The Ann Arbor Swamp Gas Sightings Of 1966
In Exhibit 1966, Frank Mannor of Dexter, Michigan and his son saw and reported a amusing object composed over a realm on their farm.At about the especially time, a group of Hillsdale Theoretical students after that saw a amusing object all-embracing their dorm windows.Dexter, Michigan is about 10 miles northwest of Ann Arbor, and was (and is) a lake area.Hillsdale, Michigan is about 70 miles southwest of Dexter.J. Allen Hynek, at a press conference about the sightings, suggested the sightings were of downpour gas, and the rest is history, as numerous of you advise.Here's a speak of the Hillsdale paper about the Mannor sighting. The paper misspelled Mr. Mannor's name: Firm [sic].Chance magazine, as was its won't of the time, scoffed at the sightings:And at hand are drawings by the mother of 12 year-old Susan Merrill of Hillsdale who after that reported seeing several flying objects that especially week:Give to was a stacks of sightings in Michigan that week of Exhibit 20th; in Detroit, Nankin and Taylor Townships, and not the same other sitting room.One RRRGroup aficionada covered the Dexter sightings for The Detroit Intelligence.The objects seen and reported by both Mannors and the Hillsdale students were not downpour gas, as J. Allen Hynek came to acknowledge at the end of the day.But what were they?Our sister blog - Forensic Ufology - movement stay poised these sightings.
