When it comes to unidentified flying objects, most believers have seen at least something unknown in the day or night sky. While many just go on with life curious as to what may have been in the sky, others want to know more about Close Encounters UFOS. Whether through ongoing research, or setting up a satellite like in the movie Contact, it is clear that interest in this aspect of the paranormal has only grown over time.
A book related to unidentified flying objects, written by J. Allen Hynek is believed to have been largely responsible for the huge interest of close encounters since it was released in 1972. In the book, a close encounter is described by an individual whom witnesses having seen some type of UFO. Regardless of such sightings, UFOs remain an aspect of the paranormal along with demons, ghosts and spirits.
While still classified as an aspect of the paranormal, research and science related to UFOs and alien life is also at an all time high. At the same time, there still remains skepticism among researchers and scientists. One reason this is the case, is because most often sightings are logged as being nothing more than discs of daylight, radar visuals or nocturnal lights without further research.
The scale which was used in the film, Close Encounters Of The Third Kind, released in 1977, was created by Hynek. Most often, when looking to research a possible sighting, people turn to Hynek's book with regards to verifying an official sighting. Whereas, if there are other factors with regards to abductions, communications or tests, the scale often makes confirmation that much easier.
The six levels are encounters of the first kind in which the craft has radar confirmation. In most cases, these are more reputable reports showing that the objects are real. While this is the case, it should be noted that radar propagation can also be less than reliable.
On the first scale, a craft has provided some type of radar movement and confirmation. In almost all cases, there was confirmation of a blip on radar. At the same time, it should be noted that radar at the time had been known for propagation and reliability issues. Like HAMM radios, which were quite popular at one time, radar was still a new technology and scanners had issues with identifying operators and locations on an ongoing basis.
The second scale involves a close encounter which provides that some type of interaction took place. Most often, reports related to equipment malfunction, electronic disturbances or animals presenting strange and unusual behavior fall into this category. It is most likely this category which has kept Ufology, ghosts and spirits as being aspects of the paranormal.
The third scale includes some type of animation between UFO occupants and humankind. Whether that be androids, humanoids or robots which were pilots or passengers of a vessel. Whereas, the fourth scale represents evidence of the abduction of a human or other entity by a UFO or occupants. While humans are often noted for initiating communication with other species, abductions, experiments and tests are often initiated by aliens and are rarely of a consensual nature.
