Aliens from Space

Keyhoe, Donald

Signet

Presented for a new generation, this thrilling reprint of the very first book-length investigation into the UFO phenomenon follows in the pulp tradition of the original 1950 pressing, which sold more than half a million copies. Rumored to be the inspiration for the character of Fox Mulder of The X-Files, leading ufologist Donald Keyhoe delivers the results of his groundbreaking research in a style that is at once terse and businesslike, imbued with a sense of wonder at the mysteries and possibilities he is confronting. Keyhoe argues that aliens&mdash;whatever their origins or intentions&mdash;do not seem hostile and have likely been surveilling the Earth for 200 years or more, though Keyhoe writes that their "observation suddenly increased in 1947, following the series of A-bomb explosions in 1945." This stunning work of nonfiction touched off everything we associate with the UFO phenomenon today&mdash;the widespread paranoia, the government disinformation campaigns, and the inevitable conclusion, for many people the world over, that UFOs exist and do not have an Earthly origin.

"Answers have been - and will be - drawn from such factors as guided missile research activity, balloons, astronomical phenomena. . . . But there are still question marks. "Possibilities that the saucers are foreign aircraft have also been considered. . . . But observations based on nuclear power plant research in this country label as 'highly improbable' the existence on Earth of engines small enough to have Powered the saucers.

"The Flying Saucers Are Real" investigates numerous encounters between fighter pilots, other people, and UFOs. Author Donald Keyhoe states that while Earth has been visited by extraterrestrials for centuries, the Air Force was actively investigating these cases of close encounter, and hiding them from the people. "The Flying Saucers are Real" is not fiction. Keyhoe researched real facts and sightings, concluding that the saucers are interplanetary. Keyhow, who had some access to original military files, did not believe in "visitors from space" before starting this book. Keyhoe examines the most prominent UFO cases up to 1950 - the Kenneth Arnold sighting, the Mantell Crash, the Chiles-Whitted UFO sighting, and numerous others - and offers his views on the subject. After checking every other possible answer thoroughly, however, he saw that they didn't fit in the sightings and the reports. "The Flying Saucers are Real" is a must for anyone who wants to know the truth about the UFO phenomenon. In the realm of UFOlogy, it was not only one of the first, but also one of the best reports ever written on the subject. There is no sensationalism in the pages of this excellent tome - just cold, hard, and well researched facts. Donald Keyhoe was one of the most prominent figures in the early history and development of the UFO phenomenon in the U.S. His book "The Flying Saucers Are Real "established Keyhoe as a leading figure in the UFO phenomenon, and over the next two decades he would be frequently interviewed on television and radio. In 1957 he became the leader of NICAP (National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena), the largest and most influential civilian UFO research group of the 1950's and 60's. He remained NICAP's leader until 1969.

This book was written in defiance of the U.S. Air Force, the CIA, the NSA, and other government agencies in charge of investigating UFO sightings and other proof of alien visitors from outer space.For reasons of their own - reasons clearly explained in this book - these agencies do not want the public to learn of their findings.But despite the official wall of silence, the gagging of many witnesses (among them some of the Air Force's most capable pilots), and gigantic public relations blitzes to brainwash the public, the truth is emerging.Ancient astronauts have, indeed, visited us from the beginning of history to the present day. And this is the book that - at last - completely proves it, using evidence accumulated by the government itself!

The Truth About UFOs: Ancient Astronauts From Outer Space

This book was the first in-depth, authoritative look at the flying saucer phenomenon and is considered to this day to be one of the best books on the subject ever written. An extremely important work with facts that were documented, containing none of the disinformation and hype that has crept into the UFO field over time. The author was a retired Marine Corps Major who became an aviation writer, and was therefore perfect for the job of researching and writing this book. Using his own knowledge and information from friends in the military, Keyhoe came to the conclusion that UFOs originate from outer space and the U.S. military was engaged in a cover-up. He includes a number of documented cases whereby thousands of people witnessed strange objects in the sky all at the same time, in various parts of the country. Eyewitnesses are interviewed and much is done to show how and why the veil of government secrecy was enforced.
