Publisher's summary

"From the craters of the moon, the jungle-ridden cities of prehistory, the world's scattered Pygmy tribes, and the columns of yesterday's newspaper comes new and thought-provoking evidence for the existence of space life." Such were the words on the original dust jacket of The Expanding Case for the UFO.

First released in 1957, The Expanding Case was the sequel to perhaps the most notorious book in ufological history: The Case for the UFO, which drew the interest of the U.S. Navy and resulted in the famous annotated "Varo Edition".

The annotator of the book, Carlos Allende, claimed to have been a witness to the Philadelphia Experiment. Allende seemed to think that the book's author, astronomer M.K. Jessup, knew more about the experiment than he was admitting, and had maybe played a role in it.

The Expanding Case for the UFO was the last book ever written by M.K. Jessup, and it ties together many of the controversial threads first exposed in The Case for the UFO.

As evidence to how dangerous this material was at the time, it was only two years later that Jessup - after experiencing threatening phone calls and alarming synchronicities "too unbelievable to describe" - would be found dead in a park in Dade County, Florida - supposedly a "suicide."

While Allende claimed Jessup killed the hitman sent to terminate him, and was able to escape by trading identities with the hitman, the facts remain obscured - like the UFOs themselves - in a most intriguing fog.

"The Expanding Case for the UFO" by M.K. Jessup is

"The Expanding Case for the UFO" by M.K. Jessup is a fascinating and controversial book that explores the possibility of extraterrestrial life. Published in 1957, it was Jessup's last book on the subject, and it built upon the ideas he presented in his earlier work, "The Case for the UFO."

In "The Expanding Case for the UFO," Jessup examines a range of evidence, including ancient artifacts, astronomical observations, and eyewitness accounts, to support his claim that Earth has been visited by extraterrestrial beings for centuries. He also argues that these beings may be responsible for some of the most puzzling mysteries of our time, such as the disappearance of Amelia Earhart and the construction of the ancient pyramids.

Jessup's book is a classic of UFO literature, and it continues to be relevant today. It is a well-written and thought-provoking work that will appeal to anyone interested in the paranormal, the supernatural, and the unknown.
