Magazine Overview

Title: UFO-nytt
Issue: Nr.4 1998 (Jubilee Issue)
Publisher: NETI (Norwegian organisation for the study of ExtraTerrestrial Intelligence)
Date: December 1998

This issue of UFO-nytt, the membership magazine for NETI, focuses on extraterrestrial encounters and related phenomena. The cover prominently features an interview with Johan Atle Lein, who claims to be "one of the star people." Other featured articles include experiences of Kate Thorvaldsen, testimony from Colonel Philip Corso, and reports on UFO sightings worldwide.

Interview with Johan Atle Lein

The main feature is an interview with Johan Atle Lein, who previously appeared in the Norwegian newspaper VG. Lein, a 56-year-old man from Trøndelag, recounts his experiences of being abducted by UFOs. He states that his job now is to travel and share his story, emphasizing that "Hollywood films about UFOs threatening Earth are just scare tactics." He believes extraterrestrials are benevolent and here to help humanity's development. Lein claims his first abduction occurred on March 10, 1992, when he was taken aboard a craft by three beings described as "grey-brown-green" and not entirely physical, with their eyes being particularly captivating. He also mentions a second abduction in late March 1993. Lein asserts that he is "one of the star people" and that the "star fleet" has been around Earth for thousands of years, with him having had previous lives on Earth.

Lein discusses the concept of dimensions, explaining that humans exist in the 3rd dimension, move to the 4th dimension after death (where many are reincarnated), and eventually to the 5th dimension. He suggests that contact with extraterrestrials might occur as early as 1999.

Kate Thorvaldsen's Experiences

This section details the experiences of Kate Thorvaldsen, who as a child of 10, felt a longing and began drawing strange faces. As an adult, she received complex, intricate images of molecular structures, which she interpreted as representing the universe's construction. These images and messages would appear spontaneously. Experts found the patterns too complex to reconstruct even with advanced computer processing. Later, under hypnosis, it was revealed that she had been taken aboard a craft and informed that she had a mission to write a book about these images. In 1996, while at a cabin on Golsfjellet to write her book, she woke up with a swollen eye and discharge, suspecting a physical examination by aliens. This experience also coincided with her sense of smell, which had been absent since childhood, partially returning.

Dora Odinsdatter's Account

Dora Odinsdatter shares her personal experiences, including nightly "manipulations" that left visible marks, described as dark blue or black ink-like bruises around her eyes. She felt "beaten up" upon waking, with dreams becoming inaccessible until 1998. She also experienced visions of past, present, and future, and received telepathic instruction on physics, metaphysics, and the nature of life and death. She describes a telepathic connection with a higher consciousness. Odinsdatter also recounts an incident in 1993/1994 where she observed a silent, triangular UFO following her car for an extended period near Storfjord-Lyngen, Norway. The object matched her speed and then ascended rapidly into the sky. She initially suspected military technology but later considered it a UFO. She contacted the local police, who reported no unusual activity.

UFO Observations Around the World 1998

This section presents various UFO sightings and related events. Dr. Steven Greer presented evidence of UFOs visiting Earth, supported by Apollo 14 astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell, who expressed skepticism initially but now believes the evidence warrants scientific consideration. A former cryptologist from the Pentagon reported seeing a crashed alien craft and ET writing, and stated that the President was briefed on UFO matters. Commander Graham Bethune encountered a 100-meter UFO in 1951, with reports of 268 similar craft. An Air Force radar operator and colleagues observed UFOs tracked by NORAD. Sergeant Chuck Sorrels reported numerous UFO encounters over Edwards Air Force Base. A witness near Loring Air Force Base saw a large triangular UFO. A US Navy employee witnessed a UFO encounter tracked by satellite and military aircraft. Donna Hare, a former photo lab technician at Johnson Space Center, claimed a NASA technician routinely retouched UFOs out of satellite images. Major George Filer detailed an incident where an alien was reportedly shot and transported for study. A world-renowned astronomer was present when an apparent extraterrestrial signal was received by SETI at Harvard. The section also mentions an intelligence officer who was prevented from revealing a disinformation plan involving "Alien Reproduction Vehicles."

