Interesting concept:
The US premiere at 10 PM Eastern tonight on the Science Channel of the Discovery Canada series 'Close Encounters' will include a test of a concept designed to engage the target demographic: a live twitter sit-in by UFO expert Chris Rutkowski, centered on #CloseEncounters @ScienceChannel. The series is part of a week-long 'Are We Alone?' event on the Science Channel.
The Close Encounters series is a form of primary education into the UFO Phenomenon aimed primarily at younger demographic, one adept at tweeting and watching simultaneously. Each episode in the series gives a thumbnail sketch of two significant cases with commentary from two investigators for each case interwoven with recreations of the events reported.
Thus there is no time to go into the kind of excruciating detail that can emerge from a significant multi-witness case, such as the Kecksburg incident or the March 13, 1997 series of sightings across the state of Arizona.
