Kenneth Arnold’s account said the motion of the formation he viewed over Mt Ranier resembled saucers skipping over water. But the objects in the formation were not saucers, exactly. They were like saucers with a big bite taken out, more of a flying wing than the classic “two plates (one inverted” clamped together” craft. But the media of the day described what he saw as “flying saucers” and suddenly everyone started seeing flying discs. Weird, right?? Sothese craft change form over time in accordance with our expectations over time. Now, fewer saucers and more triangles and tic tacs
Very true! I should have said that. Thx for inserting it.
