ÖVERSIKT (Overview)

The third national congress of UFO-Sverige, held in Motala on April 1-2, 1972, attracted a large number of interested individuals and UFO groups. Local and national press covered the event. Centralgruppen's chairman, Carl-Axel Jonzon, was interviewed on radio. A disappointment at the conference was the absence of Evert Karlsson from FOA 2, who was scheduled to discuss the Skirsjö incident, due to illness. Jaan Noor reported on the organization's financial needs, highlighting the necessity of private donations. The congress approved the establishment of a support fund for UFO-Sverige, with a priority list for its use: 1. UFO Information magazine, 2. Analysis costs and travel for expert group members, 3. Travel expenses for PR section speakers, and 4. Administrative costs for the organization. The membership fee remained unchanged. A special postgiro account, 'UFO-Sveriges stödfond,' was set up for the fund, managed by Ing. Bertil Kuhlemann.

RYMD skepp I KINA (Spaceships in China)

This section discusses reports of extraterrestrial visitations and ancient mysteries related to China. Professor Tsum-um-Nui's 1965 study, 'Spaceships for 12,000 Years Ago,' is highlighted. In 1940, in caves in the Baian-Kara-Ula region bordering China and Tibet, stone tablets resembling modern saucers were discovered. These were found near graves of a small, dwarf-like race called the Dropa and Kham, who lived around 12,000 years ago. Their civilization left traces distinct from other ancient peoples. Ancient Chinese legends also speak of small, yellow-skinned beings with large heads and small bodies descending from the sky, who were eventually killed by 'warriors on fast horses' (believed to be Mongols). The skeletons found in Baian-Kara-Ula have been dated to approximately 12,000 years old. Professor Tsum-um-Nui refutes the theory that these were apes, pointing to evidence of burial ceremonies and the creation of stone artifacts. The 716 stone discs found in the caves are described as having a central hole and spiral grooves, resembling phonograph records. Researchers at Peking University are studying these findings.

RAPPORT nytt (Report News)

Gräsvirvlar efter UFO (Grass Circles after UFO)

On April 3, 1972, at 11:15 PM, a Mrs. I.E. in Averby, near Hjortkvarn, observed a star-like phenomenon descending over a forest edge. It hovered about 1-2 meters above the ground for approximately five minutes before ascending and moving towards Örebro. The following day, UFO-Örebro members investigated the site and found grass pressed down in circular patterns, about 14 meters in diameter. The grass in the outer circle was pressed counter-clockwise, and in the inner circle, clockwise. A dead shrew found nearby is not believed to be related. The phenomenon was reportedly seen again by Mrs. I.E. at 1:00 AM on April 23rd, appearing larger than the planet Venus and glowing orange.

REAKTION PÅ BILLJUS? (Reaction to Car Lights?)

The phenomenon initially appeared as a lamp with a reddish glow, moving towards the E. family's house. When car headlights illuminated the area, the object ascended rapidly like a bouncing ball before returning to its original height once the car passed.

SÄNKTE SIG ÅTER (Descended Again)

After the car passed, the object descended to 1-2 meters above the ground and moved towards power lines, then accelerated and disappeared towards Örebro.

VIRVLAR I GRÄSET (Whirlwinds in the Grass)

At the intersection of power lines and an old railway (Point A on the map), members of UFO-Örebro found evidence of the observed phenomenon: grass pressed into whirls in an oval area approximately 14 meters in diameter.

FENOMENET ÅTERKOM! (The Phenomenon Returned!)

Mrs. I.E. reported that the phenomenon reappeared at 1:00 AM on April 23rd. It was significantly larger than Venus and hovered for about 10 minutes, moving in a more northerly direction than the previous sighting. It was described as orange-glowing.

UFO-Barometern (UFO-Barometer)

This section presents statistics from newspaper clippings compiled by UFO-Örebro, covering the period from February 16 to April 16, 1972. The graph shows the number of reported UFO sightings per day, with peaks in late February and mid-March.

Flygande tefat skrämde Haparandabo (Flying Saucer Scared Haparanda Resident)

This article recounts an interview by Duff Deutgen with Kurt-Ove Wiik from Haparanda, who claims to have been 'attacked' by a flying saucer on April 7, 1972. Wiik, initially skeptical of UFO stories, describes seeing a rapidly growing red oval light that approached him directly. The object stopped about 400 meters away, hovering at treetop height for 10-15 minutes. His wife, Seija, and her mother also witnessed the event. Wiik described the object as a classic saucer shape, dark on top with a row of dark points, and intensely red on the bottom, with light shining directly onto the ground. Seija confirmed it was not a helicopter or airplane. The following day, Kurt-Ove Wiik found no traces on the ground. He also heard that a woman nearby claimed to have seen small beings.

