Colm Kelleher is an Irish-born biochemist whose research career was in cell and molecular biology. He worked on the research team of [Robert Bigelow](/people/robert-bigelow/)'s [National Institute for Discovery Science](/organizations/national-institute-for-discovery-science/) (NIDS), then as deputy administrator of the [Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies](/organizations/bigelow-aerospace-advanced-space-studies/) (BAASS) contract with the [Defense Intelligence Agency](/organizations/defense-intelligence-agency/) (DIA). He wrote Hunt for the Skinwalker (2005), which is catalogued under his name alone, and co-wrote Skinwalkers at the Pentagon (2021) with [James Lacatski](/people/james-lacatski/) and [George Knapp](/people/george-knapp/). He sat on the advisory board of [To The Stars Academy of Arts & Science](/organizations/to-the-stars-academy-of-arts-science/) from 2017 to 2019.

### Education and laboratory research

Kelleher's 2017 biography in the offering circular of To The Stars Academy of Arts & Science describes him as a biochemist with a twenty-eight-year research career in cell and molecular biology, and states that he holds a PhD in biochemistry from the University of Dublin, Trinity College.[^1] His author biography on Goodreads gives his birthplace as Dublin, Ireland, and dates his immunology work at the National Jewish Center for Immunology and Respiratory Medicine in Denver from 1991 to 1996.[^2]

The earliest papers under his name in PubMed are from the Ontario Cancer Institute in Toronto. A 1988 paper in Leukemia reports on the binding of iodinated recombinant human GM-CSF to the blast cells of acute myeloblastic leukemia, and a 1989 paper in Blood on how growth factors alter the sensitivity of leukemic stem cells to cytosine arabinoside lists the institute as his affiliation.[^3]

From the mid-1990s the PubMed record places him at the National Jewish Center in Denver. The papers from that period, most of them in Journal of Immunology, Virology and the Journal of General Virology through 2000, concern Epstein-Barr virus infection of human thymocytes and T cells. They include a 1995 study of viral replicative gene transcription during de novo infection and a 1996 study of novel transposon-containing mRNAs in human T cells.[^4] A 1999 paper in the Journal of Immunology reports that the Epstein-Barr protein ZEBRA inactivated NF-kappaB in human T cells, and a 2000 paper in Blood reports that the same protein activated p53-dependent transcription.[^5]

In 2016 a paper in Biology Direct on cell-free synthesized Rift Valley fever virus nucleoprotein capsids lists Colm A Kelleher with the affiliation Prosetta Antiviral Inc of San Francisco.[^6] The 2017 offering circular describes him as laboratory director at Prosetta Corporation, where he led small-molecule drug discovery programs on viruses of interest to the United States Department of Defense.[^1] The Goodreads biography dates the post to 2004 to 2008.[^2] The circular also states that he has authored more than forty peer reviewed articles and two books, Hunt for the Skinwalker and Brain Trust.[^1]

Brain Trust is catalogued by Open Library as *Brain Trust: The Hidden Connection Between Mad Cow and Misdiagnosed Alzheimer's Disease*, published in 2004 by Paraview Pocket Books and Simon and Schuster.[^7]

PubMed also lists two groups of papers under the same surname and initial. Papers from 1979 to 1987 on molybdenum and copper metabolism in sheep appear under the name C. A. Kelleher without an affiliation and are not attributed to him here.[^8] Papers from 2021 to 2026 on river temperature, headwater streams and stream water quality list Syracuse University affiliations for Christa A. Kelleher, a hydrologist, and are likewise not attributed to him.[^9]

### National Institute for Discovery Science

NIDS was the research body that Bigelow headed as president and founder. Its personnel page, as captured on December 6, 2000, lists Kelleher as "Deputy Administrator, Molecular Biology & Biochemistry," alongside John B. Alexander as "Discrete Project Scout," Eric W. Davis for aerospace physics and astrophysics, and George E. Onet for veterinary pathology.[^10] The capture of October 21, 2001 carries the same title for Kelleher, with Alexander, Davis, Marcel Kuijsten and Connie Fox-VanHorne also listed on the staff.[^11] The capture of February 6, 2003 still shows him as deputy administrator. The capture of February 4, 2004 lists him as "Administrator, Molecular Biology & Biochemistry" with Bruce Cornet as deputy administrator for geology, botany and earth history, Kuijsten as the only other staff member named, and Alexander moved to the science advisory board.[^12]