Edgar Mitchell Supports UFO Truth

An article from The Sunday Times on October 11, 1998, highlights former astronaut Edgar Mitchell's support for the claim that the truth about UFOs has been concealed by US authorities for over 50 years. Mitchell, the sixth man to walk on the moon, believes that many of the thousands of UFO sightings since the 1940s are attributable to visitors from other planets, with some remaining inexplicable despite accounting for illusions and natural phenomena. He notes the existence of craft with capabilities beyond current human technology. A Time Magazine poll indicated that 22% of the US population shares Mitchell's conviction about extraterrestrial contact.

Lawsuit Regarding Deaths at Area 51

This section reports on a lawsuit filed on behalf of the families of two workers who died after exposure to toxic waste at the secret Groom Lake Base, also known as Area 51. A law professor from George Washington University is demanding to know what happened. However, an appeals court ruled that the workers and their widows are not entitled to information about hazardous materials or their handling at the base. The court also stated that the results of the federal investigation and the base's name cannot be revealed.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine consistently promotes the idea that UFOs are real and that extraterrestrial beings are visiting Earth. There is a strong emphasis on witness testimony, with personal accounts forming a significant portion of the content. The publication also touches upon government secrecy and cover-ups related to UFO phenomena. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into the UFO subject, encouraging members to share their experiences and supporting the pursuit of truth in this area. The recurring theme is the exploration of the unknown and the possibility of non-human intelligence interacting with humanity.

This issue of "UFO-nytt" from August 1998, titled "Vatikanet og utenomjordiske" (The Vatican and extraterrestrials), explores the intersection of religious belief and the possibility of alien life, alongside detailed accounts of UFO sightings and unexplained phenomena.

The Vatican and Extraterrestrials

The cover story highlights a surprising shift in the Vatican's perspective on extraterrestrial life. Pastor Corrado Balducci, a spokesperson close to the Pope, asserts in a forthcoming book that believing in aliens is not contradictory to Christian faith. He argues that the existence of extraterrestrials can no longer be denied due to ample evidence. Balducci cites a passage from the New Testament where Jesus is referred to as the king of the universe, suggesting that "In my Father's house are many rooms," implying that everything in the universe, including extraterrestrials and UFOs, is united with God. The article notes that such statements, if made a decade prior, would have been publicly disavowed by the Catholic Church. Instead, the Church appears to be opening a dialogue, inviting discussion among its followers. The piece also speculates whether a recent meeting at the White House involving religious leaders was a prelude to an official announcement about the discovery of extraterrestrial life, with a potential five-year window for the clergy to prepare congregations.

CSETI's Work for Truth

The magazine discusses the efforts of organizations like CSETI (Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence) in the USA, which are striving to reveal information about UFOs that is allegedly being kept from democratic control. The article emphasizes that the truth about UFOs concerns the entire population, impacting peace, the future, and humanity's place in the cosmos. It quotes Shari Adamiak, a close associate of UFO investigator Steven Greer, who tragically died of skin cancer, believed to be caused by external radiation. Adamiak, who participated in Greer's attempts to contact alien spacecraft, spoke of the existence of numerous intelligent civilizations in the universe, referring to them as "brothers." She described experiences of absolute fellowship and friendliness during contact attempts, underscoring a shared intelligence and consciousness.

UFO Landing in Sri Lanka

A significant portion of the issue is dedicated to a UFO sighting in Sri Lanka on April 30, 1998. Tharuka Disanaike and Michelle Henricus report on an incident where a large, disk-shaped object with legs landed in the playground of Adikaram Barneskole in Bandarawela. Two young boys, Indika and Harsha, witnessed the object. Indika described a low, sharp sound followed by the sight of a large, disk-shaped object with landing gear. He saw it take off at immense speed, performing a turn before vanishing into the sky. Harsha, a 10-year-old, also saw the object and lights, describing it as approximately 2.5 meters in diameter and slightly over 2 meters high, emitting a faint humming sound during takeoff. He estimated its size and height. The boys claim to frequently see flying objects, which they call "KORKA" (stork), often cigar-shaped with fins. The landing left large, flower-patterned imprints in the sand, though most were washed away before they could be properly documented. Other witnesses in Bandarawela, including doctors, reported seeing strange phenomena in the sky. A 16-year-old student, Sheran de Silva, described a large, shadowy disk descending with an intense yellow light beam. A local doctor and his wife also observed strange, laser-like lights. The police attributed the sightings to military activity, but UFO investigators are looking into the event.

