Description: San Antonio Express June 27 1947 Original Newspaper (12 Pages) The Man Who Introduced the World to Flying SaucersKenneth Arnold saw something, said something, and ushered in the UFO-industrial complex. Before June 24, 1947, terms such as UFOs and flying saucers had not entered popular vocabulary. Then, on that afternoon 70 years ago, it all changed because of Kenneth Arnold:“Supersonic Flying Saucers Sighted by Idaho Pilot.”Arnold reported seeing near Mount Rainier nine “circular-type” objects flying in formation at more than twice the speed of sound. Though various sightings of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) were reported over hundreds of years before the mid-1940s, World War II marked the beginning of a new phase of interest. Kenneth Arnold’s historic 1947 sighting–combined with a highly publicized UFO incident that took place later that summer near Roswell, New Mexico—did more than anything else to fuel this frenzy of interest in otherworldly visitors and establish an entire new subculture known as “ufology.”Wonderful birthday gift with topical news from home and abroad including numerous photographs, stories, fashion and adverts.
