Flying Saucers

on BBC One London

- and the people who see them
Fact or fancy?
The United States Air Force is spending half a million dollars trying to find out.
An investigation by Dr. Stephen Black.
Are people really seeing spacecraft from another planet? Or are people round the world being hallucinated on a vast and unprecedented scale?
The U.S. Air Force Consultant on this subject, Dr. J. Allen Hynek, distinguishes between the people who see Flying Saucers and those who believe in them. The believers are so wishful in their thinking they just don't need to see in order to bolster their faith. But the people who see Flying Saucers are different and, in his opinion more good might come from a study of sincere witnesses than from bothering too much about what they say they've seen.
In this extensive investigation in Britain and across the United States, Dr. Black questions a number of sincere witnesses about their very strange experiences.
