Featured Articles and Topics

The Addingham UFO Image (Page 6)

This section revisits what is described as Britain's first officially recognized unexplained UFO photograph, taken by Tony Dodd. Philip Mantle recounts his early days as a UFO researcher and his association with the Yorkshire UFO Society (YUFOS). He introduces Tony Dodd, a police sergeant who lived near Grassington, North Yorkshire. The article details the sighting on November 7, 1983, when Tony Dodd and his wife observed a red, pulsing object with multiple lights moving silently near Addingham. Tony Dodd took three photographs of the object using a Canon Al with a standard 50mm lens and Kodacolour VR 1000 film. The images were later analyzed by Ground Saucer Watch (GSW) in the USA. GSW's analysis suggested the object was tenuous, cloud-like, and possibly emitting its own contrail/exhaust, with a shutter speed faster than 1/8 to 1½ second. The article notes that the object's backlight was likely from streetlights, and its red glow was self-illumination. GSW concluded that the image was not a hoax and was not a contrail, but an anomalous image. They addressed questions about potential military activity, concluding there were no rocket test areas nearby and military aircraft were unlikely to fly at such low altitudes in the area.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently focuses on UFO sightings, investigations, and historical cases, alongside other paranormal phenomena such as hauntings and mythology. The editorial stance, as expressed by the joint editors, emphasizes critical investigation and the pursuit of truth, even when it challenges conventional narratives or witness accounts. There is a clear commitment to providing information and encouraging readers to question and analyze the evidence presented.

This issue of Investigator magazine features articles on UFO sightings and the intriguing phenomenon of cellular memory. The magazine presents a blend of investigative reporting, case studies, and discussions on fringe science topics.

UFO Sighting: The Dodd Photographs

The issue highlights a series of photographs taken by Tony Dodd, presented by Ground Saucer Watch (GSW) as Britain's first confirmed UFO photographs. William H. Spaulding, Director of Ground Saucer Watch, provides an analysis of the images. The Unidentified Image (UI) is described as structured, approximately 30 feet in diameter, and about a quarter of a mile from the witness. GSW classifies these as 'nocturnal lights, unknowns,' differentiating them from conventional aircraft or other known phenomena. The analysis suggests the UI appears distant and exhibits slight lateral movement between shots. The photographs themselves show a near-circular pattern of three major lights, with a tenuous shape on the right side, possibly an exhaust or smoke. GSW notes that the object was seen and photographed in the east at 7:50 pm, with the sun having set at 4:00 pm. The nearest military airfield is 30 miles away, and there are no rocket test areas within 200 miles. The hill over which the object passed is recorded at 871 feet in height, approximately two miles away. Tony Dodd recounts that the object was initially closer but moved away. He also notes that the object appeared to be covered in small red lights that pulsed together. Philip Mantle, former Director of Investigations for the British UFO Research Association, vouches for Tony Dodd's experience and the authenticity of the photographs, suggesting they could benefit from re-analysis with modern technology.

Cellular Memory: Transplants and Inherited Traits

A significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to the concept of 'cellular memory,' exploring how memories or behaviors might be transferred from organ donors to recipients. Malcolm Robinson, founder of Strange Phenomena Investigations, presents several case studies and discusses the phenomenon.

Case Studies of Cellular Memory

• Case Study 1: An 18-year-old girl received a heart from an 18-year-old boy and, despite never meeting his parents or hearing his music, could complete the phrases of a song he had written about his impending death.
• Case Study 2: A seven-month-old baby boy received a heart from a 16-month-old boy with mild cerebral palsy. After the transplant, the recipient developed stiffness and shaking on his left side, mirroring the donor's condition.
• Case Study 3: A 47-year-old white male received the heart of a 17-year-old African-American male and developed a newfound love for classical music and playing the violin, similar to the donor who died clutching his violin case.
• Case Study 4: A 29-year-old lesbian, who was a fast-food junkie, received the heart of a 19-year-old vegetarian woman. After the transplant, she found meat made her sick and she was no longer attracted to women, becoming engaged to a man.
• Case Study 5: Claire Sylvia received a heart and lung transplant and began craving beer and chicken nuggets, foods she had no prior taste for. Her donor's favorite food was chicken nuggets, and he had purchased some just before his fatal motorcycle accident.
• Case Study 6: A young man, after transplant surgery, began using the phrase 'Everything is copastic,' a phrase his mother had never heard him use before. This phrase was later discovered to be a signal used by the donor to his wife after arguments.
• Case Study 7: An eight-year-old girl received the heart of a ten-year-old girl who had been tragically murdered. The recipient experienced vivid nightmares of the murder, including details of the perpetrator, weapon, and location. This information, provided to the police, led to the arrest and conviction of the killer.

