Publisher: АКАДЕМИЯ ИНФОРМАЦИОЛОГИЧЕСКОЙ И ПРИКЛАДНОЙ УФОЛОГИИ (Academy of Informational and Applied UFOlogy)
Date: March 25, 2012

This issue of TUNNEL presents new ideas in physics that could advance the scientific understanding of UFO phenomena. The articles argue that current scientific paradigms, particularly those based on Einstein's theories, are insufficient to explain many observed UFO events. The publication calls for a departure from these limitations to embrace newer, albeit currently unaccepted, scientific concepts.

New Ideas in Physics for the Development of Scientific Views on UFOlogy

Authors L.I. Kholodov and I.V. Goryachev argue that the lack of scientific acceptance for UFO observations stems from UFOlogy not being a self-sufficient science with its own mathematical framework. UFO researchers are forced to use existing, often inadequate, physical laws and measurement systems. They contend that the 20th-century scientific framework, particularly the speed of light and the concept of positive mass, acts as a restrictive 'rubber ball' that stifles new thinking. To explain UFO phenomena, it is necessary to look beyond the 'Einsteinian rubber ball' and consider newer, qualitatively different ideas.

Key Hypotheses and Research Areas:

1. Terletsky's Hypothesis of Matter Symmetry: This hypothesis suggests that the universe contains roughly equal amounts of matter with positive (positronic) and negative (negatonic) mass. Vacuum can give rise to particle complexes of both positive and negative mass. The authors have developed this hypothesis, proposing that negatonic particles with negative electric charges are actually particles with negative mass and magnetic charges.
2. Microlepton Physics: Research by A.F. Okhatrin, V.V. Tatura, and others in microlepton physics suggests particles with masses orders of magnitude smaller than elementary particles and speeds far exceeding the speed of light. The authors have expanded on this, showing that microleptons with negative electric charges are particles with negative mass and magnetic charges.

These hypotheses are considered hypothetical and require experimental verification. The authors point to G.F. Savelyev's work on detecting microleptons, which identified 'neutral particles' with magnetic properties as microleptons with Okhmatrin's magnetic charges (the 'Saveliev Effect'). They also connect this to Nikola Tesla's work on radiant energy, suggesting a new understanding of Tesla's radiant energy and currents.

The Phenomenon of UFOs in Light of New Achievements in Quantum Cosmology

Vladimir Lisin's article discusses the evolving relationship between professional researchers (astrophysicists, astronomers) and ufologists. He notes that the Russian Academy of Sciences' commission on combating pseudoscience has not yet classified UFOlogy as pseudoscience. Lisin references an article by V.G. Surdin, who described UFOlogy as a 'scientific discipline with a fantastical bent.' Surdin's summary suggests that while ufologists may lack deep scientific knowledge, their curiosity is valid. Professional scientists acknowledge that some UFO phenomena might extend beyond current scientific understanding. UFOlogy intersects with the search for extraterrestrial life and civilizations, but scientific analysis has yet to confirm alien visitation.

Lisin identifies two main reasons for the scientific community's cautious approach to UFOs:

1. Lack of Convincing Evidence: For over 65 years since 1947, ufologists have failed to present any compelling material evidence, such as intact flying craft or preserved occupants.
2. Incompatibility with Current Cosmological Models: Modern astrophysics and cosmology lack a framework to logically incorporate UFOs. Even with evidence, scientists would struggle to classify UFOs within existing cosmological models like 'cosmological expansion,' 'dark matter,' or 'dark energy.' Lisin suggests that if UFOs represent a form of higher intelligent life, then current quantum cosmology's picture of the universe is fundamentally flawed.

Lisin elaborates on the scientific view, suggesting that if extraterrestrial life exists, it might have evolved to a point of interstellar travel, explaining the 'twin paradox' from relativity. However, he emphasizes that recent advancements in quantum cosmology are forcing a re-evaluation of the physical basis of UFO phenomena.

Quantum Cosmology and Cyclic Universes:

Quantum cosmology posits that the universe originated from the Big Bang approximately 14 billion years ago and has been expanding, with accelerated expansion observed today. This expansion is explained by the theory of 'inflation,' based on 'redshift.' While the general theory of relativity describes the universe's evolution, it is incompatible with quantum theory at very small scales. Quantum cosmology fills this gap by proposing the universe's birth from a vacuum, potentially through a 'pulsating universe' mechanism involving cycles of expansion and contraction.

Professors P. Steinhardt and N. Turok proposed a model where the universe undergoes infinite cycles of expansion and contraction. Each cycle begins with a hot, expanding fireball that cools, forms galaxies, and eventually becomes dominated by vacuum energy, leading to exponential expansion. After trillions of years, the universe becomes homogeneous and isotropic, then contraction begins, leading to a 'Big Crunch' and the start of a new cycle. Some energy from the collapse is used to create the next hot fireball.

Researchers like A. Vilenkin and J. Garriga have theorized that during the 'collapse' phase, existing civilizations might face extinction. To preserve their legacy, they might send messages or representatives to future civilizations. This concept of 'message in a bottle' or 'time capsule' is seen as a way to connect across cosmic epochs.

UFOs as 'Artificial Black Holes':

Lisin connects these cosmological ideas to UFOs, proposing that UFOs might be 'containers' sent by civilizations from past universal cycles. He suggests that these containers could be technologically advanced, possibly in the form of 'miniature black holes.' This is based on the work of physicists like G. Chapline, who proposed a 'vortex model for rotating compact objects.' These models suggest that rotating objects can create 'closed time-like curves,' potentially allowing for the creation of 'artificial' black holes that do not have event horizons and can function as transformation mechanisms.

Lisin interprets the artistic depiction of a black hole with an accretion disk as similar to photographs of disk-shaped UFOs. He suggests that these 'artificial' black holes, unlike cosmic ones, could be created in a limited space without catastrophic environmental effects. He draws an analogy to nuclear energy, proposing the existence of both cosmic and 'man-made,' 'controllable' black holes.

Cryptography and UFOs:

Lisin, an electrophysicist, views UFOs as 'cryptographic structures' and 'embryos of the universe.' He believes that understanding UFOs requires knowledge of cryptography and steganography (the science of hidden information transmission). He notes that American physicists at the Livermore National Laboratory are working on theoretical models of 'artificial' black holes, inspired by the idea of rotating compact objects and the limitations of general relativity when dealing with such phenomena. These models suggest that the laws of general relativity break down for rotating objects, and that the incompatibility between general relativity and quantum mechanics is a fundamental issue.

