In fact, in Europe, operating only one state team of hunters on UFOs based in France Space Agency in Toulouse. British and Danish offices were closed for years due to lack of funds. France has the largest space center in Europe, as the rest of the '60s when President Charles de Gaulle sought to keep the independence of their country on American rockets and satellites.

The project has four national officers and ten volunteers, which covers all travel costs and research reports. Team name is GEIPAN which is an abbreviation of the French Groupe d'Etudes et d'Information sur les phénomènes Aérospatiaux non identifies (Group for Research and gather information about the unidentified air and space phenomena).

GEIPAN every day on average receives two alert, and his official site collects about 30,000 visits per month. For each tip meets a report of 11 pages. The key idea behind them is to show in detail each case vision, but also to exclude possible jokes and pranks.

For example, if someone told you he saw lights in the sky, team members will check whether the specified time specified part of the sky flew an aircraft, whether civilian or military. Head GEIPAN Xavier Passot says that their most reports coming from people who smoke in front of cafes and their homes and while watching the sky.

What they have discovered so far?

The BBC's Chris Bockman who visited the center, says that his Passot said that to this day has never concealed any alarm, or at least in their case, there is no room for any conspiracy theory.

In fact, he says, geipanovci have so far found a logical earthly explanations for almost all vision; few of them remained unresolved. Interestingly, the most common cause for alarm release of Chinese lanterns at night parties. That is why the first response team members to call the local city authorities in order to check whether at the time maintained what a wedding.

In addition to lanterns UFOs good acting and balloons and kites. In a similar category also includes pieces of space junk or meteorites from falls leave unusual traces of light.

But the 'X-Files' collected since the 70s, there are about 400 that were never explained. Among them shines allegedly landing saucer near Trans-en-Provence in 1981. In this case, researchers have found some traces of landing on the ground, and there were plenty of witnesses.

When all this is taken into account, it can be asked whether it makes sense to spend state money to hunt for UFOs. One possible positive answer is that if anything the French have fewer problems with conspiracy theories, but, for example, Americans.

Few people today question the idea that somewhere in the vast expanse of space there is life. But another question is whether we believe that some government conspired with aliens to rule the masses and to this end exchanged secret advanced technology or that the aliens have already infiltrated into the earthly government structure.
