May 9, 2004: Abduction Enigmas - Budd Hopkins
Podcast: The Art Bell ArchivePublished On: Mon Aug 18 2025
Description: Art Bell welcomes Budd Hopkins, the world's foremost UFO abduction researcher, to discuss his fourth book Sight Unseen. Hopkins presents his most provocative finding: that alien abductions routinely involve a technology of invisibility, allowing craft and abductees to remain unseen even in crowded urban environments from Tokyo to New York City. He details six cases establishing this as a recurring pattern across decades of investigation.Hopkins describes a 1948 case in Cincinnati where two children were found paralyzed at the base of a cellar stairway three stories below their bedroom without a mark on them, with no witnesses observing a fall or craft. He also recounts a woman at Chicago's O'Hare Airport whose hands failed to trigger sensor faucets and who appeared to materialize before startled friends after more than an hour of missing time.The discussion turns to the reproductive focus Hopkins considers central to the phenomenon, including the collection of genetic material for what he terms transgenic experimentation. He notes that alien medical procedures reported by abductees years ago, such as inserting a needle through the navel, only made sense once human science developed laparoscopy. Art and Hopkins examine how earthly invisibility research is narrowing the technological gap with alien capabilities.
