Tonnel - No 05 - 1992

Magazine Overview

This document is the fifth issue of the scientific collection "Tunnel" (ТОННЕЛЬ), published in 1992 by "UFOcenter" (УФОцентр) in Moscow, Russia. It is part of the "Ufologist's Library" series and focuses on the intersection of ufology and theoretical physics. The issue contains articles by prominent researchers in both fields, aiming to bridge the gap between unexplained aerial phenomena and cutting-edge scientific theories.

Editorial and Contents

The issue opens with a "Foreword" (ПРЕДИСЛОВИЕ) by N.A. Zheltukhin, a Doctor of Technical Sciences and Corresponding Member of the USSR Academy of Sciences. He highlights the impending "miraculous" changes in modern theoretical physics and discusses fundamental interactions that govern the world, leading to the conclusion of a single 'superforce.' Zheltukhin also lists new physics developments that could help understand the physical aspects of UFO phenomena. The foreword also mentions the work of Moscow scientist G.I. Shipov, who proposes a new principle of universal relativity and a vacuum theory that fundamentally alters our understanding of the world.

The issue features several key articles:

• N.A. Zheltukhin: Discusses the progress in theoretical physics and the concept of a single 'superforce' that unifies all fundamental interactions. He also lists promising new physics discoveries relevant to ufology.
• G.I. Shipov: Presents his theory of vacuum as the potential state of all matter and introduces the principle of universal relativity, which he argues is a generalization of special and general relativity and implies the relativity of all physical fields. He posits that this theory can fundamentally change our understanding of the surrounding world.
• A.V. Karavakin: Details research conducted at UFO landing sites in Kolomenskoye, near Moscow, using a bioactivity sensor for plants. The article explains the physical nature of changes in plant tissues due to UFO-related factors and provides methodological recommendations for similar research.
• M.L. Gaponov: Offers an original interpretation of the "celestial message" observed over Salsk, Rostov Region, on September 15, 1989. His analysis of "Salsk numbers" aims to extract numerical values of fundamental physical constants and mathematical constants.

Problems of Ufology – Problems of Physics

N.A. Zheltukhin's article, "Problems of Ufology – Problems of Physics," notes the growing public and scientific interest in ufology. He emphasizes the need to understand the "miraculous" nature of phenomena described in ufological reports and connects this to the revolutionary changes occurring in theoretical physics. Zheltukhin outlines the four traditionally recognized fundamental interactions (electromagnetism, weak interaction, strong interaction, and gravity) and introduces a fifth, "superluminal interaction," characterized by particles with imaginary mass (tachyons or "strikethrough particles"). He explains that current physics is moving towards unified theories, with the ultimate goal being a "superforce" or "supersymmetry" theory where all interactions are manifestations of a single force described by a universal system of equations.

Zheltukhin then lists ten "unusual" and promising scientific developments that could aid in understanding ufological phenomena:

1. The concept of empty space: It is now understood that physical vacuum is filled with special particles and is in constant flux, interacting with any particle within it.
2. Particle interactions: The strong and other interactions involve quarks, which are free at short distances but attract each other strongly as the distance increases, making them unobservable in unbound states.
3. Virtual particles: These particles participate in microprocesses instantaneously and without occupying space, their interactions with real particles obeying conservation laws in a balanced way.
4. Divisible electric charge: The existence of quarks with charges that are fractions (1/3) of the electron's charge is confirmed.
5. Instability of particles: Even protons are predicted to decay, potentially leading to the universe's transformation into electron-positron-neutrino plasma or even a "collapse" into a point.
6. Interconversion of particles and interactions: Particles and interactions are seen as interchangeable, with symmetry breaking leading to mass generation.
7. Gravity: The process of gravity is more complex than previously thought, involving a large number of particles and potentially being the origin of all other forces, supporting the idea of a single 'superforce.'
8. Dimensionality of space: New theories suggest that physical space may have more than three dimensions, with eleven-dimensional space being prominent in grand unification theories.
9. Superluminal interactions: These allow for infinite speeds and explain infinite accelerations without infinite forces due to imaginary mass.
10. Causality: Superluminal interactions can alter cause-and-effect relationships, allowing the present state of the world to be influenced by both its past and future.

