Close encounters

On July 2nd avid watchers of the skies celebrate World UFO Day  the

anniversary of the supposed crash of a flying saucer near Roswell in

1947. Helpfully, the National UFO Reporting Centre, a non-profit, has

catalogued almost 90,000 reported sightings of UFOs, mostly in America,

since 1974.

It turns out that aliens are considerate. They seldom disturb earthlings

during working hours. Rather, they tend to arrive in the evening,

especially on Fridays, when folks are sitting on the front porch nursing

their fourth beer, the better to appreciate flashing lights in the heavens.

The state aliens like best is Washington – especially the thinly populated

northern part. Other popular destinations are also near the Canadian

border, where the Northern lights are sometimes visible. UFOs tend to

shun big cities, where there are lots of other lights. They also avoid

daylight hours, when people might think they were just aeroplanes.

Wat wordt duidelijk uit de tekst?
Je hebt de grootste kans om een ‘vliegende schotel’ te zien als je
