Three weeks ago an event occurred in Stephenville Texas that to some was the proof they had waited for all their lives. Indeed UFO’s were spotted. Excitement bubbled all around this small town, students made T-shirts with the slogan ‘Stephenville: The new Roswell’ and the media obviously flooded in. At the time of the sighting spokespeople from the Air Force claimed that there had been no jets in the area and one man even speculated that it was an ‘illusion’ cast by commercial planes and the sun reflecting off them.

But now more than three weeks later they have eaten their words. As of last Wednesday the Air Force claims that they were mistaken and that 10 F-16 fighter jets were in fact training above Stephenville that night! Conspiracy theorists have claimed that this is all an attempt by the government to cover up the presence of the UFO’s and they say that their claims makes it more obvious that what they had seen were indeed UFO’s. This may be another attempt to convince ourselves that there is life elsewhere but you have to say it is a little bit fishy!