Explanations and Skepticism

Malcolm Robinson discusses various perspectives on cellular memory. He references a Discovery UK Health program that featured medical authorities and individuals who experienced the phenomenon. He also touches upon the idea of 'genetic memory,' suggesting that what appears to be past-life regression might be inherited memories from ancestors. The concept of cryptomnesia is also explored as a potential explanation, where forgotten memories from books or media might resurface under hypnosis.

Jeff Punch, a transplant surgeon from the University of Michigan, expresses skepticism, stating that there is no medical evidence for cellular memory and that such reports might be fantasy or coincidence. He suggests that post-transplant behaviors could be influenced by medication or simply by watching television programs during recovery.

Professor Gary Schwartz, interviewed on a TV show, believes that cells of living tissue have the capacity to remember. He argues that energy, like light, never dies but moves forward, drawing a parallel to the light from distant stars reaching us millions of years later.

Inherent Dangers and Ethical Considerations

The article raises concerns about the potential dangers of cellular memory, particularly if a recipient inherits the 'memories' or impulses of a serial killer. It questions how such a phenomenon would be handled in a court of law, potentially used as a defense for criminal acts.

The ethical implications of organ donation are also considered, with a doctor noting that revealing the possibility of memory transfer could deter people from donating organs, impacting the availability of life-saving transplants.

Related Topics: Cloning and Kirlian Photography

The magazine briefly touches upon related concepts. Cloning is discussed in the context of whether a cloned life form would possess its own soul, mind, and memories. Kirlian photography is presented as a fringe science that captures 'auras' or 'biofields,' with researchers claiming it can detect a person's health and emotional state.

Conclusion

Malcolm Robinson concludes that while the phenomenon of cellular memory is open to question, the case studies suggest 'something is happening.' He posits that if it is cellular memory, it is a natural aspect of the human body rather than something spiritual or paranormal. The article also includes references and suggested follow-up reading on cellular memory and UFO research.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores unexplained phenomena, UFOs, and the boundaries of scientific understanding. The editorial stance appears to be one of open-minded investigation, presenting evidence and case studies for the reader to assess, while also acknowledging skeptical viewpoints. There is a clear interest in topics that challenge conventional scientific paradigms, particularly in the realms of consciousness, memory, and the unexplained. The recurring theme is the exploration of mysteries that lie beyond current scientific explanation, encouraging readers to consider possibilities that may seem unusual or even 'ridiculous' at first glance.

This issue of LEFT... magazine, dated December 17, 2016, focuses heavily on the ongoing debates and controversies surrounding the Rendlesham Forest Incident (RFI) and related UFOlogy matters. The cover features two men and the headline 'At East Gate,' hinting at the central theme of disputed accounts and whistleblowers.

Peter Robbins' Statement and the 'East Gate' Split

The issue opens with a report on UFO investigator and author Peter Robbins' public statement announcing his separation from his co-author, Larry Warren, who is described as an ex-US serviceman and self-professed whistleblower of the RFI. Robbins states that disagreements over the past six months have led to this decision, and he wishes to keep the reasons personal for now. The article notes that while Warren remains silent, the public silence from both parties raises questions about the truthfulness of Warren's account and the information presented in their co-authored book, 'Left At East Gate.' The piece highlights Warren's claim of being the RFI whistleblower, while also reminding readers that others like Dot Street, Brenda Butler, and Jenny Randles were also involved in the story's release.

Philip Mantle's Interview with Steve Longero and the Resulting 'Rumpus'

Philip Mantle, author, details his brief interview with Steve Longero, a USAF retired individual stationed at RAF Bentwaters in December 1980, who claims to be a witness to UFO events there. Mantle emphasizes that this was an exclusive and not an in-depth interview. Following the publication of this interview in OLM, it gained international attention, appearing in The Sun newspaper. However, it triggered a significant backlash within the UFO community, described as a 'Right Rendlesham Rumpus.' Mantle reports being criticized for his questions and the interview's content, with RFI witness John Burroughs even calling it 'botched.' Despite the controversy, Burroughs supported Longero's claim of being present. Mantle expresses his frustration with the UFOlogical in-fighting but reaffirms his commitment to publishing material he deems important.

Responses and Counter-Claims Regarding Longero's Account

The magazine presents responses from various individuals regarding Steve Longero's interview. John F. Burroughs states he will explain his knowledge of Longero. Longero himself clarifies his role on 'C flight' and mentions that no weapons were taken into the forest, with Master Sergeant Chandler as the flight chief. Adrian C. Bustinza III notes he didn't know Longero personally. Longero expresses his reluctance to get involved in further analysis and questioning, preferring to focus on his security work. He insists that only those who were present can truly speak about the events.

Peter Robbins confirms Steve Longero as an authentic witness to the RFI, based on exchanged emails, though they have never met in person. Nick Pope, however, expresses skepticism, suggesting Longero might be blending elements from different nights and questioning his mention of Larry Warren's presence in the forest, stating it's virtually certain Warren was not involved in the incidents themselves.

Colonel Charles Halt, a key figure in the RFI investigation, disputes several of Longero's claims. Halt states he was not present on the first night and was skeptical of the UFO claims. He also asserts that Larry Warren was not present on the night Halt was in the forest, and others have confirmed Warren was in the dorm. Halt suggests Longero might be trying to help Warren, who was the first to speak to the press. Halt also refutes Longero's claim that Colonel Halt verified his documents as real, stating he only briefly saw them and was not in a position to authenticate them. Halt also questions the existence of an 'Eye Doctor' Longero claims examined him and suggests an appointment slip might be for a discharge physical.

Barry Greenwood, author of 'Clear Intent,' also weighs in, stating that photographs provided by Larry Warren, which Warren claims were taken on the morning of December 28, 1980, were actually taken during his honeymoon. Greenwood also notes that air bubbles in scanned photos might be mistaken for UFOs. He criticizes the lack of transparency and the refusal to have documents examined, suggesting it fuels doubt and conspiracy.

The 'UFO Lands in Suffolk' Controversy and Document Authenticity

The issue revisits the 'UFO Lands in Suffolk' headline from the News of the World. Evidence has emerged that suggests Larry Warren's account might be dubious, with claims that photographs he provided are manipulated. Barry Greenwood states that the photos were taken during Warren's honeymoon and that he has a solitary A10 warthog photo without UFOs. The debate has caused a significant divide in British and American ufology. The article questions why Warren, a self-proclaimed witness, is reluctant to have his documents examined, especially when the offer was made for analysis at no cost to him. The author notes that asking simple questions of Warren often resulted in a 'torrent of abuse,' making people suspicious.

Investigation into 'Hull's Most Haunted House'

Mike Covell investigates the claims surrounding 'Hull's Most Haunted House' at 39 De Grey Street. He explores historical records, including trade directories and newspapers, to verify claims that the property was a funeral parlour, orphanage, or hostel. Covell finds no evidence to support these claims. He notes that while many properties have myths, verifiable historical evidence is often lacking. The investigation into 39 De Grey Street found no record of a funeral parlour, orphanage, or hostel, despite claims made about its dark history.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue is characterized by a deep dive into the complexities and controversies within ufology, particularly concerning the Rendlesham Forest Incident. The magazine presents multiple perspectives, highlighting conflicting witness testimonies, disputes over document authenticity, and the personal relationships within the UFO research community. The editorial stance, as stated by Outer Limits Magazine, is to provide a platform for debate and include input from all involved parties, without taking sides. The recurring theme is the struggle to uncover the 'truth' amidst conflicting narratives and the challenges of verifying evidence in a field prone to in-fighting and speculation. The magazine emphasizes the importance of seeking truth and the need for verifiable data.

