Summary

Dr. Diana Walsh Pasulka is a professor of religious studies who shifted her research focus to UFO encounters in 2012. During her studies, she compared modern UFO reports to historical Catholic ascent narratives. She discussed her experiences at the Vatican, where she investigated cases of levitation linked to religious figures. Pasulka noted similarities between these historical accounts and contemporary UFO experiences, including a dart-like instrument described by both a saint and modern abductees. Her findings led to a significant change in her understanding of these phenomena, prompting her to explore the intersection of UFOs, technology, and religious experience. The encounter has deeply impacted her worldview and academic work, leading her to publish two books on the subject.
