Human Extraterrestrials in the Billy Meier Case 

The topics covered in this article include:
  • The physical appearance and characteristics of the Plejaren
  • How they move among humans on Earth
  • How they obtain money while visiting our world
  • Their PSI abilities and consciousness-related capabilities
  • Teleportation events described in the contact reports
  • Witness testimonies from individuals who encountered the Plejaren
  • Investigator reports documenting these events
The extraterrestrials described in the Billy Meier contact case are, in essence, human beings—biologically similar to us yet far more advanced in technology, consciousness, and spiritual development. They stand further along the evolutionary path than Earth humanity. Their appearance, family structures, and general way of life resemble our own, but their capabilities extend far beyond anything currently possible on Earth. 

Semjase, one of the central figures in the contact reports, is described as being 344 years old, approximately 1.7 meters tall, with fair skin, blue eyes, and light‑blond hair. The only anatomical difference noted is her unusually long, slightly forward‑placed earlobes, a distinguishing feature among her people. She has a sister named Pleija, who has black hair, and a brother named Yukatan. 

According to the contact notes, the Plejaren maintained three underground bases on Earth—one in Europe, one in Asia, and one in America. Semjase belonged to the European work group and occasionally moved among the human population on the surface. 

Advanced Technology: Teleportation and Beamships 

One of the most striking differences between the Plejaren and Earth humans is their advanced technology. Their beamships are capable of hovering motionless in the air while the occupants teleport themselves to and from the ground. This means they do not always need to land the craft in order to exit or re‑enter it. 

Multiple witness statements describe this technology in action. In one instance, at the end of a contact, Billy was teleported back to the ground where a group of people were waiting for him. It was a rainy evening, and while everyone else was soaked, Billy suddenly appeared among them completely dry—having been inside the beamship until the moment he was teleported down by its teletransmitter device. 

Investigator Wendelle Stevens also witnessed a teleportation event. He and another witness wrote a statement describing how Billy walked out the door and simply vanished, leaving behind only a line of footprints in the muddy ground that ended abruptly, as if he had stepped out of existence. They later had to drive to a distant location to pick him up—a place the locals insisted he could not possibly have reached by any normal means within the short time he was gone. 

Billy’s wife also reported seeing Ptaah, another Plejaren, activate a device on his belt and disappear instantly, “disintegrating into nothing” before her eyes. 

These accounts illustrate how the Plejaren’s technological capabilities far exceed anything currently known on Earth. 
 
PSI Abilities and Spiritual Development 

Beyond technology, the Plejaren are described as being more evolved on a spiritual and consciousness level. They possess what we call PSI abilities, a term derived from the Greek letter Psi (Ψ), associated with the psyche—mind, soul, or spirit. 

Examples of PSI Abilities 

Telepathy: Mental communication or perception of thoughts 

Empathy: Sensing or influencing emotions 

Mind Influence: Suggestion or thought‑control 

Telekinesis: Moving objects with the mind 

Precognition / Clairvoyance: Perceiving future or distant events 

These abilities are described as natural extensions of consciousness development rather than supernatural phenomena. According to the contact notes, such abilities arise through long‑term evolution and disciplined training, not innate magic or mysticism. 
 

Moving Among Us: Clothing and Identification 

The contact notes contain a rare discussion about how Semjase and others dress when mingling among Earth humans. The following excerpt illustrates how Semjase explains their methods for blending into human society.

English Translation (Contact 31) 

Billy 

I always see you only in your suit, and in such clothing neither you nor any of your people could appear before the dear Earth humans. 

Semjase 

21. Certainly. But we also have clothing of your kind. 

22. We need them because, from time to time, we move among your circles—vibrationally shielded, of course—so that we are not harmed by the vibrations of the Earth humans. 

23. But we can only do this for a short period each time. 

Billy 

That doesn’t really surprise me, but why don’t you go out with me sometime? 

Semjase 

24. We can come to an agreement about that. 

Billy 

That’s all well and good, but here we have what we call the police, who like to check people’s papers whenever the mood strikes them. What happens if they ask you for identification papers? 

