Table containing 80,000+ records of UFO sightings between 1949 and 2014, including city, state, country, lat/long, shape, duration, date/time, and comments

Recommended Analysis
  1. Figure out which shapes of UFOs tend to be seen most often.

  2. Take a look at data since the year 2000. How have annual sightings trended?

  3. Dig into the US data. Which states report the most UFO sightings? What do you think about this?

  4. The next questions will require you to practice your data cleaning skills. The data is pretty raw, and will need some work before you analyze it...

  5. Create a histogram to understand the distribution of the duration of UFO sightings (you'll need to do some cleaning first)

  6. Look at the data in the comments column. What other interesting insights can you pull out of this data?
