Mufon's new International Director's email to Jim Hickman:
"Jim, I am now the new International Director for MUFON and I personally wanted to thank you for your support for MUFON. I and MUFON really appreciate all you are doing for us. Keep up the good work and much success to you and your future. All the Best",-Clifford Clift International Director MUFON
The truth is so hard to
find… Since Biblical times man has witnessed and recorded
strange manifestations in the sky and speculated on the
possibilities of visitors from another world. Today, from the
skies of California, the fields of Kansas, the rice patties of
the Orient, the airlines of the world, come persistent reports
of UFO's-Unidentified Flying Objects, which we have come to know
as flying saucers.
UFOs are real. 12,000+ case files reported to the U.S. Air Force
from 1947 to 1968 of these, 701 are still classified as true
unknowns. An extraordinary 95 percent of all Americans have at
least heard or read something about Unidentified Flying Objects,
and 57 percent believe they are real. Former US Presidents
Carter and Reagan claim to have seen a UFO. At present, the
United States government does not officially investigate UFO
sightings.
UFOs are unidentified flying objects, but no one really knows
what they are. Many researchers have theories about what UFOs
might be, but because no one can examine a UFO in a scientific
laboratory, all of these ideas are really only educated guesses.
95 to 98% of all sightings can be easily explained by experts.
We can offer a definition of UFOs, however, that you may find
useful when you study the subject:
A UFO is the reported sighting of an object or light seen in the
sky or on land, whose appearance, trajectory, actions, motions,
lights, and colors do not have a logical, conventional, or
natural explanation, and which cannot be explained, not only by
the original witness, but by scientists or technical experts who
try to make a common sense identification after examining the
evidence.
UFOlogists-and private UFO organizations are found throughout
the United States. Many are convinced that the US Government,
and particularly CIA, are engaged in a massive conspiracy and
cover-up of the issue. The idea that CIA has secretly concealed
its research into UFOs has been a major theme of UFO buffs since
the modern UFO phenomena emerged in the late 1940s.
All kinds of people see UFOs. It does not matter whether you are
rich or poor, educated or uneducated, young or old. In fact,
many people who report seeing UFOs were not even looking for
them when they had their sighting. The chances for seeing a UFO
are greater for those people who live in small towns or in the
country and are outside late at night. Although most of us have
never seen a UFO personally, some colleagues of ours say that
their interest in UFOs was sparked by seeing a UFO when they
were children or young adults.
Many UFO researchers argue that UFOs have appeared throughout
history. There are many myths, legends, and stories that tell of
strange things seen in the sky or beings who came from the sky
to help humans develop civilization. Because modern scholars
cannot directly check the facts of these stories, it is
impossible to determine if these are accurate reports of true
events. Caution should be taken when evaluating many UFO news
items -you are encouraged to investigate and research
information pertaining to UFOs or stories so that you may draw
your own conclusions.
