The Believer is the weird and chilling true story of Dr. John Mack.
This eminent Harvard psychiatrist and Pulitzer Prize-winning
biographer risked his career to investigate the phenomenon of human
encounters with aliens and to give credibility to the stupefying
tales shared by people who were utterly convinced they had
happened. Nothing in Mack's four decades of psychiatry had prepared
him for the otherworldly accounts of a cross section of humanity
including young children who reported being taken against their
wills by alien beings. Over the course of his career his interest
in alien abduction grew from curiosity to wonder, ultimately
developing into a limitless, unwavering passion. Based on exclusive
access to Mack's archives, journals, and psychiatric notes and
interviews with his family and closest associates, The Believer
reveals the life and work of a man who explored the deepest of
scientific conundrums and further leads us to the hidden dimensions
and alternate realities that captivated Mack until the end of his
life.
Beginning in the 1950s, alleged sightings of unidentified flying
objects in Canadian skies bred tension between the state and its
citizens. While the public demanded to know more about the
phenomenon, government officials appeared unconcerned and
unresponsive. Suspicion of government deepened among certain
sectors of Canadian society in the decades that followed, leading
to demands for greater public transparency and a new kind of
citizen activism. In Search for the Unknown Matthew Hayes uncovers
the history of the Canadian government's investigations into
reports of UFOs, revealing how these reports were handled,
deflected, and defended from 1950 to the 1990s. During this period
Canadians filed more than 5,000 reports of UFO sightings - many
with striking descriptions and illustrations - with branches of
government and law enforcement. Although the government conducted
some exploratory studies, officials were unable to solve the
mystery of UFOs or provide satisfactory answers about their alleged
existence, and they soon declared the matter closed. Dissatisfied
citizens responded by taking matters into their own hands, starting
UFO clubs and civilian investigation groups, and accusing the
government of a cover-up. A mutual mistrust developed between
citizens who were suspicious of their government and officials who
dismissed their fears and anxieties. This provided fertile ground
for anti-authoritarian attitudes and the cultivation of conspiracy
theories. In an era of political division, and amid heightened
awareness of states' responsibilities for their citizens, Search
for the Unknown reveals the challenges that governments face in
responding to public anxieties and preserving trust in public
institutions.
Seeking the truth about UFOs in America, Mark Pilkington and John
Lundberg uncover a 60 year-old story stranger than any conspiracy
thriller. Through the fascinating account of their quest Mark
Pilkington reveals the long history of UFOria and its parallels in
little known tales from the murky worlds of espionage,
psychological warfare and advanced military technology. Along the
way he discovers that the truth about flying saucers is stranger
and more complex than either the ufologists or debunkers would have
us believe. As he crossed the US meeting intelligence agents,
disinformation specialists and UFO hunters Pilkington was
confronted with a dizzying array of ever more outrageous claims and
counter claims. As a result he began to suspect that, instead of
covering up stories of crashed flying saucers, alien contacts and
secret underground bases, the US intelligence agencies had actually
been promoting them all along. Meanwhile he has to deal with his
own uncertainties, the suspicions of the UFO community and a
partner who is starting to believe that conspiracy theorists might
be right after all. With a fresh, funny and objective approach,
Pilkington is the ideal guide to steer us through these strange
territories, where nothing is quite as it seems and reality is just
a matter of managing perceptions.

The first, comprehensive military history of armed confrontations
between humans and extraterrestrials Although close encounters with
alien space craft are reported as far back as the reign of Pharaoh
Thutmosis III in Egypt, it wasn't until the 20th century that UFO
sightings and extraterrestrial encounters were truly documented,
due to advances in technology and record-keeping as well as the
vast increase in incidents, particularly with military forces.
Revealing his extensive research and the verifiable evidence he's
discovered, Frank Joseph presents a comprehensive military history
of armed confrontations between humans and extraterrestrials in the
20th and 21st centuries. He explains how, with the development of
atomic bombs and ballistic missiles, the frequency of
extraterrestrial intervention in human affairs increased
dramatically. He documents incidents both famous and little known,
including the explosive demolition of U.S. munitions factories in
1916 by unearthly aerial vehicles, the Red Baron's dogfight with a
UFO during World War I, "foo fighter" sightings and battles with
Allied and Axis combatants during World War II, and eye-witness
reports from encounters during the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the
Gulf War in Iraq, and the ongoing hostilities in the Middle East.
