Page 4: "Twinkle: El Enigma de las Bolas de Fuego" by José Antonio Caravaca

This article delves into the history of the 'Project Twinkle,' initiated by the USAF in 1946 to study mysterious green fireballs observed over New Mexico. It details the involvement of various agencies like the USAF Office of Special Investigations, the Atomic Energy Commission, and the FBI. The report highlights observations by Dr. Lincoln La Paz, who noted the unusual frequency of these phenomena, suggesting they might not be natural. Lt. Col. Doyle Rees's memo from 1948 emphasized the need for an organized plan to document these sightings. The FBI's 1949 report concluded that the phenomena were either unrecorded natural events or man-made, with no scientific experiments in the US capable of producing them. The article also mentions Renato Vesco's theory that these were results of secret electromagnetic cannon experiments by the US military, possibly confiscated Nazi technology.

Page 6: "La Luftwaffe Que No Conocimos"

This section explores the hypothesis that some UFO sightings might be of human origin, specifically related to secret German aircraft developed during World War II. It references Renato Vesco's book and Rudolph Lusar's work on German secret weapons. The article discusses the 'foo fighters' encountered by Allied pilots and the initial sightings in the US in 1947, starting with Kenneth Arnold's observation of nine disc-shaped objects. It notes that these sightings were initially concentrated in the northwestern US.

Page 7: "El Revolucionario Armamento Antiaéreo Alemán"

This part of the article details advanced German weaponry developed towards the end of WWII, including chemical projectiles, air cannons, and TV-guided missiles. It mentions the development of 'suction aircraft' by the British, based on German concepts like the 'Luftschwamm' (air sponge), which utilized air suction for lift and short take-off capabilities. The section also touches upon 'Ghost Projects' that disappeared with significant funding, leaving many questions unanswered.

Page 8: "Los Ovnis de Marconi"

This section discusses the belief that inventor Guglielmo Marconi may have created a secret city in the Americas and built flying saucers. It also presents a theory that the design evolution of UFOs mirrors contemporary human fashion trends, suggesting a possible human-made origin or manipulation. The article includes a ten-point list by Renato Vesco, emphasizing that many UFO sightings are of terrestrial origin, that the phenomenon gained prominence after WWII, and that Germany experimented with various propulsion methods and disc-shaped craft.

Page 9: Continuation of Renato Vesco's List and Sources

This page continues Renato Vesco's list, detailing the post-war acquisition of Nazi technology by the Allies and the subsequent disappearance of disc-shaped craft from public knowledge. It highlights the surge in UFO sightings in the late 1940s and 1950s in North America, South America, and Africa, and the continued secrecy surrounding UFO documents. The page also includes images of a German disc-shaped aircraft and a portrait of Renato Vesco, along with his birth and death dates and a quote about his extreme confidentiality.

Page 10: "Contactos Extraterrestres, Distorsión, Espiritualidad y Ummo" by Mario Díaz Leiva

This article explores the human condition, the pursuit of pleasure, and the search for meaning. It discusses different conceptions of reality, contrasting the Western materialist/dualist paradigm with altered states of consciousness, mysticism, and paranormal experiences. The author references Salvador Freixedo's work on parapsychology and religion, suggesting that spirituality and religions attempt to answer fundamental questions about existence and purpose.

Page 2: "La Fotografía"

This section features a photograph of geysers located in the high Andean mountains, near the border with Bolivia, described as the highest geysers in the world. The text provides details in both Spanish and English.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores the unexplained, from cryptids and ancient mysteries to UFOs and advanced technology, often questioning official narratives and suggesting human or terrestrial origins for some phenomena. There's a recurring theme of secret government projects and the deliberate withholding of information. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, encouraging readers to consider alternative explanations beyond the conventional, while also acknowledging the possibility of manipulation and the need for critical thinking.

