UFO Hunters Must First Establish Witness Reliability

In all the UFO sightings, one of the major considerations of UFO Hunters is the reliability of witnesses. Other important considerations include the number of witnesses, how long they saw the UFO, how far away they were from the UFO and the weather conditions at the time of the sighting.

Common Features UFO Hunters Look For

There are many similarities and numerous common features in various UFO reports. For example, one major common feature is that the witnesses often insist that the objects they saw were under intelligent control. Why, you might ask? Many of those that come to this conclusion, like Kenneth Arnold, who saw flying saucers above Mount Rainier, believe they see the objects flying in formation or toward another object or changing direction or speed dramatically.

Why UFO Hunters Say Visual Sightings Are The Least Reliable Evidence

Thanks to human nature, we have are hardwired to explain and understand everything we see. And, this is the major reason why visual sightings of UFOs are the least reliable. Let me explain. It is rather simple to fool the untrained eyes of a person. In fact we can trick them to the point of having hallucinations. For example, a bright light, such as the planet Venus, often appears to move, though a clamped telescope or a sighting bar shows it to be fixed. Now, most sightings are based on an assumed size, thus causing the visual impression of distance to be unreliable. Then factor in the reflections from windows or even eyeglasses. That reflection often times will provide superimposed views. Again, if there are certain optical defects, it can turn point sources of light into apparently saucer-shaped objects. Such optical illusions blended with a desire to interpret visual image account for many over exaggerated UFO reports, which UFO Hunters must dismiss before obtaining the truth.

"Timothy Beckley is a top name among UFO researchers. So is John Keel, author of the enduring "Our Haunted Planet," who provided the foreword for this timely work and appears within the text as well.

The subject of the men in black has been treated in certain circles as comic book subject matter to be dismissed from serious discussion. A prominent film was made that dealt with the men in black phenomenon in that manner.

What many investigative types will find refreshing is that "Mystery of the Men in Black: The UFO Silencers" by Timothy Beckley consists of numerous case histories with added commentary from either the researchers presenting the cases, or from the investigators themselves in those instances where they discuss a case study or studies."

What Is A UFO? 

Unidentified flying object (commonly abbreviated as UFO or U.F.O.) is the popular term for any aerial phenomenon whose cause cannot be easily or immediately identified by the observer. The United States Air Force, which coined the term in 1952, initially defined UFOs as those objects that remain unidentified after scrutiny by expert investigators,Air Force Regulation 200-2 text versionpdf of document, initially defined a UFO as "any airborne object that by performance, aerodynamic characteristics, or unusual features, does not conform to any presently known aircraft or missile type, or that cannot be positively identified as a familiar object." The Air Force added that "Technical Analysis thus far has failed to provide a satisfactory explanation for a number of sightings reported." A later version [http://www.foia.af.mil/shared/media/document/AFD-070703-004.pdf] altered the definition to "Any aerial phenomena, airborne objects or objects that are unknown or appear out of the ordinary to the observer because of performance, aerodynamic characteristics, or unusual features," and added "Air Force activities must reduce the percentage of unidentifieds to a minimum. Analysis thus far has explained all but a few of the sightings reported. These unexplained sightings are carried statistically as unidentifieds." though the term UFO is often used more generally to describe any sighting unidentifiable to the reporting observer(s). Popular culture frequently takes the term UFO as a synonym for alien spacecraft. Cults have become associated with UFOs, and mythology and folklore have evolved around the phenomenon.Vallée, J. (1990). Alien Contact by Human Deception." New York: Anomalist Books. ISBN 1-933665-30-0 Some investigators now prefer to use the broader term unidentified aerial phenomenon (or UAP), to avoid the confusion and speculative associations that have become attached to UFO. A good example is the National Aviation Reporting Center on Anomalous Phenomena or NARCAP. [http://www.narcap.org/newspage.htm] Another widely known acronym for UFO in Spanish, French, Portuguese and Italian is OVNI.

Studies have established that the majority of UFOs are observations of some real but conventional object?most commonly aircraft, balloons, or astronomical objects such as meteors or bright planets?that have been misidentified by the observer as anomalies while a small percentage of reported UFOs are hoaxes.For example, the USAFs Project Blue Book concluded that less than 2 % of reported UFOs were "psychological" or hoaxes; Allen Hendry's study for CUFOS had less than 1 % Only a small percentage of reported sightings (usually 5 to 20%) can be classified as unidentified flying objects in the strictest sense (see below for some studies).

Some scientists have argued that all UFO sightings are misidentifications of natural phenomenaMenzel, D. H.; Taves, E. H. (1977). The UFO enigma. Garden City (NY, USA): Doubleday and historically, there was debate among some scientists about whether scientific investigation was warranted given available empirical data.McDonald, James. E. (1968). Statement on Unidentified Flying Objects submitted to the House Committee on Science and Astronautics at July 29, 1968, Symposium on Unidentified Flying Objects, Rayburn Bldg., Washington, D.D.COMETA Report: http://www.ufoevidence.org/topics/Cometa.htm Politicking and Paradigm Shifting: James E. McDonald and the UFO Case Study http://www.project1947.com/shg/mccarthy/shgintro.htmlhttp://news-service.stanford.edu/news/1998/july1/ufostudy71.html Very little peer-reviewed literature has been published in which scientists have proposed, studied or supported non-prosaic explanations for UFOs. Nevertheless, over the years UFOs have been the subject of many investigations that have varied widely in scope and scientific rigor.

UFO reports became frequent after the first widely publicized U.S. sighting, reported by private pilot Kenneth Arnold in 1947, that gave rise to the popular terms "flying saucer" and "flying disc." Since then, millions of people have reported that they have seen UFOs.For example, recent 2008 U.S. and U.K. opinion polls [http://www.reporternews.com/news/2008/jul/26/you-are-not-alone/] indicate that at least 8 % of these populations say they have had UFO sightings

    Some times I feel like a fish in a tank! There is a lot of UFO activity in the Tahoe area. Last summer my roommate took a picture, and to our surprise there was a UFO in it. We never saw it till we uploaded the photos! Should demand the truth, or like in ignorant bliss?

    Hi solarstories,

    I am glad you like the lens. Thank you for letting me know about the videos. YouTube has been having allot of problems over the past 3 or 4 months playing the older videos. So members are pulling their videos and re-uploading them as new videos so they have a new URL.

    I am going through and updating them. So they should all be working again soon.
