one "saucer" has been reported as the result of astl'0ncmical observation,

(2) whether reported sightings are evidence that alien beings are reaching
earth.

ORTHOTENY
Cleary-Baker, John, Leys, orthotenies, and the UFOs, BU:FORA journal and
bulletin, v. 2, Summer 1967: 6-7,

hamper the real work of UFO investigators.
