Ufo,s Story

Humans have been trying to find out whether or not we're alone in the universe for centuries. Aboard the Voyager 1 space probe - which has travelled further than any other man-made object - is a golden disc containing information about humans and the cultures of our planet. It was hoped by NASA engineers in the 70s that it would once day come into contact with intelligent life and educate them about humankind. As well as sending out potential communications to other worlds, many people have reported evidence of aliens here on Earth. Recently, the mummified remains of what was believed to be an alien proved to be a small child. The skeleton measured just six inches in height, and was found 15 years ago in Chile.

UFO experts were convinced the mummified skeleton was extraterrestrial in origin, and a documentary suggested it was an alien. Following five years of research, scientists concluded that the figure, nicknamed Ata, was actually a baby girl. Even though Ata turned out to be a story of human tragedy rather than of alien visitors, there are plenty of other mysterious sightings that have yet to be explained. Evidence of aliens on Earth - Roswell, New Mexico In July 1947 Sheriff Jess Slaughter and Deputy Sheriff Charles Fogus were travelling together to pick up a prisoner when they heard on their police radio reports of a crashed aircraft. The two men, who were travelling to Roswell, New Mexico, decided to investigate and stumbled across the scene of one of the most famous UFO incidents in history.

 While the US military have long claimed the crashed object was merely a weather balloon, conspiracy theorists believe the site was the scene of at least one alien aircraft crash and the recovery of extraterrestrials. In a new book, UFOs TODAY – 70 Years of Lies, Misinformation and Government Cover-Up, law enforcement officer Fogus reveals he saw a downed flying saucer and military personnel removing a number of alien bodies from the scene. It is the first time his statement has been published. In the interview he says he say a flying saucer crashed into the side of a river bed which was "100ft across". "The bodies must have been 5 feet tall. "I saw the legs and feet on some of them. They looked like our feet.

 "The skin was a brownish color…. Like they were in the sun too long. "There were soldiers there….about 3 or 4 hundred of them. "We seen them haul them (the bodies) out there, out of the canyon up to the trucks….puttin them on the tow trucks so they could haul them." The story of the discovery at Roswell has become legend - and remained one of the most compelling conspiracy theories about the existence of alien visitors to Earth. Evidence of aliens on Mars - trace fossils Thanks to satellite imagery and on-site photography captured by the NASA rovers on the planet's surface, there have been many claims that aliens once inhabited Mars. One of the most striking is the idea that fossilised remains of aliens have been preserved on the dusty surface of the red planet. A series of pictures taken by the space agency's Curiosity rover have given rise to the idea, after researchers found what looks like fossils among the rocks. Barry DiGregorio, a research fellow at the University of Buckingham, believes these photos (taken on January 2, 2018) reveal "trace fossils" on the surface of Mars. "They look remarkably similar to Ordovician trace fossils I have studied and photographed here on Earth," he said.

 "If not trace fossils, what other geological explanations will NASA come up with?" NASA described the formations as "stick-like figures" with each one "about a quarter-inch long". The space agency used the Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) camera on board the Curiosity rover to take the close-up pictures of the patterns. Trace fossils are the name given to remains of things left behind by creatures such as dead remains, footprints or burrows.
