Description

"The truth about flying saucers examines from a scientific point of view the most puzzling phenomenon of our day. Do flying saucers exist? There is a ninety per cent certainty that the answer is yes, says Aimé Michel, author of this fascinating book. The material on which he bases his findings, and which he has taken several years to collect and examine, consists of the observations made by experts and technicians. Not only does he conclude that there is little doubt of the existence of flying saucers - M. Michel also demonstrates that there is a sixty per cent certainty that they come from a planet vastly different from our own." -- Provided by publisher.
