Featured Articles

"20 Puertas Hacia el Más Allá" by Jorge Ríos

The cover story centers on Jorge Ríos and his book, which is described as a study of haunted places. The editorial praises Ríos as a valuable collaborator and a great writer, deserving of the cover feature.

"Viaje, Proyección Astral y Desdoblamiento" by Joe Carpio

This extensive article explores the phenomena of astral projection and 'desdoblamiento' (duplication or bilocation). Carpio differentiates between the two, with 'desdoblamiento' occurring within the same space-time context and astral travel extending to other space-times. He discusses historical accounts, including those of saints and common beliefs in Colombia regarding witches and sorcerers. The article delves into the concept of the astral body as an energetic, translucent substance that transports the soul. It examines the psychological and paranormal aspects, distinguishing it from near-death experiences and spontaneous occurrences. The author also touches upon methods used to achieve astral projection, including the use of hallucinogenic drugs, and warns of potential dangers for individuals with psychic or cardiac weaknesses. The article introduces the concept of the Astral Plane as a transitional realm inhabited by various spiritual entities, accessible through astral projection or upon death.

Further sections of this article detail the risks associated with astral projection, debunking myths like the idea that abandoning the body leads to death. It highlights the natural occurrence of unconscious astral projection during sleep. The primary risks identified are addiction, the potential for intense fear due to encountering unseen entities, and the singular risk of possession, where spirits may inhabit a physical body. The author advises trusting in God and not succumbing to fear, promising further exploration of the Astral Plane and its inhabitants in future writings. A YouTube link is provided for further study.

"Luciano de Samósata y sus Relatos Verídicos: sátira, ciencia ficción y viajes espaciales" by Félix Ruíz Herrera

This article positions Luciano de Samósata as a foundational figure in science fiction. It discusses humanity's enduring desire to explore space, referencing recent events like China's lunar landing. The author argues that Luciano, an ancient Greco-Syrian writer, was one of the first to create science fiction narratives involving planetary travel and extraterrestrial life through his satirical work "Relatos Verídicos." The article contrasts Luciano's approach with later writers like Johannes Kepler, whose work "Somnium" also explored lunar travel. It highlights Luciano's skeptical and anti-dogmatic stance, noting that his critical views earned him enemies. The article suggests that "Relatos Verídicos" was a satirical critique of other writers' fantastical accounts, with Luciano admitting his own work was fictional but intended to expose the falsehoods in others' writings. The piece concludes by noting that Luciano's work established key themes in science fiction, such as space travel and extraterrestrial life, and that his biographical details remain somewhat obscure.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores themes of the unexplained, including UFOs, paranormal experiences, astral projection, and the intersection of science and the supernatural. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, presenting diverse perspectives and research while encouraging critical thinking and further investigation. There is a clear emphasis on scientific investigation of phenomena that challenge conventional understanding, as indicated by the magazine's tagline: "LA INVESTIGACIÓN CIENTÍFICA DE LO INEXPLICABLE" (The Scientific Investigation of the Inexplicable).

This issue of Phenomena Magazine, published by Flying Disk Press Latinoamerica, delves into a variety of intriguing topics, ranging from ancient mysteries and early science fiction to contemporary paranormal phenomena and UFO sightings. The magazine features articles on the enigmatic Sargasso Sea, the 'bird-man' sightings in Merlo, Argentina, and the historical significance of a former airfield in the same region.

The Mysterious Sargasso Sea: A Vestige of Atlantis?

The lead article, 'The Mysterious Sea of Sargazos: A Vestige of the Legendary, Mythical and Historical Atlantis?', by Prof. Dr. Antonio Las Heras, explores the unique characteristics of the Sargasso Sea. It notes a massive increase in sargazo (seaweed) in the Caribbean, with coverage reaching 173 km2, far exceeding the historical average. The article references Plato's dialogues, suggesting a possible link between the Sargasso Sea and the lost continent of Atlantis. The sea's unusual stillness, its vast expanse (comparable to the United States), and its unique algae are described. The text also mentions historical accounts of ships becoming trapped, earning it the name 'Cemetery of Ships'. Geologists have identified submerged elevations and flat-topped peaks, suggesting they may have once been islands. The article posits that the sargazo's ability to survive for centuries and its reproductive capacity point to an origin that is not purely marine, potentially linking it to terrestrial plants that adapted over time, further fueling the Atlantis hypothesis.

