It was on 1 August, 1982, in the Semjase-Silver-Star-Center, and to be sure, after an impressive fireworks display that Billy made and led himself. Margaret Rose and I, Hanna Bieri, sat on the grass on the "Kanzel" above the house [the small hill to the south; see map, No. 3], and looked at the sky, in expectation that perhaps we could see a beamship of the Pleiadians, which had been the case so far on each August 1st, the Swiss national holiday.

It was a mild night with a wonderfully clear, starry sky, which was its own cause for wonderment. Yet most importantly we kept a lookout for "traveling stars" and especially a beamship of the Pleiadians, which, high in the sky, might not pass up a view of Billy's awesome fireworks and at times brighten up to send us a greeting. And actually, so it was, today. Suddenly we saw, not far above us at not too great a height, a bright light flare up, which revealed itself as being a rotating beamship. And as we for several years had already become accustomed, it beamed strongly three times and then shot up vertically into the sky, and growing smaller at a frantically quick pace, suddenly disappeared. "You see, they have greeted us," I then heard Margaret Rose say. Then I knew that she had also seen the small spectacle and I had not dreamed it.

Happily and thankfully we climbed down the many steps of the hillock, where we along with other Group members had mingled, whom we came to learn had also observed the beamship.
