When people saw these reports, things they once dismissed as mundane they now perceived as UFOs. With more sightings publicized, people become more likely to report their own experiences, as they were no longer worried about being labeled as "weird.
Whatever the reason, by mid-summer, UFO sightings had rocketed excuse the pun. Malcolm Robinson, the founder member of Strange Phenomena Investigations, told the normally staid Daily Telegraph, "Something very bizarre is happening in the skies over the UK.