Early Science Fiction and Extraterrestrial Imagination

An article discusses early literary explorations of space travel and extraterrestrial life. It highlights Cyrano de Bergerac's works, 'The Other World' (1657) and 'Comical History of the States of the Sun' (1662), which described a spaceship and the concept of weightlessness. Another piece focuses on Luciano's 'True Stories' (1780), which recounts a fantastical journey to the moon. Luciano's narrative includes descriptions of lunar inhabitants called 'selenites' and their unusual reproductive methods, as well as 'arboreal' beings born from a planted testicle. The article credits Luciano as a visionary founder of science fiction, capable of anticipating modern human concerns.

Paranormal Phenomena in Merlo, Argentina

Several articles and reader contributions focus on paranormal events and UFO sightings in Merlo, Argentina. Edgardo Stekar's piece, 'Merlo Strange City: 'Mirror of Another Dimension'', details reports from listeners of Radio Contacto. One account from Carlos de Morón describes his nephew witnessing a 'bird-man' figure in a field near Merlo. The figure was described as walking with its legs together and then taking flight. Another reader, E.E.G. from La Unión, Ezeiza, shares a similar experience from the late 1980s, describing a dark figure with a bird-like head and yellow eyes. The witness expresses uncertainty about whether it was a dream, a hallucination, or an extraterrestrial being.

Another section discusses the historical significance of an airfield in Merlo, which was closed in 1974. According to the article, locals are reluctant to discuss the reasons for its closure, citing fear. The text suggests that the airfield may have been a clandestine detention center during the military dictatorship or a 'dimensional portal'. The presence of a radar station in the area, considered strategically important and modernized with Russian technology, is also highlighted, raising questions about Merlo's role as a potential observation point for UFOs and other phenomena.

Eduardo Del Bono, Director of FM 91.1 Radio Ciudad in Merlo, is quoted extensively. He discusses the unusual vehicles observed in the area, suggesting they possess advanced technology. Del Bono also posits that the former airfield, once a center for aviation, now serves as a 'dimensional mirror' where entities ascend and descend. He mentions the historical importance of the airfield, which hosted international figures and aircraft from World War II.

Reader Contributions and Hypotheses

The magazine includes reader letters and contributions, such as the account from Lidia C. Rolandelli, detailing her experience with a paranormal phenomenon. The issue also features a section on 'Esquinas de la Memoria' (Corners of Memory), commemorating María del Carmen Baldi, a teacher and victim of state terrorism. The article questions the nature of the 'bird-man' sightings, pondering if they are the same phenomenon occurring over decades or if they represent different entities.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue of Phenomena Magazine consistently explores themes of the unexplained, the paranormal, and the possibility of extraterrestrial life. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, presenting witness accounts and historical data without definitive conclusions, encouraging readers to form their own hypotheses. The magazine highlights the intersection of science fiction, ancient mysteries, and modern unexplained phenomena, suggesting that reality may be stranger than fiction. The recurring focus on Merlo, Argentina, as a site of significant paranormal activity underscores the magazine's interest in localized UFO and supernatural hotspots.

Phenomena Magazine, Issue 21, delves into the controversial History Channel series "Project Blue Book," examining its portrayal of UFO investigations and its adherence to historical fact. The issue also explores other intriguing phenomena, including a reported giant bird sighting in Barcelona and a UFO encounter in Poland.

Project Blue Book: Fiction vs. Reality

The lead article, "Project Blue Book: When Fiction Devours Reality" by José Antonio Caravaca, critically analyzes the History Channel series that premiered on January 8, 2019. The series, based on the US Air Force's "Project Blue Book" (Libro Azul), aimed to explore one of the most famous official UFO investigation projects, guided by Dr. J. Allen Hynek. The channel promoted the series as being inspired by Hynek's investigations and based on real cases, blending UFO theories with historical events from the mysterious 1950s and 1960s in the United States.

