Aldebaran
Aldebaran is the brightest star in the constellation Taurus and the fourteenth brightest star in the sky, identified in exopolitics testimony as the home star of the being known as Valiant Thor and as the source of the transmissions received by Vril Society medium Maria Orsic in the early 1920s — communications that purportedly conveyed technical schematics for advanced disc-shaped propulsion systems. The Aldebaran connection is central to the Vril Society and German occult-technical program narratives of the 1920s–1940s, and by extension to the origin story of the Dark Fleet — the alleged breakaway German space program that purportedly developed Aldebaran-channeled technology into operational disc craft.
Maria Orsic and the Aldebaran transmissions
Len Kasten situates the Aldebaran connection at the center of Nazi exotic technology development: in his account, medium Maria Orsic began receiving psychic transmissions at secret meetings of the Vril Society attended by Karl Haushofer, Adolf Hitler, and the key members of the Thule Society, and "it was determined that the messages were coming from two planets in the Aldebaran system that formed the Sumeran Empire." Kasten, drawing on Peter Moon's The Black Sun: Montauk's Nazi-Tibetan Connection, further states that "the ancient Sumerian language... was identical to that of the Aldebarans and that it was also similar to the German language."
Maria Orsic, a Vril Society medium based in Munich, reportedly received automatic writing transmissions in two unknown languages beginning around 1919–1922. One set was subsequently identified as ancient Sumerian; the other as an Aldebaran dialect. The translated content allegedly included technical instructions for a disc-shaped craft using torsion-field or gravity-control propulsion, along with astronomical data and references to beings from the Aldebaran system who had previously visited Earth and influenced ancient civilizations.
Per Michael Salla, the Orsic transmissions described a space-time propulsion device — technology he identifies as the direct precursor to both the Haunebu disc programs and to the Mars colonies the Dark Fleet is alleged to have established during and after the Second World War: "This is what would make interstellar travel possible and so that kind of takes us all back to Maria Orsic and her contacts with the Aldebarans who helped her develop a kind of space-time device... it was built and so I think that these kinds of technologies, they were developed by the Germans first and they use that to establish colonies on Mars."
Aldebaran Empire and Galactic Federation relations
Thor Han Eredyon, a Galactic Federation of Worlds officer whose communications are relayed by Elena Danaan, has described the Aldebaran Empire as among the NHI polities with the most regularized relationship to the Federation in the local stellar neighborhood — distinct from the Intergalactic Confederation, whose members operate at a level above the Federation's chain of command. In a 2023 conversation relayed by Danaan, Thor Han stated: "We have, as I would say, more reasonable relationships with the envoys of the Aldebaran Empire in this system. The others often change their thought. They have their own counsel." This framing distinguishes the Aldebaran Empire from the Intergalactic Confederation — described as the parent body that oversees the Galactic Federation itself and that does not always share its decisions in advance even with Federation officers.
Aldebaran reports by Elena Danaan
Elena Danaan's Encyclopedia Galactica documents beings from the Aldebaran system (designated different nomenclature in her material) as among the species active in the local stellar neighborhood. The Aldebaran system is approximately 65 light-years from Earth, making contact over interstellar distances possible only for civilizations with FTL capability — consistent with the Vril transmissions' description of beings who had previously visited Earth in the distant past.
Valiant Thor
The being Valiant Thor — described by Dr. Frank Stranges as having visited the Pentagon and met with President Dwight D. Eisenhower and other officials in the late 1950s — is identified in some contact accounts as originating from the Aldebaran system rather than from Venus as in other traditions. Laura Eisenhower, granddaughter of President Eisenhower, has described the meetings between the Eisenhower administration and various NHI delegations as involving multiple species, with the Venus-origin beings (including Valiant Thor) proposing cooperation to assist humanity in developing sovereign internal capabilities — a proposal that was ultimately blocked by the military-industrial apparatus.
Three civilizations of the Jada system
In A Gift from the Stars, the Aldebaran system — named Jada by its inhabitants — is described as hosting three main civilizations on a planetary system of thirteen worlds: an Anunnaki colony, an Ahel colony, and ninth-dimensional beings. The Anunnaki colony at Aldebaran — the Jadaii Anunakene — settled on the seventh planet (Kora 361, meaning "Outpost 361" in the Anunnaki language), a blue subtropical world with four moons. These are identified as an exiled Anunnaki colony who had previously inhabited a planet (Janos) located between Mars and Jupiter that was destroyed by the Maytrei; they are the beings who made contact with Terran psychic Maria Orsic in 1919, communicating in the ancient Sumerian language still in use among them. The Ahel colony at Aldebaran is one of the numerous post-Lyran-Wars Ahel settlements noted in Danaan's species catalog; the Ahel are described as having extended their race widely throughout the galaxy with Aldebaran among the predominant Ahel colony worlds.
Dark Fleet headquarters
Following the expulsion of the Dark Fleet from the Sol system in the early 2020s, Elena Danaan's Encyclopedia Galactica (2024) reports that the Dark Fleet relocated its galactic headquarters to the Aldebaran system. The Jadaii Anunakene Aldebaran colony is identified as having "played with both organizations" — meaning both the Galactic Federation and the Dark Fleet / Nachtwaffen — making it a politically complex node in the local stellar neighborhood. Earth US Dark Space Programs also maintain an outpost associated with this collective.
