While one of the most famous shows based in Washington state is "Fraiser" - a Seattle-based comedy about psychiatrist Fraiser Crane - perhaps it should have been the "X-Files" instead.
According to Satellite Internet, Washington is the second-most active state regarding UFO sightings. There have been 90 reported UFO sightings per 100,000 residents in Washington, second only to Vermont, with 92 sightings per 100,000 people.
A UFO, or unidentified flying object, refers to any object or phenomenon observed in the sky that cannot be readily identified as a known aircraft, natural phenomenon or man-made object.