American physicists suggest that a toroidal 'doughnut' shape is key to forming closed space-time continuums, where conventional laws of physics cease to apply. This could lead to the formation of a 'time machine.' The 'hole' of the torus becomes a receiver of 'vacuum energy,' acting as a 'man-made' black hole that can switch off local gravitational and electromagnetic laws and switch on cosmic ones, explaining the 'magical' kinematics of UFO trajectories.

Conclusion:

The article concludes that while early 20th-century astrophysics rejected UFOs as contradicting Einstein's theories, recent advances in quantum mechanics and quantum cosmology are increasingly forcing physicists to consider the possibility of such phenomena and the existence of advanced alien spacecraft that do not contradict quantum principles.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the limitations of current scientific paradigms (particularly Einsteinian physics) in explaining anomalous phenomena like UFOs, the exploration of speculative but potentially groundbreaking physics concepts (negative mass, microleptons, cyclic universes, artificial black holes), and the potential for these new ideas to bridge the gap between ufology and mainstream science. The editorial stance appears to be one of advocating for open-mindedness towards unconventional scientific theories and phenomena, encouraging a departure from rigid adherence to established scientific dogma to facilitate progress in understanding UFOs and the universe.

This issue of TUNNEL magazine features several articles exploring topics related to bioenergy, ufology, and unexplained phenomena.

Distant Influence of Blood from Acupuncture Point R2 on the Formation of Zooglea Fractals

This article by Yu.G. Simakov, M.G. Basina, V.B. Shamov, S.Kh. Gasanova, S.V. Semikov, and N.F. Kan investigates the phenomenon of intercellular interactions in living tissues, particularly in blood and bacterial suspensions. The authors explore how chaotic distribution of cells can lead to ordered structures, posing the question of how order arises from chaos in living systems. They hypothesize the existence of a remote factor influencing both blood cell aggregation and the formation of zooglea patterns in microorganisms.

The study utilized blood from acupuncture point R2 (Neiguan), located on the inner side of the right foot. This blood exhibited a unique characteristic: a lack of large erythrocyte rouleaux (coin stacks) compared to blood from other points. The researchers observed that when blood from R2 was introduced to bacterial zooglea from a biofilter, it induced the formation of specific patterns resembling "wheel spokes" or dendritic fractals. This effect was observed both with direct contact and with a remote influence, where blood was encased in cement within a glass ampoule, isolating it from direct chemical contact with the bacteria.

The experiments demonstrated that blood from R2, whether native or preserved in cement, acts as an inducer for zooglea pattern formation. The patterns formed by R2 blood were more pronounced than those from blood taken from other acupuncture points or the fingertip. The study suggests that this phenomenon might be related to the structured nature of plasma from R2, and that even "dead" blood, preserved in cement, can exert a remote influence, potentially through DNA or a morphogenetic field.

The authors propose that this discovery has practical implications for Eastern medicine, suggesting that preserved R2 blood preparations could be used for therapeutic purposes, transferring information to other acupuncture points or organs. The research highlights the potential for understanding the mechanism of fractal formation and the remote transfer of information.

"Cold War" Against... UFOs: The USA Feared Aliens, Not the Soviet Union

This article by Savely Kashnitsky, citing Vladimir Vasiliev, a chief scientific associate at the Institute of USA and Canada, suggests that for over half a century, the US government has been allocating significant funds to study the threat posed by extraterrestrial intelligence. Vasiliev's analysis of US budget documents, decrees, and laws indicates a long-standing concern about UFOs and potential alien threats.

The article references the Roswell incident in New Mexico in 1947, where a flying object with an engine-less, four-humanoid crew reportedly crashed. Despite initial media reports, subsequent explanations pointed to advanced enemy technology or witness inadequacy, which Vasiliev attributes to a secrecy regime. The recovered wreckage and bodies were allegedly part of a top-secret project called "Majestic-12," aimed at studying and mastering UFO technologies.

Another section discusses alleged alien objects stored in Nevada. Colonel William Blanchard's press release about the Roswell incident is analyzed, with skeptics questioning his credibility. However, his military background and the strategic importance of the Roswell airbase suggest his statements aligned with US government positions at the time. The article speculates that the resemblance of the aliens to Japanese individuals might have played a role in the public discussion, given the recent memory of Pearl Harbor.

The article further explores the idea that the "Cold War" was, in part, a response to the threat of alien invasion rather than solely a conflict with the Soviet Union. It mentions Truman's declaration of a state of emergency in 1950 following a reported UFO downing in the northeastern USA. The analysis of the crashed UFO's capabilities, designed for Earth's environment, fueled these concerns. The possibility of aliens demanding the return of wreckage and bodies in the 1980s, leading to the development of the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) or "Star Wars" program, is also raised.

Former President Clinton is quoted stating that a site in Nevada, where UFO wreckage and alien bodies were allegedly stored, was a "serious object" containing extraterrestrial artifacts.

Arctic Mysteries

This section, authored by Dmitry Pisarenko, explores unexplained phenomena in the Arctic region. A sailor named Gleb recounts seeing a UFO while on duty on the icebreaker "Rossiya," but his account was dismissed by colleagues.

• The article describes various optical phenomena observed in the Arctic, including:
• Upper mirages: Vessels and islands appearing to float above the horizon, caused by atmospheric density variations.
• Halos: Luminous rings or pillars of light around the sun, due to light refraction through ice crystals.
• Ice pillars with structures: Structures appearing to stand on stilts on ice floes, explained as remnants of old dwellings that are gradually elevated as the ice melts from the top.

Another phenomenon discussed is the formation of zigzag lines on the ice surface, referred to as "combs" or "teeth." These are explained as the result of ice floes colliding and overlapping, creating rectangular zigzags along the boundaries of the intrusion.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores fringe science, paranormal phenomena, and alternative explanations for observed events. The articles on bioenergy and morphogenetic fields suggest a belief in subtle energies and non-electromagnetic forms of information transfer. The ufology articles present a perspective that views UFOs and potential alien contact as a significant, long-standing concern for governments, particularly the US. The Arctic section highlights the mysterious and unexplained aspects of nature, hinting at possibilities beyond conventional scientific understanding. The overall stance appears to be one of open inquiry into topics often considered outside mainstream science, with a particular focus on ufology and unconventional biological interactions.

