{{PAUSE=2}}CONCLUSION {{PAUSE=2}} It seems to this publisher that the most fitting conclusion to this report is in fact a letter to Wendelle Stevens, answering some of his very challenging questions and candidly stating her deepest personal convictions on the part of Zitha Rodriguez, the investigative journalist who spent the most time of all people in the world on this case, who befriended Professor Hernandez, when he needed a knowledgeable listening ear, and who carried out extensive interviews with him over years, taking down scores of notebooks full of shorthand dialogue, commentary, and even dictated opinions, statements and memoranda. She also became directly involved in the case she was investigating, when the extraterrestrial woman invited her to accompany the professor on one of the visits to the E.T. ship. Zitha is now finding all doors closed on this strange UFO contact case. The federal investigators refuse to divulge the results of their investigation. The family's private investigators will not release what they know about the case. And between the two investigation efforts, and their searches and confiscation of notes, memoranda and papers left by Professor Hernandez, little survives besides Zitha's stack of shorthand notebooks. This letter dated 11 August 1988 reveals Zitha's true inner feelings about this case, and even a little about the real Zitha herself. There is no doubt that Zitha is personally convinced of the reality and validity of this Mexican UFO contact case. She had come to accept some of the information communicated to the professor by his E.T. contacts, and could understand his deteriorating sense of hopelessness for this planet and its inhabitants. She is concerned that the extraterrestrial woman may be right, and that we have gone too far in our folly, and have made ourselves prey to other less benevolent beings from the depths of space. She thinks our danger is very real and that we must get this word out as soon as possible, so that the public may be forewarned in the hope that we can do something about the forecast situation. (What follows is a translation of Zitha’s letter to Wendelle August 11, 1988) {{PAUSE=2}} Mexico, D.F., 11 August 1988 Esteemed Mr. Wendelle: Excuse me for not having written before, but I have continued investigations concerning the last days of Professor Hernandez. First I want to respond to your kind letters whose answer is behind. With respect to your letter of 8 March, I had told you that I would look for more notes on the writing about Kodiak, but I have found no more than that much I had sent on this detail. I tried again to interview Mrs. Hernandez, wife of the professor, but she wants to know nothing of me and does not want to talk to me. Her children refuse to discuss anything about their father. An investigation continues concerning a suspected murder, and obviously they hate all people who become interested in this case. I went to the National University, but they told me that not one page remained on his (Prof. Hernandez) assignment there since they only save (papers) for five years, after which they are microfilmed and sent to the general archives, but there they do not give out data, unless you carry some express solicitation, and if it is of legal or educational type. I visited lic. Salomon Gutierrez. I had introduced the professor to him in 1979. They were both talking about their mutual experiences when Sr. Salomon, it was, who said he was a contactee, and affirmed having known an extraterrestrial being called GARIBI, who was two meters and fifty centimeters tall. At that time Professor Hernandez wanted to get acquainted with other people who, like he, had had some experience of this kind, and I introduced them. On that date both were conversing about their experiences, though I can tell you that the professor stimulated lic Salomon to speak more about his experiences, limiting himself to listening. Lic. Salomon remembers professor Hernandez very well, and told me that he was available to talk about his chats with him whenever you desire. Concerning a question you asked about, whether the professor had read anything anytime about Meyer, I can tell you that at that time neither he nor I had much knowledge about the UFO phenomenon. I, for example felt really disconcerted when they offered me the directorship of the magazine REVISIA OVNI, because I was ABSOLUTELY IGNORANT about all concerning UFOs (in 1978). One year later I met the professor, but I had searched out the manner of obtaining facts on UFOs, however, I had never obtained information about Meyer, until much time later. I believe that if the professor had known of Meyer, he would have gone directly to Switzerland to meet him, because he was in Denmark in the beginning of the '80s, and also traveled to Paris, thus to him it would not have been difficult to travel there to meet him, but he (the professor) never had any knowledge of him (Meyer). Concerning what Meyer said about his book, coming to Mexico, I never heard of it, more over I don't know that there was any kind of publicity (about it), and it likely would have been sold only in bookstores exclusively for the sale of books by foreigners (if there was one here). Before his experience with Lia, he never read (about such things) due to the fact that in Mexico, there appeared a magazine called DUDA (Doubt), and another titled CONTACIOS EXTRATERRESTRIES. When I asked him why he had not gone to the publishers of those magazines, and why was he telling me, he said he thought that those magazines published only things of fiction, and that he had considered me because I was a journalist and the others no. I asked him many times how one could tell if a person was telling the truth or was lying about his experiences with extraterrestrials. Then he made this observation: "....the emotions reflect it, and through the eyes, look at them directly, while listening to the narrative... and thru the voice, listen for