9 Historical Moments That Prove Aliens Have Visited Earth

4. The Battle Of Los Angeles

On the night of February 24th 1942, air raid sirens were sounded and a complete blackout was ordered across Los Angeles as an unknown enemy approached the city from across the pacific ocean. The threat was at first believed to be enemy bombers flying from Japan but things soon took a weird turn. Citizens reported seeing a strange object floating in the sky above the city and at approximately 3am, the 37th Coast Artillery Brigade opened fire, targeting the unidentified craft with anti-aircraft missiles. The battle with the U.F.O. last for several hours with over 1,400 shells being fired before the all clear was sounded at 7.12am.

The following day, the press was filled with accounts of the battle with photographs of the craft caught in the militaries searchlights appearing in the Los Angeles Times. The United Stated released an official statement saying that there had been no enemy craft in the sky and that the event was simply a false alarm. Exactly what, if anything, was in the sky that night remains a mystery.

However, the amount of witnesses and photographs that exist of the battle lead UFOlogists to cite that the official response was a coverup and that the Battle of Los Angeles proves that alien beings have visited Earth.
