There has been much controversy around the photographs and story that Meier allegedly put a hole through a tree using a laser pistol loaned to him by the Plejaren, who claimed that it was actually a very old weapon of theirs (see And Still They Fly colour plates some of which are shown below).
围绕这些…据称是Meier从「Plejaren/昴宿星人」那里借来的一把镭射手枪在一棵树上穿出一个洞的…照片和故事，引发了许多争议，后者（即：「Plejaren/昴宿星人」）声称这把镭射枪实际上是他们的一种非常古老的武器（参见：「And Still They Fly」的彩色照片，其中几张随文展示）。
Reproduced below is Wendelle Stevens’ own written account of the enigmatic episode:
如下转载自「Wendelle Stevens」自己对这一神秘事件的书面描述：
照片一：Alena手持一把镭射枪
拍摄时间：1977年07月06日
拍摄地点：「SSSC/Semjase银星中心」
拍摄执行：Billy Meier
拍摄备注：这张照片是Billy在078#接触期间拍摄的，Alena当时手持一把镭射枪，Alena即遮镜区域的女性。
“When I first saw these laser pistol photos I had serious misgivings about them and the whole story of this so-called “ancient weapon".
“当我第一次看到这些激光手枪的照片时，我对这些照片以及这个所谓的‘ancient weapon/古老武器’的整个故事…都抱有严重的疑虑。”
But then Eduard Meier took me to the place in the Frecht Nature Preserve, near Hinwil, where he had tested the first one.
但后来，Eduard Meier带我去了「Hinwil」附近（的）「Frecht Nature Preserve/弗雷奇特自然保护区」的一个地方，他（之前）在那里试射了第一枪。
He showed me a seared line of vegetation that went in a true straight line until it struck an embankment and stopped.
他（先是）向我展示了一条…沿着一条真正笔直的直线前进的…被烧焦的植被线，直到它被路边的一处筑堤挡住了去路。
He showed me another, and then a limb high above our heads on a tall tree over 60 feet tall, that was severed cleanly at a place about 45 feet above the ground and 20 feet out from the trunk, where the branch was about one inch in diameter.
然后，他又向我展示了另一处射击现场，在一棵树高超过60英尺的大树上，有一根高过我们头顶…直径有1英尺的…树枝，被干净利落地切（/熔）断，该树枝所处的具体位置，是在地面以上约45英尺并距离这棵大树的（主）树干约20英尺的地方。
The severed part of the branch was still lying on the ground where it had fallen, and I picked it up and examined it.
树枝被切（/熔）断的部分，还呆在它之前坠落在地面的位置上，我把它捡起来并查看了一下。
照片二：Alena手持一把镭射枪
拍摄时间：1977年07月06日
拍摄地点：「SSSC/Semjase银星中心」
拍摄执行：Billy Meier
拍摄备注：这张照片是Billy在078#接触期间拍摄的，Alena当时手持一把镭射枪，Alena即遮镜区域的女性，这次是在Billy的一间办公室里拍摄的。
It was severed cleanly without any fraying but the most noticeable thing about it was the thin layer of seared wood at the break.
它被切（/熔）得干净利落，没有任何碎面，但最引人注目的是…在断面上有一层薄薄的烧焦木质。
The charring was no more than 1 inch to 1 1/4 inch deep into the wood, all the way through the branch, and the searing of the bark was likewise very narrow at the break, and so sudden and quick that the sap in the bark did not bubble out and run.
碳化部分的木材深度不超过1英寸到1/4英寸，贯穿树枝，被烧焦的树皮在切（/熔）口处同样十分狭窄，灼烧是如此的突然和迅速，使得树皮中的汁液并没有冒泡溢出。
Certainly no blow-torch could have done this, and how would a one-armed man get himself or any equipment up to such a fragile and high up position in the big tree?
当然，没有‘blow-torch/喷灯’能做到这一点，且一个独臂的男人又如何能让自己又或是把任何设备抬升至…在这颗大树上…一个如此陡峭且居高的位置上的呢？
The trees grew so close together here and in such a way that no vehicle could get through without removing some trees first, and that would certainly have been evident.
