After all, is there life on other planets? Did these beings ever be on Earth? These questions have intrigued humanity for thousands of years, and this theme is analyzed very carefully by part of the ufologists, who are the specialists responsible for the study of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs).
The UFO concept encompasses all flying objects that are unrecognizable at once, so this term is not just limited to viewing flying saucers. This theme is viewed with suspicion by a part of the population that does not believe in the existence of life on other planets. However, many people believe, with some of them claiming to have seen UFOs.
In various parts of the world there are reports of individuals who have come across “strange” objects, supposedly carried by extraterrestrials. However, in most cases, experts claim that these people have confused some objects (kites, artificial satellites, balloons, planes, etc.) with UFOs.
The large amount of photo montages and simulations of situations that could “prove” the existence of UFOs made this theme lose credibility. However, there are communities that faithfully believe that UFOs transit the Earth. In the Chapada dos Veadeiros region, in the state of Goiás, for example, there is an “airport” for flying saucers.
Anyway, the evidence of UFO transiting the Earth will continue to generate controversy and be a great mystery.
