Fabio Zerpa arrived in Argentina in 1951, and was already interested in extraterrestrial life and had already studied psychology. After some years of investigation, he started to give his first conferences at the beginning of the 1960s. In 1966 he created the radio program Más allá de la cuarta dimensión (Beyond the Fourth Dimension). Since then, Fabio Zerpa has reported on more than 3000 cases of UFO sightings and contact with extraterrestrials. Since 2001 he has been the director of the on-line magazine El Quinto Hombre (The Fifth Man). In December 2005 Zerpa was named cultural ambassador of the city of Colonia in his native country.
