Astronomer Debunks UFO Sightings
At a press conference, astronomer Dr. J. Allen Hynek applies critical thinking to the alleged UFO sightings in Dexter, Ann Arbor, and Hillsdale, Michigan, stating the mysterious lights were the result of marsh gas (swamp gas). He further states that a picture taken of the alleged sighting shows instead of Venus and the Moon. Hynek's debunking of the sightings as swamp gas became a standard response for UFO sightings.
