BREVCIRKELN.

Magazine Overview

This issue of BREVCIRKELN., dated September 1965 (Volume 9.65, Issue 22), is a Swedish-language publication from the organization BREVCIRKELN.

Main Cover Story

The cover headline is "VÄNNER!" and it announces the end of summer and the return to studies and literature, encouraging readers to engage with the magazine's content.

New Letter Series

The magazine announces a new letter series by Anna-Lisa Helles, titled "Guds Rike - Sanningens Rike" (God's Kingdom - The Kingdom of Truth), which concludes her previous series analyzing theological Christendom. Helles will transition to a new series, "Serie H," starting next month, covering diverse topics. The first letter in Serie H is titled "Tankens dynamiska kraft och den mänskliga strålningsatmosfären" (The Dynamic Power of Thought and the Human Radiation Atmosphere).

Planned Book Publication

The magazine addresses a previously announced book publication, which was to be funded by contributions, including money from "GKSS i Göteborg." The project, which aimed for an edition of approximately 600 copies, has been deemed unfeasible due to time and financial constraints. The planned book, titled "Samtal med andra världar" (Conversations with Other Worlds), will now be incorporated into the magazine itself, increasing its scope. Help with stenciling has been promised, and the project will commence as soon as possible.

Articles and Reports

Diamonds on the Moon

An article discusses the possibility of diamonds on the Moon, citing Professor Samuel Tolansky's assertion in the English journal "Science Journal" that the Moon's surface is covered with thick layers of diamonds. These are described as black, lower-quality diamonds, similar to those found in the El Diablo Crater in Arizona, USA, which formed after a meteor impact.

Roman Catholic Church Claims the Moon

This section reports on James F. Maguire, a university lecturer at Loyola University in Chicago, USA, who declared the Moon to be "Jesuit territory." This statement was made during the groundbreaking ceremony for a new ten-story research building. The article notes that 32 lunar formations are named after Jesuits from the 15th and 16th centuries. Maguire is quoted as saying that arranging this ceremony required significant influence and global planning, coinciding with the final hours of the Gemini 4 mission. He links this to highlighting the efforts of Jesuit researchers and scholars, viewing the Gemini project as a step towards the Moon, which he claims is Jesuit territory.

Warm Areas on the Moon

Citing "Missiles & Rockets" magazine from January 18, 1965, this report details findings from a team of researchers from Boeing's Scientific Research Laboratories in Seattle. During a total lunar eclipse on December 19, 1964, they conducted extensive thermal measurements on the Moon's surface from Egypt. Their data revealed hundreds of "warm spots" with abnormal temperatures. The most significant anomaly was observed in the Tycho Crater, where the temperature reached -86.1°C, compared to -133.9°C in the surrounding terrain, a difference of 47.8°C. Generally, the main craters had higher temperatures than the surrounding terrain, which is believed to be an indicator of less compact dust cover within the craters, as dust typically acts as an insulator. The article suggests that this higher crater temperature could be caused by "celestial vegetation," particularly in the Gassendi and Aristarchus craters, where color changes, light spots, and round black discs have been observed by astronomers. Another potential heat source mentioned is gases leaking from the "dedodda grottvärlden" (dedodded cave world) within the Moon's interior.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The issue reflects a strong interest in esoteric subjects, space exploration, and alternative interpretations of reality, as evidenced by the articles on UFOs, lunar claims, and the planned book title. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into phenomena not typically covered by mainstream science, with a particular focus on the potential for advanced civilizations or phenomena in space and on other celestial bodies. There is also an undercurrent of skepticism towards established religious doctrines, as seen in the critique of theological Christendom and the discussion of Jesuit claims on the Moon. The magazine encourages reader participation and the sharing of knowledge through its letter series and publications.
