Die Geburt eines Mythos


Hilfe, die Außerirdischen kommen: Die Angst vor fliegenden Untertassen ging Ende der 1940er Jahre in den USA um. Ausgelöst wurde die UFO-Hysterie vor 60 Jahren. Am 24. Juni 1947 kam es zum ersten Mal zu einer "Sichtung". Der US-Hobbypilot Kenneth Arnold erblickte bei einem Flug mehrere in der Sonne glitzernde Objekte - der Mythos vom UFO und den Außerirdischen war geboren. Spekulationen über eine Invasion aus dem All machten die Runde - ein gefundenes Fressen für Hollywood in Zeiten des Kalten Krieges.

60 Years of Flying Saucers


"Flying saucer" -- the term -- was coined 60 years ago, when salesman and pilot Kenneth Arnold reported seeing nine objects flying in a "V" formation over Mount Rainier, Washington. Arnold told a reporter on June 24, 1947 that the UFOs flew erratically, fluttering and tipping their wings, like "a saucer if you skip it across water" -- and a worldwide subculture was born.

In the six decades since, flying saucers have inspired scores of movies, TV shows and a mini publishing industry. They're supposedly the source of crop circles and cattle mutilations, and they've spawned several cults and a minor religion. Fodder for government commissions, both real and imagined, the mysterious vehicles have also fed government conspiracy theorists, who believe we're being lied to.
