For over fifty years an incident near Roswell, New Mexico, has sparked the imaginations of UFO enthusiasts. Did the military recover a crashed "flying saucer" there, along with several extraterrestrial bodies? Has the government gone to great lengths to hide the evidence? Over time these speculations have reached the status of unquestionable truths in the minds of many ufologists.
In this definitive study of the Roswell incident, longtime UFO researcher Karl T. Pflock-who is convinced that some UFO reports are real alien sightings-concludes, after an exhaustive investigation, that no alien craft or bodies were ever found at Roswell. Pflock admits at the outset that he too once strongly believed there might be something to the Roswell alien stories, and he describes how he then came to discover the whole truth. Using formerly classified records he proves that the U.S. government has absolutely no physical evidence of aliens, shows how critical weather data completely refute key claims of Roswell believers, and explains why the case now rises and falls on the testimony of just one witness, who cleverly manipulated leading investigators and continues to do so today.
Pflock's intensive research and access to once-classified documents-including facsimilies of important formerly classified documents, 28 witness affidavits, and the entire Pratt-Marcel interview transcript-make this book must reading even for UFO buffs-believers and skeptics alike- who feel they know everything about Roswell.

In this witty, erudite, and thoroughly researched book, art historian John Moffitt discusses the popular iconography depicting alleged extraterrestrial (ET) visitors and the widespread appeal of this New Age craze as a mass cultural phenomenon. A thorough skeptic, Moffitt is interested in kitschy ET portraiture, not as evidence of aliens among us, but for what this imagery reveals about contemporary culture. By brilliantly placing the present cultural moment in historical context, he demonstrates how typical portrayals of aliens reflect long-running (even ancient) cultural motifs.

Whether we realize it or not, among ET's precursors are the ecstatic maenads of ancient Greek art, early depictions of Christ in Byzantine icons, the religious visions shown in 15th-century Spanish paintings, and the popular images of witches and incubi from the 18th and 19th centuries. Today, in our postmodern space age, these timeless figures of imagination and art have taken on the otherworldly trappings of alien creatures. By the same token, centuries-old beliefs, whether in nature gods and goddesses, demons, witches, Satan, or saints, have evolved into the current New Age mythology that often surrounds the stories and pictures connected with aliens. Fueled by a huge entertainment industry, mass media, and the relentless profit drive of capitalism, alien imagery has become ubiquitous, and in the process the line between fantasy and reality ever harder to discern.

This sweeping and above all entertaining perusal of popular culture presents a sophisticated yet very accessible and often funny dissection of our current obsession with the possibility that "we are not alone."

As time goes on, man still has the same unanswered questions regarding the unknown phenomenon that's infected our planet. Without expectation, the unknown has appeared and disappeared without a clue as to what they are, who they are, and why they are here. We know there is an outer space beyond Earth which contains an endless mass of stars planets, asteroids, and moons. We call it the cosmos, which refers to everything in space including Earth. Is there anyone or anything out there besides us?

Evil has been discharged hither and thither, and as a result a war is being waged between the Light and the Dark. Powerful occult reptilian bloodlines have commandeered the corporate-mass-media and the military-industrial complex, the everyman no longer a free entity. Why these torturing gifts, and wherefore lent to the people? No reason except for the desire to dominate and suppress. It is an inkling the beasts of prey within man and reptile cannot control. Secret societies are the gatekeepers to a much greater secret that encompasses extraterrestrials and cultures spanning across dimensions. The labyrinth has already been entered - next stop, a closer inspection at money and the big business of Big Brother. Are there more cards up the magician's sleeve? Only one, and that is the possibility for enlightenment.

For many centuries, science and religion have remained staunchly independent. Whenever issues have developed that simultaneously touched on both areas, debate often ensued-for example, when scientists first proposed that the earth revolved around the sun, or when the theory of evolution was proposed. There has always been a cultural disconnect between science and religion that has caused dissention and distrust. Research conducted by author Fred R. David, however, reveals that the missing link between science and religion may be UFOs or, more specifically, the beings inside those crafts.

"The UFO-Christianity Connection: Fact or Fiction"

reveals that UFOs played a significant role in how ancient civilizations built megalithic structures and predicted celestial events perfectly; brings to life the close association that ancient civilizations had with ancient astronauts-whom they called gods or sky people;

reveals that many events described in ancient writings, including the Bible, involved UFO encounters;

gives readers a unique perspective to engage others in discussing angels, God, UFOs, Bigfoot, Satan, giants, the underworld, the flood, Atlantis, and Jesus.

The scientific information presented here is vital for people of all faiths on all continents. Explore the missing link that bridges the gap between science and religion.

In the first volume of his "Nonsense" Papers series, James W. Astrada explored the controversial discussion of extraterrestrial influence on the human species and planet Earth.

Now, on the precipice of the Digital Age, humanity is evolving at an astonishing rate-but are we evolving quickly enough to be entrusted with our advances? As we face the estimate that the human population may swell to ten billion by 2050, we must demand debate on how this finite planet can handle humanity's uncontrolled growth.

This second installment of Astrada's series continues to focus on humanity's perilous journey to connect with the power cosmic and abandon our primitive and ignorant beliefs of the paranormal and the mystic. It also looks at the origins of humanity, Darwinism, geo-engineering, the dangers inherent as humans try to "control" the weather, and more.

The race is on for the individual to ascend this reality we live in, to finally reconnect with the galactic families of sentient beings that await us if we try to master our humanity and all of its obstacles. Are we the greatest threat to our own existence? Are we ready for contact from another world?

