About the painting: “Circe Offering the Cup to Ulysses” is an oil painting in the Pre-Raphaelite style by John William Waterhouse that was created in 1891. The painting depicts a scene from Greek mythology, the sorceress Circe offering Odysseus a cup containing a potion with which she seeks to bring him under her spell as she has his crew.
In Greek mythology, Circe (pronounced “Keer-keeh” “falcon”) is a minor goddess of magic (or sometimes a nymph, witch, enchantress or sorceress). By most accounts, Circe was the daughter of Helios, the god of the sun, and Perse, an Oceanid. Her brothers were Aeetes, the keeper of the Golden Fleece and Perses, and her sister was Pasiphaë, the wife of King Minos and mother of the Minotaur. Other accounts make her the daughter of Hecate. Circe was renowned for her vast knowledge of drugs and herbs. Through the use of magical potions and a wand she transformed her enemies, or those who offended her, into animals.

“One should as a rule respect public opinion in so far as is necessary to avoid starvation and to keep out of prison, but anything that goes beyond this is voluntary submission to an unnecessary tyranny, and is likely to interfere with happiness in all kinds of ways.” — Bertrand Russell

My friend, Ernesto Lacalle is an architecural engineer, amatuer UFO enthusiast and translator of the Spanish language edition of the book Alien Interview. He has “reverse engineered” (from low-resolution video images) a hypothetical model of a type of UFO craft that has been reported at various times and in various countries around the Earth. This type of alien craft has been given various names in different times and places. Some of these names are: “Giza Intelligences”, “Weiros”, “CTRs” or Contrary. Their ship was misunderstood as a creature called “Quetzalcoatl” in Central America. In India it was called “Garuda”. In the USA it was the “Airship Flap of 1897”. For American natives it was a “Demon”. For Australian Natives it was the “Rainbow Serpent”. Europeans in Middle Age called it the “Devil”. Below is an ancient South American rendering in gold of this type of UFO. The image and video that follow are a hypothetical rendering of a working model, resolved from several low-resolution video, and from famous photograph taken in Pescara, Italy by the well known aeronautical and scientific journalist Bruno Ghibaudi:
