Distribution of observations in time Since 1951, a certain periodicity has been recorded in the large-scale appearance of the phenomena, with clearly marked peaks in.1954, 1964, 1967 and 1975. How- ew~r, scientific reseax·chers have not yet been able to find any partic~ular £Jpatial occurrence in the universe that corresponds to this "pe::-iodicity". Only one piece of data could be put forward by Mr Poher! ~ere seems to exist a correlation between UFO observations and temporary abnormal fluctuations in the earth's magnetic field. At the overall level of the phenomenon, only the following points can therefore be put .forward: ... Observations canno~ be suspect since in more than 8~ of cases, they can be .