This issue of "Тоннель" (Tunnel) magazine, published in 2012 as issue number 42, is from the "АКАДЕМИЯ ИНФОРМАЦИОЛОГИЧЕСКОЙ И ПРИКЛАДНОЙ УФОЛОГИИ" (Academy of Informational and Applied Ufology). The cover highlights the intriguing possibility of seeing "2 suns instead of one in the Arctic" and includes the author and source information.

Arctic UFO Sightings

The magazine begins with accounts of UFO sightings in the Arctic. Alexander Barinov recounts an experience where a sky turned purple and shimmering, initially thought to be fireworks but later identified as a rocket stage separation from a launch at Plesetsk. Two years prior, residents of northern Norway witnessed the "Norwegian spiral anomaly," a strange glowing object moving in a spiral that transformed into a large sphere with a green core. Various theories, including the Large Hadron Collider or extraterrestrial visitors, were proposed. The Russian Ministry of Defense later announced a Bulava missile test failure, which many linked to the anomaly, though the exact connection remains unclear.

Military sailors are said to regularly observe UFOs in polar regions. Ufologist Vladimir Azhazha has collected numerous testimonies and classified documents on the subject. Sailor Dmitry Glebov shares his experience from three years ago while working on the icebreaker "Yamal." On a clear night, he saw a glowing object to his right, which he steered towards. The object then emitted a beam of light and vanished.

Further contributing to the Arctic mystery, the article mentions perfectly circular holes in the ice, 15-20 meters in diameter, speculated to be made by UFOs. Sailors have dubbed the associated sounds "quackers" or "quakers," noting that frogs are not found in the Arctic Ocean, and seals or polar bears make different sounds.

The Enigma of Nazca Geometry

The second major section, titled "The Enigma of Nazca Geometry" (a chapter from the book "The Charm of Mystery"), delves into the mysteries of the Nazca Lines in Peru. The article is attributed to Rostislav Furduy.

Maria's Vigil in the Desert

The narrative focuses on Maria, a woman who has dedicated 40 years to studying the Nazca geoglyphs. She is awakened by the sound of rain, a rare event in the desert, which poses a threat to her drawings. Her childhood memories of rain are contrasted with her current anxiety about the preservation of the ancient figures. She recalls her early days in Nazca, where she met Professor Paul Kosok, an American professor who introduced her to the mysterious lines and geoglyphs.

Kosok hypothesized that the lines indicated astronomical positions of the sun, moon, and stars, suggesting the Nazca people used them to determine agricultural cycles. He famously called Nazca "the greatest astronomical book in the world."

Theories and Critiques

After Kosok's death, Maria continued her work, measuring, photographing, and mapping the geoglyphs. She has documented thousands of lines, spirals, and figures, covering an area of approximately 70 by 15 kilometers. Her efforts include protecting the sites from damage by tourists and vehicles.

However, the article introduces a challenge to Kosok's hypothesis: American astronomer Dr. G. Hawkins, using a computer, analyzed hundreds of Nazca lines and found that only about 20% had any astronomical correlation, concluding that the lines did not have astronomical significance. This finding shattered Kosok's theory and Maria's lifelong pursuit.

Archaeologists proposed a "ritual hypothesis," suggesting the lines were used for processions and dances. Another variation suggested the animal figures represented totems of indigenous tribes. However, the immense scale of the geoglyphs makes it difficult to understand how they could have served a ritualistic purpose for people on the ground. The article notes that even walking along the lines could damage them, and Maria herself wore special soft shoes to avoid disturbing the desert floor.

The "Sky-Dweller" Hypothesis and Beyond

A newer version of the ritual hypothesis suggests the geoglyphs were intended for "sky-dwellers" or gods. American researchers D. Woodman, W. Sporer, and D. North proposed that ancient priests used hot air balloons to ascend and observe the geoglyphs, suggesting a level of technological advancement beyond what is typically attributed to the Nazca culture.

I. Rudin proposed a "ritualistic sacrifice" theory, suggesting the work was penance for the spirits. Another theory by Izbel suggested the geoglyphs were a form of public works to reduce the birth rate among ancient Peruvians. Italian L. Mazotti suggested the lines represented a map of the night sky, but this was not widely supported.

Erich von Däniken noted the similarity of the Nazca lines to modern airfields, questioning if they were related to extraterrestrial visitors. This was met with strong opposition from historians and archaeologists, including Peruvian mathematician Maria Scholten, who defended the Nazca people's ability to create these works without alien intervention.

The "Who, When, and How" Questions

The article poses fundamental questions about the Nazca geoglyphs: Who created them, when, and how?

What they are: The geoglyphs appear as lighter lines and shapes against the darker desert surface. Close inspection reveals they are shallow trenches from which dark pebbles have been removed, exposing the lighter soil beneath. These pebbles are piled along the edges of the lines, forming low mounds.

Climate: The extremely dry climate of the Nazca plateau, with its southeastern trade winds, has preserved the geoglyphs for centuries. However, this aridity makes agriculture and human settlement difficult, with irrigation only possible in rare river valleys.

Dating and Attribution: Archaeologists attribute the geoglyphs to the Nazca culture (2nd century BCE to 5th century CE), based on the discovery of Nazca pottery in the region. However, Maria Scholten points out that Nazca pottery has been found on top of the geoglyphs, suggesting the lines are older than the pottery, and that the styles are different.

Scale of Work: The sheer volume of work is staggering. Maria Reiche estimated that removing the stones for the large figures alone would have required 500 man-years of labor. The precise marking of lines stretching for kilometers, in remote and arid conditions without draft animals or advanced tools, presents a significant challenge to the accepted timeline and technological capabilities of the Nazca people.

Precision: The lines are remarkably straight, with an average deviation of only 9 arc minutes, a precision comparable to modern photogrammetric work. The article questions how such accuracy could be achieved without advanced instruments, noting that even modern surveyors struggle to draw such straight lines over long distances.

Topographical Challenges: The lines often traverse difficult terrain, including steep slopes, without deviating from their intended direction, further questioning the methods used for their creation.

The "Star-Shaped" Centers: Figure 76 illustrates star-shaped centers from which lines radiate. These centers are sometimes located on hilltops or even on steep slopes, posing a logistical problem for any triangulation network. The article argues that placing these centers on slopes is unnecessary and complicates the process.

Paradox of Achievement: The article draws a parallel with the Great Pyramid of Giza, highlighting the paradox where the scale and quality of work far exceed the presumed technological capabilities of the society that created it.

