If it were mere delusion, the image of the ship would have changed with our societal perception of what an alien ship should look like. But it hasn't. It's still a flying saucer, which seems antiquated by our current cultural perception.
In fact, there are those deniers who suggest that ufo sightings are just delusions we base on what we see in sci-fi movies. Were that the case, we'd be seeing Klingon battle cruisers, Tie fighters and x-wings. We are not, we see flying saucers.
In the biographical note appended to his commentary, he notes that he spent 22 years at NASA’s Mission Control and has written books about space policy and exploration. But he neglects to inform readers of something UFO researchers already know all too well: that he is a founding fellow of the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry (CSI, formerly CSICOP), a group whose aim is to debunk UFOs and any other unexplained phenomena that challenge our familiar ways of thinking.

It is fortunate that many astronauts have come forward to tell their UFO stories. They give some of the most credibility to UFO sightings because their observations are more discerning the the average person. Another Astronaut that has come forward with his stories is Story Musgrave. His was perhaps even a biological entity flying in open space.

This topic just came up on another ufo website I look at called unknown country. I believe Cooper when he said he saw a ufo at Edwards in 1957, and I also believe him when he said he had a friend at Roswell a "fellow officer" who said what crashed was not a balloon but was a craft with alien bodies. I just don't see any motivation for lying about what he had seen or believes. Just my opinion though...

I've tried, but can't locate a 1973 New York City UFO conference.
Was the whole thing made up, or is it possible the date or location is in error?
