(United Functions and Objects) A programming language developed by John Sargeant at Manchester University, U.K.

This Internet-only Webcast premieres Monday, November 20, and rolls out over the following two days, with new parts each day through Wednesday, November 22. The entire presentation will be archived so users can view on demand.

CHRIS WALLACE'S INTERNET EXPOSE: UFO2000 will stream in three parts:

"

A recently released report from top French military and government officials suggests that the French government should begin taking questions surrounding UFOs seriously. The report says the best explanation for at least 5% of UFO sightings This is a list of UFO sightings including cases of alleged alien sightings and abductions. Some cases are popularly known, and have become folklore. Others are more obscure, and known mainly to ufologists and enthusiasts.  is "the extraterrestrial hypothesis." Wallace interviews Nick Pope, an official with the British Ministry of Defense, known as "the real Fox Mulder" from The X-Files, for his investigations into the UFO phenomenon.

Day II - The Skeptic

We have all seen videos that show UFOs, but what is real? In this part, ABCNEWS.com will stream a highly controversial video filmed in 1997, in Mexico City. The video allegedly proves that UFOs exist. Wallace discusses this video, and other evidence presented by believers in UFOs, with Dr. Michael Shermer, head of the Organization of Skeptics, who shows how easy it is to create a phony UFO video.

Day III - The Scientist

UFOs, science or science fiction? What are the actual scientific theories behind a UFO? Are there real life physics behind the phenomenon? How does it fly? How does it travel through time and space? Wallace interviews Dr. Michio Kaku, an internationally recognized authority in theoretical physics and the environment. Kaku is the author of nine books, the last two of which, Hyperspace hyperspace - /hi:'per-spays/ A memory location that is *far* away from where the program counter should be pointing, often inaccessible because it is not even mapped in.

Pope's quotes from the Webcast:

- "I am a firm believer that some UFOs are almost certainly

extraterrestrial spacecraft."

- "The one thing that we can say is that when we finally make open

contact with extraterrestrials, whatever form that contact takes,

the world is never going to be the same again."

Shermer's quotes from the Webcast:

- "I am not willing to go with the extraterrestrial hypothesis until

we actually have a spacecraft or an alien. I want to see the body."

- "When people bring so called photographic evidence or video

evidence, that's no longer evidence, particularly in this age of

Photoshop and computer video montages. Anybody could do this."

Kaku's quotes from the Webcast

- "We earthlings are too primitive right now to analyze what's on the

other side of a wormhole wormhole - back door , but this could be a way by which you

could leap across distant galaxies and perhaps even distort time

itself."

- "...if I was an alien from an advanced civilization I would say

leave them [the Earth] alone for a few thousand years. Maybe play

with them, but let's not make contact with them."

The Webcast was executive produced by Ira Rosen, executive producer for ABC News Magazine Webcasts; senior technical producer, Erik Olsen; video producer and editor, Brian Celentano; assistant producer, Chris Fennimore; and designer, Patricia O'Brian.
