Subscribe to RSSThe Internet has made it easier for reports of UFO sightings to make it into the media mainstream, but it's also easier to track down the truth that's out there. The past week's X-Files from New York and El Paso are two classic cases that demonstrate how perfectly natural phenomena can lead to way-out interpretations.
Take the New York sightings on Oct. 13, for example: The strange lights visible in daytime skies above the city sparked TV reports from Manhattan to Moscow, particularly because a retired military officer named Stanley Fulham predicted there would be a "massive UFO display over the world's principal cities" on that day.
The likelier explanation, however, is that the lights were actually party balloons glinting in the sun. The New York Daily News went so far as to pinpoint the source of the balloons: a party held at a suburban New York elementary school in honor of a teacher's engagement. A parent bringing 40 of the iridescent pearl balloons lost a bunch of them on the way in to Milestone School in Mount Vernon, N.Y., about an hour before the sightings began. The wind would have taken the balloons southward at just the right time.
"UFOs? They're crazy -- those are our balloons," Angela Freeman, the head of the school, told the Daily News.
The local TV report shown above embellishes the balloon report with a shot of a bright blip in the evening sky, surrounded by a few smaller blips. "Was that anything? Was it what people saw earlier? I don't know, I can't tell you," the reporter says. But what's on the video is a classic close-up of Jupiter and its largest moons. Jupiter happens to be about as close to Earth as it ever gets, which means the planet would be big and bright in the skies over New York. That seems to prove the point that planets are often mistaken for UFOs. Or does it?!
Just a couple of days later, the UFO buzz picked up again, with claims that strange lights had been seen in the skies over El Paso. The video at the very top of this item presents a report from KTSM-TV about the sightings. It looks as if a bright spot breaks into three teardrops of light that float earthward. Britain's Daily Mail gushed over the incident, showing a picture of three shining specks over New York as well as the three specks in Texas. "They said the 'UFO' over New York was just balloons ... so how do they explain the mirror image over El Paso?" the Mail asks in its headline.
Here's how: It didn't take long for folks to recall that there was an air show in El Paso over the weekend, and that one of the featured attractions was a nighttime parachute show by the U.S. Army's Golden Knights. The YouTube video below, captured a year earlier, shows three members of the parachute team falling through the skies with flares blazing, a sight very similar to what was seen in El Paso over the weekend.
The Golden Knights themselves link to the TV report from their Twitter page with this commentary: "Black Team causes panic in El Paso." And there's this: "Wow, GK blog is crashing due to Black Team's jump in El Paso. For the record we are not aliens in disguise."
If the El Paso lights look as if they're floating in the air, that may simply be because of the way the video camera was held. But what about the "mirror images" of the three New York lights and the three El Paso lights? In order to achieve that mirror effect, the El Paso video frame had to be turned 90 degrees clockwise. Whenever you have video of three things floating through the air, chances are you'll always find a frame in which that triad forms a triangle of some sort.
On Monday, KTSM broadcast a follow-up report that went along with the air-show explanation.
So does this close the case? Or are the Golden Knights and KTSM in on the alien conspiracy? Either way, the UFO hit parade just keeps rolling along. Now there's talk of a sighting in Florida, as well as the "God in Google Maps." Trust no one...

...exwept u own head cawse the twuth set u fwee. Weeeeeee waw lowd, weeeeeee.
Why does everyone assume there are actual creatures on UFO's? Logically this makes no sense to me. How do humans explore space? We send out probes and robots. Incase something goes wrong, someone's life isn't on the line and that piece of equipment can be replaced.
Why wouldn't another intelligent life form (capable of traveling vast distances) think the same? Why risk their own lives to come study earth if they can send out probes to do the same?
If we humans can now detect planets outside our solar system, then wouldn’t it be possible other intelligent life forms are capable of doing the same?
I personally don't believe they're here to exterminate us; otherwise they would've done it by now.
I do believe that if these UFO's are exterrestrial, they're here observing how life evolves on planet earth. This most likely isn't the only planet their watching. Trying to find out the same questions we ask every day, why are we here and how does life evolve throughout the cosmos.
Two cases proves there is no truth to the UFO conspiracy theories? Are you being sarcastic when you say trust no one? These are serious questions I need to know.
Thanks
Yes, I'm trying to play off the old "X-Files" line. Trust no one ... look at the evidence, but remember that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. In the case of the "God in Google Maps" picture, for example, it's more likely that there's some camera effect or reflection at work, and less likely that the picture records a miraculous apparition.
These are just the two most recent cases (although UFO cases continue to crop up). It's hard to keep up with the flow of anomalous reports, but if you follow the links at the end of the story, you can bring yourself up to date on the Chinese reports and other famous X-Files. Thank goodness these reports were so easily explained.
party balloons are UFOs explained, they disable nukes, are seen in space with the shuttle, and tracked on radar going thousands of MPH.
