Richard speaks with a biological anthropology professor about his hypothesis that UFO's are piloted by human time travelers from our distant future.

Dr. Michael Masters is a professor of biological anthropology at Montana Tech in Butte, Montana. He received a PhD in Anthropology from The Ohio State University in 2009. His current research program centers on hominin evolutionary anatomy, human variation, archaeology, and biomedicine. In 2019, he published Identified Flying Objects: A Multidisciplinary Scientific Approach to the UFO Phenomenon, which examines the premise that ‘UFOs’ and ‘Aliens’ may be our human descendants, returning from the future to visit and study their own hominin evolutionary past. His second book, The ExtratempestrialModel, published in June 2022, analyzes well-documented cases of abduction and other contact modalities in the context of this time-travel model, and other theories put forth to elucidate this complex and mysterious phenomenon.
