Documents / FOIA release
This Defense Documentation Center report (ADA068988) reproduces a paper Thomas E. Bearden prepared for the 1979 MUFON Annual Symposium. It carries a public-release distribution statement. Bearden is a retired Army lieutenant colonel and nuclear engineer. The paper proposes a speculative mind and matter model built on a claimed fourth law of logic and hyperspatial frames. It argues that the collective unconscious can materialize thought forms under Cold War stress, and it fits major UFO waves and U.S. cattle mutilations since 1973 into that model.

7. The only thing that has I occupies I or carries time*is the photon. A photon (AEAT) is a ~ieee of energy welded to a piece of lime with no seam in the middle. Because it carries time, then time flows at the speed of light -- it can flow no faster than its carrier. Every mass in the universe is continually absorbing and emitting photons. When a photon is absorbed, it connects a time tail to the mass, giving (momentarily) t3T masstime. At the next instant, a photon is emitted, carrying off the time tail anti leaving behind a spatia! 13 mass. The photon itself is not detectable; only its inte~action With a mass is detectable. Figure 1 shows the raindrop model of quantized change, proposed by this author. 8. The photon carries mind and virtual state. Virtui'il objects and mental objects both occupy time. Since the only thing that contains or carries time is the photon, then all mental objects and virtual objects are "carried" by the photon, hanging in the little piece of time welded into the photon. 9 • .IPe photon interaction creates the obJective state, The two-slit experiment, fundamental to a!i quantum mechanics, proves this. If an electron emitted in the two-slit apparatus is not struck by a photon, it interacts With both slits at once, giving the wave diffraction type distribution in electron strikes on the screen. If the electron (which is emitted as t3T masstime, not 13 mass) is struck by a photon, the photon strips off the time tail from the electron, leaving a classical particle (L3). The electron then goes through only one hole. 10. Nothingness-- pure vacuum-- is a plenum, not an emptindss. We now know that empty vacuum itself contains enormous, mind-boggling quantities of incoherent energy, called 'zero-point energy. " Further, we know that this energy £2!L be observably tapped. Simply putting two conducting plates in a vacuum coheres part of the energy, and the hydrogen atom has been tapping a bH of this energy since the beginning of ttme, with the Lamb shift. Soviet theorists are particularly adept in this area, 3 and Soviet experimenters have directly measured this energy cohered between two quartz plates. 4 11. There are already two kinds of reality in physics -- virtual and observable. The so-called "observable world of changes" is composed of standard-sized bricks, so to speak. If one examines a brick which is a little smaller, one finds that the small brick "disappears" in so far as instruments and detection are concer~1ed, but the small brtcl: is still quite "real" and useful e'.·en though it cannot be detected even in theory. Almost all particle interactions are by means of virtual particles or virtual photons. E.g. , virtual photons continually given off and absorbed by an electron are what creates the electric charge of the electron. If these virtual photons are destroyed or quenchedS, the electron is converted to a neutrino, which zips off into deep space without interaction. In this way, electrical currents in electronic systems ·::>r human nervous systems may be partially or fully quenched, without permanent damage to the system. In particle physics, many virtual particles decay into real particles, in fact, :~nto almost any type of real, observable particle known. Little moclern physics would be left without real, interactable "pieces of nothing," -- virtual state entities. 12 • ..I.h.5tmind may be regarded as a virtual entity. Since it shares the time dimension, it is objechve, yet the mind object shares none of the physical world's spatial dimensions. We may therefore model a mind object (thought object or thoughtform) in a higher dimensional (7 -dimensional) space, where all its ti,ree spatial dimensions are rotated beyond any intersection with the laboratory frame, and whose time dimension is coincidental with the time dimension of the lab 4-space. In such a 7-dimensional hypersp;ice, the mind and its interaction With matter can be precisely and rig~":ously modeled. 13. Time is the only "box" that contains multiple objects in the same unit. We state that, in addition, one unit of time <.:an contain an infinite number of virtl.!al objects or mental objects, so long as they are incoherant or sufficiently so to remain subquantum. Note that the "heat" diffusion into, out of, and through a macroscopi.: object also difft:.ses virtual state and mental objects. * for observable changes 2.
