Unknown Country - Oct 25 2013 Secret Journey to Planet Serpo Plus Special Interview

Did a delegation of US military personnel really visit another planet back in the 1960? Was this journey the secret inspiration for the film Close Encounters of the Third Kind? This week on Dreamland, we explore these questions with UFO researcher Len Kasten, who has found some provocative evidence that this legendary journey might actually have taken place.

Len Kasten is a longtime UFO researchers, a member of the Mutual UFO Network and of the former National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena. His articles have appeared in Atlantis Rising and New Dawn magazines, and he is also the author of the Secret History of Extraterrestrials.

Whitley Strieber comments, "I heard a rumor about this from a well-placed scientist back in 1995, so when it surfaced again, I was interested, but I've always had trouble believing that it could be true. Len Kasten makes a good case, and turns up some surprising evidence."

Are Films and TV Used to Prepare for Contact?

Len Kasten begins by discussing the mystery of the "Yellow Book" which is supposedly a history of what has really happened on Earth, very different from our own histories, then gets into whether or not movies like "Close Encounters" are being used to prepare us for contact. Whitley Strieber points out that the first movies that are reputedly preparation for contact offer a positive image of the visitors, but that there has been a change: current offerings are much darker and ominous. Listen as Len Kasten offers his considered response to why this would be so.
