Classic Episode: July 20, 2014 — Ghost Rockets: James Carrion

About this episode

Gene and Chris discuss deception in UFO research with guest James Carrion.

Gene and Chris present James Carrion, a former Director of MUFON and author of a unique book about what is called "The Greatest Deception in History." "The Rosetta Deception" is a fascinating piece of detective work explaining how "a master group of magicians" found ways to, among other things, unearth Soviet spies in the U.S. But it doesn't stop there. What about the early UFO cases, such as the Ghost Rockets, and were they real events, or the products of a carefully crafted program of deception and disinformation? And do such activities continue to the present day, and how do they impact research into UFOs?
