  • FIGU Bulletin No. 6
    FIGU-BULLETIN No. 6 October 1997 The responsibility for all forms of publication (e.g. Internet, print etc.) of the FIGU Bulletin lies entirely on "Billy" Eduard A. Meier. INFORMATION FROM AMERICA INTERNATIONAL UFO CONFERENCE 1995 REPORT FROM MESQUITE, NV USAF Colonel (ret.) Wendelle Stevens reported on the disinformation which, apparently, was being disseminated by Kal Korff. Korff became the pawn of Bill Moore, a self- proclaimed "asset" of Air Force Intelligence, who began using the then 17-year-old Korff to spread disinformation about Billy Meier's UFO sightings in Switzerland. Moore had Korff disseminate these lies because a loophole in the defamation and libel action laws prevented legal prosecution of young Korff as an adult. SPEEDING CLOUD IN SPACE As early as October 1995, the U.S. space probe "Wind" pinpointed a gigantic magnetic cloud, which is racing towards Earth at a speed of 3 million kilometers per hour. (3 million km/h = 50 000 km per minute or 833,3333 km/517.8234 miles per second). COMET IN THE SKY According to scientists, comet "Hayakutake" will pass by Earth the end of March 1996. Of course, this "will pass by Earth" must be understood as being rather relative, because they say the comet can be observed from Earth by the naked eye, without binoculars. Experts claim this cosmic vagabond is twice the size of our Moon and weighs an estimated 10 billion tons. Billy VINDICATION With regard to questions in Bulletin #3 (June '95), and Letters to the Editor, respectively comments in Bulletin #4 (August '95, pages 7-9), we submit the following letter along with a response from Billy Meier: Dear friends, The published statements and response to questions printed in FIGU Bulletin #3 are completely understandable, justified and easy to follow.

  • "Informaton on "Straight Shot" and Lt. Lee E. Hoskins" Posted by Hyman N
    "19th July 1944" Posted by W. Kommer on 12/8/2004, 10:27 am Hello, on the page "a short history of th 457th Bombardment Group..." I read 3 bombers are lost with 19th of July 1944... but only 1 crew is found in MACR from 457 BG (42-97601). Whats about the other two planes? thanks for answer Posted by craig harris on 12/8/2004, 11:35 pm, in reply to "19th July 1944 " I think you are correct. The MACR fles show only the one a/c 42-97601. So the "history" must be in error. One possibility could have been loss of two a/c in circumstances that did not trigger a MACR, namely an accident. However, I checked our accident fles and while two aircraf were lost to accidents on 23 July 1944, none are listed for 19th July. Sorry to be of so litle help. Cheers! craig harris Posted by W. Kommer on 12/9/2004, 4:59 am, in reply to "Re: 19th July 1944 "3A/C lost" Hello Craig, thanks for answer. I asked because of my search for the plane , I posted 11/27/2004. Perhaps there were really two unknown planes? In my Re. to Willard Reese I told the history. Untl now the plane and the crew are not identfed. W.

  • NAZI UFO MYTHOS an Investigation by Kevin Mcclure
    THE NAZI UFO MYTHOS An Investigation by Kevin McClure Introduction 1. Core 1 - Foo Fighters 2. Core 2 - Renato Vesco, Feuerball and Kugelblitz 3. Core 3 - Major Lusar, the saucer builders, and the test flight 4. Core 4 - W A Harbinson and Projekt Saucer 5. Core 5 - Vril, Haunebu and interplanetary travel 6. False histories 7. Unnamed Soldiers 8. Authorities from Earth and Elsewhere 9. Official comments and Intelligence 10. Mistakes and fantasies Conclusions INTRODUCTION The following is, essentially, the article published under the title ‘Phoney Warfare’ in Fortean Studies 7. Having allowed a decent interval for those who had intended to buy Fortean Studies to do so, I’m happy to have it appear on the Magonia site so that it can reach a wider – and undoubtedly discerning – audience. * * * * * * * * The relationship between the history of the paranormal, and the 'consensus' history that most of us, informed by historians and the mainstream media, agree on as real, is usually pretty distant. Forteanism could be said to lie somewhere between these two histories, in that it notes the allegedly factual, but possibly anomalous accounts recorded in the media of 'consensus' history, while often rejecting the 'consensus' explanations given for dismissing the strangeness of those events, and the rationale and reasoning adopted in doing so. Fort was lucky to live and work before the worst excesses of Ufology and the New Age appeared. His method of approaching existing, already-recorded facts with an open and wide-ranging mind would often have been thwarted by the sheer lack of facts, and the predominance of imaginary elements, in both of those disciplines.

  • Unidentified Flying Object
    Unidentified flying object An unidentified flying object (UFO) is any aerial phenomenon that cannot immediately be identified or explained. Most UFOs are identified or investigated as conventional objects or phenomena. The term is widely used for claimed observations of extraterrestrial spacecraft, and was coined as an anacronym by Project Blue Book project head Edward J. Ruppelt. Another widely used term for the phenomenon is "flying saucer." Studies and investigations have been conducted by various governments worldwide, along with private individuals and organizations. In the United States, studies began in the late 1940s and have included Project Grudge, Project Sign and Project Blue Book. The latter was ended in 1969-70 after the Condon Committee officially concluded that the subject failed to merit further study. However, an unpublicized study named the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program was funded by the U.S. government from 2007-2012, and a successor program named the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force is currently operational. Unidentified lights and flying objects have been reported in the skies for much of human history. Skeptics including various scientists, and organizations such as the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry, state that the entire topic can be explained as conventional objects or phenomena, while Ufologists suggest various unproven theories. Public polling indicates a considerable portion of the U.S. population feels that their government is withholding information on the subject.
