Are UFOs real? Famous people who believed
Telegraph UK ^ | 4-22-09 | staff

Posted on 04/22/2009 1:47:15 PM PDT by VinL

The former NASA astronaut Edgar Mitchell has claimed that aliens exist and their visits are being covered up by the United States government. Mitchell is in good company in his beliefs. Here we highlight 12 other public figures...[Snip]

Ronald Reagan, US President from 1980 to 1988, "I looked out the window and saw this white light.It was zigzagging around. I went up to the pilot and said, 'Have you ever seen anything like that?' He was shocked and he said, 'nope.' And I said to him: 'Let's follow it!' We followed it for several minutes. It was a bright white light.We followed it to Bakersfield, and all of a sudden to our utter amazement it went straight up into the heavens. When I got off the plane I told Nancy all about it." [snip]

and why is US government covering it up? Didn’t Carter say he will reveal all when he became president, so what happened with that?

Here’s the problem I have with UFO’s. You’d think that with the explosion of dash board cameras, personal camcorders, surveillance cameras spattered across the planet in the hundreds of thousands, not to mention high tech radar, (not to be confused with a cops radar gun) that at least one, just ONE image of ET would emerge.

People who believe that UFOs are spaceships from another planet don’t really understand how big the universe is.

Unidentified flying “objects” have been observed by many reliable observers, so they existed. What they were is another question.

Personally I don’t think ET crashed at Roswell in 1947. Evidence can easily be faked, but human nature stays the same. And the US government didn’t behave as though such an event had occurred.

I have never understood questions such as:

"Are UFO's real?"
or
"Do you believe in UFO's?"

Think about the acronym - unidentified, flying, objects.

Of course there are flying objects that are never identified.
If I throw a 3" long 1/4" diameter 20 thread per inch hex bolt over the heads of 25 people how many could properly identify the object? Probably none unless they had first examined the object at rest. Even then probably only a few.

This is just an example. Obviously there may be many objects that move over our heads everyday that are never identified. That does not make them alien.

I'm with you.....thousands upon thousands of cameras world wide and all that seems to be caught is out of focus, fuzzy, shaky pix of orbs.

I will believe in ufo’s when I see a video that show’z the rivet's and dents in the hull of the spacecraft as it's landing in the McDonalds parking lot in an attempt to gain samples of the mystery meat to be analyzed as to it's real ingredients.

Dr. Ed Mitchell is a true hero, and his performance on Apollo 14 was magnificent. But he’s also quite nutty when it comes to paranormal claims, and with time and age he’s just gotten nuttier.

They are waiting for someone to ask who has a full grasp of capitalization.

They may wait awhile yet.

Crop circles are the work of the Good People, not of aliens.

The U stands for unidentified. As long as it’s unidentified, it’s not from some alien planet.

my God, I hope UFO's aren't real. if they are, obama will give them amnesty and citizenship, and ACORN will register evvery onbe of them as democrat voters by the mid term elections.

and then they will all fill out cards requesting union membership.
