UFOs in the Global TimesPosted by Joel Martinsen on Thursday, December 17, 2009 at 7:00 PM
The Chinese-language Global Times leads with a story about the uncertainties surrounding the final 48 hours of the Copenhagen climate talks, but a headline in the bottom right-hand box may be of more practical interest: Humanity Still Curious about UFOs. The full-page story was inspired by the closure of the UK Ministry of Defence's UFO investigation unit. After summarizing UFO research operations in various countries, the article concludes with a brief mention of sightings in China and the fundamental significance of UFO research: On the 16th, Wang Sichao of the Purple Mountain Observatory analyzed for the Global Times the suspension of the MoD UFO program. He said that one reason was the fact that observation is difficult: UFOs arrive unexpectedly, float for a bit, and disappear, usually staying less than twenty minutes. By the time experts can set up observation equipment, the UFO has already disappeared. Another issue is that UFOs have never endangered the UK's national defense system. The English-language Global Times published its own UFO-related article in November, which led off by quoting remarks from a professor of physics at Yunnan University:
The newspaper continues in the same arch tone as it speaks to an ace UFO spotter who made a correct prediction back in 1981, a man who has seen six UFOs, and the inventor of an anti-gravity device. Links and Sources

Comments on UFOs in the Global Times
I would not mind knowing who the inventor of the Anti-Gravity device is and whether it works or not?
