ZETA RETICULI - This civilization is intimately connected with Earth. Deneb Adige Any interpretation of the Betty Hill map must retain the logic of these routes (i.e. Language links are at the top of the page across from the title. Chiron Sign Tables 1920-2045 (Times given: Eastern Time - ET) (Calculated for time zone 5 hours - Eastern) May 24, 1926. 17 58 The Zeta Reticuli Greys that we will refer to as type A's are one of the more common Greys reported. A lot of the published trigonometric parallaxes on stars beyond 30 light-years are not as accurate as they could be, according to Kyle Cudworth of Yerkes Observatory. 21 51 100 They originally developed in the Zeta Reticuli binary star system, which is about 39 light years from Earth. Denebola Algol, Alcyone The fourth planet of Zeta II Reticuli was the Greys' "home world", however Zeta II Reticuli is a star lacking in sufficient carbon content to allow for the natural development of carbon-based life, so the Greys must have colonized that world sometime in the past. A guide to the Zeta Reticuli star system, facts about the binary pair, and how the stars became involved in one of the most popular UFO tales of recent decades. Look it up now! Capricornus Cerberus But we may be wrong in our estimate of life development time. Noctua 210 Zeta Reticuli might sound familiar as it's been part of modern UFO lore almost since the beginning, dating back to the first reported alien abduction case. Phact But limited though this parameter is, it is the only one we have. Binary Stars [8][19] The two stars are somewhat deficient in metals, having only 60% of the proportion of elements other than hydrogen and helium as compared to the Sun. Sadachbia This debris disk interpreted as an analogy to the Kuiper belt with a semi-major axis of 100AU and a temperature of 3040 K.[28], However, observations with ALMA from October and November 2017 revealed that the structure observed by Herschel shows no common proper motion with Zeta Reticuli. He says the catalog was compiled with extensive research and care over many years. Deneb Kaitos It's been a designated star for like 200 years. Zubenelgenubi 240, 100 Because this is a potentially troublesome area for our objective, we will eliminate all close and moderately close pairs or systems of multiple stars. [4][20] For reasons that remain uncertain, 1 has an anomalously low abundance of beryllium. Designated Zeta 1 and Zeta 2 Reticuli, the two solar analogs are slightly smaller, less massive and less luminous than the Sun. Betty Hill famously drew a star map from memory, in 1964, under psychoanalysis. 22 24 130 22 05 The precession rate is 1 per 72 years or 0.838 per year. The sun is a main sequence star along with most of the other stars in this part of the Milky Way galaxy. Draco Deneb Algedi, Enif 23 28 110 Fixed Stars in Medical Astrology 04 03 (This catalog is often called the Gliese catalog pronounced glee-see after its principal author, Wilhelm Gliese.) 100 26 10, 00 00 But this is much more than a retelling of a famous UFO incident; it's an astronomical detective story that at times hovers on that hazy line that separates science from fiction. 19 01 If Jupiter was 80 times more massive it would be an M6 red dwarf star. Alwaid 230 After the sun sets on Utah's alpine mountains or red rock, the visual splendor continues in the form of star-filled night skies and a light show compliments of Mother Nature. ), (While planets around Barnards Star havent been entirely ruled out, Van de Kamps planets have since been disproven and indeed, no large gas giants exist in the system according to the most recent research. The other 2/3 are composed of stars not visible to you, on Earth, but nevertheless affecting the gravitational pull of the other stars and planets in the system. 03 11 Both stars are solar analogs that have characteristics similar to those of the Sun. 03 46 Serpens (Most of Van de Kamps later career was spent fighting back against those who said hed determined the Barnards Star planets in error. Native American Pleiades Myths 240, 140 Pavo Zeta Reticuli is a wide binary star system in the southern constellation of Reticulum. According to several astronomers who specialize in stellar positions, it probably is. He believes the Gliese catalog "is the most complete and comprehensive source available". Zeta 1 would have long ago been the focus of religions, mythology and astrology if it were in earthly skies. This seems like a tall order. Until I realized that it was a small attachment, presumably of the eyepiece of the telescope, I wondered why La Caille would want to immortalize it, and WHY the rhomboid shape?? 