 A Brief History of the UFO Phenomenon

The UFO phenomenon is complex and many-faceted, and may arise from many different sources.  Are UFOs alien spacecraft, hallucinations, hoaxes, or something else?  Do UFOs actually exist?  Can all UFO sightings be explained?  What do astronomers think?  The presentation will discuss these questions as well as the historical scope of the phenomenon, and will include several classic cases.