"Roads" and "Platforms": In addition to lines, there are "roads" (strips up to 60 cm wide) and "platforms" (geometric shapes like rectangles, trapezoids, and triangles). Many of these platforms are narrow, highly elongated triangles with apex angles as small as 17°.

Giant Figures: The Nazca site also features hundreds of giant figures of animals, plants (?), and fantastical creatures. Figure 77 shows 11 of the most typical examples. The smallest figure, a spider, is about 45 meters in diameter, while a "snake-neck" figure exceeds 250 meters in length.

Symbolic Representations: The figures are highly simplified, appearing more as graphic symbols than realistic depictions. The article notes the difficulty in identifying some figures, such as the "condor" (11) which has an ibis-like beak, or the "snake-neck" (5) with a disproportionately long neck. The "whale" (9) has ear-like protrusions, and another figure is variously called an "octopus," "seaweed," or "tree" (6).

The "Spider" and "Colibri": The spider figure (11) has been identified by some biologists as a ricinuleid spider, known for its copulatory organ on its leg. However, the article suggests this is a misinterpretation, as similar "copulatory organs" appear on other figures like the "colibri" (2) and "monkey" (8), likely serving as connecting elements to the line network.

Unidentified Figures: Some figures do not resemble any known animals. Figure 10 is described as a shapeless sack with two arm-like appendages, one with five fingers and the other with four. Maria Scholten interpreted this as a sitting monkey, but the article disputes this.

Dominant Figures: According to Maria Reiche, birds are the most common figures (18), followed by marine creatures. All figures are drawn with a single, continuous line that never intersects itself, connecting back to the line network.

Mathematical Precision: The article emphasizes the "mathematical" precision and harmony of the drawings, quoting Dr. Hawkins who described the Nazca images as "hell in frozen mathematics." Computer programmers, when shown the drawings without context, identified them as being created by a plotter.

Methods of Creation: Maria Reiche hypothesized that the ancient Peruvians first drew a model and then transferred a scaled-up version to the ground. She suggested they used mental calculations for proportions and a rope and peg system for drawing curves. However, the article notes that no evidence of grid systems or auxiliary circles has been found.

The "Rope and Peg" Debate: The article questions how perfect double spirals, 320 meters in diameter, could be created with just ropes and pegs, especially when over a hundred such spirals exist at Nazca.

Acknowledgement of Advanced Tools: The article concludes that Maria Reiche eventually acknowledged that the ancient Peruvians "must have used instruments and equipment that are unknown to us and that perished along with the ancient knowledge, escaping the attention of the conquistadors, who were interested in nothing but treasure." This implies that primitive methods were insufficient for such a feat.

The "Project Nazca" Question: The article poses the ultimate question: If the pre-Columbian Indians lacked the means, then who, when, and why created the Nazca project?

Surveying the Terrain?

The analysis of Nazca materials suggests a layered construction process:

1. Initial Network: A grid of "reference points" was established, from which thin lines of varying lengths were drawn. Some thin lines were added independently.
2. Figurative Drawings: Animal figures and other symbolic drawings were created, with their outlines typically connected to one of the thin lines.
3. "Roads": "Roads" were then added.
4. Area Figures: Large area figures (triangles, trapezoids, and strips) were created, with some strips overlapping others, indicating multiple stages of construction.

Figure 79 illustrates this process on a specific section of the pampa, showing the sequence of lines, a spider figure, "roads," and overlapping strips. Figure 80 shows two other sections where strips partially obscure the line network and stylized bird figures.

Challenging Hypotheses: The article argues that the overlapping and partial destruction of earlier figures contradict the totem or sky-dweller hypotheses. It suggests that the creators of the Nazca geoglyphs were not necessarily attached to specific figures, and that the work progressed in stages by the same group of people.

Pattern in Platforms: Figure 76 shows a pattern in the placement of platforms (mostly elongated triangles), oriented along two main directions: NW 345°-SE 165° and NE 70°-SW 250°. These platforms form a grid of slightly skewed rectangles.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

This issue of "Тоннель" focuses on unexplained phenomena, presenting accounts of UFO sightings in the Arctic and exploring the enduring mystery of the Nazca Lines. The editorial stance appears to favor critical inquiry into these phenomena, questioning conventional explanations and highlighting the limitations of current archaeological and historical understanding when faced with evidence of advanced ancient capabilities or unexplained aerial events. The magazine emphasizes the need for further investigation and acknowledges the possibility of unknown technologies or intelligences, both in ancient times and in contemporary UFO reports.

This issue of "Tekhnika-Molodezhi" (Technology for Youth) from May 1995 delves into the mysteries of the Nazca Lines in Peru, presenting a detailed analysis that leans heavily into theories of advanced ancient technology and extraterrestrial involvement. The primary focus is on interpreting the purpose and creation method of these enigmatic geoglyphs.

The Geodetic Survey Hypothesis

The article begins by examining the large-scale patterns of the Nazca Lines, noting their alignment with geological fault lines. The author, Rostislav Furduy, proposes that the lines represent a sophisticated geodetic survey, with creators meticulously identifying and marking zones of high geological activity and energy saturation. These zones are described as active fault lines where tectonic plates collide, leading to earthquakes and volcanic activity. The article suggests that these areas are also characterized by anomalous electromagnetic fields and thermal flows, and are considered 'geopathogenic' due to powerful 'torsion field' emissions.

The process is theorized to have involved an initial stage of identifying these energy-rich areas, followed by a more detailed mapping. The author posits that the creators used a remote sensing method from a significant height, possibly using a focused energy beam, similar to modern radar or laser scanning, but leaving physical traces on the ground.

The 'Condor' Case Study

A specific example is the 'condor' figure, whose distorted shape is attributed to being projected onto the ground at an angle other than 90 degrees. Through computer-aided transformation, the author and an associate attempted to reconstruct the original projection angle and height, suggesting it was created from an altitude of 355 meters at a 14-degree angle to the horizon.

Symbols and Information Carriers

It is suggested that the stylized animal figures found in Nazca were not merely decorative but served as markers or symbols conveying qualitative information about the energy-saturated areas. This is compared to modern road signs or topographical map symbols.

The 'Whip' and 'Tree' Patterns

The article then analyzes specific types of Nazca drawings, termed 'whips' and 'trees'. The 'whip' pattern, consisting of a narrow triangle with a zigzag line, is interpreted as a method for precisely defining the width and orientation of an anomalous zone. The 'tree' pattern, along with a 'bag with hands' (interpreted as a 'sitting monkey'), is seen as marking the approximate length and width of a geologically significant area.

