History

Beginning on November 11, 1987 Gulf Breeze contractor Ed Walters reported a series of UFO sightings over a period of three weeks. Some ufologists believed the photographs that Walters purported to show a flying saucer were genuine, however others strongly suspected them to be a hoax. Press coverage given Walters claims during that time has been criticized as "uncritical" and "sensationalist".[1][2]
