VICTOR CAMACHO June 19th, 2019

“FORBIDDEN ARCHAEOLGY & POSSIBLE E.T. ORIGINS” Victor Camacho is a researcher and host of the well-known Spanish language radio program “Los Desvelados” (The Unveiled), which airs nationally in the U.S. and Mexico. He has been featured on programs about UFOs on the Discovery Channel, the Travel Channel, the History Channel and the SyFy Channel. He was born in Mexico, but has been working in U.S. media for 31 years. Victor is Director of the Desvelado Network, based in Salt Lake City, where his radio show, which has been on the air for 23 years, is produced. Almost every night, Victor discusses topics related to UFOs, the paranormal, forbidden archaeology, conspiracies and more. Los Desvelados has created a unique niche for itself, captivating listeners nightly in major cities across the U.S. and Mexico. Victor has undertaken numerous trips throughout Mexico to research possible ancient alien sites. He has found artifacts that indicate ET beings may have visited our planet in ancient times. These strange artifacts belong to an unknown culture so old that it could have given rise to the rest of the pre-Hispanic cultures we are more familiar with. The artifacts have engravings that may show an alien language. Victor visited the area where these enigmatic pieces were found and he’s seen the remains of an ancient settlement that seems to be from an advanced civilization. He has spoken with the people who found these enigmatic pieces and met a collector who has more than 1,200 related artifacts. In Teocaltiche, Jalisco he investigated reports of sightings of UFOs with strange flying characteristics that completely break all the laws of physics. He has seen ancient clay pieces that show UFO-shaped craft and strange insectoid-type beings. He showed us exclusive footage of a winged being or mothman taken near this town in the highlands of Jalisco. “We faced in Mexico the discovery of strange artifacts belonging to an unknown culture that could have given origin to the rest of the pre-hispanic cultures we know. These rocks tell the story of beings that inhabited this planet and left their knowledge in a stone library that could change the history of mankind as we know it.

JONATHAN DOVER April 20th, 2019

" TALES FROM A NAVAJO RANGER” The Navajo Reservation in Arizona had long had reports of strange goings-on beyond the scope of what ordinary law enforcement is trained to deal with, including ghosts, Bigfoot, UFOs and the shape-shifting creatures known as Skinwalkers. Rather than dismiss these cases, the Navajo Reservation assigned a special branch of their police department to look into them, consisting of a group of specially trained federal officers who also handle more mundane matters. Although paranormal reports account for less than 1% of cases, they are taken seriously and recognized as worthy of investigation.

ELENA FREEDLAND March 20th, 2019

" GEOENGINEERING AND THE SPACE FENCE LOCKDOWN” Elana Freeland is a writer, ghostwriter, speaker, and teacher who researches and writes on Deep State issues, including the stories of survivors of MK-ULTRA, ritual abuse, and invasive electromagnetic weapons (Nexus, October 2014). She is best known for her books Chemtrails, HAARP, and the Full Spectrum Dominance of Planet Earth (2014) and Under An Ionized Sky: From Chemtrails to Space Fence Lockdown (2018). Elana has also written a 4-book fictional series called Sub Rosa America: A Deep State History about the hidden history of America since President Kennedy’s assassination. Elana will be presenting her understanding of the Lockheed Martin-run Space Fence, which many see as simply a few devices tracking space debris and perhaps some radar projects. Not so. Freelan’s contention is that the Space Fence is actually far more significant, entailing control and surveillance reaching all the way into our nervous systems via a geoengineered delivery system and the now WiFi ionized atmosphere. As to how this elaborate series of projects has been paid for, investment analyst and former deputy director of HUD Catherine Austin Fitts has been speaking out about the “secret space program” and is astute at tracking money. She says at least $21 trillion is missing from the American budget. As the Space Fence and its attendant geoengineering (for two decades now) are black programs (“national security”), finding an exact amount would be difficult. Let’s just say trillions have thus far gone into building and calibrating the Space Fence infrastructure. Freeland believes the Space Fence and its ongoing use of geoengineering and chemtrails is run entirely by military-industrial intelligence entities using these black programs. All are designed to help create an elaborate electromagnetic infrastructure on the ground and in near-Earth orbit using satellites, nanotechnology, radar installations, particle accelerators like CERN, 3-6G cell phones, fiber optics, Smart Grid devices, public utilities, NexRads, WSACs, the Internet of Things–and more. The point of this Space Fence infrastructure is full spectrum dominance of the planet, including all its life forms, using electromagnetism and nanotechnology. The Space Fence is meant to facilitate a number of key activities: weather engineering, planetary geophysical control, directed energy warfare, comprehensive surveillance, biological manipulation, and the detection of exotic propulsion technologies. The Space Fence is up and running. It only awaits the 5G linchpin for total societal control. Is this a serious threat–or science fiction? To Freeland’s mind, the Space Fence is the most serious threat of our time. Elana is now writing her third book on the threat posed by geoengineering. It will deal with how the Space Fence infrastructure will be integrated with the synthetic biological infrastructure that is now omnipresent in our environment and which effects even our bodies and brains. Freeland’s undergraduate degree was in creative writing, with a second major in biology. Her Master of Arts degree from St. John’s College in Santa Fe, New Mexico concentrated on historiography. She lives in Olympia, Washington.

MERA & FITZPATRICK February 20th, 2019

" PROJECT DOORWAY” According to a number of recent surveys, a UFO is seen every 8 seconds around the world. Have you ever wondered how so many UFOs are getting here? Conventional scientific theories would have us believe that advanced civilizations may have the technology to cover the vast distances of space. What if that isn’t the case? What if ‘they’ are traveling here using a unique form of physics. Perhaps they are jumping in and out of our reality, utilizing earth’s very own electron diffused regions, better known as “portals.” Join the UK/Ireland head tutors of the UFO Investigators Training Course (UITC) as they explain the dynamics and complexities of this age-old phenomenon.

