Breaking News: No 'valid' UFO sightings in city since 1999

The last 280 UFO sightings in Shanghai and its surround areas -- including one in Baoshan on Oct. 31 -- have all been proven false, says to a report in the Labor Daily (via Shanghai Daily). But "acknowledged" UFOs did indeed hover over our city in 1987, 1990, 1991 and 1999. This is all according to Wu Jialu, a director with the Shanghai's newly established UFO Research Center:

They were acknowledged as UFOs as no physics theory could explain their actions in the air, Wu said.

The center, a non-government organization, has videos and recordings of the four UFO incidents and reports from thousands of witnesses. "They were not performances or illusions," Wu said.

Wu said he could still clearly recall the flying object he saw seven years ago, which were moving in a way that couldn't be explained by aviation technologies.

"It was visible for about 10 minutes," Wu said.

We wonder if there would be more UFO sightings if we could actually see the sky more than six-and-a-half weeks out of the year.
