary (November 1989): Two green, fluorescent beings, about a meter tall, were seen at a Hungarian Air Force airfield. They disappeared quickly, leaving behind a reddish stone similar to one found in Voronezh.
• Tessin, Switzerland (March 21-22, 1989): An orange, sphere-like UFO with wing-like stripes was observed near Locarno. It flew towards Italy and reportedly exploded into a fireball.
• Kharovsk, Russia (April 24, 1989): A resident and her daughter witnessed a golden, then crimson, object with a silver trail, described as a jet plane. The object became four-sided, about 12 meters long, and emitted a light beam revealing four tall, human-like beings inside.
• Kharovsk, Russia (May 26-27, 1989): A driver's car stalled while observing a greenish-yellow glowing object.
• Lake near Kharovsk, Russia (June 6, 1989): Two human-like figures were seen standing on the water.
• Kharovsk, Russia (June 17, 1989): A teacher observed a large sphere, three times the size of the Moon, with a clearly defined female face inside.

Other Reports and Themes

• Extraterrestrials as Guests: A report from mid-August 1989 describes a woman experiencing strange phenomena, including a dark cloud hovering above her, loss of sensation, and a green figure lying beside her. An extrasensory perception specialist explained this as an encounter with an 'energetic framework' or 'energy clot.'
• Beings in Silver Clothing (Chita, Russia, August 16, 1989): A taxi driver and his son witnessed six to seven beings dressed in silver, scaly clothing, with human-like figures and slanted heads, moving like robots. They approached a building and entered it.
• Mysterious Stone at Airfield (Hungary, November 1989): A newspaper reported on aliens seen at a Hungarian Air Force base. The beings left behind a reddish stone, which the deputy defense minister identified as synthetic resin used for runway repair.
• Explosion of a 'Winged' Object (Switzerland, March 21-22, 1989): An orange, sphere-like UFO with wing-like stripes was seen near Locarno, flying towards Italy, where it reportedly exploded.
• Mysterious Flights over Kharovsk (April-June 1989): Several incidents are detailed, including a four-sided object with beings inside, a glowing object causing a car to stall, figures standing on water, and a large sphere with a face.
• Extraterrestrials as Guests (August 1989): A woman reported a dark cloud hovering over her, a green figure, and unexplained sensations. An ESP specialist attributed this to an 'energetic framework.'
• Beings in Silver Clothing (August 1989): Witnesses in Chita, Russia, reported seeing robot-like beings in silver, scaly suits.

Societal Implications and Future Contact

The issue touches upon the societal readiness for contact, noting the prevalence of rationalism and the belief in multiple inhabited worlds. It questions whether humanity is prepared for mass contact and the potential consequences, such as seeking solutions from aliens or transferring responsibility. The use of advanced technology for potentially harmful purposes is also raised. The article concludes that no government has yet officially approached aliens for cooperation, which is presented as the only conceivable way for cultural exchange between advanced civilizations.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are UFO sightings, encounters with humanoids, and the broader concept of extraterrestrial influence. The editorial stance appears to be one of documenting and exploring these phenomena, presenting witness accounts and expert opinions without necessarily endorsing them as definitive proof. The magazine aims to inform readers about reported events and stimulate thought on the implications of potential contact and interaction with non-human intelligence.

This issue, titled "ТАИНСТВЕННЫЙ ВИЗИТ" (Mysterious Visit), focuses on numerous reported UFO sightings and alleged alien encounters that occurred primarily in 1989 across various regions of the Soviet Union, including Kazakhstan, Russia, and Georgia. The magazine compiles reports from local newspapers and eyewitness accounts, detailing the appearance, behavior, and sometimes the physical traces left by these unidentified aerial phenomena.

Mysterious Visit to Shevchenko

The first article, "ТАИНСТВЕННЫЙ ВИЗИТ," reports on a sighting in the city of Shevchenko (now Aktau, Kazakhstan). Many residents witnessed a silent, cigar-shaped object in the sky for several minutes. Local journalists interviewed eyewitnesses, who described consistent accounts, including seeing onboard lights and details of the apparatus. The article notes that this was not the first such appearance in Kazakhstan and mentions that unusual photographs are kept in the collection of scientist P. Marikovsky, where mysticism and forgery are supposedly excluded.

UFOs Circle Spassk

The section "НЛО КРУЖАТ НАД СПАССКОМ" details events in the Spassky District of Ryazan Oblast, Russia. In early October 1989, a fiery ball hovered over the village of Milovanovo. Moscow residents I.V. Sharkov and S.V. Rozanov, vacationing nearby, observed the phenomenon. Shortly after, they discovered strange, polished holes in the ground near the village, described as being about the size of a glass. There were approximately 100 holes in a figure resembling the number '1', 250 holes in a figure resembling a robot in profile, and a path with three rows of holes. On October 22, two fiery balls, one larger than the other, were reported flying over Spassk, near the previous site. By October 30, more reports of these strange objects emerged. The radioactive background in the "landing" area was measured at 25-26 microroentgens per hour.

Did They Arrive?

