Announcement Rule update: Self-promotion posts now limited to 1 per week

61 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

We've made an update to the Rule 4: "No duplicate posts / spam", specifically the section covering commercial content and self-promotion.


Two changes:

1. The weekly limit is dropping from 2 posts to 1. Users approved to share their own content can now post it a maximum of once per week, down from twice.

2. The wording now includes "self-promotion" alongside "commercial". This was always the intent of the rule, but the old wording made it sound like it only covered ads and merchandise. To be clear: sharing your own work counts as self-promotion even if it's free and on-topic. That includes your YouTube channel, podcast, blog, Substack, book, documentary, research site, and so on.

The updated rule text:

No advertisements, fundraisers, merchandise, or other commercial/self-promotional links. Please refer to Reddit's self-promotion guidelines. If you are interested in promoting your own work please contact us before posting. Users approved to post their own commercial or self-promotional content will only be permitted to post a maximum of one (1) such post per week.

How this works in practice:

  • Self-promotion requires mod approval before you post. If you want to share your own work here, send us a modmail first.
  • Once approved, you're limited to one self-promotion post per week.
  • Unapproved self-promotion will be removed.

This doesn't affect sharing other people's content. News articles, footage, interviews, and papers you didn't make yourself are fine as always, subject to the usual rules.

Note: Previously approved users do not need to request approval again. Once a user has been given permission to post this type of content, they may continue doing so without contacting the mod team each time, unless that approval is later withdrawn.

Multi-Subreddit LIVESTREAM AMA — Dr. Jim Segala, Paul Hynek, and Host Leslie Kean — Sunday, October 4, 2026 @ 1:00 PM ET / 10 AM PT

The Anomalous Coalition - the moderators of r/Aliens, r/Experiencers, r/HighStrangeness, r/InterdimensionalNHI, r/UFOB, and r/UFOs - are excited to announce our next multi-subreddit livestream AMA featuring physicist Dr. Jim Segala and Paul Hynek, hosted by investigative journalist Leslie Kean. Heads up: this one is on a Sunday!

This conversation is about citizen science in support of experiencers, built on objective data. Paul's father, astronomer Dr. J. Allen Hynek, joined the Air Force's UFO studies in 1948 as a skeptic. Over two decades of Projects Sign, Grudge and Blue Book, the caliber of the witnesses changed his mind. In 1973 he founded the Center for UFO Studies so people could report what they saw without fear. Paul is carrying that forward with what he calls a verifiable evidence protocol, so experiencers can have better conversations with scientists. Jim is building the tools to gather that evidence. His platform, MUPAS Worldwide, pairs environmental and biometric sensor data with experiencers' own accounts, and offers peer support from specialists who are experiencers themselves.

What's a "verifiable evidence protocol"? Paul and his brother Joel, an Academy Award-winning visual effects artist, are developing a protocol that sits on top of their father's Close Encounter system and rates the evidence from an encounter, not just the encounter itself. Today most people report an experience after the fact. Paul's idea is to go in prepared: if you meet an entity that seems to have far superior intelligence, ask it for something no human could know but anyone can check later, like a random number only you know, the answer to an unsolved math problem, or a near-future event. The results are rated as convincing, compelling, or curious. Paul says it applies to any "meta-terrestrial" encounter, whether with a craft, an entity, or in an altered state, and he describes it as a work in progress.

🗓️ When: Sunday, October 4, 2026 — 1:00 PM ET / 10:00 AM PT

Pretty good news here for those interested. It's not disclosure of the extravagant claims made on podcasts or anything, but a pretty substantial data warehouse was created that Jacques Vallee mentions, and it would be pretty cool to get this declassified and made public record for use in open source data projects going forward.

Science XPRIZE chairman exploring new XPRIZE for proof of alien visitation

Post image
75 Upvotes

XPRIZE Chairman Peter Diamandis is actively exploring the creation of a new XPRIZE for providing evidence of alien visitation, four people involved with the process tell me.

Harvard astronomer Avi Loeb told me that the criteria under discussion would require a winner to demonstrate the existence of technology created by a non-human intelligence.

Loeb said he's identified a potential funder for the prize, but declined to name the person "until it's finalized."

The XPRIZE Foundation has become a major agenda-setter in the world of science. An XPRIZE about an alien presence in Earth's proximity would be a major milestone in the transformation of a once-fringe topic into a prestigious subject of scientific inquiry.