The author also examines recent, 21st-century examples of alien
interdiction in Earthly affairs, such as the meltdown of the
Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in Japan and the fiery abort of
Elon Musk's Falcon 9 missile launch, both events accompanied by
UFOs. Offering complete disclosure of the multitude of ET events
over the past century, Frank Joseph gives us the first true
reference book in the field of alien military encounters.
We have neighbors in the universe. Does it Rain in Other
Dimensions? This title describes one man's experience of
communicating and working with other-dimensional and
extra-terrestrial beings over a 50 year period. It shows how he
worked through the fear some experiences engendered to find a new
spiritual perspective. Use the symbols in this book, that were
given to the author by Light Beings, to aid your own
consciousness-awakening process and be ready for the coming Shift.
The Arcturians, speaking through Norma, have sent Earthlings a
gentle message regarding their purpose for being here. They claim
they are here to assist Earth as it enters a New Age of
spirituality. They cannot interfere with the free will or
decision-making process of any Earthling, but are here to educate
and help raise the vibrations of all who choose to journey to the
new dimension the Earth is entering.
The Raelians came to the attention of the world in 2002 when the
spokesperson for Clonaid, a company founded by Raelian followers,
announced that the first human clone had been born--a claim that
although has not been independently substantiated, prompted outrage
and condemnation from scientists, religious organizations, and the
White House. Aliens Adored is the first full length, in-depth look
at the Raelian movement, a fascinating new religion founded in the
1970s by charismatic prophet, Rael. Born in France as Claude
Vorilhon, the former race-car driver started the religion after he
experienced a visitation from the aliens (the "elohim") who, in his
cosmology, created humans by cloning themselves. The millenarian
movement awaits the return of the alien creators, and in the
meantime seeks to develop the potential of its adherents through
free love, sexual experimentation, opposition to nuclear
proliferation and war, and the development of the science of
cloning. Sociologist Susan J. Palmer has studied the Raelian
movement for more than a decade, observing meetings and rituals,
and enjoying unprecedented access to the group's leaders as well as
to its rank-and-file members. In Aliens Adored she provides a
thorough analysis of the movement, focusing on issues of sexuality,
millenarianism, and the impact of the scientific worldview on
religion and the environment. Palmer traces Rael's philosophy and
the formation of the Raelian subculture. Rael's radical sexual
ethics, his gnostic anthropocentricism, and shallow ecotheology
offer us a mirror through which we see how our worldviews have been
shaped by the forces of globalization, postmodernism, and secular
humanism.

The existence of UFOs is a phenomenon that intrigues and
captivates, yet it generates more scepticism than acceptance.
Witnesses of unconventional craft are often disbelieved and even
ridiculed. Belief in the existence of UFOs is obviously not yet
mainstream, but that may one day change. Over the past few decades,
reports of UFO sightings have dramatically increased in North
America. Further, these sightings have been observed to be more
blatant and even menacing. Some reports even imply that these craft
are monitoring our planet. This book explores the details of
numerous sightings from a scientific viewpoint, including
descriptions of craft, luminous sheaths and fireballs. Johnstone
suggests that military and government agencies have the ability to
manipulate weather electromagnetically and with chemtrails to deter
unconventional craft. This hypothesis also explains erratic changes
in the weather in the last few years. Is the US government creating
a weather shield to deter UFOs from entering the earth's
atmosphere? Take a look at the evidence.
Sharing more than 200 never-before-published full-color photographs
from his personal archives, bestselling author Erich von Daniken
provides clear evidence of ancient alien contact and technology
among the archaeological sites of the Maya as well as other ancient
cultures, such as the Aztecs and the Hindus. He reveals how the
"gods" immortalized in Maya sculptures, carved reliefs, and myth
were not supernatural beings but technologically advanced visitors,
astronauts who gifted the Maya with their sophisticated
understanding of calendar time and cosmology. He explains how, with
no explanation for their technologies and origins, the Maya
interpreted the visitors as divine and, thus, the "gods" were born.
Offering visual proof of the ancient world's contact with advanced
alien visitors they recorded as gods and teachers, von Daniken also
raises the question of the "heavenly" origins of royal families and
dynasties in Mesoamerica, Egypt, and beyond, revealing how the
Mayan kings of Palenque and the pharaohs of Egypt may be
descendants of the "gods."
