Much of the work contained in these fragments
is an account of early prehistory. Yet unlike the
myths it uses no sense of allegory and is obviously
intended to be treated as historical reality. This
makes it all the more remarkable becausewe find
a definite reference to a remote period of time
when the Earth was populated by the most
hideous of creatures:
"There was a time in which there was nothing
but darkness and an abyss of waters, wherein
resided most awful beings, which were produced
of a two-fold principle. Men appeared with fwo
wings, some with four and with two faces. They
had one body but rwo heads; the one of a man,
the other of a woman. They were likewise in their
several organs both male and female. Other
human figures were to be seen with the legs and
horns of goats. Some had horses' feet, others had
the limbs of a horse behind. but before were
fashioned like men, resembling hippocentaurs.
Bulls likewise bred with the heads of men and
dogs with fourfold bodies, and tails of fishes. Also
horses with the heads of dogs: men too and other
animals, with the heads and bodies of horses and
the tails of fishes." In short these were creatures
with the limbs of every other species of animal.

To any other age - to any other people, this
account would have read as no different to any of
the many myths and legends. Yet surely now on
the eve of the 21st Century we are able to see
things differently. In this era of high technological
achievementit is possibleto re-look at this account
with eyes not of incredulity but astonishment at
the reality of these dramatic lines of early history.
For are we not seeing here the description of a
technological era gone crazy?

London, said in a recent interview inThe Times

such as the Bib1e,people were living out fantastic
lifespans.This was originally explained as an error
in their counting of the years, but detailed study
of these manuscripts show this not to be the case.
A year in the Bibie is just as long as the year we
know today. Yet people of that time were living
five to nine hundred years.
Von Daniken amongst others explains this in
terms of a mdlignant aging virus that was
deliberately sent to make our days shorter. If so it
wasput therea very long time ago.
Now the mysteries of ageing are at last being
unravelled. Breakthroughs in our understanding
of degenerativeceli damage mean that we can

In fact Michael Rose, professor of evolutionary
biology at the University of California says"There
is no limit to the potential life of human beings".
He also insisted that eventually with this new
understanding people could easily live out
lifespansof four hundred years or more. On the

RLtEil
|1{lERlIt1{ll01{
Is it possiblethat the vision of 200L: A Space
Odyssey is true; that evolution was forced upon
us by alien intervention. One theory is that
evolution does occur, but in a slow and basic way
and that for the sudden appearanceof man,
genetic engineering must have taken place, It is
postulated that a monolith of some kind, perhaps
a pyramid, was put on Earth to shift ape DNA
slightlS helping to bring about the evolution of
man. Or it could be that aliens abducted ape
creatures and directly manipulated their DNA, to
create'instant' humans.
Again this might sound like a wild theory, until
you consider the fact that sudden shifts in species
are known to occur, though there is no
explanation of why this happens.
Darwin's theory of evolution states that
organisms produce offspring which are slightly
different to their parents. Natural selection
favours the survival (and hence breeding) of
individuals whose improved features (such as
better eyes,or sharper teeth), enable them to
survive. So by chance mutation, Darwin believed
that creatures gradually improved at random and
were then preserved,by being more fit for
survival. It sounds convincing, but may not be
the full story.
Although experiments show that changes can
occur, these are usually within a species, a form of
micro-evolution. So a fruit fly may change in
hundreds of ways. from generation to generation,
in terms of wing shape,eye colour and so on -
but no matter how it mutates, it is still a fruit fly.
Darwin thought that speciescould gradually
change into new species,but this doesn't seem to
be the case. The fossil record should show many
slight gradations betlveen old species and new
'When
ones, but this isn't so. Darwin observed this
he said it was, "the gravest objection to my
theory". He assumedthat better researchwould
reveal more fossils, but today, that still hasn't
happened. According to the evidence,something
forces speciesto shift suddenly from one form to
another. It could be possibletherefore that life
developed on Earth but that something - perhaps
aliens - continually shifted its development to
more advanced forms.
In many ways, this seems plausible, because the
idea of gradual evolution is quite ridiculous. How
could it be for instance, that we could develop
eyes in gradual stages.Half an eye, or part of a
feather, is useless;only the complete forms are
worthwhile. This being so, why would natural
selection preservetransitional organs?It wouldn't.
It should also be noted that the fossil record
shows no evidence of transitional forms, where
organsare graduallychanging.

