Filippo Sarpa, graduated in Translation from the University of Turin with full marks and honours, is a professor of Foreign Languages ​​and Literature, independent researcher, author, translator, conference organizer and presenter.

Sarpa does not define himself as a UFO researcher in the strict sense as a "curious explorer of the unknown" who finds himself involved - often not on his own initiative - in investigations of various kinds aimed at both the so-called external and internal worlds.

To date, his most substantial contribution to ufology and alternative historiography consists in the realization of a double second level degree thesis discussed at the University of Turin in 2017. As part of an ambitious academic research project that included research on field in Peru, Bolivia, Chile (Easter Island) and the United States, Sarpa examined the extra-terrestrial hypothesis as an anthropological-cultural phenomenon in its two main diachronic dimensions: the alleged contacts in the past (commonly known as the "theory of the ancients astronauts ") and, in the present, for about sixty years now, the even more controversial question of the so-called" contacted ".
Sarpa's field investigations across the United States and South America have been highly appreciated both in Italy and abroad and have earned him the invitation to present his work at international UFO-themed congresses together with guests of global importance.
In 2018 his thesis was published in Italy with the title Ancient astronauts in South America. Traces of contacts in the past (vv. 1-2, 2018, xPublishing), with the preface by the well-known writer Mauro Biglino.
Sarpa is also the official translator into Italian of Unacknowledged, Verità Negate (2018, Amrita Edizioni) the best-selling investigation by the American ufologist Steven M. Greer, and of Contatto dal Pianeta Apu (2018, xPublishing), of the Peruvian experiencer Ricardo González. (2016).
Since 2017, in Italy, Filippo is organizer and speaker and interpreter at conferences and seminars with international guests.
In 2020 he was chairman of the prestigious UFO International Congress in Florence of the GAUS group, presenting and conducting the event in its entirety in three languages: Italian, English and Spanish.

Rob Freeman and Mark McNabb, Canadian producer and director, began their journey to discover the UFO mystery a few years ago and yet they have already visited - at their expense - over 15 countries in the world. Their UFO World Explorer was born in 2015 in Toronto with the ambition to investigate the phenomenon across the globe with the classic tools of the trade and in the so-called best-known hotspots in the sector, but with new interesting premises and promises: no more high-sounding declamations of to open up horizons to the sidereal unknown as well as kind and punctual invitations to recognize and narrate dimensions so close to us, so patent - perhaps the most unconsciously coveted ones - that they have remained hidden in plain sight.
Like any mystery seeker who hears and welcomes the call within himself, we initially rely on a wide angle on the UFO universe in its countless expressions and manifestations: from civil and military sighting to contactee, from an archeology of eras and civilizations. lost up to the links with the occult meanders of the human psyche. As provincial tourists on the panoramic bus of an overseas metropolis, we are happy to be enchanted by the fullness with which extra-ordinary stimuli envelop and tickle our senses in the first and ephemeral moments of the experience.
Progressively, the stroboscopic frenzy of the merry-go-round gives way to more and more circumstantial medium fields: the noise fades, the enchantment of the bright colors melts to reveal unexpected close-ups, hidden angles on which the eye of most, conditioned by decades of UFO salons and the entertainment industry to astonishing macroscopic figures, rarely manages to settle. But those who practice the art of identifying galaxies in a grain of dust know very well what exquisite gifts they can bestow knowing how to reverse their focus: only when the observer calms his vain cerebral obsession with knowledge and indulges in contemplation does he then come to the awareness that its target does not cages a damn thing, that the size of the gun does matter up to a certain point. And it is precisely at that point that he himself discovers light, lens and film. He no longer tries to grasp the ineffable but recognizes himself in it in the sweetest of surrenders.
Seventy years of science and pseudoscience, of possibilist approaches, of a priori closure, of censorship, of deceit, of half-truths; seventy years of passion, of alignments, of conflicts, of warnings, of messianic messages, of debunking, of ancestral desires to go beyond the wall of physical perceptions, of the body and of human knowledge dissolve and coagulate in new meanings.
In this wandering among mountains, lakes, forests and rocks in every corner of the globe, one cannot but take note of being only supporting actors - never directors - in a scenography populated by intelligence and technological variations in incalculable quantity and quality.
But the paradox is, by definition, almost always hilarious: for every Venusian, reptilian or gray, for every probe, disk or mothership, for every fifth type contact, abduction or government cover up that ends up under the knife of our eager inquisitions. , the more we try to enlarge the detail in search of objective validations or denials, the more we will be led to see nothing but our reflection.
And being able to tell the odyssey will have been the most magical of adventures.
