“There are types of energy which lie outside the electromagnetic spectrum. Unfortunately, these research efforts have not been given recognition. For the most part, they have been performed by individuals without any support, whose work lies at the threshold of present-day science, and who are years ahead of science which is already established.” YearsHas BeensLyingIndividualEnergyGivenEffortSupportTypeResearchRecognitionSpectrumThresholdPresent Day Author:Edgar Mitchell
“Let me put it in a rather larger picture framework. Let's go to the longest time frame, the time frame of the life of our sun. As a star, our sun is about halfway through its life cycle. In the long run, we only have a couple of billion more years likely that we can inhabit this planet. By that time, we're going to have to be out of here before our sun dies. Now, I don't think we need to wait that long, and we certainly shouldn't wait that long. At the moment, we are not on a sustainable path.” ThinkingNeedsYearsLongMomentsRunningDiesStarsWaitingSunPathPlanetsCoupleLet MeBillionsCyclesLong RunsFrameworkHalfway Author:Edgar Mitchell
“So, we've gone from covered wagons to going to the moon in just under 100 years. For all the centuries and thousands of years before us, people walked or rode horses, cows, camels or whatever. This so-called modern era, from the late 19th century through now, has been the period of the most amazing development, discovery, innovation and acceleration of change that humans have ever experienced. And it hasn't slowed down yet.” PeopleYearsHumansHas BeensGoneModernCenturyDevelopmentPeriodsMoonLateDiscoveryHorseInnovationErasCoveredCows19th CenturyMost AmazingCamelsWagonsAccelerationModern Era Author:Edgar Mitchell
“The downside was that for 400 years, science has grown up, has arisen and developed as a purely materialist concept and avoided the subject of mind and consciousness, leaving it to the realm of religion. Only with the founding of quantum science in the early part of the 20th century have we realized that the Cartesian Duality is wrong, that body, mind, physicality do interact and they're interrelated.” YearsMindBodyConsciousnessSubjectsCenturyConceptsLeavingRealmsQuantum20th CenturyFoundingAvoidedDualityPhysicality Author:Edgar Mitchell
“Most 20th century academic physicists, and academia as a whole, simply did not want to touch the subject of consciousness. We have seen psychology grow up, and we've seen the development of neurophysiology and other much more sophisticated science, but only in the recent years have the tools of quantum mechanics been applied to anything representing human scale size.” WantYearsHumansWholeGrowsConsciousnessGrowing UpPsychologySubjectsCenturyDevelopmentToolsSizeScalesAcademicQuantumSophisticated20th CenturyMechanicPhysicistRepresentingQuantum MechanicsAcademia Author:Edgar Mitchell
“I also see an undercurrent - and perhaps the Indigo Children are another aspect of this â€" that's moving in the right direction that I thought was really predominant during the last 35 years since I started Noetics.

At the moment, however, the political system, in my opinion, is going in the wrong direction.” PeopleYearsChildrenMomentsLastsMovingPoliticalOpinionAspectTidesPolitical SystemsRight DirectionMoving InWrong DirectionIndigoMoving In The Right Direction Author:Edgar Mitchell
“To bring the tools of science and to recognize that the flaw in the Cartesian Duality and to bring the tools of science to look at this question of mind and consciousness and to explore it using the tools of science â€" instead of saying, as has been the tradition for 400 years, that consciousness is not a proper subject for science to look at.” YearsMindLooksHas BeensConsciousnessSubjectsTraditionToolsFlawsDuality Author:Edgar Mitchell
“I've talked with people of stature-of military and government credentials and position-and heard their stories, and their desire to tell their stories openly to the public. And that got my attention very, very rapidly.... The first hand experiences of these credible witnesses that, now in advanced years are anxious to tell their story, we can't deny that, and the evidence points to the fact that Roswell was a real incident, and that indeed an alien craft did crash, and that material was recovered from that crash site.” PeopleYearsFirstsRealFactsStoriesHandsGovernmentDesireAttentionHeardMilitaryPositionMaterialsEvidenceDenyCraftsWitnessAliensAnxiousCrashSiteIncidentsUfoStatureCredibleCredentialsFirst Hand Experience Author:Edgar Mitchell