This issue of Outer Limits Magazine, dated 2017, is a compilation of articles covering local history, paranormal experiences, mythology, and UFO-related events. It features contributions from various authors and researchers, including Mike Covell, Tami Gregory, and Malcolm Robinson.

Hull Property Investigation

The magazine begins with an in-depth look at the history of a property on De Grey Street in Hull, authored by Mike Covell. He details his research process, utilizing historical newspapers and archives at the Hull History Centre. Covell debunks sensationalist claims about the property, finding no evidence of murders or sinister events. Instead, he uncovers factual records of ownership, including the Hart family's purchase in the 1930s and their children's marriages. The article emphasizes the importance of relying on verifiable historical facts over fabricated stories, noting that while the property has a history, it is not a dark one. The research involved cross-referencing trade directories, electoral rolls, and newspaper archives, with the property being vacant only in 1930 when the Hardaker family sold it to the Hart family. The property's sale advertisement in November 1930 described it as a brick building with stables and a repository, suitable for various businesses. Covell concludes that many sensational claims about properties are manufactured for marketing purposes, and historical records are key to discerning truth from fiction.

An Experience to Remember

Authored by Tami Gregory, this personal narrative explores the author's journey into the paranormal, attributing it to early life experiences and vivid dreams that often mirrored reality. Gregory recounts how her curiosity about the paranormal stemmed from these early occurrences, which she initially struggled to articulate or have understood by her family. She describes finding a connection with others who shared similar experiences through social media, realizing she was not alone. A pivotal childhood experience at age 10, involving the comforting presence of her deceased grandfather, 'Pap,' solidified her belief and desire to explore the paranormal. Gregory also details her participation in séances, including an incident where she felt tucked in by a loving presence, which she attributed to her grandfather.

Vampire Mythology

This section delves into the rich history and evolution of vampire mythology. It begins by referencing Bram Stoker's iconic novel 'Dracula' and its impact on popular culture. The article traces the origins of vampire legends back to ancient Greek mythology, mentioning figures like Empusa and Lamia, and their spread across Europe and Asia via trade routes. It highlights the Greek 'vrykolakas' and its similarities to the European vampire. The text discusses various means by which vampirism was believed to occur in Greek folklore, such as excommunication or curses, and the practices used to combat it, including exhumation and piercing the heart with iron nails. The article also examines the association of bats with vampires, noting that while bats are integral to modern vampire lore, this connection was solidified in the 16th century and popularized by authors like James Malcom Rhymer and Bram Stoker. The narrative also includes the mythological tale of Ambrogio, considered the first vampire, his curse by Apollo, his deal with Hades, and his eventual union with Selene, who became the goddess of moonlight, creating the first vampires.

The SPI Files!

Malcolm Robinson contributes a segment titled 'The SPI Files!', focusing on paranormal phenomena, particularly 'apports.' He defines apports as the paranormal transference of objects, often attributed to spirits. Robinson shares his personal experiences and research, including the 'Chingford Apports' case involving a psychic named Monique Elton and a séance in North London. He recounts attending a séance where various objects materialized, and describes an unusual interaction with two ladies who seemed more interested in personal matters than the paranormal investigation. He also mentions the 'Dunfermline Case' from 1998, where he and Councillor Billy Buchanan investigated a haunted house and observed 'apports.' Robinson emphasizes the importance of critical thinking and questioning phenomena, distinguishing between genuine experiences and potential fraud or misinterpretation.

Outer Limits Magazine Conference

Page 8 promotes the 'Outer Limits Magazine Conference: 70 Years Of The Modern UFO Era' held in 2017. It lists several speakers, including Philip Mantle, Malcolm Robinson, Russ Callaghan, Paul Sinclair, and Mike Covell. Ticket information is provided, with a price of £10, payable to Chris Evers, and an address in Hull for ticket purchases. A website link for more information and PayPal tickets is also included.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently promotes a critical yet open-minded approach to paranormal and historical investigations. It encourages readers to seek factual evidence and question sensational claims, particularly in the context of local history and alleged supernatural events. The editorial stance appears to be one of debunking misinformation while still exploring genuine paranormal phenomena and historical mysteries. The inclusion of personal experiences alongside historical research suggests a broad interest in the unexplained, from local hauntings and historical property investigations to ancient mythology and modern UFO conferences.

