A leading UFO expert said aliens "don't come in peace" and described what they look like after 45 years of investigation.
Malcolm Robinson is one of the UK's leading extraterrestrial specialists and has written more than ten books on the subject, having researched dozens of alien incidents over the decades.
And while many so-called sightings have a simple, earthly explanation, Robinson says there are still plenty of sightings that have yet to be understood.

"Whilst a large proportion of UFOs can be explained away as having natural explanations, only a few remain, and it is to that small one percent that I and my colleagues worldwide are trying to get to the bottom," Robinson told the Daily Star.
"What is in no doubt, is that the UFO enigma is real, very real, it has been with us throughout time.
"We see this in Renaissance paintings and old cave paintings, these strange shapes and entities."
Asked what aliens might want from us mere humans, Robinson responded: "They have an agenda for sure, we can but speculate.
"I wouldn't say they are peaceful, due to the thousands of UFO abductions worldwide."
Robinson became immersed in the world of UFOs at the age of 20, when he tried to prove all sightings were all nonsense – and failed.
"I started out to disprove these subjects as I honestly felt that there was no validity to UFOs," he explained.
"How wrong was I!"

Since then he has given lectures in the UK, Europe and America and has discussed his theories with the likes of Amanda Holden and Steven Spielberg.
He also founded Scotland's oldest current UFO and paranormal activity society, Strange Phenomena Investigations, in 1979.
When asked what he thinks aliens look like, Robinson said the most commonly-reported sightings aren't too dissimilar from the kinds of creatures we're used to seeing in films and TV.
"Witnesses state that they are seeing what we call 'Greys'," he explained.
"[These are] small childlike creatures, about 3 to 4 feet in height with bluey-grey translucent skin, large pear-shaped heads with inky black wrap-around eyes. No sign of any genitalia.
"These small greys are the most commonly reported entities seen in close proximity to UFOs."
His many years of investigation have also led him to unpack a number of dramatic incidents, including Scotland's first-ever alien abduction which allegedly saw Edinburgh residents Garry Wood and Colin Wright carried away on August 17, 1992, in what is now known as the 'A70 Incident'.
Writing about the incident for one of his best-selling books, Robinson described: "[The pair] were subjected to an astonishing and frightening experience which has stayed with them to this day."
The pair had been driving on the A70, described as a "desolate stretch of road" when they were confronted with a "two-tiered disc-shaped object which looked decidedly out of place" hovering about 20 feet above the surface of the road.
The men sped away and believed they had escaped, but lost about half an hour's worth of memory from the drive and, days later, began experiencing headaches.
It was then that Robinson became involved, researching the case and subjecting the pair to hypnosis to better understand what had happened that night.
"That hypnotherapist was Helen Walters, a dear friend of mine and someone who would treat both Garry and Colin with the utmost care," he wrote.
Under hypnosis, both men recalled seeing three small "entities" who took them into the flying black object and kept them there for some period of time.
"Both Garry and Colin are left feeling bemused by what happened to them," Robinson wrote.
"Their lives may have changed, but they are still the men they were, albeit with a different perspective on life."
