This question is addressed directly by Rashell of Temmer herself — one of the few Taygetan speakers who occupies an official diplomatic role rather than speaking purely in a personal capacity. Her account of the Vril Society involvement is one of the most concrete first-person testimonies in the entire Cosmic Agency archive.
Rashell's Position and Authority
Rashell is unique among the Taygetan speakers. While Swaruu of Erra explicitly states she does not represent Taygeta or the Federation and speaks only for herself, Rashell holds the opposite position: she is an official member of the High Council of Taygeta and serves as Taygeta's Ambassador to the Federation and to Earth. She formally represents both her civilisation and the Federation in diplomatic matters. It was largely through her own pressure that the Federation officially came to support Swaruu's disclosure work (032, Rashell of Temmer).
She is also personally distinctive — half Taygetan by mother and half Antarean by father, born in Temmer in the equivalent of 1832 Earth years, with dark brown hair, very white skin, and green eyes. She arrived in Earth orbit in 1952 as part of the first Taygetan expedition to Earth (032, Rashell of Temmer).
The Time Travel Mission to 1930s Germany
The Vril Society intervention was a time travel operation. Rashell explains that the Taygetans arrived in Earth orbit in 1952 in response to a Federation-wide alert triggered by the detonation of nuclear weapons during World War II. Nuclear detonations affect multiple existential dimensions simultaneously — what is termed "scalar" — making them a concern far beyond the physical plane (032, Rashell of Temmer).
Upon examining the situation from orbit, the Taygetans sent two crews of hunting ships with "Sand Clock" time-travel capability back from 1952 to 1937 to infiltrate German society and attempt to divert the Nazi development that had triggered both the war and nuclear weapons research. The mission consisted of fourteen people — two crews of seven, men and women, in two ships (032, Rashell of Temmer).
Maria Orsich — the historical figure associated with the Vril Society — was actually Savya of Erra, a Taygetan. She was the leader of the expedition. Rashell herself was also present, though she does not believe she appears in the surviving photographs. The Taygetans' physical appearance made infiltrating German society straightforward (032, Rashell of Temmer).
The Mission's Purpose and Outcome
Rashell is emphatic that the true story has been distorted. What appears from the Earth perspective to be collaboration with the Nazis was actually an attempt to alter the course of events. The mission succeeded in halting the advancement of Nazi heavy water laboratories and their nuclear bomb research (032, Rashell of Temmer).
However, the mission was only partially successful. The broader timeline could not be fully altered — as Swaruu later explained, the collective timeline cannot simply be changed. According to Swaruu, even if the Germans had developed the bomb first, the result would have been essentially the same because while Germany lost the war, the Nazis won — they simply emigrated to the United States (032, Rashell of Temmer).
Federation Authorisation
The Federation accepted the Taygetan intervention because it was classified as a surgical mission. The legal justification was based on stopping the use of nuclear energy in general — not only for war purposes. This justification cancelled many subsections of the Federation's non-intervention rules and is described as the primary cause of the mass arrival of Federation forces from 1952 onward. Nuclear energy in human hands is the fundamental reason the Federation remains present at Earth to this day (032, Rashell of Temmer).
Helping Humanity or the Federation?
The answer to the original question is that the distinction is somewhat artificial. The Taygetans were helping both, because from their perspective the interests aligned: stopping nuclear proliferation served humanity's survival and the Federation's mandate simultaneously. The mission was not motivated by strategic advantage for the Federation but by the genuine threat that nuclear energy posed across multiple dimensions.
The crews could only stay on the surface for periods of no more than two weeks before returning to orbit. The 3D environment caused physical distress — Rashell describes it as feeling "doughy all over," sick and slow, with oppressive gravity making them weak. The energy was depressing and lowered their vibration, causing them to begin manifesting negative experiences. This physical toll underscores that the intervention was not casual or self-serving — it required genuine sacrifice from the participants (032, Rashell of Temmer).
After the Vril: Rashell Meets Eisenhower
The Vril Society mission was not the end of Rashell's involvement with Earth. After the Taygetans arrived in orbit in 1952, the Federation contacted the Pentagon by overriding radio frequencies — the only way to establish credible contact at the time. As a Federation representative with English proficiency, Rashell was proposed as the contact person (033, Rashell of Temmer).
The first meeting took place at Edwards Air Force Base, California, on February 18, 1954. Rashell landed a 22-metre Class III discoidal ship in front of Eisenhower's twin-engine Lockheed Electra. She proposed that Taygeta would provide free energy reactors and electrical transmission for all of humanity in exchange for total nuclear disarmament. Eisenhower refused, insisting the Russians would gain an advantage, and terminated the meeting abruptly. Rashell notes that her appearance as a young woman likely contributed to Eisenhower's dismissive attitude, and the Taygetans later acknowledged in their records that sending an armed male representative would have been more effective (033, Rashell of Temmer).
A second meeting took place on the night of February 20-21, after the Taygetans threatened to approach the Russians instead. This adds context to the Vril answer: the same person who led the infiltration of 1930s Germany later attempted direct diplomacy with the American president, and both approaches met with limited success.
Broader Context: Treaties and Consequences
Rashell provides additional context about the political landscape. After the Taygetan intervention in the 1930s-1940s, subsequent treaties were made: Nazi Germany signed agreements with regressive extraterrestrial races in the 1930s, and in the 1950s, Eisenhower made a treaty exchanging technology for freedom to exploit the human population through abductions and experiments. The Taygetans still do not fully understand Eisenhower's role — he appeared to be both inside the Cabal and to have tried to alert the population and government about the Cabal's dangers (032, Rashell of Temmer).
The Cold War itself was fabricated, with the Cabal controlling both the American and Russian sides. About forty extraterrestrial ships of diverse origins were shot down between the 1940s and 1970s — none from Taygeta, as Taygetan ships had multiple propulsion systems and better protection than the smaller ships used by other races (032, Rashell of Temmer).
