MUFON OC PRESENTS:

Ben Hansen has been hosting and producing UFO themed TV shows for over 11 years. Both on and off camera, he has added new leads and evidence to some of the most iconic UFO cases in history. In the middle of the UFO media frenzy, programs such as Entertainment Tonight, Access Hollywood, and Good Morning America seek him out to provide commentary on the latest UAP news. His own UFO programs include Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files, which originally aired on the Syfy Channel and UFO Witness which can be found streaming on the discovery+ app. Recently, he appeared in a popular 6-part series called Roswell: The Final Verdict, a special program Alien Invasion: Hudson Valley, and Alien Encounters Declassified--all of which can be found on discovery+ and the Travel Channel.

Ben will be sharing some behind-the-scenes research and summaries of several of the recent investigations he discussed on these programs. Revisiting the Dexter, Michigan case of 1966, he'll explain what he learned from Dr. J. Allen Hynek's personal files and from conducting his own experiments. The results shed light on why the "swamp gas" explanation was such a turning point for Hynek and hw he was led to change his assessment of the phenomenon. Ben has also been following the latest leads from Roswell and is excited to share new discoveries made using new deception-detection Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology to evaluate the credibility of the Roswell witnesses. Ben will also share some background and video clips from his recent investigation of the massive Hudson Valley UFO flap, which occurred in the early 1980s in New York state. His team used traditional "ghost/spirit investigation" equipment to explore a possible inter-dimensional component to the various phenomena that manifested during the flap. Finally, Ben will share his thoughts about the importance of educating the media and the public about the history of UFO activity on the planet--and how the resulting increased awareness of UFOs may help bring about Disclosure.
