Last year, I read many articles about UFO sightings all over the world. Halfway into this year, I’m noticing a strange trend. Most of the articles I have read center on England sightings. Is there some strange weather phenomenon that is causing these strange lights? Or have the aliens taken a liking to scones and tea?
Below is an article I found about the effect that Close Encounters of the Third Kind had on the public, when it was released in 1978. Naturally, reports of UFO sightings spiked to unprecedented levels. The Ministry of Defence has release 7,000 of these reports to the public.
Like the French archives, the majority of these reports have easy explanations. But there are a few that would leave you to wonder.
Alex Gibb, a non-believer of UFO’s, ran outside to investigate when he saw four strange lights hovering in the sky at around 9pm last Wednesday night. The video above is the footage that Alex took. So far no government agency has come forward to explain this sighting away, but the Androssan Herald has promised a follow-up story as well as exclusive pictures of the sighting.
Last night marked the 11th anniversary of the infamous Phoenix lights, which the government still claims were flares despite the testimonies of countless witnesses from all walks of life who said otherwise. The video above shows Jim D’Litoso of Village Labs explains how the lights weren’t flares. His presentation was interesting and thought-provoking.
I found another video from AZFamily.com that shows two opposing sides in this controversy, a Ufologist and a noted astronomer. You can either read the transcript of this newsbit or watch the video.
I was an ardent fan of the X-Files when it premiered in 1993, only to find myself disappointed at the end when it became clear that the writers weren’t going to answer the questions that had kept fans glued to the set for nine years. That said, I enjoyed the first eight seasons very much. My husband and I looked forward to seeing what freaky weirdness Agents Mulder and Scully were going to face each Friday night.
When I saw this set on A&E’s shopping link, my curiosity was piqued. This promises to be an excellent set, with footage of every frame ever filmed of the X-Files, plus hundreds of bonus items on 61 DVDs. I can’t even begin to picture how big the box will be or where I would put it if I decide to order this collection. I’ll have until January 9th to make a decision, as the promo for the sale will end.
