World UFO Day (UFO Day)
Worldwide, July 2 is celebrated as the Day of UFO (World UFO Day) or the Day of the ufologist. This holiday is dedicated to those who study phenomena that have no logical explanation, and objects to which extraterrestrial origin is attributed. The term "ufology" comes from the abbreviation UFO (Unidentified Flying Object).
The choice of date for the international holiday is due to the fact that at the end of June or early July 1947, a strange object fell in the desert near the town of Roswell in the US state of New Mexico. Many are sure that there was a "flying saucer" with aliens.
Since the US intelligence services have classified all the materials of this case, it is now difficult to confirm or disprove the hypothesis. However, the event received a wide public response, it was from the "Roswell UFO Incident" that the history of ufology began. And the earthlings were divided into two camps: those who believe in the existence of brothers in the mind, and those who doubt it.
The scientific community has not yet recognized Ufology as a science. Nevertheless, in many countries of the world there are large organizations and centers of ufological research, where highly respected scientists work. Conventionally, ufologists can also be divided into two camps: those who seek evidence of an extraterrestrial presence on our planet, and those who seek an explanation for these mysterious phenomena, trying to expand the boundaries of modern science.
Despite the absence of direct evidence of the fall of the UFO in Roswell, annually for the holiday in early July more than 200 thousand people come to the city. At this time, a festival is organized here, during which seminars, lectures, special expositions and a costume parade of "aliens" are held.
On the days of the festival in Roswell, there is a peak of tourist activity: hotels do not have vacant seats, souvenirs with alien symbols are sold out. Guests are shown at once four places of wreck of a flying saucer in the vicinity of the city. In general, the "UFO industry" annually brings the economy of the city about 5.2 million dollars in profit.
The International Day of the Sports Journalist has been celebrated since 1995 on the initiative of the International Sports Press Association.
The date for the holiday is not accidental: in 1924 the International Sports Press Association (AIPS) was formed in Paris, which now unites about a hundred and fifty national unions of journalists. It happened on July 2, and this day became the date for this international holiday.
On the International Day of the Sports Journalist, the AIPS and the national associations of sports journalists hold solemn meetings. In many countries, this day the best media representatives in the field of sports are awarded.
On July 2, a number of publishing houses hold special sports events where journalists, not only in word but in deed, can prove their adherence to the promotion of physical culture, sports and a healthy lifestyle.