Semjase 

25. You do come up with questions at times, but don’t worry about that. 

26. We do not possess identification papers of your kind, for we have no need for such things in that form. 

27. However, should it occur that we are asked for such papers, we are able to settle the matter through thought‑influence. 

28. This means that we use the power of our thoughts to create a convincing image for the person asking, making them see the identification data of real individuals from your world. 

29. Any police officer, for example, would genuinely believe that he had some sort of identification papers in his hands and was examining them. 

Billy 

That’s deception, Semjase

Semjase 

30. No. It is merely the creation of a hallucination, if you wish to call it that. 

Billy 

I understand. Let’s leave it at that. 

German Original (Kontakt 31) 

Billy 

Immer sehe ich dich nur in deinem Anzug, und mit dieser Kleidung könntest doch weder du noch könnten andere von euch unter die Augen der lieben Erdenmenschen treten. 

Semjase 

21. Sicher, doch wir besitzen auch Kleidung eurer Art. 

22. Diese benötigen wir, weil wir uns hie und da in euren Kreisen bewegen, schwingungsmässig abgeschirmt natürlich, damit wir durch die Schwingungen der Erdenmenschen nicht geharmt werden. 

23. Das aber können wir jeweils nur für kurze Zeit tun. 

Billy 

Das wundert mich eigentlich nicht, doch warum gehst du dann nicht einmal mit mir aus? 

Semjase 

24. Darüber können wir uns einmal einig werden. 

Billy 

Das ist flott, doch bei uns haben wir die sogenannte Polizei, die manchmal aus irgendwelchen Launen heraus verschiedene Personen kontrolliert. Was dann, wenn man von dir Ausweispapiere verlangt? 

Semjase 

25. Du hast manchmal Fragen, doch sei unbesorgt deswegen. 

26. Ausweispapiere eurer Art besitzen wir keine, denn derartiger Dinge bedürfen wir nicht in dieser Form. 

27. Sollte es sich aber ergeben, dass wir nach derartigen Papieren gefragt werden, dann vermögen wir dies durch Gedankenbeeinflussung zu ordnen. 

28. Dieses Ordnen besteht darin, dass wir durch die Kraft unserer Gedanken für die betreffenden Fragesteller Scheinbilder erzeugen und ihnen Daten usw. wirklich bestehender Personen eurer Welt vorspiegeln. 

29. Ein eventueller Polizeibeamter usw. wäre dadurch wirklich der Ansicht, dass er irgendwelche Ausweise usw. in Händen hätte und diese kontrollieren würde. Billy Das ist ja Betrug, Semjase. 

Semjase 

30. Nein, es handelt sich nur um die Erzeugung einer Halluzination, wenn du das so nennen willst. 

Billy 

Ich verstehe schon, lassen wir das daher.

How Semjase Obtained Money on Earth 

Another practical question addressed in the contact notes is how Semjase acquired money when she needed to buy something while moving among humans. This passage provides insight into how the Plejaren handled everyday logistics during their time on Earth.

(My translation above the German original) 

English Translation (Contact 42) 

Billy 

Where do you get the money when you’re wandering around on our Earth, vibrationally shielded, and decide to buy something? 

Semjase 

122. For such purposes, we use our search devices on Earth to locate precious metals and gemstones, which we extract in very small quantities with our equipment and sell as raw pieces to buyers who compensate us with Earth money, which we then exchange into the required currencies as needed. 

Billy 

Then you actually earn the money quite easily, because the machines do the work for you. It’s really not a big problem, since that kind of stuff is lying around in many places on Earth. But it’s better this way, if you get your small change like that. Someone already thought you were stealing it somewhere — maybe even robbing a bank now and then.

Semjase 

123. That can’t be true. 

Billy 

It isn’t — you always have to take everything so seriously. 

Semjase 

124. So it was a joke again? 

Billy 

Of course — what did you think? 

