Christopher O’Brien From 1999-2002 Chris investigated hundreds of unexplained events in south-central CO/north-central NM. His investigations are chronicled in his “Mysterious Valley” book trilogy and his event log of UFOs, cattle mutilations, crypto-creatures, etc., is one of the largest databases of unusual occurrences from a single region of North America.
His recent book, Stalking the Herd, is the most comprehensive book ever written addressing the perplexing “cattle mutilation” mystery. He is currently marketing UFO surveillance gear and software monitoring equipment with UFODAP. Their gear and software is already located in 43 locations in nine countries.
O’Brien has appeared on in over 90 TV show segments and films that include: Ancient Aliens, Coast to Coast, UFO Hunters, Inside Edition, Extra, Tucker Carlson Originals and TC Today, and he co-produced and edited the film It Could Happen Tomorrow, winner of two 2012 EBE film festival awards—for Best Feature and Peoples Choice Award and the Award winning documentary Accidental Truth. His research was funded by Laurance Rockefeller from 1997-2000.
From 2010 until 2018, Chris was the cohost of The Paracast. His website is: Our Strange Planet.
Greg Bishop In 1991, Greg co-founded a magazine called The Excluded Middle, which was a journal of UFOs, conspiracy research, psychedelia and new science. "Wake Up Down There!," a collection from the magazine, was published in 2000. Greg’s second book was "Project Beta," which documented a government campaign of disinformation around the UFO issue. Weird California, a portrait of strange and eerie history and places in the Golden State, was released in 2006.
From 2007 to 2011, Greg blogged for the UFO and paranormal site Ufomystic. His 2017 book "It Defies Language" anthologized entries from that blog along with new material. In 2017, he contributed an essay entitled “The Co-Creation Hypothesis” for the anthology "UFOs: Reframing the Debate." In 2019, he co-authored "A Is For Adamski," an encyclopedic overview of the UFO contact movement. His long-running podcast can be heard at radiomisterioso.com. His latest project is a tarot deck based on the history of UFO research entitled the Ufology Tarot.
He has appeared in many documentaries, such as Fields of Fear (about the cattle mutilation phenomenon) and Mirage Men (based on his book Project Beta), and in the Travel Channel series Mysteries at the National Parks and the History Channel series Unidentified. He also served as guest and subject consultant for the TNN series The Conspiracy Zone with Kevin Nealon. For nearly two decades, he has lectured extensively at conferences, conventions and colleges and universities.
David Marler has had a lifelong interest in the UFO subject and has actively investigated and researched the subject for 33 years. He joined The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) in 1990 as a Field Investigator Trainee. Since then, he has served as Field Investigator, State Section Director, as well as Illinois State Director. During his tenure with MUFON, he had conducted numerous investigations into alleged UFO sightings and related experiences.
Evidence of his historical research is his acclaimed book, "Triangular UFOs: An Estimate of the Situation." Here, he has provided a comprehensive analysis of triangular UFOs. He has collected, collated, and analyzed hundreds of reports. In the process, he has created a detailed profile of these objects and written a rich narrative of their history. David’s perpetual work in this field was recently recognized by him being awarded the 2022 UFO Congress Lifetime Achievement Award.
In November of 2020, he became the curator of the world’s single-largest historical collection of UFO case files in the world. These files include the historic NICAP and CUFOS case files in addition to Dr. Hynek’s original Project Blue Book files. He was offered the rare invitation of serving as a full Board Member with Dr. J. Allen Hynek’s Center for UFO Studies (or CUFOS). David willing accepted this invitation and now serves in the role as their official Archivist.
David has one of the largest historical UFO archives of books, journals, magazines, newspapers, microfilms, audio recordings, and case files from around the world that covers the last 75+ years. Due to this and additional UFO collections being donated to him, in November of 2022, David and his colleagues launched the National UFO Historical Records Center in the Albuquerque, NM area. This non-profit organization will serve as the largest U.S. UFO/UAP historical archive where David serves as the Executive Director. Work is currently underway to secure a building and donations to make this vision a reality.
David received his Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville (SIUE). He received his Certification in Hypnotherapy from Mottin and Johnson Institute of Hypnosis in St. Louis, Missouri.
