Steven M. Greer (June 28, 1955) is an American physician, ufologist, and conspiracy theorist. Greer is the founder of the Disclosure Project, The Orion Project, and the Advanced Energy Research Organization (AERO) [1]. The latter aims to reproduce claimed free energy devices Greer says were produced in secret government projects by a branch of the Military Industrial Complex or MIC.

Greer's latest endeavor is the formation of The Orion Project (launched in March 2008), a non-profit, 501-C3 entity. The project's stated mission is to inform, educate, and help supply the people of earth with sustainable, non-polluting power.[2] The Orion Project claims to be in the process of identifying and supporting the development of new, clean energy technologies[3].

Greer has appeared on shows such as Larry King Live,[4] CBS, BBC, NTV in Japan, Sightings, Encounters, Coast to Coast AM[5], and the Armstrong Williams radio show. Greer hosts a regularly scheduled radio program (Conversations with Dr. Steven Greer) on the World Puja internet radio network, covering topics such as the development of non-fossil-fuel technologies, meditation and consciousness studies, and the evidence and implications of extraterrestrial contact.[6]

Greer is also a contactee, and coined the term "close encounter of the fifth kind" (a.k.a. CE5) to describe human initiated contact with extraterrestrials.[7] CE5 encounters are "characterized by mutual, bilateral communication rather than unilateral contact."[8]

Greer is frequently invited to give guest presentations and lectures related to the ET/UFO Disclosure effort and other issues, and has shared the podium with notable individuals such as former Canadian Defence Minister Hon. Paul Hellyer[9], Nick Cook, Brian O'Leary[10], and others.

Greer is a former chairman of the Department of Emergency Medicine at Caldwell Memorial Hospital in Lenoir, North Carolina, and a lifetime member of the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society.[11] He and his wife Emily have four daughters and reside in the Charlottesville, Virginia area. [11]

Commercial Activities: Ambassador to the Universe & Consciousness Trainings/Expeditions '

In addition to the Disclosure Project, Dr. Greer hosts 'Ambassador to the Universe' week long training sessions at various locations around the United States as part of the Greer founded CSETI organization [12]. Using meditation techniques Greer claims to teach methods that allow attendees to "remote view" locations and times (past and present) develop "cosmic consciousness" and supernatural abilities such as precognition [13]. Also, Greer claims to teach these trainees to "vector in" (i.e. an invitation to manifest their presence, using their newly acquired psychic abilities) extraterrestrials and their "space craft"[14]. Costs for this "training" presently being $995 for those that have not read Dr Greer's books or bought his videos [15].

Attendance requires certain student preparation, including buying and reading Dr Greer's Books [16]. Perhaps surprisingly from the instigator of the Disclosure Project all participants are required to sign a non disclosure/confidentiality agreement [17] As yet CSETI or Dr Greer has been unable to provide any evidence - either photographic or filmed - to support the success of this program [18]


The Disclosure Project and Advanced Energy Research Organization (AERO)

Main article: Disclosure Project

Greer's interest in ufology dates to childhood, when he claims he saw a 'disc-shaped craft'. In 1993, Greer founded the Disclosure Project, which claims a wide-ranging conspiracy by a shadowy government in the United States and other nations to cover up the visits by extraterrestrial vehicles and continued monitoring by these extraterrestrial beings, and to suppress unspecified extraterrestrial technologies, including free energy (see free energy suppression).

Greer, along with people from either a military or government background, has given numerous speeches and interviews at ufology conferences and other venues, attempting to muster support for 'free and open' Congressional hearings on UFOs, 'extraterrestrial visitation', and other aspects of the alleged conspiracy. The Disclosure Project has obtained support from various individuals within the so-called 'covert programs' who support Greer's views.

The Orion Project

The Orion Project is part of the free energy suppression movement and claims to be to developing non-polluting and cheap energy generators.[19] Funding for project Orion relies on public donations. As yet no evidence for its success have been produced.
