Saucers and smoking. Newsweek, v. 52, Aug. ll, 1958: 85.

" Saucers under glass. Newsweek, v. 40, Aug. 18, 1952: 49. Physicist Noel Scott reports that he has produced flying saucers in mlniature in the laboratory.

Discussing the relationship between UFOs and the fourth dimension, the author suggests the following possibilities: (1) the fourth dimension is a means of connection between different three-dimensional space; (2) space travelers are indeed coming from outer space but they use the fourth dimension for their traveling; (3) the UFOs are not three-dimensional but actually four-dimensional objects. ----- UFOs and the fourth dimension. Flying saucer review, v. IO, Jan. -Feb. 1964: 16-20. Outlines four hypotheses concerning the nature of the UFO phenomenon: (1) UFOs are a machine emanating from a region of the cosmos unobservable in our space-time continuum; (2) UFOs originate in our space-time continuum but voyage outside it using the fourth dimension; (3) UFOs are four-dimensional structures and that part of the UFO observable to us is the three-dimensional projection of the structure in that part of the cosmos observable to us; (4) UFOs may be time machines, assuming that the fourth dimension is time. ----- UFOs and the fourth dimension. Flying saucer review, v. ll, Nov. -Dec. 1965: 12-13, 18. Author enlarges on hypothesis that UFOs could be a sort of spacecraft traveling to our space along the fourth dimension and suggests that they are not necessarily a means oLrannportation in the conventional sense of the word, but instead, they could be technical devices for the production of local spatial curvatures which extend into the space to be contacted. Once this has been accomplished, beings from the other space could transcend into ours. 125