 German Original (Kontakt 42)

Billy 

Woher nimmst du das Geld, wenn du schwingungsmässig abgeschirmt auf unserer Erde herumbummelst und irgendwo etwas kaufst? 

Semjase 

122. Für diese Zwecke erstrahlen wir auf der Erde mit unseren Suchgeräten Edelmetalle und Edelsteine, die wir in sehr kleinen Mengen mit unseren Geräten schürfen und als Rohlinge Aufkäufern veräussern, die uns als Gegenwert mit irdischem Geld entschädigen, das wir dann je nach Bedarf in die benötigten Währungen umtauschen. 

Billy 

Dann verdient ihr das Geld eigentlich recht leicht, denn die Maschinen arbeiten ja für euch. Eigentlich gar kein grosses Problem, denn solches Klimperzeugs liegt ja an vielen Orten auf der Erde herum. Es ist aber schon besser so, wenn ihr euch das nötige Kleingeld so besorgt. Jemand glaubte schon, dass ihr es irgendwo klaut und vielleicht gar hie und da eine Bank ausräumt. 

Semjase 

123. Das darf doch nicht wahr sein. 

Billy 

Das ist es auch nicht — dass du auch immer gleich auf die Mühle treten musst. 

Semjase 

124. Also war es wieder ein Spass? 

Billy 

Natürlich, was glaubst du denn?

Short Encounter with Ptaah 

Hinterschmidrüti, 4 February 1979 

Ref Zeugenbuch (2001) page 227 - Kurze Begegnung mit Ptaah 
Also photocopy of statement printed in Block 3 (2004) page 348 
My translation above the German original: 

The following is the signed witness statement of Kalliope Meier‑Zafiriou, describing a brief but startling encounter with Ptaah inside the Meier home. 

English Translation (Witness Statement) 

“It was yesterday, on Billys birthday 3rd February 1979, when I, Kalliope Meier, towards 2.30 PM came from the kitchen and stepped into our sitting room because I wanted to get something there. The door opened and I took the first step into the room when I stopped frightened because at the rear living room exit door stood a big male figure dressed in a strange grey outfit. A type of overall which in the neck featured a large round opening which obviously served for a helmet but which the man did not wear. Around the belt were mounted some strange things.  

 Himself obviously startled, the bearded man looked at me for several seconds, then took a step backwards and reached with his left hand for a small device on his belt whereupon he simply, within a split second, disintegrated into nothing. He disappeared simply without a trace, in fact without noise. Still startled standing there, wild thoughts shot through my head, before it became clear to me that the man at whom I had been staring at for about 15 seconds, could have been no one else  but Ptaah – the extra-terrestrial friend of Billy. Billy’s description of this man fitted at least very precisely to the figure in the living room.   

And that it really was Ptaah, verified he to Billy, still on the same day, at 2.46 PM, thus about 15 minutes after the incident, did contact 119 take place, whereby as Billy explained, Ptaah told him that he had looked for him in the sitting room and in the bedroom, where in fact Billy still was minutes earlier, before Ptaah appeared, however he then went out through the bedroom-corridor exit door in order to go to the garage where he did something. After that, the contact took place. “

Kurze Begegnung mit Ptaah   
Hinterschmidrüti, 4. Feb. 1979  

Es war gestern, Billys Geburtstag, der 3. Februar 1979, als ich, Kalliope Meier, gegen 14.3o Uhr von der Küche herkommend in unsere Wohnstube trat, weil ich dort etwas holen wollte. Die Tür öffnend machte ich den ersten Schritt in den Raum, als ich erschreckt stehen blieb, denn am hinteren Wohnraumausgang stand eine grosse männliche Gestalt, die in einen seltsamen grauen Anzug gekleidet war. Eine Art Overall, der am Hals eine grosse, runde Oeffnung aufwies, die offenbar für einen Helm diente, den der Mann jedoch nicht trug. Rund um den Gürtel waren einige fremdartige  Dinge angebracht.  

