DALLAS (KDAF) — July 2 is officially National UFO Day, and with 50 to 100 new sightings reported every single month across the U.S., it’s clear America’s fascination with extraterrestrials is still booming.
A new report dug deep into more than 150,000 reports from the National UFO Reporting Center (spanning five decades) and cross-referenced them with social media posts to reveal the states where you’re most likely to catch a sighting of a UFO.
Texas ranked 6th. The odds of a UFO sighting in the Lone Star State are .073%, or 1 in 1,370 people, which is higher than 44 states. A total of 21,905 UFO sightings have been reported in Texas alone.
