CHAPTER 21The Chetenen Reconnaissance of Earth Dagolo touched the keyboard on the computer in her study and immediately the viewing screen showed a picture of the big incredibly wide Universe. From the computer I found out that the Chetenens (former inhabitants of the fifth planet out from our sun, now orbiting as asteroids) started an expedition and searched the third planet out, our Earth, because this planet, a planet of hope, was almost identical to their home planet, which they called “Cheten”. The closer they came the more the beauty revealed itself. It seemed as if they were approaching a beautifully colored glass marble where now and then a milky veil would float about it as if hiding its secrets. With a small research laboratory they landed on an almost oval plateau. It was the only elevation in a far and wide valley. On the horizon they saw high mountains. They found themselves in the crater of a dead volcano. They found out that by rain and wind it had branched out and been watered for thousands of years. They slowly worked upon the ground, and they cautiously tested the mixtures of the Earth. Even though this planet, where the research group had landed, resembled their planet Cheten, it was almost like a twin, it had less oxygen around. There was no great danger for them and they used only now and then their breathing equipment Their main activity was to research and search the near surroundings, and they used their mobile walking robots for that. When they examined its nature, the research group found over and over again great similarities in flora and fauna, with their home planet Cheten One year later, after intensive preparation, they built the first space station, which served as their entry and exit point for further continued stations. This installation also served as their operations base for continued activities. All in all 21 research foundations were created stretching out over the entire planet, the “Planet of Hope” as they called the Earth. Nine of these stations again developed themselves into large cities. And at the height of the blossoming of their culture, they counted 2,900,000 Chetenians, and that many lived in those cities. Countless expeditions entered deeply into the still untouched virgin nature, and they came back over and over with new knowledge and new results of their research. They came back to their foundation points. One of their many expedition groups became missing and was believed lost. After about four and a half years this missing research group reappeared again unexpectedly, and they entered into the research institute the sensational results of their research. That kind of research would change at once the entire research activity here. In an area that was rich in water, that was a thousand kilometers from this support point, from the foundation base, the returned research group had run into a few tribes of intelligent upright walking dark-skinned creatures. They used tools and they even had already mastered the use of fire. But these beings had only a weak spun dress made out of hair that could not protect them from the cold, they created for themselves such dress. Most of the time one tribe lived in very well built huts where one could find in the center an open place for fire. They were already leading a very well organized life that had great meaning for the survival of the entire tribe. The research group also encountered beings who were similar to the first group, but were mightier and stronger in their body build, who moved themselves in a more bent than upright posture. For them clothing was unnecessary because they had a thick hairlike fur that protected them from the cold. These beings were equally collectors and hunters. Their hunting methods differed much from the upright walking beings. These second beings did not have as much success, because they had less well built weapons and tools for hunting. That was why at tines this tribe was struck by terrible hunger, and they were not as fertile because this impaired their reproductive ability. They lived mostly in caves where they had learned to produce fire to warm themselves additionally. Even though they resembled their neighbors, the smaller race, quite a lot, they had quite different characteristics. They were unable at times to maintain what they had earned and to develop it further For a long time the Chetenens devoted research to where and why such crass differences were discovered between those two different races. After intense research and comparisons they came to a conclusion that this was a case of two very opposing, very different evolutionary lines of development. The upright walking smaller beings were capable of gathering new knowledge while hunting and in daily life, and could translate it into their living, were highly intelligent and unmistakably carried hominid genes in them. It was again a time when the viewing screen and the loudspeaker drummed this information into my very stressed brain, that I actually had a headache again. But Krotk freed me of this strange headache. Intuitively I got it that Krotk possessed telepathic ability like Dagolo. That he was in a position to use this power massively astonished me, because so far as I knew, only Dagolo could do this. But Krotk as well goes through my brain, went through my head, like Dagolo. “Why are you surprised? Why does this surprise you, Andreas?” He said. “I thought it was really only Dagolo who was capable of telepathically going through my head. “Yes, she is more capable because she masters it much more easily, to enter the thought process.” He continued. : “I live with Dagolo. We sometimes train together, to develop our parapsychological abilities. My abilities are rather modest. Dagolo is one of the few who has perfected this ability for telepathy. And when she uses her electronic helping devices, her ability is heightened in this area. Well actually every human being has certain parapsychologica abilities, but very few humans know that. If you want to develop them, train more. It should absolutely be done under the supervision of a competent person.” I remained silent. The computer asked now if it should continue with the lecture. “Am I hearing right,” I thought. The Pallian being carried on a dialogue on the computer, with the keyboard. After that this technological wonderwork continued with the instruction, in the shortest form, because in the right edge of the viewing screen appeared a small flame, possibly in those areas where the computer prepared the information for me. Chetenian gene research went with the knowledge of this missing researchers group – Chetenian gene researchers were rather skeptical at first with the research knowledge that the missing research group offered. But the proofs that they brought with them were utilized as evidence of the existence of these two different human races on Earth and they accepted. They were very surprised because they believed that on the Planet of Hope, there were at most highly developed animals, like those on the Planet Cheten. They still remained a little skeptical, and because of this they assembled in the shortest time, a research group that would look into these newly discovered beings. The day came when they returned with some of these human creatures. It was a never ending research history that continued to unfold and changed the social life of the Chetenians. And so the research history began. Download 4.07 Mb. Share with your friends:
