  • Liquidation of the Ufo Investigators
    CHAPTER 3 THE SPACE INTELLIGENCES SPEAK - TED OWENS – 1972 Suppose a man came to you and said that an earthquake would strike the California coast in a few days, and the very next day, a big earthquake on the California coast is reported in all the papers. Then the man comes to you again and says that in two weeks time, on Halloween, he will try to cause a UFO to be seen and reported in the newspapers. And sure enough, on Halloween night, a UFO is seen by numerous persons in Camden, N.J., headed for Philadelphia (where the man making these predictions then lived). It is written up in the newspapers, just as the man said it would be. The same man comes to you and says that in the days ahead, an early hurricane will appear off Florida. Five days later, a hurricane (Alma) appears, and hits Florida - the earliest hurricane in history to do so. When Hurricane Inez is born, this man comes to you and tells you that, contrary to what the Weather Bureau says, Inez will turn right at Cuba and go to the US. It does. Then, contrary to what the Weather Bureau says, the man says the hurricane will back up and take the same track Hurricane Betsy took last year, which Inez does. The man comes to you and says that in the near future, President Johnson will have a breakdown in health. Within 120 days, an unexpected public announcement is made that Johnson will need to have surgery. This same fellow then says that an attack on our warships in Vietnam is imminent.

  • George Adamski
    George Adamski George Adamski (17 April 1891 – 23 April 1965) was a Polish American George Adamski citizen and author who became widely known in ufology circles, and to some degree in popular culture, after he claimed to have photographed spaceships from other planets, met with friendly Nordic alien Space Brothers, and to have taken flights with them to the Moon and other planets.[2] He was the first, and most famous, of the so-called contactees of the 1950s. Adamski called himself a "philosopher, teacher, student and saucer researcher", although most investigators concluded his claims were an elaborate hoax, and that Adamski himself was a con artist.[3] Adamski authored three books describing his meetings with Nordic aliens and his travels with them aboard their spaceships: Flying Saucers Have Landed (co- written with Desmond Leslie) in 1953, Inside the Space Ships in 1955, and Flying Saucers Farewell in 1961. The first two books were both bestsellers; by Born 17 April 1891 1960 they had sold a combined 200,000 copies.[4] Bromberg, German Empire Died 23 April 1965 Contents (aged 74) Early years Silver Spring, Ufology Maryland, U.S. Orthon and the Contactees Resting Arlington National Straith Letter Hoax place Cemetery Meeting with Queen Juliana of the Netherlands Occupation Self-described Later life "wandering Death teacher",[1] ufologist Investigations and criticism Organization Royal Order of Tibet Adamski photographs and Moseley investigation Air Force investigation George Adamski Foundation In popular culture Known for Contactee Books Other publications See also Notes References Further reading External links Early years Adamski was born in Bromberg in the Kingdom of Prussia, German Empire.

My guest is Dr. Jason Jorjani, who is on the faculty in philosophy at the New Jersey Institute of Technology. He is also author of a very significant book, Prometheus and Atlas, which is the winner of the 2016 Book Award from the ​ Parapsychological Association. Welcome, Jason. (00:53) JRJ: I’m especially looking forward to this discussion, Jeffrey. ​ ​ (00:55) JM: This will be most interesting. I’m looking forward to it as well. I think ​ ​ many of our viewers will understand our reference to The PK Man as I’ve done ​ ​ three interviews on this subject earlier, based on my book, The PK Man.

Hermes is the trickster and thief in the Olympian pantheon. He is the courier of Zeus, who transmits messages from Olympus to humanity. But he’s also a joker figure who sort of confuses, deceives and misleads with those messages.

  • The Extraterrestrial Contact Movement a Bibliography
    UFOs and the Extraterrestrial Contact Movement a bibliography Volume Two: The Extraterrestrial Contact Movement b y GEORGE M. EBERHART The Scarecrow Press, Inc. Metuchen, N.J., & London 1386 Copyright *>1986 by George M. Eberhart Manufactured in the United States of America VOLUME TWO: THE EXTRATERRESTRIAL CONTACT MOVEMENT 131- CONTACTEES BEFORE 1952 The term "contactee" originally referred to a small group of individuals who in the 1950s claimed a direct contact with the space people that piloted the flying saucers- These contacts usually contained many psychic elements (telepathy, psychokinesis, dematerializations) as well as a religious or an ethical message. However, for at least 200 years before George Adamski's first contact in 1952, various people have claimed contact with extraterrestrials and their accounts bear a strong resemblance to the later saucer contactees. While spacecraft are present or at least implied in most of the accounts af­ ter 1952, they are not integral to the contact because communication with * the aliens is usually by telepathy. Before 1952 UFOs are almost completely absent, with visits to or from other planets accomplished through an out-of­ body experience- Most of these early accounts confined their contacts to beings from Mars (11028, 11036, 11083-84), with only a few from Venus (11020) or other remote, nameless worlds (10024). One of the first writers to claim an extraterrestrial contact was the Swedish mystic Emanuel Swedenborg (11075-77), who described his "astral journeys" to each of the planets known in the mid-18th century- Also includ­ ed in this chapter are the works of theosophists H.P.

  • Flying Saucers and Multiple Realities: a Case Study in Phenomenological Theory
    Flying Saucers and Multiple Realities: A Case Study in Phenomenological Theory By David Stupple and Abdollah Dashti his essay describes a study ofthe Saucerian Press, a small mail order firm that publishes and sells books to hobbyists interested in flying Tsaucers. The study is part of a series of research projects designed to trace the social history of the flying saucer movement. The Saucerian Press is of particular interest because (1) it has been responsible for the elaboration of folkore’ about flying saucers, and (2) it functions as a clearing house of information for flying saucer hobbyists. The heroes of flying saucer tales are the contactees-the men and women who have claimed contact with extra-terrestrials.First appearing in 1952, they created a sensation in the American psychic community through their tales of adventure with space people. By 1958 popular interest in the contactees had declined and the movement took a religious turn: small cults developed around certain contactees and a network of magazines and newspapers provided mechanisms for the transmission of the developing folklore. One contributor to this folklore is Gray Barker, a former high school English teacher who became interested in flying saucers while reporting a monster scare story for Fate magazine. In 1956 Barker published They Knew Too Much About Flying Saucers, a landmark book that introduced the legend of the three Men-In-Black, sinister figures who dress in black, drive black Cadillacs, and harass UFO witnesses who get too close to THE TRUTH.2 In 1959 Barker established the Saucerian Press and began publishing literature that elaborated the “MIB” legend and the idea that flying saucers come from inside the Earth.