Right up there with crop circles. Get real people. History and Discovery make hay on this, trying to make the "Ghostbusters" Movie become real.
Disable Nukes?? Wow, what a stretch!
Party balloons? really? Now that to me is the extraordinary claim. I'd like to find out how many of this teachers party balloons were let go and then I'm going to make my own UFO video if it's so easy. I personally don't buy the balloon theory. And the Golden Knights thing looks kind of similar but I don't buy that either. You say these are "miraculous apparitions". As near as anyone can tell, the only thing anyone is sure of, is that there were lights in the sky. That is not miraculous. People attach a "UFO" label to this stuff but that doesn't actually mean it's aliens. It's just unidentified. I don't believe they were party balloons. I don't believe they were parachute's and flares. Frankly I have no clue what they are but the "easy explanations" just don't seem to fit the images.
I'm sorry but those are not ballons
Thank u Mob, it seems to be just another way to bury the truth. The identical patterns being a coincidence is bull. The El paso lights made the same shape in the sky and that was just the camera angle? Please! I know its hard to believe everything you see on the net, but there is another video of a plane in the sky over NYC that day and it shows something emerging from the sky that sure isn't a fricken balloon. Stop insulting our inteligence and just get the disclosure over with already, geez! Crazy people aside, I think we can handle the truth. We'll just put the rest in a rubber room until they calm down.
Although me and my buddies jump from planes all the time with rockets coming out of our wazoos and do a three way split at the end. Thats right we're bad. Just a guess but I wonder if the government would tell the media to put a bull story out to further bury any ET cover up.
When I was growing up, a lot of people were looking at this bright object in the sky. I got my telescope out and, guess what? Weather balloon. Balloons are quite bright when reflecting sunlight, and if these were those mylar aluminum like things, then they could be quite bright.
The other could be air show maneuvers. Looked like a meteor to me, until the three stopped. But that makes sense that the trails stopped when the chutes deployed.
It doesn't mean they aren't out there, but these two are probably what they say.
I don't know if they were balloons or not. If they weren't it makes sense, UFOs are sighted all the time! If they were balloons who cares, doesn't disprove the possibility.
I can't believe they showed the n.y. balloons for 3 days on network news, but never show very credible videos that are very convincing. Why don't they show those!!!
Apparently balloons can hover at one location for long time, shine brightly in broad daylight, and then suddenly veer away at incredible speed from complete dead stop. Or maybe the media is the main source of misinformation today, reveling in its power to muddy any news to its liking, color anything with its "official" viewpoint, ridicule, disparage and marginalize anyone with whom they disagree by using the fig leaf of "rationality". However this same rationalism and skepticism disappears the moment global warming and macro-evolution appear on the scene, suddenly theories with shaky backgrounds and almost no hard evidence becomes not just theory but "fact" itself. People today have to nothing to fear except the power of media itself.
I missed seeing the "suddenly veering away" part on video, although I suppose once a balloon pops there might be some veering. Of course they can hover and shine brightly in the sun. I definitely don't revel in any power, and if I've disparaged anyone, I'm sorry about that. As for climate change (the term "global warming" is a simplification, from what I understand) and speciation, I think the evidence is pretty well founded.
They hover in the same spot for hours? I want to know where to buy these magic balloons. Do you know Alan? Why don't you go buy some balloons and recreate this for us all to see. Im sure NBC could squeeze that in their budget.
It is sad to me that Alan Boyle can be taken so fervently by the balloon theory. Were these balloons observed from one spot or area? or were they observed from multiple areas of the city? (I really don't know, so an answer to that question would help)
From the video provided in this article you can see the people pointing at what they see and looking up taking photos and video. You can also see light on the trees in the background of all those shots. One of the shots looks like they may be in position for something to "glint sunlight" at them, but I'm very curious to know about people in other place looking at this supposed "balloon" event. The sun won't glint off the balloons to every vantage point in the city. And without a glinting effect the balloons would appear MUCH smaller.
Bob,
Off topic I know but, "Macro-evolution?" There's no difference between so-called micro and macro-evolution. They are the same thing over different time periods. A small amount of "micro's" will become a "macro" in a given time.
Video from different locations showing ground objects would be great for triangulating a distance. Someone with a SLR zoom camera would have been able to put this to rest quite easily.
I was outside when it went down here in El Paso, Texas. Flares don't travel like a meteor, stop and move to the side, stop again and just go out/no fade out. There was a first one before the ones in the news, that's what made me get my camera. Obviously i didn't catch it on cam either. Then these came in after the firs...t one disappeared. This one was traveling like a meteor, split into three and then stopped and hovered in a triangle configuration moving as if on a solid object. They then formed a line and then a fourth one appeared. Clear night! No airplanes in the sky!