REY HERNANDEZ January 26th, 2019

"THE FREE EXPERIENCER RESEARCH STUDY" Reinerio (Rey) Hernandez is one of the four co-founders of The Dr. Edgar Mitchell Foundation for Research into Extraterrestrial and Extraordinary Experiences and a Co-Chair of the FREE Experiencer Research Committee. FREE was co-founded by the late Apollo 14 astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell, Dr. Rudy Schild, an Emeritus Research Astronomer at the Harvard/Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Australian researcher Mary Rodwell and Hernandez, an attorney and experiencer. Based in Florida, the FREE Board of Directors is comprised of nine retired academic professors and lay researchers who have been researching the field of Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon (UAP) and contact with Non-Human Intelligence (NHI) for more than 30 years. Over the last four years, FREE has conducted the world’s first comprehensive, multi-language academic research study on individuals who have had UFO-related contact with NHI. The FREE Experiencer Research Study utilized two quantitative survey instruments, totaling over 550 questions and one qualitative survey, eliciting written responses to 70 open-ended questions. These English language surveys had over 4,000 respondents from over 100 countries, addressing a diverse range of physical, psychological, perceptual, and paranormal aspects of reported physical and/or non-physical interactions with UFO-related NHI. The participants were instructed to base their responses solely on conscious, explicit memories, as opposed to relying on hypnotic regression, dreams, meditation or channeling. The survey results contradict much of the information widely held to be true in Ufology today. In this talk, Rey will discuss the formation of the FREE Foundation, Dr. Edgar Mitchell’s vision for it, the methodology used for the surveys, and most importantly, the findings of this four year study.

There will be an opportunity for Q&A at the end of each presentation. The program will not be recorded, so be sure to attend to hear about these incidents. General, student, and first-timer admissions will be reduced by $5.00 for this program only. Topics covered will include unmistakable observations of UFO’s, related phenomena, and the abduction experience. You will not want to miss this unusual and stimulating program presented by your friends and neighbors. See you there!

MATTHEW MORDOVANEC October 17th, 2018

"THE TEN TYPES OF BIGFOOT IN NORTH AMERICA" Our guest speaker on October 17, Matthew Mordovanec, has accumulated hundreds of eye witness accounts of encounters with large creatures that are part of the species generally referred to as Bigfoot. From Alaska to Florida and in many areas in between, people have seen and reported these creatures in every habitat that can be imagined, from swamps to forests to deserts. The physical descriptions reveal these creatures as generally large, upright, and ape-like in appearance. In refining the descriptions and looking at the details, Matt has found that people are describing a variety of related creatures. Some are huge, with impossibly large shoulders and a very gorilla-like head, a variety that seems to be shy and reserved. Other types are described as tall, but not nearly as big in the shoulders as the first type, with more of a chimp-like appearance and temperament. This type is more aggressive and vocal. Some of the Bigfoot have sharp meat-eating teeth and claws, while others have flat teeth and human-like fingernails. One of the more frightening types even has a snout like a baboon and a very fearsome reputation. Matt has found that if you take a look at reports of the different types and plot them on a map, it starts to paint a very interesting picture, and if you look at how the Indians have described these creatures and the type of food and water sources that are in the areas where they are observed, the locations of the sightings start to make a lot of sense. Matt will break down the type, location, physiology and temperament of the various Bigfoot creatures. He will also touch on missing people and the extent to which Bigfoot is related to some of the missing 411 cases. Matt is the creator of the YouTube channel “Mattsquatch Presents.” He has been interested in the paranormal since he was 8 years old, and for many years has studied the UFO phenomenon, including UFO crashes, abductions, and underground bases. His mother has a degree in anthropology, which may have contributed to his initial interest in Bigfoot, and he has spent much of the last 10 years doing research in the cryptozoological field with a big focus on the Sasquatch phenomenon. He has attended and has been a speaker at conferences on the subject, and has been a guest on a number of podcast and other You Tube channels discussing Bigfoot. While having learned a lot, he has become aware that there is much more to learn about these animals. He has also personally investigated the phenomenon, having spent time in the woods where he has had several frightening encounters with these creatures.

JORDAN SATHER September 19th, 2018

"SECRET SPACE: FROM WWII TO THE SPACE FORCE" Jordan Sather will be speaking to us about the creation of the Secret Space Program and related black projects dating from WWII to the present, with an emphasis on technology and resource acquisition, culminating with an examination of the current political climate and how it relates to these illegal, covert programs. Jordan will also discuss the recently proposed creation of a Space Force. Jordan hails from the Pacific Northwest and is a speaker, educator, motivator and internet content creator. In early 2017, he ventured online, growing his brand, “Destroying the Illusion” into a consciousness-raising powerhouse on social media. His awakening began when he dropped out of college in 2011 to work at a natural health food store. While there, he began to draw conclusions about questionable practices in the pharmaceutical and agricultural industries. He wanted to address a wider variety of issues, reach more people and make a greater impact. In 2017, he quit working in health, and began devoting his time to growing his truth-sharing YouTube Channel, Destroying the Illusion. To date, he has amassed nearly 250,000 total subscribers and followers across his YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook accounts, with millions of video views. He has been instrumental in educating the public on issues such as true health, hidden technologies, the Secret Space Program, esoteric philosophy and the QAnon public intelligence operation.

