SOURCE TEST
|
||
|
||
Below are natural and man-made sources of mistaken UFO reports (IFOs).
|
||
Two human senses are usually responsible - sight (SI) and hearing (HE).
|
||
Columns for these are on the right. The error may be directly by the
|
||
witness, or an environmental factor may have caused it.
|
||
|
||
Based on the investigation, for each potential IFO factor indicate
|
||
whether a misperception of sight/hearing may be involved by marking:
|
||
L (Likely), P (Possible) or N (not possible).
|
||
|
||
SI HE
|
||
EXAMPLE (from Section B, #1,c - helicopter): (L) (P)
|
||
Comment: Reported beam of light likely from police helicopter in the
|
||
area. Gusty wind may have blocked the sound of the rotors. See comment
|
||
on wind in A, #2.
