January 10th 2026 From Giorgio A. Tsoukalos
It is with profound sadness and a heavy heart that we announce yesterday’s passing of Erich von Däniken on January 10, 2026. Our thoughts are with his family. EvD is also mourned by his friends around the world, the millions of readers of his books, and the many colleagues who have had the privilege of working with him for decades.
His “Archaeology, Astronautics, and SETI Research Association” (A.A.S. R.A.) and all those interested in the Ancient Astronaut Theory and Paleo-SETI research have received this news with dismay and sorrow. What a tremendous loss.
We will keep searching old friend
