UFO sightings plummet across UK as we're all too 'distracted' looking on our phones

UFO sightings have plummeted across Britain - because people are too glued to their mobile phones. Having previously been bombarded with hundreds of 999 calls over flying saucers, a police probe suggests UFO reports have dried up in the past year.
Some forces - like Cheshire and Gwent - revealed they had no record of any close encounters so far in 2025. It is a far cry from the galactic goggling in the 80s and 90s, when the likes of The X Files had Brits scouring the stars for little green men.
However, Britain's leading UFO investigator thinks we are still being visited by extraterrestrials - just that we've stopped noticing.
Russ Kellett, from Yorkshire, who has been abducted dozens of times, said: "There are plenty of aliens and UFOs out there, but people are too distracted to notice.
"People are too busy looking down to see what is above us. There have always been highs and lows with UFO reports - I'm currently looking at a strange report of a flying saucer landing in Scarborough a few years back - so the truth is out there.
"But the only way we will ever find it is by watching the skies - not social media."
The Daily Star Sunday's exclusive findings follow Freedom of Information requests to forces across the UK, which previously unearthed hundreds of reports - ranging from mysterious flashing lights to one person in Belfast beamed aboard a UFO while taking a ciggie break.
Yet reports have dried up; Even in Wiltshire - the UK's crop circle capital - cops confirmed they had no record of any spooky sightings so far this year.
However, some forces did disclose details, including one caller in Northampton who had been beamed aboard a UFO - then kidnapped by bigfoot.
