LIFE ON OTHER PLANETS

LISTEN AND READ
UFOs are strange flying objects that some people report they
have seen in the sky and believed to be spacecraft from
another planet. Many scientists do not believe so. They say
that if people see a UFO, it might be an aircraft, a weather
balloon or a meteor. However, there is still evidence for people
to believe in the existence of UFOs.
In 1947, Kenneth Arnold, an experienced pilot in the USA,
reported that he saw nine large round objects traveling at
about 2,800 meters an hour to the left and north of Mount
Rainier.
In 1952, there were more than 1,500 UFO sightings around the
world.
