Jeff Peckman, who wants to create an Extraterrestrial Affairs Commission in Denver to prepare the city for alien close encounters, had his own interesting encounter Tuesday night — with David Letterman in New York.
Peckman, 54, has gained renown by discussing a video that shows what he says is an extraterrestrial's head looking into a window at night. Peckman has said the alien is about 4 feet tall and can be seen blinking.
On the "Late Show with David Letterman" on Tuesday, Peckman told Letterman that there have been at least 4,000 trace landings, where UFOs landed and left traces that they were there. Peckman also said the government has been covering up encounters for 60 years and that people would know about clean-energy technologies if that wasn't the case.
Peckman said there lately has been an "avalanche of media coverage because ... it seems the media is jumping on board and saying 'let it happen.' "
Letterman told Peckman that he "would like to see (an alien). It would be fun, wouldn't it?" In response, Peckman asked Letterman that if aliens did visit and there was an earthly delegation, would he be willing to be part of that delegation?
Letterman's response: "I kinda got my hands full with T-ball this summer."

Mr. Peckman wishes to gain the favor of a famous celebrity by inviting him to join an alien greeting delegation. That's a pedestrian con-job ploy.
As David Hannum said long ago, "There's one born every minute."
We can't evaluate this video until we pay for the documentary. That is a classic hoax/freak show marketing ploy- Don't let look until after you've gotten their money." -Jim McDade
