Craft from other worlds have crashed on Earth. Alien craft are from

both ultra-dimensional sources and sources within this dimension.

Early U.S. government efforts at acquiring alien technology were successful. The U.S. government has had live alien hostages at some point in time. The government has conducted autopsies on alien cadavers. U.S. intelligence agencies, security agencies, and public agencies are involved in the cover-up of facts pertaining to

the situation. People have been and are currently abducted, mutilated,

murdered and kidnapped as a result of the UFO situation.