Science fiction på TV - verklighet utanför fönstret? (Science Fiction on TV - Reality Outside the Window?)

On April 22, 1972, TV-2 broadcast the science fiction film 'Forbidden World'. Coincidentally, people across Sweden reported seeing unusual aerial phenomena, particularly in southern and central Sweden. Observations included a spinning red sphere moving from southeast to west, a bright blue or green glow, and a strong, bright, luminous sphere or cone-shaped object moving horizontally at high speed towards Nässjö. In Nässjö, Ester and Enok Andersson observed an oblong, cigar-shaped object passing rapidly between the water tower and the TV transmitter mast. The transmitter station reported no interference. Other witnesses in Nässjö described a 'sphere with a point downwards' moving slowly from south to north. Similar phenomena were reported in Eskilstuna, Grythyttan, Örebro, and Tiveden, described as glowing objects or fireballs.

HAMBURGSUND

In Hamburgsund, Sonja and Thure Hansson observed two objects. The first was oval and emitted a phosphorescent glow, disappearing after a turn. The second, appearing a few minutes later, resembled a mushroom with its flat side forward, followed by a long 'tail,' moving westward.

Mokkfjärd, Dalarna

Henning and Ester Dahl reported seeing an object resembling an upside-down plate, according to Borlänge Tidning. The object ascended over Altberget, passed over their location, and disappeared westward. It moved horizontally, not in a falling trajectory like a meteor.

Meteorer? Tefat? (Meteors? Saucers?)

The article questions whether these sightings are meteors or UFOs, dismissing the suggestion by Tage Eriksson of FOA to contact Claes Olsson (who sells hot air balloons) for explanations, questioning if a hot air balloon could move that fast.

HABO DEN 24/2 1972

Klara Jansson and Conny Larsson observed a dark disc, the size of a full moon, surrounded by a yellowish-white light, moving rapidly from northwest to southeast at 6:45 PM.

HALLSTAHAMMAR DEN 22/12 1971

Sigvard Lindh reported hearing a hissing sound and then seeing a large, black object in the air with a faint light around it, moving slowly from west to east.

Har månen tillhört Jupiter? (Did the Moon Belong to Jupiter?)

This section, authored by Florent Sickenga, explores the theory that the Moon may have once been one of Jupiter's moons. Evidence from lunar material suggests the Moon is very old (4.6-4.7 billion years). The theory that the Moon formed from material ejected from Earth is deemed unlikely. Instead, it is proposed that the Moon was subjected to intense bombardment in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter for 500 million to 1 billion years. It is suggested that the Moon was once a moon of Jupiter, but its orbit was altered by solar gravity, eventually leading to it being captured by Earth's gravitational field. This 'swing-by' maneuver is compared to methods used to send probes to Pluto.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently reports on UFO sightings across Sweden, often linking them to specific dates and locations. It also explores ancient mysteries and speculative scientific theories, such as the origin of the Moon. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, presenting witness accounts and scientific discussions without definitive conclusions, often posing questions to the reader. The organization UFO-Sverige is presented as a central body for collecting and disseminating information on these topics.

This issue of UFO-Aktuellt, dated October 1971, features a prominent cover story titled "Professor Todeschinis kosmogoni revolutionerat nytänkande" (Professor Todeschini's Cosmogony Revolutionizes Thinking). The magazine delves into the scientific and philosophical ideas of Professor Marco Todeschini, alongside numerous UFO reports from around the world.

Professor Todeschini's Revolutionary Ideas

The lead article introduces the 72-year-old Italian physics professor, Marco Todeschini, renowned in the European scientific community for his revolutionary theories on the laws governing the material world. His work, which has earned him several honorary doctorates and scientific awards, is described as a synthesis of laws governing matter from the atomic to the stellar level, and the different forms of vibratory energy. His theory, termed "psychobiophysics," explores the relationships between physical, biological, and psychological phenomena.

Todeschini's work suggests that the universe is not a void but a dynamic, fluid substance with a density millions of times less than water. He proposes that universal movements describe a vortex around the Earth and the sun, explaining phenomena like stellar aberration, as observed by Bradley and later by Michelson and Miller. He believes this concept of a universe filled with thin, fluid matter can explain hitherto inexplicable physical and subjective phenomena, such as feelings of strength, electricity, light, heat, and smell.

