Here they look through a reddish fog at a planet.

My curiosity further aroused, I watched the other
screens, but they indicated no problems. The sphere
from the river was returning towards us, and the
sphere on the hill retracted its tube, moved a
little higher and lowered the tube again, along
with a second cylinder above the sphere. I had
guessed, of course, that the astronauts were
collecting samples of soil, water and air. Being in
Astral body, I couldn't ask Thao any questions; in
any case, she seemed quite busy conferring with
two of the hostesses. The spheres began climbing
towards us and were soon ready to be "reabsorbed"
by our spacecraft.
When the operation was complete, Thao and the
two astronauts mentioned took their places
opposite their respective desks. Instantly, the
images we received on the panel and screens
changed completely.
I understood we were leaving when each one
took her place. I observed that all the
astronauts had a similar posture in their
seats, which intrigued me. I later learned
that a force field restrained them exactly
as a security harness would have restrained
a stuntman on Earth.
The suns illuminated the planet through a
reddish fog. We had left by then, and I
assumed we were following the contour of the
planet, at the same altitude. In fact, we
could see a desert-like area passing by,
dissected by dry riverbeds that sometimes
crossed each other at right angles. It
occurred to me they might be canals, or at
least had been man made.
The panel revealed images of a town
apparently intact, then it disappeared and
the screen went blank. The vessel had
obviously gained speed in flying over the
planet, as the images on the smaller
screens, showing a lake or inland sea,
flashed by quickly. Suddenly, several
exclamations were heard and we immediately
slowed down. The panel was turned on and
presented a close-up of the lake. We
stopped.
We could clearly see a ****tion of the
coast and, beyond some large rocks by the
lake, we could make out cube-like structures
which I imagined to be habitations. As
soon as we had stopped, the spheres began
their operations again, just as they had
earlier.

Part 5 of 5.