F05$lL
EtlIIE1'lIE
The fossil record shows that species do not appear
gradually, but appear fully formed, as though their
development has.beenguided or engineered.
About 550 million years ago, during the Cambrian
era, a wide variety of complex life forms appeared
at once. So dramatic was this change that it is
referred to as the Cambrian Explosion. These
complex life forms (jellyfish, trilobites and
molluscs) do not appear to have ancestral species;
it is as though they came from nowhere. This
suggeststhat something took rhe basic DNA of
Earth and manufactuted new soecies.
This isn't the sort of evolution they teach you at
school and flaws in the Darwinist theory are
generally kept quiet, but there is no avoiding this
issue. Although the idea of alien intervention may
seem extreme, science itself has no full explanation
for the sudden shifts in evolution.
Perhaps the most dramatic appearance of a new
species,was man. Although we often see charts
showing man evolving from ape, through various
stagesof hominid to modern man, these are a
myth. Despite extensive research, there remains a
missing link between man and earlier species.
Evolutionists believe that the missing link will be
found and that we will discover fossils showing a
type of speciesconnecting Man ancestrally to
earlier species. Unfortunately for them, this may
not be the case.As some researchers have pointed
out, there isn't so much a missing link, as a
whole missing chain.
Although Man has obvious similarities to other
creatures such as monkeys, the dramatic
developments which happened in a very short time
are unlikely to have happened by chance. The size
of our brain, which makes us capable of complex
thought, is unnecessary for simple survival. The
excessof brain power which gives us potential
beyond our basic needs, is puzzhng. Ifyou study
the fossil record, it looks as though somebody
took basic ape DNA and created man. This may be
disturbing, but it fits in with the facts. Otherwise,
why have we stopped evolving? If evolution really
does occur as the Darwinists say, why hasn't
modern man evolved again? How could it be that
all these changes could take place, and then stop?
REt|ELflIIOII
$
One possibility is that man evolved elsewhere, in a
way that we cannot understand, because it is
different to the way life operates on Earth. It is
possible that we were either seeded from Mars, or
that ancient civilisations travelled here directly in
escapeships, losing their technology on crash
landing. Perhaps more likely is the idea that the
aliens have nurtured and engineered life for
thousands of years. If, as some people suggest,
they can travel through time, they could
potentially skip through history, coaxing the entire
evolution of our world within their own life soans.

moving the experiment up a stage.As abductions
escalate to astonishing numbers, they could be
preparing to shift our evolution again.
If this is true, there may never be a moment of

they keep quiet on instruction, to allow for
man's full development. Or it could be that the

evolution isn't all bad. Abductions appear to be

e often take for granted the
fact that our speciesrose from
virtual obscurity to one
capable of astonishing feats,
but what was the impetus that
hastened this progress? rWasit
purely from our own ingenuity or were we
influenced, prodded and encouraged along a
specific line of development? And if so, by who
and for what reason?
These are important questions because they
address the very essenceof who we are and where
we came from. The fact is that for well over a
hundred thousand years Man is supposed to have
existed as little more than a creature barely able to
satisfy his daily living requirements. Then suddenly
out of the blue civilisation arises. Even more
surprising is the complete lack of any evolutionary
processof development leading up to this
explosion of culture. In fact wherever we see the
emergence of civilisation it occurs with
bewildering rapidity as if arriving fully fledged
from some unidentified source.

