In the 1970s, New York artist and UFO investigator Budd Hopkins began to specialize in abduction research after being confronted by multiple reports. He wrote about his research in the 1981 book \u201cMissing Time\u201d and it wasn\u2019t long after the book was published that people started to be featured in the press and on television with claims of their own abduction experiences. In an\xa0interview for the PBS series \u201cNova,\u201d Hopkins stated that his \u201cbest case\u201d was one that involved witnesses who claimed to have seen a woman accompanied by three small humanoids float out of a 12th story apartment in Manhattan and into a waiting craft close to the Brooklyn Bridge.
