2004 Roswell UFO Conference and Festival Jerry Pippin and his Production Assistant, Roberta Scott, attended the Roswell events this year and have recorded over 25 hours of interviews with speakers from the Ancient of Days Conference, the Roswell Museum Seminars and attendees of the annual Roswell UFO Festival. Roswell is America's UFO City, and Jerry and Roberta were making the rounds.
Was the object that crashed near Roswell a craft from outer space, a government test, or just "swamp gas?" No one knows for sure (no one who's talking anyway), but the mystery and the fun continue as thousands of people from all walks of life trek to Roswell to join in the festivities, and seek "The Truth." Continue to check this page in upcoming weeks as we add more recorded interviews and photos. Listen first to the introductory remarks recorded by Jerry as he spent the Fourth of July weekend in Roswell, helping celebrate their big UFO Festival.

Gene Frazier, the architect & designer of the project, has provided the following details about this spectacular project: In the 28 acre complex (Phase-One, within the city limits), to be known as 'Earth Station Roswell', You'll note that we are including a 400 seat "state-of-the-art" fully "house wired" Lecture Hall, as well as a 1000 seat combination Concert/Conference Hall, not to mention the Meeting/Banquet Rooms in the Mothership. Also,...there will be a 'Phenomena Exhibit Hall', which will feature permanent displays and exhibit areas pertaining to "all things extraterrestrial" (including ancient ones left behind), and the unexplained terrestrial ones, as well. Not only will we be able to offer a choice of lecture venues for the exciting and engaging presentations made by our guest speakers, but we will be producing vignettes, corners, and rooms, within the wandering exhibit hall, featuring the preeminent researchers of the genre, who have spent the best part of their lives on "the quest of their beliefs". Those who we have currently involved, include: Peter Davenport, Stephen Bassett, Dr. Steven Greer, David Flynn, Michael Heiser, William Henry, Robert Zubrin, Stephen Mehler, Paolo Harris, Jim Marrs, David Hatcher Childress, Richard Sauder, Linda Moulton Howe, Christopher Dunn,....and of course (our "Nuevo" native son of New Mexico) Richard C. Hoagland, not to mention John Tracy and the rest of the Australian MUFON Chapter, who volunteered to scour the planet for new artifacts to display in out Exhibit Hall. We plan to reach out to everyone, eventually. Of course, our program offers constant "book signing" schedules, and all books by the authors and researchers will be stocked and featured in our gift shops.