140 Castra 210 And almost all A stars are rapid rotators too. Ridpath, Star Tales, 1988. Bullinger, The Witness of the Stars, 1893. The fact that the entire incident hinges on a map drawn under less than normal circumstances certainly keeps us from drawing a firm conclusion. Under an aggressive exterior, the natives have a deeply nurturing quality and have great capacities to support others. It had seemingly been detected due to observations of the star's wobble (which can often be attributed to the gravitational pull of a planet in orbit around a star), but this was eventually retracted. So far, we have assumed all stars have planets, just as our sun does. Acrux Or perhaps a tiny cloth to polish the lens?? 12 46 A professor of plant physiology, his biology expertise has been turned to astronomy on several occasions while studying the possibility of biological organisms existing on Mars. 05 18 130 Card #33 | Zeta Reticuli (Past, 1st Era) | Desperation Using the example of the Zeta Reticuli species, they refused to acknowledge the emotional body to the point of creating a species crisis. The weird circumstances that we have dubbed "The Zeta Reticuli Incident" sound like they come straight from the UFO pages in one of those tabloids sold in every supermarket. Now we are ready to return to the map drawn by Betty Hill. While we at BBC Sky at Night Magazine don't pay much heed to tales of alien abductions that have come to the fore since the 1960s (in fact, we do recommend a read of our list of things commonly mistaken for UFOs), it is at least a curious chapter in the Zeta Reticuli story and an explanation as to why many people outside of practical astronomy are interested in the stellar system. 08 52 For reasons that will soon become clear we can remove these classes of stars from our discussion and concentrate on the main sequence stars. (These are often called red dwarf stars, and are among the most abundant in the universe.). This article chronicles how an unusual star map has led to new investigations of specific nearby stars that might harbor Earth-like planets - and possibly advanced forms of life. In these observations, no significant flux has been detected around 2, showing that the alleged debris disk is not real, but rather a case of background confusion. Canis Minor I wasnt around on Astronomys staff in the 1970s. The flares have the same intensity as those of our sun, but when you put that type of flare on a little star it spells disaster for a planet that is within, say, 30 million miles. "Where are you on the map 7" the humanoid asks Betty. Aldebaran She theorized that the Hill map contained only local stars since no concentration of stars was evident. Hyginus, Astronomica, @ 10 AD. Seginus Ensis In 1961 Betty Hill's abductors told her that they were from this Binary System Zeta Reticuli, it was not yet discovered by Astronomers on Earth, so, how coul. In Vedic astrology, the degrees of 26 Aries to 10 Taurus are ruled by the Krittika, or Pleiades. 03 13 23 52 20 57 Marjorie Fish wrote a letter to Betty Hill dated October 7, 1972 source University of New Hampshire State archives), and she draws her Zeta Reticuli Interpretation set to Betty Hill's star map. But then, we don't even know for certain if there is anybody at all out there anywhere -despite the Hill map and pronouncements of the most respected scientists. Armus 130 11 58 200, Arabic Lunar Manions The couple continue their journey home oblivious of the abduction. 220 The reality is that the Zeta Reticuli system is a fascinating place where I'd expect to find advanced life. Gemini 18 38 The complete account of the psychiatric examination from which the details of the event emerged is related in John G. Fuller's The Interrupted Journey (Dial Press, 1966 ), where we read that after the extensive psychiatric examination, Simon concluded that the Hills were not fabricating the story. If we go west, all we can visit is Kansas City and Denver. Fish's account of that meeting: "On Aug. 4, 1969, Betty Hill discussed the star map with me. The planet has to be the appropriate size so that its gravity doesn't hold on to too much atmosphere (like Jupiter) or too little (like Mars). 15 05 Marjorie Fish reasoned that if the stars in the Hill map corresponded to a pattern of real stars perhaps something like we just developed, only from an aliens viewpoint it might be possible to pinpoint the origin of the alleged space travelers. Vega Phoenix 240 If some of the star names on the Fish map sound familiar, they should. 100 29 22, Kerb Camelopardalis Although this section amounts to only 13 percent of the entire sky, it contains 15 of the 46 stars, or 33 percent of the total. To get more information about the map she decided to visit Betty Hill in the summer of 1969. The fact . It was to be drawn only if she could remember it accurately, and she was not to pay attention to what she was drawing which puts it in the realm of automatic drawing. This means astronomers have observed variations of at least a few percent in the star's light output. 240 [23] 2 is more sedate, showing a much lower level of activity[24] with a ~7.9-year cycle, which may indicate it is in a Maunder Minimum state. There is none better." [17], 1 has an intermediate level of magnetic activity in its chromosphere[22] with an erratic variability. Asterion 200 Acrab Not exactly rock solid evidence, but sometimes some back of the envelope deduction will do. Octans It seems unlikely. ), The 16 stars in the stellar configuration discovered by Marjorie Fish are compared with the map drawn by Betty Hill in the diagram on page 7. Antares Dimensional Perspectives: Exist in 4D and some are evolving into 5D Appearance: These look like the gray alien image so commonly known today. Sunset at Devil's Tower in Wyoming, USA. Smaller planets around Neptune mass or below are still possible.). They are told they will forget the abduction portion of the incident. 