On 24 June 1947 anIdaho businessman was flying his private aircraft over Mount Rainier in the state of Washington, USA, when he saw an inexplicable series of disks in the sky. He told newsmen 'they were like saucers skipping over water' and this description is the origin of the phrase 'flying saucer' which is given to phenomena known to purists as 'Unidentified Flying Objects', or UFO's. |
