Their proper scientific study is crucial for various reasons, including the need for scientists and the public to know the basic facts, understand how evidence is recorded, and distinguish between reliable evidence and fiction. Additionally, it is essential to understand the difference between plausible explanations and fantasy and between reliable evidence and rumor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo achieve this objective, the book surveys the history of UFO observations, the variety of recorded phenomena, and recounts the efforts of investigative commissions and their published findings. While the book aims to demystify wild rumors, it is not an exercise in rumor-bashing. Instead, it encourages an open and critical mindset. Many narratives and hypotheses may appear implausible based on our current state of knowledge, but this should not lead to their outright exclusion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe author also pays attention to UFO sightings that have so far eluded explanation in terms of known physics or meteorology. Here, the reader will encounter some of the more speculative but scientifically tenable proposals, such as those relating to sudden zigzag motion without apparent inertia or recognizable propulsion, yet always with a clear guide to their plausibility.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLastly, the book outlines plans and suggestions for future research capable of revealing the existence and intentions of extraterrestrial intelligences, outer-space engineers, or technologies so far known only from science fiction. By undertaking such research, we can gain a deeper understanding of the mysteries of the universe and expand our knowledge of the possibilities that exist beyond our planet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 520g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 155 x 235 x 22 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031343971\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2023\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Karl Svozil","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44523016978682,"sku":"9783031343971","price":20.81,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1692980444968_book.jpg?v=1693206503","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/ufos-unidentified-aerial-phenomena-observations-explanations-and-speculations-9783031343971","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
