Three mass sightings in the 1980s and 1990s add credibility to UFO claims.

View Post

Mass UFO sightings include the “Hudson Valley Wave” that occurred between 1981 – 1984. Reports were collected from pilots, scientists, and police

Triangular objects “the size of a jumbo jet” were also reported. All craft could hover silently, turn tightly, and accelerate quickly.

Over 150 witnesses reported unusual craft over Belgium in early 1990. This included an “aircraft-sized object turned upside down.”

All craft could hover silently, turn tightly, and accelerate quickly. Belgian Air Force General Wilfried De Brouwer was in charge of the Belgian Air Force’s official investigation.