Personal Reflections on UFOs

Kjell Arne Høviskeland, Secretary and Treasurer of NETI, shares his personal thoughts and opinions on the UFO phenomenon in the second part of his article. He reiterates his mission to inform people in Norway about the existence of UFOs and extraterrestrial beings, urging for more public awareness and media coverage. Høviskeland believes that extraterrestrials are not demons, but beings of love who come with a message of peace and a warning against self-destruction through war. He suggests they are reporting back to their home planet about humanity's actions. He also mentions an interview with Johan Atle Lein and Kate Thorvaldsen's experiences with UFOs.

The Rendlesham Forest Incident

The magazine provides an in-depth look at the unexplained events in Rendlesham Forest, Suffolk, England, on December 27-28, 1980. The article details testimonies from over fifty military and civilian witnesses. It includes a memo from Deputy Base Commander Charles Halt of the USAF, describing the sighting of unusual lights and a strange glowing object. The object was described as metallic, triangular, about two to three meters across the base and two meters high, illuminating the forest with a white light, and featuring pulsing red and blue lights. It maneuvered through the trees and disappeared. The following day, three depressions, 1.5 inches deep, were found where the object had been. Later that night, a red sun-like light was seen, which pulsed, broke into smaller objects, and disappeared, followed by three star-like objects in the sky. The article also includes a transcript of a radio recording of Halt and other personnel investigating the lights, describing a pulsing red ball-like object that moved erratically and beamed light. The incident is compared to the Roswell event, noting the presence of military installations and top-secret defense facilities in the area. Possible explanations involving lighthouses, buoys, and military exercises are discussed, but the article concludes by questioning whether these natural phenomena could truly account for the experiences of the military personnel involved.

UFO Observations Around the World

Several brief reports detail UFO sightings from various locations in 1998:

  • England (July 18): A triangular, silver-colored object was observed flying at high speed near Wolverhampton.
  • Chile (May 16): Over 30 people witnessed a large, disk-shaped UFO with orange and small lights hovering over the Lago de Colbun hydroelectric plant.

  • Australia (April 19): Fighter jets were seen pursuing a UFO near Grafton.
  • England (August 18): A boomerang-shaped, triangular UFO was observed flying at high speed near Somerset.

Other Mentions

  • Colonel Philip J. Corso: The article notes the death of Colonel Philip J. Corso, author of "The Day After Roswell," who claimed to have seen extraterrestrial beings and handled alien technology. He died shortly after signing an affidavit for CAUS.
  • James Lovell: A quote attributed to James Lovell from Apollo 8 on December 24, 1968, "Let me inform you that Santa Claus exists!" is used as a title for an article about observations of mysterious lights during the Christmas season.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the potential acceptance of extraterrestrial life by religious institutions, the ongoing debate about government secrecy surrounding UFO phenomena, and the detailed reporting of numerous contemporary UFO sightings. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry, presenting evidence and witness accounts without outright dismissal, while also acknowledging skepticism and exploring various explanations. There is a clear emphasis on disseminating information and encouraging public awareness regarding UFOs and potential extraterrestrial contact.

This issue of UFOER, titled "NAZISTENES HEMMELIGE VÅPEN?" (The Nazis' Secret Weapon?), published in December 1978, delves into the mysterious phenomenon of 'Foo-Fighters' observed during World War II and explores alleged Nazi secret aircraft development, particularly focusing on flying saucers and their potential connection to occult societies and extraterrestrial influences. The magazine also includes reports on UFO sightings from later decades and discusses the findings of Project Blue Book.

Foo-Fighters of World War II

The issue begins by detailing the 'Foo-Fighters,' described as luminous spheres, approximately one foot in diameter, that appeared during WWII. These objects maneuvered around Allied and German aircraft, causing electronic disturbances. The term 'Foo-Fighters' originated from a comic strip and became associated with these mysterious aerial phenomena. Several specific sightings from December 1944 are recounted, including observations by the 415th Night Fighter Squadron. These reports describe lights that emerged from the ground, followed aircraft, and performed incredible maneuvers.

