UFOs or Unidentified Flying Objects have long been a matter of great curiosity and interest for the human habitation on the Earth, particularly from June 24, 1947 when American pilot Kenneth Arnold reported sighting nine circular objects flying across his airplane's path in the skies over the state of Washington. His description of their movements as being like "saucers skipping over the water" gave birth to the term, 'flying saucer.' However, objects shaped like cigars, squares, balls, triangles, rings and hats have also been reported to have been seen in almost every country, of this huge and diverse Living Planet known as the Earth.