they even attempt to attribute these
accomplishments to their own skill and prowess.
In Mesopotamia the Babylonians believed this
influence to have come from the sea. To them a
personage called Oannes was responsible for all
their learning and culture. From fragments of a
Babylonian historian named Berossus we find
the following description contained in Robert
Temple's bookThe Sirius Mystery: "This being
in the day-time used to converse with men; but
took no food at that season; he gave them an
insight into letters and sciences, and every kind
of art. He taught them to construct houses, to
found temples, to compile laws and explained to
them the principles of geometrical knowledge.
He made them distinguish the seeds of the
Earth, and showed them to collect fruits; in
short he instructed them in every thing which
could tend to soften manners and humanise
Mankind. From that time so universal were his
instructions, nothing has been added by way of
improvement. !7hen the sun set, it was the
custom of this being to plunge again into the
sea, and abide all night in the deep..."
Apparently this Oannes was amphibious in
nature - at home in both sea and water. According
to Berossus his appearance was both half fish and
half man. This is interesting because the historians'
detailed description sounds just like that of a frog-
man. Additionally we find that where Oannes led
the way, others followed. As Berossus puts it:
"After this there appeared others like Oannes".
Accounts of other culture bearing beings of
aquatic origin are also contained in the ritual
ceremoniesof the Dogon tribe of Mali in Africa.
The Dogon say these beings whom they named the
'Nommos' (interestingly the Greek word for law)
arrived from the sky and gave.them special
astronomical insight. The baffling truth is that this
apparently unsophisticated tribe knew of an
unknown companion star to the Dog Star Sirius
long before it was known to conventional
astronomy. The Dogon also believe the Nommos
are the overseers and guardians of the universe
and that soon they will again return to the Earth.
1|lST0Rl[flt
US0s
The closer we look into the ancient writings the
more references we find of these educating
influences originating from beings who were
apparently not of our species.In a fragment
attributid to the historian Heladius, we find
reference to a personage called Oe who comes out
from the Red Sea with a fish like body but having
the head, feet and arms of a man. This being is
said to have possessedgreat knowledge of
astronomy and letters.
An interesting anecdote to these accounts is the
fact that unidentified objects have never just been
limited to the sky. In fact USO (Unidentified
Submarine Objects), are almost as prevalent.
Typically these are described as spherical orbs,
rather like eggs that radiate strange lights and
occasionally come to the surface of the ocean.
Could it be then that after all these years
Oannes and the Nommos of the Dogon have
actually returned to this planet as they said they
would? If so it would surely herald the coming of
momentous events because it is said that
whenever such contacts occur great periods of
change are never slow in following.
Intervention from 'sky gods' or aliens is often
quoted as the inspiration behind the proud
achievements of the ancient Egyptians. Amongst
other wonders, their golden period of pyramid
construction combined mastery of stone with
impressive mathematical and geometrical
brilliance. They also loved to hide the full extent
of their knowledge in the dimensions and outline
of their principal constructions; But who had
shown them these crafts, because once again we
see the swift rise of an amazing culture that
springs up with astonishing rapidity?
To the ancient Egyptians belief in the
influencing hand of 'sky gods'was an all powerful
impetus. It defined everything they did and
believed. Here the culture bearer was known by a
variety of names: 'Thoth' was widely accepted as
i ti li; i $iii:iifii l.** sedemlertsst
 the bringer of wisdom. They ascribed to him the
invention of the sciencesof astronomy,
mathematics,geometry and medicine.
Another important figure in the Egyptian
pantheon was Ptah. The greatest of all the gods
of Memphis. Apparently his name is taken to
mean 'opener' - an opener of knowledge into
all handicrafts. Above all, the Egyptians
regarded him as the masrer architect (the
fashioner of the universe) whose knowledge
and inspiration led to the whole magnificent
programme of pyramid building.
To Osiris is ascribed knowledge of civiliry and
manners. In his book Myths and Legends of Egypt
Lewis Spencewrites glowingly of his influence,
"The land of Egypt flourished under his rule as
never before. Like another'hero-god'he set
himself the task of civilising his people who at his
coming were in a very barbarous condition,
induiging in cannibaiistic and other savage
practises.He gave them a code of laws, taught
them the acts of husbandry and showed them the

