On September 19, 1961, Betty and Barney Hill were driving through rural New Hampshire, and had an odd experience that has become probably the most famous alien abduction story in the history of UFO folklore.
As it happens, they drove right past the town where SF author and Making Light blogger Jim Macdonald lives. Now, armed with a digital camera and a scientific mindset, Jim has set out to produce the definitive explanation of the Hill story, following published accounts step by step through the New Hampshire countryside.
It’s a terrific piece of work, even in an incomplete state (he’s still uploading and updating). If you’re interested in UFO kookery, you should give it a read. I’ll give you a hint: It doesn’t involve actual aliens.