PAOLA HARRIS July 18th, 2018

"CONVERSATIONS WITH COLONEL CORSO" In 1998, Paola Harris sat down for an interview with Colonel Phillip Corso, author of the groundbreaking book, “The Day After Roswell.” Twenty years later, she has finally released details of what she learned from that fateful meeting. We learn that much of the technology that we take for granted came from studying the wreckage of the Roswell and other crashes. More importantly, we learn that there is technology still being withheld, due to the psychological and economic ramifications its release would have for our society. As humanity progresses, Paola believes that dialog with extraterrestrials becomes ever more likely. Paola will discuss her 2017 book about her conversations with Phillip Corso, and the highlights of what she learned from that discussion. Paola will also discuss several recent international UFO sightings and perhaps most importantly, interactions she had with ET intelligence on Mt. Shasta during a group event in May, 2018. Paola is an Italian-American investigative reporter and widely published freelance writer, especially in European publications. She has studied ET-related phenomena since 1979, assisting Dr. J. Allen Hynek with his investigations from1980-1986. She was instrumental in having The Day After Roswell translated into Italian. She has published five books of interviews with important whistleblowers, including Connecting the Dots: Making Sense of the UFO Phenomenon. Paola resides in Boulder, Colorado but frequently travels to Rome and Latin America. She is an International Liaison Director for Dr. Michael Salla’s Exopolitics Institute. Her website is: www.paolaharris.com

CLIFFORD MAHOOTY June 20th, 2018

"THE ZUNIS & THE STAR PEOPLE" The star people taught the Zuni Indians spiritual rituals and religious practices that have allowed them to live in harmony with nature and all living things since time immemorial. After many decades of enforced silence, Zuni knowledge about off planet, inner earth, paranormal and spiritual beings can now be revealed to outsiders. Zuni Tribal Elder Clifford Mahooty will be with us to share these formerly secret teachings. Mahooty has a unique ability to describe and masterfully interpret Zuni encounters with the Sky People of the Star Nations—and encounters with inner earth entities. After decades of silence, a handful of elders are coming forward to share the ways, technology and history of the original inhabitants of the Southwest. Clifford is one of these. The tribal teachings that Clifford has inherited have prepared him to teach about the extraordinary lost history of the earth, information held sacred by the native tribes of the Southwest for thousands of years. The disclosure of this secret knowledge at this time is meant to serve as a catalyst for the expansion of human consciousness–and as a demonstration of the wisdom keepers’ desire to be of service to others. Now is the time to review the remnants of ancient ancestral knowledge to prepare for future events. Mahooty is a retired civil/environmental engineer, a Zuni Pueblo elder and a wisdom keeper of Zuni history and spiritual practices. He is a member of the Kachina Society, the Galaxy Medicine Society and the Sun Clan.

STEPHEN BASSETT May 16th, 2018

"MOVING TOWARD “BIG D” DISCLOSURE" Disclosure advocate Stephen Bassett will discuss a number of extraordinary political developments that took place between April of 2013 and December of 2017 which represent a sea change in the disclosure process. This discussion will include a thorough analysis of the “To the Stars Academy of Arts and Science” — its team, actions and revelations. Bassett asserts that we are closer than ever to the formal announcement of an ET presence on our planet and only unprecedented political chaos stands in the way of the inevitable. Stephen Bassett is the executive director of Paradigm Research Group , which was founded in 1996 to put an end to the government-imposed embargo on the truth behind extraterrestrial related phenomena. Bassett has spoken to audiences around the world about the implications of formal “Disclosure” by world governments of an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race. He has given over 1,000 radio and television interviews on this subject. PRG’s advocacy work has been extensively covered by national and international media, including being featured on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, Washington Post, New York Times, New York Magazine, Washington Times, Chicago Tribune. In 2013, PRG produced the “Citizen Hearing on Disclosure” at the National Press Club in Washington. In November of 2014, PRG launched two political initiatives in Washington, DC. One sought the first hearings on Capitol Hill since 1968 regarding the extraterrestrial presence issue. The other sought to inject the ET issue into the 2016 presidential campaign. Stephen has appeared in many documentary films and his lectures and interviews are extensively represented on YouTube.

GRANT CAMERON March 21st, 2018

"MANAGING MAGIC: THE GOVERNMENT’S DISCLOSURE PLAN" Many think the government is about to disclose what it knows about UFOs. Others believe the government is doing everything in its power to keep the UFO reality a secret. The truth is that those who control the UFO secret are doing neither. The secret-keepers are gradually disclosing this information via an acclimatization process, based on advice given by military think tanks that have looked at the issue. At this talk, the reader will learn how long this disclosure effort has been going on and how this covert plan is being carried out. Learn about the 14 Magicians in charge of managing UFO secrecy. Find out who the 5 Messiahs are, the ones chosen to deliver the disclosure message. Learn the 64 reasons why United States presidents have kept almost all UFO information secret. Discover what WikiLeaks has revealed about UFOs. Learn more about To The Stars, rocker Tom DeLonge’s disclosure effort. Hear which U.S. president had an abduction experience.

He has lectured internationally and received the prestigious “UFO Congress Researcher of the Year Award.”

CHRISTOPHER O'BRIEN January 17th, 2018

"STALKING THE HERD: UNRAVELING THE CATTLE MUTILATION MYSTERY" Since 1605, tens of thousands of cattle and other warm-blooded animals have been discovered dead and disfigured in pastures and on farms around the world. These animals are found in horrific condition, missing various soft-tissue organs, with few clues present to aid investigators. Who or what is behind these unexplained animal deaths? Chris O’Brien, one of the world’s foremost animal death investigators, will take you inside one of the most perplexing serial crime sprees of all time. Working with veterinarian pathologists, biologists and law enforcement investigators, O’Brien has slowly unraveled this enduring mystery. Are UFOs and aliens responsible? Cults? Scavengers? O’Brien will present startling new evidence linking many of these animal deaths to a covert environmental monitoring program perpetrated by a shadowy group with access to high technology. He will also discuss the important role cattle have played in our cultural and religious development. He believes that modern cattle production methods are extremely detrimental to the health of humans and our planet…and that this little-discussed subject is worthy of our scrutiny. From 1992 to 2002, O’Brien investigated hundreds of unexplained events in the border region of Colorado and New Mexico. These investigations are covered in his “Mysterious Valley” book trilogy. O’Brien’s years of researching UFO sightings, cattle mutilations and crypto-creatures has resulted in the creation of a formidable database dedicated to paranormal events in the American Southwest.