Once again we see here the archetypal description
of the culture bearing beings that in all corners of
this globe are seen as having brought a crucial
influence to otherwise primitive people. It would
appear that wherever we go in the ancient world
we find clear and unambiguous accounts of
influencing beings that have shaped the entire
path of human development. According to these
ancient sources man was once taught great things
by others who were not of his species- beings
who quite literally just arrive from the sky.
Some even go as far as to say that this influence
extends straight on down to this very day - that the
role of the culture bearers is still far from over. And
if all this seemsfar too implausible iust imagine that
barely one hundred yearsago the thought of man

ofthese way of interpreting UFOs. The modern perception could perceive them in abnormal ways? There is
even the possibiliry that such creatures might give
off radiation which could disturb our minds, thus
creating many of the symptoms associated with
UFO sightings and abductions.
People who believe in UFOs as sky creatures,
rather than alien ships, feel that the creatures are
at home on Earth. They are not aliens in the usual
senseof the world; they are simply rare sky
animals, normally obscure to us.
Despite the bizarre nature of this belief, there is
a great deal of evidenceto support it. The theory
of Orgone Energy which, although not a part of
conventional science,could help to explain where
these flying bioforms come from.
An Austrian scientist named Wilhelm Reich
discovered a form of energy which he called
'orgone'. This he believed was the force that gave
life to the universe, and could also be responsible
for the sky creatures.
Reich was known for his psychological studies,
but after a while he turned his attention to the
study of organic decay. He filmed moss and grass
disintegrating, noting the way they broke into

se![eInber

 blue-green vesicles. He saw that when materials
are allowed to disintegrate in a nutrient solution,
they swell to form these vesicles, which he called
bions. Although his findings are not backed up by
conventional science, he was certain that these
'bions' were a source of life, spontaneously
forming into amoeba and protozoa. He believed
that the force of organic matter was somehow the
source of life. In recent years, the spontaneous
appearance of form from chaos has become more
widely accepted. It could be that Reich had
discovered an aspect of chaos theory years before
its time, by seeing the.life force at work.
Ifhile working with bion preparations, Reich
obtained a deep tan, and found that his lab coat
glowed in the dark. A classical physicist assured
Reich that his experiments could not be forming
radiation, but he couldn't ignore the evidence
before him. It was this energy, produced by life
itself, that he came to call orgone.
Orgone is a subtle form of energy, a
combination of wave forms and radiation, that is
created by all living things. It is somewhat akin ro

sites, are part of a gridwork of energS fuelling
the planet. It is widely believed that such a grid
exists, and that it is natural in origin, but that it
has been further empowered by the building of
ancient sites.
Structures such as Stonehenge and Avebury,
along with other stone circles, standing stones,
burial mounds and tumuli might be similar to the
components of a circuit board, regulating a
previously unknown energy.
People who visit ancient sites often have
experiences that would be expected from coming
into contact with orgone energy. There are reports
of dizziness and nausea. Photographic film often
fogs, and batteries in cameras drain. People taste
something bitter and metallic, and there are
reports of heightened awareness, headaches and
memory loss. It is known that orgone can create
these effects, indicating that ancient sites do
attract and regulate orgone energy.

0R00ilt
[0t{

It is said that orgone is created by the interaction
of sunlight with living tissue. This creares bions, a
sort of biological ether. This ether, which clings to
living tissue, is though to be responsible for
consciousnessand memory. Conventional science
has never found a full oxplanation for
consciousness,and continues to ignore Reich's
discovery of a supern4tural energy which could be
responsible for keeping us alive. This energy could
be the force that transforms us from bundles of
atoms into living, thinking beings.
As well as being attracted to organic materials,
Reich discovered that orgone tended to settle into
special boxes that he created. These were lined
with metal, and contained alternating layers of
organic and metallic material. These structures are If these ancient sites are orgone accumulators, Illi$t orgone

Reich observed spontaneouslife emerging from

happen in the upper atmosphere.Such life would

These amoeba-like masses,or bioforms, would

 Many researchershave assumedthat UFOs are
nothing more than ball lightning or some other
meteorological effect, due to the way they are
often seen in areaslinked to electrical power or
geological faults. It is possible however that UFOs
are seen in these areas because they are attracted
to the sites, as feeding or breeding giounds.
These bioforms, which are normally invisible,
might become visible when they approach Earth,
becauseof the lower magnetic frequencieswhich
occur here. This is why we see them as physical
objects, or glowing lights at night. This would also
explain why 'ball lightning' is seento move in an
intelligent way; because it isn't iightning at all, but
a living, flying creature.