140 210 15 17 12 18 Taurus Centaurus In the galactic coordinate system, the [U, V, W] components of the space velocity for this system are equal to [70.2, 47.4, +16.4] km/s for 1 and [69.7, 46.4, +16.8] km/s for 2. Soul Weather Astrology & Certification; Syl Carson, Founder. Zubeneschamali Where does all this leave us? 140 Pollux (Friedman is rather well-known. Perseus the lines would link stars that would be worth visiting). Copula If they are farther out, they have frozen oceans and no life. This change, which vastly increases a star's energy output, can occur at various times depending on the star's mass. 130 13 51 23 28 100 Hercules Retrograde motion lessens the effect of fixed stars. 06 52 "But lt lS not unequivocal evidence," he cautions. How many of these thousand-odd stars would we include for such a voyage and which direction would we go? Long ago our satellite stopped rotating and now has one side permanently turned toward Earth. Later, after newer data was compiled, she determined that the binary stars within the pattern were too close together to support life; so as a true skeptic, she issued a statement that she now felt that the correlation was unlikely, Yankee Skeptic wrote. 01 31 The map indicates that the Sun has been "visited occasionally". (It sounds very much like a reflective hologram.) In essence, then, we assume their home planet must be very Earthlike. The fact that the pattern is less of a "good fit" using data from other sources leads Kretsch and others to wonder what new observations would do. 120 Cursa Manilius, Astronomica, @ 50 AD. 22 27 The stars were tinted and glowed. [Isaiah 40:26 ], 01 02 We are forced to "scratch" all stars suspected or proven to be variable. In the December 1974 issue of Astronomy, the then-editors published a lead feature story titled The Zeta Reticuli Incident.The well-known astronomy popularizer Terence Dickinson, then Astronomys Editor, penned the article. It is the French Rticule or Rhombe, the German Rhomboidische Netz, and the Italian Reticolo. (These stars can last on a scale of trillions of years though they may soon fade into blue dwarfs, none of which exist yet.) 15 42 More will be said about this group in later chapters. 140 100 To date, no exoplanet has been confirmed around either star, which brings us nicely onto one of the reasons Zeta Reticuli is known popularly outside of astronomy circles. Asellus Australis The purpose of the trip will be to search for intelligent life on planets that may be in orbit around these stars. Your beginner astrology chart is included: SEE EXAMPLE. 130 26 41 19 26 130 Are there creatures inhabiting a planet of Zeta 2 Reticuli? 16 50 But it did. Let's suppose we wanted to make our own map of a trip to the stars. Skat Sagittarius It had a drawstring at the top to close it up. PresentationThe Zeta Reticulans or EBE survivor of the Roswell UFO Crash in early July 1947 claimed he was from a . Anyway that's where things were in 1966 when Marjorie Fish, an Ohio schoolteacher, amateur astronomer and member of Mensa, became involved. (Salisbury is also noted for his work promoting creationism.). Lets find out why. They are each fifth magnitude stars barely visible to the unaided eye located in the obscure southern constellation Reticulum. The unique aspect of the Hills' abduction is that they remembered virtually nothing of the incident. Please dont, was his only response. This is a way of getting at repressed or forgotten material and can result in unusual accuracy. Under hypnosis, Betty and Barney began to relay their story, which detailed their abduction onboard a strange spacecraft and conversations with non-human lifeforms. Coxa Zeta Reticuli is a wide binary system composed of two yellow G-class stars, both of which have a visual magnitude of 5.22. We don't want to waste our time and efforts we only want to go to stars that we would think would have a high probability of having planets harboring advanced life forms. Gliese 67 is believed to have a habitable planet. Menkalinan, Tejat Prior Zaniah 240 140 Thuban Someday, perhaps soon, we will know. "This must be the next step in attempting to evaluate the map.. The mintaka starseed's astrological sign is Pisces (astrology) and Aquarius (star system origin). The plot of all 46 candidate stars reveals a clumping in the direction of the constellations Cetus and Eridanus. [15] 1 Reticuli has an apparent magnitude of 5.52,[2] placing it on the border between 5th- and 6th-magnitude stars. Mar 25, 1927 6:18 AM Chiron enters Taurus. 210 The two stars, Zeta 1 (1) Reticuli and Zeta 2 (2) Reticuli are located just over 39 lightyears from Earth and are separated from each other by a distance of at least 3,750 Astronomical Units (AU), where 1 AU is the average distance between Earth and the Sun. 220 Morse, The Living Stars, 1988. 28 06, 03 09 Her wild enthusiasm for her newest Star Map creation is obvious, and she writes the time of the letter as 3:30 am. 18 34 He held his head in his hands. 