Not long ago I remember someone saying that Astronaut Gorden Cooper flatly denied ever having seen a UFO. Well, last night on The History Channel as part of their "In Search of History" series, they broadcast a segment entitled "Ancient Aliens". At the end of the show is a segment with Astronaut Cooper talking about his and his fellow aviators attempts to intercept UFOs while he was stationed in Germany. He says that the UFOs were high above any altitude that they could reach and that the UFOs were flying in the same types of formations that they used but were much faster and more maneuverable than their fighter aircraft. He said the UFOs were metallic looking and looked like the aircraft that he (Cooper) and his fellow pilots were flying except that they had no wings. Although not mentioned by Cooper during the show, if I remember my sightings reports correctly, Cooper and his fellow aviators tried to intercept the UFOs many times over a period of many days. Although they could get to altitudes where they could see the UFOs, they could not get high enough to actually intercept them. At the end of the segment, Cooper states plainly that he believes in UFOs and that he believes that we are being visited by an intelligent civilization from outside our solar system. Loy
