We’re over the moon to announce that JABberwocky author Myke Cole will be featured on Discovery Channel’s new series, Contact, in which a group of highly trained investigators strive to determine whether aliens have made contact on Earth.

Led by former CIA targeting officer Myke Cole and conflict analyst Dr. Michael Livingston, this series features six professionals looking to solve that mystery using a “radical, new and comprehensive approach by bringing together millions of data points, credible eye-witness accounts and declassified government reports.” Discovery says this is the “first ever global investigation to determine whether or not aliens have made contact here on Earth.”

Now is the perfect time for this show to take off. By using state-of-the-art technology paired with social media’s unique ability to connect and share stories across the globe, Myke and the other investigators will be able to gather intel and identify patterns like never before. With Myke heading the team, Contact is sure to be out of this world.

Contact premieres Wednesday, August 7, at 10 p.m. on Discovery Channel and again on Tuesday, August 13, at 9 p.m. on Science Channel. The show also will be available on the Discovery GO app.

Myke Cole’s first scifi novel, SIXTEENTH WATCH, publishes from Angry Robot in March 2020. Myke’s newest work of nonfiction, THE BRONZE LIE: SHATTERING THE MYTH OF THE SPARTAN WARRIOR SUPREMACY, is under contract with Osprey.
