|
This interesting paper begins with a review of the famous "Hill Case", the
|
|
quintessential UFO abduction case. Attention is focussed on the "star map"
|
|
which Betty Hill was shown by the "Leader" and later reproduced under
|
|
hypnotic regression. Marjory Fish's solution of that map is then discussed.
|
|
|
|
An interpretitive analysis of the interaction between Betty Hill and the
|
|
"Leader", and noticing two small curved lines in the largest circles of the
|
|
Hill Star Map led Koch and Kyborg to seek their own, new solution to the star
|
|
map.
|
|
|
|
In their analysis of the "Leader's" presentation of the star map to Betty,
|
|
they discerned that the "Leader" had obtained enough information to determine
|
|
Betty's limited astrnomical knowledge; mostly about the planets in our own
|
|
solar system. They then postulated that the "Leader" presented information
|
|
to Betty in a frame of reference with which Betty should have been familliar.
|
|
When Betty "failed the test" by not recognizing the location of Earth in the
|
|
map, the "Leader" closed the map from view. Perhaps, Koch/Kyborg reasoned, it
|
|
WAS our own solar system that Betty was shown.
|
|
|
|
Wondering if the two small curved lines across the two large circles in the
|
|
map foreground indicated the rings of Saturn and Jupiter, they used a
|
|
computer to plot the positions of the various bodies of our solar system at
|
|
the time of the Hill abduction. With some work, and one major assumption,
|
|
they found a good match to the Hill Star Map within our own solar system.
|
|
|
|
The "major assumption" to which we refer is that their best solution comes not
|
|
on the day of the actual abduction but on a day about one month later during
|
|
the nights that Betty Hill experienced nightmares of the abduction and saw
|
|
the star map again in her dreams. These nightmares ocurred only once.
|
|
|
|
To us, the most suggestive detail is that the Koch/Kyborg solution accounts
|
|
elegantly for a detail of the Hill Star Map that the Fish solution does not
|
|
address: a small central circle drawn with a thick line. The position of our
|
|
sun coincides with this feaure of the map in the proposed solution. This was
|
|
discovered after the other correspondences were accounted for.
|
|
|
|
The researchers' logic is plausible, with the possible exception of the date
|
|
and its rationale.
|
|
|
|
The text is accompanied by several illustrations of the Hill Star Map as
|
|
drawn by Betty Hill, and printouts of the computer generated diagrams of the
|
|
solar system indicating the proposed solution. Some of these printouts were
|
|
difficult to read, but did show the solution as stated.
|
|
|
|
We feel that this proposed solution of the star map is worthy of serious
|
|
consideration. In our view, the Koch/Kyborg proposal is generally as
|
|
plausible as is Ms. Fish's.
|
|
|
|
This paper is not currently available in the U.S. to the best of our
|
|
knowledge. It certainly should be, and no doubt will be available.