If orgone sky creaturesdo exist, they could be
responsiblefor the majority of UFO sightings.
Many observers say that UFOs are organic and
flexible, rather than stationary. They have been
seen floating over roads, at close range, and are
sometimessaid to be more like a gas or ball of
glowing light than a solid. Such observationsmay
be more accurate than the clich6d flying saucers
that witnessesdescribe.It's quite possiblethat
when peopie see orgone aliens, they perceive them
as spaceshipsdue to their inexplicable appearance.
If you study UFO reports, you will find that many
contain descriptions of gas-like structures,and the
shape of the 'craft' changing. Sometimesthe
'ship' is described as being transparent, with
strange inner workings, which could possibly
mean that people are seeingthe internal organs of
these unusual creatures.
UFOs are often seen changing shape as they fly,
which does not fit ifi with the concept of solid
ships. Orgone aliens, however, would be flexible
and could easily stretch; this might even be a part
of their natural propulsion. There are also reports
of UFOs flying into hillsides, or into the ground,
which would be possiblefor orgone entities. By
existing in different vibrational wavelengths, they
may be able to passthrough physical objecs as
easily as we pass through water. ril/hen UFOs
disappearspontaneously,it could be that the
orgone creaturesare disguising themselveswith a
form of camouflage; by raising their frequency,
they might make themselvesinvisible.
People who witness UFOs report experiences
similar to those that occur when orgone is present,
including memory loss and missing time. It is just
possiblethat the whole UFO phenomenon has
developed from the misperception of such sky
creatures. Even physical interaction with apparent
aliens could be down to the brain being affected
by the strong electromagnetismgiven off by
orgone creatures.This energy could also make our
car enginescut out, which is something that UFOs
are often said to cause.

that crop circles are created by orgone aliens,
which could explain why radiation, radio
distortions, and orgone after-effects are
experienced in crop circles. UFOs are often seen
close to crop circles, before and after their
formation. Perhapswhen orgone aliens pass
through fields, they leave this trace, although it is
possible that the orgone aliens are trying to
communicate with us through crop markings. If,
however, the hoax theory proves to be true, it is
possible that crop circles act as orgone
accumuiators,thus attracting UFOs. Many crop
circle hoaxers report seeinganomalous lights, and
their circles are known to produce paranormal
effects. It is possible that ail circles are hoaxes,
but this doesn't necessarilystop them from being
a potent form of orgone accumulator, attracting
the sky creatures.
UFOs have been seen on Earth for many
centuries,but contact has never been made. To
this date, there is no evidenceof actual aliens
recorded on film. \7e may be going about Ufology
the wrong way, by thinking of UFOs as aliens
from another place. In a few years, as orgone
energy becomesunderstood more widely, science
may find that the aliens are already in our midst.

Another argument put forward by Sitchin and
supported by Morning Sky is that the famous
Egyptian symbol of the winged 'sun disk' is nor a
depiction of the sun at all, but a representationof
the twelfth planet, Nibiru. Ancient wisdom often
alludes to one more planet in the solar system,a
planet with an enormous orbit that the Egyptians
called 'the imperishable star', or 'the planet of a

the voyage of the sun god through creation might
be portrayed as the flight of a winged sun-disk.
All this has fascinating repercussionswhen we
consider the Hale Bopp comet - if the ancients
hold it in esteem,why did it hold so much power
and significance?Perhapsthe winged sun God is

As lvell as heavenly objects,crop circles also
appear to have a spiralling action, a spirai arm
and two bodies contained within them. Robert
Morning Sky links these to the comet and thinks
they augur the coming of the twelfth planet. As a
final twist to the tale, there is one rather ominous-
looking crop circle in \Tiltshire which seemsto
draw out the sun and all the planetary orbits up as
far as the asteroid belt. The third ring has no
planet and Earth is the third planet in orbit
around the sun. Are the crop circles in fact a
warning and if so, is this warning falling on deaf
ears?\7e will have to wait and see...