这里的树木生长得如此紧密，在这种情况下任何车辆都不可能…在不先行移走一些树木的前提下…（就）通行其中，这是显而易见的。
照片三：Alena手持一把镭射枪
拍摄时间：1977年07月06日
拍摄地点：「SSSC/Semjase银星中心」
拍摄执行：Billy Meier
拍摄备注：这张照片是Billy在078#接触期间拍摄的，Alena当时手持一把镭射枪，Alena即遮镜区域的女性，这次是从另外一个角度拍摄的。
“The weapon was neither made of metal, nor plastic, nor ceramic, any other substance recognizable in our technology, but most nearly like the composition of a solid nylon block, or bearing.
“这件武器既不是用金属，也不是用塑料，更不是用陶瓷，又或是用任何其它…在我们的技术中…可以被识别出来的物质…制造而成的，但很像是由尼龙块或轴承组成的。
It was smooth to the touch and felt a little slick.
它的手感很圆润，摸起来有点光滑。
It seemed to be made of one piece and was composed of two colors of the same material, a grayish-tan and a rosy-pink or pinkish red end of the barrel and a chamber on the top.
它似乎是由一个（整）部件组成的，并包含相同材料的两种颜色，一种是（枪体）上方‘枪机’处的‘grayish-tan/灰黄褐色’，另一种则是枪管末端的玫瑰红色或品红色。
“When Ray Stanford, of Project Starlight, saw these pictures in my home in Tucson in 1979, he insisted the gun was a plastic toy weapon and that it could be proved that the color of the muzzle of the weapon was the same color as the freshly painted red fence in Meier’s yard, also seen in the pictures.
”1979年，当「Project Starlight/星光计划」的Ray Stanford在我位于「Tucson/图森市」的家中看到这些照片时，他坚持认为这种枪就是一种塑料玩具枪，这件武器枪口处的颜色与Meier院子里新油刷的栅栏的红色相同（这一点）…可以证明他的这个观点，同样见于图片。
This, however, was not seen to be true in the same photos for the fence was painted with a glossy blood red enamel, whereas the muzzle of the weapon was a flat rosy-red color.
然而，这在相同的照片中却看不出两者是一致的，因为栅栏上刷的是带有光泽的血红色瓷漆，而武器枪口处却是平淡的玫瑰红色。
照片四：Alena手持一把镭射枪
拍摄时间：1977年07月06日
拍摄地点：「SSSC/Semjase银星中心」
拍摄执行：Billy Meier
拍摄备注：这张照片是Billy在078#接触期间拍摄的，Alena当时手持一把镭射枪，Alena即遮镜区域的女性，这次是从又一个角度拍摄的。
“But Ray did not know that we had been there and seen the color and the finish of the painted fence ourselves.
“但是，Ray并不知道我们曾去过那里，并亲眼见证过油漆的颜色以及栅栏油刷工作的完成。
Nor did he know that we had been to every toy supplier in Switzerland and failed to find any toy weapon anything like the laser pistol Meier photographed.
他也不知道：我们曾去过「Switzerland/瑞士」的每一家玩具供应商那里，却没有找到任何与…Meier照片中所示的镭射手枪…相似的玩具枪或是其它什么东西。
A search of sporting good stores was equally fruitless.
对体育用品店的搜索，同样没有任何收获。
To this day we have never found a match for that laser pistol.
直到今天，我们也从未找到一把和（Alena所持的那把）镭射手枪相匹配的玩具枪或其它什么东西。
“But just as intriguing was our search for a gold Mylar jacket that might look like the one Alena is wearing in the picture with her arm holding the gun.
”不仅如此，同样有趣的是，我们在寻找一件金色Mylar夹克（看起来就像是照片中手持镭射枪的Alena所穿的那件）的过程中，同样一无所获。
We looked in all the clothing stores, all the sporting good stores, and even checked the uniform supply stores for such a jacket, or even such gold material as might be necessary to make such a jacket, like the arm of the one worn by Alena as she holds the pistol for Meier’s photographs.