The article "НЕУЖЕЛИ ПРИЛЕТАЛИ?" presents sightings from different locations. Residents of Kuybyshevka village on Sakhalin Island reported seeing a glowing object they identified as a flying saucer. Specialists approached this report with caution, suggesting it might have been an optical illusion. Another case, reported by the regional newspaper "Krasnoe Znamya," mentions that "visitors" regularly visit the town of Dalnegorsk in Primorye, Russia. On a recent occasion, three individuals of unusual appearance were seen. They disappeared into the bushes upon hearing a motorcycle. Traces resembling human footprints, but much larger, were found. A commission investigating anomalous phenomena in Dalnegorsk ruled out hallucinations or mirages.

Traces of Visitors

"СЛЕДЫ ПРИШЕЛЬЦЕВ" describes an event on October 24, 1989, around 6 PM, near Vladimirovka village in the Khvorostyansky District of Kuybyshev Oblast, Russia. A strange, glowing, spherical object, estimated to be at least fifty meters in diameter, appeared in the sky and was clearly material. On the same day, mechanics from the village of Gremyachka observed a glowing, blue-silver, spherical object hovering low over a field. A flashing device rotated on top, and portholes were visible on its sides. The object then moved rapidly in zigzags over the field, projecting a powerful spotlight onto the ground. At the site, a strange, 6-meter deep well was discovered, which curved to the side. No excavated soil was found nearby, which is unusual for drilling. The well's shape was elliptical, approximately 40x60 centimeters. A second well, 33 centimeters in diameter, was found a few kilometers away. On November 13, about 30 residents of Vladimirovka observed a bright yellow-red glowing saucer for 20 minutes. The object descended, its glow diminished, then rose again, becoming brighter.

Objective Reality - UFO

"ОБЪЕКТИВНАЯ РЕАЛЬНОСТЬ - УФО" reports a sighting in Tbilisi, Georgia. On November 21, at 7 PM Tbilisi time, a glowing object hovered at a low altitude over Mt. Mtatsminda, near the television tower. A beam of light emanated from it, illuminating the city for a considerable time. The object moved, changing altitude, and eventually headed southeast towards old Tbilisi before disappearing. The newspaper "Evening Tbilisi" reported a UFO sighting near Turtle Lake, where trees were found knocked down in an unusual manner. On November 22, around 7 PM, a prolonged, lenticular, blue-green object appeared over Tbilisi, attracting the attention of everyone in the streets. Lights moved around its perimeter. The object moved slightly at times and hovered for long periods, emitting a beam that scanned the city and occasionally lingered on people looking at the sky.

Perm-Ugolnik Region

The article "ПО ПЕРМСКОМУ М-УГОЛЬНИКУ" discusses an expedition organized by the newspaper "Sovetskaya Molodezh" in 1989 to the anomalous zone near the village of Molebka in the Perm region. The expedition included specialists in biolocation, psychics, and chronal experiments, with participants from various cities. During the expedition, they managed to photograph "energy balls." One photograph showed Oleg Syromyatnikov skiing against the background of a ball. Invisible objects were detected using an electromagnetic radiation indicator. Biolocation revealed an energy field that seemed to tighten around the expedition's camp. One participant, Yu. Belikov, recalled feeling a strange sensation, as if something was pulling a tight cap onto his head, and perceived invisible, thinking entities leaning over the tents.

During the expedition, personal items like newspapers and notebooks disappeared. Some members saw glowing moving images on tent walls at night. Photographers experienced frequent film fogging, and most professional photographers' flash units failed after a few days. A television crew from Perm had their camera malfunction, with internal lenses shifting. Someone allegedly helped put heavy backpacks on shoulders. A chronal experiment involving mechanical watches placed in a thermos showed them lagging by 5 hours and 41 minutes after the experiment.

Traces of Visitors (Continued)

On the night of July 29-30, Pavel Mukhortov observed a dark object resembling a man's hat near the Sylva River. He and Inna Upenik saw two glowing eyes, about two meters apart, which then transformed into a glowing square, bisected by a diagonal line. Figures, two to four meters tall, emerged and communicated telepathically. Mukhortov asked them questions, and received brief answers in the form of glowing letters forming words. When asked about their origin, they replied, "Constellation of Libra, Red Star - our homeland." When asked about their purpose, they stated, "It depends on the center. We are controlled by a central system." When asked if they could transport him to their planet, they responded, "It is irreversible for you and dangerous for us." The danger was attributed to "thought bacteria." They refused to take him, stating, "Think for yourself."

Mukhortov described the "guests" as "something" completely black, with a head-like structure resembling a bucket in width. The expedition found traces of humanoid footprints in the flattened grass, with an average stride length of two meters. Subsequent contacts occurred, with the "guys" sitting around the campfire, sometimes appearing as mere mists. They moved and flew in square and triangular shapes, shook hands (feeling warmth), passed through people (causing a flash), and sometimes rotated individuals. Their ship was also observed.

Mukhortov warned that if one believes in communication with extraterrestrial civilizations, the possibility of disinformation from "their" side should not be overlooked. He also mentioned that civilizations have a limit, citing a figure of 69 million with "change." They stated, "Humanity is mortal, man is immortal." The universe can exist in up to 36 dimensions, while the most intellectually advanced civilization lives in seven, and humans in three.

According to "them," humans are an unsuccessful experiment by a civilization from the planet "Tron" in the constellation of Canis Major. Human "souls" are flawed, too emotional, and aggressive, capable of ruthlessness. These beings live by strict laws and cannot deviate without risking catastrophe. They accuse humans of lacking principles and fear that technologically advanced humans will threaten the universe. Therefore, they intend to destroy humanity using humans themselves, having introduced "saboteurs." There is an opposing civilization, called "space pirates," who are on humanity's side but also fear them. One group estimates humanity has ten years left, while another leaves the timing of self-destruction undefined. All human knowledge, they claim, is not our own but "theirs," subtly introduced.

