Jacques Vallee thoughts about the nature of the UFO phenomenon in the early 90s.
Jacques Fabrice Vallée (born September 24, 1939, Pontoise, Val-d'Oise ) is a French-born venture capitalist, computer scientist, author, ufologist and former astronomer.

In mainstream science, Vallée is notable for co-developing the first computerized mapping of Mars for NASA and for his work at SRI International in creating ARPANET, a precursor to the modern Internet. Vallée is also an important figure in the study of unidentified flying objects (UFOs), first noted for a defense of the scientific legitimacy of the extraterrestrial hypothesis and later for promoting the Interdimensional hypothesis.

Along with his mentor, astronomer J. Allen Hynek, Vallée carefully studied the phenomenon of UFOs for many years and served as the real-life model for the character portrayed by François Truffaut in Steven Spielberg's film Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
