This week has been a major one for the UFO fans.. one, a major state official in the US – former Arizona Governor admitted on witnessing the Phoenix Lights in 1997 reports wikinews:
Former Arizona Republican Governor Fife Symington III said that he had witnessed one of the "craft of unknown origin" during the 1997 Phoenix Lights event, but noted that he didn’t go public with the information. In an interview with the Daily Courier in Prescott, Fife said:
It was enormous and inexplicable. Who knows where it came from? A lot of people saw it, and I saw it too. It was dramatic. And it couldn’t have been flares because it was too symmetrical. It had a geometric outline, a constant shape.
Now France’s National Space Agency has unveiled a website (unfortunately, although well organized and created, as per Physorg, the website has… well.. crashed!) for the UFO citings:
France became the first country to open its files on UFO’s Thursday when the national space agency unveiled a website documenting more than 1,600 sightings spanning five decades.
The online archives, which will be updated as new cases are reported, catalogues in minute detail cases ranging from the easily dismissed to a handful that continue to perplex even hard-nosed scientists.
"It is a world first," said Jacques Patenet, the aeronautical engineer who heads the office for the study of "non-identified aerospatial phenomena." Story Link
Known as OVNI’s in French, UFO’s have always generated intense interest along with countless conspiracy theories about secretive government cover-ups of findings deemed too sensitive or alarming for public consumption.