UFO Over Moscow?

"НЛО НАД МОСКВОЙ?" reports sightings on December 21, 1989, by residents of Tushino, Otradnoye, and Novye Cheryomushki. Dozens of people observed incomprehensible glowing objects. Residents of Artsimovicha and Ostroviyanova streets watched a huge, glowing, rotating ellipse for three and a half hours. Red, green, and white lights flashed on its sides. The UFO was surrounded by a shimmering cloud, and a glowing column extended downwards. Police officers R. Sadretidinov and I. Nosov responded to a call and saw a round, bright red UFO flying towards Domodedovo Airport. Their attempt to pursue it in a car was unsuccessful, as the object seemed to intentionally evade them. The chase continued for about 20 kilometers from the ring road before the "ball" disappeared.

Encounter with a UFO

"ВСТРЕЧА С НЛО" recounts an incident involving a Yak-42 aircraft flying from Vilnius to Mineralnye Vody. At 1 AM, the crew spotted several objects about 20 kilometers to the left. The UFO flew directly at the plane, momentarily blinding the crew, but then changed course and disappeared into the starry sky. The Yak-42 landed safely. Another crew, preparing for takeoff, saw a UFO hovering 200 meters above the runway.

These Were Visitors...

The final article, "ЭТО БЫЛИ ПРИШЕЛЬЦЫ...", features an account from Vera Prokofievna, a resident of Kyiv, who, along with her friend Alexandra Stepanovna and her daughter, visited Kyiv Hydro Park on July 4, 1989. As dusk fell, they approached a Dnieper tributary and saw a boat with three occupants. The beings wore silver clothing, like nightgowns, without collars. They were extremely pale and looked identical, like twins, with long, wavy, light brown-golden hair and large, radiant eyes. When asked if they were tourists, they replied in Russian with an archaic accent, "We have come from another planet. Where our planet is, is incomprehensible to your mind. When you become like us, you will know. We take one person from Earth to ourselves every day. We will take you too. Our ship is nearby, we will show it to you." One being walked ahead, while the other two flanked the women, as if escorting them. The women felt an irresistible magnetic pull, rendering them unable to move or scream. Looking at the beings caused a prickling sensation all over their bodies. Alexandra Stepanovna turned deathly pale, and Vera Prokofievna likely looked no better. They pleaded not to be taken, mentioning their families and children. Through the leaves, they saw a white, barrel-shaped structure with round antennas on top, similar in color to the beings' clothing.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the prevalence and variety of UFO sightings, the physical evidence left behind, and the possibility of extraterrestrial contact and communication. The editorial stance appears to be one of reporting and presenting these phenomena as potentially real, citing scientific and journalistic sources, while also acknowledging the need for caution and the possibility of misinterpretation or disinformation. The issue emphasizes the mysterious nature of these events and the ongoing human fascination with the unknown, particularly concerning potential visitors from other worlds.

This issue of the Russian weekly magazine "Неделя" (Nedelya), specifically issue number 33 from 1989, is dedicated to reports of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) and alleged encounters with extraterrestrial beings. The content is primarily based on witness testimonies and journalistic investigations, with a focus on events that occurred in the late 1980s in various locations within the Soviet Union, particularly in Ukraine and Russia.

Reports from Ukraine

The magazine begins with an account from Kiev, where two individuals claimed to have been taken aboard a "barrel"-shaped craft that disappeared silently. A.F. Pugach, a candidate of physical and mathematical sciences and a leading researcher at the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR, reviewed a video recording of this testimony and stated his belief that the account was credible, suggesting it was "not a figment of imagination" and warranted further investigation.

Following this, several other sightings from the Kiev region are detailed. A woman named A.N. Ol'zovaya reported seeing a shimmering quadrilateral object in the night sky over the Obolon massif. A war veteran, G.I. Lerman, and his wife observed an oval fiery object above Lake Raduga, which later transformed into a silver-white balloon. Additionally, the Iskuskov family reported seeing a large, round flying apparatus near Kiev, from which people in silver suits descended.

The Natasha Barinova Case

A significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to the experience of Natasha Barinova, a 16-year-old student from St. Petersburg, who reported an encounter in the Maysky district of Kabardino-Balkaria on October 11, 1989. While sitting on a moped in her yard, she heard a disembodied, robotic voice instructing her to "Sit still." She then perceived a thin, transparent, polygonal net surrounding her and the moped, from which light emanated. She described feeling as if she were in a "net bag" and experienced a sensation of being lifted. Her aunt reported hearing Natasha's hysterical screams and finding her struggling against an unseen force. Natasha later exhibited burn marks on her fingers, which were attributed to touching the net. The local newspaper "Kabardino-Balkarskaya Pravda" reported that a ufological commission, using dowsing methods, detected a large positive anomaly (250 x 90 meters) at the site. Eyewitnesses also reported seeing UFOs at high altitudes in the area around the same time, and three days later, eight UFOs were observed in Nalchik.

