1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,800 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio and welcome back to Coast to Coast. He was 3 00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: last with me about nine years ago. Richard Lawrence has 4 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 1: accumulated a very unique breadth of knowledge and experience and 5 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:17,240 Speaker 1: all kinds of mind, body and spirit, including the area 6 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 1: of UFOs. Richard was Lord Kimberly's speechwriter doing the House 7 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,599 Speaker 1: of Lord's UFO debate back in nineteen seventy nine. Was 8 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 1: the first to bring declassified CIA and Pentagon UFO files 9 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: to Britain back in nineteen eighty. He launched a very 10 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 1: successful campaign in the US for release of UFO data 11 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 1: from the FAA back in eighty seven, and the first 12 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:42,519 Speaker 1: to reveal Soviet Union UFO papers in Britain in nineteen ninety. 13 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 1: His latest book is called The UFOs and the Extraterrestrial Message. Richard, 14 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: welcome back. It's been too long. Oh, thank you, George. Yes, 15 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,559 Speaker 1: thank you for inviting me again. It's good to have you. 16 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: What's new with you. Well, the most recent thing that 17 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: I've actually been working on was biography of doctor George King. 18 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: I think we spoke about him last time, and we 19 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: just completed that and published it last year. That's the 20 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: King who came to Earth, and it sort of describes, 21 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: I think, whatever one's view of him and the Etherist 22 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: Society which he founded, which I'm secretary, I think I 23 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 1: think it's a must for people who are interested in 24 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: UFOs to form their own conclusions know about him, because 25 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: he's such a key figure in the movement. How did 26 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: you get interested in studying and investigating your force, Richard? 27 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: You know, my sort of way, in funny enough, was 28 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: more of a spiritual thing. And that's why I'm so 29 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: pleased that the sort of, if you like, the nuts 30 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: and bolts school of uthology and the spiritual school of 31 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: euthology have come together, I feel, and you know, I 32 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: think both recognize the need for the other. But from 33 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: my point of view, I was at university, I was 34 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: looking into spvarious spiritual teachings. I came across the Etherist Society, 35 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: and then just shortly after that I had and I 36 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: think I believe I could be standing to be corrected 37 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: on this, but I think the Etheric Side is the 38 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: oldest international uf organization in the world. Now, yeah, I 39 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: mean there are some local ones that could be older. 40 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: I know one I think in Cleveland, but that's by 41 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: the bye. I had an amazing sighting at university in 42 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 1: the north of England at a place called Hull, which 43 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: I couldn't argue with at all. It was actually probably 44 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: not a million miles from what they now called the 45 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: tic tac type of object, but in those days they 46 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: called it the cigar shaped. You probably remember that George 47 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: used to be the flying saucer and the cigar shape. 48 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: And so it was oblong and it was moving slowly 49 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: in the sky. But it came at a moment of 50 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: great significance to me when I was looking into this 51 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 1: and making decisions about which path to go down, you 52 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:57,640 Speaker 1: might say, and there sort the tie up between cosmic existence, 53 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: alien existence and spiritual reality was what really brought me 54 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 1: into the whole field. Why did these you have all 55 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: seen to have different shapes, Sir Richard, the oval shapes, 56 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: triangular shape, cigars shaped and tic tac shape. Now, all 57 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: these different shapes, I'll come, yeah, Well, I think that's 58 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: where we need to be really open minded and in 59 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 1: fact open minded about also the shapes of the intelligences 60 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: aboard them. I'm sure they are some of them anyway, 61 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 1: who come from outside this solar system, I believed could 62 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: be very, very different from us. But it doesn't mean 63 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: they're not intelligent life. In terms of the shapes of 64 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: the craft, I mean, I don't really know why they 65 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: would have a triangular one as opposed to around one. 66 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: But I myself had a sighting just a couple of 67 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: years ago, actually in Devon of a triangular object which 68 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 1: I'm sorry that was I'm sorry I say Devon. It 69 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: was in London, actually, that particular one, and it changed, 70 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: you know, in front of the My wife and I 71 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: were looking at it and it changed from triangular to 72 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 1: disc shape too. So they obviously have capacity, and I 73 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: think their biggest capacity, of course, is the ability to 74 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: blink out, you might say, to sort of the whole 75 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:17,119 Speaker 1: concept of invisibility, which Helen Charman, as you mentioned earlier, 76 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: astronomer here, raised the possibility that they could be invisible 77 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: to us. They have a control over the dimensions of space. 