CANBERRA, Oct 10 AAP - Evidence of extraterrestrials, top overseas experts
and the latest on alien abductions are all promised by the organisers of a
conference with a difference which takes off in Brisbane tomorrow.
Director of the Queensland branch of MUFON (Mutual UFO Network) Glennys
Mackay said top speakers including bestselling alien abduction authors
Whitley Strieber, whose book Communion became a film, and Professor John Mack,
would attend the three-day event.
But she is particularly excited about the appearance of the director of
Brazil's Centre for Flying Saucer research, Professor Ademar Gevaerd, who
says he will present proof that the Brazilian military captured several
extraterrestrial visitors on January 20 this year.
"This puts Roswell (an American town UFO watchers say was the site of an
alien autopsy supervised by the US Government) and all the others to shame,"
Mrs Mackay told AAP.
She said Professor Gevaerd would show photographs and also screen a video
rumoured to contain footage of an autopsy performed on the unexpected visitors,
left stranded after their spacecraft crashed near the city of Varginha in
central Brazil.
Mrs Mackay said she hadn't seen the video yet.
"All we know ... is that it has some pretty hot stuff," she said.
Witnesses, including military personnel, had told Professor Gevaerd the
aliens had small humanoid bodies, three protuberances in the head similar to
horns, and a strange odour.
Mrs Mackay said Brazil was not alone in being a popular attraction for
alien visitors.
"There's a tremendous lot of sightings at the moment of green and blue
lights over the Gold Coast and in the hinterland of northern NSW."
She is expecting about 500 people to descend on Brisbane for the event,
which has attracted delegates from France, Africa, Japan, Taiwan and the US
as well as from throughout Australia.
Members of the public - especially sceptics - were more than welcome to
attend, she said.
"It's good to have a healthy scepticism. This is an opportunity for
people to come and ask questions and check the information."
But she is confident the quality of the presentations will be convincing.
"I think if they don't go away believers they will go away and start
being open (minded).
"We're just trying to get the truth out."
