# Steven Greer's CE-5 photographs identify four purported beings from 2009 to 2017

### Overview

A newly published post catalogues four photographs associated with **Steven M. Greer’s CE-5 activities between 2009 and 2017**, presenting the subjects as purported nonhuman or extraterrestrial beings. The images are identified as **“Bijou,” an alleged Andromedan ambassador; a light being; a Mt. Shasta being; and a healer**. The material, published by *Alien Archivist* on November 1, 2026, attributes the interpretations to Greer or accounts connected with his organizations. However, the source provides **no independent verification, technical analysis, or corroborating testimony** establishing that the images depict extraterrestrial entities.

Greer, an American physician and UFO researcher, founded the **Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence (CSETI)** in 1990 and later established the **Disclosure Project**, which focuses on testimony involving UFOs and alleged extraterrestrial activity. His CE-5, or “Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind,” protocols are intended to facilitate human-initiated contact through meditation, group intention and related practices. CSETI expeditions have generated photographs and personal reports that participants interpret as evidence of contact.

### The Joshua Tree Photograph

The earliest case discussed in the post dates to a CSETI expedition at **Joshua Tree National Park, California, on November 17, 2009**. According to the account, CSETI member **Raven Nabulsi** photographed an area beside the group’s chairs at approximately 11:31 p.m. CSETI released the image publicly in 2010 and described the figure visible in the photograph as an extraterrestrial being encountered during the event.

The source emphasizes that the **original account did not identify the figure as “Bijou” or describe it as originating from Andromeda**. That association was reportedly made later, when Greer presented the same figure as “Bijou,” characterized as an ambassador from the Andromeda Galaxy. The distinction is significant because it separates the contemporaneous description of the photograph from a subsequent interpretation attached to it.

### Four Purported Beings

The post groups the Joshua Tree image with additional photographs attributed to CE-5 activities conducted from 2009 through 2017. The other subjects are labelled **“the Light Being,” “the Mt. Shasta Being,” and “the Healer.”** The supplied material reproduces a series of images and links to hosted versions, but the excerpt does not provide detailed dates, locations, photographers or original case reports for each of those three categories.

Those labels reflect the claims and framework surrounding Greer’s CE-5 work rather than identities established through an independent investigative process. In particular, terms such as “ambassador,” “healer” and “light being” are descriptive or interpretive designations. They do not, by themselves, demonstrate that the photographed figures represent biological organisms, visitors from another star system or entities encountered during a controlled contact event.

### Evidence and Context

The photographs’ evidentiary value remains unresolved based on the information provided. The source does not report an authenticated chain of custody for the files, unedited camera originals, metadata examinations, witness interviews beyond the cited account, or analysis by photographic and scientific specialists. It also does not address possible conventional explanations, including lighting conditions, camera artifacts, nearby objects, deliberate staging or image manipulation.

Accordingly, the images are best described as **photographs associated with Greer’s CE-5 claims**, not as verified evidence of extraterrestrial contact. The post contributes to the historical record of how the images have been presented and how their identities may have evolved over time, particularly in the case of Bijou. Confirming the claims would require independently accessible source documentation, reproducible image analysis and corroborating evidence beyond the assertions of participants.