The evidence in this book may not ultimately give you the "smoking
gun" you are looking for on your journey, but I guarantee it will
give you a box of bullets when you find it. In 1996, John
Greenewald, Jr. began researching the secret inner workings of the
U.S. Government at the age of fifteen. He targeted such agencies as
the CIA, FBI, Pentagon, Air Force, Army, Navy, NSA, DIA, and
countless others. Greenewald utilized the Freedom of Information
Act (FOIA) to gain access to more than two million pages of
documents. This archive includes information relating to UFOs, the
JFK Assassination, chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons, and
top secret aircraft. He took the millions of pages, and over the
course of more than two decades, has built an archive known around
the world, as The Black Vault. Inside The Black Vault: The
Government's UFO Secrets Revealed takes you on a journey within the
secret world of unidentified aerial phenomenon that has plagued the
military since at least the 1940s. Declassified records prove that
the UFO topic is one of the most highly classified and most elusive
subjects the U.S. Government has ever dealt with. Each chapter
explores various agencies and their documents, and Greenewald
breaks down the meaning of why some of the most important documents
are relevant to proving a massive cover-up. Along with declassified
documents, Greenewald outlines the struggle it took him to get
them. No other topic has proven so difficult, in more than 8,000
FOIA requests that he has filed. He explores why that might be and
meets skeptics and debunkers head on, outlining why some of their
more prominent rebuttals for it all cannot be true.
As humanity stands at the crossroads between the Fifth and the
Sixth Worlds, American Indian wisdomkeepers have recognized signs
that they must now speak their closely held knowledge about
extraterrestrial contact, their original instructions from the Sky
Elders. These ET relationships have existed since the beginning of
time. They have been depicted on ancient rocks and hides, embedded
in creation stories, choreographed in sacred dances, beaded on
wampum belts, and continued to this day through rituals and the
tobacco blessing. They show that with the vital support of our Star
Ancestors, we can bring our planet back into balance with natural
laws. Exploring the unifying "Sky Elder" theme found in virtually
every Indian culture, Nancy Red Star shares her profound interviews
with wisdomkeepers from several Native traditions, including Mayan
elder and daykeeper Hunbatz Men, Stargate International CEO and UFO
researcher Cecilia Dean, and Choctaw medicine man Sequoyah
Trueblood, and offers their teachings on taking our rightful place
among the peoples of the universe. Laying out a path for rebuilding
our world, the Sky Elders' original instructions initiate us into
the possibility of a coming time of peace. Inviting all peoples to
realize their Star ancestry, the women and men of proud lineage and
inspiring wisdom who share their experiences here offer us a
survival plan for walking into the next world.
What happens when the history books are wrong? The United States
Government wants you to not question the narrative that, in some
cases, has been written by them for more than a century. But
sometimes, real facts emerge from declassified documents that
challenge what you thought you knew. This book dissects some of the
most amazing declassified documents that have changed the history
of the world and our perception of it. With each turn of the page,
Secrets from The Black Vault reveals declassified programs and
formerly top secret illustrations that detail an Air Force’s
secret plan to build a Mach 4 flying saucer; the Department of
Defense’s plan to detonate a nuclear bomb on the surface of the
moon; the use of psychic spies within the CIA; how an unidentified
object almost sparked World War III; and much more. Declassified
documents within The Black Vault play a crucial role in
understanding the inner workings of America’s top secret agendas.
In Ancient Aliens on Mars II, New York Times bestselling author
Mike Bara returns the reader to Mars to examine the enduring
mysteries of the Red Planet. Building on the case made in Ancient
Aliens on Mars and using data acquired from sophisticated new
scientific instruments like the Mars Odyssey THEMIS infrared
imager, Bara shows that the region of Cydonia overlays a vast
underground city full of enormous structures and devices that may
still be operating. He peels back the layers of mystery to show
images of tunnel systems, temples and ruins, and exposes the
sophisticated NASA conspiracy designed to hide them and discredit
the researchers that discovered these exotic ruins. Bara also
tackles the enigma of Mars' hollowed out moon Phobos, and exposes
evidence from over 30 years of observations that it is artificial.
Long-held myths about Mars, including claims that it is protected
by a sophisticated UFO defense system, are examined and
illuminated. Data from the Mars rovers Spirit, Opportunity and
Curiosity is examined; everything from fossilized plants to
mechanical debris is exposed in images taken directly from NASA's
own archives. Finally, the author offers his take on the secret
history of the Red Planet and what happened to the highly advanced
civilization that once flourished there.
