Three UFO cases vex association

A Danish UFO society celebrates 50 years of investigating sightings, of which three cases remain unsolved The X-Files are alive and well at Scandinavian UFO Information, an organisation for enthusiasts of unexplained sightings that recently celebrated its 50th anniversary. Sufoi...

Sufoi is unlike many UFO organisations in that it takes a serious and sceptical approach to the UFO-phenomena, according to its website. The organisation's Toke Haunstrup admits that a vast majority of sightings have less than other-worldly explanations.

'This year 50 percent of reported UFO sightings could be explained as balloons. Otherwise they are typically aircraft, shooting stars or the planets Venus and Jupiter.'

But Haunstrup says three photographed cases remain in Sufoi's archives that have been thoroughly investigated but are still marked 'unexplained'. One is a set of pictures taken in 1971 near Århus, one a photo shot at Avedøre Holme in the Copenhagen suburb of Hvidovre in 1975, and the third unexplained sighting is a several-minute long video filmed in 1996 over Odense.

So far in 2008, Sufoi has already taken over 150 calls of reported sightings.
