The Amazing Case of Dr. X

Published in 1977, Jacques Vallee’s classic “The Invisible College” in my opinion is a must read for UFO investigators and experiencers who are willing to think outside of the box. In “The Invisible College” Dr Vallee states,  “In this book I will not confine myself to the examination of the physical reality but will step…toContinue reading “The Amazing Case of Dr. X”

The Reasons why Flying Saucer Intelligences might stage “Virtual” Instead of Exclusively Physical Encounters.

Two Important Caveats: 1. If UAP intelligences are physical beings and not some kind of intelligent energy, the safety concerns are likely important issues for them. 2. The Virtual Experience Model doesn’t propose that all encounters are holographic or psychic. In my judgment, interactions are occurring via both virtual and physical means. The Virtual Experience ModelContinue reading “The Reasons why Flying Saucer Intelligences might stage “Virtual” Instead of Exclusively Physical Encounters.”

Why is it more difficult in some countries to discuss UFOs?

The future has arrived. It’s just not evenly distributed yet.   I suspect that for many countries, especially in Scandinavia and then Germany, followed by France and the UK, it is far more difficult for UFO truth seekers to operate than say in the Americas, both North and South. I have often pondered this dilemmaContinue reading “Why is it more difficult in some countries to discuss UFOs?”

The Phoenix and LA CE-5 teams meet in Joshua Tree, & the things “you should never do when aboard ET spacecraft.” 

Contact Network History Project: Introduction          From the summer of 1992 through 1997, I volunteered as a Working Group Coordinator for a citizens’ UFO research project called the Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind Initiative.

High Strangeness at Robson’s Mining World.

Joseph Burkes MD 2004 INTRODUCTION In the spring of 1993 CSETI initiated an in-depth training that was a landmark for the organization. Over 60 UFO enthusiasts were to attend. The training was held in the middle of the Sonoran Desert 29 miles west of the town of Wickenburg at the site of an abandoned mine.Continue reading “High Strangeness at Robson’s Mining World.”

Group Contact Protocols Explained 

INTRODUCTION: General Remarks about the CE-5 Initiative and the current situation of human initiated contact. I wrote this article ten years ago to be translated into German by an engineer contact activist friend of mine. It is based on a chapter I wrote for a Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind Initiative’s handbook published inContinue reading “Group Contact Protocols Explained “

“Why me?”

Joseph Burkes MD 2011 “Why me?” is a question that many UFO experiencers ask. The non-human intelligences behind flying saucer phenomena have extraordinary mental capacities. It has been said that we are dealing with entities that can access our consciousness, as readily as we access light, by turning on a wall switch. They have probably interactedContinue reading ““Why me?””

 “What Planet Are You From?”

is the title a cute 2000 sci-fi comedy film about a lovesick alien that has a change of heart about wanting to take over the Earth. It is also the question that many “Earthlings” might ask if they were to meet a live ET. 
According to the highly speculative popular UFO literature, many assertions have beenContinue reading ” “What Planet Are You From?””

On Remembering Pain and Love

Contact Experiencers often only remember a very small portion of their mental and physical interactions with UFO intelligences. Might they be rendered amnesic to block memories of both pain and love? From time to time when reading the works of luminaries like Dr. Mack, I am reminded of the possibility that contact experiencers are only allowedContinue reading “On Remembering Pain and Love”

An Alternative to the “Night of Lights” Might be a “Night of Remembering” 

Joseph Burkes MD 2023 Contactees report having recurrent dreams sometimes called the “night of lights” in which the nighttime sky is full of flying saucers. A variant of this dream is one in which the daytime sky is full of structured craft. These are wish dreams that I must admit I have fancied as well.Continue reading “An Alternative to the “Night of Lights” Might be a “Night of Remembering” “
