Enjoy the episode images below! Especially all of Billy's "evidence."
Eduard Albert Meier aka "Billy"
Billy claims to have taken a lot of photos Plejaran Beam Ships with their permission.
Billy was given permission to take pictures of two Plejaran women, "Asket and "Nera".
However… These photos would later turn out to be photographs of two back up singers from a band called "The Gold Diggers" as they appeared on an episode of The Dean Martin Variety Hour.
Billy was also given a "Laser Gun" that he photographed and filmed.
Parts of the "laser gun" look suspiciously like preexisting toys or repurposed hardware… Compare the tips of the two "guns."
The Plejarans also took Billy on trips through time where he allegedly photographed dinosaurs! Including a Pteranodon… The bottom image is the one taken by Billy in the past, and the top is a picture from a book called, "Life Before Man."
In 1987, "Contact" a "documentary" about Billy and his contact with the Plejarans was released. It was narrated by David Warner of all people...
The X-Files used one of Billy's pictures uncredited for the first three seasons until he sued and they switched to a parody image. The poster with Billy's uncredited image is on the left and the new poster X-Files switched to on the right.
Billy Meier is still alive and continues publishing "Contact Reports" from his interactions with the Plejarans and operates his FIGU cult from his farm in Switzerland. Though he hasn't published any new photos in quite some time.
