Third volume in the “Flying Saucers from Naziland” series by Maurizio Verga, this book is comprehensive account of one of most bizarre and persistent modern myths.
Drawing on forty-five years of independent research, primary sources never before available to English-speaking readers, personal correspondence, rare ephemera, and documentation painstakingly traced to its origins, the author reconstructs the entire genealogy of the Nazi UFO legend — from its obscure postwar beginnings to its spectacular present-day life in popular culture, conspiracy networks, and far-right ideology.

How did a handful of dubious press stories from the 1950s mutate into a fully developed mythology, complete with secret spacecrafts Vril and Haunebu, an occult “Vril Society” of female mediums channeling messages from Aldebaran, hidden bases in Antarctica, and an alternate cosmology fusing Third Reich nostalgia with New Age spirituality? Who were the real people behind the myth?

Five different  threads are developed across nine chapters:
– The bifurcation of the mythology into an esoteric-religious branch and a secular-technological branch
– The retroactive generation of fake documentation, drawings, dossiers, and “archives” manufactured decades after the war and presented as authentic
– The cross-pollination among a small network of authors who cited each other to create the illusion of independent corroboration
– The escalation from contained pseudo-historical claims to a totalizing cosmology connecting Nazi technology, ancient civilizations, and interstellar contact
– The unbroken thread of far-right ideological commitment running through the mythology from the 1950s to the present day