This issue of 'UMMO INFORMA A LA TIERRA' (UMMO Informs Earth), published by Plaza & Janes, delves into profound philosophical, spiritual, and extraterrestrial themes. The cover prominently features the Pelluco UFO case from 1965, with the subtitle 'A 54 AÑOS AÑOS DEL CASO PELLUCO' (54 Years of the Pelluco Case) and 'OVNI DEJO HUELLAS EN EL SUELO Y EN LAS PERSONAS' (UFO Left Footprints on the Ground and on People).

Materialism vs. Eastern Spirituality

The issue begins by contrasting extreme materialism and atheism with Eastern philosophies. Atheism views death as final and near-death experiences as mere hallucinations caused by oxygen deprivation. In contrast, Eastern traditions, particularly those from the East, emphasize the material world as a dream or illusion ('maya') generated by ignorance. They highlight concepts like detachment, 'dharma' (right conduct), and reincarnation as mechanisms for spiritual growth and consciousness expansion. The goal is to escape the cycle of suffering and rebirth ('samsara') through self-realization and union with the divine.

The article introduces Advaita Vedanta, the philosophy of non-duality, which posits that ultimate reality ('Brahman' – God) is timeless, uncaused, and the fundamental substance of all existence. The ultimate aim for the soul is to merge with this divine eternity, annihilating the individual ego through ultimate detachment.

Extraterrestrial Contact and Beyond

Beyond philosophical discussions, the magazine explores the possibility of information regarding the afterlife and humanity's destiny coming from extraterrestrial sources. It references the work of John E. Mack, particularly his book 'Contactos' ('Contacts'), which analyzes 13 abduction cases through hypnotherapy. These cases reportedly reveal messages of universal brotherhood, ecological awareness, and spiritual growth, though the author notes the potential for pathological messianism and the 'new age' propaganda surrounding such phenomena.

UFOlogy, Distortion, and Spirituality

The article discusses the elusiveness of the UFO phenomenon and the challenges of comprehending it with human logic. It suggests drawing from historical and alternative thought systems to gain new perspectives. Jose Antonio Caravaca's theory of 'distortion' is presented, explaining how witnesses might interpret extraordinary events through their existing paradigms and contemporary mental frameworks. This theory is also applied to post-mortem experiences, suggesting that perceived encounters with deities or spiritual beings could be mental constructs adapted to the deceased's beliefs.

The film 'Contact' (based on Carl Sagan's novel) is used as an example, illustrating how an extraterrestrial might adopt a familiar form (like a deceased father) to facilitate contact and processing for a human witness.

Types of Abduction Experiences

John E. Mack's research categorizes abduction experiences into types, with the article focusing on four that contribute to understanding fundamental questions from both Western and Eastern viewpoints:

• Type 1: 'Death of the Ego': This involves intense fear and rage during the abduction, followed by recognition and acceptance of the beings, leading to personal growth and spiritual learning. It emphasizes the 'death of the ego' as a precursor to transformation, aligning with ancient traditions that advocate detachment and virtue to overcome suffering and the ego.
• Type 2: Cosmic Source/Home: Abductees report returning to a beautiful, spiritual 'cosmic home' beyond space-time, experiencing intense joy. Conversely, leaving this realm brings sadness. This resonates with the idea that the material life is a temporary, necessary experience for the soul's growth, with 'our home' being a spiritual dimension.
• Type 3: Past Lives/Reincarnations: These sessions involve reliving past lives with strong emotions, providing a perspective on human identity, the cyclical nature of birth and death, and the soul's immortality. It highlights the cosmic insignificance of a single physical life.
• Type 4: Other Realities and Space-Time Distortion: Abductees describe experiencing realities beyond physical space-time, often referred to as 'behind a veil.' They report a 'collapse of space-time,' where time and space become insignificant, and they exist in multiple times and places simultaneously. This aligns with concepts of 'running the veil' to see the light (illumination) and the distortion of time and space described in Hindu philosophies and near-death experiences.