The 'Monkey' Figure

The famous 'monkey' figure is examined, noting its spiral tail as a marker for an anomalous zone. The author suggests that the search for energy zones involved a process of sequential scanning, with the 'monkey' figure's extended paws possibly indicating the direction of the anomaly. The precision and systematic nature of these markings are presented as evidence for automated execution.

The 'Comb' and 'Chessboard' Patterns

Further analysis focuses on aerial photographs of the Pampa, revealing patterns that resemble a 'comb' or 'chessboard'. These patterns, consisting of parallel lines and dots/dashes, are described as having a fine internal structure, suggesting they were created by a mechanical device. The 'comb' pattern, with its four parallel lines, is thought to be the result of a 'scanning' device with a limited 'depth of field'. The 'chessboard' pattern is compared to modern airport landing systems (VASIS/PAPI), suggesting a shared principle of raster-based information display.

Torsion Fields and Ancient Technology

A significant portion of the article is dedicated to the concept of 'torsion fields' – a theoretical form of energy. The author proposes that some Nazca patterns, particularly circular and square designs resembling mandalas, may have acted as 'torsion field transmitters' or 'antennas' for a 'torsion telescope'. This is presented as a more advanced stage of torsion technology compared to earlier megalithic structures like Stonehenge or the pyramids of Giza.

The Mandala Figure

The 'mandala' figure, a triple circle within intersecting squares, is discussed in detail. It is suggested that this pattern, along with others, might have served to focus or modify terrestrial torsion flows, acting as a sophisticated antenna. The evolution of these patterns is compared to the miniaturization and advancement seen in terrestrial radio electronics, from vacuum tubes to microchips.

Conclusion and Author Information

The article concludes that the precision and systematic nature of the Nazca markings strongly suggest they were created by a machine, not by human hands. The author, Rostislav Furduy, is identified as a Ukrainian paleo-urologist and candidate of geological-mineralogical sciences, a member of the International Society for Ancient Astronautics.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the interpretation of the Nazca Lines as evidence of advanced ancient technology, possibly extraterrestrial in origin. The magazine consistently explores theories that challenge conventional archaeological explanations, favoring hypotheses that involve sophisticated engineering, energy manipulation (specifically torsion fields), and a purpose beyond mere artistic expression or astronomical observation. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into such unconventional theories, presenting them as plausible explanations for the enduring mysteries of ancient civilizations.

This issue of "ТОННЕЛЬ" (TUNNEL), issue № 42 from 2012, published by the Academy of Informational and Applied Ufology, is titled "СЕТЬ БИОТОКОВ В НАСКЕ?" (Network of Biotoks in Nazca?). The issue features an article by Michael Huber, with commentary by R.S. Furdui, exploring the enigmatic Nazca lines and their potential connection to underground water systems. It also includes articles by Sergey Sharygin on the relationship between lizards, UFOs, and earthquakes, and by Mikhail Taranov on the phenomenon of Rosemary Brown and the possibility of disembodied composers dictating music.

Network of Biotoks in Nazca?

Michael Huber's article delves into the mystery of the Nazca lines in Peru, questioning their purpose and origin. He introduces the concept of "puquios," ancient underground water channels that supplied water to the Nazca culture. Huber notes that while these puquios are well-constructed, their connection to the geoglyphs remains unclear. He presents the hypothesis that the lines might be related to underground water veins, citing research by Dr. David Johnson, who proposed that trapezoids in Nazca are located directly above water and triangles point to water sources. This hypothesis was tested in 1998 but not definitively confirmed. The article also mentions Dr. Anthony Aveni's findings that many lines run parallel to underground water flows and point towards Cerro Blanco, a mountain associated with water legends.

Huber also explores a more speculative theory: that the lines and puquios could represent a "network of biotoks of the gods," suggesting that extraterrestrial beings might have created these systems for their own needs, possibly related to energy or water.

Puquios (Puquios)

This section elaborates on the puquios, describing them as over 30 wells or springs connected by underground tunnels. These structures, lined with river pebbles and built without cement, provided access to underground water. While many are still functional, they have been modernized with mechanical pumps and concrete. The purpose of these systems, whether for supplying settlements or for the builders of the lines, is debated. Professor Glen Silverman's research suggests that most surface geoglyphs are not directly linked to settlement remains.

Lines as Water Indicators

Dr. David Johnson's 1996 hypothesis that Nazca lines serve as markers for underground water veins is discussed. His theory suggests that trapezoids are positioned above water, and triangles indicate water sources. A 1998 interdisciplinary study by geologists and archaeologists could neither confirm nor refute this. The purpose of small reservoirs, or "kochas," is also debated, with possibilities including access to underground channels or entrances for maintenance.

"Tunnel" Issue 42 (2012) - Additional Content

Caral - An Ancient Parallel?

The article "Караль – древняя параллель" (Caral - An Ancient Parallel?) by Sergey Sharygin explores the ancient city of Caral in Peru, suggesting a connection to the Nazca lines. Caral, a city that flourished around 2600 BCE, also features geoglyphic lines associated with underground water flows. The city's layout and monumental architecture are described, along with the mystery of its sudden abandonment. Sharygin notes that the main pyramid in Caral is situated directly above an underground water vein, indicated by a circular structure. Similar geoglyphic lines are found southwest of Caral, also linked to underground water. Dr. Johnson believes that the city planners of Caral were aware of these water veins and incorporated them into their construction plans. The article suggests that geoglyphic lines may have originated in Caral, predating Nazca by 2000 years.

Conductors of Current?

Huber proposes a speculative theory that extraterrestrial beings might have created the Nazca lines and channels to serve as "electrical cables" for their spacecraft or bases, utilizing water's conductivity. He refers to this as a "network of biotoks of the gods."

New Geoglyphs in Nazca

A report on the discovery of two new geoglyphs in Nazca in January 2011 by Japanese researchers is included. These depict a human head and an animal, found near temple ruins. These findings, along with over 100 other geoglyphs discovered since 2006, are dated to the early Nazca culture or are potentially older.

