Synopsis: From the Back Cover of the DAW Books First Edition: The aliens are among us - or are we among them?
The quest for and contact with other intelligent life in the universe is one of the basic themes of science fiction. Over the years and through the imaginations of writers, filmmakers, and artists we have met aliens who ran the gamut from peaceful to devastatingly destructive, from humanoid to monstrous.
Now, on the fiftieth anniversary of Roswell, some of science fiction's most creative tale-tellers share with us their own visions of alien encounters.
From a simulated invasion that's a little too "real" for comfort... to a look at just what the military has been hiding from us all these decades... to a diplomatic and scientific expedition to a planet with a secret humans were never meant to uncover... to an ancient Egyptian's brush with a being from an interstellar empire... there are all original stories of those fateful moments which could well prove turning points of our future, those unforgettable meetings known as First Contact.
