UFO Magazine is an American magazine that is devoted to the subject of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and the extraterrestrial hypothesis (ETH). It was founded in 1986 by Vicki Ecker and Sherie Stark, and is now published by Bill Birnes and edited by his wife Nancy Hayfield Birnes. It is one of the few magazines in print devoted exclusively to UFO phenomena.
With the term UFO trademarked in 1998, UFO, the Magazine is published bi-monthly in the United States and has covered every major breaking UFO story from the disclosure that a Soviet spacecraft had encountered a UFO to the Apollo astronauts' accounts of an alien presence on the moon. Featuring columnists such as Stanton Friedman, Nick Redfern, Larry Bryant, George Noory, and Colin Bennett and including writers such as Ann Druffel, Nigel Watson and Jaime Maussan, UFO Magazine was the first publication to break the story of Lt. Col. Philip J. Corso's revelations. It has also broken the story of Lt. Col. Marion Magruder's handling of the Roswell crash debris and face-to-face meeting with the Roswell alien as well as Jesse Marcel, Jr.'s story of the night his father brought the Roswell debris back to his home before taking it to the Roswell Army Air Field.
Famous quotes containing the word magazine:
“The barriers of conventionality have been raised so high, and so strangely cemented by long existence, that the only hope of overthrowing them exists in the union of numbers linked together by common opinion and effort ... the united watchword of thousands would strike at the foundation of the false system and annihilate it.”