Vacuum as the Potential State of All Matter

G.I. Shipov's article, "Vacuum as the Potential State of All Matter," defines modern physics as the study of seven levels of reality, from "Absolute Nothing" to "Solid Body." He explains that while "objective physics" primarily deals with the first four levels (solid, liquid, gas, plasma), the concept of physical vacuum (level III) has gained prominence. Shipov argues that vacuum can be viewed as a potential state of all matter and that understanding its laws is crucial for solving many physics problems. He introduces the "principle of universal relativity," which generalizes Einstein's theories and suggests that all physical fields are relative. This principle is the foundation for his vacuum theory, which he believes fundamentally changes our perception of reality.

Shipov elaborates on the concept of "subjective physics," which involves the levels of consciousness and absolute nothingness, and suggests that these, along with the vacuum, are the basis for lost technologies. He contrasts the objective physics' reliance on reflection with subjective physics' use of meditation. He notes that the opposition between material and ideal, matter and consciousness, science and religion, significantly limits our understanding of reality, proposing instead a dialectical unity of these concepts.

Principle of Universal Relativity

Shipov's article further details the "Principle of Universal Relativity." He critiques the inductive approach in physics, which builds theories from experiments, arguing that it has led to a fragmentation of knowledge rather than integration. He advocates for a deductive approach, starting with a fundamental principle, as pioneered by Einstein. Shipov claims to have found a new physical principle – universal relativity – which overcomes the limitations of special and general relativity. This principle states that all physical fields are relative, meaning they can be transformed into zero through certain physical transformations. He illustrates this with examples from classical mechanics, electrodynamics, and gravity, showing how energy and potential energy can be made relative.

He proposes that to make the rest mass energy (E=mc²) relative, one must express it through quantum fields that can be reduced to zero, introduce a new principle allowing for the relativity of classical and quantum fields, and develop new equations where all physical fields are relative. Shipov suggests that the phenomenon of electron-positron pair production from vacuum indicates that rest mass is relative. His vacuum theory, based on universal relativity, is presented as capable of reflecting this fact.

Vacuum Equations

The article concludes by presenting the "Vacuum Equations" (A) and (B), which are described as extensions of the Einstein-Yang-Mills equations. These equations, derived from the principle of universal relativity, suggest that particle rest masses and charges are relative and can be transformed to zero. This implies that energy in any form is relative, and while local deviations from energy conservation might occur during matter creation from vacuum, the principle holds globally.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue of "Tunnel" magazine revolve around the unification of physics and the exploration of phenomena that challenge conventional scientific understanding. There is a strong emphasis on theoretical physics, particularly the concept of a 'superforce' and the nature of vacuum. The magazine appears to adopt a stance that is open to unconventional ideas and seeks to find scientific explanations for phenomena traditionally relegated to the realm of the unexplained, such as UFOs. The editorial stance is one of pushing the boundaries of current scientific paradigms and exploring the potential for a more unified and comprehensive understanding of reality, where physics, consciousness, and even seemingly paradoxical phenomena like superluminal interactions are integrated.

This issue, Volume 1, Issue 1, published in 1993 by VINITI, presents a theoretical exploration of vacuum, inertia, and matter, alongside a practical investigation into the effects of UFO landing sites on plant tissues.

Theoretical Framework: Vacuum, Inertia, and Matter

The theoretical articles delve into a complex mathematical framework based on the universal principle of relativity and vacuum equations (A) and (B). These equations are presented as structural equations of absolute parallelism space (A4) and simultaneously as structural equations of the translation group T4 and the rotation group O(3.1).

Levels of Reality

The theory proposes a multi-level reality:

• Absolute 'Nothingness' (Level 1): A boundless, ordered manifold with a pseudo-Euclidean geometry, characterized by zero torsion and curvature. It is described by identities (A.1) and (B.1).
• Field of Consciousness (Level 2): Transition to this level involves the emergence of dynamic equations (A.II) and (B.II), where torsion (T¹[jk]) represents elementary space-time vortices that carry information but not energy. This level is described as a ten-dimensional manifold.
• Vacuum Level (Level 3): Here, vacuum equations (A.III) and (B.III) describe matter in a potential vacuum state. These equations are free of physical constants and represent possible forms of matter, with solutions describing virtual states.
• Elementary Particles and Fields (Level 4): Matter transitions from a virtual to a real state when integration constants acquire physical values, leading to the emergence of real particles or fields, described by an extended Yang-Mills system.

