Roderick D. Thompson

Roderick D. Thompson is a researcher and filmmaker known in UFO circles primarily for his involvement in the 2025 documentary 'The Rendlesham UFO - The British Roswell,' where he served as a director alongside Mark Christopher Lee. The film investigates the iconic 1980 Rendlesham Forest incident, often dubbed the British Roswell, involving US Air Force personnel sightings of mysterious lights and possible craft encounters in Suffolk, England. Thompson and Lee employ metal detectors, dowsing rods, and meditation to probe the site, blending serious archival footage of eyewitnesses with light-hearted exploration. They highlight ongoing phenomena into the 1990s and 2000s, creating atmospheric recreations with light installations. No birth/death dates, nationality, or additional UAP publications/testimony are documented in available sources. His work contributes to public interest in this landmark case.
