An amazing alien encounter 7 years before Roswell may offer our best chance yet to understand where some UFO's come from and why they are visiting our planet.
For more than two decades, Udo Wartena, a Dutch immigrant living in the Western U.S., kept what had happened to him one spring morning in May 1940 a secret, not even telling his wife. Before dying in 1989 he finally confided in two friends and then wrote the details of his experience down so it would not be lost.
Udo's incredible story remained completely unknown in UFO circles however, until the details were finally released by Australian researcher Warren Aston in the Australian International UFO Symposium, 1997.
We must remember that this is an unusually early case in the pre 1947 period, which has yielded only small numbers of UFO sightings worldwide, and almost no cases where the occupants of UFOs were reported.
Let us remember that in 1940, World War II still raged in Europe, the first satellite was still 17 years in the future and the sound barrier had not yet been broken.
