NZDF declassified RNZAF UFO files

NZDF / RNZAF via Internet Archive · 2010-12 · 445 pages · text by OCR

This is a New Zealand Defence Force public release of RNZAF file AIR 39/3/3, "Flying Saucers," which covers 1952 to 1955 and was declassified in September 2010 under the Official Information Act. It collects sighting reports from the public and military personnel, press clippings, and a table of 1952 sightings. It also holds Carter Observatory opinions attributing some reports to meteors. A large part covers the inquiry into lights seen from National Airways Corporation Flight 108 on 31 October 1955, which the RNZAF could not fully explain as Venus.

so seeing that they shot a ray at him and knocked him down, and of course this was not hot, but you know a rope is not hot but you can burn your hand. Well that is about the way this happened and he got burnt a little bit, but it saved his life by frightening him that way and getting him away from the ship, so you see that is a dangerous thing to do to focus the light on them. It is better if you are going to signal, signal the light on the ground, towards the ground, they'll see it if that's what they need.

Q. Have they decreased in number these space people?

A. No they have not. They are increasing rather than decreasing. Last year there were many more of them than ever before, and there were 82 personal contacts made throughout the world, yet the papers only carry two contacts out of the 82.

Q. Is the sun hot?

A. The sun is not as near as we can tell now because the closer we go towards the sun in our own planes the colder it gets. It looks like the radiation that comes from the sun, once it hits our atmosphere, it is there that it begins to heat, and especially when it hits our earth, as well as the light that is produced by the same method.

Q. How can these ships sail through space without being hit by meteors?

A. Well they have a force-field, their own gravity, their own atmosphere, as I have stated before, which is known as a forcefield, and is a negative forcefield radiating from the body of the ship, and anything flying through space and any space debris is also negative, but space is positive, therefore, it will repel anything that might be coming towards the ship.

2. Is space hot or cold, does it have any layers of different temperatures?

A. Well, it has hot layers, warm layers and very cold layers of atmosphere and conditions in space, but travelling at the speed you do and carrying your own atmosphere and your own gravity you do not come in contact with it directly as you would without this prooction.

Q. Your new book "Inside the Space Ships" gives many of these answers doesn't it?

A. Yes it does. It gives quite a number of things in reference to life and many other things.

9. And more information about their thoughts?

Q. And more information about their thoughts?

A. Yes, about the way the live, and how they think; their entertainment and quite a number of things.

9. And they do have a lot of entertainment on these planets as well as work and play?

A. Yes they do, they have beautiful music far greater than we have attained so far and all their entertainment is more or less kind of class work, because they learn from their entertainment the gracefullness of their body, like dancing gives gracefullness of the body, everything is done with the purpose of learning. Always learning, that is their whole desire and the idea behind it is that the more they learn about the laws of nature and comply with them, the more they render their service unto their Creator, and the more they please their Creator. That's their major point of living, to please their Creator, the Supreme Intelligence of the Universe, not like we, we are out to please ourselves and seldom think of our Creator except when we get into trouble, but they are constantly in thought of the Creator and do everything with that thought and to please their Creator to the best of their ability, and the best of their knowledge. They look upon each other as a devine creation and therefore they do not harm each other as we do here on earth.

A. Yes, all done with joy out and what we call universal love and so forth. In other words they see themselves in the other fellow and they wouldn't want to be hurt so they won't hurt the other fellow, and I believe it is time for religious groups all over the world to take this particular lesson and it is the only hope to save civilisation from total destruction, by the religious groups taking up this method and practising by preaching it, and not only preaching it but practising it - PUT IT TO WORK.