This issue of Outer Limits Magazine appears to be a compilation of articles and advertisements related to paranormal investigations and UFO sightings, with a strong emphasis on upcoming conferences and events. The content includes personal accounts of alleged paranormal phenomena and UFO encounters, as well as promotional material for various gatherings.

Apport Stories and the Nottingham Halls of Justice

The magazine recounts an 'apport' story where objects, specifically two soft toys and eight old coins, allegedly materialized on a bed in a bedroom that had been recently inspected and found to be empty of such items. This event is presented as evidence of paranormal activity.

Following this, the article delves into the history of the Nottingham Halls of Justice, a site with a long history as a courtroom, gaol, and police station, dating back to the 14th century. The article notes its use for arrests, sentencing, and executions, and its closure as a prison in 1878 before reopening for civil and criminal courts until 1991.

A significant portion is dedicated to a paranormal experience within the Halls of Justice, referred to as 'The Halls of Justice Apport'. During a nighttime visit by delegates and speakers, a psychic medium conducted a session in an old jail cell. The author describes using a voice-activated spirit gizmo that indicated spirit presence. After leaving the room, the author and a fellow seeker, Dave Young, heard a sharp sound behind them. Upon investigation, a smooth, hot stone was found lying against a wooden door. The author speculates on the origin of the stone, considering a member of the Halls of Justice staff, or even fellow investigators Gary Bradfield and Michael Rouse, as potential sources, while acknowledging the possibility of it being a genuine paranormal 'apport'. The stone's heat is noted as unusual, suggesting it might have been kept warm in someone's pocket.

The Burlington House Incident

The magazine presents a detailed report of the 'Burlington House Incident' in Southampton, England, which occurred on January 12, 2014. The incident involved two witnesses, Darren Cooper and Christian Mcgailey, who were working as industrial cleaners. While preparing for their shift, they were using a 'CE5 contact tool' app on a phone, which registered a magnetometer alarm. Shortly after, they observed a V-shaped UFO hovering silently about two meters above their heads. The object was described as black with a glass-like or water-like texture, featuring five bright white lights and a central red orb. The witnesses noted the craft appeared seamless, with no visible engines or rivets, and that they could see stars through it. The craft moved silently from east to west and then disappeared or accelerated rapidly. The witnesses also reported feeling heat from the object and a sense of time distortion, realizing that several hours had passed when they expected to have only been working for a short period. The incident was reported to MUFON (case number 70352). The report also includes details about the lack of official investigation into the case by authorities such as the Ministry of Defence or local police.

UFOs Over Romania and Jack the Ripper

Advertisements for books are also featured. One is for 'UFOS OVER ROMANIA' by Dan D. Farcas PhD, described as an exploration of UFO experiences in Romania. Another advertisement is for 'JACK THE RIPPER: THE BLACK MAGIC MYTH' by Mike Covell, which investigates potential links between Jack the Ripper, Satanism, the occult, and human sacrifice.

Phenomena Magazine and Conferences

The issue promotes 'Phenomena Magazine', described as a free monthly publication from the Manchester's Association of Paranormal Investigation and Training (MAPIT). It covers a wide range of topics including the Paranormal, Ufological, Cryptozoological, Parapsychological, Earth Mysteries, Supernatural, and Fortean Events.

Several conferences are advertised:

• The Scottish UFO & Paranormal Conference (2017): Held on Saturday, July 8, 2017, in Falkirk, Scotland, featuring speakers like Malcolm Robinson, Alyson Dunlop, and Ron Halliday. The ticket price was £10 for the day.
• 1 DAY CONFERENCE: 70 YEARS OF THE MODERN UFO ERA: Scheduled for Saturday, September 9, 2017, at the Freedom Centre in Hull, England. This conference features speakers such as Philip Mantle, Malcolm Robinson, and Mike Covell, and commemorates 70 years of the modern UFO era. Tickets were £10 in advance or on the door.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are UFO sightings, paranormal phenomena (including hauntings and apports), and the investigation of unexplained events. The magazine appears to adopt a stance that is open to the possibility of paranormal and extraterrestrial activity, encouraging readers to share their own experiences and evidence. The promotion of conferences and the detailed reporting of witness accounts suggest a focus on community engagement and the exploration of the unexplained.

