I think it's fairly obvious that some of those were made-up, but I doubt that people all around the country would have made the same correlation between a significant energy discharge and alien's visiting the planet.
I don't think it's a coincidence that in more than one instance, people claiming to have been abducted by aliens were found to have implants made of materials that when cross-referenced with numerous databases of known earth elements and substances showed no matches.
I don't think those things are coincidences. I think it's quite possible that Earth has been visited by alien life-forms.
A 1972 movie called Charriots of the Gods first pointed out UFO theory. A few years later a TV series by Leonard Nimoy featured more UFO nonsense called In Search Of, also featured were Bigfoot, the Yhetti, Wearwolves, Atlantis, and lot's of other completely baseless mythological creatures or garbage. After that Star Wars came out (which is a good thing), After that Close Encounters of the Third Kind(another good thing). Countless UFO novels, Bigfoot guest starred on episodes of The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman too. It seemed harmless enough.

UFO sitings went up 20,000 % from 1972-1979, they didn't go up after the first nuclear tests in 1945, they went up after it got put on the media because after 1972 every flickering light, airplane, good view of Venus, and weather baloon became a genuine UFO. A textbook variety of hysterical phenomenon.

Enter the computer age, most of the photographs of UFO's taken from 1950 to 1980 are proven to be fake. Frauds of the highest order like Art Bell make huge bucks from the believers. Art Bell types prey on the fact that our desire to believe is as strong as our religious beliefs, so for a while, people will produce expose's on UFO's and site government conspiracies as the cause of thier complete lack of evidence. Some UFO groups demand lots of money to make the victim privey to thier UFO discoveries as they happen. Kind of selling an advance seat on whatever happens.....geeze, con men.