DAVID JACOBS December 13th, 2017

"ADVENTURES OF AN ABDUCTION RESEARCHER" Longtime MUFON OC friend David Jacobs will be with us in December. A retired Professor of History at Temple University in Philadelphia, Jacobs has been a UFO researcher since 1966 and is the pre-eminent UFO abduction researcher in the country. Jacobs will discuss material from his book, Walking Among Us, along with a variety of intriguing experiences he’s had over the course of his career. The second half of the evening will be an extended Q&A session, so bring your questions. Jacobs: “I have done abduction research for thirty-one years. Working with about 150 abductees I have uncovered over 1,100 abduction accounts. Analyzing the abduction phenomenon has been both a rocky road and smooth sailing. During that time I’ve had my ups, my downs, my smiles, my frowns, but I grew accustomed to the abduction experience and I managed to help decipher its meaning. I am not a mental health professional but I have found that working with people on an intimate basis can be interesting, trying, euphoric, and even frightening. My talk will be about my process of learning about abductions and disentangling the wheat from the chaff. “ In 1973, Jacobs completed his doctoral dissertation in the field of intellectual history at the University of Wisconsin-Madison on the controversy over unidentified flying objects in America. This was only the second Ph.D. degree granted with a dissertation involving a UFO-related theme. From 1977 to 2011, he taught the country’s only regular curriculum university course on UFOs and abductions: “UFOs and American Society.” Since the early 1980s, he has specialized in the UFO abduction phenomenon. He has lectured widely on the subject both internationally and at colleges and universities across the United States.

DONALD SCHMITT October 18th, 2017

"THE CHILDREN OF ROSWELL" Throughout the course of his investigations into the 1947 Roswell crash, Don Schmitt has often focused on the plight of the witnesses. He’s been astounded by the extreme measures the U.S. government used to ensure the silence of the witnesses and their associates. This element of the case hasn’t previously received much attention, but a lot of information has now come to light about strange disappearances, death threats, and intrusive surveillance that these Roswell families have endured–a 70-year legacy of fear and intimidation. Don will discuss this and more, including recent deathbed confession material, as we carry on amidst the ongoing insults and disinformation in the form of Russian spy balloon and wooden crash dummy theories in an effort to “explain” the incident. According to this longtime Roswell researcher, something sinister was afoot at Roswell, something targeting innocent children. More information about this will be revealed in this presentation. Don Schmitt is the author of six books on Roswell.

JAN HARZAN September 20th, 2017

"EVIDENCE OF EXTRATERRESTRIAL CONTACT FROM THE MUFON FILES" Jan Harzan’s interest in UFOs began at the age of 8 when he read an article on Donald Keyhoe and NICAP in Argosy magazine. This was the start of a lifelong interest. As part of his drive to solve the mystery of UFO propulsion, Jan attended UCLA School of Engineering and received his B.S. in Nuclear Engineering. After college, he began working for IBM, thinking that only a company of IBM’s stature and ability to fund basic research could solve this problem. Harzan spent 37 years with IBM in sales and marketing as an executive, before retiring to become the Executive Director of MUFON. Jan began attending MUFON meetings in 1991. In 1995, he was appointed the State Section Director of MUFON OC. After a successful MUFON Symposium in Irvine in 2001, he was elected to the MUFON Business Board. In this role, Jan was instrumental in leading MUFON’s Strategic Planning, which resulted in the group’s current mission statement and organizational goals, and the creation of the Case Management System (CMS), which is used for case reporting, tracking, and investigation follow-up. Since taking charge of MUFON in 2013, longtime MUFON member and experiencer Jan Harzan has reshaped the organization–focusing on documenting cases of possible extraterrestrial contact, with an emphasis on taking the UFO subject mainstream. How has this been done? Come find out, as Jan shares the inner workings of MUFON. He’ll give us an overview of the best cases of Structured UFO craft from the MUFON Files, which should impress even the toughest skeptic. Jan will also share the details of his own close encounter with a UFO. This is a talk you won’t want to miss!

JO ANN RICHARDS August 16th, 2017

"KNIGHTS OF THE COLD WAR: INSIDE INFORMATION ON THE SECRET SPACE PROGRAM" Jo Ann Richards is Executive Director of the educational non-profit, Earth Defense Headquarters. She will report that her husband, Capt. Mark Richards, and his father, Maj. Ellis Lloyd Richards, Jr., were involved with top-level military intelligence operations since World War II, many including contact and battles with various alien species. Jo Ann will speak about the military’s Secret Space Program, including the ships of the Deep Space Fleet, interstellar/interspecies treaty conferences on Earth, non-human species who work with the military, Mark Richards’ training with the Raptor Imperial Fleet and various on-and-off Earth missions to defend humanity.

JEREMY CORBELL July 19th, 2017

"UFOS ARE A CLOCKWORK ORANGE" Jeremy Corbell is an investigative filmmaker based in Los Angeles, California. Corbell documents credible individuals and their extraordinary belief systems with the intention of “weaponizing your curiosity.” His research has taken him into the worlds of nanotechnology, aerospace, exotic propulsion systems, UFOs and the Skinwalker Ranch mystery. Corbell has developed intimate portraits of some of the most elusive witnesses in the UFO field. With film subjects such as Bob Lazar, George Knapp, John Lear, “Nano Man”, Dr. Roger Leir and astronaut Edgar Mitchell. For this presentation, Corbell will give an audio/visual lecture that will feature film clips from his most recent documentary and investigative work. He will discuss his evolving understanding of The Phenomenon (UFOs and beyond), addressing both the nuts-and-bolts elements and the more exotic elements that hint that “an artificial intelligence may be in command of the UFO display.” Corbell will discuss what he calls “the mechanistic characteristics of The Phenomenon.” His theory, informed by the work of Anthony Burgess and Stanley Kubrick, is that a pervasive artificial intelligence may be responding to and interacting with humanity in very hidden, very intriguing ways. Audience members will see never-before-screened footage from a number of Corbell’s upcoming films, including Skinwalker Ranch and Patient Seventeen. Come and explore the shadowy and mysterious hallways of the UFO phenomenon with Jeremy Corbell! Explore all of his work at ExtraordinaryBeliefs.com

LINDA MOULTON HOWE June 21st, 2017

"SYMBOLS AND BINARY CODE IN HIGH STRANGENESS PHENOMENA" From the 19th Century to the present, there have been high strangeness reports of symbols on unidentified aerial craft and in crop formations. Some of those high strangeness cases have also included binary code that has been translated. There have been a few similarities in symbol patterns and repeating themes in the binary code in which Something warns about threats to human survival. One current experiencer is a U. S. Army Sergeant. He and his family had an encounter with a craft he estimated to be 820 feet in diameter with symbols at its mid-section. After that encounter, he began to have zeros and ones filling his mind nightly. He began to write the binary code down and the translations have led to a surprising implication. This talk received a standing ovation when given to 1,200 people in Manchester, England in early March. Linda is a renowned investigative journalist who has won numerous prestigious awards. She runs the Earthfiles.com website and reports at length monthly on the “Coast to Coast AM” radio show.