However, upon its release, the series faced disappointment and criticism from the ufological community for its significant departure from factual accounts. Critics, including journalists Ralph Blumenthal and Leslie Kean from The New York Times, and ufologist Rich Reynolds, accused the series of sensationalism, embellishment, and distortion. They pointed out the inclusion of fictional elements like "Men in Black" and the alteration of relationships between key figures, such as the scientific consultant Dr. J. Allen Hynek and program director Captain Edward J. Ruppelt, whose character was renamed Michael Quinn.

Investigator David Halperin described the show as "trash" and noted its similarity to "The X-Files," following two detectives investigating mysterious events. The series is criticized for presenting fictionalized assassinations, self-immolations, and government agents, thereby undermining the historical record. The article highlights specific instances, such as the fictionalization of pilot George Gorman's encounter and the alteration of the Flatwoods monster's appearance, deeming these changes unforgivable and a disservice to the iconic nature of the case.

Ufologists like Nick Redfern and Kevin Randle also voiced their concerns. Redfern stated that the series blurs the lines between reality and fiction, while Randle described the show as "stupid and dishonest boredom," despite acknowledging its potential to entertain.

Producers defended their approach, with David O'Leary stating their aim was to "educate and entertain" and that the series was a "true UFO story." However, critics like Alex Chionetti, who had previously pitched a similar documentary series to History Channel, expressed disappointment with the series' lack of rigor and the liberties taken with Hynek's biography and cases. Chionetti noted that the series creators did not consult him or Mark O'Connell, author of a biography on Dr. Hynek.

The Giant Bird of Barcelona

Another significant article, "The Gigantic Bird of Barcelona" by Javier Resines, recounts an unusual cryptid case from Spain. In June 1990, numerous residents of Barcelona reported sightings of a gigantic bird-like creature. The phenomenon began with a letter to the editor of La Vanguardia newspaper from Pére Carbó, describing a silhouette of a bird with immense dimensions, possibly between 3 to 5 meters. This sparked a wave of similar reports from various locations in Catalonia, including Gavá, Sant Joan Despí, Salou, and Bellvei del Penedés, with some witnesses estimating the wingspan to be between 3 and 15 meters.

The creature was described as dark, with membranous wings resembling a pterodactyl, and emitting loud, multi-toned squawks. While some suggested it was a mutated pigeon or a crow, others offered more speculative explanations. The Superior Body of Police acknowledged receiving hundreds of calls about the sighting. Xavier Tutusaus proposed it might be an example of "Avis Cervus," a mythological species. Santiago Mañosa, from the Faculty of Biology, could not provide a scientific explanation but suggested it might be an albatross, an oceanic species not typically found in Catalonia.

Despite official attempts to downplay the sightings, the reports continued for three months. Investigator Jordi Ardanuy documented several cases, suggesting the creature might inhabit the area rather than just passing through. The article concludes that this "rare bird" has become a significant case in international cryptozoology.

UFOs Over Poland

"UFOs Over Poland: UFOs Over Ławica" by Piotr Gadaj details an encounter from the early 1990s. A 10-year-old boy named Michał witnessed four star-like, golden objects hovering in the sky over Ławica, Poland. The objects remained stationary for a few seconds before rapidly dispersing in different directions at unprecedented speed. The boy described the experience as surprising and fascinating, profoundly changing his worldview.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores the intersection of the extraordinary and the unexplained, with a critical eye towards sensationalism and a preference for documented cases. The editorial stance appears to favor rigorous investigation and transparency, as evidenced by the critical reviews of the "Project Blue Book" series and the detailed reporting on cryptid and UFO sightings. The magazine also promotes various related organizations and platforms, suggesting a commitment to fostering a community interested in paranormal and mysterious phenomena.

Title: Phenomena
Issue: 31
Date: January 2017 (inferred from page numbers and content)
Publisher: N/A
Country: N/A
Language: Spanish

This issue of Phenomena magazine, titled "La neurocientífica que cree en la precognición" (The Neuroscientist Who Believes in Precognition), explores a range of intriguing and mysterious topics, from the scientific study of precognition to ancient geoglyphs and the phenomenon of haunted places.

