Extraterrestrial Evidence “Get the smallest casket you can find,” Walter Houte said on July 8, 1947 through the phone, after seeing a remarkable sight (1947 Roswell). Houte worked at the Roswell Air Base and was called to a sighting where there had been a wreck. Pieces of metal were found everywhere, scattered about, and at one point it was recorded that there had been a piece so thin that it was the thickness of a cigarette foil, but no matter how hard anyone tried to bend it, it would not move (What Really Happened). Over the course of many decades there have been over a hundred reportings of alien sightings. Everyone has the right to their own opinion, but aliens could in fact exist.

Barney was especially aware of this, and it makes sense that as the Hills were aliens in their marriage status, they could have hallucinated other aliens coming for them. The star map that Betty provides under hypnosis is not a match to maps made by scientists and astrologers. In the late 1960s, the star map looked like a close match because new technology was not yet developed to see the stars more intensely. In 2008 technological advances were made that proved Betty’s map to be vaguely close, but not the same anymore (The Truth). With the facts that the Hills provide doubt and that the star map is not a match, the Betty and Barney Hill abduction simply can not have enough facts to be deemed