The UMMO Connection

The issue then shifts to the UMMO phenomenon, referencing a program from 'Mundo Desconocido' hosted by José Luis Camacho. Camacho, who has contact with UMMO inhabitants, asserts that despite decades of disinformation, there is an undeniable core of truth to the UMMO communications. The UMMO entities have reportedly provided information about 74 known civilizations, detailing their characteristics, technological advancement, and interstellar travel capabilities. They identify two dominant 'amoral' races – 'grises' (greys) and 'reptiloides' – that subtly dominate other civilizations, including potentially Earth, with the complicity of a terrestrial group. The UMMO message suggests that humanity must actively resist this domination to maintain its freedom.

Interestingly, the UMMO information assigns Earth an age of 3 to 4 million years, while the oldest known civilization is 33 million years old and consists of 'light beings' who have transcended physical bodies and technology, living in a state of absolute freedom and divine purpose.

Conclusions

The 'Conclusions' section posits that contact with 'higher cosmic brothers' offers keys to humanity's destiny, which lies in the expansion of consciousness and spiritual growth within a community, rather than apocalyptic events. It warns against direct contact with all extraterrestrials, as not all are benevolent, and questions their intentions, suggesting that advanced technology might be misused for egoistic gain or weapon development by a select group. The principle of 'Natura non facit saltus' (nature does not make leaps) is invoked to explain why true cosmic guides provide indirect, fragmented information, allowing humanity to grow strong and independent, much like a butterfly emerging naturally from its chrysalis.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes include the exploration of consciousness, spirituality, and the nature of reality beyond materialism. The magazine presents a perspective that integrates Eastern philosophies, UFOlogy, and spiritual growth, suggesting that humanity's destiny is tied to its collective spiritual evolution. The editorial stance appears to be one of critical inquiry, seeking to discern truth amidst disinformation and promoting a holistic understanding of existence that bridges the material and the spiritual, the terrestrial and the extraterrestrial.

Resources and Bibliography

The issue concludes with a comprehensive list of resources and bibliography, including books by John E. Mack, Anita Moorjani, Eben Alexander, Raymond Moody, Jacques Vallée, Jose Antonio Caravaca, and others, as well as references to ancient texts like the 'Bardo Thodol' and the 'New Testament', and a YouTube program on UMMO.

This issue of Criptozoologia, identified as issue number 21, focuses on unexplained phenomena, cryptids, and alleged encounters with unknown creatures. The cover features a photograph of Luis Jorge Salinas, with the title 'CRIPTOZOOLOGIA' and a subtitle introducing him as the author, born in Mar del Plata, Argentina.

Pelluco Incident: UFO Sighting and Burned Area

The magazine details an investigation into a tragedy involving a minor, which led to a wake and a subsequent sighting. The atmospheric conditions were noted, with heavy rain the previous day followed by a clear night. The event was reconstructed through witness testimonies and interpreted by the media, leading to various affirmative and negative theories. The article highlights subtle but important details, such as the witnesses in the kitchen during the sighting and the arrival of unusual personnel. It also notes the scarcity of photos from the event, which were reportedly capitalized by the newspaper El Llanquihue.

Arnoldo Flores, a health service official and administrator of a children's home in Pelluco, recounts the event. Around 4 AM, he and others heard a deafening noise that intensified, initially thought to be an earthquake. Upon going outside, they saw a very large, circular object with numerous flashing violet and yellow lights. The object passed slowly about 80 meters above them, at a height of approximately 80 meters, and then moved about a kilometer towards Puerto Montt, appearing to descend.

The following day, a 50-meter diameter area of bushes and scrubland on Arnoldo Flores' property was found completely burned. Scientists investigated the site, conducting tests including radiation checks, but the conclusions were never revealed. The article notes that only two or three photos of the case have been published, always from the same angle and showing people within a large hole. The scarcity of photos is attributed to the times, a lack of importance given to the event, or possibly deliberate suppression. After 54 years, the case remains unexplained.

