Featured Articles and Reports

"At the Appointed Hour..." (About Anomalous Zone "C")

The lead article details the creation of a film about the first televised recordings in the anomalous zone "C" near Tver, which took place on July 24, 1993. Engineer-radiotechnician V. Kolochkov, a pensioner and contactee, reportedly established communication with an informational-energetic field ('Higher Mind') and received permission for night filming. During the night, a television camera captured several fiery balls over a dense forest. The appearance of these objects at the scheduled time was confirmed by a time-code.

The film, "At the Appointed Hour...", is presented as a project led by the respected Russian ufologist A. Zolotov, who has been systematically observing UFOs in the Tver region for many years. The research employs a unique methodology and registration apparatus, studying the phenomenon from various scientific, philosophical, and religious perspectives.

Beyond UFOs, the film explores poltergeists, clairvoyance, extrasensory perception, telepathy, and bio-energetic diagnostics and therapy. It features a healing session involving an extrasensory person and an electronic device, an apparatus for detecting poltergeists, and an interview with Father Iustin, the rector of the Ascension of Christ Church in Tver, who believes that 'unclean forces' are material rather than spiritual.

The film was a collaborative effort in 1993 by the Tver studio "Berezovaya roshcha" (Birch Grove), the studio "Pomoshch" (Help), and the corporation "Videofilm." It has a running time of 52 minutes, and was directed by Igor Shadhan. The newspaper "Tverskaya zhizn" (Tver Life) (09.09.1993) noted that the film "could become a real sensation."

"New Year's Eve of a Ufologist"

This personal account describes a UFO sighting on New Year's Eve 1993. The author, Valentin Ivolgin from Tver, was about to celebrate the holiday when the electricity went out. Venturing outside, he observed a white-blue ball of light, about a quarter the size of the moon, in a field. This object had appeared repeatedly before. The author's conviction grew when he later witnessed a similar ball rise and increase in size to 2-3 moons.

On New Year's Eve, the author prepared to approach the object again. He observed multiple balls of various colors appearing on the horizon, which he identified as anomalous objects (UFOs) due to their non-natural movement patterns. The number of balls increased towards midnight, some approaching the village closely. This 'New Year's carnival' of UFOs subsided by 4 AM. The author includes a photograph of the event, noting that such phenomena might represent a form of contact with another intelligent civilization.

"A New Type of Anomalous Phenomenon at a UFO Landing Site"

This article details an incident involving Alexei Nikolaevich Popov, a mechanic from the "Komintern" collective farm in the Sarayevsky district of the Ryazan region, on the night of January 8-9, 1991. While driving his car, a narrow beam of white light struck his vehicle from above, causing the engine to stall. A UFO, described as resembling an ambulance but with no windows or doors, descended silently nearby. A tall, dark-clad figure emerged and approached Popov's car. The alien communicated in Russian with a foreign accent, questioning Popov's presence and stating that his existence was limited.

Another figure emerged from the UFO, and then the craft departed. Popov drove to a garage where he met a tractor driver. The incident was investigated by the Ryazan Regional Committee for Anomalous Phenomena (AЯ). Elevated radiation levels (15 microroentgens compared to a background of 8) were found at the suspected landing site.

Photographs taken at the site revealed mysterious vertical light streams emanating from the heads of individuals near the landing area. The article suggests this might be a new type of anomalous phenomenon. Alexander Volkov, chairman of the committee, supported this hypothesis.

The article also mentions the results of soil sample analysis, which showed melted quartz and pyroxene, and a significant difference in copper, lead, and titanium content compared to control samples. Agrochemical experiments indicated that wheat seeds germinated on the soil samples from the landing site had a 95% lower germination rate and a two-week delay in their vegetation period compared to the control.

"The Man Who 'Twisted' Britain"

This section focuses on Uri Geller, described as a man with the ability to bend metal objects (spoons, forks, keys) with his mind alone. His abilities have been tested in numerous laboratories worldwide by specialists in various fields, who confirmed the reality of these paranormal phenomena, ruling out mass psychosis or suggestion.

The article recounts an experiment where Geller asked radio listeners in Britain to focus their intentions on their own cutlery while he performed his act. The BBC's phone lines were reportedly overwhelmed with reports from listeners experiencing similar bending of objects in their homes across Britain, Scotland, and Ireland. Headlines in British newspapers, such as "Uri Twisted Britain," reflected the impact of these events.

"Robot-UFOnauts in Yerevan. Specialists are convinced of the reality of this event."

This report details an encounter in Yerevan, Armenia, in April 1990, involving five schoolboys. While playing football, they witnessed a spherical, glowing object descend near their school. The object split into two parts, and three humanoid figures emerged. One figure, described as a robot about 2 meters tall with a gray hue and a screen on its chest, approached the boys. It displayed their names in Armenian on the screen. One boy was reportedly knocked down by an unknown force, leaving a red mark on his hand that persisted for months.

During the contact, one boy was levitated by a beam from the alien's forehead, and another boy who tried to help was also lifted. Both fell when the beam ceased. The children reported temporary loss of consciousness. The robot-alien then collected soil samples. Biolocation surveys of the site confirmed a circular anomaly and specific points corresponding to the alien's movements. Soil samples showed evidence of thermal impact and altered mineral composition. The article suggests that the two other figures remained near the object, collecting soil samples.

"Great Sai Baba Materializes the Cross on Which Jesus Christ Was Crucified"

This article recounts an event involving the spiritual leader Sri Sathya Sai Baba. During a trip in 1978, Sai Baba materialized a small cross with a figure of Christ. He stated that the cross was made from the wood of the original crucifixion cross, found after 2000 years, and that the figure depicted Christ at the moment of death, with an emaciated body due to fasting.

Later, during a storm near Ensenada, Mexico, the author and his wife witnessed events mirroring the biblical description of Christ's crucifixion, including thunder, lightning, and strong winds, which they interpreted as a miraculous reenactment connected to the materialized cross.

In 1985, Sai Baba reportedly explained to Dr. John Hislop that he had to break down the cross to its elemental particles before recreating the material for the small cross, indicating his extraordinary power.

"Your Safety is Helped Not Only by Reason, But Also by the Heart."

This section discusses the importance of spiritual and emotional well-being for safety, particularly in the context of anomalous phenomena. It warns against "contact contamination," where individuals may be psychologically affected by encounters with UFOs or psychic phenomena without proper guidance. The article emphasizes that true safety comes from "moral unity of Man and the Universe" and the cultivation of qualities like love, kindness, and sincerity.

It highlights the power of prayer and the importance of living by conscience. The article also touches upon the positive aspects of spiritual connection, citing the example of contactee Ksenia and the profound messages received by contactee Natalia Vernaya.