breaks in the words... a real contactee finds it difficult to disguise the emotion, which charges him when he relives his experience... the eyes do not lie." Under this perspective I interviewed at that time various contactees. None of them spoke to me like the professor, including coming to observe in his looks a very special brilliance. I met people who said they were contactees, and who seemed to have learned by memory what they said, and could repeat it time and again... The professor was different every time he narrated some remembered details, things, events, and it was as if reviewing his experience would bring up more interesting things. I remember also having seen him weep one time, of emotion, upon remembering his trips on the ship, and he wrote a small note in his diary, almost the last, which said this: "…once we left the orbit of Earth, I looked at the blue planet and felt as if in some manner, the space that surrounds us had newly conceived me. I felt an injection of vigor inside me, as if suddenly I had been changed into another man. I felt like I had been born again, but not at a physiological level so much as at a mental level. My mind expanded and the concept that I held of the Cosmos grew in such a manner that I felt a little alone before such planetary and my own pride disappeared before such grandiosity. I don't know how to define this exactly, but at that moment it seemed to me that man is not of his own mental dimension. Man is much more than a simple body that only lasts a few years. We have become parasites who gobble up one another, and worse still; devour a planet that does not belong to us." "We destroy not only our exterior, but also our interior because we do not have the courage to look up above and see before us that vast-ness of our own small universe. As thinking beings we have a great opportunity for prodigious reach thorough our minds. We will soon have the great opportunity to encounter an intergalactic society coming all the time closer to us... in fact, they are already here! and we seem indifferent... as if we do not want to acknowledge their existence. Our minds, nevertheless, denies expansion to conceive the knowledge that we must bring to the category of intelligent men, with which these extraterrestrial races could establish relations with easily, but we are losing this opportunity in some corner of our limited brain..." "...for which, though I am only a grain of sand in this immensity of space, I propose to reach a position of mental vibration beyond my own feelings, and finally coming to know how small is the humanity who lives enveloped in a mental greatness that he still does not perceive. How marvelous the universe is... It is a pity that we are losing the opportunity to know infinite new roads" The professor wrote in those last days notes like this, and I felt that in the course of time he had attained a special sensitivity through a cosmic consciousness, concerning the existence of the human being. He came to understand the futility of war and the great lacks, not only economically, but socially as well, affecting the human being. For that, for the grandness of feelings the professor showed in those last days, it pains me to think that people like Meyer, dare to opinion so lightly, and to doubt a man he knows nothing about, nor could he even try to say that the professor is lying. Is it because he doubts his own experience and the possibility that it has existed so long? Is it that he has had no real contact, and for that doubts that others have had them? Because the professor said there are more human beings on the Earth who have had extraterrestrial contacts, and he affirmed that he was not the only one. How did he come to know of one such "Billy" in the manner in which he knew him? For that, and through your letters I have meditated much in this respect. The idea that the experience of the professor must be compared to a book of theories by "Billy" - seems to me unjust, for how much really are the two things opposite? I who knew the professor, know that he would never have doubted the words of Billy, because he himself lived his own experience and did not doubt that others also would have had an experience of the same type… To him it did not seem impossible nor incredible... because to him had occurred something outside of the common. Then why not accept that others also have lived something special, something outside of the common? I have nothing against Billy, nor am I a UFO authority to judge. It is simply my humble opinion that if he did not know Prof. Hernandez, he could opinion absolutely nothing about him. However, that which I have seen about Meyer and his experience surprises me. Some years ago I was sent a cassette and there I had the opportunity to know you, Sr. Wendelle. I have saved it because much of what it says has come to confirm that extraterrestrial beings have always been on our planet, nothing more than even those same contactees deny that others have had the same experiences so as not to obscure their own events. Concerning whether the experience of Prof. Hernandez, is or is not a lie (hoax) time itself will tell us, if it is not that we already have of evidence of intentions of invasion. The same professor spoke of a chemical war that would be brought or be faced with extraterrestrial races, and this we are already coming to. With respect to the question in your last letter sent on the 17th of July, which I must tell you I received only yesterday, for which I have not written, but you asked me if the Senora Hernandez had returned me any more information. No, she has returned me nothing, and nobody except those nearest relatives have access to the information on the investigation. I have thought, and am convinced, that the Professor merits separate mention apart, concerning his history. I also would like to see the book ended. May I ask one extra favor? Please mention my complete name ZITHA RORIGUEZ MONTIEL, to see if