About this book
What happens when the modern UFO mystery meets humanity’s deepest past? UFOs & Ancient Aliens follows the evidence from the birth of the flying-saucer era through Project Blue Book, the Nimitz “Tic Tac” encounter, NASA, AARO and the modern UAP debate—then turns toward the ancient world and the claims that have linked old monuments, myths and artifacts to visitors from beyond Earth.
Rather than treating every unexplained case as proof, Alden M. Corvale separates documented fact, interpretation and speculation. Famous incidents are placed beside government records, witness testimony, sensor evidence, archaeology and the limits of what the surviving evidence can actually establish.
For readers fascinated by UFOs, UAPs, ancient astronauts, declassified files and unexplained history, this is the starting point for The Unexplained Files.
