The session focuses on recent discussions and disclosures concerning the possibility/plausibility/probability of humankind not being alone in the “here” and “now” on Earth and will be moderated by Dr. Richard Soare.

There will be an open call for participants from Friday, Nov. 8 to Wednesday Nov. 13. If you are keen to participate, please summarize your thoughts on the session subject in 50-75 words and drop a printed copy of them into a storage bin placed outside of Dr. Soare’s office (4D-22) during the solicitation period.
