Hynek is a scientist with astronomical credentials and reputation. After working with the government and military studying and publicly debunking UFOs for so many years, he recants all his official work for an honest pursute - honest research into UFOs. This is his breakthrough contribution to the field, and a complete 180 on his official position, the book that made the scientific community stand up and take notice of UFOs.
Hynek's influential work propounds the notion that UFOs deserve proper scientific enquiry. He documents his landmark Close Encounter (CE) classification system (inspiring the title of Spielberg's "Close Encounters of the Third Kind"), and lays the foundation for scientific UFO investigation the world over for decades to come. He investigates and documents some of the most amazing cases of the time, some of which he'd publicly debunked under Project Blue Book, his official government research. He discusses the importance of witness credibility, and compares police officers to astronauts, pilots, scientists and engineers.
