An objective review of major hypotheses on origin of UFOs leads author to
conclude that (1) all sightings cannot lJe attributed to conventional causes;
(2) existence of alien intelligence must be considered; (3) extreme caution must
be used in developing lattel' hypothesis because of phenomenon's complexity.

Taking into consider:..tion all enumerated characteristics uf UFOs, the
probability is sugge~t.ed that they represent hitherto unknown type of animal
life indigenous to e; ri.h's ionosphere. Their bodies are postulated as being
hollow, composed of a minimum of dense matter, and charged with electricity.
It is also suggested that these creatures could be something like a "missing
link" between organic and inorganic life and that this is the reason they
give a machine-like impression.
