THINK ABOUTIT’S ALIEN TYPE SUMMARY – Altimarians

According to Dr. Richard Boylan, twelve hybrid environmental scientists arrived quietly on Earth in 2007 and 2008, followed in 2016 by three million refugees fleeing a dying red dwarf star, who built a two-mile-wide underground settlement in the Utah desert. It’s an unusually specific story — named individuals, exact coordinates, precise dates — and it comes from a single self-published source that no other researcher or astronomer has ever corroborated.

Name: Altimarians

AKA: None documented as a self-designation in Boylan’s material

Location – Home System: Altimar, described by Boylan as a planet orbiting a red dwarf star in the same system as Barnard’s Star. No such red dwarf has been independently discovered or confirmed by astronomers.

Distance from Earth: Approximately 6 light-years, per Boylan’s account — roughly the real distance to Barnard’s Star itself

Attitude: Described by Boylan as benevolent, cooperative, and cautious about government hostility, having reportedly avoided contact with officials in the past due to poor treatment of other claimed visiting groups

Motives: Per Boylan, environmental remediation — reversing pollution and ecosystem damage — carried out in eventual partnership with human scientists, once conditions allow public disclosure

Physical Appearance: Per Boylan’s own description: “pure” Altimarians have a narrower head than the human-Altimarian hybrids he describes, with more cranial development toward the back, larger dark eyes with a slanted shape, thin bodies, and smooth skin lacking the fine hair the hybrids reportedly inherited from human genetics.

Average Height: Not given for “pure” Altimarians specifically; a related population Boylan calls “Variant Altimarians” is described as ranging roughly 5’2″–6’2″
Average Weight: Undocumented
Body Temperature: Undocumented
Pulse/Respiration: Undocumented
Blood Pressure: Undocumented
Life Expectancy: Undocumented
Hair: “Pure” Altimarians described as lacking the fine “baby down” hair Boylan attributes to the human-hybrid team members
Skin: Described by Boylan as smooth; no color is specified
Eyes: Large, dark, with visible iris and a slanted shape, per Boylan; not described as amber or violet
Sex: Boylan names both male and female individuals among the hybrid team (e.g., “Amanda” as Communications Officer)

Other Physical Information: A separate, related population Boylan calls “Variant Altimarians” is described with a proportionally larger head than humans (though smaller than the “Zeta” Grey type he references elsewhere) and four-fingered, boneless-appearing cartilaginous hands

Special Traits and Abilities: Telepathic communication, per Boylan, including with a team member he names as using telepathy to interface with both humans and what he describes as “elemental consciousnesses” in natural environments

Communication Type: Telepathy, alongside spoken human languages learned by the hybrid team members, per Boylan

Origin: The planet Altimar (Boylan also refers to it as “Altimar-4,” one of several claimed inhabited moons/planets in the system)

Life Form Type: Humanoid

Subspecies: Boylan describes multiple related populations across different claimed bodies in the same system: Altimar-3 (“Variant Altimarians”), Altimar-4 (the primary population discussed here), and Altimar-5. These are his own claimed distinctions, not an independently verified taxonomy.

Most Common Species: Undocumented

Level of Species: Undocumented; no formal civilizational rating appears in Boylan’s material

Habits: Per Boylan, a scientific team of twelve individuals with specialized roles (technology, botany, communications, administration) was reportedly sent to Earth in 2007–2008 specifically for environmental remediation work

Transportation Type: Boylan describes a mothership of roughly 23 hectares (about 56 acres) and a smaller scout craft roughly 60 by 40 yards, with cloaking capability and no onboard weapons, requiring a five-week transit time from Altimar to Earth

Witnesses Reports: The entirety of this entry traces to the self-published bulletins and website material of Dr. Richard Boylan. Boylan describes an initial arrival of twelve human-Altimarian hybrid scientists in 2007–2008, followed by a separate claimed 2016 landing of roughly three million Altimarian refugees in the U.S. Southwest desert near Capitol Reef National Park, Utah, where they reportedly established a two-mile by two-mile underground settlement extending roughly 1,700 feet into the bedrock. No independent witness, astronomer, or researcher outside Boylan’s own material corroborates any part of this account.

Special Features/Characteristics: A separate Boylan bulletin retroactively associates “Altimar” with WISE 0855-0714, a real brown dwarf discovered by astronomers in 2014 roughly 7.4 light-years from Earth. Real astronomical detection of this object (including atmospheric water-cloud signatures) is genuine science; its association with the Altimarians is Boylan’s own unverified addition, not a scientific finding.

Summary/Description: A detailed but entirely single-source narrative from Dr. Richard Boylan describing human-Altimarian hybrid environmental scientists and, later, a large refugee population settling on Earth. No other source, witness, or scientific finding corroborates any element of the account.

DETAILED REPORT

The Altimarians entry is a useful example of how a vague citation can obscure just how single-source a claim actually is. “Barnard’s Star Exopolitical Logs; private contactee archives” sounds institutional. What it actually refers to is one person’s self-published website and mailing-list bulletins, spanning roughly a decade, describing an increasingly elaborate narrative — twelve named scientists, then millions of refugees, then a separate population tied to Christian religious figures across two thousand years.

The previous version of this page also replaced Boylan’s own physical description with something he never wrote. Boylan describes narrow-headed, dark-eyed, thin-bodied beings; the page instead described amber-or-violet eyes, iridescent skin, and bioluminescent forearms. That’s not an embellishment of a thin source — it’s a physical description that contradicts the one named source the entry actually has.

RESEARCHER’S NOTES

One Author, Not an Archive — Altimar and the Vague Citation Problem

Source Chain Assessment: Every claim in this entry traces to a single named, self-published author. That’s more traceable than an anonymous compilation, but it also means the entry has exactly one uncorroborated source, not an “archive.”
Physical Description Contradiction: The previous draft’s invented physical details directly contradict Boylan’s own stated description — a more serious error than simply adding unsupported detail, since it misrepresents the one source available.
Real Science, Borrowed Credibility: Boylan’s later material attaches his mythology to a genuine 2014 astronomical discovery (WISE 0855-0714). The astronomy is real; its connection to Altimarians is entirely his own addition and shouldn’t borrow credibility from the real discovery.
Evidentiary Weight: No astronomer has confirmed a red dwarf matching Boylan’s description in the claimed location, and no independent witness has corroborated the 2016 Utah landing. This should be read as one person’s extended personal narrative, not documentation.

Traced to its actual source, the Altimarians story is stranger and more specific than the generic “benevolent eco-alien” profile that circulated in its place — named individuals, exact coordinates, a described physical form, and an escalating timeline spanning a decade. It’s also entirely the work of one author, uncorroborated by anyone else, and should be read that way.

Boylan describes their mission as “remedying the environmental damage which has occurred in so many of our ecosystems.”
