This is a technical report by Thomas E. Bearden, a research scientist with an MS in nuclear engineering, dated January 3, 1977. Bearden submitted it to the Defense Documentation Center under a cover letter and it is approved for public release. The report divides the evolution of life into seven stages and argues that humanity must avoid self-destruction by technologically linking all human brains into a single superbeing. It claims UFO phenomena are consistent with a sixth-stage superbeing preparing humanity for that linkage.

study of the phenomena was centralized around this pattern in a strong and sustained
attempt to forcefit the data to the idea. Only within the last five or six years has
it become increasingly apparent that this na~.ve explanation simply will not fit the
phenomena exhibited. To researchers such as Keel and Constable and Vallee, the
relation of the UFO phenomena to other aspects of man were re:alized fairly early on,
and their efforts in the face of both orthodox science and the established UFO
organizations are examples of what it has taken to highlight those additional
and uncomfortable aspects of UFO's that most Cartesian thinkers would prefer not
to examine or even notice. Men such as Hynek, Vallee, Constable, and Keel are
due some special niche in the Hall of Fame of the New Science that will be born
before the enigma of th~ UFO phenomenon is solved. There are of course others
as well, but these exdmples suffice to carry the intent of the observation.
But one thing the UFO phenomenon is not: It is specifically not due to a
group of young stalwarts in an advanced civilization on Planet X of the star Sirius or
otherwise, getting liquored up on a weekeild, and hopping into the old space jalopy,
motoring over to Planet Earth, and jollying the natives.
For some twelve years the present author has been laboring with some diligence
in an attempt to at least sketch out the outline of the new science that is necessary
before paranormal phenomena -- including ESP, UFO' s, psychokinesis, etc -- can
be comprehended. This search huE: led to some most unusual and unoxpcr.ted corners
of human thought and knowledge-- and experience as well. But a consistent pattern
has been found, albeit a patLcrn so Etrange that the unprepared mind is prone to recoil
in dismay or even fear at the vista of reality that emerges. Nonetheless, the pattern
can be put into the language of p!-lysics -- specifically, it can be united with
Everett's many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics --and metaphysics and
physics combined into a single consistent, scientific system. And in that system
a solution to the UFO problem emerges --a strangl;), bewildering, awesorrte solution
that is a direct parallel in one sense to the Book of Revelations ami to many of the
great religious prophecies. Nonetheless, the scientific correlate cxis ts, and from
the pattern a single human problem is highlighted and its solution is technically
possible. And from the nature of that solitary human problem and its sol1·tion, the
UFO phenomena take on a startlingly new interpretation.
In 11An Approach to Understanding Psychotronics," the author has already
presented an outline for the solution to the UFO phenomenon and the physics of that
solution as well, In this present paper the author presents the human problem and
its solution that fits the physics previously derived, and sketches out the unexpected
nature and purpose of the UFO phenomena in accord with that solution •
Reality is holographic, not Cartesian cubic. Jung's collective unconscious
is on the way to acquiring a collective conscious mind -- one single superconscious
mind, rather than the billions of fragmented individual manccll minds it presently
possesses. This paper sketches out the nature of that acquisition, and tho Appendix
contains the proof that the process results in a multidimensional superbeing having
absolute control over, and transcendence of, ordinary time and space. Two !1undred
million year old bare human footprints in solid sandstone and six hundred million-
year old hurnun sandal prints in solid rock bare witness to the fact that we are not
tho first cycle of man that has followE-d thi~ develot:'ment process on Planet Earth.
Inde.Jd Mcm shull reach the stars -- but in a manner undreamed o£ in his
present wildest imugination. And indeed there are stranger things in ultirnalo reality
than are dreu.r.:cd of in our philosophies.