Lizards, UFOs, and Earthquakes

Sergey Sharygin's article examines the correlation between animal behavior, UFO sightings, and seismic activity. He notes that animals often exhibit anomalous behavior before earthquakes and when UFOs appear. Sharygin discusses research on the magnetospheric and ionospheric aspects of UFO flights, citing studies that found statistically significant correlations between magnetic storms, ionospheric disturbances, and changes in Earth's magnetic field. He also reports on observations of geomagnetic field fluctuations in Crimea during UFO flyovers. The article suggests that a common electromagnetic signal influences both animals and potentially UFOs, and that this signal may be related to energy-rich zones and torsion fields associated with fault lines.

Sharygin highlights that animal reactions to UFOs are similar to their reactions before earthquakes, with some species showing distress. He mentions that UFOs are often observed near fault lines, even in non-seismic areas. The article touches upon the idea that UFOs might influence or reduce tectonic stress. It also notes that some researchers believe animals, due to their ancient evolutionary connection to seismic events, possess a mechanism that alerts them to danger, and that this sensitivity might extend to UFO phenomena.

Is There a Soul?

Mikhail Taranov's article "ЕСТЬ ЛИ У ЧЕЛОВЕКА ДУША?" (Is There a Soul?) explores the concept of the soul and its potential existence beyond physical death. It recounts the story of Rosemary Brown, a housewife who allegedly received musical compositions dictated by deceased composers like Liszt, Chopin, and Beethoven. These compositions were reportedly verified as matching the styles of the original composers. The article then discusses scientific research into the soul, including studies by E. Kugis in Lithuania, which suggested that a dying person loses 3-7 grams of weight, possibly representing the soul's weight. Other experiments, including those at Princeton University, attempted to measure the soul's influence on physical objects. The article also mentions research by Russian scientists, such as Professor Konstantin Korotkov, who used specialized equipment to observe changes in the luminescence of substances in magnetic fields, potentially indicating the departure of the soul from the body.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue revolve around unexplained phenomena, ancient mysteries, and the intersection of science and the paranormal. The magazine appears to lean towards exploring speculative theories, particularly those involving extraterrestrial intelligence and unconventional scientific explanations for natural and unexplained events. The editorial stance seems to be one of open inquiry into these subjects, encouraging readers to consider possibilities beyond mainstream scientific consensus, as exemplified by the quote from Erich von Däniken.

This issue of "NLO" (№ 18 (682), 2011) delves into profound questions about the human soul, the existence of non-biological life forms, and the potential impact of extraterrestrial civilizations on humanity's future. The articles explore scientific and speculative theories, historical accounts, and personal testimonies.

The Soul and Immortality

The issue begins by referencing the work of K. Korotkov, who suggests that experiments have convinced him of the soul's existence and immortality, proposing that death is merely a transformation. Modern research, according to the article, indicates that the soul has weight, form, and color, though its scientific nature remains elusive. The concept of the soul is further explored through the lens of "extracellular information structures" as proposed by ufologist Yu.A. Fomin. Fomin highlights the discrepancy between the information capacity of a single cell and the vast amount of information required for human development, suggesting that this information is stored in a multidimensional structure surrounding the cell, which he identifies as the soul. This structure, he posits, uses the human body as a biological machine. Upon death, this information structure, or soul, is believed to persist, retaining the subject's information and even exhibiting some activity due to residual energy, which might manifest in spiritualistic contacts.

The article touches upon the traditional mourning periods of "nine days" and "forty days" as reflections of humanity's understanding of the soul's transition. It concludes that death should be viewed not as an annihilation of personality but as a transition to a different qualitative state where the soul continues to exist, sometimes interacting with the physical world. The ideas are supported by the work of physicist G. Shipov, who theorizes about the universe as a giant computer with infinite memory, accessible to human consciousness.

Anomalous Phenomena and Energy Beings

A significant portion of the issue is dedicated to anomalous phenomena, particularly "fiery balls" or "elementals." These are described as non-biological life forms that have been observed throughout history, from ancient Roman accounts of fiery spheres burning workers to modern video recordings. The article details an encounter by researcher Dmitry Regan with a fiery ball near Bolshie Udoly, describing its size, appearance, and behavior. The Zhiguli region is highlighted as a hotspot for these phenomena, with local accounts of "air parades" of fiery balls. The scientific explanation offered by Canadian professor Michael Persinger suggests that these phenomena can arise from tectonic shifts generating electrical energy in rocky formations, leading to the formation of ball lightning-like objects.

However, the article also explores less conventional explanations, including the possibility of "non-protein life" existing on Earth. The case of a US Air Force transport plane crash in 1939 near San Diego, where all passengers were found dead with strange burns, is presented as evidence of encounters with unknown entities. American researcher Charles Fort's hypothesis about gelatinous organisms in the atmosphere, similar to jellyfish, is discussed, with the development of "aerogel" lending some credence to this idea. The possibility of energetic life forms, described in ancient texts as "fiery clots," is also considered.

Encounters with such beings are suggested to occur in energetically active regions, particularly near the Earth's magnetic poles. The harrowing experience of a Soviet expedition to the South Magnetic Pole in 1959 is recounted, where most members died after encounters with glowing spheres, leaving only two survivors and one with memory loss.

UFOs and Extraterrestrial Civilizations

The issue addresses the existence of UFOs and extraterrestrial visitors. The article mentions the famous 1947 sighting by Kenneth Arnold, which popularized the term "flying saucer." It is stated that over 8,000 cases of UFO appearances have been recorded since then. The possibility of aliens influencing human civilization is raised, with some theories suggesting humans are a result of genetic modification by extraterrestrials.

Resource Depletion and Alien Intervention

Looking towards the future, the article highlights the projected population growth to 9 billion by 2050 and the impending depletion of natural resources like oil and gas. British scientist Jared Diamond's comparison of current human challenges to those faced by ancient civilizations like the Maya and Easter Islanders, which led to their demise, is presented as a cautionary tale. The article suggests that, similar to a lost island in the cosmic ocean, Earth might attract galactic visitors who could help humanity by providing advanced technologies, such as "eternal engines," and assisting with environmental issues.

Government Secrecy and Alien Technology

The role of governments in concealing information about UFOs and alien contact is questioned. The article mentions that leaders of America and Russia reportedly have regular meetings with extraterrestrials. The existence of "Area 51" and the Roswell UFO crash are cited as examples of alleged government cover-ups. The article advocates for governments to declassify information and utilize alien technologies, particularly for addressing climate change and the consequences of burning fossil fuels. Former Canadian Minister of Defense Paul Hellyer is quoted urging governments to reveal what they know about technologies that could save the planet.