Inertions and Fields

The concept of 'inertions' is introduced as excited states of vacuum that manifest as various forms of matter. These inertions are described by solutions to vacuum equations and can possess properties like Coulomb-Newtonian, nuclear, or even exotic potentials. The primary vacuum field is identified as the inertia field (Tjk), which is universal and unifies all physical fields. This field is crucial in a deterministic quantum mechanics and can be used to describe both micro- and macro-objects.

Space-Time and Torsion

The theory posits a space-time with absolute parallelism geometry, described as a ten-dimensional manifold with 4 translational and 6 angular coordinates. Torsion is considered primary to curvature, arising from the dynamics of physical objects in rotational coordinates. The issue discusses two metrics: the Riemannian metric defining curvature and the Kalining-Kartal metric associated with torsion. Torsion has 24 components, decomposing into three irreducible parts, with vacuum inertions manifesting as particles with spin ½.

Mass and Rotation

It is suggested that the birth of positive mass from vacuum is accompanied by the birth of an equal and opposite negative mass. The sign of the mass is linked to the direction of rotation, with positive and negative masses having opposite signs for angular velocity and translational acceleration. This implies that the total mass of a body can be altered by manipulating the rotation of its constituent particles.

Investigation of UFO Landing Sites and Plant Tissues

A significant portion of the issue is dedicated to the study of electrical conductivity in plant tissues at UFO landing sites, authored by A.V. Karavaikin.

Methodology

The research aims to assess physiological changes in plants exposed to UFOs. It compares 'action currents' (induced by the UFO factor) with 'resting currents' in undamaged plant tissues. This method uses plant tissue as a receiver-indicator, similar to a photocell. The study also involves measuring the electrical conductivity of plant tissues at high (1 MHz) and low (10 kHz) frequencies using a 'VEGA-08' bioactivity meter.

Findings

At UFO landing sites, particularly in Kolomenskoye (Moscow), measurements revealed changes in plant tissue electrical conductivity. At high frequencies (1 MHz), the changes indicate alterations in the concentration of free ions within the plant tissue, as all free ions participate in charge transfer. The graphs show three distinct extrema with a turning point in the center of the affected zones, suggesting the presence of concentric zones of influence within the landing site. One zone, visually observable, shows a clear impact, while an inner zone, though not visually apparent, also exhibits an energetic effect.

Implications

The study concludes that UFO landing sites contain zones of influence that manifest as sharp changes in the concentration of free ions in plant tissues. This phenomenon is attributed to the energetic impact of the UFO, affecting the plant's physiological state.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The issue strongly advocates for a unified theoretical framework (vacuum theory) that reconciles seemingly disparate concepts like matter and consciousness, objective and subjective knowledge. It emphasizes the fundamental role of inertia fields and torsion in physics. The editorial stance appears to be one of exploring unconventional theories and their potential applications, as evidenced by the inclusion of research on UFO effects on biological systems. The publication of these articles suggests an openness to theories that challenge mainstream physics and explore the nature of reality at a deeper, possibly unified, level.

This issue of UFO DATABANK, published in 1991, delves into the scientific analysis of UFO landing traces and the intriguing interpretation of anomalous aerial phenomena through numerology and historical texts.

Analysis of UFO Landing Traces

The magazine presents research on the effects of UFO landing traces on plant tissues. The study focuses on measuring the electrical resistance of plant cells at different frequencies. At high frequencies (100 kHz), the resistance changes are characterized by primary and secondary extrema, indicating variations in ion concentration. The magnitude of these changes, represented by the difference between Nmax (maximum ion concentration) and Nmin (minimum ion concentration), correlates with the intensity of the UFO's energetic impact. The central area of the landing trace shows resistance values close to the background levels, suggesting no significant energetic impact from the UFO in this region, possibly due to the design of the specific UFO type.