A Long Time Ago. Feb. 29, 2008.
This should be part 6 of the material but we will
call it Part 1 of the second of the site of this
material.
This talks about ants the size of cows.
..........................................................
..........................................................
part2 of the material:
We received some excellent shots taken from one
of the spheres that hovered above the beach at a height
I judged to be 40 to 60 meters from the ground. Its tube
extended right to the shore. Very clearly, it
transmitted a scene of a group of human beings... Indeed,
at first sight, they were identical to people found on
Earth.
We had a very close view. In the middle of the panel
appeared the face of a woman of uncertain age. She had
brown skin, with long black hair that fell to her
b-easts. As we could see on another screen, she was
quite n-ked. Only her face appeared to be deformed
- she was Mongoloid.
When I saw her, I didn't realize she was deformed,
I simply assumed we had to contend with a r-ce of
humans only slightly different from our own - as
science fiction writers like to describe them - all
twisted, with big ears or such like. Still, we had
other shots and, in this group, the men and women
seemed to resemble the Polynesian ra-e.
It was, however, obvious that more than half of
these people were either deformed or eaten away by
what appeared to be leprosy.
They were looking towards the sphere and
gesticulating, appearing to be greatly agitated.
Many more were emerging from the cubic constructions
which proved to be their habitations, and on which I
will elaborate a little.
These structures closely resembled the
"blockhaus" of the Second World W-r, to which
had been added very thick chimneys (installed,
I supposed, for the ventilation of the
buildings) which only seemed to rise about
one meter above the ground. These blockhaus
were all built with the same orientation and
the people emerging from them, did so by
openings on the sides which were in shadow...
Without warning, I felt myself drawn
backwards away from the panel.
Rapidly, I passed through several partitions
until I found myself once again, in the cabin
where my physical being lay stretched out on
the bunk, just as I had left it.
Instantly, everything was completely black.
How well I remember the unpleasant sensation
that followed! My limbs felt like lead and
when I tried to move them, it was as if I
was paralysed. I could not understand what
prevented me from moving. I must confess I
panicked a little and wished with all my
heart that I might leave my physical body
again, but I couldn't do that either.
I don't know how much time elapsed before
the cabin gradually became suffused with the
most restful blue-green light. Finally Thao
entered, wearing a different suit.
"I am sorry to have made you wait, Michel,
but just as your physical body recalled you,
it was impossible for me to come and help
you."
"Don't apologise, I understand perfectly,"
I interrupted, "but I believe I have a problem
- I can't move. I'm sure something in me is
disconnected."
She smiled and put her hand just beside
mine, undoubtedly operating a control
mechanism, and immediately I was freed.
"Again, a thousand apologies, Michel. I
should have pointed out to you the spot
where the control cell for the security
harness is found.
All the seats, beds or bunks are
equipped with them, and they are automatically
activated when occupied if there is the least
possibility of danger.
"When the vessel arrives in a dangerous
area, the three security computers cause the
closing of the force fields, to use their
proper name. When the danger has passed they
automatically release them.
"At the same time, if we do want to be
released in a zone deemed dangerous, or even
if we simply want to change position, we
have only to pass a hand or just a finger in
front of the cell and the force field is
immediately neutralised. When we return to our
seats, we will be automatically restrained
again.
"Now, I'm going to ask you to go and change
- I'l show you where.
In the room, you will see an open trunk where
you can put your clothes - in fact, all that
you are wearing apart from the gl*****. You'll
find a suit there, which you are to put on
before meeting me back here."
Thao bent down and taking my hand, she
helped me up. I was really quite stiff. I went
into the small room she had pointed out,
undressed completely and put on the suit,
which fitted me perfectly. This was surprising,
given that, in spite of my 178 centimetres in
height, I was a dwarf compared with my
hostesses.
A short time later, back in the cabin, Thao
handed me something in the form of a bracelet,
which was actually a pair of enormous gl*****.
A little like motorcycle goggles, they were
strongly tinted. At her request, I put them on,
but to do so, I was obliged to remove my own
gl*****, as they would have been crushed by
this larger pair. They fitted exactly into the
shape of my eye sockets.
"A last precaution," she said.
Lifting her hand towards the partition, she
in some way released a certain mechanism, for
the intense light reappeared and I felt the
intensity in spite of the strong gl*****. I
was again aware of the current of cool air.
The lights went out. The air current could
no longer be felt, but Thao did not move,
appearing to be waiting for something.
Eventually a voice was heard and she removed
my large tinted gl*****. I replaced them
with my own and she asked that I follow her.
We took the same route as when I followed
her in Astral body, and we found ourselves
again, in the command room.
(from page 18 Thiaoouba Prophecy)
One of the older astronauts (I say older
but perhaps I should instead say "more
serious" as they all appeared to be about
the same age) signalled briefly to Thao
who took me to a seat in front of the panel
and asked that I stay there. She quickly
rejoined her colleague and I realized
they were very busy.
As for me, I began checking whether I
could in fact free myself from the force
field. As soon as I sat down, I was
effectively plastered to my seat - a
feeling I did not like at all.
Moving my hand slightly, I found I
was immediately liberated for as long
as my hand remained in front of the cell.
The panel relayed an image of about 500
people standing on the shore and quite
near the "blockhaus". Thanks to the
close-ups possible with our cameras, we
had an excellent view of these people, who
were quite na-ed, from the oldest down to
the youngest. Again, I could see many of
them were either deformed or s****ting ugly
wounds. They were all gesturing towards
the spheres taking sand and soil samples,
but no one approached. The strongest
looking men were holding what appeared to
be machetes or sabres. They seemed to be
watching something.
I felt pressure on my shoulder and turned
round, surprised. It was Thao. She smiled
at me and I clearly remember appreciating,
for the first time, the beauty and
nobility of her face.
I have already mentioned her hair, which
was long and silky, golden-blond in color,
which fell to her shoulders and framed a face
that was perfectly oval in shape. She had a
large, slightly protrudingforehead.
Her blue-mauve eyes and long curled lashes
would have been the envy of many women on our
planet. Her eyebrows curved upwards, similar
to the wings of a seagull, adding a unique
charm. Under her eyes, which sparkled and
sometimes teased, was her nose,
well-pro****tioned and slightly flat at the
bottom, which accentuated a s-nsual mouth.
When she smiled, she revealed perfect teeth
- so perfect, one could believe they were
false. (This would have surprised me.) The
chin, well-shaped but slightly angular,
suggested a wilful determination that was
somewhat masculine, but this did not detract
from its charm. A faint shadow of hair above
her upper lip could have spoiled this perfect
face, were it not blond.
"I see you already know how to free yourself
from the force field, Michel."
I was about to reply, when an almost general
exclamation made us turn our eyes to the panel.
The people on the beach were surging back
en masse towards the habitations and dived
inside in one big rush, while a line of men
had been formed armed with sabres or picks,
facing the most incredible "thing" I could
ever have imagined.
A group of red ants, each the size of a cow,
were ru****ng from behind the rocks onto the
beach. They moved quicker than horses in
gallop.
The armed men kept glancing behind, as if
to compare the speed at which the people
scrambled to safety, with the advance of the
ants.
Already, the latter were near - too near...
The men faced them bravely as, with only a
second's hesitation, the first beast attacked.
We could distinguish the mandibles clearly -
each the size of a man's arm. At first, the
creature feigned, enabling the man to strike
with his sabre, but he slashed only air.
Immediately, the mandibles encircled his
waist, severing him cleanly in two. Another
pair of ants helped the first to shred him,
while the rest launched their assault on
the fleeing combatants, gaining rapidly on
them - too rapidly...
From the sphere, an electric-blue beam of
unbearable intensity shot out, just as the
ants were upon the men. The creatures were
struck d-ad, one after the other, with
amazing precision and effectiveness.
Curls of smoke rose from the burnt flesh
of the animals strewn over the ground, their
enormous legs convulsing in a last spasm.
The beam continued its devastation among
the ants, instantly and systematically
annihilating the giant insects. They must
have known instinctively that they could not
match this almost supernatural force and
fled in retreat.