78 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: I believe you might call them that. Helen Charman, who's 79 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: fifty six now and was Britain's first astronaut when she 80 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 1: was just twenty seven. He has been interviewed by the 81 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: Observer out there, which you were a former calumnist for 82 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: and she told us, Yeah, she talked about the existence 83 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: of aliens. Now was she talking about little microbes or 84 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: the real big ets we've all been known. It's interesting 85 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: because it was part of an interview, and it was 86 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: just one question in the interview, and it's the only 87 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 1: question that sort of got international cover exactly. It's strange though, 88 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: because when I wrote, as you write, so, I had 89 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 1: a column in that very magazine and it was a 90 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: mind and body column. I was always trying to get 91 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: it to be a mind, body and spirit column, and 92 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 1: they weren't willing to ever go that far. And if 93 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:20,480 Speaker 1: I'd done a piece about, you know, invisible aliens in it, 94 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 1: it wouldn't have been published. They don't think. So it's 95 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: great to see it there. But I think she was 96 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 1: certain well. She was definitely talking about intelligent life. From 97 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: what I can tell. She said, will they be like 98 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: you and me, made up of carbon and nitrogen? Maybe not. 99 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: It's possible they're here right now and we simply can't 100 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: see them. And she talks about there must be all 101 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: sorts of different life forms. So I can't speak for her, 102 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: but it certainly opens up the question of intelligent life. 103 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: Not just you might say microbe life. There have been 104 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: three astronauts now who have talked the pretty strongly about UFOs, 105 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: Helen being one astronaut, the late Gordon Cooper. He claimed 106 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 1: that he saw several UFOs filmed them and that they 107 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: were confiscated the pick, the video was confiscated, the film 108 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: was confiscated from him. And then Edgar Mitchell, whom we knew, 109 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 1: the Apollo fourteen astronaut, who told me he'd never saw anything, 110 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: but that he was ninety percent convinced from the people 111 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: he knew within government that we were being visited. Yeah, 112 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: and lied to I think he really stuck his neck out, 113 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: didn't the Edgar Mitchell? Sure? Did you know? He didn't 114 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 1: mind what happened. He just said that the American government 115 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,039 Speaker 1: and undoubtedly other governments are not telling us the truth. 116 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: Which you know, one thing I've noticed, and I'm sure 117 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: you must have noted more than me, George, But when 118 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 1: I was first speaking about this, you mentioned the House 119 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: of Lords Debaton. I was in my twenties then, and 120 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,359 Speaker 1: some of the early papers that came over that I 121 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: brought here, and also so later I brought some papers 122 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 1: from Russia as well over here to York to Britain. 123 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: You know, if you'd gone out there and I used 124 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 1: to go out there and say, well, governments are lying 125 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: to us, you'd be regarded as a bit of a nutter, 126 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: a pretty eccentric sort of fringe person just for saying that. 127 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: Whereas now if you went out now and say, well, look, 128 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: governments are telling us the truth, we can trust them, 129 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: you'd be regarded as a complete nutter. Nobody believes them 130 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: at all anymore. But that's one massive shift I think. 131 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: I think opinion polls show that most people believe the 132 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: governments have lied to us on this topic. Whereas I 133 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: mean in never mind me, I mean doctor King did 134 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: a rally in a big square here called Trafalgar Square 135 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: in the west end of London in nineteen fifty eight 136 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 1: saying that governments were lying to us and then they 137 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: must tell us the truth about flying sources as it 138 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: was then. So I think there's been a massive shift. 139 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: And as you rightly say, people like Edgar Mitchell, Gordon 140 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: Cooper helped. I noticed the astronomer Chris Hadfield, who was 141 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: a former commander of the International Space Station, said I 142 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: don't know this is an exact quote I don't know 143 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: of any astronauts who think we're alone in the universe. 