It will be 66 years and three days since the first 'flying saucer' sighting. We have gathered a panel of UFO investigators and experts and asked them their ideas of the reality, meaning and significance of the UFO phenomena. Each will give a short presentation of their view of UFOs and then, after a trip to the bar, we open up the floor for a discussion on this perennially contentious issue.
The panel will include:
•Robert Moore: UFO co-ordinator for the Association for the Scientific Study of Anomalous Phenomena
•John Rimmer of Magonia Magazine and blog and author of The Evidence for Alien Abduction
•Matt Lyons: Chairman of the British UFO Research Association

All are welcome. come and listen in or join the debate about UFOs ideas.

 Each LFS evening begins with the Fortmanteau, our monthly summary of strange news stories


7.30pm for 8pm start.

  Time-Slips 26 November 2024 In the early years of the 20th century, two ladies visited the gardens of Versailles. Whilst there, they apparently slipped back in time to the late 18th century. They published a book describing their experience, which in later years was debunked as misperception and hallucination. Case closed. Or is it? There are a plethora of similar contemporary reports of apparent slips through time, from brief glimpses to full interactive experiences. Most reports describe features from the past, but a few describe possible slips forward in time. Dr Ann Winspe r has been researching people apparently travelling through time for the last 20 years. She describes some of these fascinating cases and looks at possible explanations, as well as how not all can be explained through misperception and psychology.
