This week Byron, Sam, and Kelly return from Contact in the Desert—the sprawling, sun-drenched gathering in Palm Springs where the leading minds (and hearts) in UAP research, consciousness studies, and high strangeness come together to explore the unknown.

 

Helmed by Captain Ron Janix and his team, this annual conference defies easy categorization: part symposium, part spiritual retreat, part carnival of the anomalous. But what stood out most in our first year there? The human connection—unexpected, unguarded, and deeply kind. Nearly every conversation was marked not by shouting or smug certainty, but by curiosity, generosity, and mutual respect.

Sam reflected on the profound kindness of strangers, finding a deeply human community in the heart of the weird. Kelly kept stumbling into conversations about faith, politics, fear, and hope—each one unfolding with rare grace. Byron, the perennial skeptic, did his best to stay open, but did his intentions win out over his involuntary production and journalistic instincts?