The science advisory board on these pages included [Edgar Mitchell](/people/edgar-mitchell/), [Hal Puthoff](/people/hal-puthoff/), [Jessica Utts](/people/jessica-utts/) and [Jacques Vallee](/people/jacques-vallee/); Puthoff is listed as chairman of the board in the 2001 and 2004 captures.[^11][^12]

The 2017 offering circular states that he "worked for eight years as Deputy Director of the National Institute for Discovery Science (NIDS), a research organization that used forensic science methodology to unravel scientific anomalies."[^1] The Micah Hanks Program, a podcast, describes him as having led the NIDS team on [Skinwalker Ranch](/places/skinwalker-ranch/) from 1996 to 2004, along with multiple other NIDS projects.[^13] The same description appears in his Goodreads biography.[^2]

On the night of March 12, 1997, after the ranch had been sold, Kelleher reported seeing a large humanoid creature watching the research team from a tree perch about 20 feet off the ground and about 50 yards away. He describes it in Hunt for the Skinwalker as "the large creature that lay motionless, almost casually, in the tree," its presence marked by "the penetrating yellow light of the unblinking eyes." After he fired a rifle at it the creature disappeared, and he found "a single, obvious oval track about six inches in diameter embedded deeply in the patch of snow."[^14]

### Hunt for the Skinwalker

The 2005 edition of Hunt for the Skinwalker, published by Paraview Pocket Books, is catalogued by Open Library under Kelleher's name alone.[^15] The copyright registration TX0006340176, dated April 27, 2006 with first publication on November 15, 2005, names Colm A. Kelleher and George Knapp as claimants.[^16] Knapp has described himself as a co-author of the book in his 2025 testimony, saying he is a co-author of two books written primarily by Lacatski and Kelleher.[^17] A 2017 audio edition from Dreamscape Media credits Kelleher, Knapp and David Bendena.[^15]

The book's preface describes it as "an account of a remarkable series of unexplained events that took place on a ranch in northeastern Utah and the unprecedented scientific study that followed."[^18]

The 2018 documentary listed on IMDb under the title Hunt for the Skinwalker, written and directed by [Jeremy Corbell](/people/jeremy-corbell/), gives a publication date of September 11, 2018. Its description says the film is based on the book by Knapp and Kelleher. The cast list includes Knapp, Corbell, Kelleher and Robert Bigelow.[^19]

### Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies and the AAWSAP contract

The Defense Intelligence Agency's solicitation HHM402-08-R-0211 for advanced aerospace weapon systems research was issued in August 2008. A notice printed from the Federal Business Opportunities site on September 8, 2008 names the work the Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program, with an original posting date of August 18, 2008 and a response date of September 5, 2008.[^20] A DIA talking paper prepared in May 2009 for the director, for a visit by Senator [Harry Reid](/people/harry-reid/), states that the request for proposals of August 18, 2008 asked for studies in twelve technical areas, among them lift, propulsion, control, armament, signature reduction, materials, power generation, human effects and technology integration, and that DIA received one bid, from BAASS.[^21]

The talking paper states that Senator [Daniel Inouye](/people/daniel-inouye/) and Reid sponsored language in the July 2008 supplemental appropriation for DIA to investigate foreign advanced aerospace weapon threats from the present out to 40 years in the future.[^21] A 2010 DIA information memorandum describes the same sponsorship as the "Fiscal Year (FY) 2008 Defense Supplemental Appropriation Act" with a $10 million add.[^22]

The award document (Standard Form 1449) in the Black Vault release under FOIA-00269-2018 gives the contract number as HHM402-08-C-0072 and the solicitation number as HHM402-08-R-0211. It lists Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies, LLC at 4640 S Eastern Ave, Las Vegas, as the contractor, an award date of September 22, 2008 and a total award amount of $21,948,810.00. The contract is firm fixed price, with a base year from September 22, 2008 to September 29, 2009 and an option year from September 22, 2009 to September 21, 2010; the BAASS proposal dated September 3, 2008 is incorporated by reference, and payment is made by the NSA Finance and Accounting Office.[^23] A DIA contract status briefing dated August 24, 2009 reports 26 detailed research reports received by June 30, 2009.[^24]

