UFO Hunters

Experts in "UFOlogy" scrutinize accounts of encounters with unidentified flying objects and the evidence surrounding those accounts to uncover the actual facts and, ultimately, the answer to the big question: Are we alone in the universe? The UFO Hunters include Bill Birnes, publisher of UFO Magazine, and Pat Uskert, who witnessed a strange metallic object floating over Venice, Calif., in 2004 that inspired him to become a UFO researcher and investigative journalist.