Luis Jorge Salinas' Amazonian Encounters

The second major section features the personal account of Luis Jorge Salinas, who was born in 1961. He began traveling extensively in 1980. His narrative focuses on his experiences in the Amazon region of Brazil, starting in 1985. He describes his fascination with the jungle and its wildlife. After encountering difficulties crossing the border from Venezuela into Brazil, he eventually found work on a Japanese farm in Amazonas, kilometer 38 of the AM-10 road, raising laying hens.

Salinas, described as physically fit and interested in nature, recounts hearing impressive, mournful howls at night, distinct from known animal sounds. He was tasked with controlling wild cats preying on chickens and was given a 20-gauge shotgun. He describes encountering a bipedal creature with a 'gorilla's aspect' and a 'dog's head,' which he shot. The creature, estimated to be about 1.60 to 1.70 meters tall, was wide, strong, and had noticeable claws. It was severely wounded and fled.

Later that night, he witnessed an even larger creature, approximately 3 meters tall, standing on its hind legs and roaring ferociously. He describes it as an adult of the same species. The next morning, the farmhands referred to the creatures as 'Furioso' or 'Grandao.' Salinas searched for the wounded animal but found no trace. He reflects on the experience, crediting his instinct for survival.

He also describes seeing large shadows at night and hearing vocalizations that sounded like frogs or grave croaks, with the animals gesturing with their heads. He observed a female and a young one feeding on mango fruits. He notes that the animals, though large, did not appear aggressive and seemed to be using the road for transit. He also recounts an encounter with a large female of the unknown species near a fence, which escaped by crashing through it.

Salinas' relationship with Joanna, a local woman from the farm, led to conflict with her father, forcing him to leave. He later found work on another farm and continued to observe these animals passing by at night. He eventually left the area, regretting not being able to pursue a relationship with Joanna. He returned to working on fishing boats and later married Viviana, with whom he has two daughters.

Sobre el Mapinguari

This section discusses the Mapinguari, a cryptid from Amazonian folklore, described as a large, red, bear-like creature with human-like features, a foul odor, and impenetrable fur. It is said to have a second mouth on its abdomen and has been associated with aggressive encounters with humans. The legend suggests it originated from a shaman who discovered immortality.

Paleontologist David Oren has interviewed numerous witnesses and studied the Mapinguari. He theorizes that the creature is not mythological but a surviving terrestrial sloth, possibly a giant ground sloth like Megalonyx wheatley, which could have survived in the remote depths of the Amazon. Oren suggests the creature's foul odor might come from an abdominal gland used when threatened. He was shown pieces of skin and claws but could not obtain them due to local superstitions. Oren's theory is considered the most plausible among those who believe in the Mapinguari's existence.

Lobizón, Chupacabras y Mutilaciones de Animales: Teoría de los Megaterios

Luis Jorge Salinas presents his theory that megatheria, giant extinct ground sloths, are responsible for many animal mutilations in America. He argues that these animals, possessing a potent chemical defense (a toxic fluid with a smell often described as ammonia and sulfur) and surprising agility, have survived and are now more widespread due to human expansion and habitat destruction. He estimates that over 10,000 cattle and numerous other animals have been mutilated, with some cases involving human injuries.

Salinas criticizes the lack of scientific investigation into these phenomena, attributing it to a closed-minded approach and a dismissal of witness testimonies as folklore or delusion. He categorizes cases like 'lobizón' (werewolf) and 'chupacabras' as potentially misidentified megatheria. He notes that official explanations often involve natural predators or diseases, which are met with skepticism by many witnesses and researchers.

He provides statistics on the perceived causes of these phenomena: 90% of 'lobizón' cases, 70% of 'chupacabras' cases, 60% of animal mutilations, and 80% of mutilations/strange lights are attributed to megatheria, with the remainder explained by other factors. Salinas asserts that these creatures, estimated to be about 2.30 meters tall and weighing around 500 kilograms, are responsible for the fear and misidentification leading to legends like the werewolf. He concludes by reaffirming his belief in the testimonies and his commitment to seeking evidence for the survival of the American megafauna.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores the intersection of unexplained phenomena, including UFOs and cryptids, with alleged physical evidence and witness accounts. The editorial stance appears to favor the investigation of these phenomena, presenting personal testimonies and scientific theories that challenge conventional explanations. There is a clear emphasis on the importance of witness accounts and the need for open-mindedness in scientific inquiry, particularly concerning the potential survival of extinct megafauna like the megatherium and the existence of creatures like the Mapinguari. The magazine promotes the idea that many unexplained events, from UFO sightings to animal mutilations, might be linked to a single, undiscovered biological or extraterrestrial cause.

