I've spent a lot of time researching the subject and government deception. So to be involved in Star Trek is perfect for me. I enjoy meeting the fans and discussing my interests with them.
Governments are moved by numbers, and the greater the number of people who admit that they believe, the greater the likelihood that the secret - if there is one being kept - will be revealed.
The Roswell incident, for instance, had over three hundred witnesses - some describing the bodies, some the craft, some the military procedures. Were they all perpetuating their own lives in a myth?
This kind of speculation is healthy. It's like H.G. Wells - if you go back and look at his work, he is remarkably accurate in everything he predicted.
This is a scientist, but he wasn't making an inquiry. This was an attempt to debunk. But why debunk something that is so patently stupid?
I wasn't onstage projecting to the back row. I was acting for the lens, which was right in front of me. I learnt a lot from that job.
The atom was unleashed in 1946, right when all this stuff was occurring. And the bomb's incredible release of energy and light may have signalled somebody in a dimension which is sharing space with us very closely.
It sort of filtered into their subconscious through motion pictures, but it's an historical secret. This - whatever this is - needs to be studied and, in a kind of definitive way, talked about.
It could be that people just want to be connected to something that's bigger than they are that can't be proven. I don't know, I don't think that's it.
If they're traveling at the speed of light, their month is perhaps the equivalent of twenty of our years. So they're just buzzing around having a good old time, continuously looking.
Being closer to the genesis of this whole period, it captured the importance of the concept of making contact and accurately depicted the paranoia of the time. It's an excellent film.
It's a fascinating area for me, UFOs have occupied a great part of my life since I was very young.
I find that easier to accept than this all happened out of nothing.
Today's particle physics describe light as a crumple in space, and we may have deformed space in such a way that they noticed something peculiar - and they had the ability to investigate it.