At low frequencies (10 kHz), the electrical resistance reflects the permeability of plant cell membranes to ion flows, influenced by the UFO's presence. Two extrema are observed, corresponding to the inner and outer concentric structures of the landing trace. The article notes that the observed reaction of plant cell membranes to UFO stimuli is contrary to reactions caused by conventional factors like ultrasound or radiation.

Further analysis indicates that the electrical resistance patterns are consistent across different plant species and conditions, with a distinct anomaly always present in the UFO's landing trace area compared to the general background.

Deciphering the 'Salsk Signs'

A significant portion of the issue is dedicated to the investigation of 'Salsk signs' that appeared in the sky over Salsk, Russia, on September 15, 1989. These signs, initially appearing as a sequence of squares and rectangles, transformed into a series of symbols, including '>>' and numbers like '77 777'.

The author, M.L. Gaponov, attempts to extract information from these signs by converting them into numerical values. Two primary methods are employed:

1. Decimal Conversion: The '>>' symbols are interpreted as numbers based on their quantity, leading to sequences like '222426'.
2. Binary Conversion: The '>>' symbols are treated as '1' and spaces as '0', resulting in binary numbers that are then converted to decimal, yielding numbers like '7191999'.

These numerical sequences are then analyzed for potential meanings, including dates. The number '7191999' is suggested to indicate the date July 19, 1999. This date is linked to prophecies by Nostradamus and an alleged astrophysical event predicted for July 1999.

Connection to the Pskov Chronicle:

The article draws parallels with a passage from the Pskov Chronicle dated 1300, which contains the phrase '33 333 (2) sea'. By converting Cyrillic letters to their numerical values, this phrase is interpreted as '77 777 2000 4715'. The number 4715 is identified as the number of years from the creation of the world according to the Julian calendar. This sequence is seen as a prophecy of an event occurring 4715 years after creation and 2000 years after the birth of Christ, possibly heralding an era of numerical symbolism.

The 'Salsk signs' and the Pskov Chronicle passage are seen as echoing each other, particularly concerning the number '77 777'.

Symbolism of Numbers:

The issue explores the symbolic meanings of numbers, particularly 7, 5, and 3, which are associated with mystery, divine unity, and the past, present, and future, respectively. The numbers 77 and 777 are also linked to religious texts and the concept of the Holy Trinity.

Further Decipherment:

Using the 'Salsk numbers' and Cyrillic/Glagolitic alphabets, the sequence '2224262-277 777' is translated to 'ИИСУС ХС – СЫН БОЖИЙ' (Jesus Christ - Son of God). The second part of the 'Salsk signs' (2 77 77?) is further analyzed to yield 'ИСТ ИНО ОНЖ', which, when combined with other calculations, leads to the full phrase 'ИИСУС ХРИСТОС – ИСТИНО СЫН БОЖИЙ, ОН ЖЕ БОГ, СПАСЕТ ВАС' (Jesus Christ - True Son of God, He is God, He will save you).

The question of *when* salvation will occur is addressed by referencing the dates 1999 and 2000, derived from the 'Salsk signs' and the Pskov Chronicle.

Deriving Physical Constants and Planetary Data

The article posits that the numerical values derived from the 'Salsk signs' and other related numbers (like 7, 77, 777, 222426, 770777) can be used to calculate fundamental physical constants and parameters of the solar system.

Physical Constants:

Through various arithmetic operations involving these numbers, the article claims to derive values for constants such as the electron charge to Planck's constant ratio (2e/h), the fine-structure constant, the proton mass, the gravitational constant, the weak interaction constant, the electromagnetic interaction constant, and the ratio of electron to proton mass. The accuracy of these derivations is presented as surprisingly high, often involving simple multiplications or divisions by multiples of 7.

Solar System Parameters:

Using numbers like 7, 22, 24, 26, 77, 222, 426, and 1421, the article attempts to calculate orbital periods and distances from the Sun for planets like Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. It also explores the structure of the solar system based on the number 77777, suggesting it represents planets from Earth to Uranus, with a 'gap' for Earth possibly indicating a future encounter with an asteroid belt.

