Since ancient times, they have been spotted. From the ancient people of Egypt and China, sightings have been recorded and stories have been passed on throughout generations. Today, they remain objects of mystery, seen and sighted but never explained.
The term UFO is actually an acronym that stands for “Unidentified Flying Object”. As such, the term UFO generally refers to anything that is sighted to be hovering or flying across the sky, but can't be identified as any known flying object, such as an airplane, a jet, kite, balloon, blimp, or helicopter.
Unidentified Flying Objects come in a host of shapes and sizes, from inverted trapezoids to the most common spinning disc to simple, flashing lights with no immediate evident source in the sky. Through closer examination of evidence a number of UFO sightings are sooner or later explained and properly identified, but there are just as many, if not more cases that remain a mystery even years after they were released publicly. There are also a number of UFO sightings that have been proven to be hoaxes.
A fair number of theories and speculations have been formed as to the origin of unidentified flying objects. Perhaps the most popular theory or speculation as to what these unidentified flying objects actually are refer to them as being aircrafts of extra-terrestrials from outer space. Since the 1940s, numerous UFO sightings across the globe are reported every year, many of them accompanied by video footage or still images. Many of these footages and pictures can be accessed online, as the rise and popularity of the internet has allowed UFO enthusiasts around the world to congregate and share their experiences, theories and evidence through numerous forums and websites.
One of the most well-known and popular case about UFOs is the incident that occurred in Roswell, often known as the Roswell Incident. Apparently in 1947, an unidentified flying object crashed in Roswell, New Mexico. Various debris and parts of the alleged flying saucer were collected, and some reports even claim that alien bodies were also gathered from the crash site. There are numerous versions of the events that took place in the Roswell incident, and after more than half a century the mystery behind the stories have still yet to be settled.
UFOs have also been ingrained in popular culture, spawning box office movies, novels, comic books, graphic t-shirts, and a host of paraphernalia.
We may never really know what UFOs are exactly, where they come from, and why they appear. But one thing is certain: the mystery of UFOs is one that has captivated, and will continue to captivate, generations upon generations of curious humans on planet Earth.

Unidentified Flying Objects, or UFOs, have been navigating earthly skies since Alexander the Great’s army first spotted them in 329 BC. Coming in a variety of shapes, and with different flight paths and light signals to boot, UFOs haven't only occupied humankind’s popular literature, but have made alien-obsessed people out of many fascinated watchers.
Part of the excitement comes with the fact that UFOs are unidentified: are they weather balloons on fire? Light spacecraft tested for durability by a secret Air Force group? Or are they simply alien craft? These speculations have added fuel to the question: what kind of technology do these UFOs have that enable them to fly to our planet from distant regions of the galaxy?
Given the characteristics of UFOs, what might this technology be?
• UFOs fly at incredible speeds without breaking the sound barrier – Supersonic planes are made of high grade metal alloys, allowing such planes to withstand the impact of the sound barrier as soon as the plane gets past the speed of sound. It is this deep “sonic boom” most people hear – but where is this sonic boom when UFOs start traveling at thousands of miles per hour?
UFO occupants may have discovered a special alloy that not only breaks the laws of physics, but seems to be durable in the earth’s atmosphere. Since UFOs fly fast and quickly change direction, their material may be both strong and lightweight. Could our space agencies find such an alloy one day, allowing us to make our own spacecraft?
• UFOs leave a trail of damage behind – UFO sightings are usually accompanied by mutilated cattle, scorched ground, or humans suffering from apparent radiation poisoning – and sometimes, without the UFO even touching the ground.
What technology could UFO occupants have that they can wreak havoc at a distance, and without the use of apparent force? Might such technology be use on earth one day?
• UFOs can disrupt electronic and navigational equipment – Without the use of apparent force, UFOs can cause cars to break down, phones to shut off, and compasses to go haywire. What frequency, or energy, are they emitting? Can this energy be utilized for our own needs on earth?
With all these technologies apparently possessed by these strange visitors, another question might be asked: how can humans harness the technology to fly out of earth and see the rest of the universe? Perhaps one day, the lights and materials that make up UFOs will be ours, and we, in turn, will fly our own UFOs and be aliens in another world.
