French UFO Archive Available On Web

AP - France puts secret UFO archive on Web

PARIS - The saucer-shaped object is said to have touched down in the south of France and then zoomed off. It left behind scorch marks and that haunting age-old question: Are we alone? This is just one of the cases from France's secret "X-Files" — some 100,000 documents on supposed UFOs and sightings of other unexplained phenomena that the French space agency is publishing on the Internet.

France is the first country to put its entire weird sightings archive online, said Jacques Patenet, who heads the space agency's UFO cell — the Group for Study and Information on Unidentified Aerospace Phenomena.

The web address should be http://www.cnes.fr but the website seems to be overloaded at the moment and I can’t check it out.

UPDATE - March 28, 2007. 11:46 pm: The correct web address is: http://www.cnes-geipan.fr The site seems to be working fine now.