He argues that matter, gravity, inertia, centrifugal force, electricity, magnetism, sleep, smell, taste, atomic phenomena, and chemical/astronomical reactions are all different expressions of the same thing: the movements of the "fluid" universe. This allows him to unite various scientific disciplines under the umbrella of "space dynamics," giving it the same importance as universal mechanics.

The Human Condition: Total Physical Darkness

Todeschini's calculations simplify mathematical expressions by reducing various scientific branches into a few clearly defined space-dynamic movements. He suggests that spherical vortex movements create core systems, atomic, molecular, and astronomical systems with their gravitational fields. When these vibratory movements reach our senses, they evoke subjective sensations of strength, electricity, light, heat, sleep, smell, and taste.

He asserts that these sensations are not part of the objective physical world but are aspects of it that appear in our psyche. Consequently, he concludes that we live in a "totally dark world" devoid of color, sound, heat, smell, taste, strength, magnetism, and electricity. This world is "activated" only by the constant movements of the universe's "fluid" mass, which resonate with our sensory organs, creating electrical impulses that travel to the brain, where our psyche experiences distinct sensations.

Sensory Organs as Transmitters

For every physical phenomenon, Todeschini argues, there is a corresponding psychological one. Sound, for example, is an objective physical phenomenon when considered as an atmospheric wave, but it becomes a subjective-biological phenomenon when translated into electrical impulses along the auditory nerve. Finally, it becomes a psychological (spiritual) phenomenon when processed by our mind.

Using Kundt's apparatus and an oscillograph, scientists can measure atmospheric sound waves and the electrical currents in the auditory nerve, thus experimentally verifying the coordination of biopsychophysical phenomena. Todeschini has reconstructed the electrical circuits of our sensory organs, viewing them as transmitters driven by the body's electrical currents. The sense of sight functions as a complex reception-transmission apparatus, while hearing, touch, smell, and taste act as transformers of mechanical impulses into electrical currents that are then "telegraphed" to the psyche.

He further explains that nerve pathways are electrical conductors, and neurons act as batteries that amplify weak electrical currents. The gray matter of the spinal cord functions as a general electrical central, producing power for all organs and circuits. The brain serves as the central headquarters, housing all reception points for electrical impulses from the body's periphery, including those that control movement and the distribution of chemical substances.

Immaterial Perceptions

Crucially, Todeschini asserts that our perceptions are immaterial and arise solely within our psyche, not in the objective physical world or the human body. The psyche, therefore, is also immaterial, occupying no volume and lacking length, breadth, or height.

UFO Sightings and Cases

Calf Disappears in Brazil

A report from Southern Brazil describes an incident in October 1970 where a calf was lifted into the air and disappeared. The event was witnessed by two men and caused distress among the livestock.

Millions Witness UFOs in Brazil

On December 19, 1971, millions of people in the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul reportedly witnessed UFOs. While detailed descriptions are scarce, one specific observation from February 8, 1971, in Gravatai is detailed.

Armada of UFOs Over Gravatai

Victor Soares, a UFO investigator, observed a red light and later a large "armada" of approximately twenty oval, silver-white UFOs with blue tones flying in a perfect rectangular formation. The formation maintained a horizontal line at an estimated altitude of 10-20 kilometers, moving at speeds between 150 and 250 km/h. The precise formation and movement ruled out natural phenomena, suggesting intelligent control.

Calf Vanishes in Brazil Sky

Another incident from Brazil in October 1970 recounts a calf being lifted into the air and disappearing over a ranch, witnessed by two men.

The Fourth Dimension and UFOs

This section discusses the concept of "light centers" that allegedly transmit messages from UFO controllers. It suggests that UFOs do not originate from our third dimension but from higher, distinct planes of existence. Earth is described as the lowest and densest planet in the solar system, on a path to return to a higher plane, the fourth dimension, and eventually pure consciousness. The article notes the significant amount of material being produced by organizations like Universal Foundation, Universal Link, and Nya Tids-centra, urging readers to consider these perspectives.

UFO Over Askøy, Norway

On March 8, 1972, seven police officers and numerous other witnesses observed a spherical red light moving and changing course over Askøy, Norway. The object appeared to have a disc-like shape within the sphere and was seen through a large telescope.

Giant UFO Observed from Herøysund, Norway

On February 10-11, 1972, UFO activity was reported over Stord, Norway. On the first night, a luminous object resembling a star moved south and then west. The following night, a similar object appeared, followed by a large, dark object resembling a Zeppelin and four smaller luminous objects. The formation moved north and then south before disappearing.