This issue of Outer Limits Magazine, dated 2017, prominently features "THE NEW HUMAN: Awakening to our Cosmic Heritage" by Mary Rodwell. The cover also includes a separate title, "UFOS OVER ROMANIA" by Dan D. Farcas, Ph.D., and an "Available on amazon" logo. The magazine explores themes of evolving human consciousness, extraterrestrial contact, and the emergence of a new human species.

The New Human: Awakening to Our Cosmic Heritage by Mary Rodwell

The central focus of this issue is Mary Rodwell's work on the concept of the "New Human" or "Homo Noeticus." Rodwell, a researcher and lecturer on UFOs and non-human intelligences, presents an analysis of individuals and families who have experienced extraterrestrial encounters. She highlights a growing number of children who are described as being more advanced and aware, possessing psychic gifts such as telepathic abilities, and acting as "bringers of light" to guide humanity's awakening.

Rodwell's research, based on over 3,000 cases, suggests that these children have heightened awareness linked to their families' interactions with non-human intelligences. Unlike their parents, these children often do not fear these beings and perceive them as "special friends, guides or teachers." They report being taken on trips to other planets and educated onboard spacecraft. These children are described as being more intuitively gifted, able to perceive spiritual entities, recall past lives on other planetary systems, and demonstrate healing abilities.

Dr. Roger Leir, a pioneer in ufology known for his work on removing implanted objects after extraterrestrial encounters, is cited as believing that humanity is being "upgraded" through contact with extraterrestrial beings. Leir's conclusion is that human evolution is being accelerated by alien intervention in our bodies and minds.

Rodwell's research extends to individuals labeled with conditions such as ADHD, Asperger Syndrome, and Autism. She posits that these children may be exhibiting "new programs of human" and a different evolutionary way of perceiving reality that is not yet understood. Neil Gould, author of "Close Encounters of the ADHD Kind," reinterprets the ADHD label as "Always Dialled to Higher Dimensions," suggesting that these individuals perceive reality differently and possess enhanced sensory awareness.

Dr. Ohlson, a molecular biologist, agrees with the concept of "New Humans" and refers to them as "letter people." She believes that genetic modifications are occurring in utero, creating a "New Human" with a genetic architecture that allows them to perceive the world in a multidimensional fashion. Dormant genetic regions are being integrated, leading to expanded awareness and savant-like characteristics. This modification of the DNA is seen as a remodeling to access dormant regions.

The article details the qualities of the New Human, including awareness of their genetic origins, recall of past lives on other planets, consciousness of their mission on Earth, and the ability to connect to all living forms. They possess healing abilities, can write unusual scripts, speak star languages, perceive spirits, and have knowledge they have not consciously learned.

Rodwell's work is supported by other researchers, including Paul Dong and Thomas E. Raffils, who identified similar phenomena in China and labeled it as EMF (Extra Human Functions) or HAS (High sense abilities).

Annus Mirabilis: The Great UFO Invasion of 1783 by Peter van Doorn

This section presents a paper by Peter van Doorn, Director of the Ball Lightning Division of the Tornado & Storm Research Organisation (TORRO). It examines the year 1783 as a period of extraordinary natural events and preternatural happenings, particularly focusing on UFO sightings.

Van Doorn contrasts the pre-1947 understanding of UFOs with the post-Kenneth Arnold sighting era, noting that the concept of extraterrestrial intrusions has become firmly established. He asserts that visitations by unidentified aerial objects have occurred throughout history, with spectacular manifestations observed long before 1947.

The summer of 1783 is described as portentous, marked by alarming meteors, thunderstorms, and a peculiar "haze" or "smoky fog" that affected much of Europe. This fog caused the sun to appear as a blood-red disc at sunrise and sunset, and dull and colorless at midday. The heat was intense, and flies swarmed excessively. Gilbert White of Selborne noted this strange occurrence from June 23rd to July 20th.

