About the Author Stan Romanek grew
up in an Air Force family, migrating
among various military bases in the
Midwest and Western United States.
He and his wife and family are now
settled in the Midwest, where he works
in the computer field.
As an adult, Stan has pursued various athletic challenges: he has been a
champion bodybuilder, gymnast, swimmer, and an Olympic hopeful in cycling.
In contrast, his paranormal experiences, which he sometimes refers to as “high
strangeness,” have placed him on a course so bizarre that he strives desperately to
understand.
Stan has appeared on all the major television networks, as well as many other
cable and local stations, including a Peter Jennings ABC special, Larry King
Live, Fox and Friends, and the ABC Morning Show. The list of his radio
appearances and interviews is even longer, on stations from coast to coast. He’s
been a featured speaker at conferences on UFOs, and been interviewed or has
written for several UFO and paranormal-themed magazines.

Acknowledgments
A book like this is the culmination of the efforts of many people—some who
provided technical support and research assistance, and many others who simply
offered encouragement over the years. While the list of friends who have seen
me through these experiences would fill several pages, I especially want to single
out a few specific people.
My good friend Mark Stahl and my sister Ann Romanek have both been a
source of considerable support and encouragement.
A word of gratitude is also due to Drs. Kasher, Sprinkle, and Swanson, along
with the many researchers who have been willing to put their professional
credentials on the line to substantiate my story.
I want to acknowledge Nancy Talbott for her dedication and efforts in
arranging all the scientific analysis of the physical evidence in my case. Her
expertise has been an asset in making this case scientifically sound. I also want to
thank documentary filmmaker Clay Roberts for the many hours he has put into
helping me document my experiences, and for his work on a documentary to be
released in the future.
Thanks to my agent, Anita Kushen, for the many hours she has put into
making this book a reality. Additionally, I want to thank Alejandro Rojas and all
the people at MUFON for their assistance, as well as Rick Nelson from the
Paranormal Research Forum, a valuable friend and asset to the research team
who is always the voice of reason. I would also like to acknowledge our new
friend, Jack Butler, for his generosity in supporting the cause. Thanks to our
friend Heidi Soudani, who has been a source of support to both my wife Lisa
and me. I want to thank Victoria Albright for her friendship and help with
business matters, and for her optimism and undying commitment to this project.
Finally, I want to thank Jeff Peckman for bringing worldwide attention to my
story and this subject matter through his ballot initiative to create an
Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission in Denver, and his efforts to create a White
House Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission.
Most of all I want to thank my beautiful and loving wife, Lisa, without
whose love and support none of this would have been possible. Your patience
and understanding have been more valuable than you can imagine.
