Flying Saucer Review Case Histories, Supplement No. 1, October 1970
AI-Generated Summary
This document is the inaugural October 1970 supplement to the Flying Saucer Review, dedicated to documenting and analyzing specific UFO case histories from the UK, France, and Denmark. It features eyewitness accounts, photographic evidence, and investigative analysis by contributors to the Flying Saucer Service Ltd.
This document is the first supplement to the Flying Saucer Review, titled 'Case Histories,' published in October 1970. It serves as a dedicated publication for detailed reports on UFO sightings, intended to provide a permanent record of incidents that might otherwise remain unpublished. The editor, Charles Bowen, outlines the magazine's mission to encourage responsible, non-cultist investigation and to provide a forum for data that the mainstream press often ignores. The issue contains several detailed case reports from various locations. H. M. Bishop, a police traffic patrol officer, reports on a sighting in Hampstead, London, on June 16, 1970, involving stationary lights that moved in a non-conventional manner. Charles Bowen and Dr. Bernard E. Finch document a sighting over the Strait of Dover on July 3, 1970, where witnesses observed objects changing formation from a 'box' to an 'arrowhead.' Dr. Finch also reports on a Danish police officer, E. H. Maarup, who photographed a UFO on August 13, 1970, after his patrol car's engine and radio failed. The Reverend Howard Bell contributes a report on sightings in Wiltshire, including a 1965 incident involving a glowing object and subsequent reports of strange sounds. Jean-Claude Baillon provides a detailed account of luminous objects over La Souterraine, France, on September 3, 1969, supported by photographic evidence and analysis by CIESPI. J. Cresson details a 1955 landing incident in Dinan, France, where a witness encountered two beings near a craft. Alan K. Crewe and Malcolm H. Drew report on a 'mirror-ball' UFO seen in Stirchley, Birmingham, on February 3, 1970. Finally, J. Tyrode revisits a 1954 encounter at Le Vézenay, France, involving a witness who observed two small beings near a road. The publication emphasizes the importance of collecting these accounts to assist in the scientific study of UAP, noting that the 'Condon Report' should not be the final word on the subject. The document includes various sketches, maps, and photographic analyses to support the reported cases.
A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.
