Budd Hopkins is a world-renowned artist, but MUFON audiences probably know him best as a pioneer abduction researcher and ufologys most visible figure. Having investigated well over 700 cases, he now heads the Intruders Foundation, a nonprofit, scientific research and support organization. Hopkins three books, Missing Time (1981), Intruders (1987), and Witnessed (1996) are widely regarded as the most influential publications on the abduction phenomenon. (Intruders was not only a New York Times bestseller, but also the basis for a 1992 CBS miniseries.) His latest book, Sight Unseen, is quickly gaining similar acclaim.

Hopkins' goal has always been to bring an objective, dispassionate scientific intelligence to bear on the UFO abduction phenomenon. Virtually from the beginning of the modern era of UFO close encounters and abductions, experiencers have reported a range of dramatic and perplexing physical after-effects. Hopkins asserts that though investigators have carefully documented the emotional and psychological effects of such traumatic experiences, a more thorough-going study of the patterns of medical anomalies is greatly needed. Hopkins will present a number of such cases from his own files, using slides that graphically illustrate some of these distinct types. He will offer some speculation by physicians and other medical experts as to their possible causes. According to Hopkins, a number of these anomalous after-effects involve the reproductive organs. He reports, In two cases, female abductees were found to have one missing ovary, with no apparent scar tissue to show how it was removed.

Despite its controversial nature, Hopkins' research has received serious commentary in such mainstream publications as Time, The Washington Post, and The New York Times. He has been a guest on hundreds of television and radio programs including Nightline, Good Morning America , The Today Show, and Oprah Winfrey.

  • Excellent post. Debunkers and uneducated critics are baseless. Just blow them off. Budd has an incredible discipline and mind. Unlike others, Budd is an award winning painter and sculptor and his work and collections are found in the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and the Whitney Museum of American Art. The critics of Budd, probably are so warped, there is no point of even trying to change their pedestrian and pathetic commentary or opinions.

  • @mayapapaya789 You could see the video in part 2 or 3. It's on youtube.

  • Rest in Peace, Budd. Thanks for all you did.

  • @HConstantine Chill out there buddy.

  • Anecdotal evidence is worthless. I go go on denigrating this confidence trickster for some time, but I have better things to do.

  • They're invisible!--just like elves.

  • @SIXTHS3AL Its because of your kind of weak-mindedness that his fraud propagated so greatly.

  • According to Dante, he's just starting his eternity in a red hot iron sarcophagus. None too good for the lying bastard.

  • @christpunchers that's because none have ever visited the earth, moron.

  • R.I.P
