You may see more 'UFOs and aliens' around Christmas for very bizarre explanation
Christmas may be the most wonderful time of year for some – but for others it is a time when alien life shows up, it is reported..
December sightings of what say are UFOs seem more common than they do at any other time of year, and there may be good reason for this. There is good reason for this, with fireworks and light spectacles flagged up more often than not according to UFO Reporting Centre technical director Christian Stepien. Twice a year the company sees a "slight uptick" in potential sightings, and the holiday season certainly heralds its fair share of alleged alien encounters.

There are a few reasons why people might be paying more attention: they might be off work, they’re doing family activities and things they don’t normally do, so there’s more possibilities for people to encounter things. Then of course, there’s always Santa Claus and the reindeer.
"If there is an uptick, I can understand that because there’s a lot of people out during Christmas time shopping and doing things. They might be looking up in the air so I can understand it if there is." Further research from Ufology reported a "significant" increase on Christmas Day, with 75 reported cases over 2021 alone. Chris Rutkowski, of Ufology, said: "Most were simply lights in the sky, and yes, some were of a single red light flying overhead followed by a string of others." Historic sightings around the holiday period have been reported as early as Christmas 1965.
Wally Schirra Jr., who was aboard the Gemini 6 spacecraft orbiting Earth, claims to have seen an "object" heading from north to south entering and re-entering the atmosphere. He wrote at the time: "We have an object, looks like a satellite going from north to south, probably in polar orbit. Looks like he might be going to re-enter soon [...] You just might let me pick up that thing." Fellow aviation expert Thomas Stafford said: "I see a command module and eight smaller modules in front. The pilot of the command module is wearing a red suit."

Wally and Thomas' time on the space craft and alleged extra-terrestrial sighting caused chaos in the control room, but the duo soon revealed their ruse as aviator Wally began playing Jingle Bells on his harmonica. Mr Stafford said: "Wally came up with the idea. He could play the harmonica, and we practiced two or three times before we took off, but of course we didn’t tell the guys on the ground." In the case of practical and actual sightings of UFOs during the festive season, Ron James added: "My feeling is that there’s not that there’s an actual increase in phenomenon occurring. It’s more that there’s more people in a position to see and experience things that might already be there pretty much consistently."
