UFOs and Related Subjects (Lynn Catoe, 1969)

Author establishes concept that the other stars and star systems have :i;Janets
and that some of these p~anets are fohabitab!e. He postulates that life thereon
is less advanced than that of earth. Radar communication in the "gafactic club''
is a fact, but not from intelligent source, however, we should be alert for sig-
nals. It is speculated that sufficiently highly developed stellar communities are
common but that contacting them, or ih: reverse, would be a matter of chance.

The most suitable microwave frequency to be searched for intelligent signals
from other planets is considered. There are, however, reasons for not using
1,420 Mc or other microwave frequencies, if the distance to the nearest com-
munity more advanced thall our own is 100 light-years rather than the Hl light-
years investigated by Project Ozma.

Sketches are shown on strange creatures who may represent what creatures on
other inhabited planets look like. Explanation is made that although grotesque
by earth standards, they could develop this way in response to different envi-
ronments of other worlds. P~oject Ozma, th~ radio-telescope search for life
on other worlds, is discussed.

Author considers problems raised by the hypothesis that some cosmic radio
signals are intelligently produced.

Autnor suggests that if there are intelligent extraterrestrials on planets in this
galaxy, they may be scientifically and technologically advanced enough to know
of both earth and of man as an intelligent life form. Attempt by them to estab-
lish contact might be by radio !rlillsmissions, space probes, and emission of
radiation in the far infrared.

Methods of communication with intelligent extraterrestrial life and the impli-
cations of contact are considered. Establishment of contact with a superior
race could lead to extermination of the human race. It is probable that intel-
ligent life wculd tend toward the center of the galaxy because of the higher prob-
ability of contacting life th,~re.
