<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>COL (USA Ret) and bestselling author Gene P Abel lays out the truth about UFOs and offers readers a fascinating exploration of the existence of an intelligent extraterrestrial race in this exploration of sightings and their potential impact on the future, and security, of the human race.<b> <p/>There are few events that would be of more importance, or more startling, than if, in the near future, we found ourselves confronted by another intelligent race with abilities and technology far superior to anything that currently exists on Earth. In <i>What, If Anything, Is Out There?</i> Gene P. Abel, COL (USA Ret.), details historic events that may well have been sightings by our ancestors and begins to explore what these encounters could mean for our security in the future. Drawing upon his years of military experience, Abel offers a unique insider's perspective as he guides readers through a thoughtful history into the Roswell incident of 1947 and beyond. <p/>In the wake of the Department of Defense acknowledgement that the US Navy has encountered UFOs, and in a moment where sightings are on the rise, What If Anything, Is Out There is a timely, and much-needed, look at the role of intelligent life in the universe.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>A report that asserts the existence of extraterrestrial activity in Earth's airspace.</p><p>Spurred by recent acknowledgments of numerous unidentified aircraft sightings by the U.S. Department of Defense, retired Army veteran Abel wrote this largely referential and thought-provoking text about his captivation with UFOs. He begins by drawing on various sources regarding the Roswell, New Mexico, incident in July 1947, in which debris from a downed aircraft was recovered by a military contingent. Sampling a number of published articles, books, and officially reported incidents, Abel writes with authority on various theories that, for decades, Earth has been repeatedly visited by alien life forms in advanced spacecraft. Chapters on subsequent UFO sightings from military and space-travel personnel chronicle incidents from the 1950s to the current century. The author shares these accounts with exacting detail, telling of the "nine-foot triangle" that witnesses said landed in a forest in eastern England and a wave of sightings at 80 locations across Belgium in 1989. He also notes the establishment of the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force in August 2020 and approvingly comments that the U.S. government now "seems to be more forthcoming with sensitive information."</p><p>In a concluding section, drawn wholly from Abel's own analysis and perspective as a military veteran, he issues cautionary assertions about future alien visitations, which he sees as inevitable, and the courses that the world should take if such theoretical encounters are benevolent or aggressive. Overall, Abel's direct and dutifully researched narrative will leave both believers and skeptics with much food for thought.</p><p>An engaging and sometimes chilling update on UFO-sighting controversies.</p><p><strong>-Kirkus Reviews</strong></p><br>