144 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: And that's quite a statement, really, because he must have 145 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: met quite a lot of astronauts. Absolutely, I mean they 146 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: have Sorry, no, you go ahead. I was going to say, 147 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: they must have access to information that we don't have, 148 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: and they, you know, astronaut after astronaut. Another one's Brian 149 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:37,079 Speaker 1: O'Leary comes out, say, I mean Brian O'Leary, the late 150 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: Brian O'Leary, who was on a NASA mission in nineteen 151 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 1: sixty seven, said there's abundant evidence that were being contact. 152 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: Civilizations have been monitoring us for a very long time, 153 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: and that their appearance is bizarre from any type of 154 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: traditional materialistic Western point of view. They must know, I think, 155 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: another one being Michael Collins, Jeff Hoffman, one could go 156 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,439 Speaker 1: on astronaut after astronaut has come back. Some of them 157 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 1: have had epiphanies in space, they say, a one kind 158 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: or another, sometimes religious ones. That's another interesting thing, I think, George, 159 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: is this a crossover between religion and science. Yes, and 160 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: you know that the sort of the science needing to 161 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: move towards the mystical in order to explain some of 162 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:30,559 Speaker 1: its findings. Is it possible that governments are withholding information 163 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: because they are afraid that they will lose control over us? 164 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: I think it's I would be very confident that that 165 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: is a fact. I think that's one of their reasons. Now, 166 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: I was thinking about I often ask this, and I'm 167 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 1: sure you are, but when is a good day really 168 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: for a prime minister or a president to come out 169 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 1: and say to their people, Look, folks, we have lied 170 00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,839 Speaker 1: to you for decades, you know, decsions. Just aren't you 171 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 1: lying to do things like that? On any day? They'll 172 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: just keep lying with their views. No, because occasionally you'll 173 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: get a politician who believes in UFOs will say so 174 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,199 Speaker 1: we'll stick their head above the parapet, but it doesn't 175 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: really go anywhere. And you know, several of promise to 176 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: release information. Sometimes it generally, if it comes out at all, 177 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 1: it comes out through the back door. I think, what 178 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: do you think of Louis Alazando, the former Pentagon official 179 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: who went public talking about UFOs and the things that 180 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 1: they could do. I love some of the things he said. 181 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: I think that one of the things he said, which 182 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 1: I really I latched onto, was that, in his view, 183 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: the I think he said that his whole experience showed 184 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: him that the UFOs that have been seen, tracked film, 185 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: whatever it is, there is nothing. I think his phrase 186 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: was in the US inventory which is capable of that 187 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: or any other inventory. I think that's very important, because 188 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: I've noticed a big change. I mean in the sort 189 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: of the eighties and the nineties, the sort of explanations 190 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: you'd get to debunk UFOs, sometimes by government officials, sometimes 191 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 1: by individuals. We're pretty ludicrous, you know. I remember one 192 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: being a flock of mutton birds coming inland to mate, 193 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: and you'd get these players from a Japanese squid fleet. 194 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: But the latest thing seems to be, you know that 195 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: there's some secret terrestrial aircraft which they're testing, and therefore 196 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: that's the sort of new way of lying about UFOs, 197 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: pretending they're actually some of our secret craft from military establishments. 198 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: So Louis Elizondo coming on saying that the capacity of 199 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: UFOs is way beyond anything that we've got in America 200 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 1: or anywhere else, I think is a key statement. Why 201 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: are you a believer, Richard? I'm a believer, as I 202 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:04,079 Speaker 1: mentioned the beginning, primarily for spiritual reasons. I am was 203 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: a very close friend and follower. I'm pleased to say 204 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: of doctor King and George King. Right, that's doctor George King, Yeah, 205 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: who founded the Ethereous Society. And he proved himself to 206 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: me in numerous ways, and one of the main ones 207 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: being the content of the many communications he received from 208 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:31,479 Speaker 1: beings from other planets over a forty three year period consistently. 