SUBJECT: RUSSIAN UFO SIGHTINGS FILE: UFO1457 PART 1 The following is a translation of an article published by EL NACIONAL [a weekly newspaper written in Spanish and (I think) edited in New York] on 12-18-91. "EXTRATERRESTRIALS ARE HERE, AMONG US. Research made by Cromos magazine shows that extraterrestrials are in contact with humans since 40 years ago. It seems that what Colombian peasant Luis Roberto Rodriguez said about his being abducted and taken to the unseen side of the moon might be true, according to explanations given to Cromos magazine by the French astrophysicist Jean Pierre Petit, research director of the [French] National Center of Scientific Research. In his book "Journey to the Frontier of Science," this scientist says that some ETs have come from planet UMMO and have been visiting us since 40 years ago. They have had contact with a group of people on earth who receive their messages through regular mail. After studying this mail received in the Spanish town of Albacete for several years, Professor Petit claims that all started in 1949 when these beings from Ummo received a message from Earth in Morse code that traveled throughout the universe for 15 years. As soon as they got that message the astronomers of Ummo, a planet that orbits around a star known in Earth as Wolf 424, tried to decipher it but they did not succeed. That was the reason why they organized an expedition to investigate the existence of life in our planet. It took them six months to get to Earth because, as they explained in their letters, they have technological means to pass from a universe to another. They believe that space sometimes tends to deform and to bend temporarily. They took advantage of these factors and using a system to reverse matter's atomic structure, their ships reduced the span of the journey to Earth. It was precisely at dawn of March 28, 1950 when three of their ships landed on a Digne region's mountain, at the south of France. Since then, these beings from Ummo, a planet located within the Virgin's constellation at 15 light years from our solar system, have learned to live with human beings and to communicate with them, specially with people of the Iberian Peninsula [Spain and Portugal,] using the mail system. "Throughout the following years they became adjusted to our planet and settle down in other parts of it to study humans' behavior and the history of the planet," affirms Jean Pierre Petit. The physical description that the Colombian peasant made of the ETs who abducted him, match that given of Ummo's beings by Petit. They are tall, blond, fair skinned, greenish eyes and human like beings and they can easily be mistaken as human beings. The only difference, says Petit, is in their voice. It is a nasal sound which has to do with a congenital deficiency that they correct using an electronic device. According to their communications, Ummo's civilization has reached a high standard. They say that their planet in the past went through the same problems that humans face now. [However, at the present time] all of them work for a common welfare, each of them has a vital itinerary since birth, according to the individual's potential. "They have a metaphysical dimension, they believe that Earth and its inhabitants form a whole that should be respected. This is their ethical reason for not revealing the existence of life in other planets. This may cause considerable troubles," explains Petit.