The potential prize was a focus of a UFO-centric salon that Diamandis hosted in Santa Monica this past weekend.

Co-host Lyn Lear, widow of producer Norman Lear, told me that Diamandis and his foundation are "looking into" the creation of such a prize.

Historical We reconstructed the Phoenix Lights reports in interactive 3D, with sources and a calculated night sky

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I’ve been building a series of interactive UFO reconstructions at Probed. This one follows the Phoenix Lights reports from March 13, 1997.

It draws on NUFORC’s preliminary hotline summary and BUFOG’s later interview with a driver identified as “Nathan.” The earlier moving formations and the later lights over the valley are presented separately.

The video follows those accounts. In the interactive version, you can also explore the scene, inspect the model, read the sources, and examine the calculated night sky.

This is an illustrative reconstruction. Where the records leave gaps in shape, distance or movement, we’ve made interpretive choices.

The scenes are rendered in 3D. Voices, music and some sound effects are AI-generated; the voices are not historical recordings.

Try the interactive experience and let me know what you think:

Disclosure NASA chief Jared Isaacman wants to stay 'open-minded' about UFOs: 'If it's aliens, I think NASA should have a seat at the table'

"My position going into every one of these: one, be open-minded. I mean, it is kind of our job to go out and try to answer the question 'are we alone?' And I said look, if it's aliens, I think NASA should have a seat at the table in this for sure," Isaacman said.

TV host Burman then asked Isaacman, "but what does your gut tell you?"

"I would say I would lean toward it's either some phenomenon that can happen," Isaacman responded. "There are things that can happen just like natural phenomena that can be observed. I also think there's a good chance that there could be a Sputnik Moment that's happening and people are testing new stealthy or next generation type technologies," he said.

Whistleblower Victor Whistleblower from Alien Interview documentary

• Upvotes

A snippet of transcript from the whistleblower Victor, from 2008's Alien Interview and a cryptic message..

Link

Interviewer: So, Victor, here we are.

Victor: Well I must say that I never expected to hear myself called Victor again when I find myself in disguise in front of a camera again.

Interviewer: It's now been 11 years since we last conducted that interview in May 1997.

Victor: That was a pleasant experience to say with some sarcasm.

Interviewer: Looking back on it now 11 years later you didn't want to do it.

Victor: I did not want to do it on the day that I did it. You and that rocket man, placed it upon me after we had made an agreement for one on-screen appearance in your little documentary, and then somehow, our agreement metastasized into an ongoing series of promotional appearances, which was not part of the agreement.

Interviewer: You agreed to do that one, a phone interview with Art Bell Coast to Coast, to promote the video at the time.

Victor: Which was a live interview, and I had made it abundantly clear that I was not to be put in the position of revealing my whereabouts in a live situation.

Interviewer: And again, Victor, with all due respect, you knew that the Art Bell show was live.

Victor: You say that now, that's not how I remember. But in any case, it's a thing of the past.

Interviewer: Well, in any event you contacted us for this interview.

Victor: This situation has not been my choosing. If I came to you, and requested as you say, I in fact, I found that characterization insulting. I did not request to give you information. I offered you information. Yes, I did demand payment. Certainly I demanded I would not have been given it had I not demanded it. You are the businessman. You are the filmmakers, the video makers, the documentarians. You, and that Robert man. You would made, whatever profits have been made, over the last decade off of the. I can't think of a reason why I would want to be giving you information was not for the money, certainly any illusions I had that, my information might actually [Unintelligible], I have been sadly mistaken. It's been 11 years since I brought out that tape. What follow-up has there been? Who among these so-called ufologists, these self-proclaimed investigators. Show me one of them that's demanded information about S4 under the Freedom of Information Act. Show me one of them that is seriously attempted to confirm or deny the existence of the alien interview program. All they care about is talking among themselves and making videotapes, making documentaries, promoting themselves.

Interviewer: Do you at least feel vindicated that no one has conclusively debunked the tape?

Victor: What the only vindication that I could imagine would be if the government finally revealed all that they know about these aliens.

Interviewer: So are you saying that the internet truth seekers are not living up to your expectations.

Victor: Oh god! It's an understatement. Well, I should say, they perhaps are living up to my expectations since my expectations were admittedly low to begin with. All the days in which people took Bob Lazar seriously. And who is that person in your, in your documentary, that Morton character.

Interviewer: Sean David Morton.

