Kenneth Arnold and the Birth of the Flying Saucer

 Kenneth Arnold and the Birth of the Flying Saucer


1947 was a historic year. On top of the atomic age and the Cold War knocking on the door, a man from Boise, Kenneth Arnold, saw nine strange objects in the sky and it changed the world forever. The press ate up Arnold's story, and the few weeks that followed saw a frenzy of "flying saucer" sightings including some of the most notorious UFO cases of the 20th century. Were they all just part of the mass hysteria that followed Arnold's account?

Guest Keri Pina brings her passion for the UFO phenomena to the show!
