WATCH: Most clear and shocking video footage of a UFO you will EVER see
Although many UFO sightings often have rational explanations, a small number truly are unexplained. Here’s our pick of the most compelling UFO sightings from all over the world
MUFON investigator Peter Davenport said on the website: “One of the greatest burdens that UFO investigators have to bear, in the course of their collecting and investigating sighting reports submitted by members of the public, is the deluge of apparently false reports and cases of mistaken identity that have to be waded through, and eliminated from, the stream of incoming data.
“What prompts people to create and submit bogus reports is unclear, save for the apparently widespread lack of self-discipline, and lack of concern for others, that seems all too common in mankind.
“However, the fact remains that such deception takes place constantly, and that it probably will continue in ufology, and elsewhere, until long after we have finally laid to rest the mystery of UFOs.”
