The case of Eduard "Billy" Meier has gained worldwide attention for his claims of being in "on-going contact" with aliens from the star cluster known as the Pleiades. Purported to be the most documented UFO account of all time, Meier''s files consist of 1,000 photographs and 12 motion picture films of the visiting spacecraft.

In addition, he alleges that 40 independent eyewitnesses have also seen the alien ships and observed Meier''s contacts with them.