through this, sometime, in same place, the Professor will see it and write me or try to get into contact with me, OK? This is all for now, without other particular, I say goodbye. Sincerely, Zitha Rodriguez END LETTER {{PAUSE=2}} That personal letter to a fellow researcher is very revealing in that it expresses the individual honesty and good faith of a dedicated person diligently seeking the truth herself. She is dismayed and piqued at the audacity of anybody challenging the sincerity and integrity of a most responsible and highly respected man, a veritable pillar of truth in his country before he began to reveal his experiences with the extraterrestrials. And Zitha is in fact justified, because how can anybody judge the realities of another without undertaking an in-depth on-site investigation of all the facts in the case? We are far more inclined to read the facts for ourselves than to accept the unsupported pronouncements of anybody else, and we recommend this to all. This then is the bizarre story of Prof. R.N. Hernandez of Mexico, who disappeared without a trace in the middle of this investigation, and who has not turned up anywhere since. {{PAUSE=2}}PROFESSOR HERNANDEZ REFLECTS {{PAUSE=2}} After considerable reflection upon what Lya had told me I began a search for literature referring to the Unidentified Flying Objects. I analyzed the data concerning such contacts worldwide with great curiosity to see if anyone else, in the whole world, had suffered an experience similar to mine. From then on I have been writing to groups studying the extraterrestrials in the United States as much as in Europe. I understood that since those same groups had, perhaps unconsciously, established guidelines for such things, they would examine for themselves all kinds of sightings of ships of extraterrestrial appearance. They spoke much about the credibility of the extraterrestrial contacts and speculated concerning the truth or falsehood of such cases, and this was influenced by many factors. One of them they referred to as plasma physics. I did not knew much about what that was but I immediately began to familiarize myself with it and I discovered that it only referred to extraterrestrial ships and balls of light whose characteristic was that of a form of stable plasma. Such luminous phenomena had been reported as UFOs. Luminous balls that later were recorded in the annals of laboratories were created as masses of partly ionized air. The masses of air completely ionized were forms of stable plasma. What was curious, was that nobody was able to seriously offer a rebuttal in turn to the question. There were accounts that referred to extraterrestrial beings who entered into contact with terrestrial people but, for some reason, very few of those cases were worth taking into account. It gave me the understanding that those studies were still in the sightings phase. One of the rules on credibility of the contacts depended in large part on the conditions under which the sighting was reported, and always on whether there were two or more witnesses. However after conscientiously analyzing a case one runs into opposition with conformance to the established theories creating with this an uncertainty on whether the witnesses were sober or not at the time of seeing what they reported they saw. After much thinking on this I became disillusioned. How could I say that an extraterrestrial woman had invited me to travel in her ship and that she had shown me how much damage man was doing to his own self? How could I explain that humanity constituted a threat to it's own self, and that this had been shown demonstrated to me by a beautiful woman who lived on a world called INXTRIA or AENSTRIA. If the scientists scarcely analyzed the light of those photographs and movies that had been taken of what had appeared as mysterious lights, and had not studied them under a microscope and in a computer, how could they explain that the business was not much more serious than a simple light in the sky? Sometimes I was totally convinced that nobody would ever believe me. I had read that when a UFO was totally identified as a form of plasma the witness was considered truthful. If the scientists then agreed with this, that was given absolute credit. But my experience could not be investigated through any terrestrial parameter. Why? With what analogues situation could I compare it? I knew it would be very difficult, and above all for a professor such as I. Considering this, what would be my next step? I was of the opinion that my case concerning the experiences with Lya was managed with the greatest love. Because to take the opposite point of view not only is totally illogical but is absurd. In some manner I had to give to knowledge all that Lya had said. In vain I had looked for someone to offer me the light of an adequate investigation and analysis of my case. Lya had told me one time, almost at the beginning: "The incredulity and skepticism shown by the terrestrials has been our principal cover. We knew that we could come and live on the Earth confidentially. Nobody would believe in our origin." She knew that all that was said by a contactee would always be placed in doubt. She had also told me: "We have been speaking liberally with your co-terrestrials because we are sure that nobody is going to believe the witnesses." I reflected on the classification they would give me. Perhaps they would call me a lunatic or crazy. Perhaps my students would say that I was delirious, or my children would define my state as senile hallucinations. In the majority of the cases they would simply call me a fanatic. Lya had given me many prophecies, which had come to pass with the passage of time. For example she had informed me that: "In the days to come, the world will be confronting many surprises. After 1984 there will be intense political agitation that will bring very significant changes in all the Communist countries. They will be trying to find a