ARE UFO STORIES REAL?

A definitive evidence of the extraterrestrial invasion in India in the modern times is the red rain phenomenon. Before investigating the unnatural event that left many guessing about its true cause, it is important to make ourselves comfortable with the intellectual data available to support the fact that there has been contact from intelligent beings from outside of our plant.           
                           
A reader asks: “Are UFO stories real?”

The answer to that question is, yes. Most of the reports and stories circulating around UFO sightings are real. However, there are a certain percentage of UFO sightings that could not be validated based on solid proof or evidence. I am not overlooking the fact that there are many hoaxes and fake videos as well as reports out there.
                                                    
Lack of tangible proof or the so-called ‘smocking gun’ used to be the greatest impediment the mainstream media propagated in order to hide such news or information as the contact with an Unidentified Flying Object or its occupants.

There are eyewitness testimonies, verifiable technical data, photographic evidence, and results of chemical and radiation analysis that stand out as stalwart evidence for the truth in UFO “stories”. Much like any other news story though, the accuracy of many of these studies and evidences could be questioned. However, the weight and ingenuity of these evidences are similar to what is required to convict a man for a lifetime sentence in our present day courtrooms. Still, the society does not seem to care much about these overwhelming signs.

One of the similar instances comes to my mind. The 9/11 incident, according to some conspiracy theorists, is a hologram projection that befooled the public and media, and not a real terror attack. They argue that it was a planned event and the planes were just a ploy to divert attention to saw the seeds of hatred. There are no definite answers. This, perhaps, is the nature of the reality of this world we live in. Albert Einstein called it relativity. I would like to call this crisis, the earthly paradigm.

According to the ‘earthly paradigm’, definite and accurate truth is impossible. There exists, however, a chance to see and experience the truth, through Faith and Believing in God. However, one must also understand that such a concept as God is essentially ‘extraterrestrial’ in nature. This is not to argue that what our ancestor’s addressed as God, the power that is the source of all being is essentially an alien. I do not take that version for granted. I do believe that God is not of this earth, but still, God is inclusive of the earth too. God created everything with His essence. Therefore, he is the creator, independent of his creation and part of all his creation at the same time. This state is an impossibility for any alien being to achieve.

Although Roswell crash, New Mexico is one of the most popular UFO stories, there are other, more reliable and significant UFO encounters across the world. A UFO crash occurred in USSR is one such example that provides evidence that these phenomena are not territorial-bound. Mount Izvestkovaya is in Russia. On January 29, 1986, an Unidentified Flying Object crashed in Dalnegorsk, Primorsky Krai. Mount Izvestkovaya, also known as Height 611, is a hill located on the territory of this town. Later investigators found that “the ground looked like it was affected by very high temperatures. The rocks at the impact site were covered with a black film, and remains of a burnt tree were found within the landing ground. The remains were not typical for a forest fire.”

I used this example above to say that UFOs don’t crash down on American soil alone. Another instance that piqued my attention is the incident with Robert Lee White aka Bob White. In 1985, Bob White witnessed a UFO ejecting a hot substance. He came to possess a metallic cone-shaped object, apparently not made of any known metal upon the earth. Bob White continued to appear in several documentaries and magazine articles dedicated to finding the truth about UFOs, until his death in 2009.

In the previous chapter, I attempted to give an introduction to UFO sightings in India. It seems that by day, the evidences are mounting up, and as I investigate into this matter, the amazement and surprise tend to blow out of all proportions. Here is one example to the increasing number of unclassified cases that are flooding the internet.
