The Secret History of Extraterrestrials
“With our present knowledge of the cosmos, there is now a real possibility of evolved and intelligent civilizations elsewhere in the vast cosmological space. And possible visitations and even encounters can no longer be ignored. Naturally we must tread with caution and not jump to conclusions too easily and too readily; but we must also keep an open mind and respect those bold investigators who apply rigorous research and common sense to this fascinating although very debated hypothesis. Len Kasten is such an investigator, and his book The Secret History of Extraterrestrials is a must for the libraries of all seekers of truth with unbiased minds.”
ROBERT BAUVAL, AUTHOR OF THE ORION MYSTERY ,
MESSAGE OF THE SPHINX, AND BLACK GENESIS
“Len Kasten has provided an up-to-date survey of the vast array of issues that are now emerging into the public consciousness regarding an extraterrestrial presence engaging the human race. For those who want to jump right into the pool and not just sit on the side and dangle their feet, take the plunge with The Secret History of Extraterrestrials.”
STEPHEN BASSETT, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
OF PARADIGM RESEARCH GROUP
“You can always count on Len Kasten to take you on a spellbinding galactic adventure, for he never fails to seek out ideas and theories that challenge your assumptions of what is true while firing your imagination. Whether in this dimension or another, be it past or future, your travels with Len Kasten will open your mind and introduce you to realities and experiences, you may have mistakenly assumed can exist only as fiction.”
PAUL DAVIDS, DIRECTOR/PRODUCER OF JESUS IN INDIA
AND EXECUTIVE PRODUCER/COWRITER OF
ROSWELL: THE UFO COVERUP
“This comprehensive book covers some of the most intriguing UFO and alien-contact cases ever reported. Len Kasten has done a fine job of drawing together some fascinating material and asks some profound questions about what this means for the human race.”
NICK POPE, UK MINISTRY OF DEFENSE, 1985–2006

Introduction
The Secret History
My interest in UFOs and extraterrestrials was started, as it was for so many people, by a “sighting.” At least that was what I have always believed it to be. But several people in the world of “ufology” (the study of UFOs) have since pointed out to me that my experience sounds more like a “close encounter” and that I may have actually been taken on board the craft. I was in the U.S. Air Force at the time. It was rather strange and uncharacteristic that I would suddenly wake up at 3 a.m. and run to the window of my barracks room to look out. But I did that, while my roommate remained sleeping soundly, just in time to see the craft flashing by, almost at eye level and no more than one thousand feet away.
Glowing with a green and gold phosphorescence, it flew silently by at a very high speed, and I watched it disappear out over the Gulf of Mexico with my face pressed to the window. The next morning, the tower operators on the night shift returned to the barracks and reported that they had four UFOs on the radar that night, hovering over the end of the runway at about 2 a.m. I told them what I had seen apparently coming from the runway, and they suggested that I report my experience to the UFO office. At that point, I had no idea what a UFO was, but I found the office. I was somewhat amazed to find a captain there with a multipage questionnaire. He didn’t seem at all surprised at my report, nor was he very impressed with my estimated superspeed of the craft.
The next day I became very ill with flulike symptoms and had to spend three days in the base hospital. I have since learned that such a reaction to being on board an alien craft is not uncommon. So, while I have never been hypnotized to find out what happened that night, it now seems very likely that I had been a guest of some cosmic visitors. I have no idea what I might have learned on board the craft, since the memory is evidently buried deep in the recesses of my subconscious, as is the case with most abductees.
