Europa's Geysers and the Search for Life

Patrice Galacteros reports on NASA's findings regarding Europa, Jupiter's moon. While no sensational discoveries of extraterrestrial life were made, NASA has confirmed the existence of steam geysers erupting from Europa's icy surface. The origin of these geysers is believed to be the subsurface ocean. Prospecting for life on Europa might not require drilling through the ice, but rather approaching these jets. An article from sciencesetavenir.fr is cited, detailing how the Hubble Space Telescope observed these plumes, which are up to 200 km high, on Europa's south pole. These geysers appear intermittent, suggesting that Europa's subsurface ocean is accessible for studying organic compounds and potential traces of life without the need for deep drilling. William Sparks, an astronomer at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, explains that the intermittent nature of the geysers is inferred from their appearance in only some of the transit images.

China's Giant Radio Telescope and the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence

Gilles Lorant introduces a report on China's ambitious project to detect extraterrestrial intelligent life. The world's largest radio telescope, the Five-hundred-metre Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST), has become operational in southwestern China. This telescope, with a 500-meter spherical aperture covering an area equivalent to 30 football fields, is located in a rural area of Guizhou province. Its construction cost 1.2 billion yuan (165 million euros) and took five years. It surpasses the Arecibo telescope in Puerto Rico in size. Wu Xiangping, Director General of the Chinese Astronomy Society, stated that FAST's high sensitivity will aid in the search for intelligent life beyond our galaxy. The project involved relocating approximately 10,000 residents and is part of China's broader investment in astronomy and space exploration, including plans for a permanent orbital station by 2020 and a future mission to the Moon.

UFOs in La Réunion

Michel Turco highlights the broadcast of a documentary-fiction titled "OVNI sous les Tropiques - l'affaire des Babas Michelin" by William Cally on Réunion 1ère. The film, produced by Kapali Studios Création de La Réunion, recounts the story of Luce Fontaine, a young farmer from La Réunion in the 1960s, who claimed to have seen an extraordinary flying object and two 'Baba Michelin' figures in spacesuits emerge from it. The synopsis details the event and provides information on TV broadcast schedules. Further details are available on the film's website and Facebook page. Georges Metz contributes by referencing the case of February 14, 1975, involving a red sphere observed over Saint Denis, La Réunion, which disappeared into the ocean. He notes that the first reported observation in La Réunion dates back to 1925, possibly a meteor. The first recognized UFO case in La Réunion is from 1968, involving Luce Fontaine's encounter with the 'Baba Michelin' figures.

Personal Reflections and UFO Experiences

Marc Bethmont shares his personal experience of filming anomalies during a walk, suggesting that his iPhone 7 captured spherical phenomena, cigar shapes, and an orange oval disk. He offers these recordings to Gérard Deforge for analysis. Gilles Lorant responds by focusing on the 'artist' within Marc, emphasizing intuition and emotion during observations. He discusses the theory of 'visitors' establishing links with 'privileged' individuals, suggesting it might involve a connection between the conscious and unconscious self, with information being generated internally or from external sources. Lorant acknowledges the material interactions and recorded images but also considers other possibilities, including the influence of the mind on matter.

The Cessation of LDLN and the Future of Ufology

Georges Metz announces the unfortunate cessation of the print magazine 'LDLN' after over forty years of publication. He expresses sadness over the loss of this respected publication, which he had been subscribed to for decades. He recalls Raymond Veillith, who managed LDLN with regional delegates, a method that contrasted with Mesnard's solitary approach. Metz notes that many ufologists are dismayed and seeking solutions to save the journal, attributing its decline to the competition from the internet. He suggests that a print magazine can no longer compete with free online content and proposes a hybrid model with a free website and a paid paper version. He laments that the decision to cease publication was not discussed earlier, as it might have been possible to save the well-known review. Sylvie and Laurent Boulanger, the publishers, confirm the decision to end the publication due to significant financial difficulties, expressing their regret and thanking contributors and readers.

Legal Proceedings and Creditor Claims

An official notice from a Judicial Liquidator, Guy Coatanroch, informs creditors of SARL LDLN - LUMIERES DANS LA NUIT that the company is undergoing judicial liquidation following a judgment on September 29, 2016. Creditors are invited to declare their claims within two months. Several contributors, including Jean Claude Venturini, Charles Provost, Patrice Galactéros, MyrBel, Michel Turco, and Gérard Deforge, express their decision not to file claims, citing the priority of tax and administrative debts and the desire not to burden the company further, especially given the hope for the magazine's potential revival.

August Wörner and UFO Sightings in WWII

Michel Turco provides information about August Wörner, an officer in the 78th Assault Division of the Wehrmacht during WWII. Wörner reportedly witnessed an encounter between UFOs and armored vehicles near Orel in July 1943. Later, during his captivity in Moscow in July 1946, he observed a strange flying object. These experiences led Wörner to become interested in ufology and to establish a database of UFO sightings.

Denis Roger Denocla's Work on Exocivilizations

Guy Loterre presents a communiqué regarding the works of Denis Roger Denocla, particularly his book "Présence 4: Vers un nouveau Monde... avec les Exocivilisations." Denocla's research suggests the presence of benevolent exocivilizations on Earth for millennia. The communiqué poses questions about the organization, governance, and societal structures of these visitors, prompting reflection on humanity's own socio-economic evolution and potential future societies. The book proposes a new paradigm for science in the 3rd millennium, reconciling science and consciousness, physics and metaphysics, through a 'cosmobiophysical' theory that aims to explain phenomena previously considered paranormal. This scientific paradigm is expected to precede or accompany a major societal revolution, shifting from competition to cooperation and collaboration, leading to a new global governance.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently focuses on UFO sightings, extraterrestrial life, and related phenomena. There is a strong emphasis on sharing eyewitness accounts, scientific investigations, and historical cases. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, encouraging discussion and the exploration of various theories within ufology, while also acknowledging the challenges faced by traditional print publications in the digital age. The closure of LDLN highlights the difficulties in maintaining niche publications and the shift towards online platforms for information dissemination. The magazine also touches upon broader themes of consciousness, societal evolution, and the potential impact of extraterrestrial contact on humanity.

