This article was originally written for a paranormal magazine called The Paranormal Journal,  it became known as The Underground Files covering ghosts, ufos, cryptozoology, and government conspiracies amongst others. I no longer write for the magazine and it is no longer in existence.

Robots in our Skies and UFOs

Spacecraft is heading for our skies in the future, not ufos but technical craft devised by our betters for tracking terrorists.

These sightings will no longer be attributed to ball lightening but accepted as UAVs instead, so reports of ufos will be ignored even more than they are now.

Leonard David writes in space.com that Tom Ridge, who runs homeland security, wants UAVS to monitor U.S. Borders “very seriously” and plans to work with the Department of Defence to build robot planes that will be able to do this.

“I would definitely say that as time goes on it is becoming increasingly difficult to categorise ufos as unidentified, given the large number of UAV projects that are in development,” says Colm Kelleher, of the National Institute of Discovery Science (NIDS).

NASA involved says there are 50 companies, academic institutions and government groups working to bring over 150 designs of UAVS into existence – and those are just the unclassified versions.

Many UAVs are classified as they are used by the military and intelligence communities.

In 1999, NIDS setup a hotline for ufo sightings and have received around 5,000 phone calls and emails. They investigated them weeding out rocket launches, satellite reentries, and meteors, and were left with 1,100 reports to follow up.

“Among these were approximately 300 sightings of black triangles, but also multiple reports of sightings of small objects, some in daylight,” says Kelleher.

NIDS now need to determine how many of these lesser objects were UAVS.

Mark Rodeghier, of the J. Allen Hynek Centre for UFO Studies says, “We certainly suspect that there were, and are, such reports. Of course, UAVs, as far as we know, are not flown all over the country, but in certain places, such as near military bases, on the borders, and now possibly in some urban areas after 9/11. So there are vast areas of the country, I would think, where UAV misperceptions are unlikely.”

However, he adds, “UAVs often have odd designs that don't resemble airplanes and are sometimes closer to the popular conception of the ufo's shape.”

Many ufo sightings are at night, and UAVS don't have lights, so that's when it will be possible to determine the difference.

“So most UAV sightings should occur during the day,” Rodeghier says. “Also, UAVs probably would not always land in populated areas. So people who see something close to the ground are probably not seeing a UAV. Lastly, if people could be told roughly were UAVs fly in the continental United States – and where they don't – this should help.”

But since so many UAVs are classified, this becomes very unlikely to happen in the near future.