However, a few years later, while working for IBM in Washington, D.C., I found myself inexplicably drawn to join the National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena (NICAP), the first widely known UFO organization in the country. And my interest in ufology and extraterrestrial visitation has never flagged since. I later learned that the founder of NICAP had been T. Townsend Brown, the pioneer scientist in the development of antigravity technology. The director at that time was retired WWII naval aviator Major Donald E. Keyhoe, author of the book The Flying Saucers Are Real and now recognized as one of the illustrious names in early ufology. U.S. Navy Vice Admiral Roscoe H. Hillenkoetter, a former director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) who had been an original member of Majestic-12 (MJ-12; see appendix), was on the board of governors. MJ-12 was the top-secret committee assembled by President Harry Truman in 1947 to deal with all matters relating to UFOs and extraterrestrials. In those early days, Hillenkoetter pushed for UFO disclosure to the public. In a letter to Congress in 1960, he wrote, “Behind the scenes, high-ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about UFOs. But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense.” Also on the board at that time was journalist Frank Edwards, best known for his book Flying Saucers—Serious Business. NICAP was absorbed into the Center for UFO Studies (CUFOS) in 1978, and all of its very valuable files have been preserved in that organization.
I have been the primary UFO/extraterrestrial (ET) feature writer for Atlantis Rising magazine since its inception over fourteen years ago. I have written over fifty published articles for the magazine, most of which were focused on these and other related subjects. I found that, when taken as a whole, my articles, while not written in any historical sequence, do represent a unique body of research into the secret history of our contact with aliens, primarily in the modern era, and do, in fact, constitute a rough summation of that history as well as what we have learned from those contacts. Consequently, it was very easy to reassemble my articles to provide a coherent narrative in book form. This introduction is intended to give a more smoothly flowing, brief history of extraterrestrial contact to show the reader how each chapter fits into the big picture and to fill in some of the gaps. Also in this introduction, I have taken on the formidable challenge of attempting to explain why a virtually impenetrable blanket of secrecy has been thrown over this history for more than sixty years.
The human race in the twenty-first century finds itself in a strange place. It is slowly dawning on us that the world we see around us is a cleverly designed illusion and that we have been expertly manipulated to believe it to be reality. And believing in it, as we do, we are thereby led to behave in certain ways. These behaviors are basically simple, repetitive, and essentially mindless, and primarily geared to economic survival and primitive enjoyment. Underneath the seemingly placid surface, there are continual frustrations and angry rumblings that frequently break through to manifest as violent recriminations against each other. We blame each other for our predicament, so we go to war. But new technologies and gadgets continue to keep us entertained and distracted and less likely to challenge the status quo. So we are kept on our treadmill. And always there is the overarching fear of death.
Now, in the age of the Internet and thanks to hundreds of books about conspiracies and UFOs as well as fifty years of science-fiction (sci-fi) movies, our mass consciousness has started to expand, and we have begun to examine our cosmic situation objectively and free from religious bias. As we begin to awaken, we discover that there are some who know the truth but choose to keep it secret. They are our controllers. They ask the questions: Are you not happy as you are, and why do you need to know more? This leads us to believe that the controllers are basically benign and that perhaps we, like sheep, must stay in this world and continue to graze because we are not suited for anything better. Whereas they, because they are superior, can live in, and enjoy, the “real world.” But to some who are awakening, this is not an acceptable situation, and there is a growing suspicion that we are deliberately being kept in the dark and manipulated by the controllers because they are somehow gaining from our placid ignorance.
Just as we periodically shear the sheep and at the end turn them into mutton, perhaps we too are somehow, in some way, being sheared and will eventually become lamb chops for those who control us. So a nagging question arises: Are we really sheep, or are we something more, and have we been tricked into believing that we are sheep? Now, at the end of the first decade of the twenty-first century, more and more spiritually aware people are asking that burning question, and it is becoming increasingly urgent to find the answer. But the controllers are heavily invested in keeping us from learning about our true nature. It is beginning to appear that this may be the reason we are not being told about the extraterrestrial presence on Earth. If we were to be informed that we are now being visited by adv
anced aliens and that they have the ability to pull us out of our darkness and to shed light on our origins and our spiritual potential, then we would no longer settle for being gentle grazers in the meadow. We too would travel to the stars. It would be “goodbye sheep, goodbye wool, goodbye mutton.”