This issue of "CURIOSIDADES ANOMALAS" (Anomalous Curiosities), identified as issue number 41 and dated February 2010, is published by NOUFA and focuses on a variety of unusual and unexplained phenomena. The cover story highlights the discovery of a diminutive humanoid skeleton.

Anomalous Discoveries

Diminutive Humanoid Skeleton

The lead article details an encounter by Alex Alarcón Terán, a road maintenance official, in December 2003. While working on a road between Angol and Los Sauces in Chile, he discovered a small skeleton. The skeleton, measuring approximately 6 cm, had a disproportionately large, egg-shaped skull (1.5 cm) with exaggerated eye sockets. The body was 4 cm long, with a thin neck. The arms lacked hands and were single bones without elbows, and the legs were described as two straight bones without knees or feet. The skeleton was completely devoid of flesh. Alarcón initially thought it was an animal but noted its human-like appearance. He discarded it, and the site was later disturbed by machinery, making recovery impossible.

Parapsychological Experiences

Dowsing and Pendulums

An article titled "VER PARA CREER" (Seeing to Believe) by Juan Díaz Montes explores parapsychology, focusing on the use of pendulums. The author recounts an experience in 1989 with his wife's aunt, a 70-year-old woman from Burgos, Spain, who possessed the ability to use a pendulum. Initially acquired to find water, the pendulum demonstrated unusual sensitivity. The aunt could determine the direction and depth of underground water sources. She also reportedly used the pendulum and a medal to diagnose illnesses by observing their oscillation when held over affected body parts. The author and his wife were unable to replicate these results, while his wife's interaction with the aunt caused the pendulum to stop, suggesting a unique connection.

Historical Use of Pendulums

The article notes that pendulums have been used for centuries to locate water and for other purposes, highlighting their historical significance in various cultures.

Historical Curiosities and Calendar Changes

The Gregorian Calendar Reform

Several articles address historical anomalies related to calendar changes. The adoption of the Gregorian calendar, promulgated by Pope Gregory XIII, led to significant confusion and historical anecdotes. The reform aimed to correct the drift of the Julian calendar. In Spain and Portugal, ten days were removed from October 1582 (October 4 was followed by October 15). This reform was not adopted simultaneously worldwide; Protestant countries resisted for over a century, and Greece only adopted it in the 20th century.

Santa Teresa de Jesús' Burial

Santa Teresa de Jesús died on October 4, 1582, the very day the Gregorian calendar took effect. Her first burial occurred 24 hours later, on October 5, but due to the calendar change, this date became October 15, leading to the misconception that she was unburied for 11 days.

Cervantes and Shakespeare

The article notes that April 23 is celebrated as World Book Day because it is believed to be the date of death for both Miguel de Cervantes and William Shakespeare. However, Cervantes died on April 22 and was buried on April 23, while Shakespeare died ten days later, on May 3 (May 13 in the Gregorian calendar).

Newton and Galileo

Many biographies incorrectly state that Isaac Newton and Galileo Galilei died in the same year, 1642. Galileo died on January 8, 1642 (Gregorian), while Newton was born on December 25, 1642 (Julian), which corresponds to January 4, 1643 (Gregorian). Thus, they did not die in the same year.

The "Eleven Days" Controversy

The resistance of the English to adopting the Gregorian calendar is discussed, with astronomer Johannes Kepler quoted as saying Protestants preferred to disagree with the Pope than with the Sun. When England finally adopted the calendar in 1752, eleven days were skipped (September 2 was followed by September 14), leading to protests with the slogan "Give us back our eleven days."

