The British Ministry of Defense confirmed that a secret study completed in December 2000 had found no evidence that "flying saucers" or unidentified flying objects were anything other than natural phenomena. What do you think?

So why do they bother to employ people such as Nick Pope if they think that it is all just natural phenomona!

Because they wanted an analysis of aerial sightings carried out in a scientific manner? Not one based on the extrapolation of UFO folklore?

What I meant was that Nick Pope is still working for them. The concluding report was issued in 2000? Therefore, if they think they know the answers why do they still have someone on the payroll looking into this stuff?

Ufos are most certainly real. There is too much evidence now ( worldwide ) to say otherwise. These things are being seen by the public, pilots, ministery of defence officials, seamen and also, there is evidence that these things have been visiting earth for thousands of years.

For the M.O.D to come out with a statement like they did yesterday is strange to say the least. When, clearly, the evidence that we are being visited, is there for all to see.

The public are NOT fools, that can be treated like children and told one thing when our eyes clearly see something completely different. Give us some credit and do not insult our intelligence.

Not everything can be dismissed as atmospheric conditions??? Unbelievable. These things are controlled craft of an unknown origin. Whether they are coming to warn us of an impending doom if we do not heed the way we are treating this planet earth, or for some other reason, we deserve to know.

We deserve better than what the M.O.D has come out with. And whether people like it or not, they are of an alien-type manufactured origin that we can only dream off.

There is no proof we have UFO on earth, just because were not alone in this universe, mean that any race will ever find us or we'll find them, Space is a very big place, Even just this 1 small galaxy still has countless numbers of stars,

And if ufos were actual aliens, why?, If you had choice, be honest, would you rather live on your home in a hightech place of even in a space station, than flying around this giant ball of mud plagued by humans and deaseses......

Too many people jump to conclusions, if it wasnt for the books starting up about aliens followed by movies, people would stop jumping mostly to "Ooooh shit run it and alien!!!"



They could actully be a resonable reason..., The earth is a strange place, Only in the last few years have scientists found out about Megalightning that took out that spacecraft and the happening at Bermuda near US and Devils Sea in Japan, The only way to find out is wait

Well I know what I saw wasn't natural phenomena
Daylight, stationary cigar shaped object, saucer shaped objects going into it then cigar shaped object excelorating away with flames coming out of the end of it.
I would hardley call that natural phenomena.
