Turn on the TV, go to the cinema, Open a newspaper or flip through web pages. You will find, that the term "UFO" is often used not in connection with the term "phenomenon", and with such words as "state", "Politics", "Energy", etc..
But the most decisive argument in favor of the correctness of my thoughts may be a strange upward trend - around the globe each year grows stronger belief, that aliens exist and are sure to attend the Earth, pursuing their own selfish goals some! At the, that it occurs spontaneously, for some reason I believe it is very weak.
The results of opinion polls on the subject from one year to shock.
In 2011 by sociologists, "Levada Center" Russians surveyed and calculated: 56% inhabitants of the country admitted, they believe in the existence of extraterrestrial life! The most common belief in aliens admitted Housewives (63 percent), entrepreneurs (56 percent), and residents of Russia under 25 years (61%) and citizens with higher education (61%).
According to sociologists, which cites the "Interfax", distribution of those, who does not doubt the existence of vnezemlyan, was non-uniform by territory. Most who believe in extraterrestrial life in the Ural and Siberian districts (on 71 percent) in Moscow (61 percent).
Opinion poll in Britain 2008 year (were interviewed 3000 inhabitants of the kingdom) showed, that more people believe in the existence of aliens, ghosts and UFOs (58%), than those, who believe in God (54%). Nay, about 25% Britons believe, that they had experienced personally, with the various phenomena of extraterrestrial origin. At the same time 35% said, conclusively that believe in aliens.
Poll Results, conducted in 2001 in Germany have shown: believe in aliens especially young and educated men. So, among, with higher education, 61,4 percent believe, that outside the earth there is life; among the uneducated — only 31,7 percent. Among people aged 50 years — only 41,6 percent of "believers"; People under the age of fifty aliens often take at least as a "fact of consciousness" (55,6 percent). Among men, those — 54,5 percent, and among women — 45,3 percent.
Social Survey, carried out by transnational marketing «Synovate» China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia and Korea, also showed, that people in Asia believe in aliens at least in Europe. "They firmly believe, that we are not alone in the universe, more than six people from 10 (64%) in, where there was a poll, believe, that intelligent life exists on other planets, — said the director of «Synovate» Scott Lee. — Personal experience with something alien, too, was higher than expected: 10% Asians believe, they saw a UFO and a 3% — that they have seen aliens from another planet. If we extrapolate these figures to the huge population of, where there was a poll, is more 250 millions of sightings and more 80 million contacts with aliens ".
Chinese (81%) and residents of Hong Kong (70%) more inclined to believe in extraterrestrial life, Although sightings are more frequent in India (13%) and Korea (10%), and China 9% observation is in third place.
Aliens, surely, more frequently planted in Indonesia, where 6% reswhereentov believe, that met with the aliens, and Korea, where 8% residents between the ages of 50 to 64 years is considered, that entered with them into direct contact (!).
No less shocking survey data in Canada 1996 year: 78% Canadians believe, that elsewhere in the universe there is life; 57,5% believe, that the government or the military to hide from them the truth about UFOs; 9,6% have seen it, that was taken for UFOs, and only 12,5% of them reported it to the authorities and ufologists; 13,3% answered "yes" to question: "Did anyone in your family UFOs, except you?».
Indicative of public opinion polls on this subject in the U.S.. Even with the 1947 on 1978 Year five times Gallup conducted a sociological study of UFOs. Starting with 1947 year 9/10 U.S. population in one way or another have been heard about flying saucers; later this figure had risen to 96 percent! But if the 1950 year only 5% respondents were convinced, that a UFO - it is not idle inventions of newsmen (Comet, Stars and stuff), that 16 years later, those in the United States was already 46%. And in 1978 year - almost three-fifths of the adult population! In 1973 year 11% Americans claimed, that they had seen a UFO (in 1997 was the question "Have you seen a UFO?"Answered" yes " 7% Americans (of them 1% UFO seen in more than two times) - Figures are almost the same at intervals of 24 year!).
