This billionaire is convinced that non-human intelligent life exists among us and that such entities may exist in other dimensions. He claims that G-LOC makes our consciousness leave the body, allowing us to see beyond the room while being outside the body.
Robert Bigelow has long been fascinated by supernatural phenomena and has invested millions in researching the mystery behind consciousness, UAPs, and extraterrestrials. He is well-known in the space industry. His company makes special inflatable space modules. Some of these modules have been tested on the International Space Station.
He believes that aliens are already here on Earth. In an interview with CBS in 2017, he said he was “absolutely convinced” of their presence. He explained that there has always been an extraterrestrial (ET) presence among humans. He also said he had spent millions of dollars researching this topic. According to him, people don’t need to travel far to find aliens because they are already here. However, when asked for details about his own experiences, he refused to share them.
Bigelow had already been funding various individual UFO researchers, but in 1995, he decided to set up his own research organization, the National Institute for Discovery Science (NIDS). He invited several luminaries of UFO research to participate, including Hal Puthoff, Jacques Vallée, and John Mack. Not simply a UFO organization, NIDS also probed the question of whether there is life after death. Its hotline (and later website) would take your reports of mysterious black flying triangles, but it also solicited reports of cattle mutilations and visits from “entities”—essentially ghosts.
In 1996, NIDS started investigating Skinwalker Ranch. This was a cattle ranch owned by the Sherman family, who had reported strange events like UFO sightings, animals being mysteriously harmed, and visits from unknown beings. Bigelow found these stories interesting, so he bought the ranch and set up a team of researchers to study it.
For the first year, nothing unusual happened. However, later reports suggested that something strange did occur, which caught the attention of a U.S. senator named Harry Reid.
Senator Reid had been interested in UFOs for a long time. A journalist told him about NIDS, and since Reid already knew Bigelow, he got involved. Reid even attended an NIDS meeting where experts discussed UFOs and other unexplained events. He became very interested in the topic.
Over the years, Reid continued to follow UFO research, even though his staff thought it might make him look bad. In 2007, Bigelow introduced Reid to James Lacatski, a scientist working for the U.S. government. Lacatski had read a book called Hunt for the Skinwalker, which described strange things happening at the ranch, like UFOs, ghostly lights, and mysterious creatures. He was so fascinated that he shared the book with others in the government.
Lacatski visited Skinwalker Ranch himself. During one visit, he claimed to have seen something floating in the kitchen—an object that looked like the cover of a music album called Tubular Bells. After this experience, he became convinced that the strange events at the ranch needed further investigation.
However, Lacatski knew that the Pentagon would not officially support an investigation into something like a haunted ranch. So, he and some of his colleagues created a secret program called the Advanced Aerospace Weapons Systems Application Program (AAWSAP) to study these unusual events without drawing attention.
Bigelow, who was also involved in space technology, helped Lacatski connect with a U.S. senator named Harry Reid. Reid then brought in two other senators, Ted Stevens and Daniel Inouye. Together, they convinced the government to give them $22 million to fund the secret program. Publicly, the program was supposed to study new aerospace technology, but in reality, it was investigating UFOs and supernatural events.
The program was designed to look like a regular research project about flight technology and energy. Nowhere in the public documents did it mention UFOs or paranormal activity, except for a vague reference to “human effects.” In truth, the project was set up to study UFOs and unexplained events at a place called Skinwalker Ranch, which was known for strange occurrences.
Only one organization applied to be part of this program—Bigelow’s own company, BAASS (Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies). His company replaced a previous group, NIDS, and openly stated that they would research UFOs. They conducted investigations both at their headquarters in Las Vegas and at Skinwalker Ranch.
Some of the government money was also given to the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), a group that collects reports of UFO sightings. The money was used to improve MUFON’s database and investigations. BAASS also built its own database for UFO research and spent time studying supernatural activity at Skinwalker Ranch. In addition to investigating events at the ranch, they looked into other UFO cases, including the famous 2004 “Tic Tac” UFO incident, where a Navy pilot recorded a mysterious flying object off the coast of California.
In his interview with Bigelow, award-winning journalist George Knapp asked if the entities at Skinwalker Ranch would be investigated through the Bigelow Institute for Consciousness Studies (which he founded in 2020 after his wife passed away). Besides, he wondered that if they are among us, can they also be considered alien? Bigelow said: “Well, if you if you follow the literature and pay attention to a lot of other kinds of sources, they absolutely are.”

Further, Bigelow shared his personal experiences and losses that prompted his interest in life after death, as well as UFOs. He talked about possible links between consciousness research and UFOs. He also talked about the risks of trying to establish communications with the unknown.
