Keith Thompson: Anomalous Phenomena—UFOs, Apports, and the Mystery of Consciousness
Earth AncientsOct 21, 2026
Journalist Keith Thompson, who introduced Harvard psychiatrist John Mack to the alien abduction phenomenon, discusses his new book 'Anomalous Phenomena: Apports and the Mystery of Objects that Materialize and Translocate.' He describes the Scole Experiment, a five-year series of seances in which coins, a 1944 newspaper, and images on sealed film reportedly appeared from nowhere, along with his own teenage experience of cosmic oneness and a near-death experience while drowning in Hawaii. The conversation ranges across Navajo Rangers investigating Bigfoot and skinwalkers, stigmata, Lourdes healings, Charles Lindbergh's phantom cockpit companions, and the state of UFO disclosure.