The year also saw significant geological events. On February 5, 1783, a sinister black fog appeared over the Mediterranean Sea, followed by a strong earthquake in Sicily and Calabria. Later, on June 1st, violent earthquakes struck Iceland, leading to a colossal fissure opening and the eruption of three vast columns of fire, forming the "Craters of Laki." This event released toxic fallout that killed livestock and caused a famine, reducing the human population by a third.

Amidst these disturbances, a mysterious and unidentifiable "Dry Fog" emerged, distinct from volcanic gas and dust. This fog was persistent and affected North America and much of Europe.

On Monday, August 18, 1783, a series of spectacular and awe-inspiring formations of brilliant light-emitting objects illuminated the skies. These phenomena are suggested to have originated from the north of Britain, possibly from Iceland.

Specific events detailed include:

• Event 1: Shetland, North Britain: Sightings began with a strange luminous body ascending into the sky from the direction of the Norwegian Sea.
• Events 2/3: Scotland, North Britain: General James Murray in Blair Atholl, Perthshire, saw a UFO pass overhead, described as rising like the Red Planet, Mars. An observer in Edinburgh reported a similar object.
• Event 4: Northern Ireland: A lieutenant on a warship saw a luminous body moving along the northeast quarter, nearly parallel to the horizon, which later moved back in the opposite direction.
• Event 5: Northern Ireland: A huge shining object with a nucleus of radiant blue flame and a long tail of yellowish light was sighted passing over County Down.
• Event 6: Ireland: At Edgeworthstown, County Longford, a globe about a third the size of the full moon was observed moving parallel to the horizon with a tail of 3-4 degrees. The object, brilliant blue at the front and red along its length, twice became invisible and reappeared, exhibiting no radical changes in direction like a meteor.

These events are presented as evidence of intelligent, controlled aerial objects, distinct from natural phenomena like meteors.

Conference Announcement

The magazine also includes an announcement for the "Outer Limits Magazine 2017 Conference" celebrating "70 Years Of The Modern UFO Era." It lists speakers such as Philip Mantle, Malcolm Robinson, Russ Callaghan, Paul Sinclair, and Mike Covell, with ticket information provided.

Statement from Malcolm Robinson and Kevin Goodman

Malcolm Robinson and Kevin Goodman, UFO & Paranormal researchers, have established a Facebook site to provide a platform for UK-based speakers to showcase their lectures. This site aims to connect speakers with clubs and societies looking for presenters on UFOs, ghosts, poltergeists, near-death experiences, psychic phenomena, cryptozoology, and other paranormal mysteries.

They are seeking speakers who can provide details about their talks, headshots, and contact information. The platform is intended as a "one-stop shop" for public speakers in the UK, with payment arrangements to be made directly between the speaker and the client.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The issue strongly advocates for the acceptance and understanding of phenomena related to extraterrestrial contact and the evolution of human consciousness. The editorial stance supports the idea that humanity is undergoing a significant transformation, possibly guided by non-human intelligences, leading to the emergence of a more aware and capable species. The magazine actively promotes research and discussion on these topics, providing a platform for researchers like Mary Rodwell and historical accounts of UFO sightings. There is a clear emphasis on challenging conventional scientific and societal paradigms to embrace these new perspectives on reality and human potential.

This issue of The Outer Limits Magazine, Issue 7, dated April 1st, 2017, delves into historical paranormal and UFO accounts, with a significant focus on events from August 19, 1783. It also introduces James Borg as the new North American Correspondent, who shares his extensive personal journey into the paranormal and UFOlogy.

Historical UFO Sightings from 1783

The magazine presents a detailed account of numerous sightings from a single evening in 1783, suggesting multiple distinct objects were observed.

Event 7: NE England, west of Hartlepool, County Durham

At 21:00, William Cooper, Archdeacon of York Minster, witnessed a preternatural darkness followed by a brilliant quivering light. A huge globular object, estimated at 180 feet altitude, moved SSE, emitting a continuous buzzing sound and a brilliant light that illuminated the entire atmosphere. It was followed by the expulsion of several smaller fireballs, and then two large explosions.