New Zealand Radar Case Visually Confirmed

On September 4, 1969, Captain R. Cullum and First Officer Faircloth of a Bristol Freighter flying from Wellington to Blenheim, New Zealand, observed a pulsating blue light. The object was also detected by Wellington radar. The UFO moved slowly at an estimated 50-60 knots. The report was later confirmed by Captain Cullum, who stated that the observation was also of interest to the Royal New Zealand Air Force.

UFO-Groups, Attention!

This section announces plans to publish a special "EXTRA ISSUE" containing current UFO press clippings and seeks a UFO group to undertake this task.

Message: UFO-Södertälje

UFO-Södertälje has become UFO-Sweden's PR section and is now designated as UFO-Sweden's Information Central.

My Encounters with Extraterrestrials [2]

This section continues a narrative about encounters with extraterrestrials. The narrator speaks with a Spanish man, Alberto Sanmartin, who received a stone with strange symbols from an alien. The stone, measuring 12x4x2 cm, was analyzed and found to contain only known substances, with the symbols appearing to be in relief rather than inscribed.

The alien reveals that their concept of time differs from humans' and that they have visited Earth multiple times since their first visit during the time of Kaiser Maximilian. Their mission is to maintain order and security among ten planets in their system, including Earth, which is currently not following their guidelines due to its inhabitants' lack of understanding and acceptance of their rules, stemming from hate.

The alien explains that if humanity initiates a nuclear war, almost all humans will perish, except for those deemed worthy who will be evacuated to a more hospitable planet. The end of humanity, if it occurs, will be swift, within minutes. The alien states that the narrator's mission is complete and that the stone is now in his possession. The alien also reveals that Earth is in a "very critical" situation.

When asked about the stone, the alien states they know "everything" about it and that it was given to the narrator by someone "sent, like me." The reason for choosing the narrator is his "lack of pretension," despite others considering him arrogant. The alien defines this as acknowledging higher civilizations and placing them above earthly beings.

The stone is described as holding the "secret of the ego's relationship to time and space." The alien cannot predict if the narrator will discover this secret but states that Earth is in a "very critical" situation. The alien departs, stating they will return to their world today and that their mission on Earth is concluded.

When asked if he will be among those saved if humanity perishes, the alien replies "No," because he will have fulfilled his task.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently explores the intersection of science, spirituality, and the unexplained. It presents Todeschini's theories as a bridge between scientific understanding and subjective experience, suggesting a unified view of the universe. The numerous UFO reports, ranging from mass sightings to detailed pilot observations, underscore a belief in the reality of unidentified aerial phenomena and potential extraterrestrial contact. The narrative about the alien encounter and the mysterious stone introduces a spiritual or philosophical dimension, emphasizing themes of cosmic order, human responsibility, and the potential for spiritual evolution. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, presenting diverse perspectives and encouraging readers to consider unconventional ideas about the universe and humanity's place within it.

This document is an excerpt from issues 183-184 of the German magazine UFO-NACHRICHTEN, published in November and December 1971. It was edited and translated into Swedish by U. Thellström. The content focuses on a personal encounter with a woman believed to be of extraterrestrial origin and includes prophecies about humanity's future.

The Encounter

The author recounts an unexpected meeting with a woman who disappeared shortly after. He regrets not being able to ask more questions, noting the improvisational nature of their conversation. The woman's response to the question, "How do you know who does not deserve to be saved to another planet?" was "Hatred reflects itself in the soul." The author interprets this to mean she could perceive souls and their states, similar to how one can read emotions in a person's eyes, and highlights the advanced telepathic abilities of extraterrestrial visitors.

The author acknowledges that he cannot definitively prove the woman's extraterrestrial origin, as his name and image had appeared in newspapers, and he had been photographed with the mysterious stone. However, he is personally convinced of her origin due to her confidence, knowledge, and composed demeanor, which he believes indicate a being from a civilization millions of years old, possessing superior intelligence and morality. He asserts that such an encounter would naturally lead to submission to the superior being.

A significant detail is that this encounter occurred exactly three years after the author received a stone near Madrid.

Two Paths for Humanity

The article presents two possible futures for humanity, as conveyed by the woman:

1. Salvation: A path leading to a world free from hate, selfishness, and war, where humanity receives help from extraterrestrial intelligences to overcome global problems. These beings would become friends and leaders.
2. Destruction: A path leading to ruin, hate, and war, culminating in humanity's demise. However, those who fought for a better world would be saved to a more hospitable planet while Earth is destroyed.

The woman is described as a beautiful, foreign woman with golden hair and eyes filled with a depth like a starless sky.
