Produktbeschreibung

Anomaly:A Scientific Exploration of the UFO Phenomenon reveals new results derived from radar, optical sensors, and scientific instruments, rather than speculating on unreliable eyewitness testimony. This scientific approach provides the reader with clear and reliable answers, something that is desperately needed in the murky field of UFOs.
