Description

NEW BOOK – COMING IN 2026!

What do unexplained aerial encounters reveal about science, society, and the human search for meaning?

Encounters with the Unknown is a groundbreaking exploration of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) that bridges history, science, culture, and policy. Moving beyond sensationalism, this book presents ufology as a serious interdisciplinary field that reflects both our pursuit of knowledge and our deepest cultural anxieties.

The book begins with the origins of the UFO era in the 1940s, tracing how Cold War secrecy, government investigations, and media coverage shaped public fascination. It examines defense and aerospace implications, from radar tracking and sensor fusion to congressional hearings and international disclosure efforts. Scientific chapters delve into aerodynamics, materials claims, and astrobiology, setting rigorous standards for distinguishing anomalies from artifacts. Equally important are the psychological and sociocultural dimensions: how perception, stigma, media narratives, and collective memory shape the way UAP are experienced and understood.

Drawing on perspectives from history, psychology, philosophy, law, and aerospace science, Encounters with the Unknown provides both a definitive scholarly resource and a thought-provoking guide for general readers. At once rigorous and accessible, it asks what UAP reveal not only about the skies above but about human society itself.
