The Science Behind Alien Encounters
In this episode of Alien UFO Podcast, host Simon Bown interviews engineer and author Dr. Robert Farrell to explore the scientific principles behind Unidentified Flying Objects. Moving away from speculative theories involving time travel or parallel dimensions, Dr. Farrell emphasizes a "nuts and bolts" approach, utilizing his background in engineering to interpret UFO phenomena through the lens of physics. The discussion centers on the hypothesis that these crafts utilize advanced gravitational field propulsion. Dr. Farrell presents various pieces of evidence, including eyewitness reports from pilots, radar data, and physical anomalies—such as the rapid freezing of water and the displacement of dust—to suggest that extraterrestrial vehicles manipulate negative gravitational fields. Furthermore, the episode delves into the work of Zecharia Sitchin, connecting ancient Sumerian mythology and the Anunnaki to modern observations. Dr. Farrell also analyzes the potential link between 20th-century nuclear testing and increased UFO activity, proposing that human technological advancements, particularly in atomic energy, likely drew the attention of extraterrestrial visitors. The conversation offers a thought-provoking look at how scientific logic and ancient history might converge to explain the ongoing mystery of alien encounters.

About This Episode
In this episode Dr. Robert Farrell is talking about his book 'The Science Behind Alien Encounters'.
The reader will have a brief history of UFO sightings and encounters. How is the religious community dealing with the prospect of extraterrestrial life more advanced technologically and perhaps, spiritually? Why are the governments of the world so desperately trying to hide the existence of ETs? Despite governments’ downplaying the ET question, there is continuing research to find evidence of ETs beyond Earth and even on Earth in the form of designs in crops. What is the ET connection to the world’s oldest civilization in Sumer as well as that in Egypt? Many researchers over the decades have concluded that UFOs propel themselves by using gravitational fields. How is it theoretically possible to create a gravitational field? How has it been done in laboratories and even through serendipity? With such advanced technology, why do UFOs crash? What are these extraterrestrial visitors up to? In 2016, two species of bodies dated to have died over one thousand years ago, were found near Nazca, Peru. Both species are bipedal and tridactyl. One has only a 25% match to human DNA! The other appears to be reptilian and has DNA that does not match any known living organism! Are these two species extraterrestrials?
Bio
Dr. Robert E. Farrell received his Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering from The Ohio State University, his MBA from Western New England College and his Doctor of Engineering from the University of Massachusetts. He is now retired from Penn State University as Associate Professor Emeritus.
For most of his life, Dr. Farrell has been interested in ufology. Twenty years ago, he began doing serious research for his science fiction series of novels, Alien Log, Alien Log II: The New World Order, and Alien Log III: The Dulce Affair (Spring 2013). He believes good science fiction is based on good science. To that extent, Dr. Farrell is following the style of Michael Crichton (Andromeda Strain, Jurassic Park, and many others) and Arthur C. Clarke in his Odyssey series. Recently, he has completed a nonfiction book The Science Behind Alien Encounters. It is available as both an E-book print version. This book is based on his lecture series of the same name. Another nonfiction book in the works is a co-authored work explaining how the universe began WITHOUT a Big Bang.
Dr. Farrell has lectured many times at universities, science centers, MUFON meetings, book stores, clubs, and senior centers around the country, and has appeared on numerous TV and radio shows including Coast-To-Coast AM with George Noory.

UFOS: Not For Disclosure
In this episode of the Alien UFO Podcast, host Simon Bown sits down with Jonathan Kaplan, a distinguished King’s Counsel and longtime Ufology researcher, to discuss his new book, Not for Disclosure: UFOs, the World’s Best Kept Secret. Drawing on fifty years of research and insights from highly placed intelligence contacts, Kaplan provides a compelling look at the history of crashed extraterrestrial craft and the global efforts to keep them hidden. The conversation explores the reality of crash retrievals, from the 1933 Magenta crash in Italy to incidents in the United States, Russia, and beyond. Kaplan argues that these events are not mere myths but are part of a highly classified effort by world powers to reverse-engineer advanced technology. He details the roles of special access programs and the use of private defense contractors to maintain secrecy. Additionally, the discussion touches upon the authenticity of the Majestic 12 documents and the Special Operations Manual, which Kaplan maintains offer a genuine, historical account of how governments have managed the discovery of non-human intelligence since the 1940s, balancing the public’s right to know against concerns about global stability.