我们在所有的服装店，所有的体育用品店都找了个遍，我们甚至尝试在制服店也找一找这样的夹克，又或甚至是寻找…制作那样一件夹克（就像照片中手持镭射手枪让Meier拍照的Alena，她的一只手臂上所展示的她穿的那件夹克那样）…所需要的金色面料。
We never found anything like it.
我们从未找到任何与之相似的东西。
照片五：Billy在树干上使用镭射枪击出的树洞
拍摄时间：1977年07月06日
拍摄地点：「SSSC/Semjase银星中心」
拍摄执行：Billy Meier
拍摄备注：这张照片是Billy在078#接触结束后不久拍摄的，注意这个洞是椭圆形的，也就是说，这不可能由一把钻头完成。
“Then there is the problem of the hole in the tree.
“树洞本身就存在一个问题。
The tree was a good 10″ to 12″ in diameter, and the tree was green and full of sap.
这棵树是一颗直径在10英寸到12英寸，生机盎然并充满汁液的健康树。
How would a man with one arm bore such a hole?
而一个只有一只胳膊的男人，又如何能钻出这么一个洞呢？
An auger bit would have been impossible because it would surely bind in a hole that long in a living tree.
一个螺旋钻头（也）是不可能的，因为它肯定会卡在那里，并长在这棵活树上。
How would Meier hold it?
Meier如何控制它呢？
How would he turn it?
他如何转动它呢?
Where would he get an auger bit 12″ long by 1″ in diameter, a non-standard size that would have to be special ordered and made up by a tool maker?
（除此之外…这个树洞）还是一个非标准的尺寸，必须向工具制造商特殊定制才能制作出来，那他又是从哪儿弄到这么一个长12英寸、直径1英寸的螺旋钻头的呢？
This would leave tracks that could be later traced.
（更不用说）这会留下…稍后可以被追踪到的…痕迹。
And the hole in the tree had to be made in 20 minutes or less and all equipment removed and hidden, never to be discovered again in that short time available.
不仅如此，树上的洞也必须在20分钟或更短的时间以内被挖出来，且所有的设备都要被（马上）移除并隐藏起来，并做到在那么短的时间内不会被再次发现才行。
照片六：Billy使用镭射枪击中的那颗苹果树
拍摄时间：1977年07月06日
拍摄地点：「SSSC/Semjase银星中心」
拍摄执行：Billy Meier
拍摄备注：这张照片是Billy在078#接触结束后不久拍摄的，照片所示，可能是Jacobus正站在那里指向这棵树树干上的击穿孔（/熔洞）。
“Jacobus came on the scene with Meier crouched at the tree examining the still smoking hole that had been burned cleanly through the center of the big tree trunk.
”来到现场的Jacobus和Meier站在树边，俯身查看仍在冒烟的树洞，该树洞被干净利落地从这棵大树的树干中间熔穿。
The charring was superficial but clear through the tree and out the other side.
碳化层很浅，但清楚地穿透树干直达另一边。
Then the hole in the tree, which a man could insert his thumb into, was not completely round inside, but somewhat oval in some places, like the hole made by pouring hot water into a snow bank.
不仅如此，树干上的熔洞，可以容下一名男性的拇指，它内部并不完全是圆的，而是有些地方是椭圆形的，就好像把热水倾倒进雪堆时所融化出的洞那样。
And the charring through light and penetrating into the wood no more than 1/4″ or less, was uniform throughout, including the front entrance and the rear exit from the trunk.
并且由镭射造成的炭化层深入木质本身不超过1/4英寸或更少，整个熔道是均匀的，包括树干的前入口和后出口。
And the dark soil behind the tree, in line-of-sight through the hole, was still smoking and fused.
通过这个洞的视线，可以看到树后方的黑色土壤，仍在冒烟并被熔融。
I am not taking anybody else’s word for this because I was there a short time later and personally examined all for myself.
