IN THIS EPISODE: Before Roswell made UFOs a household name, strange craft were already haunting our skies. In the early 1900s, from the battlefields of World War I to quiet farmlands across the globe, witnesses reported encounters with mysterious airships, glowing discs, and their otherworldly occupants. We’ll look at UFO sightings and encounters from 1900 thru 1930 – and there are a lot more than you’d expect.
