An unidentified flying object or a U.F.O is the name we give to something strange in the
sky that we dont recognize. For thousands of years there have been stories about strange
objects in the sky. Until recently, however, nobody believed these stories. Some of them
sounded just too crazy to be true. If you reported seeing a flying saucer or something like
that, most people thought you are imagining things.
Recently, however, there have been many more reports of U.F.O sightings. Many of
these objects, too, have been seen by more than one person, so it is not easy to laugh at them.
