A Pantomime of Unrealities – A DWELLER ON THREE PLANETS

Alien Base: The Evidence for Extraterrestrial Colonization of Earth – A Pantomime of Unrealities – A DWELLER ON THREE PLANETS

Coe was anxious to learn about his friend’s origin. Here, as usual, we run into difficulties. Contactees frequently are given seemingly ludicrous points of alien origin which tend to devalue their accounts. Zret replied that his present homes were on two planets: ‘. . . one, the planet Mars, nearing the end of an evolutionary life, and the other, planet Venus, younger in evolutionary processes than Earth, but its higher regions are not too drastically different from the environment here’. Evidently, he also spent a considerable amount of time on planet Earth.

In later meetings, Zret explained that his race had originated on a planet called Noma’, slightly smaller than Earth, with four moons, orbiting 85 million miles around Tau Ceti (a star about 11 light years from ours, similar in age and type to our own). Fourteen thousand years ago, Norca began dehydrating slowly, inexorably, to the extent that drastic action was necessary to preserve the race.

Everything was tried to counteract the effects of dehydration, but nothing worked. The only solution was to migrate to another solar system. Ours — having a similar sun — was chosen. Eventually, following a successful exploratory mission to Earth, during which contact was established briefly with Cro-Magnon humans, the expedition returned to Norca. It was decided that Norcans would colonize Earth. Supposedly, 243,000 Norcans eventually left their planet in sixty-two huge spacecraft, together with various species of animals, plants and insects. Owing to unforeseen and tragic circumstances whereby nearly all of the ships were drawn into our Sun, only one Norcans’ Ark’ made it; even then, it crash-landed on Mars, killing many on board. Nonetheless, 3,700 out of the 5,000 or so on board survived.

The Norcans, claimed Zret, overcame the challenge of Mars’ relatively hostile environment and spent about 900 years on the planet. ‘Succeeding generations,’ he explained, ‘once again advanced to the scientific potential of launching twin probes, to Venus and Earth, both of which were subsequently colonized. In the primary stages of this expansion, bases of research were established on Venus to study its peculiar atmosphere, [but] the main colonization was concentrated on Earth.’ If Coe and Zret — are to be believed, these colonization areas were, in chronological order: the mythological continent of Atlantis; the Cuzco Valley in the Andes; the legendary continent of Lemuria (at a point about 1,000 miles east of what is now known as the Marshall Islands); northern Tibet; and, finally, Lebanon. Norcans reproduced with native inhabitants. Irrespective of skin pigmentation, Zret explained, the indigenous Earth people at that time had black or brown hair and eyes, and the interbreeding led to a blond-haired, fair-skinned people.

‘On Venus, the man form had not appeared,’ said Zret. ‘Today our basic home is the high land of Venus, although a good part of our research is still conducted on Mars, especially electronic probe[s], for its thin atmosphere and peculiarity of magnetic fields lends itself, as an ideal laboratory, to almost distortion-free reception.’

The atmospheres of both Mars and Venus are known to be far too inhospitable for unprotected human existence. On Mars, the atmosphere is far too thin and cold, while Venus’s atmospheric pressure is said to be about 90 times that of Earth, with a temperature averaging around 470 degrees Celsius and a massive carbon-dioxide atmosphere (97 per cent), with no water. Ten per cent of Venus’s terrain is highland, and the highest point on the planet is the mountain known as Maxwell Montes, towering 35,400 feet above Venus’s ‘sea level’ and 27,000 feet above a huge highland region the size of Australia, known as Ishtar Terra.

Because Venus has often been named as an abode of certain aliens — Coe supposedly being the first to be told this — we are left with a paradox.

Assuming that neither Coe nor Zret was lying, could it be that the Norcans, utilizing highly advanced technology, were able to convert the hostile environment — which in any case may be less extreme in the highland regions — to suit their requirements? This idea is not wholly fanciful — even with terrestrial technology. The late Carl Sagan, a leading authority on planetary sciences, hypothesized that injection of appropriately grown algae into the Venusian atmosphere ‘would in time convert the present extremely hostile environment of Venus into one much more pleasant for human beings’.