Apollo 8 and Santa Claus

A section titled "24 DESEMBER 1968: APOLLO 8 MELDER OM AT SANTA CLAUS EKSISTERER" (December 24, 1968: Apollo 8 Reports That Santa Claus Exists) highlights astronaut reports of mysterious objects following their spacecraft, dating back to John Glenn's Mercury missions. Walter Schirra reportedly used the codename 'Santa Claus' for these UFOs. The article notes that James Lovell's transmission on Apollo 8, "PLEASE BE INFORMED THAT THERE IS A SANTA CLAUS," was understood by many to have a deeper, hidden meaning related to these sightings.

Kaikoura, New Zealand Sighting

Another incident reported is from December 31, 1978, in Kaikoura, New Zealand. Witnesses, including a TV crew and an aircraft crew, observed strange lights confirmed by radar. A TV team filmed an object described as clock-shaped, with its lower part glowing more intensely than the upper part.

The Hexam, New South Wales Sighting

Under the headline "STOR SIGARFORMET UFO OG TRE MINDRE DISKER VED HEXAM, NEW SOUTH WALES. USA, DESEMBER 1984" (Large Cigar-Shaped UFO and Three Smaller Discs Near Hexam, New South Wales. USA, December 1984), a detailed account is given of an event experienced by Mr. and Mrs. L. They reported seeing a large cigar-shaped object with a bright white light at its front, moving slowly. Approximately five minutes later, three smaller disc-shaped objects, about 3-4 meters in diameter, appeared and maneuvered rapidly towards the cigar. The objects then formed a chain and moved towards Williamtown Air Force Base. Mrs. L also reported seeing a shadow resembling a head with a helmet in one of the discs.

Asheboro, North Carolina Sighting

The "Skinnende nyttårslys" (Shining New Year's Light) section describes an event on December 31, 1990, in Asheboro, North Carolina. Steve Harrel filmed a bright light falling from the sky, which he described as a ball of fire. Local authorities and a TV station could not provide an explanation. George Fawcett of the NC Mutual UFO Network suggested it was consistent with other UFO observations in the area, involving large objects seen at low altitudes with strong lights.

Project Blue Book and Nazi UFOs

A significant portion of the magazine is dedicated to "The Blue Book," the U.S. Air Force's investigation into UFOs. It states that Project Blue Book investigated 12,168 sightings between 1947 and 1969, with 701 (5.6%) remaining unidentified. The report's conclusions were that UFOs posed no threat to national security, did not indicate technological advancements beyond current science, and provided no evidence of extraterrestrial visits. However, the project faced criticism for its methods and alleged intent to cover up the UFO problem. The magazine then presents three unidentified sightings from the Blue Book files: a saucer-shaped object in Marysvelle, California (1953); a round white object observed by a USAF pilot over Guam (1956); and three round objects that emitted smoke and turned into red-orange lights in Monroe, Oregon (1966).

The article "NAZISTENES HEMMELIGE VÅPEN?" (The Nazis' Secret Weapon?) by Tharald Beck and Pål Aune explores the theory that the Third Reich developed advanced flying saucers during WWII. It discusses alleged Nazi experimental craft like the 'Haunebu' and 'Andromeda-machines,' which are compared to George Adamski's alleged scout ships from Venus. The article also touches upon secret Nazi organizations like the Vril and Thule societies, suggesting they may have had contact with beings from Aldebaran. It raises questions about how the Germans developed these craft, possibly using prisoners from concentration camps like Mauthausen, and whether the Nazis established a UFO base in Antarctica that Admiral Byrd was tasked to investigate.

Nazi Technological Advancements

Further details emerge about Nazi technological pursuits. The magazine mentions the V-2 rockets and flying bombs used by Germany. It describes advanced aircraft developed by German and foreign scientists working for the Nazis, including circular craft powered by advanced turbine engines and later, craft that utilized anti-gravity effects. These craft, some over 15 meters in diameter, could reach Mach 1 and altitudes of nearly 50,000 feet. The 'Feuerball' (fireball) is described as a spinning disc meant to disrupt Allied bombers by short-circuiting their radar and ignition systems. Larger spherical craft called 'Kugelblitz' (ball lightning) are also mentioned. Scientists like Schriever, Habermohl, and Miethe, who were later recruited by American and Soviet authorities, were involved in their development. The book "UFOS-NAZI SECRET WEAPON" by Mattern-Friedrich is cited, mentioning Victor Schauberger's work on flying saucers and his involvement with prisoners from Mauthausen.