Dates of Past Events:

By subtracting combinations of 7, 70, and 77 from the initial dates of 1989 and 1999, the article derives dates for significant historical and cosmic events, including the Tunguska event (1608), solar eclipses (1842), the appearance of supernovae (1408, 1054), the Baptism of Rus' (988), and the birth of Jesus Christ (2 BC).

Conclusion

The issue concludes by highlighting the remarkable accuracy with which integer numbers, multiples of 7, and the 'Salsk numbers' fit into these calculations. The author suggests that these numerical properties are not mere coincidences but point to a deeper, underlying order in the universe. The ability to derive complex physical constants and cosmic information from seemingly simple numerical patterns raises profound questions about the nature of reality and the possibility of a creator who designed the universe with humanity in mind, as echoed by astrophysicist Ralph Estling's quote.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the potential for numerical patterns to hold hidden information, the interpretation of anomalous phenomena through numerology and historical texts, and the search for underlying order in the universe. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into unconventional explanations for UFO sightings and cosmic phenomena, emphasizing the possibility of a designed universe and the significance of numerical coincidences.

This issue of 'UFO' magazine, dated March 28, 1992, focuses on the analysis of enigmatic aerial phenomena and their potential implications. The primary content revolves around a mysterious "message" or "signs" observed in the sky, which are interpreted through numerology and ancient scripts, raising profound questions about their origin and purpose.

Analysis of 'Salsk Signs'

The magazine presents a detailed examination of information derived from what are referred to as "Salsk signs." The author poses several critical questions: the sheer number of coincidences suggests these signs are not random; the identity of their creators, capable of conveying complex information through a sequence of symbols and numbers; and whether this "heavenly message" serves as a warning. A specific focus is placed on the year 1999, speculated to be a period of "terrible trials" followed by an era of "stability and unity" (SI SU SE). The article highlights a peculiar numerical correspondence where the first letters of these hypothetical events, when translated into the Glagolitsa alphabet and then into numbers, yield the "Salsk number" 22 24 26. The text also questions why this information appears in the ancient Slavic Glagolitsa, pondering if it is directed towards descendants of ancient Slavs and if it carries a prophecy of salvation through Jesus Christ.

The author speculates that these signs might be a deliberate attempt by "older brothers in reason" (referencing J.A. Keel's "Operation Trojan Horse") to influence human spirituality and intellect. The article encourages readers to verify the arithmetic and data presented using calculators and scientific references, suggesting that personal investigation might lead to new discoveries or skepticism.

Specific Sightings and Dates

The issue references specific observations: the numbers "77 777" were seen over Salsk on April 4, 1990. This event followed the appearance of a sequence of squares and rectangles in the sky, which is noted as being reminiscent of an event in September 1989. The author emphasizes that the information was not "pulled out of thin air" but observed in the sky, described as a "blue firmament painted with unusual symbols."

Author's Perspective and Research Process

The author expresses hope that the material will stimulate deep reflection rather than hasty prophecies. The process of deciphering this "enigmatic 'Message'" is described as having taken eighteen months of slow, sequential, and cautious weighing of every coincidence. The author explicitly states they do not claim to present the ultimate truth.

Address from the Ufological Association of CIS

Included in the issue is an address from Pavel Popovich, President of the Ufological Association of CIS, to ufologists. He announces that the All-Union Ufological Association and its charter were registered by the Ministry of Justice of the USSR in April of the previous year. The Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation confirmed the Association's status as an interregional public body uniting the interests of ufological organizations from Commonwealth countries, renaming it the Ufological Association of CIS. To maintain a connecting body, Popovich established a small apparatus called the "UFO Center" on February 14th of the current year, which handles all obligations to subscribers and organizations. Popovich calls for the integration of efforts from all ufological collectives, regardless of their origin, urging them not to falter during this ideologically and economically difficult period and to unite in understanding one of nature's greatest mysteries. He concludes with wishes for creative success.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the interpretation of unexplained aerial phenomena, the potential for extraterrestrial communication, the significance of ancient symbols and languages, and the role of ufological organizations in research. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, encouraging critical thinking and personal investigation while acknowledging the speculative nature of the findings. The emphasis is on raising questions and stimulating thought rather than providing definitive answers.
