The Phoenix Lights: A Skeptics Discovery That We Are Not Alone

by Lynne D. Kitei

On March 13, 1997 something extra-ordinary happened in the skies over Phoenix and across Arizona. On that clear evening a parade of low flying, mile wide V-shaped formations of orbs and craft glided silently overhead, attracting the attention of at least 10,000 people. This is the detailed account of that evening and the ensuing cover up of what is now being hailed as the largest mass sighting of UFOs in modern times "but there is much more to the story."By following the journey of a respected medical professional, who moved from skepticism to belief while meticulously investigating the topic for thirteen years since the event, the reader takes a wide-ranging tour of UFO history, from primitive cave paintings to 21st century reports. Extensive image analysis combined with the testimony of a variety of well-known figures, including past presidents and astronauts, such as Dr. Edgar Mitchell, make a compelling case that these anomalous phenomena have been visiting us for millennia.This revised and expanded version of the bestselling 2004 edition shares the latest UFO developments and sightings, in addition to a convincing connection between all Unexplained Phenomena -- what the author calls UPs. There is also recent testimony from eyewitnesses, a 911 Phoenix police operator, as well as commercial and military pilots. In addition, former AZ governor, Fife Symington, who mocked the sighting at a press conference in 1997, now admits publicly that he witnessed the event and what he saw was "otherworldly."Most riveting, is new, persuasive evidence -- revealed for the first time -- which takes a giant step forward in supporting the reality that we are not alone!

Reviews

[Patricia Fischer · Rating 2 out of 5]

This is a documentary type of book, so it was dry reading.

[Pat Rolston · Rating 4 out of 5]

We recently moved to Phoenix and I had heard of this phenomenon and am thrilled to have found this excellent book on the subject at a local Half Price Bookstore. This book was written by a local doctor recounting her experiences not only with the Phoenix Lights, but also personal encounters by her husband and family in their Paradise Valley home. This isn’t a person looking for publicity and quite the contrary stayed anonymous for as long as possible. Once the need to go public was required to tell her story effectively she relented.

Her story is compelling and dove tails with the unassailable UAP incident witnessed by tens of thousands of Arizonans March 13th, 1997. This is one of the most documented UFO mass sightings in history. Dr Kitel provides a well written account of the broader sightings over Phoenix’s South Mountain while discussing their family’s up close encounters at their home.

Do read the book if you can find it and make your own decisions. There is only one troubling aspect and it is the doctor’s naïveté regarding the lights witnessed at her home. There are a spectrum of outcomes involving UFO close encounters from very hazardous to your health to transcendent spiritual experiences. She is clearly in the positive spectrum, but it would be helpful if she noted the opposite can and does occur. There is a responsibly she has as a very accomplished doctor to reflect on this issue in my opinion.

Great book that opens your eyes to the possibility we might not be alone.

DNF after 36% completion. Witness accounts after witness accounts, bored me out of my mind.

[Michela Derry · Rating 2 out of 5]

nonostante l'argomento indubbiamente interessantissimo, il libro non è scritto così bene

RE: _The Phoenix Lights_ (2004)

I did not read this book, but instead I streamed the Netflix DVD based on the book:
"The Phoenix Lights" (2005)

It's always interesting to speculate about UFO's. This film makes a convincing argument that they are a phenomenon which should be further investigated.

This is not the genre of book that I would normally read, but I saw it on my husband's dresser and I was looking for something to read so I started it. So far it's been pretty interesting-I'll give you a better idea of how I liked it when I'm finished!

A very good book of events that you can not explain.

[Ceci Perez · Rating 3 out of 5]

Good book on the subject. I've been intrigued by this series of sightings for years. The book takes an interesting and unexpected delve into spirituality and the afterlife. All in all, a good book.
