I have been trying to unravel human mytho-history, which has suffered
from fragmentation and poor translation.

There are indications that some form of civilization capable of
interstallar travel developed on Earth with assistance from afar.
The civilization might have been based around the people we now
call Neandertals.

Then there was a series of global catastrophes, part of the ongoing
extinction event science is starting to recognize. It is likely to
have been caused by supernova Vela.

At least one nearby colony survived and it later rediscovered Earth,
where an inferior neotonized life form (Cro Magnon - Homo sap. ) had
perhaps survived the worst catastrophe of all when the planet was
essentially scorched to a cinder.

The Neandertals of old bear an uncanny resemblance to those giant
hairy now-you-see-em-now-you-dont entities sometimes seen near ufo
landing sites, variously known as Bigfoot, Saskwatch or Yowie/Yahweh.

There are many potential habitats available out there to life forms
sufficiently advanced to genetically engineer themselves to suit the
situation. So we must beware of simplistic solutions. If the common
claim that a hybrid race is being formed between us and them, then
perhaps these "greys" are genetic adaptations of Homo sap or Homo
neandertalis. Or perhaps Homo sap is himself derived from crossing
Homo neandertalis with exotic homiinid descendants whom perhaps we
might call Homo nephilis.

As an interesting aside, the Pleiadies offers a particularly rich
mix of extensive habitats because it is full of young stars formed
from amidst the debris from an ancient supernova. Civilization would
very likely thrive there if it is going to do well anywhere.

And anyway, who says life needs a star to exist? There are other
sources of warmth - chemical and radioactive and gravitational
heat, for starters.

Astronomical observations indicate that most stars have a family of
planets. No reason why that system should be any different, although
it is believed planets are less likely in a twin star system though
I see no reason why worlds could not orbit the common centre of
gravity of *both* stars.

It would be interesting to know the apparent size of these stars
from a hypothetical planet in that system, since many abductees
describe visons of a pair of suns in a sky that is sometimes blue
and more often orange. In one case a "moon" is described with blue
seas and green continents, so continuing advances might reveal that
thirty-some light years away there is a large low density planet
with a moon that is massive enough to retain seas and an atmosphere.

I disagree with the view that sheer age is a major determinating
factor of the likelihood of civilization. The richness and volume of
the habitat is probably much more important. If interstellar travel
is indeed possible then a great variety of types must have been
coming and going about the entire galaxy for a very long time.

How would "aliens" reach our solar system from so far away? It
recently struck me that in a number of ufo incidents a blue beam
has been employed that apparently moves humanoids to and from
the craft. In other cases hovering ufo's have been seen pointing
a similar beam up into space, suggesting a greater range. Then
at about the time of Chant's "meteorites" large beams were seen
emanating from the moon. So perhaps these beams can have a range
of light years.

It is about a thousand years since the star Sirius at 10 light years
turned from red back to white, indicating that debris between our
sun and the dog star had at last cleared away. Perhaps even more
recently the interstellar medium between our solar system and the
Zeta reticuli system has cleared up enough to allow the "gods" of
old to return to our solar system.

Please excuse me if I generate any cognitive dissonance with this
posting. This synthesis is not the product of idle fantasy but the
result of many years of careful consideration. In <1OO lines I can
do no more than provide a bare outline of the results of my work in
this area.

The retainer I am sure to be offered as a result of this posting
will no doubt enable me to put all this and several dozen equally
interesting concepts into book form.  ; )

Sincere regards to ALL
