Dr. Steven M. Greer is an American ufologist and retired physician known for his work in the field of UFO research and advocacy for the declassification of allegedly suppressed UFO information. Born on June 28, 1955, Greer is a prominent figure in the UFO community, noted for founding the Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence (CSETI) and The Disclosure Project.
Greer’s interest in UFOs and extraterrestrial intelligence led him to establish CSETI in 1990, an organization dedicated to the research on UFOs and extraterrestrial life. CSETI’s goal is to establish peaceful and sustainable relations with extraterrestrial beings. The organization conducts expeditions and trainings for individuals to make contact with extraterrestrial entities through specific protocols developed by Greer.
In 2001, Greer founded The Disclosure Project, which aims to publicly disclose information about UFOs, extraterrestrial intelligence, and advanced energy and propulsion systems that Greer claims are being suppressed by governments and corporations. The Disclosure Project is known for its National Press Club conference in May 2001, where Greer presented over 20 individuals, including former military and government employees, who testified about their experiences and knowledge of UFOs and alleged government cover-ups.
Greer’s approach to UFOlogy involves a combination of advocacy, activism, and controversial claims. He has authored several books and produced documentaries on the subject, presenting his views and findings on UFO phenomena and advocating for transparency and open public engagement on the topic.
