November 30, 2007).
Provides information about food handling and preparation in the event of an emergency
event. “Emergency Preparedness” tells how to keep food in safe storage and properly
prepare it in the case of emergency along with a discussion of food security. “Food borne
Illness & Disease” provides an overview of food borne illnesses plus essential steps to
prevent illness. “Safe Food Handling” teaches basic food safety for all foods, including
recommended internal temperatures. “Meat Preparation” along with “Poultry
Preparation” and “Egg Products Preparation” provide information upon the safe storage,
handling, and preparation of their respective group.
In the event of extraterrestrial hostile action by various factors, the obtainment
and digestion of food would be of a priority. With the extreme likeliness of disruption of
normal machinery involved in the manufacture and transportation of edible materials
would require knowledge of storage, handling, and preparation of various types. Food
security and illness prevention would be of great concern.

Bioengineered pathogens could become a serious threat to human health if ever released.
The best defense available against such an attack would be to isolate the offensive
pathogen as soon as possible and to take samples. These samples can then be used to
identify, classify, and develop a treatment for the pathogen. This document provides
instructions for top notch sample handling and preparation.
As War of the Worlds examples, pathogens that are natural to humans can have a
devastating effect upon the nervous systems of extraterrestrials. Conversely, pathogens
unknown to humans can produce like effects. Therefore knowledge of and a concrete
plan of action for dealing with an occurrence of bioengineered threats could produce
positive results in the event of alien attack. As mentioned above, this document provides
instructions on the identification, handling, identification, and combating which most
likely would be an adopted tactic of any invaders, as evidenced by our discussions of its
usage in the current world situation.

evolution,” U.S. Atomic Energy Commission,
http://repositories.cdlib.org/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=5746&context=lbnl (Accessed
December 2, 2007).
This paper discusses the types of information that can be gathered from “outer space” and
its value in regards to the evolution of life here on earth. The focus is upon either the
presence or absence of certain chemicals which could have significance in the
development of life. While previously (prior to December 7, 1959), the only available
information was obtained by way of telescopic spectroscopy, new studies, particularly
those involving the examination of meteoric material has lead to new insights. Presently,
new information is reported herein concerning the presence of complex organic materials
encased within the meteorites, some of which have appear to be uniquely pertinent to the
formation of life.
In a return to the citation presented above, we have become aware that physiology
and materials that produce adverse reactions in this format have the potential to cause
great harm against a targeted population. Information concerning the potential physiology
of potential opponents can be used to distinct advantage. This paper details the absence or
presence of certain chemicals which could potentially be involved in the formation
process of extraterrestrial life. Knowledge of the necessary components would provide us
with opportunities to create tailored pathogens to combat opponents.

articles, internet resources and other selected materials.
 As the title implies, this is a pathfinder that provides information upon various
aspects of extraterrestrial life forms. It can be used to develop pathways of scholarship
for preparation of alien contact. This could be considered an “essential” text for
developing a library for the purposes of surviving and thriving in the event of first
contact.

7.) Agency for Toxic Substances and & Disease Registry, “Toxic Substances Portal,”
Department of Health and Human Services, http://www.atsdr.cdc.gov/substances/
(Accessed December 1, 2007).
Provides access to the latest research and related information concerning a multitude of
toxic substances and how they affect our health. Information provided includes
characteristics, exposure rates, related health effects, and health studies and assessments.
Physiology and chemical warfare appear to have become a focal point of this
bibliography, and this and several more resources will provide additional instruction upon
the matter. Here we find a multitude of toxic substances and their properties listed. The
affects upon the health of humans are listed, but the effects that these substances would
have upon extraterrestrial physiology are unknown at present.

8.) Agency for Toxic Substances & Disease Registry, “Public Health Assessments and
Health Consultations,” http://www.atsdr.cdc.gov/hac/PHA/index.asp (Accessed
December 1, 2007).
Provides a listing of all Superfund sites in the United States, and provides the public
health assessment for each site. These assessments determine if people are currently
risking exposure to hazardous substances. If they are, and the exposure is deemed to be
harmful, it provides conclusions and recommendations for the reduction or stoppage of
the exposure.
In the chaos that could result from alien invasion, it is possible that one could
become unaware of their present location geographically and this situation could result in
the potential for possible infection by various substances. Therefore this site provides a
listing and mapping of all Superfund sites in the United States, coupled with nature of the
health risks posed by each site. While in normal circumstances one would choose to
avoid such a location, in the case of possible extraterrestrial attack they could be used as
safe havens. If the exposure has been deemed not harmful, or proper protective measures
have been enacted, these areas could be used as refugee areas as the pathogens present
would provide possible defense against extraterrestrial incursions.

government, federal government/private partnerships, state, local, along with
international agencies ranging from the FBI to the WHO. Topics covered include
agroterrorism, bioterrorism, water and food safety, pesticides, and counter terrorism
training.
The material covered here would be useful for survival purposes in the event that
normal avenues of life were disrupted. This portal presents information covering a wide
variety of aspects about the threat of bioterrorism, which would be useful in combating
biological threats of an extraterrestrial origin. The collection of different agencies
involved, from law enforcement to environmental, provides a wide variety of practices
which can be conglomerated for best defense.