The Voronezh UFO Invasion

The magazine extensively covers a series of UFO sightings and alleged landings in Voronezh during the autumn of 1989. Multiple witnesses, including bank employees, a prosecutor's assistant, a pensioner, and students, reported seeing large, red-burgundy spheres or discs, approximately 10-12 meters in diameter, hovering at altitudes of 300-400 meters. These objects were observed between 6 PM and 9 PM. A geodetic surveyor described a dirigible-like object moving at high speed. The most extraordinary aspect of these reports involved alleged landings and the emergence of extraterrestrial beings. According to multiple accounts, including those from children, a glowing sphere or disc would descend, and from an opening, one to three "humanoid" beings, described as three to four meters tall with small heads and wearing silver suits, would emerge, along with a small robot. These beings reportedly moved around the landing site, examining objects, and then returned to the craft, which would then ascend silently and disappear. The children's drawings of the beings and a symbol resembling the letter "K" were remarkably consistent. A section of the "Nauchno-tekhnicheskoye obshchestvo radioelektronnoy svyazi im. A.S. Popova" (Scientific and Technical Society of Radio Electronics named after A.S. Popov) investigated a landing site and concluded that the children were not deceiving. They found a circular area 20 meters in diameter with four indentations, suggesting the object had landed on supports. A vertical hole, possibly for soil sampling, was also found. A magnetometer registered zero field strength, indicating a high-intensity field. A piece of rock found at the site was initially thought to be extraterrestrial but was later identified as terrestrial slag.

The "Flying Saucer" Landing in Dnepropetrovsk Oblast

Another detailed account describes a sighting on April 30, 1989, by an арендатор (tenant/leaseholder) in the Dnepropetrovsk region. While watching livestock, he saw a strange, glowing light over a forest belt that moved at an altitude of about 1.5-2 meters before stopping. As he approached in his car, the object's glow intensified, and lights of blue, red, and other unusual colors flickered above it. When the "saucer" was about 100 meters away, it ascended, emitting two fiery beams. The object then gained speed and disappeared silently. The witness observed the maneuvers for about twenty minutes. Schoolchildren also reported seeing a similar UFO, noting its brightness and slow speed, and described the disc-shaped object dividing and then rejoining.

Expert Commentary and Editorial Stance

Throughout the issue, there are references to specialists who have yet to comment on some of the cases, with correspondents inviting readers to decide for themselves whether to believe the accounts. The magazine appears to present these reports as credible phenomena worthy of serious scientific investigation, as indicated by the concluding statement from a television reporter who expressed conviction in the existence of the UFO and its occupants, calling for serious scientific research.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are UFO sightings, alleged alien encounters, and the investigation of these phenomena. The magazine presents a pattern of credible witness testimonies, sometimes corroborated by physical evidence or the observations of multiple people. The editorial stance leans towards taking these reports seriously, highlighting the work of ufological commissions and experts who have investigated the cases. The publication seems to aim at informing the public about these unexplained events and encouraging further scientific inquiry, rather than dismissing them as mere fantasy or misidentification. The consistent reporting from different regions and the detailed nature of the accounts suggest a belief in the reality of these occurrences.

This issue of 'НАШ НЛО - АРХИВ' (Our UFO Archive), published in July 1989, delves into various UFO sightings, alleged alien encounters, and related phenomena. It draws from multiple sources including 'Socialist Industry', 'Komsomolskaya Pravda', 'Young Technician', and 'International UFO Reporter'. The magazine presents a collection of cases, historical accounts, and expert opinions on unidentified flying objects and extraterrestrial life.

Recent Sightings and Encounters

Khiltovka Incident (April 1989)

The issue begins with a report from near Khiltovka, citing an article in 'Socialist Industry'. A UFO reportedly activated two fiery beams from its sides and then departed. The author, V. Tur, believes a bright disk hovered near a forest strip on the night of April 30th, a fact he considers beyond doubt.

Konantsevo Encounter (June 1989)

A detailed account from Konantsevo, in the Vologda Oblast, describes an event on June 6, 1989. Schoolchildren—Serezha Belyaevsky, Sveta Karerina, Ira Byvsheva, Marina Shiryaeva, and Lyuda Rybakova—witnessed a yellowish glowing speck in the sky that grew larger and approached the ground. The object, described as a sphere about three to four meters in diameter, landed near a bush. It then divided into two halves, revealing a dark-colored being of unusual height and proportions. The 'flying apparatus' then dissolved into the air. The being, described as having a flat, board-like profile when moving, approached the children. A luminous disk was visible on its chest. This event was followed by the appearance of a second, then a third similar object, each repeating the landing and disappearance sequence. The entire observation lasted about half an hour.

Historical UFO Cases

Kenneth Arnold Sighting (July 1947)

The 'Our UFO Archive' section revisits the event of July 14, 1947, when American businessman Kenneth Arnold, flying from Idaho to Yakima, Washington, saw a group of nine wingless, metallic objects moving at high speed. He described them as 'flying like saucers skipping on the water.' This sighting popularized the term 'flying saucers' and marked a significant moment in public awareness of UFOs.

Roswell Incident and Project Majestic 12 (July 1947)

Another significant historical event covered is the crash of an unidentified flying object near Roswell, New Mexico, on July 2, 1947. Forty years later, under a law requiring declassification, information about the secret 'Project Majestic 12' was released. Near the crash site, four small, humanoid beings, who had apparently ejected from the 'flying saucer,' were found dead. Investigations indicated they were biologically dissimilar to humans, with a height of about 1.2 meters, large heads, four-fingered hands, and thin limbs. Their internal structure resembled insects, and their outer covering was rigid. Some speculated they were bio-robots, while others suggested it was a test of ejection seats using macaques. Reports suggest the remains of these aliens, along with those of over 30 UFO pilots, are stored at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Despite official statements from the US Air Force that documentation was destroyed, former intelligence officer D. Marcel claims the documents are authentic.

