John Steiger has been engaged in UFO research since 2010. After attending the Roswell UFO Festival, John became inspired by the idea of a jury trial drama – with the audience as jury – to examine the truth between the arguments advanced by pro-Roswell UFO advocates and anti-Roswell UFO skeptics. Once he completed THE ROSWELL TRIAL, John proceeded to research THE RENDLESHAM FOREST UFOS devising a Board of Inquiry to question the prime witnesses and determine just what happened. His final drama herein, WILL TO BELIEVE: The Brooklyn Bridge UFO Investigation, is presented in the form of a debate among the principals as to the credibility of this transcendent alien abduction. THE UFO TRILOGY is John's first publication.

On October 11, 1973, the then 19-year-old Calvin Parker and his friend, Charles Hickson, were fishing in Pascagoula River in MS. They were abducted by three humanoids, taken into a glowing craft. On board the alien ship, both were subjected to a physical examination, before being returned to the river bank. When the ship departed, they found a telephone and called the sheriff. The next day, their encounter was national news which seemed to kick off the October 1973 wave of UFO sightings. Last year Parker told his story in detail for the first time including his regression sessions conducted by the late Budd Hopkins. Since publication of the book, other witnesses have been located and Parker has related additional past encounters with the aliens. His latest book is Pascagoula – The Story Continues.

Andy Marocco is a Flight 19 researcher and historian. After 70 years, he believes that one part of the Flight 19 mystery has now been solved.Over the past 3 years, he has discovered new and exciting information that was unknown and overlooked by the public and other Bermuda Triangle researchers. These clues have allowed him to calculate the probable location of the PBM Mariner, known by the call sign as “Training 49,” which disappeared after Flight 19 was lost. After presenting his findings to the Naval Air Station, Ft. Lauderdale Museum, they thought his research would lead to the successful recovery of Training 49. Therefore, he is excited to announce that the Museum has agreed to become a partner and the curator of the expedition that they call “Project Mariner.”

He has been publishing for over twenty years, and during this time has had the opportunity to publish some of the really great stories of America's History.Some of the books he wrote, and many are written by selected authorities, while others are reproductions of significant historical publications.Over the years, he has discovered dozens of artifacts, hundreds of manuscripts, and literally thousands of historic photographs -- all previously unpublished. All of the historic photos are carefully restored and each artifact, manuscript, and photograph he obtains is donated to public archives.

Having been a child of the late 50’s and throughout the 60’s, Bernie literally grew up in the middle of the “Space-Age.” He was surrounded by Sci-Fi themed comics, Sci-Fi themed black and white B movies and Sci-Fi television shows. And let’s not forget the many pulp sensationalist Flying Saucer expose magazines that adorned the newsstands at the time. So, believing in the unbelievable came believably easy for Bernie. Flying Saucers landing out in distant country fields, disgorging humanoids who run all over the place collecting rocks? NO PROBLEM! Now, throw Ghosts, haunted houses, the Abominable Snowmen (He didn’t have Bigfoot’s back then.) Nessie, silver-screen Werewolves, the monster under bed, or the one lurking in the closet into the mix, and the Fortean garden of the mind is thoroughly fertilized.

In the mid to late 1970s, Tessman was field investigator with the Aerial Phenomenon Research Organization (APRO) and Florida State Section Director for MUFON, but her work on the UFO puzzle began when she was 4 years old, possibly 5 when she was abducted twice by UFO beings in 1952/’53. Tessman has always had a few consciousness memories from those experiences; the most vivid memory is that her alleged “guide” alleged said, “We are from your future.” After many decades, I now have reached a point of certain knowledge, that at least some UFO occupants are Future Humans.In 1981, Tessman underwent hypnotic regression with Dr. R. Leo Sprinkle, at the University of Wyoming, and she claims to have remembered remembered many details of her alleged childhood encounter. She claims to have always had specific conscious memories, too.
