And They Witness Light Across The Sky explores the cultural reasoning behind notions of belief relevant to the concept of extraterrestrial UFOs. From pop-culture to politics, from New-Age religions to folk tales, hoaxes, escapism and paranoia, much has contributed to the phenomenon of flying saucers, alien abductions and visitors from other worlds. This book explores diverse themes and events in an attempt to get to the root of such claims. From suicide cults, to fairy-tale myths, Nazi rocket technologies, to modern Egyptian-themed alien temples, it is a trip around many strange corners of culture and society.