 However, this particular formation was
intriguing becauseof the time in which it was
created - 15 minutes if the pilot is to be beiieved.
To do this would take a very large number of
people and extreme organisation. The field is next

So how did the owner of the farm feel about it all?
Mrs Sandel seemedin a mixture of moods. As you
often find with farmers with crop circle formations
in their fields, instead of sulking about the loss of
crop, they invite people to look at the formation
themselvesand charge a small fee for the privilege,
two pounds a head in this instance.By the looks of
things this must have paid off as the daily influx of
crop circle enthusiastsand those who are simply
curious was tremendous.
Recently however, Mrs Sandel has been a little
disheartenedabout vandalism to the formation.
She tells how a gang of 35 youths stormed the
field one night without paying and how they left a
terrible mess in their wake. She has also had nasty
moments with angry'young men who refuse to pay
on the grounds that it's just a field like any other
and they have the right!
However, not all is bitternessand bad news. She
seemsto now have a genuine interest in the crop
circle and talks about the formation with pride.

basis,such as crop circle expert Colin Andrews,

of mystery and ancient significance. It is estimated
to be around 5,000 years old. There are many
beliefs surrounding it. Firstly, it was believed to
have been a place built for sky worship. It has also
been linked to Druids, a type of Ceitic priests but
most significantly it is seento be some kind of
astronomical time keeping and prediction device.
In 1,919London's Society of Antiquaries carried
out excavations for sake of finding out the history
and purpose of the ancient site. It appeared that
there were three main periods of buiiding.

The following researchis courtesy of W J Whitry
an Alien Encounters contributor, who gives clues
to the deeper significanceof the stones.
A zoologist investigatingbats discoveredthat at
certain times of day standing stones emit high
frequency sounds in a puisating rhythm out of the
range of human hearing and only detectablewith
an ultra sonic detector.In 1,978the Rollright
stones near Oxford were investigated.The
pulsating sounds occurred around dawn every day
and lasted severalhours on those mornings of the
Spring and Autumn equinoxes. Circles of stone
were also found to create areasof ultrasonic
silencewithin the circle when the outside
levels remained normal.
'Witnessesto crop circle creation are adamant
that there is an electrical presence,as they witness
arcs of light and hear cracks similar to the
'cracking of thunder' or an electrical dischargeas
Ziggy Kklyonsski quotes, "It was like a Van De
Graff generator.Just before a Van De Graff fires
there's that almost neon purple, which you get
inside a plasma dome. You get the fields between
the two electrodeswhich arc." Could this possibly
be linked to the quartz crystal vibrations from
the stonesthemselves?
So is the Stonehengecrop formation a genuine
'Sfho
one? would dare put money on it? It seems
however, safe enough to say this caseis possibly
the best to date for a genuine paranormal circle
for the following reasons:
1. The pilots claim that it was created in fifteen
minutes.
2. It was created in daylight near a thriving
tourist spot.
3. The size of the formation and its precision
would take a very conspicuousteam of people
who were not seen,
4. The formation has similarities to another
recent massive650ft formation in Dorchester
which was created in a few hours and is also
widely held to be a genuine formation. The link
being the spiral shape.
The trouble with crop circles is that the sceptics
and the believers do not seem to trust each others'
stories.!7e have people swearing that they know
how to make the circles and also spoke to
believerswith testimonies to verify that it would
be humanly impossible. So, as per usual, we are
left with a mystery, one that may never be solved.

been unaware of. The first surprise for me was to
learn that Arthur, who has been in this field of
researchfor some 40 odd years,was the original

others, Arthur has not sought publicity, written

nowadays), but rather, has been quietly lecturing
up and down the country, charging groups only

outline of an amoeboid. Investigator and head of
BEAMS 'WestYorkshire, Mark Gibbons, reported a
paranormai occurrence whilst visiting this time-
worn position.
On 3Oth March, 1996, Mark, along with his
aunt, her niece Michelle and her son Craig, went
to this the point which overlooks the \Tharfe
Valley.The intriguing piece of coarsesandstone
which measuresabout 19 feet long and about four
feet thick, had been the source of many a rumourJ
and it was decided to take some pictures of the
site. Upon touching the stone, Mark, who has
certain psychic abilities, claimed that he could
immediately feel energiesrushing through his
body. Immediately the nagging pain of an old
arthritic complaint vanished. His aunt (who is alsc,
psychic and very spiritual) then proceeded to
meditate and begin a conversation with an unseen
entity on the rock, when suddenly something
happened which was only visible to Mark. To his
surprise, he watched a stunning, glowing, violet-
coloured 'vision' shoot ollt from the swastika.
Standing back, thinking it was a trick of the light,
Mark turned away, and then looked again, and the
figure had completely gone.
Mark says,"It is up to the reader to decide
whether or not to believe what I have reported. To
my mind this event actually happened."
There are various stone circles on Ilkley Moor,
the best known of which is the 'fwelve Apostles',

