Time Travelers from Atlantis: The Collected Essays of Ida M. Kannenberg

In Old Atlantis, a group of Atlanteans sought to escape from religious persecution. Through their mastery of psychic abilities they knew of the approaching destruction of their home and, using advanced technology they developed secretly, they traveled through time to the late 19th Century, an age of relative geological stability. Since then, they have been responsible for many of the UFO sightings and alien abductions that have been reported. In 1940 these UFO occupants abducted Ida Kannenberg and implanted her with a device in preparation for making contact with her years later. After years of painful training Ida found herself in telepathic contact with a constant companion inside her head: Hweig. Ida maintained her skepticism, and her good humor, throughout, both of which are apparent in these essays. Here the Old Atlanteans explain that their overall purpose is no less than the evolution of man; for us to regain our lost psychic abilities, and to emerge at last into cosmic adulthood.

A pioneer researcher of the UFO enigma, Ida Kannenberg sponsored with Dr. Leo Sprinkle the First Rocky Mountain UFO Conference in 1980 at the University of Wyoming. At the historic conference, she introduced the time travelers that contacted her in 1940. “Like most UFO abductees or contactees, she [Kannenberg] sees herself as an unobtrusive, unimportant, ‘everyday person,’” wrote Dr. Leo Sprinkle. Kannenberg wrote about UFO encoun-ters as she experienced them, information conveyed by the time travelers, and observations about them. She puzzled over composite human nature, humanity as a species, how the species came to its present evolution, and the individual as an existential filament of physical and spiritual worlds. Yet, Kannenberg puzzled in down-to-earth terms and called herself a little old lady in tennis shoes. She extended a steady hand in support of fellow contactees and abductees, and her first book was a manual for UFO experiencers. A tireless researcher, she wrote seven books about UFO contact, psychic development, extraterrestrials, ultraterrestrials and time travelers. Her books include "UFOS and the Psychic Factor"; "Project Earth from the ET Perspective"; "Time Travelers from Atlantis"; "Reconciliation"; "My Brother Is a Hairy Man", "A Son of Old Atlantis"; and "The Alien Book of Truth". Ida Kannenberg was born October 27, 1914 in Iowa. She passed from this life on May 17, 2010.
