Speculation that the reactions of diamagnt-tic and paramagnetic materials under
the action vi rr.agnets might afford motive power to flying saucers.
Lauritze;i, Hans. F1ying saucers -- superconducting whirls of plasma. Flying
saucers, Mar. 196't: 10-11.
Author hypothesizes that UFOs are super-conducting ring-shaped whirls of
plasma tra.pped by earth's magnetic lines of force. Phenomena accompanying
UFO sightings are explained in this context.
----- MagneUc motors: power systems of the flying saucers? F1ying saucers,
Mar. 19~7: 13-21.
Author states that in its space program the Soviet Union is using the mechanical
accelerator as the pt·opulsion system. Experiments seem to indicate that its
range comprises al! iields of velocity through the speed of light and perhaps
many times faster than light. Proposals for experiments with this mode of pro-
pulsion are det:;.iled.
----- Th~ motive power of the flying saucers. Saucer news, \'. 13, Winter 1966-
1967: 7-9.
Describes theoretical and experimental work carried out to determine the mo-
tive power of flying saucers.
Lafonta, Paul. Delendus est clypeus. Phenomenes spatiaux, Nov. 1964: 8-12.
Lists phenomena associated with UFO sightings and draws conclusions about
mode of propulsion based on interpretations of these phenomena.

Desc :iptfon of electrical principle that pe1 mits saucer-type metal plate used

Moorehouse, Frederick G. The case of the flying saucers. Argosy, v. 329, July
1949: 22-24, 92.
Author states that: (1) there are flying saucers; (2) they repxesent the most
advanced form of guided missile yet to appea::; (3) they use a new source of
propulsion which derives from a compact "soft fission'' atomic powerplant that
affords amazing performance in terms of range and speed: (4) they use a new
scheme for guidance and control that gives a never-before-reached degree of
precision. He documents his claims.