Offenbar selbst erschrocken, sah mich der bärtige Mann sekundenlang  an, machte dann einen Schritt rückwärts und griff mit seiner linken Hand an ein kleines Gerät an seinem Gürtel, worauf er sich einfach von einem Sekundenbruchteil zum andern in nichts auflöste. Er verschwand einfach spurlos, und zwar ohne Geräusch.  Noch immer erschrocken dastehend, schossen mir wilde Gedanken durch den Kopf, ehe es mir klar wurde, dass der Mann, den ich etwa 15 Sekunden anstarrte, niemand anderes als Ptaah gewesen sein konnte - der ausserirdische Freund von Billy.  

Billys Beschreibung von diesem Mann passte jedenfalls sehr genau zur Erscheinung im Wohnraum. Und dass es tatsächlich Ptaah gewesen war, bestätigte er gegenüber Billy noch am gleichen Tag, denn um 14.46 Uhr, also etwa 15 Minuten nach dem Vorfall, fand der 119. Kontakt statt, wobei, wie Billy erklärte, Ptaah ihm sagte, dass er ihn in der Wohnstube und  im Schlafzimmer gesucht habe, wo Billy Minuten zuvor, ehe Ptaah in Erscheinung trat, tatsächlich noch war, jedoch dann zur Schlafzimmer-Gang-Aussentür hinausging, um zur Garage zu gehen, wo er etwas erledigte. Danach fand dann der Kontakt statt.  "Popi" Kalliope Meier-Zafiriou (mit ihrer Unterschrift signiert)

Wendelle C. Stevens on the 1978 Teleportation Event — Excerpt from His 2006 Lecture

In his 2006 presentation The Meier Case Update in Laughlin, Nevada, Lt. Col. Wendelle C. Stevens described in detail the teleportation event he personally witnessed on the evening of 6 August 1978

As Billy Meier stepped out through the kitchen door to leave for his contact, he suddenly vanished. It had been raining, and the only physical trace left behind were three clear footprints in the mud—ending abruptly where the fourth step should have been. 

A second piece of evidence came at the end of the contact: the extraterrestrials returned Billy to a location 16 km from his home. He phoned from there to be picked up—a distance he could not possibly have reached by any available means of transport within the short time he had been gone. 

Stevens also recounted how, the next morning, Billy privately told him the names and details of the next popes who would be elected following the death of Pope Paul VI the previous evening—information Billy said he had been shown during the contact aboard the extraterrestrial craft, including what had occurred shortly before the pope’s passing. 

This event, Contact 113, had been prepared months earlier. In Contact 108, held on 1 June 1978, Billy told Ptaah that he had carried out a probability calculation indicating that Pope Paul VI would die on 6 August 1978 at precisely 20:40:13. Ptaah confirmed the calculation as entirely correct, explaining that the Plejaren had known the same date, time, and circumstances years in advance through apparatus‑based analysis. 

Because both sides already knew the exact moment of the pope’s death, the start of Contact 113—nine minutes before the event—was not a coincidence. The timing of Billy’s teleportation was deliberately synchronised with the foreknown occurrence.

🕒 Timeline of Events — 6 August 1978

Time   Event 
17:30    Billy begins preparing for the contact.
20:30   Billy steps out through the kitchen door and instantly vanishes.
20:31    Contact 113 begins.
20:40   Pope Paul VI dies (official Vatican time).
20:55   Wendelle Stevens sees the television announcement: “The Pope has passed away.”
21:10     Billy phones from Gasthaus Krone in Elgg—16 km away—and asks to be picked up.

Additional Witness Details 

Wendelle, together with Jakobus and Kalliope, immediately drives to Elgg. Wendelle writes that they found Billy standing under a barn roof beside the guesthouse—and that Billy’s clothes, especially his outer jacket, were completely dry, despite continuous rain throughout the evening. 

Jakobus documented all possible transport scenarios. He noted: 

  • Billy’s moped remained parked at home the entire time. 
  • Walking would have required 2–3 hours
  • No public transport existed that could have brought him there within the short time frame. 
These factors ruled out any conventional means by which Billy could have reached Elgg between 20:30 and 21:10.