hmm .. it is possible that they're "parachutes and flares". but if you watch the two videos (UFOs and the three parachutes from last year) .. you'll notice some differences.
in the parachute show .. the three flares fall .. and when they stop .. the flare tail is still there following their every movement. however, in the UFO video .. when they stop .. the tail is also gone. they turn into complete circles without any flare tails. so that's one difference.
the second difference, is that the 4th ball or UFO that came out .. did NOT have any flare .. it just appeared out of nowhere.
anyways, I can't say for sure. but I guess time will tell =)
the absence of flares and no parachute like movement (compared to the video from a year ago) make me think the Golden Knights are just offering themselves up as a possibility. I won't speculate why they would do that. But they did have a show going on in the area. I personally don't feel the lights over El Paso match the kind of thing the Golden Knights do in their performance.
Why would aliens build craft that glowed? They should be able to detect each other without blinking lights that Earth aircraft use.
This is ridiculous, do they really think people are that stupid to believe this?
To believe that unidentified flying objects are extraterrestrial in nature ... or to believe the explanations that I've put forward?
They are very clearly unidentified flying objects. That is not to say they are ET's as that would mean they were identified as such. The explanations put forth are mere possibilities, they are not the "extraordinary evidence" that you say is necessary. To me the balloon thing hinges on the vantage point of onlookers in relation to the sun and the "balloons". The glinting effect (as described in the article) would not happen all over the city. (and I've stated earlier that I'm new to this story and do not know if the sightings were city wide). The "explanation" of parachutes and flares" doesn't hold water at all. Sure they put on a show in El Paso. Maybe that's true, I don't know. But even if it is true the video in the article from the previous year shows a different event then all the videos of the "ufo's in el paso". Manuel Lozano posted a link to the video taken at the kids baseball game and that shows the lights and they do NOT behave like flares attached to guys with parachutes. When you glide around on a parachute there is a signature-like movement that basically keeps forward motion at all times. And after viewing all the videos it doesn't appear that the el Paso lights are "coming at the camera".
And Rosewell is all myth and legend??? Air show pilots don't practice at night (ever seen a night air show---can't see the planes) and what was the explanation for the NY sightings---balloons---ya right. Check out the old Project Blue Book files---only 87% explained away.
Yes, Roswell is all myth and legend. Very profitable myth and legend, but all myth and legend. Yes, sometimes airshow pilots DO practice at night. Check out shots of RAAF F-111s making appearances over Sidney Harbor, dumping fuel and lighting it with afterburners. When F-111s were stationed at Cannon AFB, NM (Clovis), we often flew at night and occasionally (though illegally) dumped fuel and "torched" the night skies, leading to lots of UFO calls. In this case, it was the Golden Knights using flares to make a spectacular appearance. There are UFOs, as in "unexplained" objects "flying" about. Whether a UFO is an alien craft of some kind is another question.
I've seen a military night air show, it was reletively relatively common at Miramar Naval Air Station when the Navy owned it. Actually they were called "twilight" air shows, as I recall.
Regarding the Blue Book 87% number you cite, it's impossible to prove a negative or a made up or poorly documented event.
The Golden Nights show has only two similarities to the El Paso lights. They fall with flares and seperate in a similar fashion. but one the parachutes deploy it's all different. the movements are different (the golden knights still move, the el paso lights [from multiple video angles] stay VERY still, coming into alignment very slowly, the golden knights move much quicker.) the flares are different. Even when they fall the flares are different in the golden knights and the el paso lights.
I'm not arguing FOR or against aliens here. I am arguing against the golden knights "explanation". (and the balloons in other comments)
More than ever we must all be open to new ideas and use critical thinking to analyze the data in front of us. This is great people are talking about UFO's. It is a valid area of scientific study. It is very very interesting. I saw three of them in my life and I can tell you all it is real. However , just because SOME cases of UFO's are real does not mean we can believe all of the nut jobs who talk about them or that we can disbelieve all the pompous asses who try to discredit them. The truth is in the middle. I can say for certain , SOME ufo's are real and are not from this planet. it is SO obvious if you do a little research and look into it. The phoenix lights is all you need to read about and you will see it is real. However , I don't think Roswell was anything more than a weather balloon. Aliens are too smart to crodd the galaxy and then crash into a field. Come on. It doesn't make any sense.
Roswell was more than likely an unmanned probe that crashed on Earth because when the young alien engineers made their calculations for monitoring Earth, they forgot to change their calculations to metric from standard.
I'm sure party baloons go up all the time- and I can't think of a time I've heard of lost baloons causing such a commotion about ufos
There are some serious physicists and ufo geeks out there who think this article is indeed downplaying the possibility the NY and El Paso sightings can be written off so easily. As per usual, there is strange madness you (as a mainstream media rep) don't touch. The people with more detailed information have done far more leg work on the matter - but they don't write for MSNBC. Hey man, it's safer to keep your job then really go out on a limb, right?
