Also by Lindbergh: ". . . both the material and ethereal are varying forms of basic essence."
And: "Will we then find life to be only a stage, though an essential one, in a cosmic evolution of which our evolving awareness is becoming aware? Will we discover that only without space ships can we reach the galaxies, that only without cyclotrons can we know the interior of atoms? To venture beyond the fantastic accomplishments of this physically fantastic age, sensory perception must combine with the extrasensory, and I suspect that the two will prove to be different faces of each other. I believe it is through sensing and thinking about such concepts that great adventures of the future will be found."

Igor Sikorsky, inventor of the helicopter (in an interview with Pace Magazine):
"I venture to make the totally heretical statement -- from the standpoint of modern science -- that the velocity of light is not the limit of velocity. Much greater velocities may exist . . . even though we have never observed them and cannot imagine them . . . "
Sir James Jeans, British astronomer and physicist:
"The Universe begins to look more like a great thought than a great machine . . ."
Marconi, in 1923, made the direct statement to reporters that he expected communication from another planet to consist of "transmission of pictures accompanied by a simple code."
Dr. Frank Drake, formerly Chief of Lunar and Planetary section, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, now director of Arecebo Ionospheric Observatory, Puerto Rico, believes (New York Times) that it may be possible (at this writing) that we are getting signals (radio) from an intelligent source some 12 light years away in groups of planets in the Milky Way. Dr. Drake wonders in discussion with Shirley Thomas in "Men of Space" if "intergallactic TV is the system by which we will contact the intelligence of other worlds." He wonders also, "If we were to receive signals that indicate an intelligent source, how are they to be deciphered? There is no easy way across thousands of light years."
Dr. John C. Lilly, anthropologist, in "Men in Space", says, "Within the next decade or two, the human species will establish communication with another species, nonhuman, alien, possibly extra-terrestrial. If and when interspecies contact is made it may be used as a force for peace or further aid to warfare. It may be that we shall encounter ideas, philosophies, ways and means not previously conceived by the minds of men."
Dr. Carl Sagan, astronomer/biologist who studies life beyond the earth says, "I believe that interstellar spaceflight at relativistic velocities to the furtherest reaches of our galaxy is a feasable objective for humanity. And if this is the case, other civilizations aeons more advanced than ours must today be plying the spaces between the stars. On statistical grounds there is a possibility that the earth was visited by an anvanced extra terrestrial civilization at least once during historical times."
Dr. John O'Keefe, assistant chief, Theoretical Division, Goddard Spaceflight Center, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, who studied data on Vanguard I says, regarding signals from space, "Is our means of searching or listening wrong?" In the physical world "there isn't room for another completely different way of doing things. So why haven't we picked up anything? This is the real question."
Although Albert Einstein's special theory of relativity disclaims the possibility of velocities faster than light in the physical world, Dr. Gerald Feinberg, professor of physics, Columbia University, 1968 is working on a revolutionary hypothesis which says the universe may be filled with particles travelling faster than light and in some cases at nearly infinite speed. Dr. Feinberg has noted that these particles, which he has named 'tachyons', theoretically could drive a space ship at speeds far greater than the maximum velocities permitted by currently known energy sources.
Neither Professor Einstein nor Dr. Feinberg make any reference to the 'natural' factors of the immensely controlled forces existing at the marginal enclosures of light velocity or the universe that exists beyond the velocity of light. H. H.
Jack,
The following pages (eight of them) explain the developed theme. I'm questioning where to insert this material and so they are not consecutively numbered.
Perhaps they should be left separate or not included in this article as I'm not sure the material, though pertinent, can be readily assimilated. Yet it is very important.
At your discretion, they could be left out and beginning could be, Preface P. I. A.
Preface
Because of the unusual nature of my personal sighting of UFO, I have spent a good deal of time in a search for the unknown factors of our existence, and in a search for the proper definition of UFO.
There are two compelling reasons for making an attempt in both directions at once. From the beginning, I felt that the philosophy and science of both subjects needed great clarification and that there was a correlation between the two.
I am not satisfied with a man-made God, because Intelligence to conceive what has been conceived must be vastly more complicated than human mind. I am convinced that the laws of the abstract energy world are in no way governed or administered by the physical world, and that God, to exist at all, must
exist not as an individual force but rather as an abstract energy world, within and without our universe.
