Possible Cause of Blackouts Scientists Urge New Hard Look
In Northern California two highway patrolmen saw a glowing cigar shaped craft with red and white lights drop from the sky and vanish. A panel of six scientists told Congress to fund long term studies of unexplained UFOs, considering outer space visitors, natural phenomena, or hallucinations as possibilities. The group warned many sightings defy analysis and noted timing around the 1965 Northeast power blackout with unexplained coincidences and reports of ignition failures linked to UFO activity. A Costa Rican volcano eruption forced more than 100 villagers from their homes in two villages near the Panama Canal Zone.
