This document summarizes various unidentified flying object (UFO) sightings reported around the world from 1991 to 2006. It describes several high profile cases including a reported UFO crash retrieval in Russia in 1991, a UFO sighting by an airline crew over Texas in 1995, and the famous Phoenix Lights sighting in 1997 where hundreds of witnesses observed a huge triangular shaped object. The document also discusses crop circles, noting their increasing complexity over time with some theorizing they are of alien origin.

flying object which
cannot be identified by
the observer
remains unidentified
after investigation
in popular culture, UF
O
is often used to refer to
any hypothetical alien
spacecraft The term
flying saucer is also
sometimes used
3. Some reports of unusual aerial phenomena date back to
ancient times
reports of UF sightings started becoming more common
O
after the first widely publicized U.S. sighting in 1947
Many more sightings may, however, remain unreported
because of social stigma around UF
Os
8. 1991 R
ussian Crash & Retrieval a large elongated UFO
invades Russian airspace.
After evading Russian MIGs, the object crashes into the
mountains near the China Border.
Several expeditions are carried out to find the mysterious
craft.
9. 1992, South Haven
an alien space craft crashed into a remote area of
Southaven Park in Shirley just before Thanksgiving, 1992.
the incident happened just after 7:00 P.M. on the night of
November 24, according to John Ford, chairman of the
Long Island U.F.O. Network, who said that it has taken his
group six months to do a thorough investigation.

est
A cigar-shaped object with a row of brightly flashing
lights along its length was observed over the Texas
panhandle by the crew of a westward bound
America West B-757 airliner on May 25, 1995
The case was thoroughly investigated by Walter N.
Webb on behalf of the UFO Research Coalition,
who interviewed the crew and air traffic controllers.
Webb also obtained a copy of the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) voice tapes of conversations
between airplane and ground during the sighting.
11. 1997-The Phoenix Lights
Like a scene from a Sci-Fi movie, a huge,
circular object slowly moved over the city of
Phoenix and surrounding areas.
Numerous photographs, and an abundance of
video film make this one of the best documented
cases in UFO history. Numerous eye witness
accounts recount a large, slow moving triangular
shaped UFO.
18. throughout history humans witnessed circles
and other geometric figures made in the soil by
mysterious craft.
crop circles are a phenomenon that have been
happening as long as crop fields have existed.
they appear in various crops of growing grain
like wheat, barley and oilseed rape (canola) that
are the most common in England. But they have
also been reported in oats, flax, rye, peas,
potatoes, sweet corn maize and even in rice
paddy fields in Japan.
Crop circles formations have also been detected
in places covered with wild grass and
undergrowth
19. mostly they appear during the three main summer
months
around 250 crop designs around the world appear each
year on average and several thousand have been
documented since records began
at the beginning of the 1980s, the circles were very
simple
later the designs of them have become increasingly
much more complex each year. It seems that the
progress of time has also played an important role in the
development of shapes of these master pieces
many of them which recently appeared are very complex.
Naturally, there are many theories trying to explain crop
circles' existence. One of them is alien origin
