Washington, Feb 19 - The Department of the Air Force stated to day that an investigation has been ordered into reports from several members of the crews of two United States bombers that they saw objects resembling "flying saucers" while on mission over Korea. This is the first time for several months that such objects have been prominently in the news, the Air Force having earlier discounted reports of similar phenomena said to have been seen in the United States.
The objects reported over Korea are described as globe shaped, bright orange in colour, and emitting occasional flashes of bluish light.
