| Many people have asked if science would ever be | | | | Radar Evidence |
| able to prove that aliens exist. The answer is that if | | | | While photographic evidence can be somewhat |
| aliens do exist then science "should" technically be able | | | | valueless when trying to prove the existence of aliens, |
| to prove their existence. The challenge is collecting the | | | | when photographs are backed up with radar evidence |
| right kind of evidence and making sure that evidence | | | | they are given far more weight. Radar evidence |
| that is collected is done in a manner that prevents | | | | collected by the military and by airports can be used to |
| hoaxes and contamination. | | | | substantiate the sightings of UFO in airspaces around |
| Photographic Evidence | | | | the world. Radar evidence can also help to plot flight |
| One of the most common forms of evidence of alien | | | | paths and to calculate air speeds and direction |
| existence is photographic evidence. Thousands of | | | | changes. This information can be used to determine if |
| photographs have been taken of supposed aliens and | | | | the craft being tracked is conventional or if it is |
| UFOs. The problem with photographic evidence is that | | | | other-worldly. |
| it is easy for the images to be manipulated, either | | | | Medical Examinations |
| intentionally or unintentionally. This manipulation causes | | | | There are two types of medical examinations that can |
| the object in the photograph to appear to be | | | | be done to collect evidence of alien encounters. The |
| something other than what it is in reality. Photographic | | | | first is hypnosis. Hypnosis can be used to regress a |

| Trace Evidence | | | | The second medical examination that can be |
| Trace evidence is the term used to describe residues | | | | conducted is a physical medical examination. In this |