12.) Center for Biological Evaluation and Research, “Countering bioterrorism,”

http://www.fda.gov/cber/cntrbio/cntrbio.htm (Accessed December 1, 2007).
This document provides information for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of
diseases caused by bioterrorist pathogens. Also present is a discussion of the complex
nature of such an attack due in the most part to the multiplicity of potential agents
multiplied by the fact that most of them would be of unnatural origin. Specific
information is provided for the pathogens known as anthrax, smallpox, plague, botulism,
tularemia, and hemorrhagic fevers.
These diseases can be deadly for humans and therefore even deadlier to aliens.
Having an understanding of these diseases and their prevention could help keep you
alive, while at the same time enabling them to be used effectively against invaders. I
think I ran out of ways to describe bioterrorism, pathogens, and extraterrestrials.

13.) Center for Biological Evaluation and Research, “Xenotransplantation Action Plan,”
U.S. Food and Drug Administration, http://www.fda.gov/cber/xap/xap.htm
(Accessed December 1, 2007).
This action plan concerns the process of xenotransplantation, which is the transplantation,
implantation, or infusion into a human being of living cells, tissues, or organs from a
nonhuman source. Takes into account the possibility of cross-species infections and
provides meeting transcripts and available documents and international information.
Current intelligence on extraterrestrials indicates a particular proclivity toward
experimentation of various sorts. If an aim of such experimentation is to discover the
physiology and more of human beings and other animals that inhabit the planet Earth,
xenotransplantation could be used. Since this a complicated process above the
understanding of many, this text will provide a basic introduction to this topic that could
come in useful.

14.) Center for Biological Evaluation and Research, “Use of Cloning Technology to
Clone a Human Being,” http://www.fda.gov/cber/genetherapy/clone.htm
(Accessed December 1, 2007).
This document presents cloning as a piece of the recent activity involved in the area of
scientific and biotechnological progresses. Presents information concerning the matter of
the ethical nature of a potential human clone, the current illegality of human cloning
under United States law, and also acknowledges that cloning could lead to medical
advances in research and practice.
While this technology (supposedly) has not been developed or used currently on
Earth, the possibility exists that extraterrestrials could have knowledge of its forms and
functions. This document can provide information about what is involved in the cloning
process and help one to recognize if they or another has been cloned.

afflict the human being. The genetics of over 200 various conditions are discussed in
detail, along with the normal functions and the rendered health effects of over 300 genes.
A glossary is present presenting definitions on medical and genetically important matters.
Genetics tie into the above entry, as they present a way that extraterrestrials could
seek to unravel the inner secrets of mankind. The Human Genome Project is a human
attempt to do this, which could inadvertently provide aid to the enemy. Genetic
engineering is a way to either help or hinder the human cause, and is a complicated
subject.

scientific repute in various media formats that contain information upon the subject of
Unidentified Flying Objects or UFOs. These formats include books, reference works,
conference proceedings, government publications, abstracts and indexes, journals and
journal articles, internet resources and other selected materials.
The purpose of including this resource on the list should be obvious, as it presents
current intelligence about the mode of transportation of beings of other worlds. General
reports seem to indicate similarities in the types of vehicles used, so the information
could become useful as a type of spotter’s chart, as well as providing information about
the performance and abilities of the craft.

(Accessed December 2, 2007).
A transcription of the daily news briefing by the Department of Defense concerning
various matters indicative of that day and questioning put forth by various media agents.
Pertinent questions to our topic were presented upon the nature of the contents of Area
51, a location often believed to contain materials of extraterrestrial origin. During the
course of the questioning the government through its spokesperson again denies that there
are any alien life forms or alien technology present at the aforementioned location.
While not providing precisely in-depth information about the goings on of the
base, it serves as a reminder that this could be an area of interest in the case of
extraterrestrial invasion. Being present at this site would most likely be dangerous, as the
potential concentration of alien technology would most likely provide an attraction.

scientific repute in various media formats that contain information upon the subject of
underground architecture. These formats include books, reference works, conference
proceedings, government publications, abstracts and indexes, journals and journal
articles, internet resources and other selected materials.
In case of extraterrestrial invasion, there exists the possibility that the surface
would become unfit for human habitation due to a variety of happenings. Therefore
carefully constructed underground shelters would be advisable for usage. Underground
shelter has been used in the past to great effect against bombardments of the past,
although this situation would present new challenges.

In case of extraterrestrial invasion, the power supply known as electricity would
most likely be a high value target for hostile parties. Therefore it would become
imperative that humanity access alternative forms of energy. Solar energy would be a
wise choice in this instance.

In case of extraterrestrial invasion, one may have to resort to alternate means of
survival in the area of foodstuffs. While a wide variety of plants possess excellent edible
and medicinal qualities, several also possess poisons within them. Knowing which plants
are safe and which are harmful could make the difference in whether one is able to outrun
the aliens, or whether one stops to run.
