우리는 숨 막히는 발견의 문턱에 서 있는가? 그렇다, 나는 그렇다고 믿는다! 에디 리켄배커 선장의 말을 인용하자면, "너무나 많은 훌륭한 사람들이 비행접시를 보았기에 우리가 그것들을 단순히 환각으로 치부할 수는 없다." 19세기와 20세기는 수많은 놀라운 발견을 낳았는데, 특히 무시무시한 원자폭탄이 그러하며, 또한 많은 경우에 이전에 가지고 있던 "물질은 파괴될 수 없다"와 같은 신념을 버려야 했다. 오늘날의 평범한 일반인조차도 교육 시설의 증가와 모든 종류의 문학에 대한 접근 덕분에, 모든 형태의 생명체가 "에너지"로 구성되어 있으며, 이 에너지가 어떻게든 우주와 같은 어떤 형태의 맥동하는 궤도 구조와 연결되어 있다는 것을 아주 잘 알고 있다. 비록 무한히 작은 규모일지라도 말이다. 그러므로, 적어도 나에게는— 어딘가에서—무언가가—누군가가—이 에너지, 즉 에테르적, 전자기적 에너지를—당신이 무엇이라 부르든— 수수께끼를 풀었을 가능성이 충분히 믿을 만하다. 그렇게 멀리 나아갔다면, 엄청난 스트레스와 압력을 견딜 수 있는 요소들이 주어진다면, "비행접시"로 알려진 것의 추진이 가능해진다는 결론이 나온다. 태양, 달, 그리고 우리 지구 사이에, 그리고 아마도 다른 행성 간 및 어쩌면 성간 천체들 사이에도 자기력선이 존재한다는 것이 알려져 있다. 따라서 어떤 형태의 항공기나 접시가 인력과 척력을 제어할 수 있다면, 결코 서로 닿지 않는 이 자기력선은 완벽한 고속도로를 형성하여 빛의 속도로, 그리고 아마도 훨씬 더 빠르게 이동할 수 있을 것이다. 또한 이러한 소위 "접시"들이 직각으로 회전할 수 있는 능력을 설명할 수 있는데, 이러한 알려진 자기파가 모든 방향으로 방출되기 때문이다. 그러므로, 거리의 평범한 사색가의 관점에서 나는 말한다. "나는 비행접시가 존재한다고 믿으며, 다가오는 세월이 맨텔 선장, 케네스 아놀드, 그리고 이 분야의 수많은 다른 선구자들을 정당화할 것이다." 결론적으로, 국내외의 모든 IFSB 회원들에게 말하고 싶다. "계속해서 좋은 일을 하고, 무엇보다도, 무지한 소위 다수의 조롱과 비웃음에 실망하거나, 낙담하거나, 현혹되지 마라." 다가오는 새해에 모든 것이 최고이기를! 형제처럼, E. L. 플런켓 신비한 비행체 게일 스프라그 어둡고 신비로운 우주의 깊은 곳에서, 엄청난 속도로 이상하게 생긴 비행체가 나타났다. 그들의 항로는 정확했다, 태양으로부터 세 번째 행성, 그들의 명령: 임무가 완료될 때까지 돌아오지 마라. 그들은 내려왔고, 일부는 내렸다. "24시간 안에 돌아와," 사령관이 정찰병에게 말했다. 시간은 빨리 흘렀고, 모두 돌아왔다. 비행체는 떠났고, 그들이 배운 모든 것을 싣고 있었다. 결정이 내려졌다, 다시는, 이 작은 행성에 착륙하지 않으리라. 전쟁, 부패, 편견, 탐욕이, 이 행성을 모든 행성 중 최악으로 만들었다고 모두 동의했다. 저 너머에 빅터 루트 우주 저 너머에 나의 운명이 있다. 저 너머, 구름 너머; 바람이 아직 불지 않은 곳, 인간이 아직 가지 않은 곳; 그곳이 내가 방랑하고 싶은 곳이다.
Are we on the verge of a breath-taking discovery? Yes, I believe we are! To quote Captain Eddie Rickenbacker, "Too many good men have seen Flying Saucers for us to dismiss them lightly as hallucinations." The nineteenth and twentieth centuries have produced a number of astonishing dis- coveries notably the dreaded atom bomb, and also has had to discard in many cases pre- viously held convictions such as that "matter is indestructible". Even the average layman today, due to increased educational facilities, and access to literature of all kinds, has a very good idea that life in all its forms consists of "energy" and that this energy somehow links back to some form of pulsating orbital structure like unto the universe, be it on an infinitesimally smaller scale. Therefore, it is—to me at least— quite believable that it is possible that somewhere—something—someone—has solved the riddle of this energy, etheric, electromagnetic, call it what you will. Having progressed so far, it follows that given elements capable of withstanding immense stresses and strains, the propulsion of what has become known as the "Flying Saucer" becomes a possibility. It is known that between the Sun, Moon, and our Earth, and presumably between other inter-planetary and possibly interstellar bodies there exists magnetic lines of force, thus if some form of aircraft or saucer has control of the means of attraction and repulsion, these lines of force which by the way never touch one another, would form the perfect highway along which to travel at the speed of light, and probably very much faster. It would also account for the capability of these so-called "saucers" to accomplish right-angled turns, inasmuch that these known magnetic waves emanate in all directions. Therefore, from the point of view of the average thinking man in the street, I say, "I believe the flying saucer does exist, and that the coming years will vindicate such men as Captain Mantell, Kenneth Arnold, and countless other pioneers in this field." In conclusion, may I say to all IFSB members at home and abroad, "carry on the good work, and above all, do not be disappointed, discouraged or deluded by the jeers and sneers of the ignorant so-called majority." The best of everything for the New Year ahead! Yours fraternally, E. L. PLUNKETT MYSTERIOUS CRAFT by Gail Sprague Out of the dark, mysterious, depths of space, Came strange looking craft at a tremen- dous pace. Their course was true, the third planet from the sun, Their orders: Don't return until your task is done. Down they descended, some got out. "Be back in 24 hours," the commander told the scout. Time went fast, all returned. Off went the craft, bearing all they'd learned. The decision was reached, never again, On this small planet they'd ever land. Wars, corruption, prejudice and greed, Made this the worst of all planets, all agreed. OUT THERE by Victor Root Out in space lies my destiny. Out there, beyond the clouds; Where winds have not yet blown, Where man has not yet gone; That's where I long to roam.

우주 저 너머에 나의 운명이 있다. 저 너머, 별들 사이, 밤이 영원히 지배하는 곳, 고독이 위안을 주는 곳; 그곳이 내가 방랑하고 싶은 곳이다.
Out in space lies my destiny. Out there, among the stars, Where night is forever ruling, Where solitude is soothing; That's where I long to roam.

은빛 배를 내게 주오, 행복한 여행을 떠나게, 저 너머, 별들 사이로.
Give me a silver ship, To make the happy trip, Out there, among the stars.
