In the late 1940s and 1950s some theorists thought flying saucers might be
|
||
|
|
space animals. The first to suggest this idea, however, was Charles Fort, in
|
||
|
|
his 1931 book Lo! where he speculated that unknown objects in the sky could be
|
||
|
|
"living things that occasionally come from somewhere else." A few days after
|
||
|
|
Kenneth Arnold's sighting on June 24, 1947, John Philip Bessor wrote the Air
|
||
|
|
Force to tell it what the flying discs were: A "form of space animal"
|
||
|
|
propelled by "telekinetic energy." These creatures might be carnivorous. "Many
|
||
|
|
falls of flesh and blood from the sky in times past," he declared, could be
|
||
|
|
the leftover remains of unfortunate persons eaten by hungry UFOs. In 1955
|
||
|
|
Countess Zoe Wassilko-Serecki theorized that UFOs were "vast, luminous
|
||
|
|
bladders of colloidal silicones" that feed on electrical energy. California
|
||
|
|
Trevor James Constable claimed to have photographed these "critters," as he
|
||
|
|
called them, on infrared film.
