British Ministry of Defence releases UFO files
A woman reported seeing a glowing, spherical object rise into the air in Norwich after meeting a man who said he came from a planet similar to Earth.
In another sighting, a triangular craft hovered then shot off at 500mph.
The third set of UFO documents to be released by the British Ministry of Defence covers the period from 1987 to 1993, BBC reports.
The UFO files, which can be downloaded from the National Archives website, are being released as part of a three-year project.
These latest documents are the first containing information written by defence intelligence staff to be made public.
UFO expert Dr David Clarke said: «So many things can be interpreted as unusual, you've got to eliminate all that noise and see what's left. I don't think there's any solid evidence that we have been visited by intelligent life but I don't think you can rule that out.»
