Title: Are we alone in the universe with Chris Costanza

Event Info:

Is earth being visited by extraterrestrial intelligences. today we will explore that question – not through speculation alone, but by examining some of the most compelling and well documented cases of UAP's (UFO's) available. However, before diving into these accounts, we will begin with something more fundamental: how we perceive the world around us. Human perception is powerful.  And understanding the limitations of our senses—and the risks of misinformation—is essential.

From there, we will review key incidents spanning from the 20th century to the present day. Finally we will turn to recent testimony presented before the United States House Oversight Committee on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena.

This discussion is not about drawing definitive conclusions. Rather, it is an invitation—to question, to analyze, and to consider the possibilities with curiosity and critical thought, leaving each of you to decide what you believe may—or may not—be happening in our skies.
