Since I was a child, I have been interested in space, astronauts, rockets and space-related technologies. For the last 10 years I have been building miniature rockets myself. One area that I had not had time to delve into was UFOs and related research.

Luckily, an international UFO conference was held near me, in Espoo, and I went there with my friends to explore it. The conference was three days long, but as first-time attendees, we thought one day would be enough.

On Saturday, there were four really interesting presentations. The presentations lasted 90 minutes and then there was a 10–30 minute opportunity to ask questions and discuss the presentation.
The first presentation, given by Heikki Kulju, was about the 13-year exchange mission to the planet Serpo. In 1965, the United States sent 12 astronauts to the planet Serpo, which is located 38 light years away. The trip to Serpo took 10 months. The astronauts returned in 1978.

The second presentation was given by Giorgio Piacenza on the topic of the Nazca mummies of aliens found in Peru.

The third was given by Alan Foster on UFO sightings and the numerous strange patterns that have been cut into cornfields around the world. These patterns have not been found in the cornfields of Finland.

Finally, Gosia Duszak spoke about the different races of the galaxy that she has been in contact with. One interesting race is the lion people, who looked like lions who can stand. She also explained what the Galactic Federation is.

All the speakers were very skilled and did not hesitate to ask any questions. This seminar gave me a good overview of UFOs and the researchers and studies related to them.