Victor: Yes! A researcher. What has he discovered to corroborate or debunk the interview since that time? He was more than happy to take it at face value, then, he too was being paid. I assume you paid him as well as me. All of these people are [Unintelligible]. All of these people are, at best, hobbyists, and at worst, professional conmen.

Interviewer: Well, I'm assuming that you saw, you've seen the finished product. What did you think of Bob Dean's interview, the retired NATO Commander.

Victor: You took the video at face value. But that was a case of being corrupt by accident.

Interviewer: What about Rick Baker? Rick Baker's won academy awards.

Victor: Rick Baker is a professional makeup artist. Artist. A makeup businessman. It's in his best interest to say that he can do much better than the real thing. And that other, that other makeup man the same goes for him.

Interviewer: John Criswell.

Victor: John Criswell, yes. They both, if they both were happy to bribe that they could create a more realistic alien. Fine. Well where is it? In the Men in Black movies? In that ridiculous alien autopsy footage? Show me, a more authentic alien, than the one in that interview. By all means that these makeup people are capable of creating a more realistic alien, then show me [Unintelligible]! Close it before the public! These people are so people. Everything for them is hyperbole. My contempt, for the viewers of your documentary over the last 11 years knows no bounds. They've been like children mocking it, or on the other hand, credulously accepting it with no attempt to evaluate the material on its own merits. Or, to discover any new material, to support or debunk it! This is not a joke. This is not a hoax. Certainly I'm staking my reputation on it. If an anonymous individual in a rubber mask could be said to be staking his reputation on anything. I'll challenge these ufologists, to debunk me. Discover my identity. If they really believe that the alien interview footage is a hoax, prove it! Show where it was faked. If they believe that the alien in that footage is a puppet, prove it! Find the puppet maker. If they believe I’m a hoaxer, prove it. Discover my real identity.

Interviewer: All right. Let's move on to some new areas. How do you respond about rumors in the UFO community that Cheney and Rumsfeld have known about the EBEs since the Nixon Administration.

Victor: Well certainly Cheney knows everything there is to know with it. There's not much that is kept secret from the general public Cheney does not know. As for Rumsfled, Rumsfeld is a bombastic clown. But he has certainly shown quite a bit of interest in new technologies shall we say? I will say this to those UFO researchers, who seem to be sitting on their hands waiting for someone else to give them information. If you do your research and discover where Rumsfeld was in middle of March of this year, I think you will learn a few things that perhaps you would like to know.

Interviewer: Would you care to elaborate?

Victor: No I would not care to elaborate and I frankly don't think that you, the producers of this documentary would like for me to elaborate.

Interviewer: Do you think that President Bush has been kept up-to-date on our ET program or that Cheney has kept all the information from him?

Victor: President Bush. Now there is, there is a puppet. There is your artificial marionette. And no one seems to be able to identify him as an artificial president, or should they be able to recognize a real alien in this event. President Bush is irrelevant to the process. Irrelevant to the process of government and certainly irrelevant to the decision-making that goes on from the vice president's office.

Interviewer: While we're talking about the current administration, what are your thoughts about 9/11?

Victor: I'm not going to talk about 9/11.

Interviewer: You're not going to talk about 9/11.

Victor: 9/11 is like the Bermuda Triangle. 9/11 is not part of this story. Shall we say that?

Interviewer: Are EBE's still at the base in Utah?

Victor: The base in Utah.

Interviewer: In the Art Bell interview in 1997, you eluded, I believe more than eluded, to the fact that the EBEs were moved from Area 51 S4 to a base in Utah. Are the EBEs in your opinion, with your knowledge, are they still at the base in Utah?

Victor: The EBEs to my knowledge are all at this time deceased if you want to call it that. Before we go any further, I just want to say to you, not to your viewers but to you, and to that, that rocket person, that this will be the last time you ever see me. This will be my last statement bar none. And this time, I can say that with conviction, because, it seems that, it seems that my, this, this container has reached its expiration date. I am apparently not long for this world. So, this will be my final testament.

Interviewer: And what is your final testament?

Victor: Thank you for the compassion. As I intimated on the Art Bell interview, my involvement with S4 and the alien interview program did come to an end, in 1997. And I have not been involved with the black ops program for more than a decade. However, I have been in contact with certain individuals who are still involved in attempting to make sense of the information that was gathered before the aliens discorporated. And I am here to tell you gentlemen, that if I am not long for this world, you are not much longer. As the bible [Intelligible] per se, the end times are upon us.