The Betty and Barney Hill Abduction (September 1961)

The issue details the famous case of Betty and Barney Hill, who were driving home to Portsmouth, New Hampshire, on September 19, 1961, when they were followed by a glowing object. Betty described it as a 'huge airship.' The object landed, and they later experienced missing time. Through regressive hypnosis sessions conducted by Dr. Benjamin Simon, they recalled being taken aboard the craft and subjected to medical examinations by alien beings. They described the beings as wearing uniforms, with one appearing to be the 'captain.' The examination included scanning Betty's skin, throat, and teeth, and taking a hair sample. A 'doctor' performed procedures on Betty, including inserting needles, which she was told was a 'pregnancy test.' A similar procedure was performed on Barney, during which his artificial dentures were accidentally removed, causing confusion among the aliens. Betty later drew a map of the stars shown to her by the 'captain,' which was analyzed by astronomy teacher Marjorie Fish. Fish identified the star system as Zeta Reticuli, a double star system, a fact unknown to astronomers at the time of the abduction (1961-1964). The distance to this base is estimated to be over thirty light-years, implying faster-than-light travel.

Other Incidents and Perspectives

Argentinian Paralysis Case (October 1963)

In October 1963, in Transcas, Argentina, three dogs and two dozen domestic birds were paralyzed for 40 minutes by a bright light beam from a hovering UFO. The beam's color changed from red to violet. Other cases of dogs exhibiting extreme fear and humans experiencing paralysis and strange sounds are also mentioned.

Eduard Meier's Encounters (January 1975)

Swiss witness Eduard Meier reported seeing an unidentified flying object land in a mountain clearing near Zurich in January 1975. He has since documented over a hundred subsequent visits by UFOs, providing numerous photographs claimed to be authentic and resisting attempts by ufologists to prove them fake. Meier claims to have contacted an astronaut named Semias from the planet Erra.

Scientific and Expert Opinions

Academician V.P. Kaznacheev suggests that such phenomena might be mass hallucinations or genuine encounters with different forms of life. Physicist and ufologist A.S. Kuzovkin posits that these anomalies could be manifestations of multiple worlds, and that life might exist in non-protein-nucleic forms, such as electromagnetic phantoms.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently presents UFO phenomena as a serious subject worthy of investigation, often highlighting witness testimonies and historical cases. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into the nature of UFOs and potential extraterrestrial contact, presenting various theories and evidence without definitive conclusions, but leaning towards the reality of such events. The archive format suggests a commitment to documenting and preserving accounts of UFO activity.

This issue of the magazine "UFO" (identified by the source journal "Kvik", FRG, No. 17, 1978) focuses on unexplained aerial phenomena and alleged extraterrestrial encounters, primarily from a Russian perspective, but also referencing international incidents. The cover headline poses the question: "Are UFOs Aggressive?"

Eduard Mayer's Encounters

The issue details the experiences of Eduard Mayer, a Swiss national who claimed to have photographed a UFO and its propulsion system. Mayer reportedly met with an entity named Semias, who communicated that there are 130 billion lives in the universe and that many civilizations perish at their current stage of development. A key event was Mayer's alleged flight aboard a UFO in July 1975, during which he observed the docking of an Apollo capsule with a Soyuz spacecraft and captured photographic evidence. He attributed some photographic blurriness to the unique conditions aboard the UFO. Scientists reportedly investigated a landing site where Mayer showed a hole in a tree trunk allegedly made by Semias using a beam.

Are UFOs Aggressive?

This section presents conflicting information on UFO encounters. While many accounts describe friendly or neutral contacts, others detail hostile interactions. An incident on February 25, 1942, over Los Angeles involved over two dozen glowing UFOs, against which over 1400 anti-aircraft artillery rounds were fired without effect. In October 1956, an American fighter pilot was killed while attempting to shoot down a UFO over Okinawa. In 1976, two Iranian Air Force "Phantoms" attempted to intercept a UFO. A report from near Tehran describes a UFO mistaken for a new aircraft; its electronic missile guidance systems failed, and it later returned, shedding a smaller object that landed. Two 2.5-meter tall pilots in silver suits reportedly emerged from this object.

"Firework" Over Petrozavodsk

On the night of September 20, 1977, an unidentified phenomenon was observed over northern Russia. A fiery ball traveled at high speed over the Leningrad region, maneuvered, and stopped over Petrozavodsk. Many scientists investigating the "Petrozavodsk phenomenon" concluded it was an unidentified flying object. From this object, a smaller object detached over Lake Onega. Numerous residents of Petrozavodsk witnessed a ball of blinding brightness emitting 8 rays that illuminated the ground, resembling a flower with a central stem.

UFO as a Tugboat

In February 1985, a train machinist named S. Orlov and his assistant reported a glowing ball appearing over a forest, which then positioned itself ahead of their locomotive. The UFO then began to accelerate the train, pulling it for about a kilometer at 50 km/h, despite the machinist engaging the brakes. The train's electrical systems failed. The UFO reportedly accelerated and braked the train, with the locomotive's controller at zero. This event allegedly saved 300 liters of fuel, and the crew experienced psychological shock. Scientists could not definitively explain the phenomenon.

