Publisher: UFO-NORGE
Country: Norway
Language: Norwegian
This issue of Landsstyrenytt, the newsletter for UFO-Norge, covers a range of topics related to UFO research and sightings.
International Visitor and Research Exchange
The main focus of this issue is the visit of Paul Norman from The Victorian UFO Research Society in Australia. Norman, who originally came to Norway for a workshop that was canceled, is being hosted by UFO-Norge. The newsletter highlights the exchange of information, with Norman sharing details about UFO activity in Australia and receiving materials for their journal. He also made a donation of $100 to the Project Hessdalen fund. The article notes that UFO activity is being monitored in connection with Halley's Comet, though activity in Norway has been quiet.
Project Hessdalen and Funding
An update is provided on the financial status of Project Hessdalen. The fund has received a donation of $500 from Hynek, who is recovering from brain surgery. The total amount in the fund is now kr. 5051.87. Readers are encouraged to continue purchasing stickers and pens, with proceeds earmarked for the project. Funds are also being allocated to UFO-SVERIGE to cover printing costs.
Upcoming Events and Activities
The newsletter announces an upcoming Landsmøte (National Meeting) for UFO-Norge, scheduled for May 18-19, 1986, in Horten. Details are provided for the event, including a welcome reception on Sunday evening with presentations and videos, and the main meeting on Monday featuring annual reports, financial reviews, and elections. A specific session on Monday afternoon will include a presentation with slides from a conference in Yorkshire and information on the phenomena observed there by Odd-Gunnar Røed.
UFO Sightings and Reports
Two recent newspaper clippings about UFO sightings are featured:
- Harstad Tidende (April 1, 1986): Reports a luminous object seen in the sky before 2 AM on Good Friday, which moved faster than any aircraft and headed towards Rolløya. The sighting was made by a couple in Nordmarka, Harstad.
- Namdal Arbeiderblad (April 2, 1986): Inquires about a UFO sighting in the Vikna area during the summer of 1942 or 1943. UFO Norge is seeking contact with anyone who may have witnessed this event, as they only have a vague reference from a Trondheim newspaper.
Membership and Publications
Page 4 features an application for membership to The Victorian UFO Research Society. It details the benefits of membership, including receiving notices and publications, and highlights their quarterly publication, "Australian UFO Bulletin." The annual subscription cost is $8 (Australian) within Australia and $8 (U.S.) for overseas members. The society welcomes reports of unusual aerial phenomena and exchanges information with similar organizations and scientists.
Committee Meeting Report
A separate report details a committee meeting held at Roar Wister's home on April 6, 1986. Attendees included Odd G. Røed, Hans Kr. Moe, and R. Wister. The meeting covered correspondence with the Norwegian military regarding the Hessdalen phenomenon, with the military reportedly dismissing it. Odd G. Røed also shared his experiences from his UFO trip to Yorkshire, England, noting his positive reception and the coverage he received in local newspapers. The upcoming Landsmøte in Horten was also discussed. The meeting also confirmed that Paul Norman from Australia would be visiting and that the Oslo group would assist in his travel to Støren to meet Leif Havik before heading to Hessdalen.
Contact Information and Pricing
Page 3 provides contact details for UFO-Norge, including addresses for general inquiries, the report center (Leif Havik), and subscriptions. The pricing for the Landsmøte is listed as kr. 390 or kr. 365, covering accommodation, meals, meeting rooms, and technical equipment. Participants are encouraged to register quickly.
Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance
The newsletter consistently promotes UFO research and awareness, encouraging public participation and reporting of sightings. There is a strong emphasis on international collaboration, as evidenced by the visit from the Australian society and the promotion of their publication. The Hessdalen phenomenon remains a key focus, with ongoing efforts to gather information and funding. The editorial stance appears to be one of active investigation and dissemination of information within the UFO community in Norway and abroad.
