Britain’s defense intelligence agency considered the possibility of alien craft visiting Earth and asked “UFO desk officers” to monitor any potential threat from outer space, hitherto top secret documents released on Thursday show.
Thousands of pages of highly classified files document how officials in the Ministry of Defense were worried they would be accused by the public of not taking UFOs seriously enough, and how some thought there really could be someone out there. “It was important to appreciate that what is scientific ‘fact’ today may not be true tomorrow,” a defense intelligence officer warned in August 1993.
He pointed out: “It was only a few hundred years ago that ‘scientists’ believed that the Earth was the center of the universe.” He added: “It was generally agreed until early this century that the atom could not be split.”
Sightings of alleged UFOs could be explained by very strange-shaped clouds, ball lightning, or US “black” (secret project) aircraft, the unidentified official suggested.
