Charles Lear – The History of Flying Saucers
June 24 was the 75th anniversary of “flying saucers.” It was on that date in 1947 that Kenneth Arnold’s historic sighting put the term “flying saucer” into the public domain and UFO investigation soon followed with UFO groups and individuals looking for answers to these enigmatic sightings.
Charles Lear joins us to discuss his research of all the people involved in the mystery of the flying saucers, including some of the most fascinating cases from investigators and the witnesses – some of whom were profoundly affected.
