This week we reveal the interplay between Hollywood’s UFO movies and the UFO phenomenon with Silver Screen Saucers author Robbie Graham.

Graham’s work is a close up examination of what shapes our perceptions of the UFO mystery and whether UFO stories are just fever dreams from LA screenwriters or sprung from something more tangible.

We also look at new research from Annie Jacobsen and the disturbing future of artificially intelligent weapons systems.
