The Birth of "International Ufology"

International Ufology is comparative in nature, focusing on contrasts and similarities of UFO, star people and E.T. references from different cultures. Rob Simone has traveled through 25 countries interviewing indigenous peoples and tribal elders about the unexplained and paranormal components of ancient civilizations and their historical links to major religions and belief systems.

In his lectures, Simone details research from Japan, China, Australia, the Middle East, Israel, India, Nepal, Turkey and Europe. The compelling aspects of Simone's research comes from the similarities of "sky beings" references in the creation stories, ancient art work and sacred texts of civilizations separated by thousands of years and thousands of miles.