The Russian Revolution and Calendar

Russia adopted the Gregorian calendar later than many other countries. The Bolsheviks implemented it in February 1918. Consequently, the October Revolution, which occurred on October 25, 1917, according to the Julian calendar, took place on November 7 for the rest of the world. The difference at that time was 13 days.

Film Review

"La Tierra contra los platillos voladores" (Earth vs. the Flying Saucers)

This section reviews the 1956 science fiction film directed by Fred Sears. It is described as one of the best films of its genre, featuring Ray Harryhausen's stop-motion special effects, which were inspired by real UFO photos taken in the UK in 1954. The film's premise involves extraterrestrials from a dying planet arriving on Earth. Unlike other films, this one depicts an initial peaceful contact attempt rather than an immediate attack. The aliens' spacecraft are described as interstellar, originating from beyond the solar system, not Mars. The review praises the film as a "peliculón" (great movie) worth having in one's collection. It also notes that the film is based on Donald K. Keyhoe's book "Flying Saucers from Outer Space" and that Keyhoe later directed NICAP, a prominent UFO research organization.

Opinion and Editorial Section

"SECTOR DE OPINIONES" (Sector of Opinions)

This section features an opinion piece by Ramón Navia-Osorio Villar, reflecting on the state of ufology. He uses a nautical metaphor to describe the field as navigating blindly without clear direction or tools. He discusses the historical appearances of UFOs, including airships and phantom rockets, and speculates on their purpose. Villar suggests that extraterrestrials may be interested in blood because it is something their technology cannot replicate. He also mentions the appearance of "biological UFOs" or "Biosférica" and contrasts them with Hyneck's classifications. The author calls for a deeper, open-minded study of past UFO cases, suggesting that extraterrestrials may have been teaching humanity rather than merely exploring. The section also previews upcoming contributions from researchers like Luis Burgos, Scott Corrales, Salvador Freixedo, Gustavo Fernández, and Carlos Ferguson.

Reader Contributions

Letters to the Editor

Several letters are included. Juan Guillermo Prado thanks Raúl Núñez for sending NOUFA No. 64 and invites him to visit Santiago. Diana, a Portuguese anthropology professor at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, expresses interest in studying the UFO phenomenon from an anthropological perspective and seeks collaboration with experts. She mentions her background in studying spiritual groups and paranormal investigations. Raúl Núñez responds positively to Diana's request, offering to share contact information. Jaime Corbalán Cáceres asks why NOUFA doesn't organize conferences or group meetings. Raúl Núñez replies that they are considering public events but need significant new material and qualified speakers.

Special Report

"ECLIPSE UNICO EN CHILE" (Unique Eclipse in Chile)

A breaking news report details an upcoming total solar eclipse on July 2, 2019, visible in the Vicuña, Coquimbo, and La Serena regions of Chile. The event is described as a majestic display of shadows and colors, a rare occurrence that will not be repeated in the same way until 2048. The report notes the significant public response, media coverage, and influx of tourists. It highlights Chile's clear skies, which host important astronomical centers, and mentions the potential disruption to animals and humans caused by the brief period of day and night.

Humorous Content

"HUMOR UFOLOGICO y del otro" (Ufological Humor and Other)

This section features two cartoons. The first depicts two aliens discussing the Pentagon's spending on them, with one noting that they haven't been touched by a single cent. The second cartoon shows figures near Easter Island, with one calculating their precise location as being on the opposite side of the Earth from the island.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue of NOUFA demonstrates a consistent interest in anomalous phenomena, ranging from physical discoveries like the diminutive skeleton to historical events, parapsychological experiences, and the cultural impact of UFOs in film and research. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, encouraging investigation into unexplained events while also acknowledging the need for critical thinking and rigorous research, as suggested by the letters section and the call for "aportar" (to contribute) new information rather than repeating old material. The magazine aims to provide a platform for diverse perspectives on ufology and related subjects, including historical context and personal accounts.
