Gary Bekkum is an independent thinker, web author, and researcher of material that blurs the distinction between fiction and reality. He has been associated for a number of years on the web with controversial quantum physicist Dr. Jack Sarfatti and his on-line think-tank, the virtual resurrection of the original 1970's Physics of Consciousness Research Group (PCRG). Bekkum provided behind the scenes information to British author Nick Cook, the former aviation editor of Jane's Defence Weekly, for his book "The Hunt for Zero Point". Bekkum wrote a follow up to Nick Cook's book in the story "Dark Matters Surround Dark Energy" which appeared in the Russian on-line newspaper Pravda as "American military is pursuing new types of exotic weapons." Bekkum is an advocate of preparation for contact with advanced higher intelligence. He recently initiated Starstream Research, to survey exotic physics concepts and produce the "Spacetime Threat Assessment Report"