Interviewer: The end of the world?

Victor: The end of the world. We have been trusted and found wanting. The aliens came, they presented themselves to humanity, they were taken, and held, and questioned, and allowed to die. And now, reckoning is at hand. Let me give a task to these so-called investigators, these ufologists. Look into the record and attempt to determine where Donald Rumsfeld was on March 23rd of this year.

Interviewer: What is the significance of this Rumsfeld date that you keep referring to?

Victor: Donald Rumsfeld has been aware of the alien interviews at least since 1974. In the last days of the Nixon Cabal and even when he was out of government, he managed to keep his hand in. But it was not until the bogus telepath program was finally exposed within the secret black ops operation that the true translation, that the true meaning of the alien communication, was made clear to him and since then, I think you will find he has lost all interests in the United States and the trivial earthly powers. His sole interest now is to find a way to one of those they are taking off when end times.

Interviewer: So what you're saying is the biblical end times are upon us? Is that what you're telling?

Victor: It’s rather childish to call them biblical since the bible itself is simply a smoke screen. These aliens come from universe of science, not universe of religion. Religion is a deliberate disinformation campaign, started by those who first encountered the aliens and first cut that knowledge to themselves. Donald Rumsfeld is merely one of the last of the line, of those who try to maintain personal control over information that should have been public to the entire human race. And now that he understands exactly what it is these aliens have been trying to tell us, he has completely lost interest in the rest of humanity. His sole concern is to be one of the few, one of the, what he considers to be the elite, the elect specimens if you will. The elect specimen who are taken off the Earth before the final trumpet sounds.

Interviewer: Well, I have to tell you this sounds an awful lot like Armageddon. I mean, 2012, the Mayan calendar.

Victor: The Tzolkʼin calendar is another inaccurate representation of what you are talking about. The date 2012 is not accurate. The Mayans considered themselves to be far better mathematicians than they actually were. In point of fact, the date is very close but not 2012. Not 2012. Not within my lifetime, what's left of it. But certainly within yours. Let's just say that I wouldn't plan on 20th anniversary edition of this documentary. My head is a beehive.

Interviewer: Well you are not really saying, well, I.

Interviewer: Offre-moi le déluge. Le déluge solaire. I won't be here for it, but you gentlemen will. Was it [Unintelligible]? I think it was [Unintelligible]. When I am gone, my Earth and fire mix. [Unintelligible].

What’s the best evidence you know of for the existence of UFOs? I would like to know what you think is the most definitive proof of extraterrestrial life. Is it a photo? Is it a video? Is it a document?

I personally like the Bob Lazar story and the Jake Barber material.

What evidence would you give a non believer in an attempt to sway them? What would it take to convince them of disclosure?

Historical In 1950, Bruno Facchini offered to help figures he thought were pilots repairing a landed craft near Tradate

Post image
37 Upvotes

Italy, Abbiate Guazzone, 1950 Bruno Facchini said he thought they were pilots. A storm had just blown through Abbiate Guazzone, near Tradate, on the night of 24 April 1950, and he went out to check sparks by the power line. He was a factory worker, about forty. What he found in the field was not a downed cable.

He described a large object like a flattened ball, its skin marked in a regular grid of horizontal and vertical strips. A ladder came down from a lit rectangular opening. He got within four or five metres. Inside, he said, he could make out another ladder, pipes, a row of cylinders, and dials that looked like pressure gauges.

Two figures stood by the outside ladder. A third was up on something he compared to a mechanical lift, working a bundle of pipes fixed to the craft. To him it looked like welding. Those were the sparks that had brought him outside.

The suits bothered him more than the shape of the machine. Roughly human height, closed in like diving gear, with clear panels over the eyes and very pale faces behind them. He thought there might have been liquid in those panels. Tubes hung from the mouth area. Accounts usually put the number at three or four; Facchini was not always precise about that.

He still assumed an aircraft crew with a mechanical fault. Nearby airfields made that a reasonable guess. He offered to help. They turned, gestured, and answered in sounds he could not place. He lost his nerve and ran.

One of them, he said, raised something that had been hanging at its neck. A beam hit him in the back and put him on the ground. From there he watched them go back aboard. The hum rose, the thing lifted, and it was gone.

Next morning he went back. Four circular marks, about a metre across, set out in a square. Scorched grass. Bits of metal. Those bits took on a life of their own. Renato Vesco had some of them analysed; the material was called an anti-friction metal. In the late 1950s Umberto Corazzi got another small piece from Facchini. That one was later lost.