The "Greys" and Their Origins

A detailed section is dedicated to "grey aliens," often depicted with grey skin and black eyes. According to secret project materials and Soviet defense program data, these beings claim to originate from the star group "Reticulum," located 37 light-years away. They describe their home as a planet orbiting binary stars, with a cold climate in the polar regions. The "greys" are divided into two types: "natural," resembling humanoids with reptilian qualities, and "modified," a smaller, subservient breed developed by a more technologically advanced civilization from the Orion constellation. The Orionians reportedly used the "greys" as a labor force but, due to racial animosity and physical strength, created the modified, cloned version. This cloning process, however, led to the "greys" becoming infertile, and they have since been genetically experimenting, allegedly using abducted humans and animals on Earth.

Anatomy and Intelligence of the "Greys"

The article describes the physical characteristics of the "greys," noting their grey skin (a result of radiation protection), black, opaque eyes (protective filters), and a lack of body hair. They possess an organ in their frontal lobe for electromagnetic communication, with a limited range. Their hearing and sense of smell are adapted to their environment, and they lack a digestive tract, absorbing nutrients from a liquid bath. Their respiratory system includes lungs and a combined heart-liver organ, with a "reverse esophagus" regulating nutrient intake. Notably, "greys" lack reproductive organs and have four-fingered hands and feet.

Their intelligence quotient (IQ) is reported to be exceptionally high (250), but they struggle with intuition and rely heavily on formal logic. Encounters with "greys" have sometimes involved long delays in decision-making, which are thought to be related to lunar cycles, suggesting a possible reliance on a cosmic relay system for guidance.

"Greys" Technology and Recommendations for Contact

The "greys" are described as not being innovators but rather users of technology provided by the Orion civilization, limited to prevent posing a threat to their creators. They are skilled at operating and maintaining equipment but are discouraged from pursuing their own scientific research. The article strongly advises against any contact with "greys," stating that such encounters are unlikely to improve human lives. If abducted, the recommended self-defense strategy is to feign mental incapacitation. The article concludes that official channels are unlikely to provide protection, and individuals must rely on their own resources.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue include the nature of consciousness and the soul, the existence of unexplained aerial phenomena and non-biological life forms, and the potential influence of extraterrestrial civilizations on humanity. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into these subjects, presenting various theories and accounts, while also expressing caution regarding direct contact with certain alien species. The magazine encourages readers to consider alternative explanations for phenomena and to be aware of the potential implications of alien contact for the future of humanity.

This issue of 'ТОННЕЛЬ' (Issue № 42, 2012), published by the ACADEMY OF INFORMATIONAL AND APPLIED UFOLOGY, is titled 'Games of the ENLONAUTS' and authored by Alexander Volodev. It is presented as an archive piece from the journal 'Kaleidoscope UFO'. The magazine explores various unexplained phenomena, including UFO sightings, alleged alien interactions, ancient mysteries, and advanced technologies, drawing from historical accounts and research.

Games of the ENLONAUTS by Alexander Volodev

The article by Alexander Volodev posits that UFO pilots engage in 'games' with humans, using complex situations to study Earthlings' reactions. It recounts the experience of Police Chief Henry Maur in Folkwill, Alabama, on September 23, 1973. Maur reported seeing strange, transparent helicopters and later encountered a hovering object that crushed his car's roof. A figure emerged from the object, was hit by the car, but then ran away engulfed in flames, with the car inexplicably following the figure. Maur managed to photograph the event, with the developed film showing a figure in an Apollo-style spacesuit.

Maur questioned why the running figure wasn't captured on film. The article suggests this was part of a 'global test program.' It also references an incident in August 1978 in Uzbekistan, where a 'flotilla of UFOs' over the Nukus airfield performed acrobatic maneuvers, interacting with ground vehicles by causing extreme heat and cold. An eyewitness, Professor Nikolai Olyannikov, described the objects as resembling aircraft but stated, 'We are not here, but we are everywhere.'

A chilling case from October 1992 in Puebla, Mexico, involved a tourist couple, the Geringers, whose rental car stalled. Their car was then enveloped in a white light and lifted into the air, eventually exploding. Authorities proposed a theory of 'aerial hooligans.' The article cites statistics from David Ricci's 'Encyclopedia of UFOs and Aliens,' stating that 810 people have been victims of 'enlonaut games' over two decades, suffering deaths through crushed cars, burned homes, and aerial collisions.

Aliens in the Service of the Führer by Valentin Psalomshchikov

Valentin Psalomshchikov's article investigates claims that American 'stealth' aircraft, like the F-117 and B-2, were designed with the help of alien specialists from flying saucers. These claims were reportedly linked to secret labs in Nevada, specifically at the USAF base in Watertown Strip, known as Area 51. Ufologist Bob Lazar is mentioned as a proponent of these theories.

The article contrasts the military's denial of UFOs in the Roswell incident (claiming it was a weather balloon) and the dismissal of the 'Philadelphia Experiment' as a hoax. However, it notes that the military remained silent on Lazar's claims about stealth aircraft, implying tacit agreement. The author then presents research by military historian A.A. Zapolskis, who identified the B-2 bomber's prototype as a German jet bomber from World War II, the Horten HO-229, developed by brothers Walter and Reimar Horten.

The HO-229, designed in 1944, was a wooden aircraft that met the project's requirements for carrying 1000 kg of bombs over 1000 km at 1000 km/h. Its design incorporated features like a radar-absorbent coating (using graphite, charcoal, sawdust, and glue) and a system to cool exhaust gases, making it nearly invisible to radar and infrared detection. The article argues that American companies like Northrop, despite receiving billions in subsidies, essentially copied this German design, which was simpler and cheaper to produce.

American forces captured a HO-229 prototype and related documents in Friedrichsrode, Germany, in April 1945. These were transferred to Northrop. The article suggests that the 'super-project' for the moon landing was also largely the work of former German engineers, led by Wernher von Braun, and that the trajectory calculations for Apollo missions were based on the work of Soviet rocket engineer Yuri Kondratyuk.

Nazca is Drowning... in Versions by Mark Sokolov

Mark Sokolov's article explores the mysteries of the Nazca Lines in Peru. The name 'Nazca' means 'place where it is hard to live,' yet the ancient inhabitants developed sophisticated aqueduct systems. The article describes the Chauchilla cemetery, where mummies are found in a fetal position, some with elaborate hairstyles.

