Howard Menger (1922–2009) was an American contactee known for claiming encounters with extraterrestrials. He gained prominence in the late 1950s, describing interactions with Venusian 'space brothers' in his books, including 'From Outer Space To You.' Menger later revised his views, suggesting these beings did not originate from Venus but may have had bases there. He expressed concerns about being misled by malevolent extraterrestrials and shared religious insights from his experiences. His first alleged contact occurred at age ten in New Jersey, influencing his lifelong commitment to the UFO belief system.