The Haunebu Craft and Alien Contact

The development of the first circular flying craft with an anti-gravity effect, named Haunebu I, is attributed to 1944, based on research into the connection between electricity, gravity, and magnetism. These craft are compared to modern UFO observations due to their silent operation, incredible maneuvers, and speed. Later generations of these craft allegedly used a propulsion system that negated Earth's gravity by creating an electromagnetic field. The Haunebu craft are noted to be similar in size to George Adamski's alleged Venusian scout ship. The article also mentions the 'Nordische ideal-mensch' (Nordic ideal human) described by Adamski, who were tall, blonde, and blue-eyed, similar to the beings described in connection with Thule and Vril.

Secret Societies: Thule and Vril

The origins of Nazi UFO interest are linked to two organizations: Vril and Thule. Adolf Hitler's fascination with the occult is highlighted, leading him to seek knowledge for a new world order. Meetings in Vienna in 1917 involving figures like Maria Ortisch, Ludwig Wais, Karl Haushofer, Rudolf Freiherr von Sebootendorf, and Prelat Gernot are described, focusing on topics like the 'New Age,' 'The Spear Of Destiny,' and 'communication with beings from other worlds.' The Vril force is described as an invisible power from the 'Black Sun' that can illuminate the soul and be used as a propulsion source. The Thule Society, founded by von Sebootendorf, and the Vril Society were instrumental in these pursuits. The article suggests that these societies sought to establish a new world order based on ancient knowledge and possibly extraterrestrial contact.

Nazi UFO Technology and Occultism

Hitler's engagement with occult knowledge is further detailed, including his interactions with individuals like Walter Johannes Stein, who advised Winston Churchill. Stein's account of Hitler's intense reaction to 'The Spear of Destiny' is recounted. The article also touches upon Hitler's alleged psychological manipulation and 'visions' during WWI, possibly influenced by substances and hypnosis, with Dr. Edmund Forster mentioned in relation to his psychiatric treatment of Hitler. The influence of occult texts like the Necronomicon and The Book of The Law is also suggested.

The Vril Society and its Beliefs

The Vril Society is presented as centered around the concept of the 'Vril' force, an invisible energy from the 'Black Sun.' Their beliefs included the existence of a Hollow Earth with a realm called Agharti, inhabited by a race of super-beings, and Hans Horbigers' 'Welteislehre' (World Ice Theory). The Vril Society aimed to harness this force for propulsion, contrasting it with destructive forces like conventional combustion and nuclear energy. The article mentions Victor Schauberger's research into energy generation aligned with nature, drawing from Tibetan knowledge of levitation and Western science.

The UFO Crash at Jelenia Gora

A significant event discussed is a purported UFO crash in Jelenia Gora, Poland, in 1937. The article suggests this incident may have spurred the development of Nazi flying craft like the Haunebu and V-7 disc-planes. A multicolored ball of fire reportedly crashed in a field belonging to Eva Braun's family. The site was cordoned off by SS troops, and the object was transported for study. A secret meeting of nuclear physicists, including Max von Laue, Otto Hahn, and Wehrner Heisenberg, was allegedly held concerning this object. The crashed UFO was later moved to a mountain area where uranium was mined, and the Germans had established underground factories known as 'Der Riese' (The Giant).

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are the alleged development of advanced flying technology by Nazi Germany, the influence of occultism and secret societies on this development, and the possibility of extraterrestrial contact. The editorial stance appears to support the idea that the Nazis were actively researching and developing UFO-like craft, possibly with assistance from non-human sources, and that this information was suppressed or overlooked by mainstream science and historical accounts. The magazine presents these theories as plausible explanations for historical anomalies and UFO phenomena.

This issue of NETI UFO-SHOP, dated November 22, 1998, focuses on UFO-related topics, including alleged Nazi technological advancements, ancient symbolism, and the organization's activities and merchandise. The magazine is published by NETI, a Norwegian organization for the study of extraterrestrial intelligence.

Cover Story: The 1937 UFO Crash

The cover story details a purported UFO crash in 1937 in an area near Hayange, France, as indicated by a map. The article suggests that the technical knowledge gained from this crashed extraterrestrial craft, along with information from Vril group channelings by Maria Ortisch, may have enabled German engineers to develop disk-shaped aircraft, such as the Haunebu, Vril, and V7, potentially by 1939. The author, John von Helsing, posits that these advanced German technologies were later transferred to the Americans and taken to White Sands Missile Test Range in New Mexico, near Roswell. The article raises the question of whether a German Haunebu might have been the craft that crashed on Mac Brazels' property.

