Steve Aspin, a retired medical-device inventor and author of Out of Time, describes a 1972 encounter at a Cheshire building site: two hours of missing time and a flying saucer seen through a glassless window that he says exactly matched Bob Lazar's Area 51 "sport model" drawing, which would not be public for another five decades. In Part 1 of his conversation with Matt Ford he also traces the origins of modern abduction research through Budd Hopkins and David Jacobs. https://www.youtube.com/w...

Close Encounters of the Third Kind modeled their aliens on real case reports “At the time there were quite a collection of drawings that date back to the late 60s and early 70s that Dr. Allen Hynek handed to Spielberg to use for his special effects. The figures in that movie were based on actual UFO research.” UFO researcher Budd Hopkins Excerpt from my new documentary on Spielberg’s early UFO interest and Close Encounters

Not only that… around the same time, Disney hosted a 2-week UFO conference with names like Budd Hopkins, George Knapp, Don Schmitt, and Kevin Randle. We break all of this Disney UFO stuff down on the latest Sound Light & Frequency on Thursday. https://t.co/W5jD1TYnxn [Quoted] In 1995, Disney aired a serious UFO special, “Alien Encounters from New Tomorrowland,” blending real alien/UFO stories to promote the 'ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter' ride. 👀 https://t.co/sI9GXsmEMG
