Stanton T. Friedman
Stanton T. Friedman is one of the most well-known and respected figures in the field of Ufology. Over the past several decades, he has dedicated himself to the investigation and research of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and has become a leading expert on the subject.
Friedman was born on July 29, 1934, in Newark, New Jersey, and attended the University of Chicago. He has a Bachelor of Science degree in Physics and Mathematics and a Master of Science degree in Nuclear Engineering. After working as a nuclear physicist and engineer, Friedman decided to pursue his passion for UFO research.
Friedman’s interest in UFOs began in the late 1940s and 1950s, when he first read about the Roswell Incident in 1947. This event, which involved the reported crash of an unidentified object in Roswell, New Mexico, is considered by many to be the starting point of modern UFO research. Friedman was captivated by the reports and began to read everything he could find on the subject.
Over the years, Friedman has conducted extensive research into the history of UFO sightings and encounters, and has investigated many of the most famous cases, including the Roswell Incident, the Rendlesham Forest Incident, and the Kelly-Hopkinsville encounter. He has also interviewed hundreds of witnesses, including military personnel, pilots, and government officials.
One of Friedman’s most notable contributions to the field of Ufology was his co-authorship of the book “Crash at Corona: The Definitive Study of the Roswell Incident” in 1992. The book presents the results of his extensive investigation into the Roswell Incident and provides evidence to support the theory that the object that crashed in Roswell was a UFO.
Friedman has also been a key figure in promoting the study of UFOs as a legitimate scientific discipline. He has given numerous lectures and presentations on the subject, both in the United States and around the world. He has also been a regular guest on radio and television programs, and has been interviewed by many leading newspapers and magazines.
Despite the ridicule and skepticism that often accompany UFO research, Friedman has never wavered in his dedication to the subject. He remains one of the most prominent and respected figures in the field of Ufology, and continues to investigate and write about UFO sightings and encounters to this day.

- Friedman has interviewed hundreds of witnesses to UFO sightings and encounters, including military personnel, pilots, and government officials, and has used this information to build a comprehensive database of UFO sightings and encounters that spans several decades.