Catastrophe of an Unidentified Flying Object?

On January 29, 1986, residents of Dalnegorsk, Primorsky Krai, observed a red ball flying northwest. The object flew silently and parallel to the ground, then at an altitude of 611 meters, it "nodded" and crashed into a rocky ledge at a speed of 15 m/s, a speed uncharacteristic of meteorites, bolides, or satellite debris. At the crash site, a bright glow, comparable to an electric welding flash, occurred. Investigators found traces of high-temperature impact on the soil, vegetation affected by an unknown type of radiation, and samples of what appeared to be a disintegrated object composed of lead, iron alloy, and a "mesh." The mesh was described as a complex carbonaceous material of unknown origin, containing quartz threads with gold wire inside. The researchers concluded the samples were not of natural or terrestrial origin.

Anomalous Phenomenon on Novatorov Street

On October 23, 1978, at 7:15 AM, a Moscow resident, V.M. Dyachenko, and his wife observed two maneuvering luminous bands in the sky, one horizontal and one vertical, with a pink-yellow color. While filming, the horizontal band moved left, and the vertical band transformed into a small star-like object that flashed and became a horizontal band. Subsequent film analysis revealed a large dark object shaped like a dolphin, and two dark lenticular objects. The "dolphin" object was lighter than the surrounding sky. When shown the developed photographs, Dyachenko stated he had not seen these objects at any point during the observation. These findings were attributed to the research of A.S. Kuzovkin.

"Flying Saucer" Over Leningrad

In mid-May 1986, a bus driver, V.N. Potekhin, witnessed a UFO. At 5 AM, his bus was on the Kirovsky Bridge with six other drivers. They saw a bright emerald-green light beam descend from the sky, described as technology thousands of years ahead of Earth's. The beam suddenly bent like a snake, which Potekhin found physically impossible. He then saw an object with four portholes detach from the beam and ascend rapidly and silently. Potekhin reported feeling astonishment rather than fear.

What Exactly Happened "Exactly At 4.10..."?

An article from "Trud" in January 1985 recounted how two Aeroflot flight crews observed a strange luminous object. Flight No. 8352 from Tbilisi to Rostov-Tallinn, on a "TU-134A" aircraft, was crewed by I.A. Cherkashin (commander), G.I. Lazurin (second pilot), E.M. Ognev (navigator), and G.M. Kozlov (flight engineer). Approximately 120 km from Minsk, the second pilot noticed a yellow elliptical spot. A thin beam of light descended from it to the ground, widening into a bright cone of light. A second, wider but fainter cone appeared, followed by a third, wide and bright one. The object was estimated to be 40-50 km from the ground. The ground illuminated by the cone was clearly visible. The "searchlight" beam then lifted from the ground and pointed at the aircraft. The object then appeared as a dazzling white point surrounded by concentric colored rings, which suddenly flashed, leaving a green cloud. The second pilot stated the engines were engaged and they were "getting away," while the commander felt the object was rapidly approaching, crossing their course at a sharp angle. The object stopped approaching after the navigator relayed a message to the ground. A Minsk air traffic controller reported seeing nothing unusual. The green cloud was directly opposite the aircraft at an altitude of 10,000 meters, moving at 800 km/h. "Lights" flickered inside the cloud, and fiery zigzags moved horizontally. The controller then saw flashes above the horizon. The cloud changed shape, forming a "tail" and then a "comma," before rising to the horizon and becoming quadrangular. The aircraft was then escorted by a "cloud aircraft" without wings, with a swept tail, glowing yellow and green. A "TU-134" from Leningrad entered the Minsk controller's airspace; its commander observed nothing unusual. The controller directed the Leningrad crew to the "cloud aircraft." The UFO then positioned itself at the aircraft's level and focused a beam on the cockpit. The second pilot shielded his eyes from the intense light, while the commander felt heat. Both pilots experienced heat. The commander later died of cancer, with a note in his medical history stating "organ damage as a result of exposure to UFO radiation." The second pilot was grounded due to disability and sometimes loses consciousness for hours, with doctors determining his body's isotopic composition had changed.

A Leningrad commission concluded that the luminous effects might have resulted from the "AMPTE" experiment conducted by the USA, Great Britain, and FRG, involving a bright barium cloud released from the IRM satellite (FRG). This is the official explanation, but the facts are presented as stubborn. N.A. Zheltukhin, deputy chairman of the commission, believes the conclusion should be that the aircraft crews encountered a UFO.

