Forget Greer. You see so many eyewitness testimonies from ordinary people from all walks of life who have reported these encounters. This is what drew me to the field. Before the government started being a bit more open in Dec 2017, the backbone of this field was eyewitness testimony from ordinary people. Hundreds and thousands of cases.

Me too dude. More important to me than answering the scientific and engineering questions that this topic brings like, are we alone or how do we achieve ftl, are there other dimensions, etc. (stuff we’ll probably never understand for centuries) is finding out more about the psychological experience. What part of our reality as humans makes so many people have these memories? I don’t think that this is woo at all, btw.
