Billy Meier Photographs
"The possibility that Eduard Meier  alone, or even with confederates, could have hoaxed all the phenomena we have seen and faked the hundreds of excellent photos of the spacecraft, UFO photographs of every kind and style we have known, landing tracks of several different kinds, recorded the highly peculiar sounds of the alien ships, and the other evidence we have examined and tested to our satisfaction, is as unbelievable as the basic premise of visitation by extraterrestrial human beings itself, perhaps even moreso." -- Wendelle Stevens