PRESTON DENNETT March 15th, 2017

"UNDERGROUND BASES AND THE ALIEN/UFO PHENOMENON" UFO researcher and MUFON field investigator, Preston Dennett, will present all brand new, never-before-published cases from his new book, “Inside UFOs.” What is the alien agenda? Why are they here and what are their plans for humanity? Are they friendly or hostile? Using firsthand testimony from the witnesses themselves, Dennett will answer these questions and more. Some of the cases discussed include: A Navy Corpsman is invited aboard a UFO by his shipmate, only to meet fifteen-foot-tall, friendly Praying Mantis-type ETs. A paperboy encounters a UFO and has missing time, leaving him with an undiagnosed illness and a mystery that remained unsolved for years. a teacher stops on the road when a huge metallic sphere drops from the sky, and out steps a handsome-looking spaceman. A new mother is shocked to see an alien right outside her window, staring intently at her newborn son. a desperately ill housewife is transported from her home into an unknown base and cured by an eight-foot-tall, orange-haired humanoid. A Navy Electronics Specialist has a complex UFO encounter aboard a Navy Ship, and is taught by the ETs about alternative energy sources. Dennett will present these and several other new, unpublished cases involving extensive contact with a wide variety of extraterrestrials, including information from his other new books, “Not from Here: Volumes 1 & 2.” This is not just another lecture about abductions by grays. This presentation of firsthand contact cases will show just how fascinating and bizarre extraterrestrial contact can be.

L.A. MARZULLI January 18th, 2017

"THE TWO PARADIGMS FOR THE UFO PHENOMENON: EXTRATERRESTRIAL OR INTER-DIMENSIONAL? " Jacques Vallee, one of the leading authorities on the UFO phenomenon, has gone on the record stating: “The symbolic display seen by the abductees is identical to the type of initiation ritual or astral voyage that is imbedded in the [occult] traditions of every culture…the structure of abduction stories is identical to that of occult initiation rituals…the UFO beings of today belong to the same class of manifestation as the [occult] entities that were described in centuries past.” If we are intellectually honest we must ask ourselves how these entities, wherever they are from, are able to manipulate space, time, matter and energy in ways that defy our physics. Are these intruders from Zeta Riticullii or are they inter-dimensional beings who have a proclivity to deceive, hence the title of Vallee’s book: Messengers of Deception. L.A. Marzulli will be discussing these two paradigms at length at the January MUFON meeting. L. A. Marzulli is an author, lecturer and filmmaker who has written ten books, including the best-selling Nephilim Trilogy, which made the Christian Booksellers Association bestseller list. His series On the Trail of the Nephilim is a full-color, over-sized book, which uncovers startling evidence that there has been a massive cover up of what he believes are the remains of the Nephilim, the giants mentioned in the Bible. L.A. received an honorary doctorate from Pacific International University in Springfield, Missouri.

GREG BISHOP December 14th, 2016

"THE CO-CREATION HYPOTHESIS – A DIFFERENT APPROACH TO UFO RESEARCH" UFO study has, for the most part, concentrated on gathering information from witnesses based on their recollections. But as we know, people’s ability to recall even mundane events can vary widely. The instrument recording these encounters is, after all, not radar or a video camera, it is the human mind, which is notoriously imprecise at times. Perhaps the question we should be asking is not if aliens are visiting us, but “What causes UFO reports?” or even “How much do we contribute when a close encounter experience occurs?” There is a vast backlog of data about UFO encounters that does not conform to the standard narrative. These outliers shouldn’t be ignored. Using recent discoveries about perception and memory, as well as some of the newest theoretical models of reality, Greg will suggest some new approaches for future researchers to take when investigating the UFO enigma. He will also elaborate on the idea that one of the most important elements to take into account as we assess this mysterious phenomenon is the role our own brains play in it. In 1991, Greg co-founded a magazine called The Excluded Middle, which was a journal of UFOs, the paranormal, conspiracy, psychedelia and new science. He is the author of Project Beta (2005), which documented a government campaign of disinformation perpetrated against researcher Paul Bennewitz. His most recent book, It Defies Language! (2016), is a collection of essays on UFOs, the government, and fringe issues and personalities. His show Radio Misterioso (radiomisterioso.com), now in its 17th year, features interviews with fringe-topic researchers and occasionally, weird music. In whatever free time he has, Bishop flies paragliders and ultralight aircraft. He is also a licensed private pilot, as well as being an FAA-approved aerial drone photographer.

