UFOs
[I] Introduction:
What exactly is a U.F.O? Where do they come from? What do they want from us? Well, a UFO is an unusual airborne object that cannot be identified, even after an expert examination. 90 Percent of these reports are either Hoaxes, Conventional objects, or some poor person going insane. The other 10 percent is considered UFO enigma.
[II] History:
The data of the first UFO sighting is not known. Some researchers say that UFO sightings date back to ancient times. There is no evidence for this speculation, so it is just a thought. Most researchers though mark the beginning of sightings in the United States un the later 1800s, they were called „The Mystery Airships“. The next major fleet of sightings were during the second world war, from pilots who say they say metal like objects floating in the sky. These fighter pilots called them „foo fighters“. And in 1947 in Europe, there were sightings of silent „ghost rockets“. None of these speculations were ever entirely explained.
The UFO phenomenon entered the publics eye on June 24, 1947, at 2:44am, when private pilot Kenneth Arnold reported sighting nine circular objects in the skies over the state of Washington. He (Kenneth) described these objects like „saucers skipping over water“. There the term Flying Saucer was born.
[III] UFO Waves:
Since 1947 there have been UFO sightings in almost every country. Sometimes there is something called a UFO wave, which for a short time UFO sighting increase rapidly in one certain area. For instance, UFO waves occurred in France and Italy in 1954, in New Guinea in 1958, and in the USSR in 1967. In the United States and Canada, waves happened in 1947, 1952, 1957, 1965-67, and in 1979. Nobody can explain ANYTHING about these waves. Attempts to link them with hysteria, mentality and stress have all failed.
[IV] Facts and Polls:
There are thousands of sightings each year. In 1973, a Gallup poll said that 11 percent of the American public has had an encounter with a UFO. More then 500,000 worldwide sighting reports have been computerized. A study of these reports are random and show no pattern. Witnesses cut across economic, class, race and educational lines. However, a greater percentage of these reports have come from people living in rural areas, then from people living in urban areas. The reason for this……. UNKNOWN!
