No contact with aliens was made, but I hope that if they do arrive... they do it with this much color. The UFO was an art project conceived by established New York artist Peter Coffin and created in collaboration with London-based Cinimod Studio. The colorful UFO made its appearance July 4th at the Gdansk Festival of Stars.
