UFO SIGHTINGS AROUND THE WORLD

Sighting of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO) have  been reported from different parts of the world for quite sometime. UFOs are believed to have sent to the earth from intelligent life beings from other planets from outer space. Though the sightings have been told by pilots, defence officials,  voyagers etc scientific community has not ratified those so far. We shall now go through some of the sightings.

On December 26, 1980 two US Air Force members reported seeing lights falling on earth over nearby Rendlesham Forest at around 3.00 am. They entered the forest to investigate and saw a metallic object giving off lights and moving around. When local police arrived, they reportedly didn't see any lights, but later discovered markings near the site. After a few days more servicemen went for further investigation in the forest. They have reportedly seen three bright lights in the sky. Later astronomers and researchers disputed the sightings. The airmen were however were firm on their stand.

On July 19, 1952 National Airport at Washington DC detected a movement on their radars from aircraft that weren't scheduled to arrive in the area. Strangely it moved with sudden speed that couldn't be detected by the radar screens. The following weekend eyewitness reported seeing flashes of lights that zooming in the sky. However the subsequent press conference by the Air Force did not support these claims of the witnesses.

The longest UFO sightings were reported from Belgium in 1989. It lasted from November '89 to April '90. About 13,500 people claimed to have witnessed triangular flying objects hovering low in the sky. In 1990 some military fighter pilots investigated and pursued some of the UFOs but those were flew out of range before the pilots could observe anything further. This largest alleged UFO sightings in history was written off as a harmless mystery.

In 1947 a US pilot named Kenneth Arnold was travelling to Yakima, Washington. Suddenly he noticed a bright light reflecting off the side of his plane. He said, he spotted nine aircrafts flying in a 'V' formation at around 1,700 miles per hour. Over the following weeks multiple UFO sightings were reported.