Tourists can view the Nazca Lines from the air via small aircraft, with pilots pointing out figures like a spider, hummingbird, and parrot. The article notes that only a small percentage of the lines form recognizable figures, covering hundreds of square kilometers. The purpose of these lines remains a mystery, with over thirty hypotheses proposed.

Some believe the lines are an astronomical calendar, though only 20-30% of the lines are oriented towards celestial objects. Another popular theory is that Nazca was a landing site for UFOs, as suggested by Erich von Däniken. The article questions how the ancient people, without the ability to fly, could have created these images visible only from the air.

The article highlights the thousands of straight lines and geometric figures (triangles, trapezoids, spirals) that crisscross the desert, which researcher Gerald Hawkins called 'hell of frozen mathematics.' The precision of these lines, unaffected by the terrain, is baffling. Ufologist Alla Tarasovna Belokon suggests the figures were created from the air using directed energy, similar to crop circles, and estimates that manually creating them would have taken 100,000 person-years. The origin of the removed soil, estimated at thousands of cubic meters, is also unknown.

Another puzzle is the depiction of a figure with nine fingers, which some attribute to the nine-month summer heat in Nazca. The article considers the possibility that these images were intended for 'celestial viewers' rather than humans. It also entertains the idea that ancient peoples, perhaps Neanderthals, developed flight capabilities using trained lizards or hot air balloons, making the lines road signs for aviators.

The article concludes by emphasizing the need to preserve the Nazca Lines, noting that parts of the 188-meter-long reptile image were destroyed during the construction of the Pan-American Highway.

Juan Moritz and the Subterranean Atlanteans by Viktor Bumagin

Viktor Bumagin's article introduces Janos Juan Moritz, an Argentine entrepreneur and ethnologist who discovered a vast network of ancient underground tunnels in a desolate area of South America in 1965. Moritz claimed these tunnels extended for thousands of kilometers, passing under Argentina, Peru, and Ecuador. He described the tunnel walls as smooth and polished, with flat ceilings glazed over. In one gallery, Moritz reportedly found 'metal books' (plaquettes) weighing twenty kilograms, measuring 96 by 48 centimeters, inscribed with mysterious symbols. Researchers like Stanley Hall, Petronio Jaramillo, and Erich von Däniken speculated these were part of a library from a lost ancient civilization or contained prophecies and extraterrestrial knowledge.

Inside the library, objects resembling a table and chairs were found, made of an unknown material, possibly a ceramic or composite similar to those used in aviation and spaceflight. Moritz also discovered numerous golden figurines of animals, including elephants, crocodiles, monkeys, and jaguars. One floor drawing depicted a man soaring above the planet, suggesting ancient knowledge of Earth's spherical shape. Another figure showed a being holding the Moon and Sun, and a 'clown' or 'pilot' figure wore a helmet with headphones and gloves.

Among the artifacts was a golden model of a supersonic passenger jet, the 'Concorde,' which aviation experts believe is a genuine model. The article notes that pure gold is not found in nature and is produced through modern industrial processes, questioning how ancient civilizations could have possessed such technology.

A drawing of an extinct lizard was also found, dating the tunnels to between the 4th and 9th millennia BC, long after dinosaurs became extinct. The construction of these tunnels, with their perfectly smooth walls and polished surfaces, is considered beyond current technological capabilities, leading to speculation about extraterrestrial involvement.

The Quarrel Between Moritz and von Däniken

Moritz believed Hungarian roots were fundamental to many civilizations. He later met Erich von Däniken, showing him an entrance to cave labyrinths that supposedly led to a large underground hall. Von Däniken described the corridors as having sharp turns, varying widths, smooth walls, and lacquered ceilings. However, Moritz later denied ever visiting the caves with von Däniken, damaging his credibility and leading to suspicions that von Däniken fabricated his findings.

One Step Further

Despite the falling out, Moritz gained new followers, including American researcher Stanley Hall. They planned an expedition to the 'Cueva de los Tejos' in Ecuador, believed to be the entrance to the underground library. They sought a prominent figure to lead the expedition, approaching American astronaut Neil Armstrong, who expressed interest. The expedition was a joint venture between the Ecuadorian and British armies, supported by geologists and botanists. There was also an attempt to involve Prince Charles.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue of 'ТОННЕЛЬ' revolve around the unexplained and the extraordinary. The magazine consistently explores the possibility of extraterrestrial influence on human history, technology, and events, from ancient civilizations to modern military advancements. There's a strong emphasis on challenging conventional explanations and presenting alternative, often sensational, theories. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into UFO phenomena, ancient mysteries, and alleged alien interactions, presenting various accounts and research findings without necessarily endorsing them as definitive truth, but rather as subjects for contemplation and further investigation.

This document is an excerpt from the Russian magazine "НЛО" (UFO), issue number 20 (685), published in 2011. The excerpt, authored by Viktor Bumagin, focuses on an archaeological expedition and the ongoing search for a legendary "metallic library."

Expedition and Discoveries

The article details an expedition where, on August 3, 1976, Neil Armstrong reportedly entered an ancient tunnel system. While the primary objective of finding a metallic library was not achieved, the expedition made other significant discoveries. These included the cataloging of 400 new plant species and the uncovering of a burial chamber dated to 1500 BCE.

The Mystery of the Metallic Library

The concept of a "metallic library" is presented as a mysterious and elusive goal. Janusz Juan Moritz, who died in 1991, was said to have been secretive about underground locations. Following his death, like-minded individuals continued the search. Count Pino Turolla is cited as believing the metallic library is concrete evidence supporting the prophecies of Edgar Cayce. Stanley Hall spent years trying to ascertain the exact coordinates of the cave entrance from Petronio Jaramillo, but Jaramillo died in 1998, taking the secret with him.

Modern Search Efforts

The search for the metallic library continues in the present day. Stan Grist, referred to as a "new Indiana Jones," theorizes that the true entrance to the fabled cave is concealed underwater. He intends to organize a state-of-the-art expedition to the "Cueva de los Tejos" area to pursue this lead.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The excerpt touches upon themes of archaeological exploration, unexplained phenomena, ancient mysteries, and the enduring human quest for hidden knowledge. It highlights the intersection of historical events (like Armstrong's involvement) with speculative theories (Edgar Cayce's prophecies) and the persistent efforts of researchers to uncover evidence of advanced ancient civilizations or unknown technologies. The magazine appears to cover topics related to UFOs and other unexplained mysteries, as indicated by its title and the content presented.