UFO - An Undeclared War

In June 1988, a group of scientists from the University of Colorado, led by physicist Edward Eugene Condon, concluded their study of UFOs. Their final report stated that, based on current knowledge, the least probable explanation for UFOs is the hypothesis of extraterrestrial visitations by intelligent beings. This conclusion was approved by the American Academy of Sciences and became the official stance of the US government. However, members of the Condon committee wrote to Kolman von Kevitzky, president of ICUFON (a less numerous but more independent organization dealing with UFOs), stating that "all scientific skepticism disappeared when the committee members unanimously accepted the existence of extraterrestrial flying craft and their piloted visits to our Earth, given the countless real proofs. Our government is fully informed but avoids disseminating information to the public mainly due to fear of consequences (primarily political). We possess extensive, astonishing, and fantastic material..." This conviction arose after the committee members visited the CIA-jurisdiction National Photo Interpretation Center. The article claims that only truth suffered, as the presented material was considered highly classified. Shortly after the first international UFO congress in Acapulco (Mexico) in April 1977, President Kolman von Kevitzky, with support from the Prime Minister of Grenada, prepared documents for discussion of UFO problems at the UN General Assembly and the Special Political Committee. On November 28, 1977, the Grenadian government proposed a resolution to establish a UN agency or department for coordinating and disseminating UFO research results. The US government's reaction was swift, fearing international control over the UFO issue. US President Jimmy Carter sent a special message to the Prime Minister of Grenada, leading to a significant alteration of the resolution's text, leaving only a proposal to present viewpoints to the UN Secretary-General. A widespread effort was made to discredit President Kevitzky and his memorandum, which was a compilation of official documents proving the reality of UFOs, their extraterrestrial nature, and aggressive actions by US military circles against extraterrestrial civilization. To achieve this, a specialist in UFOs was needed, and J. A. Hynek, an astrophysicist and head of the US Center for UFO Studies, was found. Hynek stated before the UN Special Political Committee that "the phenomenon of UFOs, even after competent study by qualified specialists, remains inexplicable and incomprehensible." The article contrasts this with the fact that, on one hand, UFOs are claimed not to exist as material objects, while on the other hand, a global UFO alert system was created in 1952, and US Air Force bases received orders to intercept UFOs, as stated in a CIA memorandum declassified on April 20, 1977.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently presents accounts of UFO sightings and encounters, often highlighting unexplained aspects and potential government cover-ups. The editorial stance appears to favor the reality of UFOs and their potential extraterrestrial origin, questioning official explanations and emphasizing the need for further investigation. The recurring theme is the persistent mystery surrounding UFOs and the challenges in obtaining credible information due to secrecy and skepticism.

This document, identified by the page number "71" on the first page, appears to be a section from a magazine or journal focusing on Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) and related phenomena. The content is primarily in Russian and discusses various alleged encounters, sightings, and investigations into UFOs, often linking them to military activities and extraterrestrial intelligence.

NORAD and UFO Detection

The article begins by stating that the North American NORAD air defense system, equipped with infrared sensors and satellite tracking, registers between 5 and 900 UFOs annually. Despite orders to intercept UFOs, the US military is described as being unable to prevent what are termed "mass reconnaissance and research raids" by alien craft targeting strategic bases, missile sites, command centers, and nuclear warhead storage facilities. In 1976, UFOs reportedly hovered at low altitudes over missile launch sites, communication points, and nuclear storage facilities, paralyzing military operations during a three-month period.

"Blue Berets" and UFO Recovery

The text then introduces the "blue berets," highly trained and mobile units specifically created for the capture, preliminary examination, and evacuation of crashed or disabled UFOs. Several incidents involving crashed UFOs are detailed:

• July 2, 1947: A UFO crashed near Roswell, New Mexico.
• 1948: A crashed UFO was evacuated from the Laredo, Texas area. This disc-shaped craft was approximately 30 meters in diameter. A pilot, about 1.3 meters tall, was found on board. An F-94 crew observed the flight and crash landing.
• 1952: A similar craft landed near Edwards Air Force Base, California, with a diameter of 27 meters. It had portholes scorched by high temperatures and was evacuated to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.
• May 1953: A crashed UFO was delivered to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base from the Kingman, Arizona area.

Further UFO Incidents and Descriptions

The document continues to recount more incidents:

• A "flying saucer" approximately 10 meters in diameter and 7 meters high, with a polished aluminum-like exterior, landed. It had an oval door (1x0.75 m) and no visible landing gear. Inside, there were tandem seats and instrument panels. A pilot, about 1.2 meters tall, in a silver suit, was found.
• 1962: A UFO with a diameter of 22 meters and a height of 4 meters landed near Kolloman Air Force Base, New Mexico, at a speed of 90 mph. Two pilots, about 1.1 meters tall, in silver suits, were found on board.
• December 10, 1964: An operation was conducted in a remote area of Fort Riley, Kansas, to examine a UFO. No pilots were present. National Guard units were involved, armed with M-14 rifles, with orders to shoot if anyone tried to force their way to the craft.
• 1966: In the Arizona desert, a military unit observed pilots near a landed UFO. In a brief confrontation, one pilot was detained and died after an injection.
• 1968: A large UFO hovered over Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, for three days. Smaller craft detached from it, and one landed on the base. Security forces approached and saw a short, stocky pilot who used a beam weapon to paralyze a colonel.

Alien Physiology and Storage

According to a former intelligence officer, over 30 frozen UFO pilot bodies are stored at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Between 1966 and 1968, 5 UFOs crashed in Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky. Crashed or captured alien craft are also stored at MacDill Air Force Base. The officer claimed that secret UFO operations took place in the 1960s at the Longley test range and the Norfolk naval training center in Virginia. A former employee of Wright-Patterson AFB stated that their catalog contained over a thousand units of stored UFO materials.