12 23 140 Polaris Zeta 1 lies at a distance of 39.27 light years, while Zeta 2 is 39.29 light years away. This would. It takes a lot of stellar fuel to emit vast quantities of light and heat. 130 18 31 The method of their release supposedly accounted for the amnesia, which was apparently broken only by counterhypnosis.". Al Pherg [25], This star system belongs to the Zeta Herculis Moving Group of stars that share a common motion through space, suggesting that they have a common origin. A large Jupiter type planet exists in Gliese 86. (Many models maintain that there could be a crescent of hability or have enough atmospheric movement to distribute heat around the planet like Hadley cells on Earth.) Dabih By various lines of statistical reasoning he concludes that the chances of finding a match among 16 stars of a specific spectral type among the thousand-odd stars' nearest the sun is "at least 1,000 to 1 against". Grey aliens, also referred to as Zeta Reticulans, Roswell Greys, or Grays, are purported extraterrestrial beings. Two years after the incident, the couple are still bothered by the missing two hours, and Barney's ulcers are acting up. (Today, most indications of Saunders lasting legacy are in the UFO community.). Is the Gliese catalog the best available data source? Aries This group of stars is a natural for exploration when we achieve interstellar flight. Because the stars are similar to our Sun, if an Earth-like planet were in orbit around the stars at the right distance, liquid water might be able to pool on that planet's surface, and the conditions might be right for life as we know it to flourish. 100 What makes these stars really interesting is that, relatively speaking, they are much like our own Sun, making them so-called solar analogs and of interest to astronomers who can compare them to our Solar System's host star. A faint pair of stars, 220 trillion miles away, has been tentatively identified as the "home base" of intelligent extraterrestrials who allegedly visited Earth in 1961. It lies north of Hydrus and the Greater Cloud, containing thirty-four stars from 3.3 to 7th magnitudes. 23 33, 01 52 (Umm, no.) These other 2/3 of the bulk of the star system are only evident by the . This point of view is shared by Jeffrey L. Kretsch, an undergraduate student who is working under the advisement of J. Allen Hynek at Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill. Like Steggert, he too checked Marjorie Fish's pattern and found no error in the work. "In most fields of investigation where similar statistical methods are usod, that degree of congruence is rather persuasive," concludes Saunders. A short time later a UFO group leaks a distorted version of the story to the press and the whole, thing blows up. 23 50 The star "behind" the two components of Zeta Reticuli is Zeta Tucanae. With all these facts at hand we're now ready to tackle the first part of the detective story. 140 Coma Berenices There is another more compelling reason for eliminating stars of class F4 and brighter. Al Hecka 29 23, 00 24 Mitchell noted an important and previously unknown fact first pointed out by Ms. We still havent found it. 26 56 200 In Vedic astrology, the degrees of 26 Aries to 10 Taurus are ruled by the Krittika, or Pleiades. The Zeta Reticuli System contained two yellow dwarf stars, designated Zeta1 Reticuli and Zeta2 Reticuli, and was located at a distance of roughly 39.16 light-years (12.01 parsecs) Trailward from the Sol System. (Trade routes that would take decades or centuries if we assume the craft obey the rules of relativity, or even the notion that these stars have habitable planets. She doesn't know, so the subject is dropped. This hypothesis is based on a strange, almost bizarre series of events mixing astronomical research with hypnosis, amnesia, and alien humanoid creatures. Top diagram is a copy of the map Betty Hill drew, allegedly a duplicate of one she saw inside an extraterrestrial vehicle. In 2002, 1 was examined at an infrared wavelength of 25m, but no indication of an excess of infrared radiation was found. ), Using information on the same 15 stars from the Royal Observatory catalog (Annals #5), Steggert reports that the pattern does come out differently because of the different data, and Gliese 59 shows the largest variation. John Clark. This model, prepared by Marjorie Fish, shows all the stars located in a vast volume of space extending out about 55 light-years in the direction of Zeta Reticull. "The substantial variation in catalog material is something that must be overcome," says Steggert. Prophetic Fixed Stars, Behenian Fixed Stars Foramen The spectral class letters are part of a system of stellar "fingerprinting" that identifies the main sequence star's temperature and gives clues to its mass and luminosity. Betty did not shift her position while viewing it, so we cannot tell if it would give the same three-dimensional view from all positions or if it would be completely three-dimensional. "To my surprise I found that the pattern that I derived from my program had a close correspondence to the data from Marjorie Fish.". Shortly after the invention of the telescope astronomers would be able to detect . "I can find no major point of quibble with Marjorie Fish's interpretation of the Betty Hill map," says David R. Saunders, a statistics expert at the Industrial Relations Center of the University of Chicago. Two things happened from this absurd tale. The two stars are similar to our sun and separated by 800 billion miles. 140 Although the Hills didn't, several people have lost their jobs after being associated with similarly unusual publicity. If rotational lock has not yet set in, at least rotational retardation would make impossibly long days and nights (as evidenced by Mercury in our solar system. 25 08 While Simon remained sceptical about the prospect of their having been visited by lifeforms from beyond Earth, the psychiatrist would later comment that Barney Hill had undoubtedly experienced an extreme level of trauma, similar to what he had seen while treating war veterans.
