My transfixed video photo represents a moment in time with EXTRATERRESTIALS being contacted through flashing amber lights from a parked white van at around 2 am. This event has re-occurred a number of times. This extraordinary scene has been captured on video and witnessed. Ets, of course, are a radioactive and fraught issue. Nonetheless, they EXIST-willy-nilly. In the 17th century, Johannes Kepler discovered the elliptical orbit of planets around the sun. He was more than convinced that life was abundant in the universe. Kepler even wrote a book about alien worlds. And the late great Carl Sagan promised that we were not alone. The US government has finally recognized this phenomenon. Finally, and most importantly, I’m able to contact and move a spaceship with a light and with MY MIND. Also witnessed. As the saying goes, I’m looking for those friends in the stars.