（在此期间…）我并没有接受任何其他人有关于此的讲话，因为我在那次接触结束后很短的时间里就到了那里，并（在现场）亲自检查了一切。
“For Ray Stanford to say that this was a toy pistol off-the-cuff and without investigation was irresponsible but typical of Ray.
“对于Ray Stanford轻描淡写地未经调查就将照片中的镭射枪说成是一把玩具手枪的行为，我认为这很不负责任，但这就是Ray做事的风格。
He even mentioned this “toy pistol" in writing later as proof that the Meier case was invalid.
后来，他甚至还在自己的著作中提到这把‘toy pistol/玩具手枪’，并将其作为Meier案例的无效证据。
Many others have taken the same position on this case with equally invalid and unconsidered statements.
许多其他人（也）同样采用无效（证据）且未经考虑的‘statements/声明’，对该案例采取了相同的立场。
To our knowledge, none of them have ever undertaken any on scene investigation to support their armchair statements.
（但是…）据我们所知，他们中没有任何一个人着手进行过任何的现场调查，以此支持他们那些站不住脚的‘statements/声明’。
“We think investigators should make very responsible statements and back them up with some kind of evidence, which simply does not seem to happen with this case in Switzerland.
”我们认为调查人员应该做出非常负责任的‘statements/声明’，并以某种证据支持这些‘statements/声明’，然而，这种情况在「Switzerland/瑞士」似乎根本就不会发生。
“One well known UFO researcher who claimed he went there to see for himself, actually went to Zurich for 3 days on other business, and then took a half a day out and went down to Wetzikon to talk to Hans Jacob, a man suspected of informing the police on Meier’s contact rendezvous, who was then asked to leave the group.
“一位著名的「UFO/不明飞行物」研究员，‘claimed/声称’他亲自去那里看了看，但实际上，他是去「Zurich/苏黎世」从事了3天其它的商务活动，然后仅抽出半天时间，南下到「Wetzikon」去找Hans Jacob谈话，一个被怀疑（之前）向警方通报了Meier（与「Plejarens/昴宿星人」）接触会合点的男人，在那之后，这个人被要求离开（FIGU）组织。
Hans was in the group when Meier took the tree-circling photos at Fuchsbuel-Hofhalden, and he took the UFO researcher to that site near Wetzikon, or tried to, but couldn’t find the place again; or so he told me when I visited him a couple of days later.
当Meier在「Fuchsbuel」-「Hofhalden」拍摄环绕一棵树盘旋的「UFO/不明飞行物」时，Hans Jacob还在组织内，他把「UFO/不明飞行物」研究人员带到了（位于）「Wetzikon」附近的那个地点（即：Billy与「Plejarens/昴宿星人」约定的会合点）；（在那之后的）几天后，我拜访了他，他告诉了我当时的大致情况：他（当时）尝试找到那个会合点，却怎么也找不到了。
It is in the “investigations" by this man, and others like him, that MUFON relies for their information on the Meier case."
而「MUFON」正是依靠从…这个人（即：Hans Jacob），以及其他像他这样的人所作的‘investigations/调查’中…所获取到的信息，来描述Meier案例的。”

In Michael Hesemann’s article in Magazin 2000plus magazine, Billy stated :
在Michael Hesemann发表在「Magazin 2000plus」杂志上的文章中，Billy这样说道：
‘Billy’ Eduard Albert Meier:
‘Billy’ Eduard Albert Meier：
“I was permitted to photograph a laser pistol with which I shot a hole through the trunk of a dying apple tree that miraculously began to bloom a short time later and bear fruit again ever since, something it had not done for years."
“我（当时）被允许拍摄一把镭射手枪，并使用该镭射手枪在一棵垂死的苹果树的树干上射出一个洞，在那之后不久，这颗苹果树竟奇迹般地开始繁盛，并从那时起又结出了果实，而在此之前，这棵树已经很多年没有结出果实了。”
