Keep Watching The Skies: Exeter UFO Festival Saved From Cancellation

An unusual festival in Exeter, New Hampshire has avoided cancellation with help from a seemingly unusual benefactor.

It's the Exeter UFO Festival, and to explain more we turn to Jason Claffey, editor at Exeter Patch. He's been reporting on the UFO Festival and joins All Things Considered host Brady Carlson with an update.

Update 2/1/13: after this piece aired, Ryan Mullahy, an advisor to the festival, contacted us to explain more about Exeter's connections with UFOs.