JASON MARTELL November 16th, 2016

"WAS THE ARK OF THE COVENANT USED TO POWER THE GREAT PYRAMID?" Jason Martel’s research scrutinizes a variety of ancient artifacts and the technology and capability these items imply. Where did these unusual items come from? Would members of an advanced civilization, from say 10-15,000 years in the past, have simply stayed in one locale, or would they have moved out across the globe, taking their technology with them? Generally, we can suppose that the technology of highly advanced civilizations would tend to become widespread. It follows in turn that we would expect to find evidence of their technology all over the planet. In this lecture, Martell will show many artifacts from antiquity which challenge our preconceptions about our predecessors’ technology and level of scientific knowledge. When observing various ancient cultures, we often see megalithic monuments, built in alignment with distant stars or constellations. These alignments reflect an awareness of points in time as well as space, along with a sophisticated knowledge of astronomy. One primary example of this is the Giza Pyramids in Egypt. Until about 15 years ago, we didn’t know that this trio of pyramids was built to correspond perfectly with the geometry of the three stars comprising the Orion Constellation. A more earthly example of ancient technology is the Dendera Light, found in the Hathor Temple in Dendera, which is located fifty miles north of Luxor. A Norwegian electrical engineer exploring the temple noticed that an object depicted in one of the bas reliefs resembled a light bulb. The image the explorers saw in the tomb had a sort of cable at one end and two filament-like arms extending up to a wider, bulb-like end. Perhaps the most controversial theory Jason has been researching is that the Ark of the Covenant may have been used to power the Great Pyramid. He will discuss this and more in his MUFON presentation. Martell is a researcher and lecturer specializing in the ancient Sumerian culture, Sumer’s advanced technology, and the evidence for ancient astronauts.. Backed by leading scientists from the mainstream scientific community, Martell has been a guest on numerous television shows and has given lectures throughout the world. He has also researched NASA data for possible artificial structures on Mars.

MIKE BARA October 19th, 2016

"THE SECRET SPACE PROGRAM" Space expert Mike Bara will reveal the American military’s secret space program, which he believes has been going on for over 60 years. Bara will discuss the Army Ballistic Missile Agency’s proposed Project Horizon, which was a study to determine the feasibility of constructing a scientific/military base on the Moon. On June 8, 1959, a group at the Army Ballistic Missile Agency (ABMA) produced for the U.S. Department of the Army a report entitled Project Horizon, A U.S. Army Study for the Establishment of a Lunar Military Outpost. The permanent outpost in question was predicted to cost $6 billion and was to become operational in December 1966, with twelve soldiers stationed at the Moon base. Wernher von Braun, head of ABMA, appointed Heinz-Hermann Koelle to head the project team at Redstone Arsenal. Their plans called for 147 early Saturn A-class rocket launches to loft spacecraft components for assembly in low Earth orbit at a spent-tank space station. A lunar landing-and-return vehicle would have shuttled up to 16 astronauts at a time to the base and back. Military officials say that Project Horizon was scrapped–but was it? Bara will share his research into the possibility of secret bases on the Moon and address the many rumors surrounding the military’s secret space projects. This presentation will pose many intriguing questions. Was Wernher von Braun involved in investigating the Roswell crash? Why did he suddenly become fascinated with highly advanced theoretical physics propulsion systems during the Apollo years, and why did all of this public research on propulsion suddenly “go black” in the early 1960s? Did NASA and the Pentagon know and expect to find evidence of alien bases on the Moon? Did the Apollo 12 astronauts deliberately damage the TV cameras in order to hide their explorations of one of these bases? What was the top secret “Chapel Bell” experiment on Apollo 16? Has teleportation been developed with the aid of captured alien technology and is it being used to transport humans to secret NASA/DOD bases on Mars? Do space shuttle videos taken in the 1990s show proof of a highly advanced secret US space fleet? Does computer hacker Gary Mackinnon’s discovery of defense department documents identifying “non-terrestrial officers” serving in space mean that the U.S. has secret space platforms, designed to fight a war with an alien race? And, have these secret military space platforms been photographed by amateur observers here on Earth? Mike Bara is the author of Dark Mission: The Secret History of NASA, written with Richard Hoagland. Mike has a background in aerospace and has written several recent books about anomalous phenomena on the Moon and Mars. Bara, who is currently based in Seattle, has often appeared on “Coast to Coast AM” radio with George Noory and been featured on various television programs dealing with UFOs and paranormal subjects. He has also lectured widely at UFO conferences around the United States.

BEN HANSEN September 21st, 2016

"UFO DISCLOSURE: TALK SHOW HOSTS AND POLITICIANS?" Ben Hansen has become well-known in the UFO field for his focus on video and photo analysis, often providing commentary for stories in the Huffington Post “Weird News” column. With a background in law enforcement, Hansen also instructs UFO investigators in forensic interviewing and is often called upon to provide his opinion on the veracity of witness interviews and statements. Over the past few years, Hansen has shifted his focus to analyzing the statements of politicians regarding the UFO subject. Since 2014, talk show host Jimmy Kimmel has interviewed Presidents Clinton, Obama, and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton–questioning them about UFOs and Area 51 and whether they’ve made inquiries into government files on these subjects. President Obama has made interesting disclosures on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and Hillary, with the encouragement of her campaign manager John Podesta, has discussed UFOs surprisingly frequently. Hansen has done extensive analysis of these interviews, and applying his knowledge of body language, has come to some very interesting, even controversial, conclusions. The resulting videos of his analyses have received significant attention online. He will discuss his findings and what our nation’s leaders may or may not know about UFOs. Is Disclosure imminent? Will the current or next president reveal what he or she knows? The mainstream press is finally taking notice that politicians are talking about UFOs and related subjects. Hansen will discuss possible motives for their interest–and speculate about what it all means. Hansen was the lead host of the Syfy Channel’s hit TV series “Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files” which aired for 3 seasons and is currently in re-runs on Destination America. He has also worked as a consulting producer and host on several episodes of “UFOs Declassified.”

NICK REDFERN August 17th, 2016

"WOMEN IN BLACK: THE CREEPY COMPANIONS OF THE MYSTERIOUS M.I.B." You’ve heard of the Men in Black, but what about the Women in Black? Just like their creepy male counterparts, the WIB will stop at nothing to silence those who get too close to the truths behind the UFO phenomenon and paranormal activity. Dire warnings, intimidation, and menacing death threats are their cold-hearted calling cards. Like the vampires of old, these black-clad, pale-faced women prefer to do their hunting by night. Their prey: us. Women in Black is the first, full-length study of the WIB mystery. The story is a dark and disturbing one. It encompasses such issues as alien abductions, Mothman, strange and unearthly monsters, the secrets of alchemy, time-travel, and the dark domain of all things supernatural. Fearless and fearsome, the Women in Black just might be your worst nightmare. Nick Redfern is the author of 38 books on UFOs, lake-monsters, the Roswell UFO crash, zombies, and Hollywood scandal, including Men in Black, Chupacabra Road Trip, The Bigfoot Book and Close Encounters of the Fatal Kind. Nick has appeared on many TV shows, and he lectures on these subjects around the world. He can be contacted at: http://nickredfernfortean.blogspot.com

