The existence of extraterrestrials has long been
a subject of heated debate between scientists, scholars and stargazers
who've spent many an hour studying the night sky and the universe beckoning
beyond. Scientific proof of whether distant life forms and existence are
legitimate causes yet an addition bone of contention between UFOlogists and
skeptics alike, and while it's easy to make jokes about Area 51 or Roswell,
there is certainly a basis for those jokes and rumors. Something had to have
happened in these places and many others throughout the globe to engender
such speculation and argument. In his book, Unidentified Flying
Objects: Starcraft, Der Voron has offered an extremely well researched
and detailed report of incidents that have occurred all across the globe,
from many different eras. Ancient writings may have been the first
indication that we are not alone', and Der Voron cites several of
these sources as an example. Such statements originate from many different
countries and in different continents, from ancient times to contemporary,
from Indian tales of events that took place in the wilds of Kipling country
to experiences related by a German artillery gunner during World War Two.
Reports of 'unidentified contact with objects of undetermined origins' have
been filed in government offices from the plains of South America to the
fjords of Norway and the steppes of Asia.
Highly annotated and illustrated with fascinating examples of starship
models and their possible makeup, armaments and defensive mechanisms, this
ambitious work offers a wealth of documented information on not only
Starcraft, otherwise known as 'Flying Saucers', but the types of
extraterrestrials that have flown them. All aliens are not created equal, as
their many varied depictions and origins in historical writings attests. The
author's use of a plethora of written documentation ably enhances his
description of personal civilian and military accounts of those who have had
some kind of interaction with these objects. Also explored in great detail
is the intelligence of our sea life, mainly as that intelligence relates to
dolphins and the octopi of our deepest oceans, and how they, in turn, can be
used in the search for extended knowledge of the universe surrounding our
planet. How and why these creatures have gained such highly specialized
communication skills and how it is that an octopus can experience an event
and not only remember it, but learn from it, is explored, and commented upon
as it relates to man's search for a higher intelligence.
While replete with scientific data, terms and information, this work by Der
Voron is nevertheless highly readable and extremely illuminating for the
common reader with no prior knowledge of extraterrestrial existence, while
at the same time it also provides hours of reading material and
documentation to keep the more knowledgeable busy. Der Voron's conscientious
effort to dig deep for his sources shows in his detailed reports, and his
data gathering and willingness to share that information is a challenging
endeavor in which he has aptly succeeded. The existence of extraterrestrials
is an immensely interesting topic, one that will be explored for years to
come, and this work can provide as an invaluable asset to any stargazer's
bookshelf.
