Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
On March 13, 1997, thousands of witnesses saw a mysterious light formation hovering over the Valley. Local residents were terrified. Was this a supersecret military craft or were we about to become victims of anal probes? Find out more at the “Alien Images: UFOs, Photography and Belief” exhibit, a visual survey of unexplained sightings from 1870 to today. “I have no problems believing that mysterious things happen in the world,” says installation curator Scott Murphy. “I just don’t think leaping to conclusions is the best thing.” Well, we could believe the “official” explanation that the lights were just military flares. Blinking flares that move in unison. Uh-huh.