Symbolism: Svastika and Hakenkreuz

A section titled "SVASTIKAEN OG HAKEKORSET" (The Svastika and the Hakenkreuz) explores the ancient origins and meanings of the swastika symbol. It is described as one of humanity's oldest symbols, representing circular movement and bringing good fortune, health, and happiness. The article notes its presence in ancient Greek pottery, ancient Egypt, India, and China, and its use by Navajo Indians. The adoption of the symbol by Nazi Germany is discussed, with reference to Dr. Friedrich Krohn, a dentist and member of the Vril order, who allegedly created a reversed version of the swastika with a clockwise spin. This, according to Kabbalistic tradition, is said to awaken chaotic forces, signaling the occult nature of the Third Reich.

Nazi Germany's Occult Nature and Technology

The article delves into the occult underpinnings of Hitler and Nazi Germany, describing it as a fundamentally occultist regime that manifested in bizarre thoughts and cruel actions. It highlights the advanced weaponry developed during the interwar period and the war, suggesting a high probability that 'Foo-fighters' were developed by the Germans. However, the author expresses skepticism about the feasibility of craft like the Haunebu and Andromeda Machine progressing beyond the drawing board, citing Werner von Braun's and NASA's rocket development culminating in the Apollo 11 moon landing as evidence against the existence of actual UFOs in Nazi Germany. The possibility is raised that UFOs observed during the war might have originated from another planet, witnessing humanity's atrocities.

NETI's First Anniversary Celebration and Future Plans

Page 2 details NETI's first-anniversary celebration held on November 22, 1998, at 'The Church' in Oslo. Approximately 30 members and speakers attended. The event included presentations by Pal Aune (NETI leader), Roar Krogshus (discussing NETI's future tasks and Dr. Greer's latest news), and Odd-Gunnar Roed (from UFO-Norge), who presented findings supporting the theory of ancient alien presence. Kate Thorvaldsen shared her personal UFO experiences. The event concluded with a video screening and refreshments. Robert Lund, a board member, donated 900 kroner to NETI.

NETI's plans for 1999 are outlined, focusing on abduction cases, UFO observations worldwide and in Norway, and encouraging member contributions. A CSETI-Remote Viewing course with Dr. Greer is planned for Norway at a reasonable price. General meetings and elections will be held, and discussion groups will be initiated across Norway, starting in Oslo on January 7, 1999. The organization aims to improve its member magazine and is launching a small shop selling UFO/Alien T-shirts, books, videos, mugs, and jewelry. There are also plans to establish a UFO kiosk in Oslo, co-owned with member Tharald Beck, which will sell both regular kiosk items and UFO-related merchandise. NETI also intends to organize group tours to sites of UFO observations in Norway for research purposes.

UFO-Shop Merchandise

Page 3 showcases NETI's UFO-Shop, featuring various T-shirts with alien and UFO designs, including long-sleeved and short-sleeved options. Prices range from 239 to 359 Norwegian Kroner, with a 20% member discount already included. The merchandise is described as being made of 100% cotton, with prints that glow in the dark. An order form is provided for members to place their orders.

Organization Statutes

Pages 4 and 5 contain information regarding the renewal of membership for 1999 and the statutes of the organization NETI (Norwegian Organisation for the study of EXTRATERRESTRIAL INTELLIGENCE). The statutes detail the organization's name, address, and purpose, which includes gathering, processing, and disseminating information about extraterrestrial beings, supporting individuals facing persecution for their involvement in UFO phenomena, and working for international and universal peace. The structure of the board, general meetings, voting procedures, and amendments to the statutes are also outlined.

Advertisements

Page 6 features advertisements for "BLACKWHITE" and "PENTAGON ARMY," both offering discounts on alien/UFO-related articles to NETI members upon presentation of their membership card.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The magazine exhibits a strong interest in UFO phenomena, particularly concerning alleged advanced technology developed by Nazi Germany and the potential for extraterrestrial influence. There is a focus on occultism and symbolism associated with these topics. The editorial stance appears to be one of open inquiry into these subjects, while also promoting the NETI organization and its activities, including merchandise sales and member engagement. The magazine aims to inform its members about UFO-related news, research, and events, fostering a community around these interests.
