Mike Bara spent 25 years in aerospace working on Boeing 757, 767, F-35, and classified military programs before co-authoring the New York Times bestseller Dark Mission: The Secret History of NASA with Richard C. Hoagland. A frequent Ancient Aliens contributor and author of seven books on suppressed space discoveries, Bara uses his aerospace engineering background to challenge official narratives about extraterrestrial artifacts and secret technology programs. Starting as a Boeing draftsman in 1979, he advanced through experience on compartmentalized black programs, giving him unique insight into defense contracting and classified operations. He connects Roswell, the JFK assassination, and current Congressional UFO hearings, arguing that anti-gravity technology has existed since the 1960s and ancient civilizations left engineering marvels across our solar system.
