What are the 4 types of alien encounters?

Answer 1

(Reality)

1) Fictional

2) Imaginary

3) Fraudulent

4) Mistaken

(Fakery)

1) Sighting-- aliens, pink elephants, Elvis, etc.

2) Evidence-- Since anecdotes never become evidence, even in vast numbers, there is none.

3) Contact-- none known and proven to have occurred. The White House lawn is not that hard to find, so if there are aliens attempting contact, they are completely incompetent.

3) Abduction-- Also, none. To date, no one claiming abduction has sworn out a warrant for these person or persons unknown. Coincidentally, lying to the FBI is a good way to get sent to the pokey. One might logically conclude the "witnesses" know they are lying.

Or, on the less scrupulously skeptical side, see below:

----------------------------------

1) Sighting- An encounter with a UFO

2) Evidence- Where you can find clues that an alien/UFO has been to a place. Example: Crop Circles

3) Contact- When you meet an alien face to face or see them from afar.

3) Abduction- Is when some one is temporarily, or permanently, captured by an extraterrestrial being

Answer 2

There are actually nine types of contact with aliens called "close encounters."

1. Close encounter of the first kind: Sighting of one or more unidentified flying objects.
2. Close encounter of the second kind: Physical evidence of a UFO's presence.
3. Close encounter of the third kind: Sighting of an alien being in association with a UFO sighting.
4. Close encounter of the fourth kind: An abduction by alien beings or a vision associated with a UFO sighting.
5. Close encounter of the fifth kind: Voluntary and cooperative communication between humans and alien beings.
6. Close encounter of the sixth kind: An encounter with alien beings resulting in the death of a human.
7. Close encounter of the seventh kind: An encounter with an alien being resulting in a human becoming impregnated with alien DNA.
8. Close encounter of the eighth kind: Alien invasion, conquest, or colonization of Earth.
9. Close encounter of the ninth kind: An alien race makes formal contact with the human race and lifts the veil of secrecy.
