Hey everyone, welcome to Super Soul solutions
For today's show where you will learn about the first human and
extraterrestrial interstellar treaty conference that took place in Exeter,
England back in 1961. In this convention and following conventions
you will also hear about in future shows, human beings along with at
least 100 extraterrestrial species had to scientifically prove that they
were indigenous to Earth in order to maintain the right to earth as
their “home” planet, a pretty big deal. My guest today is Jo Ann
Richards, a journalist and executive director of the educational
nonprofit Earth Defense Headquarters.
Jo Ann's husband, Captain Mark Richards, US Navy and Mark's
father Ellis Lloyd Richards Jr's US Air Force Major were soldiers in
top level military performed intelligence operations since World War
Two. Many special operations included on-world and off-world
contacts with various humanoid and non-humanoid species.
So in this show, Jo Ann will share fascinating and eye-opening
stories of meetings and engagements with different species, starting
with a raptor Prince Naga, Draconis of the Imperial fleet, and Captain
Lloyd Richards, Jr. who conspired together to bring both their
indigenous species together with a goal to work in alliance and no
longer be enemies.
And for the picture of these Raptors, folks, think the velociraptors that
you saw in the Jurassic World movie, which by the way, the Raptors
themselves financed to begin to get humans used to more friendly
dragons.
At that convention, at least 100 species were in attendance along
with the Who’s Who list of the world. The logistics, secrecy and
safety were a huge deal. Imagine each species having different
needs, food requirements, and many needing unique self-contained
environment, especially our five sentient ocean species. Well known
architect, who created the concept of geodesic dome, Buckminster
Fuller, designed many of these unique environments for the
convention. Richards oversaw the security for this entire conference.
Gosh, talk about herding cats literally. Wait until you hear about the
upright walking feline friendly and Canine species.
So the list of attendees included royalty, top officials and many well-
known scientists in all areas of academic experts. So with that
introduction, I welcome you, Jo Ann.
Jo Ann
Hi, there. How are you doing?
I'm good. How are you?
I'm awesome.
You always are. I know.
Merrily
So we're going to start off today by me asking you this question. So
can you describe the purpose of the first interstellar treaty convention
that took place in Exeter in 1961 and some of the famous people
invited from around the world? In other words, the purpose of it more
or less.
Jo Ann
Sure. Well, first of all, I learned that it was suggested by aliens
because of the Cuban Missile Crisis and they were quite worried
about us humans setting off nuclear devices in the atmosphere. And
they wanted us to learn and understand that there is a broader
community beyond just us humans on Earth. They warned us if we
kept using nuclear devices to settle our disputes, we would destroy
our own planet.
They let us know, they'd been studying us for thousands of years,
and they wanted to see if we could relate to each other, humans and
nonhumans, as sentient beings, because most nonhumans do not
see us as sentient beings, because their civilizations are so
advanced. So part of the reason for that, yes, we think we're all that. I
know.
Merrily
We’re so arrogant, right?
Jo Ann
I know. Well, it was it was a social experiment to see how humans
would interact with the aliens because a lot of the humans that
attended the conference, maybe knew about aliens, but they'd never
seen them themselves. And then Mark and his English girlfriend they
were seven and eight, something like that. They were two human
children that were allowed to hang out with alien children who had
with their parents, who were ambassadors.
And so the other part of this social experiment was like, we'll see if
the kids can get along with the aliens. And they had lots of committee
meetings about would they let us go out in space? Would they sell us
their used spacecraft? Would they be allowed to kidnap humans?
Would we be allowed to maybe see how far we could go out into
space? Would we be allowed to defend the Earth? So lots going on.
There had been many treaties since probably the ‘30s and a lot of
them had already been broken. So they were trying to establish one
big treaty to see if everybody could get along, basically.
The attendees, there were heads of state, so you had political
leaders, you had I don't know how many royal people, but heads of
state, whether they were military and political. You had UN leaders,
you had lots of scientists there. I know. Carl Sagan was there,
Buckminster Fuller was there. And the whole conference was
authorized by President Kennedy and the British prime minister. And
as you said, Mark’s dad, was asked to help organize it and he was in
charge of security.
So there was lots going on and it was a fascinating time apparently.
Mark loved being there.
Merrily
That's so cool. I just love this there. And Vice President Johnson also
wasn't he there?
Jo Ann
Oh, that's right. Yes. President Kennedy did not attend but Vice
President Johnson for President Kennedy, right. Yes.
Merrily
So cool. This is so cool. And of course, the kids get along great.
Jo Ann
It was just playing with kids. He didn't think of it as, “Oh, they're aliens
who don't look like me.” Oh, he just had fun playing with the alien
children. It's like this, I’ve just seen a boy.
Merrily
Right, which in this case, folks, there's a picture on the shout out and
we'll be in the future YouTube, you'll see pictures of the species that
Mark was so kind to hand draw and gave he and Jo Ann gave us
permission to use the these pictures. So you'll get a sense of this
show. Now, how many species attended this first convention? And
where were all these species housed because they had to be hidden
from the masses. Right?