This issue of "La Gazette de l'Ufo", dated 20/10/2016, issue number 31, is a French-language publication from Gwion Coat ar Roc'h. It delves into a variety of topics including spirituality, metaphysics, and ufology, featuring discussions among contributors Gilles Lorant, Sylvie Rulekovski, Daniel Hofnung, Christel Seval, and Jean Claude Venturini.

Discussions on Spirituality and the Nature of Evil

The issue opens with a dialogue between Gilles Lorant and Sylvie Rulekovski, initiated by a video concerning David Icke. Lorant expresses his agreement with the idea that "vibratory state" influences the physical, even to the point of making it disappear at higher levels, but questions the credibility resting solely on Icke's persona. He probes Sylvie's thoughts on Icke and the nature of "spiritual" subterfuge. Lorant also reflects on the paradox of physical attacks affecting beings who are "sparks of eternity" and questions how "evil" can exist in a universe driven by love and joy. He proposes that such challenges might be catalysts for progress and knowledge, ultimately serving a greater good, suggesting that the concept of "evil" could be overlooked for coherence.

Sylvie Rulekovski responds, stating she hasn't read David Icke but found the interview she subtitled to be insightful, appreciating the speaker's clarity and confidence. Regarding "evil," she quotes Patanjali: "All evil to come can and must be avoided." She also references Rudolf Steiner, suggesting that un-sown karma is compensated in the future. Rulekovski posits that if Bodhisattvas lived by "come what may," they wouldn't return to Earth. She views being "personally affected" as an illusion of separation and emphasizes compassion. Rulekovski also notes the common saying that focusing on negativity lowers one's "vibratory rate," whereas the goal should be to elevate it. She sees physical reality's limitations as opportunities for awareness, crediting Steiner for not dismissing the physical world as an illusion. The difficulty, she concludes, lies in discerning what is right, which varies between worlds and souls.

Ufology and New Publications

Daniel Hofnung contributes, sharing a YouTube link related to elemental beings and orbs, suggesting that only those with a receptive mind can photograph them. He recounts photographing numerous orbs in Bretagne. He thanks Gilles for nature's splendors, referencing a slideshow of the Grand Canyon.

Christel Seval announces that Jean Pierre Petit is releasing a book on ufology in February, co-authored with Jean Claude Bourret. This book will include a chapter on UMMO, presenting new scientific validation indices possibly linked to Petit's theory of a two-sheet cosmology. Seval also mentions that Didier has published "Ummo, l'Avertissement," offering further scientific validation. A cover image for Didier's book is included.

Jean Claude Venturini expresses enthusiasm for these updates, noting his own extensive collection of books and journals. He humorously laments losing early issues of "LDLN" due to moves.

Gilles Lorant comments on the physical format of early editions of the magazine, some being single sheets or mimeographed. He also humorously asks about Sylvie's cat's interaction with paper piles, relating it to his own apartment's state due to stacks of papers.

Lorant then discusses an article by Jean Pierre Petit (JPP), which proposes a physical basis for dark energy. He explains that JPP suggests dark energy is not an unknown repulsive force but a consequence of classical interactions between atomic and macroscopic scales, involving a new classification of matter. Lorant acknowledges the need for a more thorough reading due to the equations involved and praises JPP's courage and brilliance. He links this to other attempts to explain dark energy, citing a Futura-Sciences article. Lorant believes Petit's model is stalled not due to error but lack of funding or institutional courage. He expresses eagerness to read JPP's book on Janus, especially if it covers the UMMO dossier.

Lorant also addresses a question about black holes, stating he doesn't see the connection. He adds Guy Loterre to the distribution list upon request. Regarding the "Ummo, l'Avertissement" book, he plans to purchase it between October 25th and November 9th in Paris.

Daniel Robin announces the launch of a new platform by "Ovnis Direct" and "Ovni Investigation" dedicated exclusively to triangular UFOs. He explains that the significant number of sightings of this shape prompted the creation of this platform for in-depth, scientific study, based on witness accounts, videos, and photos. The platform's URL is provided.

Platform Issues and Future Research

Robin notes that the provided link was not working at the time of writing, possibly due to an error in the URL. He expresses hope for researchers' support to enrich the platform, which is open to all. Daniel Robin is identified as the President of Ovni Investigations, and Nagib Kari as the Manager of Ovnis Direct.

A humorous illustration of a Smurf is included with a speech bubble containing "C'est un Ovschtroupf Triangle pour Daniel Robin."

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The issue consistently explores the intersection of spirituality, consciousness, and physical reality, with a particular focus on ufology. The contributors engage in thoughtful discussions, referencing various thinkers and scientific theories to understand phenomena that challenge conventional paradigms. There's an evident interest in new research and publications within the UFO field, particularly concerning the UMMO case and the study of triangular UFOs. The editorial stance appears open-minded, encouraging critical inquiry and the exploration of unconventional ideas, while grounding discussions in personal reflections and shared knowledge.
