The Cornwall UFO Research Group is flying in from the United States, Jason Martell, an expert on Ancient Technology the Extraterrestrial Connection for their conference on October 13 and 14.

"The history of the human race and the origins of where people come from can be traced back through efforts in archaeology and a careful study of our past," said one of the organisers. "Ancient man is not usually recognized as having achieved any magnificent feats in technology that would rival anything we have today. But in fact that is not the case. Many of the ancient sites and amazing artefacts still exist, show how ancient man harnessed technology."

Mr Martell will be presenting two lectures Ancient Technology and The NASA-Mars Cover-up while other speakers will also be present talking about UFOs and unexplained sitings.

The conference takes place in the new Fal Building at Truro College and will be ticket only, available both in advance and at the door.
