"But is there truly a serious lack of evidence for UFOs, as skeptics have insisted since the 1950s?
For the past several years, my colleagues and I have analyzed “transients,” intriguing astronomical phenomena which change in brightness – or disappear entirely – over short periods of time.
Our research has zeroed in on hundreds of thousands of bright, star-like short flashes of light, recorded in photographic surveys of the night sky. Importantly, these astronomical observations are from the years before the Soviet Union launched the first man-made satellite, Sputnik, in 1957."
"The most statistically significant alignment of transient flashes in our dataset occurred on July 27, 1952, a date which stands out in UFO lore. Over the course of two successive weekends in July 1952, pilots, air traffic controllers, and radar operators at three stations in the Washington, D.C., area observed objects conducting seemingly extraordinary maneuvers."