The 2010 memorandum states that BAASS produced 26 technical reports by June 2009, that all were delivered to DIA by September 2009, and that twelve further reports were produced after the FY2010 Defense Appropriations Act added $12 million to the project.[^22] It also records that Reid sent a letter to Deputy Secretary of Defense Lynn on June 24, 2009 asking for an alternate compensatory control measure or a sensitive access program for the project, and that DIA's review in November 2009 found insufficient grounds to classify the program, invoke an ACCM or establish a restricted SAP.[^22] The memorandum adds that at a November 2009 meeting with Reid, Lynn and the memorandum's author, DIA determined the reports to be "of limited value to DIA," and that the author suggested the project could transition to another agency or component once the DIA contract ended.[^22] One report, Advanced Space Propulsion Based on Vacuum (Spacetime Metric) Engineering, carries a March 2010 date on its cover.[^25]

The Black Vault's AAWSAP archive states that DIA released 37 of the 38 reports requested under FOIA-0159-2018 on March 25, 2022, and that the one withheld report, the classified version of a study on high-energy laser weapons, was appealed.[^26]

The 2017 circular states that from 2008 to 2011 Kelleher "served as Deputy Administrator of a United States Government funded threat assessment program focused on advanced aerospace technology," without naming the program, the contractor or the agency.[^1] The Micah Hanks Program's May 2023 episode description, reprinted by The Debrief, states that in 2008 he became deputy administrator of BAASS "where he led the day-to-day operations in executing the AAWSAP contract with Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA)."[^13] In written testimony to the [House Oversight Committee](/organizations/house-committee-on-oversight-and-government-reform/) Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets for its hearing of September 9, 2025, Knapp described Kelleher as the principal manager of AAWSAP in Las Vegas, said that Kelleher worked for Bigelow, and said that BAASS was awarded the DIA contract. He added that BAASS recruited fifty full-time investigators, most of them former military or law enforcement, all of whom qualified for top-secret clearances, and that in its 27-month existence the program compiled a data warehouse of more than 240,000 case files designed and overseen by Jacques Vallee.[^17] The Black Vault's AAWSAP archive page describes James Lacatski as the director of the program.[^26]

Knapp's testimony states that BAASS produced more than three dozen preliminary reports and more than 100 longer papers, and that "None of these 100-plus reports have been released by DIA, though a few have been leaked."[^17]

### Skinwalkers at the Pentagon

The book was published in 2021 by an independent publisher, with Lacatski, Kelleher and Knapp credited as authors.[^27] The Black Vault's account of the Defense Office of Prepublication and Security Review file for FOIA case 22-F-0035 gives the subtitle as "An Insider's Account of the Secret Government UFO Program." It states that the manuscript was submitted in March 2020, routed to DIA, the Air Force and the [Department of Homeland Security](/organizations/department-of-homeland-security/), and cleared as amended on May 11, 2021. The changes concerned personally identifiable information, protected health information and the names of certain government employees.[^28]

In a Coast to Coast AM interview after the book's release, Kelleher said that the reviewers "made us take out some fairly specific references to various offices and also some of the security-related verbiage," and that active-duty and government personnel "had their names changed." He said the names in the book were pseudonyms for active-duty personnel, and that one of the four pilots involved in the 2004 Tic Tac incident was found to be on active duty and was given a pseudonym. He said the review took about fourteen months, which he attributed to COVID, and that Appendix One, a "full summary of over 100 separate reports" delivered to DIA, was left in: "we expected to have some of that removed but none of it was removed."[^28]

### Inside the US Government Covert UFO Program

Kelleher is also credited, with Lacatski and Knapp, on Inside the US Government Covert UFO Program: Initial Revelations (RTMA, 2023). On November 30, 2023 Keith Basterfield quoted a passage from that book describing a 2011 meeting in the capitol building with a U.S. senator and an agency under secretary, at which Lacatski, the only one of the book's authors present, stated that the United States possessed a craft of unknown origin and had gained access to its interior.[^29]

### Bigelow foundations

Kelleher is listed as a director of the Robert Thomas Bigelow Educational Foundation in its Form 990-PF for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2024, which lists Robert Thomas Bigelow as president and director, Donna Stauch as secretary and director, and Jody Erickson as a director.[^30] For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025, the Educational Foundation reports officer compensation of 93,365 dollars to Kelleher, and the Robert Thomas Bigelow Medical Foundation reports compensation of 37,346 dollars to him.[^31]

### To The Stars Academy

The Form 253G2 offering circular dated September 29, 2017 names Kelleher to an advisory board with [Christopher Mellon](/people/christopher-mellon/), Adele Gilpin, Norman Kahn, [Garry Nolan](/people/garry-nolan/) and Paul Rapp.[^1] The Form 1-K for fiscal 2020, filed April 30, 2021, states that in October 2019 Kelleher resigned from the company's advisory board.[^32]
