The Face on Mars: Q&A

My latest Mysterious Universe article is a Q&A with the late Mac Tonnies on his research into the "Face on Mars" controversy.

And it starts like this:

"This summer will mark the 10th anniversary of the publication of Mac Tonnies’ book on the 'Face on Mars.' Its title: After the Martian Apocalypse. While, today, the 'Face' may not provoke the scale of controversy that it did a decade ago, there are still significant things to say about it. One of them is an interview I did with Tonnies just after the book was published.

"The Q&A was for a magazine that folded just after it barely began, which meant it never saw the light of day. But, I kept the interview on file and figured: why not bring it to your attention? It’s a long interview, so I’ve split it into two-parts. In the Q&A below, I am, of course, 'NR,' and Mac is 'MT.'"

One can take even the most cursory glance at ufological history and see clear signs where events of a presumed alien and UFO nature have been carefully controlled, managed and manipulated by the intelligence behind the phenomenon."

Those are the opening words of a new article from me at Mysterious Universe - actually the first of a 2-part article - on the issue of how the intelligence behind the UFO phenomenon engages in deep manipulation of the witness...