La Neurocientífica que Cree en la Precognición

The lead article introduces Julia Mossbridge, a cognitive neuroscientist who believes in precognition. The article draws a parallel to the science fiction film "Minority Report," based on Philip K. Dick's short story "The Minority Report," which depicts a future where precognitive abilities are used by law enforcement. Mossbridge's personal experience, including a dream after her grandmother's death, sparked her interest. She advocates for an ethical approach to precognition and has co-authored a book titled "The Premonition Code: The Science of Precognition." The article highlights her belief that precognition is more than a hunch and can be a practiced skill, drawing parallels to meditation and ancient practices.

Mossbridge's research into her own ancestry, through DNA testing, revealed a connection to Jewish heritage, which she notes is written from right to left, mirroring the direction of Hebrew. She emphasizes the importance of a "positive precognition" community, focusing on principles like respect for the unknown, ethical use of abilities, accuracy, compassion, and honesty.

El Candelabro de Paracas: Un Enigma en la Arena

Another significant feature examines the "Candelabro" (Chandelier) of Paracas, a massive geoglyph located on a sandy hill in the Bay of Paracas, Peru. This enigmatic figure, also referred to as a "trident," has remained remarkably preserved despite the harsh desert environment and strong winds. The article discusses its immense size, with a main mast of approximately 183 meters and a width of 60 meters, and its visible depth of 1 to 1.20 meters.

Several theories regarding its origin and purpose are presented. Some suggest it was created by extraterrestrials, possibly as a marker for a cosmic port, due to its alignment with the Nazca lines. Others propose it served as a navigational aid for ancient mariners, its sandy surface potentially reflecting sunlight like a beacon. The article also touches upon the possibility of it being a pirate signal for hidden treasures or a ritual symbol for human sacrifices, referencing historical accounts of sacrifices in the region.

The geoglyph's directional alignment is analyzed, with measurements indicating it points north, deviating from the magnetic north. This directional aspect is contrasted with the Nazca lines, suggesting a different purpose or origin. The article also briefly mentions the Paracas culture, discovered by Julio César Tello Rojas, known for its advanced medical knowledge, particularly in trepanation, and its intricate textiles.

Lugares Encantados y Fantasmas

The magazine also includes content related to haunted places and the phenomenon of ghosts. A book review highlights "20 Puertas hacia el Más Allá" (20 Doors to the Beyond) by Jorge Ríos, which investigates haunted locations in Spain. The book is described as a well-documented work featuring photographs, original archives, and plans, aiming to reveal the real history of these mysterious places.

Images from the book are presented, including "Capítulo 1 - Can Busquets (La casa más encantada de Cataluña)" (Chapter 1 - Can Busquets, the most enchanted house in Catalonia) and "Capítulo 19 ¿Por qué vemos a los fantasmas?" (Chapter 19 Why do we see ghosts?), along with an image of "Capítulo 10 - El Castillo de Wewelsburg" (Chapter 10 - Wewelsburg Castle).

Other Content

The magazine also features advertisements and links to related websites and blogs, including "Universo Oculto" by Luis Dévora, "Joe Carpio - Gifpu Investigaciones," and information about Dr. Antonio Las Heras, a parapsychologist.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

Featured Articles and Content

The Pascagoula Incident: New Witness Testimony

The magazine presents "DOS NUEVOS TESTIGOS EN EL INCIDENTE PASCAGOULA" (Two New Witnesses to the Pascagoula Incident) by Irena Scott and Philip Mantle. This article introduces new testimony from Maria and Jerry Blair, who claim to have witnessed unusual lights and an object behaving erratically on the night of October 11, 1973, the same night Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker reported their abduction.

Maria Blair recounts seeing lights that behaved like no airplane she had ever seen, moving erratically and appearing to be lost. She describes an object emerging from the water that resembled a person, and her husband, Jerry, initially dismissed her claims. The Blairs' car was oriented towards the water, and they were on the opposite bank from where Hickson and Parker were fishing. Maria Blair's account is presented as a third description of the events, distinct from those of Hickson and Parker, and she also mentions seeing a red Pontiac, which aligns with some details of the investigation.

The article notes that Charles Hickson passed away in 2011, but recent television appearances led to the emergence of these new witnesses. The Blairs, a young couple in 1973, were waiting for a boat captain when they observed the phenomena. The article includes a link to a MUFON case file on the Pascagoula incident and mentions books by Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker.