“That’s been mainly what I’ve been doing except for the skinwalker ranch thing for 20 years as the space world has been huge in my life to pursue the legitimate parochial kind of you know using fire engines rockets to get you there. We didn’t expect anything like this to happen and so there this is different. This is the holy grail and is different than the second holy grail. If the second one is ‘Beings’ (E.T.), then the first one: Is there any part of your consciousness that survives your bodily death? That’s a big deal. That’s a huge story. That’s gigantic.”
“Be a little careful about what you wish for. So on the face of it, communication sounds great and that by the way has been tried forever ever since the oracle of Delphi. I mean you can go back thousands of years and that’s been attempted. So It’s not now you know the last 100 years through electronics and using some kind of electrical apparatus to try to have some kind of communications. And you know communication can be at all different kinds of levels. There might be communication that just causes you an awareness.”
Interdimensional Forces!
Knapp asked Bigelow what triggered his curiosity about UFOs, possibly it was after Bob Lazar’s story came out. Mr. Bigelow replied that he was already into UFO research. He was looking at UFO stories worldwide to understand what they actually were.
In 1992, he started the Bigelow Foundation with Bob Lazar, who worked on reverse-engineering recovered extraterrestrial craft at Area-51. Bigelow also backed Dr. John E. Mack, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard who wrote two popular books about his work with people who told him they had been abducted by aliens, and Budd Hopkins, an artist who became an abduction investigator and also wrote popular books.
Mr. Bigelow’s investigative team, headed by Colm Kelleher, the institute’s scientific administrator and biochemist, documented their own paranormal events, according to a 2005 book “Hunt for the Skinwalker,” by Dr. Kelleher and Mr. Knapp.
Mr. Bigelow said he saw “interdimensional” forces at play through portals at certain paranormal hot spots like Skinwalker. But he also said he had frequently visited the ranch without experiencing the kind of chilling events others reported, as if some intelligence were selecting the people to act upon. “I slept like a log every single night,” he said. And no human was physically harmed, but he said he and other visitors often carried strange things home, like a sulfurous stink in a certain part of his house. His wife felt the presence of a faceless creature pressing down on her side of bed.
Bigelow amassed his fortune through the hotel chain Budget Suites of America and used this money to fund his UFO study. In an interview with The Associated Press, he said that UFOs are “under our noses” and wondered why news organizations had not extensively covered UFO sightings.
Some people believe that aliens could be living here as hybrids or in a way that makes them look like normal humans. Others believe that aliens have only sent technology, such as spacecraft, to Earth.
When George Knapp asked Bigelow about his comment on the 2017 interview, he said:
“There are different ways to go at this. So one is from a hardware standpoint. The other one is from the presence standpoint, ET presence. And, you know, a lot of people say, well, whether they’re, you know, that they can be among the population, whether they’re hybrids, or there’s some other kind of, really look alike, you know, kind of thing. But so, so you can look at it in different kinds of ways. And, and so, I know of a really good high quality researcher who has fantastic academic credentials and background. And he would be predisposed to the latter, saying that, yeah, it could be among us, you know, but he’s probably on the more extreme, he’s definitely on the more extreme. Others would say, well, we’re safe in saying that there’s hardware, you know, so that’s among us, and hardware kind of context.”
In this interview, Bigelow talks about out-of-body experiences. These are situations where a person feels like they have left their physical body and can see and hear things from a different point of view. He learned about this from an Air Force general who had one of these experiences during a special type of training.
Just mind-blowing! Billionaire claims that G-LOC makes our consciousness leave the body, allowing us to see beyond the room while being outside the body. We can witness our own body and even pass through walls. An experiment proved it

The training involved using a machine that spins very fast, creating a strong force called G-force. This force can make a person pass out. The general said that during one of these training sessions, after doing it twelve times, he suddenly found himself floating outside his body. He could see himself walking and even hear conversations in other rooms that he should not have been able to hear.
As the experience continued, he moved down a hallway and into his office. He passed through walls and watched himself from above. The experience ended when his physical body sat in a chair, and at that moment, his consciousness returned to his body. This was not a near-death experience but something caused by the training.
“A related event occurs to modern fighter pilots when they experience intense G forces during extreme combat maneuvers. It has been reported that pilots will lose consciousness during maximum G forces and undergo a brief out-of-body state of consciousness. The U.S. military has conducted extensive research into this potentially dangerous phenomenon and has officially named the experience “G-LOC.” The popular television show Sightings did an entire segment on G-LOC-induced OBEs that was titled “Simulated Out-of-Body Experiences.” Several U.S. military pilots participated in an experiment where G-LOC was created in a NASA centrifuge. Each interviewed pilot reported that he had passed out and then described a detailed out-of-body state of consciousness.”
