Kenneth Arnold is a Believer

The first highly publicized sighting was by Kenneth Arnold on June 24, 1947, which resulted in the creation of the term "flying saucer" by U.S. newspapers. Although Arnold never specifically used the term "flying saucer", he was quoted at the time saying the shape of the objects he saw was like a "saucer", "disc", or "pie-plate", and several years later added he had also said "the objects moved like saucers skipping across the water."