solution to the problem of hunger and will seek allies to undertake studies in search of a solution to the scarcity of foodstuffs, but no country will have confidence in them. New systems of espionage will be developed and they will increase their spynets throughout the world for better communication and to favor new strategies. New personalities will come to political power who will seek in their turn the support of scientists in their eagerness to combat the famine, also, because in the future the scarcity of grains will make more nations dependent." I thought that if I spoke out on the prophecies of Lya, would they believe that I was a neophyte in predicting the questions of political futures. Once more the uncertainty... would they believe me? On the other hand, wasn't it necessary that they believe me or that they believe Lya!? I have meditated much on this. I would have to write down all that she had told me. Whether anybody wanted to believe me or not, it was within my capacity to try to convince them. "Would you like to know something more?" Lya had asked me on that occasion. "Yes... Who will triumph at the end of a conflagration?" "You refer to your planet? Well then... if the following conflict at a world level obliges the powers to recruit allies, nobody will survive, not even those tribes who inhabit the most interior parts of Africa. The bacteriological weapons that are being developed today in countries like Viet Nam and Afghanistan still do not show the real panorama of their noxious spectrum. Their consequences in the long run will become known later. Moreover, due to the high chemical concentrations that will be utilized in a conflagration, the Earth will become barren. Not a single root will survive. And if perhaps some human being would come to save himself, it will be for very little time, because the energy released through the weapons and bombs will attract more energy from space. Thus once the thick gases are concentrated in the stratosphere, gaseous clouds full of energy that circulate in space will be attracted by the energy of their same kind or the affinity of their chemical composition. Something that you do not know is that energy feeds on energy. It is precisely for this that the atom is so dangerous; because it feeds on energy. Very great are the dangers to which man is exposed. If your humanity does not unite and combat these radioactive rains that come from space, and belts of noxious gases that will adhere to the terrestrial atmosphere, nor also to neutralize the enormous power of combustion of the artificial satellites that surround the Earth, as well as to suspend the accumulation of deadly weapons, even for themselves... they will be destroyed by their own hands." Lya sent me to ponder through complete reflection all that I had heard... which at times not even I myself could explain... the why of the liberation of coherent atoms, neutrons, neutrinos, protons, etc. I meditated profoundly on death... Of what significance was it FOR MAN to live in the violence and to die for it? Under these circumstances... was it worth being born? With the passage of time I felt totally impotent. I no longer listened to the news. Desperation little by little overpowered me. I continually thought about peace and how to gain it. Could one University teacher change the mentality of the great powers? I was trying to accumulate my will to resist falling into the state of mind that was slowly sinking me into depression. I vowed to myself that someone would come to have access to these pages. I took heart in the illusion that man would understand. I said to myself that man is the only rational being of his expression in the world, and it inspired me to continue until I reached my colleagues through the lofty expression obtained by writing. I promised that I would do something for myself by my writing this... I would continue to struggle because they must be made to know what Lya had confided to me... It would cost a lot of work but it was worth the effort because this was the least that I could do... {{PAUSE=2}}EPILOGUE {{PAUSE=2}} The Professor, true to his decision, decided to put his notes in order and make them available for publication. The good Professor has long since passed from the scene... at the hands of his own compatriots the very ones he sought to save. Many of the predictions given him by the mysterious extraterrestrial woman, Lya, have come to pass or are coming true today. We are far worse off now than we were ten years ago when he made his notes, which in the end actually became his downfall and were the proximate cause of the unfortunate end to a brilliant career. Had it not been for his accidental meeting with Zitha Rodriguez, and his sudden impulse to tell somebody, anybody who would not be suspicious and could understand what he was talking about, you would not be reading these lines. We wish the good Professor were here now to see his profound revelations finally made public. It may be too late to save everything, but perhaps there is still time to do something for ourselves and our world in his memory. If so, then his sacrifice will not have been in vain. A non-profit Foundation has been set up under the CENTRO INTERNACIONAL DE ESTUDIOS ESPACIALES A.C., Aptdo. Postal No. 92-047, C.P. 08500, Mexico D.F., MEXICO, in memory of Prof. R. N. Hernandez. The purpose of this foundation is to advance the study of UFO phenomena worldwide, and to continually inform the public on such events as they are reported, to foster the publication of valid books on extraterrestrial contacts and related phenomena, and to maintain a continuous exhibit of the Hernandez material, his diary, contact notes and other writings on this extremely interesting case and others like it, and to advance public interest in such matters. Let us take our hats off to one very brave and courageous man to observe a moment of silence in his honor. (Voluntary contributions may be sent to C.I.D.E.E. above.)
