There's been a lot in this week's papers about alleged UFO sightings in Shropshire and parts of Wales. So called 'experts' on the subject are saying they should be investigated, and the people who saw them claim that they were definitely alien craft and proof that there is life on other planets.

But sceptics have dismissed it all as cases of mistaken identity with other objects, and I'm inclined to go along with that as I don't think aliens exist. But its a quirky story and it'll be interesting to see how it develops. After all as they once said on the X-Files 'the truth is out there'

In today's paper it said people connected with the Doctor Who prog have denied it was anything to do with them because they weren't filming at the time  

It does seem strange with so many sightings lately. There were even hundreds of sightings over Liverpool too! I just wish we could have proper pics of UFOs instead of the long distance blobs in the sky we usually get

I'd imagine it would take high tech gadgets of some description to get proper professional quality pictures of them but all the same some concrete evidence would be good as I'd imagine the majority of those who read about the alleged appearances of the craft are a tad sceptical. So unless something changes and we're shown an actual part of one I remain unconvinced, and 'Life On Mars' will continue to be just the title of a David Bowie song and a TV series!

They must be very shy aliens cause we get all these UFO sightings but never any reports of face to face encounters with aliens here on earth!

I think they must be, although if they came down they'd probably be given full benefits and nice homes under our current system!

question: why defy physics to get her from another galaxy millions of light years away, just to scare some old lady in a field; not very logical is it?

in my opinion there is multiple planets supporting life (there has to be) among the billions in our universe..............but travelling here unannounced seems ludicrous

just my take on things

Yeah, I see your point. But I really can't see aliens invading- they'd probably take a quick look at Earth then turn for home....

now i think that if they were going to visit - we would know all about it...................because the journey involved would dictate it

Maybe they're here on earth already like in The Invaders or Invasion of the Body Snatchers!  

So many people have seen UFOs it makes you wonder what they've actually seen.......we've had soldiers, police and airline pilots reporting sightings as well as ordinary people......surely they can't all be wrong?
