Florida Ranks Fifth in U.S. Alien Abduction Reports, Study Finds

To the point

Florida ranks fifth in the United States for alien abduction reports after analyzing more than 187,000 UFO sightings since 1974, with about 1 in 1,102 odds and roughly 20,184 Florida sightings over five decades, while Delaware tops per‑resident measures and Washington, New York, and Oregon follow, the study blending National UFO Reporting Center data with social‑media observations to map hotspots as Barack Obama and Donald Trump spark renewed UFO discussion, officials remain cautious with no evidence of extraterrestrial craft found by the Pentagon, and skeptics insist that the absence of a definitive natural explanation does not prove aliens, according to Eric Lagatta.
