Beyond UFOs: The Science of Consciousness & Contact with Non Human Intelligence
by Reinerio Hernandez 2018

About the Author
Reinerio (Rey) Hernandez graduated with honors from Rutgers College, was a Master’s Candidate at Cornell University, and was a Ph.D. Candidate at the University of California at Berkeley where he was the recipient of a National Science Foundation Ph.D. Fellowship. He previously was a professor for six years at the New School for Social Research and at the City University of New York.

Previous to March 2012, Rey had zero interest in the topic of Consciousness or any of the so-called paranormal Contact Modalities. On March 4, 2012, Rey and his wife witnessed a miraculous medical healing of their paralyzed dog, whom they were going to euthanize that same day, by an Energy Being that appeared in their living room. After this initial experience, over the next 3 years, Rey began to have diverse paranormal contact experiences via what he coined “The Contact Modalities” (NDEs, OBEs, UFOs, Ghosts/Spirits, Remote Viewing, Channeling, etc.)

Rey Hernandez is currently the Director of the Consciousness and Contact Research Institute, or CCRI, a 501c3 academic research institute comprised of more than 25 Ph.D. academics, medical doctors, and researchers whose mission is to explore a new paradigm that seeks to integrate the findings of consciousness research and the phenomenology of extraordinary experiences, what the CCRI calls the Contact Modalities, a term that he coined in 2013.

Rey was previously one of the 4 co-founders of The Dr. Edgar Mitchell FREE Foundation, an academic research foundation comprised of 12 Ph.D. academics and lay researchers, who during a 5-year period, conducted the world’s first and only comprehensive academic statistical multi-language research study on UFO contact experiencers. Much of FREE’s research data, based on responses from over 4,300 UFO contact experiencers from over 100 countries, contradicts much of what is circulating in mainstream materialist Ufology. Rey was one of the 3 co-editors of the historic 820-page academic book titled “BEYOND UFOS: The Science of Consciousness and Contact with Non-Human Intelligence.” Nevertheless, Ufology has ignored the data findings from this 5-year academic research study because the findings totally contradict what has been circulating in mainstream materialist Ufology over the last 80 years.

About the Book
This 820 page book details the academic research findings of the world’s first comprehensive multi-language quantitative and qualitative 5 year academic research study on individuals that have had UFO related contact with Non Human Intelligence (NHI)– The FREE Experiencer Research Study. Over the last 5 years FREE has collected detailed responses to 3 extensive quantitative and qualitative surveys from over 4,200 individuals from over 100 countries. Our survey findings from these thousands of “Experiencers” contradict much of what is circulating in mainstream materialist Ufology. Our academic book will establish a new paradigm for viewing the UAP (UFO) Contact Phenomenon. FREE argues that “Consciousness” and the paranormal and psychic aspects of this phenomenon is the key to understanding this complex phenomenon instead of the traditional materialist perspective of “nuts & bolt’s” Ufology. The Dr. Edgar Mitchell Foundation for Research into Extraterrestrial and Extraordinary Experiences, or FREE, is a 501c3 Academic Research Not for Profit Foundation. FREE was co-founded by the late Apollo 14 astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell, Dr. Rudy Schild, an Emeritus Research Astronomer at the Harvard/Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics at Harvard University, Australian researcher Mary Rodwell and Rey Hernandez, an Attorney and Experiencer who was a Ph.D. Candidate at the University of California at Berkeley. FREE is comprised of retired academic professors and lay researchers who have been researching the field of Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon (UAP) and contact with Non-Human Intelligence (NHI) for more than 30 years. The Executive Director of FREE is Harvard Astrophysicist Dr. Rudy Schild.