Alien/Human Hybrids
In this episode of the Alien UFO Podcast, the host explores the complex biological challenges surrounding the concept of alien-human hybrids. Drawing from the book Investigating the Impossible: Biology Offers New Answers and Insights by Steve Aspen and Andreas Lux, the discussion delves into why creating true biological hybrids between humans and extraterrestrials would be incredibly difficult due to profound genetic and cellular incompatibilities. The episode proposes an intriguing alternative theory: rather than being true hybrids, the beings reported by abductees may actually be transgenic humans. These entities are potentially created through in vitro fertilization and the insertion of specific non-human or synthetic genes at an early embryonic stage. The host examines the possibility that these ongoing abduction programs are focused on long-term genetic modifications or the introduction of genetic markers. Furthermore, the discussion touches upon the provocative idea that these programs may aim to reduce aggressive human behaviors—such as those linked to testosterone—to prevent future global conflicts. This deep dive into the intersection of genetics, biology, and extraterrestrial testimony provides a thought-provoking look at the mystery behind these reported encounters.
Alien-Human Hybrids
In this episode of the Alien UFO Podcast, host Simon Baum invites guests Steve Aspen and Dr. Andreas Luck to discuss the complex and often controversial subject of alien-human hybrids. Drawing from their book, Investigating the Impossible, the conversation delves into the biological feasibility of such beings. Dr. Luck, a molecular biologist and geneticist, provides a critical scientific framework, explaining that true hybridization between species is incredibly difficult due to the precise biochemical and genetic requirements of human development. The hosts explore David Jacobs’ five phases of hybridization, noting that in later stages, these beings appear indistinguishable from humans. They argue that these advanced entities are likely not true hybrids, but rather transgenics—humans with specific genetic modifications designed for integration into our society. The discussion also touches upon the persistent theme of multi-generational genetic alteration, with the guests drawing parallels to laboratory research where specific traits are tracked across successive generations. Ultimately, the episode challenges listeners to consider whether these interactions are a highly advanced technological project or a biological impossibility, sparking a deep inquiry into the nature of human existence and potential non-human interference.
Meeting The Acrturians
In this episode of the Alien UFO Podcast, the host explores the profound experiences of James Kelly, author of Awakened by the Stars: You Have Been Chosen. This installment provides listeners with an intimate look into the book’s eighth chapter, titled The Eyes of Light, where Kelly recounts his encounters with the Arcturians. The narrative shifts away from traditional abduction tropes to focus on deep themes of soul memory and familial recognition. Kelly describes his Arcturian star family as radiant, telepathic beings who served as gentle mentors throughout his life. He shares personal anecdotes about his sister, Sari, who guided his development in love and spirit, and introduces Arla, a being from the planet Noor tasked with helping him unlock his cosmic consciousness. Throughout the discussion, Kelly emphasizes the feeling of belonging to both Earth and the stars, framing his life as that of a bridge between realms. Listeners are invited into a heartfelt exploration of spiritual awakening, interdimensional connections, and the idea that humanity carries ancient, starlit origins within their very essence.
Encounters with Non-Human Intelligence
In this episode of the Alien UFO Podcast, host Simon Bown reconnects with Mary Rodwell, a renowned researcher and founder of the Australian Close Encounters Resource Network. Rodwell shares her extensive expertise on the extraterrestrial contact phenomenon and the concept of the New Human. Drawing from her background in nursing, counseling, and hypnotherapy, she explains how she transitioned from conventional medicine to investigating the multidimensional nature of human existence and its connection to non-human intelligences. A central theme of the discussion is the transformative power of contact experiences. Rodwell notes that, contrary to popular fear-based narratives, many individuals undergo profound psycho-spiritual growth after their encounters, often describing the process as a modern-day shamanic awakening. She also delves into the use of screen memories, such as owls or clowns, and the fact that a large percentage of contact events occur out-of-body rather than physically. By framing these encounters as matters of expanded consciousness, Rodwell highlights the urgent need for better professional support systems for experiencers, encouraging listeners to embrace their multidimensional nature despite the limitations of consensus reality.
Terrifying Abductions By The Greys
In this episode of the Alien UFO Podcast, host Simon Baum welcomes guest James Kelly to discuss his book, Awakened by the Stars: You Have Been Chosen. The conversation centers on Kelly’s lifelong experiences with extraterrestrial entities, specifically his encounters with the Greys and the Arcturians. Kelly recounts his journey from early childhood, describing the trauma of recurring, terrifying abductions by the Greys, whom he characterizes as negative and experimental in their interactions. In stark contrast, he describes his experiences with the Arcturians as peaceful and transformative. He reveals his identity as a starseed—a hybrid being created from Arcturian and human DNA—and explains how this heritage led to specialized training on the Arcturian home world. Throughout the discussion, Kelly reflects on the difficulty of navigating these realities while growing up in the 1970s, as well as the later stages of his life where he has transitioned from student to mentor. He shares insights on his ability to use telepathy to protect himself and others, and discusses the challenges of reconciling these extraordinary experiences with his personal life and family.
