UFO study finds no sign of aliens
BBC ^ | 5/7/06

A confidential Ministry of Defence report on Unidentified Flying Objects has concluded that there is no proof of alien life forms. In spite of the secrecy surrounding the UFO study, it seems citizens of planet Earth have little to worry about.

The report, which was completed in 2000 and stamped "Secret: UK Eyes Only", has been made public for the first time. Only a small number of copies were produced and the identity of the man who wrote it has been protected. His findings were only made public thanks to the Freedom of Information Act, after a request by Sheffield Hallam University academic Dr David Clarke.

The four-year study - entitled Unidentified Aerial Phenomena in the UK - tackles the long-running question by UFO-spotters: "Is anyone out there?" The answer, it seems, is "no". The 400-page report puts it like this: "No evidence exists to suggest that the phenomena seen are hostile or under any type of control, other than that of natural physical forces."

...there is no proof of alien life forms.

Or if anyone knows there is proof he/she is not talking or presenting proof. Call me unconvinced.

"Is anyone out there?" The answer, it seems, is "no".

Now do you honestly think Roger Leir, George Noory, Art and the Prophecy Club are going to believe this and go away?

Next time they want to do a study of a DUH topic ... can I give them my name and address and I'll do it for less? I'd say this is OBVIOUS.

Well, the USAF "Scientific Study of Unidentified Flying Objects" was an obvious coverup if you read the whole thing, but I don't think it was covering up anything but the AF's determination to end its role in a controversy it felt was a complete waste of time. Something similar may be happening here.