Event 8: East Anglia, eastern England

In Suffolk, Mr. Amyss observed a huge, bluish light moving southwards. As it approached, it disgorged a vast number of star-like objects that followed the main UFO, passing very low. After it disappeared, a strange sound, like a heavy object falling, was heard.

Event 9: London, SE England

At Greenwich, a strange and brilliant light appeared at 21:11. Two huge globular UFOs, emitting powerful light, travelled SSE at low velocity. Behind them was a train of eight smaller, spherical globes. The formation passed almost directly over the Royal Observatory.

Event 10: SE London, England

Around 21:17, astronomer Alex Aubert observed a 'glimmering light' that formed into a large body of 'electrical fire' near Lewisham. This object ascended vertically, changing size and shape, appearing to be of pulsating energy. It exhibited a tumbling motion and was accompanied by a 'whitish mist or light vapour.' It reached its greatest height at an elevation of about 35° before disappearing.

Event 11: London

At about 21:30, a brilliant illumination appeared, developing into a phenomenon like the aurora borealis. A 'column of fire' of amazing magnitude moved with the speed of a pyrotechnic rocket, curving from north to east, then south over London. Observers described it as a 'fiery pillar' or 'cylindrical object' of glowing plasma, bright as the hottest furnace, expelling large fireballs that melted away.

Events 13/14: East Sussex, SE England

A UFO was observed from Lewes, described as resembling a quart bottle or a trumpet. Fishermen at Brighton saw something emitting a bright light descend into the sea, causing agitation.

Event 15: South of England

An uncommon meteor appeared near Salisbury, remaining stationary for about half a minute before proceeding horizontally and dividing into several glowing balls of light.

Event 16: SW England

A 'curious phenomenon, or meteor,' appeared, moving rapidly from east to west, with a light equal to six rockets. It made a noise like hot iron put into water and exploded loudly, scattering like a shower of fire.

Event 17: NW Europe

In Flanders, observers at Ostend saw a huge shining globe rise from the sea, pass due south, and explode into fragments, leaving trails of fire.

Events 18/19: Stamford Hill, (North) Greater London

A gentleman observed three globular objects travelling in line, rising in the NNW and travelling SE. Another witness saw a similar phenomenon from Upper Clapton.

Event 20: Chilham, Kent, SE England

A globe of 'fire,' almost as large as the moon, travelled from north to south and exploded, dividing into about 20 fireballs that vanished in the air.

Other Historical and Contemporary Accounts

1913 Meteor Procession

The issue briefly mentions an incredible procession of 'meteors' visible for minutes over Canada and the USA on February 9, 1913, described as highly organized and sailing like warships in formation.

James Borg: A Paranormal Journey

The magazine introduces James Borg as its new North American Correspondent. Borg recounts his lifelong experiences with the paranormal, starting from a childhood in a haunted house and his early interest in the occult and magick. He describes himself as having been a skeptic who experienced numerous paranormal events, including 'missing time,' ghost sightings, and encounters with entities. He details his transition from ghost hunting to UFO research, the challenges faced by researchers (equipment failures, surveillance), and his involvement in paranormal groups and media.

Borg highlights the importance of 'seeing is believing' and the role of eye-witness confirmation. He notes that camera equipment often fails during entity-related occurrences. He also mentions his personal experiences with alien implants and his preference for 'white magick.' Borg has co-founded Ufopia and Uforia, groups dedicated to UFO enthusiasts and experiencers.

References and Further Information

The article includes a comprehensive list of references for the historical events, citing various journals and publications from the 18th and 19th centuries. It also provides contact information for readers to submit their own UFO or paranormal video footage and stories to the magazine.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the historical investigation of unexplained aerial phenomena and paranormal experiences, emphasizing that many events, particularly those from 1783, were not meteoric in nature. The magazine promotes the idea that 'seeing is believing' and encourages readers to share their own accounts. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into the unexplained, presenting historical evidence and personal testimonies without definitive conclusions, but leaning towards the idea of genuine, unexplained phenomena beyond conventional explanations like meteors. The introduction of James Borg signifies a continued focus on contemporary paranormal research and UFOlogy.
