Maine finished just ahead of neighboring New Hampshire, while the statewide total reflects reports from across the state rather than any single hotspot. A UFO report does not prove alien activity, as the crowdsourced accounts may include misidentified aircraft, satellites, weather balloons or astronomical events.

Maine’s rate of reported UFO sightings was more than twice the national average in this analysis. What are your thoughts on this? We’d love to hear from you!
