New Hampshire is famous for two incidents in the 1960s involving UFOs. One is known as The Exeter Incident, when a hitchhiker and other witnesses say they saw a large flashing object in the sky. Another supposedly took place in the North Country, where Barney and Betty Hill of Portsmouth say they were abducted by aliens.
