Description

The book takes readers on a compelling insider’s journey through the often-bewildering world of renowned UFO researchers and their debunkers, close interactions with media and government officials, celebrated astronauts, Native American medicine men, and many other fascinating people and ideas that he encountered along the way—along with a few flakes to be sure! From Close Encounters of the 5th Kind (human-initiated contact) in unusual locations, including the volcano zone in Mexico and on a South Dakota Indian reservation to high strangeness episodes in his very own home, Keller’s book is written just as much for those who know little about this perplexing subject.

<em>The Space Pen Club</em> is also an essential read for anyone interested in getting to the truth about one of the greatest mysteries and enigmas in our existence. Who owns these hyper-advanced off world aerodynamic platforms? Who controls their obviously intelligent non-human operators? And if these things are known to anyone, why can’t the technology be shared NOW? The mechanisms and fuel sources in these crafts could help save our planet and provide basic needs for millions – power, clean water and climate temperance.

—Dan Aykroyd, legendary Season 1 SNL cast member, producer and writer with a lifelong interest in all things paranormal

Martin Keller’s book combines an intriguing personal journey with a careful evaluation of the theories and personalities of the UFO world, striking a perfect balance between skepticism and open-mindedness. His adventures are described honestly and with a flair for detail. The author sifts through the evidence thoughtfully, moving past the clichés and conventional thinking about other-worldly visitors and exploring new scientific theories that involve quantum physics and human consciousness itself. Readers will have their preconceptions shaken, which is a good thing.

—John Thavis, bestselling New York Times author of The Vatican Diaries

I never told anyone what happened at dusk that night as my girlfriend and I cruised between cornfields on a small highway back to Minneapolis from Hutchinson, Minnesota. I did not want to hear disbelief, see the snicker forming on faces, or suffer the humiliation of telling my truth. I never told anyone that is until former music journalist Martin Keller shared his truth with me one afternoon over lunch and a little Prince gossip. Kudos to Keller for helping me come to grips with a series of events that happened to me so many years ago and for finally sharing his own story in this personal, page-turning epic called <em>The Space Pen Club</em>!

—Owen Husney, author of the memoir, Famous People Who've Met Me, and the man who discovered Prince

<em>The Space Pen Club</em> reads like a beautifully written novel, or a perplexing mystery to solve. Or simply as the true and often funny and sometimes frightening story of one man’s many attempts to find out the truth about UFO’s, UAP’s or ‘WYWTCT’s ‘Whatever You Want to Call Them.’ Martin Keller presents the facts and the facades of this strange world we live in with a no BS attitude and a smart analysis of what’s going on. And it’s packed with an unforgettable cast of characters that are sometimes almost as hard to fathom as the enigmatic behavior of “the boys upstairs” -Keller’s kooky shorthand for whoever, or whatever, is flying these many objects around our planet and scaring Elon Musk.