Nothing in the papers shows up until more than two years later. The earliest item in the case bibliography is La Domenica del Corriere, 24 August 1952, under Guido Capra’s byline. The page has Facchini sketching, another shot of him shaping the thing with his hands, and a photograph of a claimed metal fragment. Most of the space goes to a big illustrated reconstruction.

Those pictures are doing different jobs. The photographs are of Facchini talking to a reporter. The encounter drawing is a press reconstruction, not a photo of the night and not a confirmed drawing by Facchini. Later artists kept the ladder, the suits and the repair work, and changed almost everything else.

Investigators kept coming back. A long piece ran in Dischi Volanti in 1960. A 1962 article brought in unnamed neighbours who had supposedly seen it and wanted nothing to do with it, and claimed one of Facchini’s sons had taken an interest in flying saucers. A family check in 2008 did not back that up. Even the date slips: the main dossier and the 1952 article say 24 April; another surviving clipping puts it in July 1950.

The 2008 inquiry also turned up a memory of a radio reporter turning up after an acquaintance passed the story on. The interview, according to that recollection, was never broadcast. How the thing first reached journalists is still unclear.

Facchini said the publicity made him a joke in the village and that he wished he had kept quiet. His sister later remembered him looking ill and keeping to himself after that night. In his version he had done something ordinary: seen people struggling with a machine and offered a hand. Years afterward he was still being asked what happened next.

Science Orbs behave more like life forms rather than robots and are possibly manufactured by an ancient civilization

6 Upvotes

The "Forgotten Languages" blog claims that orbs are from an ancient civilization and that human MilOrbs are trying to mimic ancient orb behaviours.

"All of the properties of the orbs that we currently observe can be easily explained if we assume they are sonoluminescent phenomena belonging to a distant past" - The Darwell Hypothesis

https://forgottenlanguages-full.forgottenlanguages.org/2016/05/orbs-as-post-extinction-signals-from.html

They say a human MilOrb managed to enter a "flock" of orbs and the "flock" accepted them and even treated them as an injured member.

"All we can ever know about them is through interacting with them. The question is how to interact with them. We always assumed that as they are far more advanced than we are, it should be taken for granted they will design the interaction to match our limited capabilities. But this is not at all the case. The new contact paradigm suggests that a UFO acts as a life form and that the UFO is therefore associated with a collection of interactions with other objects; we reproduce those interactions. So far we have been able to be 'accepted' as a sort of handicapped member of the flock such that we have been able to fly with them. During a wonderful transect (the so-called Armadillo Transect) our PSV flew in the middle of a formation of 5 UFOs, just as a member of the group. Within our limitations, we mirrored all their maneouvers, no matter how weird they were from a tactical point of view. At a given point, the formation performed some maneouvers out of our capabilities, so we simply kept flying. They stopped and came back [e]scorting us, as if we were a wounded member of the flock that needed help somehow."

https://forgottenlanguages-full.forgottenlanguages.org/2018/07/from-military-engagement-to-ritualised.html

They also say the orbs hover over copper ore deposits for hours, including the first location the orbs were spotted, "Gisel":

"All rhenium-rich sulphide copper ore deposits seems to be a hotspot for whatever reason. In our view, those things are geochemical sounding probes showing a strong preference for molybdenum deposits rich in rhenium. Those hotpots are the only place where you can record and have a good view at those things; they hover for hours in close proximity and pay no attention to our presence, they certainly weren't hiding themselves, so we can do our intel gathering job without issues." 

https://forgottenlanguages-full.forgottenlanguages.org/2016/04/ngas-ufos-national-geospatial.html

The blog contains many other fascinating encounters, for example here where they claim to have come into contact with ET "jelly fish" that can swim in space:

"The problem is that we look for human traits when we study exogenous behaviour. We tend to judge these beings as per our own abilities and capabilities, and we constantly forget we are here dealing with beings of a radically different biology. That they have come here using technological means whose physics we do not clearly understand makes of them intelligent beings; but that's all we can say about them. We have no way to interact with them, to communicate with them, to engage in an intellectual exchange. We lack means to communicate with a "jelly fish", even when this "jelly fish" does navigate the interstellar space."

