Jacques Vallee is an Internet pioneer, computer scientist, venture capitalist, author, Ufologist and astronomer currently residing in San Francisco, California and Paris, France.
In mainstream science, he began his professional life as an astronomer at the Paris Observatory. Vallée co-developed the first computerized map of Mars for NASA in 1963. He later worked on the network information center for the ARPANET, a precursor to the modern Internet, as a staff engineer of SRI International's Augmentation Research Center under Douglas Engelbart.
Vallée is also an important figure in the study of unidentified flying objects (UFOs), first noted for a defense of the scientific legitimacy of the extraterrestrial hypothesis and later for promoting the interdimensional hypothesis.
This interview focuses heavily on a controversial book, "Trinity," which Vallee coauthored with Paola Harris. Its main focus is on an alleged UFO crash in New Mexico two years before the 1947 Roswell episode and includes interviews with eyewitnesses, two of whom were still alive as of the time the book was published.
We'll also be joined by special guest cohost Curt Collins
Session Time: Sunday August 29 | 10:00 AM MDT | 9:00 AM Pacific
