Hundreds of alleged Bigfoot and UFO sightings have hit headlines since the mid-20th century, though none are backed by irrefutable proof.

And while scientists have widely denounced the observations as nonsense, reports have continued to pour in.

The two sighting maps were uploaded to GoogleMyMaps, which lets users put together custom maps and share them on the web.

The first sighting map, crafted by US conspiracy group The Crypto Crew, marks Bigfoot, UFO and other “odd sightings”.

“The Pins marking the locations may not be spot on but are very close in most cases, but some are spot on,” the map’s description reads.

Clicking on a location brings up more information about it, such as the date and nature of the reported sighting.

In total, the map has dozens of alleged encounters to scan through, including famous sightings in California and New York State.

The second user-generated map, put together by an anonymous user, focuses on reported UFO sightings across the globe.

The Rendlesham Forest incident: Britain’s most famous UFO sighting

The Rendlesham Forest incident took place in December 1980 over a series of at least two nights.On December 26, 1980, military personnel at the twin bases of RAF Bentwaters and RAF Woodbridge in Suffolk saw a strange light in Rendlesham Forest, which lies between the two bases.Three men were sent out to investigate where two of them encountered a small, triangularshaped craft.One man, Jim Penniston, got close enough to touch the side of the object.He and another of the airmen present, John Burroughs, made sketches of the craft for witness statements.Two nights later Deputy Base Commander, Lieutenant Colonel Charles Halt and his team then encountered the UFO.He said later: “Here I am, a senior official who routinely denies this sort of thing and diligently works to debunk them, and I’m involved in the middle of something I can’t explain.”
Despite an MOD investigation the Rendlesham Forest incident remains unexplained.
That includes UK “encounters” with UFOs, such as the 1974 sighting by hikers in Llandrillo, Wales.

Described as a bang and a flash of white light, the incident, dubbed the “Welsh Roswell” was dismissed as an earthquake and a meteor combining.

Fortunately, most scientists agree that nearly all alien “encounters” can be explained by mistaken identity.

Many sightings are simply the result of asteroids burning up in our atmosphere, leaving a bright streak across the sky, or the dull flashing glow of a distant satellite.

We’re much more likely to find alien life in the habitable zone of a distant planet than we are here on Earth.

Even then, it’s far more likely we’ll find tiny microbes than little green men driving wacky spaceships.