Books: El Camino a Pascagoula

A section titled "Libros: El Camino a Pascagoula - Un Viaje de Investigación - 1981" by Stefanos Panagiotakis is featured. This book, published by Flying Disk Press LatAm, details the author's investigation into the 1973 Pascagoula incident. Panagiotakis, a Greek journalist and UFO investigator, traveled to Pascagoula in 1981, coincidentally arriving when his ship docked there for a week. He interviewed witnesses, including Charles Hickson, and describes the experience as a journey of personal discovery. The article provides download links for the Kindle ebook and the paperback edition.

Electricity in Antiquity

The article "ELECTRICIDAD EN LA ANTIGÜEDAD" (Electricity in Antiquity) by Raúl Avellaneda explores historical accounts and artifacts that suggest the use of electrical energy in ancient times. It mentions the discovery of 'batteries' by German engineer Wilhelm Köning in Baghdad in 1936. The text references ancient Roman and Greek descriptions of 'incandescent light bulbs' and 'perpetual lamps' that allegedly illuminated environments for extended periods without fuel.

Specific examples include a light source in Antioch that reportedly burned for over 500 years, a 'perpetual lamp' seen by Plutarco in the Temple of Jupiter-Amón, and a description by the Greek writer Luciano of a jewel emitting light in Hierápolis, Syria.

The article also focuses on the "Figura De Denderah" (The Denderah Figure) from an Egyptian temple. This enigmatic depiction shows an Egyptian holding a large, pear-shaped object with a coiled serpent inside, which some interpret as an ancient light bulb. The article notes that archaeologists Alfred Waitakus and John Harris interpreted hieroglyphs surrounding the figure as relating to luminosity, knowledge, and the power of Isis.

Further details are provided about the Denderah figure, describing an Egyptian holding a large, pear-shaped element with a coiled serpent inside, connected by a cord to a pedestal. The presence of the god of air and a baboon god (Thot) is noted, suggesting a connection to scientific discovery or knowledge. The article suggests that the serpent represents the filament of this 'lamp'.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are UFO phenomena, witness testimonies, and historical mysteries, particularly concerning ancient technologies. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into unexplained events and historical anomalies, presenting evidence and accounts from various sources to encourage reader investigation and discussion. The magazine aims to explore the fringes of known science and history, inviting readers to consider alternative explanations for phenomena.

This issue of Phenomena Magazine, dated October 2018 (Volume V, Issue 51), is primarily focused on the renowned Pascagoula UFO incident of 1973. The magazine is published in Spanish and aims to provide a scientific investigation of unexplained phenomena.

The Pascagoula Incident: A Deep Dive

The central theme of the magazine is the close encounter experienced by Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker in Pascagoula, Mississippi, on October 11, 1973. The article details their account of seeing a UFO and being taken aboard the craft by extraterrestrial beings. The narrative highlights the initial disbelief of authorities, including Sheriff Barry Mathis, who subjected the witnesses to lie detector tests, which they passed. The article emphasizes the emotional distress of the witnesses and the subsequent investigation.

Professor James Harder and Dr. Allen Hynek, a prominent figure in UFO research, were involved in the investigation. Dr. Hynek, who had previously worked on the U.S. Air Force's Project Blue Book, concluded that Hickson and Parker were not hallucinating and that their experience was genuine. Professor Harder conducted hypnotic regression sessions with the witnesses, noting their genuine terror, which he believed could not be faked. The magazine also mentions that the water temperature of the Pascagoula River at the time was around 75-80°F, which was safe for swimming.

Further details emerge from the account of Mrs. Blair, whose daughter contacted Philip Mantle. Mrs. Blair confirmed the story and mentioned that her husband had been missing or abducted, expressing relief that he had not returned. She also recounted seeing a strange man emerge from the water, which she found particularly odd as he didn't resurface for air, suggesting it might be related to an abduction experience.

Calvin Parker, in a conversation with Mrs. Blair's daughter in January 2019, confirmed that he had an immediate connection with her. Her daughter had been searching for him for years, having been a witness to the abduction experience herself. Parker described the encounter as emotional, feeling as though he had known her for years. He stated that she saw the abduction on October 11, 1973.

The magazine also includes a call for any other witnesses to the events of October 11, 1973, to come forward confidentially via email to [email protected].