JULIENNA OKAH July 20th, 2016

"FACE TO FACE ET CONTACT: PATH TO HEAVEN" According to a 2009 AOL poll, 90% of respondents believe there is definitely (65%) or possibly (25%) intelligent life elsewhere in the universe. One Life, Many Worlds: My Journeys through the Heavens and Hells of Extraterrestrial Worlds is the extraordinary life story of Julliena Okah, a solo violinist and artist who met nonhuman beings when she was a young girl in post-World War II Japan. Celestial, nonhuman beings have been guiding her throughout her life, and encounters she’s had have led her along unimaginable paths. Her true story tells of her spiritual awakening inspired by encounters with other worlds and their inhabitants. Japanese native Julie Okah is a new speaker on the UFO scene, having spoken only once or twice before. She was a big hit at UPARS several months ago and will be joining us at MUFON OC in July. Julie has had a lifetime of contact with benevolent ETs and by her account, her musical skills were greatly enhanced in the wake of her ET encounters. Julie published her book, One Life, Many Worlds in 2014. Julie’s experiences were featured in a 2015 article written by Australian researcher Mary Rodwell for UFO Truth Magazine.

YVONNE SMITH June 15th, 2016

"CORONADO: THE PRESIDENT, THE SECRET SERVICE AND ALIEN ABDUCTIONS" This talk will highlight the story of a “mass” physical alien abduction that occurred at the Hotel Del Coronado in March of 1994 during a UFO conference. At the time, President Clinton was staying at the hotel. Through information derived from numerous hypnosis sessions, you will hear accounts from multiple witnesses who were involved in this strange incident. In her 25 years as a hypnotherapist doing this work, Smith says an event of this type is very rare. Smith will use this case as a jumping-off place for a discussion of the larger issues. She believes that alien abduction is much more widespread than people believe, that people from all ethnic & socio-economic backgrounds are taken, and that a hybridization program is central to the alien agenda. Smith is the founder of CERO, the Close Encounters Resource Organization, an abductee support group that holds monthly meetings. She is also the author of CHOSEN: Recollections of UFO Abductions Through Hypnotherapy. Smith has lectured at many national and international conferences, various universities, and co-lectured on tour with the late John Mack. Budd Hopkins and David Jacobs, PhD were her mentors in the field of abduction research. In January 2013, Smith launched CERO International, which features keynote speakers and is focused on educating the general public on the realities of human-alien interaction.

DR. JOSEPH BURKES May 18th, 2016

"IS THE FLYING SAUCER PHENOMENON SIMPLY AN ALIEN MASQUERADE?" Joseph Burkes, MD is an internal medicine physician, peace activist, UFO investigator and contact experiencer. For the last quarter-century, he has studied the contact phenomenon from a variety of viewpoints. During the 1990’s, he worked closely with Dr. Steven Greer in the CE-5 Initiative, as the CSETI Working Group Coordinator for Los Angeles. Burkes has also done fieldwork with the Hispanic contact group now known as Mission Rahma. Dr Burkes will discuss the mechanisms of contact–based on his personal experiences and the theories of Dr. Jacques Valle and John Keel. In Burkes’ view, the ETs’ notable psychic powers and apparent ability to create illusions at will should lead us to question the standard ET hypothesis. It may be that the contact drama is merely a masquerade carried out for our benefit. Dr. Burkes will be discussing a host of controversial topics including: The Virtual Experience Hypothesis: A description of how UFO intelligence uses the power of illusion to shape our beliefs about an ET presence. Val Germann’s Counterintelligence Theory for Investigation of UFOs: Why it might be a superior approach than the scientific method. How “Prime Contactees,” such as Dr. Greer, might be viewed as “agents of influence” for a higher intelligence. An insider’s view of the early days of the Disclosure Project and the role Naval Intelligence played in assisting Dr Greer’s pioneering effort. The reasons contactees and abductees could be viewed as opposite sides of the same coin.

BARBARA LAMB April 20th, 2016

"ET–HUMAN HYBRIDS LIVING ON EARTH" Barbara Lamb is a psychotherapist and hypnotherapist specializing in regression therapy. Since 1991, she has worked with more than 1,700 people who have desired to remember their extraterrestrial encounters, in a total of 2,300 regressions. During these sessions, she has been told about a large variety of ET beings who have apparently interact with human beings. She has also learned about an extensive program of reproduction that some of these beings carry out in order to create ET-human hybrids. Most of these hybrid beings are believed to spend their lifetimes on spaceships or on other planets. Lamb’s research eventually led her to meet some of these hybrid beings living here on earth. She believes that these hybrids are here to help upgrade the consciousness of humanity, using their special skills to teach spirituality, communicate with animals, teach classes and offer healing. She says these beings know they are bridges between humans and benevolent ETs, and she believes their missions are totally altruistic and benevolent, in contrast to the conclusions of some of our other presenters. For her latest book, Meet The Hybrids: The Lives and Missions of ET Ambassadors On Earth, co-authored with Miguel Mendonca, Barbara interviewed eight subjects who claim to be hybrids at length. Barbara will share many intriguing details from these discussions in her upcoming talk. Lamb has been a frequent speaker at major conferences since 1991 and has been interviewed on numerous radio shows, including Coast to Coast AM. She is the Past President of the Academy of Clinical Close Encounter Therapists (ACCET) and is on the Advisory Board of FREE: The Foundation for Research Into Extraterrestrial Encounters. This year she received the Lifetime Achievement Award at the International UFO Congress.