Jo Ann
Right, the RAF was very good at keeping the civilians away from the
places that they were staying. So what's interesting is there were like
about 100 species that attended that first one. And the opening,
closing ceremonies were held at Buckfast Abbey in a little village of
Buckfast, I think it's called. I've been there. And it's like, right in the
middle of town. So and I don't know how small it was back in 1961.
And again, back in 1961, England wasn't as crowded as it is now. So
you could get around and they could just make it so that you didn't
see stuff, and they could just close off an area and keep people out.
But the Raptors that we'll talk about, they stayed at a place called
Castle Drogo. So a lot of these committee meetings, lots and a lot of
different meetings were held. It's all in the southern part of England.
So they made use of airfields and places that were close to the
ocean for the ocean going species that were going to come and for
like things that were going to land in a spaceship.
There's one village that has a dimensional portal, and I've been there
too. And so some interdimensional species, we're going to enter
through that dimensional portal. So like Devin Cornwall, I don't know
how much over in Cornwall but all along the southern coast, you'd
have different places because not all of the species could hang out
together. Some of them didn't get along, a lot of them didn't get
along, so you weren't going to have two enemy species like staying
at the same place. And, but the government would just rent
somebody's big manor house or a castle or whatever, and close it off
to the public. And that was that, nobody will, I don't know if they ask
questions. But it's just how you did it.
Merrily
So well in so many of those places. Like you mentioned, I looked
them up on the map and they're very isolated like that, the end of
points and things like that.
So right. Was the English Royal family hosting this event for the
Raptors since Prince Naga Draconis’ family line comes from the
British Isles? I found out on the Jurassic Coast in southern England
that covers 96 miles from when they themselves walk right there,
they go into this reverence of their ancestry and there's been many
fossils and footprints of their kind found. So how is that allowed by
the Queen and all that the connection there?
Jo Ann
I'm not sure that's one thing I've never asked Mark. “Why did they
pick England?” But maybe it was because of that. But again, there
were other species coming so it wasn't like they were catering to
what the Raptors wanted. So I'll have to ask that question why they
chose England for one thing, because I don't know. But like you said,
Nagas line came from that southern coast area and one of the field
trips that Mark and the kids took was to go down there and especially
the Raptor children that were with him. They just love exploring that
part and seeing where their ancestors had been from and the others.
There's a lot of evidence there that dinosaurs roamed that part of the
world. But I don't think the British Royal Family would say they would
they hosted it. I know, Prince Philip was involved. I know. He was
head of their space program. So I don't know if he was back then or
not I I'm not sure when he became the head of it. But the queen, I
mean, they all they all knew about this, all the heads of state
obviously know about this, but I'm sure the Queen would have not
attended that event. But Prince Philip was there and Prince Charles
was at least at the opening ceremony, but you're never going to get
him to admit that.
And it was mostly organized by the military leaders, as far as I know.
And Mark’s dad, Rich, was he was involved with inviting a lot of these
people. So he got to talk to them and convince them that it was a
really good idea for us to sit down and talk and it was a good
experience.
Merrily
By the way, I just want the audience to be clear that Mark's father's
nickname was Rich. It's not that he's rich.
Jo Ann
No.They called him Rich, because his last name is Richards and his
military nickname was called the Dutchman.
Merrily
Let me tell you, yes. It was in terms of Mark's family. Is he from Royal
lineage? Because I do remember Mark stating to me once that one
time he was visiting Queen Elizabeth and was sitting on her lap
talking to her as a little kid, of course. So that's more thing actually?
Jo Ann
Well, actually, okay, that was he was with the Queen moms. So
Queen Elizabeth’s mother. So I'm sure he's met the Queen. He has
worked in military capacities, obviously, as an adult with Prince
Philip. But he has had tea with the queen mum. So that was
delightful. But marks lineage, I'm not sure about his mother's off the
top of my head, but his father's lineage is his father's mom was of
some high level British families. I know the last name Peacock comes
to mind. And I guess that means something in England. And his dad's
side was from Germany. So there's Germany was once a country of
all these little Princedoms you're there's a lot of German princes all
over the place. And so, Marks lineage is a German Princedom from
the Rhineland area and they got defeated by the Prussian so, oh,
there's a lot of them went to like, maybe the Netherlands into
Belgium. So a lot of those royal families came from Mark's family was
so yes, if there were still a Princedom or whatever, he would be a
German Prince, technically.
Merrily
I know those lineages in DNA are a big deal. So how and when did
Mark Richards, your husband, first meet the Raptors. And again,
people think of the Jurassic World movie and which Raptors did Mark
get introduced to. So kind of paint us a picture of that.
Jo Ann
Sure. When Mark was born in 1953, two months to the day, a
contingency of Raptors came to Marin County and in the Marin water
district they did like a naming blood brother type ceremony with him.
Like picture the Lion King and where they raise up the kid is a baby
lion who's going to be the future king. So that's what they do with
Mark and he has a scar on his wrist that is from probably Nagas claw
and then doing some blood brother thing. Mark's dad had met Naga
the year before, because a raptor contingency in their spacecraft had
had arrived at Hamilton Air Force Base in Nevada, California. So
Mark's dad met him first and they started talking and have having