other of a much more tecent date) concerning a
potential military radio-delay building off the
beaten track over Ilkley Moor. Using the few clues
to hand, Mark and fellow researcher/archaeologist
Gary Foster have indeed confirmed this significant
discovery close to another ancient monument, that
of the 'Cross Stone'.

bizarre about the discovery was the absence of
footprints around the body: what's more, the coal
hadn't even been disturbed. The only logical way
that Adamski's body could have ended up on top
of the heap was if it had been lowered onto it
from above. There was no way the corpse could
have been dragged to the top without leaving a
trail. Even more startling were the coroner's
findings. Apparently a strange substance
resembling cream was discoveredaround
Adamski's neck - a substancenot previously

Yet this was not the only occasion Alan Godfrey
would be involved with possibleUFO activities. In
November 1980 whilst driving back to Todmorden
police station along the Burnley Road, PC Godfrey
encountered a lit round object near the roadside.
The policeman stopped his car and began to

Moving to Sowerby, Halifax, a large UFO was
seen on February 26th. The object was seen for
about half an hour, emitting pulses of white light.
At around 9pm, people reported seeinga Tornado
fighter heading towards the Sowerby area. Eye
witnesses claim that as the Tornado confronted
the object, it shot off at a great speed, but didn't
make any discernable sound.
On the 29th, a huge triangular-shaped object
was encounteredby a single witness, who claimed
that the object first appeared travelling from the
Scammonden area and suddenly stopped and
hovered above their home. The object was
described as being triangular in shape with about
25 different coloured lights, and the witness could
only compare it to something from Star Thek. The
UFO hovered above the house, about 10 metres
above the roof, for roughly five minutes. It then
took off again at great speed. Sadly, no
photographs were taken for the annals of Ufology.

Since March 28th this year, many orange balls of
light have been spotted around the Scammonden
area (Australia is currently experiencing the same
phenomena almost daily). Three members of
BEAMS decided to go up to Scammonden to
investigate. About 30 minutes later they saw a
bright orange ball of light, moving at extreme
speed towards where they'd parked their car.
Suddenly the object stopped and started to dance
up and down. The object, viewed through
binoculars, was describedas a perfect sphere. The
group attempted to initiate contact by flashing
their headlights in the direction of the object, but
without success.Altogether, the sighting lasted for
about 10 minutes.
Just as the BEAMS members were about to
leave, they noticed that the object had reappeared
over the Sowerby area. Again the object was
observed through binoculars, only this time an
orange tail of light was seen coming from it. The
object then appeared to be writing symbols in the
sky, shortly after which it stopped, changed shape
into a triangle and disappeared.
Yet more was to happen that evening. As the
group were driving home, they saw the object
again reappear over Sowerby. This time it
demonstrated a new trick. It split into two red
Iights, which proceeded to dance around one
another. Then there was a flash of violet light
before the object finally vanished. Again, the lack
of a camera meant no photos were taken.

On Thursday 13th June, Mr Neil Jenkins
(pseudonym) frantically called Yorkshire BEAMS
at 11.45pm. Clearly distressed,Jenkins began to
relate what had happened to him on the way
home from a friend's house. Near a church,
Jenkins noticed a white light which he took for a
star. The light was bouncing around in the sk5
until it became srationery. At first, Jenkins pur this
down to a quick drink he'd had earlier, and sat
down on anearby bench. Looking at the star
again, he noticed it changed colour to red.

This story now takes a peculiar rwist - Jenkins
suddenly had an overwhelming urge to go to a

meet some 'beings'. Jenkins was asked if anything
