Chapter 4 Question # 2


Edward Codon believes that UFO’s do not exists He concludes that there has been no scientific knowledge gained from the twenty-one year study of UFOS. He also supports his argument by stating that there is proof of the “thing” in the sky being something else but not the UFO, and that the reason we don’t study more about the UFO is because scientists have better progression to make in science rather than of something that doesn’t exist. The second scientist, J. Allen Hynek, believes that there is a possibility that UFO’s exist. The evidence used is the reported sightings of the UFO by people.  Additionally, he believes that to make some progress, we need more data to make the final call. The last scientist Royston Paynter is unsure whether UFO’s are real or unreal. He argues that we should have physical evidence, which supports the belief that UFO’s are real and that aliens are smart enough to not leave evidence, if they were in fact real. I believe that Paynter has the best argument because he actually looks at it from both sides and proves that there is no direct legitimate evidence to prove either side of argument.
