Welcome to THE GRALIEN REPORT, your source for the latest maverick science and strange news regarding he unexplained from around the globe.
It can be difficult knowing where one will find answers to the mysterious and unusual. Sometimes we may draw inspiration from a story we see on the news; for some, mysteries may literally come find them, like a christmas hamper or other gift arriving at your doorstep; still others begin their journeys based on little more than some whispered nuance or clandestine idea. Regardless, through scientific inquiry and careful reasoning, the answers to life’s questions are out there, despite what circumstances may lead us to them.
Bio information: Since an early age, Micah Hanks has held a long fascination with the more unique scientific mysteries this world has to offer. A self proclaimed (but not self-righteous) skeptic, Micah works as a writer and radio personality in search of answers to life’s enduring mysteries. He has contributed articles and stories regarding strange phenomenon, scientific discoveries and political topics to magazines like FATE Magazine, Fortean Times, Mysteries Magazine, UFO Magazine, TCS Daily, The Journal of Anomalous Sciences, Intrepid Magazine, New Dawn, and several others. In 2010, his research regarding altered states of consciousness, psychedelic drugs and the prevalence of similarities between archetypal folklore from around the world culminated in the book Magic, Mysticism and the Molecule: The Search For Sentient Intelligence from Other Worlds. Additionally, he was a featured contributor to several anthologies in the Exposed, Uncovered and Declassified series, released by New Page Books in 2011. Hanks has also appeared on numerous television and radio programs, including Travel Channel’s Weird Travels program, National Geographic’s Paranatural, the History Channel’s Guts and Bolts, CNN Radio, The Jeff Rense Program, and a variety of other shows and podcasts.
“Our world is a place full of enduring mysteries,” Hanks says, “but with time–whether or not it is within my own lifetime–I do predict they will all begin to overlap with our scientific understanding of the cosmos. In some instances, these sorts of revelations may be ruled out as misconceptions or outright hoaxes… but for the time being, it is my hope to share many of these fascinating subjects with you here at the GRALIEN REPORT, and allow you to draw your own conclusions.”
