quickly. which are used to gather information about us. Most of these ships are unmanned and range from nine feet in diameter to small basketball-size devices. They are normally controlled by radio-type signals that are broadcast from their underground complex. Some of the telemeter ships also have on-board intelligence and can pilot themselves and make decision on their own. All of the little reconnaissance ships can be directed and influenced by telepathy. The nine-foot version has room for one passenger and can be flown manually if need be. The telemeter ships are used mostly to monitor all of our different languages, for this is a particularly interesting study for them. They have recorded all of the languages that have been spoken on our world for thousands of years, and continue to monitor our thinking processes to better understand the logic of why we live the way we do. It is very puzzling to them, for instance, how we can live in such a corrupt and negative environment and yet do nothing about it. Communication on the ships is by a process similar to our radio, but the signal travels in a different manner. The signal is attached to faster-than- light particles called tachyons and is projected through null-time, so it arrives at its destination almost instantly. In this way messages and signals can be sent across vast distances of space and be received very "Beam Me Up, Scotty" We have all watched Star Trek as the captain and crew are beamed down to a planet below from the transporter room. A very similar process is used to bring people up into the Beamship. Special matter converters onboard the ship can break the matter of the body down into fine-
