| Paul Kimball: “A UFO
mystery is still a
mystery.” |
By Dean

The Daily News
Paul Kimball says the truth
can be stranger than fiction - especially when
it comes to unidentified flying
objects.
"I like mysteries," said the
Halifax filmmaker, who is working on a
documentary chronicling the top 10 sighting of
flying saucers. "A UFO mystery is still a
mystery."
Kimball, whose Redstar Film and
Television Productions has made a number of
documentaries for the Space channel, thought it
would be fun to marry serious UFO case studies
with a non-serious top ten list.
"Hey,
everyone loves a wacky top 10 list," he said
about Best
Evidence: Top 10 UFO Cases, which were
selected by some of the leading UFO experts in
North America.
The hour-long documentary
includes cases from the United States, Canada,
Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and
Germany.
While the documentary airs later
in the season Kimball will present five of the
cases at a talk he'll give tomorrow at St.
Mary's University. It is part of a day-long
symposium attended by UFOlogists and space
historians from around the world.
Kimball
said people might be in for a surprise when they
watch the program, especially those who think
the UFO phenomenon started in Roswell, New
Mexico in 1947. That case involves the reported
recovery of a flying saucer and aliens near the
desert town.
"These cases have been with us for
an awful lot longer than that, just described in
different ways," he said. "The German case is
from 1561."
