Do aliens and UFOs exist, or are they just a figment of the imagination of deluded fools? The answer to that will usually depend on personal experiences of the people who either support or oppose this issue. For one resident of Miami Beach, Florida however, the existence of UFOs is very much undisputed.

This resident claims to have had a sighting of a UFO at 1.40 PM on November 2, 2012, a day that may forever remain in his memory. The witness, who shall remain unnamed, was in the kitchen when he noticed a bright light. Being quite a curious person, the witness claims that he grabbed his camera and ‘took pictures of the object’. After being observed for ten minutes, the stationary object then dived into the water.

The Miami resident recalls no such similar object in his living memory, a fact that is supported in his own simple words, ‘I have never seen anything like this before’. While many people may be tempted to dismiss this observation, it is important to note that it was daytime. The witness is adamant that he had a ‘clear view of the object’.

There have been plenty of reports regarding several UFOs and alien sightings as well as abductions in many areas of the world.2012, if the witness accounts are anything to go by, has been a busy one for UFOlogists.. MUFON, the Mutual UFO Network, collects reports of sightings and strange occurrences, which they then make available to the public to keep them informed.  MUFON has received a record number of reports this year.

As far as UFOs are concerned, there are two schools of thought and each is deeply entrenched in its support base. For UFOlogists, aliens and UFOs are things that exist and we need to find out a way to coexist with the idea. Many UFOlogists besides MUFON have collected data of many witness sightings and accounts, in order to bring to the attention of the world the existence of things beyond our understanding.

The second school of thought belongs to the sceptics. Sceptics include scientists, and everyone else who is opposed to idea of the existence of aliens and alien UFOs. This school of thought also belongs to people who will always have an explanation, mostly scientific, of such sightings and events. Sceptics find the idea of aliens existing not only farfetched, but even a source of amusement.

Some scientific explanations can be given for such sightings of what people may consider UFOs. This however, is not always the case since not everything has a plausible explanation. For this Miami resident however, no scientific explanation is necessary.  He concurs with MUFON’s apparent explanation that this was an alien craft, probably entering an underwater station... And he has the pictures to prove it.
