From a skeptic to a believer: Meet Dr. J Allen Hynek, the broody character played by Aiden Gillen on 'Project Blue Book'
He came as a skeptic and left as a beliver, but not for once did he try to put the truth aside for the sheer fear of mass hysteria.
Just as some stories are stranger than fiction, some people are more fictitious than characters, and that could be said about the man, who Aidan Gillen plays in History Channel's upcoming sci-fi series, 'Project Blue Book'. Dr. J Allen Hynek, the man who spearheaded the project, holds the central place in the story which will gradually unfold the US Air Force's most controversial investigation. While America was held in the grip of fear over an alien invasion during the '50s, Hynek was the spotlight figure in the investigation, who began his journey as a skeptic but ended up as a believer.
So who is this man whom the world considered as "Mr. UFO"?
