Hopkinsville Goblins Case, Kelly Green Men Case) was a claimed close encounter with extraterrestrial beings in 1955 near Kelly and Hopkinsville in Christian County, Kentucky, United States. UFOlogists regard it as one of the most significant and well-documented cases in the history of UFO incidents, while skeptics say the reports were due to "the effects of excitement" and misidentification of natural phenomena such as meteors and owls. The United States Air Force classified the alleged incident as a hoax in the Project Blue Book files.The Kelly-Hopkinsville sighting is at the origin of the popularization of the words "little green men" (prior to this sighting, flying saucer occupants were called "little men"; "little green men" were limited to the science-fiction culture, in particular in Mack Reynolds' The Case of the Little Green Men (1951) and in Fredric Brown's Martians Go Home (1955). But the day following the sighting, the local reporters started to call the creatures "little green men" and the words were soon reproduced in many newspapers, quoted on the radio, and translated into other languages).To Watch Live:Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/3beardspodcast/Youtube: https://youtube.com/c/3BeardsPodcastOr download the podcast on your favorite podcast platform/ apphttps://feeds.buzzsprout.com/742853.rssSupport the show and buy some gear:https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/79747446Adopt a beard:Patreon.com/3beardspodcast Support the show