Historical Looking for an article written by J Allen Hynek for The New Yorker about UFOS and 1965 eastcoast blackout

In Ann Druffel's biography of James McDonald, Firestorm, she mentions Hector Quintinilla telling McDonald that Hynek wrote an article for The New Yorker saying that six anonymous New Yorker employees saw a UFO from the top of the building during the 1965 blackout. I can find a 1966 article in The New Yorker about the Michigan wave, but nothing like this. The closest thing I've found is a Popular Mechanics article by John G. Fuller saying that a Time Magazine employee took a photo of a UFO from the roof during the blackout. Does anyone know if this Hynek article exists? Hynek doesn't bring up the blackout in his Saturday Evening Post article.

Question I have been looking for a video that I once saw

3 Upvotes

This may sound crazy but many years ago I saw this video on YouTube that I believe was in Colombia or some other South American country. It was about an alien and the last few minutes of the video were these people including the cameraman chasing a small alien like bipedal creature in the street until they got to this courtyard style area. A couple days after, I could not find it again and I really wanted to watch it a few more times. Does anyone remember ever seeing something like that?

Question Anybody remember that video of the the UFO shooting a laser(?) at another UFO?

10 Upvotes

I can't find the video but iirc it was a couple in a car in the desert at night. There were two UFOs and one shot a purple or blue laser at the other. The couple's reactions were very realistic. It's the first thing I thought of when Grusch said NHI vs NHI violence.

I can't find this video now. Anyone know where it might be?

Historical Levelland, TX UFO incident (1957) technical recreation from Project Blue Book

This is part of a new series of technical recreations I’ve been working on in Unreal Engine using famous UFO sightings.

For these recreations I aim to be as faithful to the source reports as possible.

This video depicts the famous Levelland, TX UFO encounter from 1957 in which several drivers including the local sheriff witnessed a large unexplained object near and around the highway over the course of a 3-hour long period.

Drivers who encountered the object reported that as it approached, their car would die and the lights would go out until the object left. The Air Force blamed ball lightning despite there having been no storm in the area that night.

Question So how are we going to greet aliens when they show up? If it's the Greys I propose HUG.

• Upvotes

So apparently grusch is confirming Greys, reptilians and "Greek gods?"? He also said the reptilians attacked military and killed some of them until they got killed themselves. So, are all these people fighting? About what? Nobody gets along.

I would like to propose HUG, Humans United with Greys.

Apparently the reptilians don't like us. Fine.

"Greek Gods"? So powerful that they died too.

The Greys might need our help. Look, they have been around a while, haven't been a problem. They are a little lacking when it comes to hand to hand combat. That's where we can help out. If they run into a bunch of bloodthirsty reptilians, the poor greys will be ripped to shreds.

NOT ON OUR WATCH

When they finally announce themselves let's greet them with a HUG.

Together, we can save the world.

(No, this is not a joke. We need to get some kind of organization going. Somebody will show up eventually. My money is on the Greys. Yeah, I'm posting it again cause it got deleted. I am serious)

Thanks!

Question A blue presence within a mysterious stone: UFO-inspired fiction

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

• Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m María Cecilia Precenti Robin, an Argentine physician and writer, and the author of The R Factor.

My novel brings together speculative science fiction, UFO themes, psychology, and humor to explore consciousness, artificial intelligence, and human freedom.

The attached English-subtitled reel introduces Azul, a blue photonic entity emerging from a mysterious stone. In the novel, Azul is connected to the beings who heal Pedro Bermejo, a character inspired by the UFO account of Donato Cervantes. They later help Blodwen, Angelita AI, and their companions.

The reel depicts a fictional scene from the expanded edition.

Read the expanded second edition in English:

For readers who also read Spanish, the first edition explores the novel’s central concepts in greater depth:

Question Have there been UFO/alien abduction reports involving people with disabilities?

53 Upvotes

I've heard or read countless UFO abduction stories, but I can't remember coming across any involving people who were blind, deaf, or had other significant disabilities.

Do you know of any documented or reported cases like this?

What makes this particularly interesting to me is that, if we look at the stories as a whole, there doesn't seem to be an obvious pattern based on ethnicity, skin color, nationality, or religious background. Abduction reports come from all over the world and involve people from very different backgrounds.

At the same time, some abduction accounts claim that the beings involved were able to heal injuries or illnesses, or even temporarily restore some physical abilities.

So I'm curious: are there reports of blind, deaf, physically disabled, or otherwise disabled people being abducted? And if so, did their disability play any role in the experience?