In 2002, Grace J. Scott began to receive messages from those beyond the grave. Grace felt it her duty to record their voices, their thoughts, and even their warnings. Awakening of the Soul is the amazing result. This intriguing collection of channeled thoughts from souls in heaven, other planetary systems, and other universes will benefit those seeking spiritual growth as well as those wanting information about preparing for upcoming Earth changes. Much of the material is packed with information and requires time to read and digest while other material is simple and easily understood. Presented in chronological order as received in reflexology sessions, the conversations are completely original, unedited, and unorganized, straight from the spirit itself. Some spirits channeled big lessons for the general public or gave messages to individuals while some explained disasters, politics, wars, dreams, and events in our daily lives. But all of the souls have one thing in common: they bring news that Earth is cleansing itself at a rapid pace, and they are here to assist us through the cleansing and beyond. Epic in scope, Awakening of the Soul is a vital tool for those looking to the future and to the fate of Earth itself.

This irreverent, satirical look at the never-ending flying saucer controversy lampoons the full spectrum of the UFO "invasion," from the ancient astronaut theories to the evolution of today's alien abduction "epidemic."
From the first chapter, "Wheelbarrows of the Gods," readers see how a close look at prehistoric myths from around the world reveal common threads in each account. McHugh relates how Noah and his sons inadvertently caused aliens to flood the Earth for forty days and nights; how extraterrestrials gave Nostradamus his power, and how they influenced the success of the 1969 New York Mets. He traces the evolution of the alien abduction epidemic and offers a tongue-in-cheek quiz to determine if you have been abducted without realizing it.

With over a billion followers spread across the world, Islam today stands as the second largest and the fastest growing religion of our time. I wonder how many of these over one billion followers know that their religious scriptures mention spacecrafts that visited the deserts of Arabia during Prophet Muhammad's time. To most Muslims, it will come as a great surprise that the pagan Arabs, who opposed the Prophet, worshipped alien visitors from outer space! These alien visitors (or sky-gods as they were understood by pagan Arabs) are mentioned repeatedly in the Quran and the Hadeeth. Yet, in spite of their emphasized mention, the Muslim world has not been able to gather any concrete proof of their existence. In the absence of concrete scientific proof, these alien space travelers occupy Muslim conscience as spiritual beings. Concrete proof of the existence of UFOs has been gathered elsewhere in another part of the world. In the West, thousands of books have been written on the subject of UFOs but the real reasons for their visits to our world have still remained a mystery. Furthermore, UFO researchers today understand that governments of certain Western countries are concealing important information on UFOs, but the reasons for this global censorship have not been understood. It took courage to write this book and it will take courage to read it. Yet, one thing is for sure, UFOs in the Quran will blow your mind. At times it will amaze you, at times it will frighten you but for most part, it will just take the ground from under your feet. Abdul Aziz Khan is a television journalist whose news reports and documentaries have gone on air in many countries around the world. He is a former Field Investigator with MUFON, the worlds largest organization doing investigations into unexplained aerial phenomenon.

Examines each of these parameters in crucial depth and makes the argument that life forms we would recognize may be more common in our solar system than many assume. Considers exotic forms of life that would not have to rely on carbon as the basic chemical element, solar energy as the main energy source, or water as the primary solvent and the question of detecting bio- and geosignatures of such life forms, ranging from earth environments to deep space. Seeks an operational definition of life and investigate the realm of possibilities that nature offers to realize this very special state of matter. Avoids scientific jargon wherever possible to make this intrinsically interdisciplinary subject understandable to a broad range of readers.

Suppose you could communicate with a visitor who was not from this place, time-space or even this dimension? What would you want to ask them? The answers probably lie in what our own response would be if we were them. This book is based on a collection of interviews I have had with a few individuals who may have actually had such an experience. The idea is that if enough of us are ready to ask the questions and gain the answers, then our collective knowledge and understanding of the “ multiverse” about us can only continue to be enhanced. Sometimes the responses that you will read here are similar; often they are diametrically opposed to each other. An open but highly skeptical mind is extremely necessary if you are going to sift through the data that is presented in this book. The intent is that it should peak your curiosity to learn more about “ visitors.” In this way, we may be better informed and prepared, and thus in some sort of coherent shape to deal with their arrival. If you read this book, you must be well prepared to choose for yourself what you will or will not believe.

This book addresses important current and historical topics in astrobiology and the search for life beyond Earth, including the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI). The first section covers the plurality of worlds debate from antiquity through the nineteenth century, while section two covers the extraterrestrial life debate from the twentieth century to the present. The final section examines the societal impact of discovering life beyond Earth, including both cultural and religious dimensions. Throughout the book, authors draw links between their own chapters and those of other contributors, emphasizing the interconnections between the various strands of the history and societal impact of the search for extraterrestrial life. The chapters are all written by internationally recognized experts and are carefully edited by Douglas Vakoch, professor of clinical psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies and Director of Interstellar Message Composition at the SETI Institute. This interdisciplinary book will benefit everybody trying to understand the meaning of astrobiology and SETI for our human society.

This book is a collection of essays written by the very scientists and engineers who have led, and continue to lead, the scientific quest known as SETI, the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. Divided into three parts, the first section, 'The Spirit of SETI Past', written by the surviving pioneers of this then emerging discipline, reviews the major projects undertaken during the first 50 years of SETI science and the results of that research.

In the second section, 'The Spirit of SETI Present', the present-day science and technology is discussed in detail, providing the technical background to contemporary SETI instruments, experiments, and analytical techniques, including the processing of the received signals to extract potential alien communications.

In the third and final section, 'The Spirit of SETI Future', the book looks ahead to the possible directions that SETI will take in the next 50 years, addressing such important topics as interstellar message construction, the risks and assumptions of interstellar communications, when we might make contact, what aliens might look like and what is likely to happen in the aftermath of such a contact.
