Hey guys! Thanks for joining this forum. Creating it has been my little baby for the past couple of months. Just wanted to give some background info on me or at least what I feel comfortable sharing over the Internet, which could be surveilled via government forces. I've been participating in the search for extra terrestrial life for over a 15 years now. It all started getting really serious for me in 2008 when I first visited the Allen Telescope Array - which I'm sure you've already heard of but if you haven't, it's the only telescope array that is dedicated entirely too listening for extra terrestrials and it's run by SETI. While visiting I made contact with folks, who's sources of information goes deeper than I am allowed to divulge. Since then it's been my all consuming passion and every day I know I'm getting closer to uncovering the truth. Would love to get to know you guys, so feel free to tell me how you got interested in extraterrestrials!
I've always been fascinated by thought of ETs since I was a little kid. As I got older this fascination grew and I would read and research and watch the night sky hoping for a glimpse of something. There have been times when I thought I saw odd lights in the sky, but who knows.
Interestingly though I have always had horrible nightmares , not your typical stuff I always thought it was my dreams. They worsened and I began to believe it was paranormal activity. Relatives from Iowa decided to share some stories about crop circles on the family farm, lights in the sky and they believed they were visited by aliens. They finally told me this because they firmly believe that my "nightmares" were memories of my abductions. They believe that aliens have been watching or experimenting on our family.
i've always been a huge fan of sci-fi, including a passion for star trek. i especially love video games set in space, such as outer worlds and the upcoming starfield (so excited!) that brought me down a natural progression of being interested in aliens. i love fantasizing about the unknown.
I like learning about astronomy but don't really have much knowledge about aliens. Alien movies are cool though ! Sigourney Weaver is my fav 😍
i started less with UFOs and more just wanting to be in space; there was a time when i was working to get an aerospace degree to make it happen, and i spent sooo many hours arguing about warp drives on h2g2(dot)com (if anyone knows of that site from Ye Olden Days). over the years it's morphed into curiosity and interest in who's out there - firm believer in Not If But Who/Where here - and i'm excited to connect with a group of like-minded people. i think what we're going to learn here will be extraordinary.
ETs have always kinda terrified me, which naturally made me even more curious of them. Then, one day I went to the alien jerky place on the way back from Vegas and realized that they have been amongst us all along in the form of jerky connoisseurs!
That's when I can truthfully say that I wanted to learn more about them.
My experience with the UFO phenomena is fairly extensive. I was raised listening to Art Bell and reading about Roswell and such. My interests grew as I got older and I was fortunate enough to have parents who supported my interests. I went to Area 51 in '95 before Freedom Ridge was eminent domain'd into vapor, taught a high school course for a semester on the UFO phenomena and have maintained my interest through adulthood. This is an exciting time for the subject with more serious mainstream attention than I've ever seen. Looking forward to seeing what mysteries pop up around here.
I got into extra-terrestrials and UFOs in high school, I think, or maybe even before that. I think it was when I first learned about the Integratron that I got really into this stuff. The movie Fire in the Sky was a big influence, as well. After college my best friend and I went on a UFO tour of the Southwest, hitting the spot where Travis Walton was abducted from and also Roswell, of course.
