2000 people in Britain from 2000 -2009 have reported alien sightings to the Ministry of Defence (MoD), while in Wigan, spaceships have reportedly been spotted in the sky on 17 different occasions.
Claims of a "dome-shaped orange ball of light" in Leigh, an "organic like a jellyfish" in Bolton, 'a grey triangle' in Stockport and many others have been reported to the MoD by residents of the areas since 2000, the Daily Express reported.
The government last year, released details of a call from pilot Roger Willis to Manchester air traffic control in 1995, where he reportedly said that his passenger plane was overtaken at high speed by 'a wedge-shaped craft with bright lights'.