209 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 1: And I think anyone. I mean, I don't sort of 210 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 1: ask people to take my word for any of this, 211 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:40,199 Speaker 1: or even take doctor King's word for it. I mean, 212 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 1: look at you can look into it, you can form 213 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 1: your own conclusions. But having sort of become involved, I've 214 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: also come across so much information. I mean, I'll give 215 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: you an example that I came across just yesterday, and George, 216 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: I was looking to prepare for this interview today. I 217 00:12:55,960 --> 00:13:00,680 Speaker 1: say yesterday. Actually it's probably well, it's just yesterday your time, 218 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: But it was on Tuesday, and I was looking at 219 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 1: the current NASA website on dark matter and dark energy, 220 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,960 Speaker 1: because we tend to think that scientists now think that 221 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: less than five percent of the matter in the universe 222 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: is visible, so they're really on our page, which they 223 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: didn't used to be. I mean, they are absolutely clear 224 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: that there is such a thing as invisible matter. In fact, 225 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:26,559 Speaker 1: most of the universe is invisible matter. But one particular 226 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 1: paragraph on the NASA site really interested me, and I'll 227 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: just read a little bit of it if I may 228 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: appreciate another explanation for dark energy. It says is that 229 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: it is a new kind of dynamical energy, fluid or field, 230 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 1: something that fills all of space, but something whose effect 231 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 1: on the expansion of the universe is the opposite of 232 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,560 Speaker 1: that of matter and normal energy. Some theorists have named 233 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: this quintessence after the fifth element of the Greek philosophers. 234 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: Now I mentioned that George is the fifth element of 235 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: the Greek philosophers is ether. In fact, our society is 236 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:11,959 Speaker 1: named after that Greek word aete r or we're etherius. 237 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 1: That is really the basis of alchemy, It's the basis 238 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 1: even perhaps more importantly, of yoga philosophy, the concept of prana, 239 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: the concept of g and so even on a Nassa's site, 240 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: and I think this is wonderful thing. You have a 241 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:31,920 Speaker 1: move or a suggestion anyway, of the need to move 242 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: towards these mystical or spiritual concepts in order to explain 243 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: matter in the universe and in terms of UFOs their 244 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: ability to disappear. The concept that Helen Sharman came up 245 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:49,160 Speaker 1: of invisible aliens, that was pretty unity. It was interesting 246 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: and unique for her to say that, wasn't it. It 247 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: really was, and it really struck me. And it's absolutely 248 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: in line with certainly what Dot King was saying when 249 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: he started our organization in nineteen fifty five, and I 250 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 1: think was a coming together. I mean, even you can. 251 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: You can look at a more orthodox organization like the 252 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 1: Catholic Church and you'll find the late Cardinal I'm sorry, 253 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: Monsignor Balducci, who was very close. I'm sure you've covered 254 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: him before, but he looked at the possibility of beings 255 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: with less material substance than ourselves. Another key phrase from 256 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: a very different quarter. And you know, I know the 257 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: Pope has offered to baptize aliens. I don't think there's 258 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: a cue for fourth that, but in a way, it's 259 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 1: a good thing. They're opening up the door to this 260 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: possibility and everyone needs to move I think in that direction. 261 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: I don't think one can answer the great spiritual or 262 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: scientific questions now without addressing life on other planets. Since 263 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:58,320 Speaker 1: all this has been going on, the media coverage is 264 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 1: still a little questionable with regards to UFOs, don't you 265 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: think I couldn't agree more? And may I give an 266 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: example of this. On Sunday that's just gone two days ago, 267 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 1: the biggest selling newspaper in Britain, and actually I once 268 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: wrote a front page about an encounter between the equity 269 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: of the of the Duke of Edinburgh, the husband of 270 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: the Queen, with an alien intelligence, which is on the 271 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 1: front page of this paper is called The Sun. But 272 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: I noticed on Sunday they had something like nine whole 273 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 1: pages about our Prince Harry and Meghan. Oh my god, yeah, 274 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: it was everywhere. I don't know whether she's hit the 275 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: news there or they has she's hid some of our 276 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: cable outlets and stuff like that. So I had to 277 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 1: go all the way through to page fourteen, having gone 278 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: through these whole pages about this, to find a tiny 279 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 1: little article just about three inches long, which actually revealed 280 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 1: the fact that the US Navy has admitted they've got 281 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,919 Speaker 1: secret footage of a UFO encounter. And I think that 282 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 1: illustrates your very point, George. I mean, no, the media 283 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,400 Speaker 1: still haven't caught up. Thank goodness for programs like well 284 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 1: your program I think is absolutely crucial in our world. 285 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: Listen to more Coast to Coast AM every weeknight at 286 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: one am Eastern, and go to Coast to Coast am 287 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:29,880 Speaker 1: dot com for more