JAMES WOODWARD March 16th, 2016

"MAKING STARSHIPS & STARGATES: THE SCIENCE OF INTERSTELLAR TRANSPORT" Does physics allow rapid space-time transport? In March, Professor James Woodward will be with us to discuss potential approaches to rapid space-time transport from the perspective of a trained physicist. Before the 1990s, only a handful of people were pursuing research designed to bypass the perceived limitations of space-time. After World War II, a great deal of public attention was focused on spaceflight due to advancements in rocketry and general interest in flying saucers. However, little serious effort was being devoted to solving the propulsion problem. This subject was pretty much taboo among mainstream scientists. That changed in 1988, when Kip Thorne ushered in the era of wormhole physics. Thorne’s team used reverse engineering to figure out a way to travel the 6,000 light years from Earth to the center of the Galaxy in little or no time. The solution that presented itself turned out to be “wormholes.” This notion seemed so outlandish at the time that almost no one began to seriously look into the possibility of making wormholes and warp drives. But a fair number of scientists have worked on related, less ambitious goals in this area of inquiry. In his upcoming talk, James Woodward will discuss the work of prominent physicists attempting to move us closer to making rapid space-time transport a reality. J.F. Woodward completed received his Ph.D. in History at the University of Denver in 1972, after obtaining Bachelors and Masters degrees in physics at Middlebury College and New York University in the 1960s. Woodward, who retired in 2005, is now an Emeritus Professor of History and Adjunct Professor of Physics at California State University, Fullerton. He continues to do experimental work on advanced propulsion and the enigmatic sciences, studying gravity manipulation among other subjects. He is the author of Making Starships and Stargates: the Science of Interstellar Propulsion and Absurdly Benign Wormholes, which was published in 2013. His current research is underwritten by the Space Studies Institute, as part of its Exotic Propulsion Initiative.

LAURIE MCDONALD February 17th, 2016

"EXPERIENCING ABDUCTION PHENOMENA" This month, abduction researcher Laurie McDonald will be joining us. She is a clinical hypnotherapist who is also the founder of the Sacramento Alien Abduction and Contactee Support Group and runs True You Hypnotherapy, which is based in Sacramento. In this talk, she will share her research and insights drawn from her case files. Laurie finds that one of the more difficult areas for researchers is sorting out the large number of alien races referenced in abductee statements. Laurie will discuss her perspective on what the ETs want from us and what effect their activities might be having on human consciousness. She will also be discussing some differences she has found among the experiences of abductees from different cultures and geographic locales. Laurie has worked with hundreds of experiencers in the course of her career. In addition to her hypnotherapy practice, Laurie also works as the Regression Specialist with the Xperiencers Alien Encounters Investigation Team. In this role, she is brought in on difficult cases where hypnosis might help to confirm or rule out extraterrestrial involvement. She has learned to proceed with caution because in general, hypnotic regression bypasses any blocks created by the ETs to reduce the shock on humans of their contact with ETs. There is an inherent amount of emotional trauma that goes along with bypassing these blocks, but a good hypnotic regression specialist can control and minimize this trauma–and maximize the information retrieved. Laurie will share a technique she uses that allows her subjects to have a 360-degree view of their experiences. McDonald has recently joined the board of OPUS, the Organization for Paranormal Understanding and Support. She has been the recipient of the “Sacramento Best Award” for hypnotherapy services for two years running and is listed on the MUFON International referral list for regression hypnotherapy in cases where alien abduction seems to be involved.

LEN KASTEN January 20th, 2016

"SECRET JOURNEY TO PLANET SERPO" UFO and paranormal researcher Len Kasten will be with us to discuss a secret government exchange program with ETs from the planet Serpo, which allegedly took place in 1965. He will share the story of the Serpo team’s journey, which is derived mainly from email online postings made by “Anonymous,” who claimed to be a high-level former Defense Intelligence Agency member. Len subsequently compiled the Serpo info into his book, Secret Journey to Planet Serpo. Anonymous was considered to be the editor of “The Red Book,” a comprehensive set of classified volumes that detail all ET contacts with Earth beginning in 1947. The ETs or “Ebens” set up the exchange, in which twelve military personnel from Earth traveled to Serpo, a planet in the Zeta Reticuli system. Though Serpo is 39 light years from our solar system, the Ebens have allegedly perfected wormhole and antigravity technology, allowing them to make the journey here in just 9 months. Even though the American exchange team was picked up by a simple “shuttlecraft,” it had 100 ft. ceilings and the U.S. team’s 45 tons of supplies barely made a dent in the craft’s storage capacity. Serpo is said to be about the same size as Earth, with breathable air, but a much smaller population of 650,000. Most of the exchange team returned to Earth in 1978, though several members stayed behind on Serpo, continuing to send communications back until 1988. According to Kasten, the Ebens continue to have a diplomatic relationship with our civilization. During this talk, Len will provide us with a full overview of the program. Len Kasten is a graduate of Cornell University, where he majored in psychology. While in the U.S. Air Force’s Aviation Cadet program, he had a UFO encounter that had a transformative effect on his life. After his Air Force service, Kasten acquired a self-education in metaphysics at the Assoc. for Research and Enlightenment in Virginia Beach. He was a member of NICAP in the in the 1960s and an editor of the early New Age publication, Metamorphosis Magazine, which he co-founded with Gordon-Michael Scallion.

DANNY SHEEHAN July 17, 2019

"BEYOND BELIEF!

THE QUEST FOR THE ANSWER TO THE COSMIC QUESTIONS NOW POSED THE CONFIRMATION THAT UFOS ARE REAL"

In MUFON Orange County’s continuing lecture series, this month Mr. Sheehan will examine some of the more recent developments in ufology including revelations by a former Pentagon employee regarding a long-running program that investigates UFO sightings and the To The Stars Academy, both of which are featured in The History Channel’s documentary film, “UNIDENTIFIED.” Are these two events more (or less) than what they seem? He will take our audience beyond the discussion of whether UFOs are real or whether UFOs are being piloted by highly-intelligent, highly technologically developed…but distinctly non-human…beings from some extraterrestrial civilization, but, instead to: What are the “answers” to the profound philosophical, theological, psychological, sociological and public policy questions that are now being posed to humanity by the “reality” of this non-human species here in our Milky Way Galaxy.
