Following the passing of Pope Francis, UFO activists are demanding the Vatican open its secret archives, rumored to contain evidence of extraterrestrial encounters historically interpreted as divine events. Scholars like Diana Walsh Pasulka, a religious studies professor, argue that centuries-old records describe phenomena eerily similar to modern UFO sightings.
Mysteries in the Archives
Pasulka’s research, detailed in her book American Cosmic, reveals accounts from 1300–1800 of “orbs of light, luminous beings, and disc-like aerial objects” in Church documents. “The historical record is filled with these events,” she notes, suggesting the Vatican may unknowingly possess proof of otherworldly visits.

Sister Maria’s “Astral Journeys”
One striking case involves 17th-century Spanish nun Sister Maria of Ágreda, who claimed to bilocate—appearing in New Mexico to teach Indigenous tribes while physically remaining in Spain. Missionaries confirmed tribes’ accounts of a “lady in blue,” matching Maria’s description. Pasulka theorizes such mystics might be “meta experiencers,” bridging spiritual and extraterrestrial phenomena.

Modern Claims and Historical Secrets
Pentagon whistleblower David Grusch alleges the Vatican aided the U.S. in retrieving a crashed UFO from Fascist Italy in 1933. While unproven, his claims fuel speculation about the Church’s role in concealing alien contact.
Fatima: Miracle or UFO?
In 1917, tens of thousands in Fatima, Portugal, witnessed the “Miracle of the Sun,” where the sun appeared to spin and descend—a event some UFO researchers compare to mass alien encounters. Pasulka cautions against conflating religious awe with scientific scrutiny: “One cannot put an angel under a microscope.”

Conclusion
As the Vatican digitizes its archives, the world watches for clues linking celestial mysteries to extraterrestrial life. Whether evidence emerges or not, Pasulka’s work underscores humanity’s enduring quest to reconcile the divine with the unknown.