Eyewitness descriptions of disc-shaped UFO pilots include a height of about 1.2 meters, disproportionate heads and torsos, wide-set, sunken eyes, a small protrusion for a nose with one or two openings, a mouth that doesn't seem to be for communication or eating, small ear indentations, and possibly fine hair or down. Their arms are long, reaching to their knees when lowered, with four-fingered hands featuring webbed skin. They lack external genitalia. Their blood is not like human blood, and their skin is gray. Their necks are thin, often hidden by their attire. They weigh about 18 kilograms.

International Sightings and UN Involvement

The document also mentions international sightings:

• June 22, 1976: Hundreds of witnesses observed a glowing, light-blue spherical object about 30 meters in diameter over Gran Canaria. Some areas had a yellowish glow. Observers in Larosas saw a horizontal platform with three aluminum-colored consoles. Two humanoid beings, 2.5-3 meters tall, with flat bodies, long arms, and short legs, dressed in bright red attire, were seen. A "glass" tube filled with blue smoke was nearby. The UFO later departed towards Santa Cruz (Tenerife).
• November 28, 1980: In Todmorden, West Yorkshire, England, police officer Alan Godfrey was taken aboard a flying saucer for a medical examination by small, bulbous-headed beings. A tall, bearded humanoid named Posef was also present.

The UN is urged to take decisive action to establish international control over UFOs. A proposal for a "Cosmic Law" is mentioned, defining the UN as the representative of Earth's civilization. This law would prohibit Earth sciences from initiating military actions or missions against extraterrestrial forces and restrict the use of weapons in Earth's spacecraft, allowing only for self-defense in extreme situations.

Professor Herman Oberg, a renowned aerospace expert, commented on the "Cosmic Law" proposal, suggesting that the first step might be taken by "URANIDS" (presumably aliens).

Ufology and Public Perception

The article discusses the public perception of UFOs and humanoids, noting that some dismiss them with disbelief. J. A. Hynek, former director of the American Center for UFO Studies, stated in 1978 that the UFO phenomenon remains unexplained even after expert study. Soviet ufologist Felix Yurievich Zigel emphasized that the term "UFO" is technical jargon and the true nature of these phenomena is unclear, cautioning against literal interpretations.

Various hypotheses for UFO origins are presented, including extraterrestrial visitors, beings from parallel worlds, materialized psychic images, unknown physical-chemical phenomena, and ball lightning. Other explanations include human activity, military experiments, hallucinations, or sheer fantasy. Soviet ufologist V.G. Simakov believes about half of anomalous phenomena can be attributed to human technological activity, but the rest are inexplicable.

An exhibition in Moscow in 1989 showcased UFOs, humanoids, and the "snow man" (Bigfoot), featuring photographs, paintings by artist Viktor Korolev (who claimed personal encounters with humanoids), and other exhibits. Visitors reported experiencing unusual effects from Korolev's paintings, such as pain relief and warmth.

Contact and Human Readiness

The article touches on famous contact cases, like Betty and Barney Hill in 1961, and Eduard Meier's contact with an alien pilot named Semias in 1975. A Russian citizen, Anatoly Malyshev, reportedly flew in a UFO in 1975. Visits by aliens to Perm, Voronezh, and other regions of Russia are also mentioned.

The question of why contacts are not established at a higher level is posed, with the author suggesting humanity is not ready, not technically, but morally and ethically, due to environmental destruction, conflicts, and the threat of nuclear weapons.

The exhibition's goal was achieved by fostering communication among ufologists and educating the public, accumulating significant information on UFO sightings and humanoid contacts. V.G. Azhazha, chairman of the Ufological Commission, called the exhibition a breakthrough in promoting knowledge about UFOs.

The concluding thought questions the nature of these events, asking "What else can you call this?" and inviting the reader's opinion.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes include the persistent presence of UFOs, military involvement and investigations, alleged alien physiology and technology, and the broader implications for humanity's understanding of its place in the universe. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into the UFO phenomenon, presenting various accounts and theories without definitively concluding on their origin, while acknowledging the unexplained aspects and the potential for extraterrestrial intelligence. There's a clear emphasis on the unexplained nature of many reported events and the need for further study, alongside a critical view of humanity's current state of readiness for potential contact.

This document contains two appendices from a publication, likely a magazine or journal focused on anomalous phenomena. Appendix 1 is a detailed questionnaire designed for reporting observations of anomalous phenomena, UFOs, and humanoids. Appendix 2 describes an exhibition titled 'Photographs of the Exhibition: Unidentified Flying Objects, Humanoids, and the Snowman' that took place in Moscow. The publication date is indicated as February 6, 1990, with the exhibition running from November 17 to December 17, 1989.

Appendix 1: Questionnaire for Reporting Anomalous Phenomena

This section provides a comprehensive form for witnesses to report sightings of UFOs and other anomalous aerial phenomena. It is divided into 26 points, covering:

1. Date, Time, and Duration: Specifics of when the phenomenon occurred.
2. Location: Detailed geographical information (republic, region, district, city, village, street).
3. Landmarks: Important reference points for the observation site (river, lake, forest, buildings).
4. Circumstances of Observation: How the observation was made (from ground, car, plane, boat, train).
5. Object Description: External and internal details, changes in shape over time, and a request for drawings.
6. Object Size: Angular and linear measurements, with comparisons to celestial bodies or familiar objects.
7. Object Altitude: Angular and linear height above the horizon, and changes in altitude.
8. Object Color: Color, changes in color, and brightness compared to known light sources.
9. Movement Characteristics: Acceleration, deceleration, uniform speed, or stationary state.