What about Richmond, VA?
http://rvamag.com/videos/clip/9298/ufos-over-rva
hahaha I love this blog post.
I like that balloons in the air and that air show video you posted LOOK NOTHING LIKE what really was in the air at the time. Yet... without a shadow of a doubt, you are SO sure its those sources, even though, the two video footage of the El Paso lights and the NYC Lights look more like each other than balloons up in the air or what you shown was the air show.
Has anyone seen balloons up in the air?! YES. Everyone has, thats why when its up in the air, NO ONE WOULD MAKE A FUSS. Because they're obviously BALLOONS IN THE AIR. Has anyone been to an air show? Yes. Everyone has. And im sure, if its obviously jets in the air no one would make a fuss.
These objects are still Unidentified. Your blog wont change that, because your story is just NOT THAT convincing.
I'm with JJMcKay here.
jjmckay hit it on the nose.
the same light orbs have been seen in Hawaii... youtube search it. also the first UFO report was at 9:30est in NYC and the balloons were not released until 1:30 and look totally different then the orbs seen high above NYC... its NYC balloons are floating around all the time and dont stop hundreds of people in the street
I grew up in the 60's, the heyday of UFO's. There wasn't a day that went by without a story about UFO's in the local paper. When Dale Spaur chased a UFO not too many miles from where I lived, I thought the world was coming to an end. I was more afraid of UFO's than the Russians bombing us. And I scared my 4th grade class half to death when I did an oral book report on The Interrupted Journey, (complete with pictures that had appeared in Look Magazine).
When I became an amateur astronomer 25 years ago, I thought, Great, now I'll get to see some real UFO action. In 25 years, I've been outside almost every clear night, (even if it's only been for a half hour...I was out at 4 am this morning looking at Orion). I've only seen one object I couldn't explain back in June 1996. And none since. My late husband worked at a bookstore, and got stuck doing the New Age book club every month back in the late 90's. He'd bring home copies of all the UFO books for me to read. One book claimed that 1 in 5 people were abductees, that aliens were tromping around the neighborhoods performing all sorts of sex experiments on people late at night, and that UFO's were all over the night sky. Well, I was out night after night, with a telescope and binoculars, and I wasn't seeing them. And I'm still not.
The New York tape does look a lot like balloons, I've seen videos of balloons in the sky that look like those. The second tape, well, even with the explanation from the Black Knights, I don't really think it looks the same. But is it a UFO, flown by extraterrestrials? Don't think so. What it is? I don't know. I do think that we are not alone in the universe. But as night after night passes, and I sit outside WISHING to see a genuine UFO, I get the feeling that whatever is out there is either not advanced enough to travel across the universe, or doesn't care to do so. Though as I sit there, looking at all those stars, I often find myself wondering if anyone else is out there, looking at our sun, wondering if anyone over here is looking back at them.
It sounds more like you're just bumbed because you haven't seen a UFO and that will be your only proof positive. I was there and they were not balloons,
Well, I'm holding onto my Slim Whitman records just in case.
Now, seriously folks, aliens from another planet? They must be the biggest practical jokers in the universe.
They are out there, hiding from all of our observation and detection technology and every now and then, when they get bored, they pop up somewhere, make a few headlines and laugh their little grey butts off at our reaction.
Gimme a break.
Now, don't get me wrong, I believe there is life out there in space and someday we'll make first contact. It may only be a single cell creature swimming in a methane sea or a microbe but we'll find it and name it and prove once and for all that we are not alone.
But stop and think about the technology required to enable an alien from the closest possible life-sustaining home world to get here in a single lifetime. Oh yes yes yes, they are soooo advanced, they have warp power or whatever sci-fi term you like. Gimme another break.
I agree, anything is possible, but it's not very probable. Let's not forget that in times of stress and uncertainty UFO sightings spike. Well, let's look at the world situation. The US hasn't been this polarized since just prior to the civil war. Governments and France and the UK are making drastic cuts to their budgets, China seems besieged by natural disasters. Hmmm.....and now we see more reports of little green men flashing us from the sky...hmmm....coincidence? I don't think so.
So, take a deep breath, grab a beer out of the fridge and go watch a Star Trek re-run.
That said, I'm still holding on to my Slim Whitman records, you know, just in case.
Okay, aliens are one thing. UFO's do NOT mean aliens. Some folks jump to that conclusion even though these are not alien sightings, they are UFO sightings. They ARE unidentified (not aliens, just unidentified). Alan Boyle thinks they are balloons and guys jumping from airplanes, but the fact is NO ONE can say for sure.
It could all be swamp gas for all we know.
I love that Slim Whitman reference! Now I've got to see if there are any "Mars Attacks" clips on the Internet.
It's funny to me when a person starts talking about the impossibilities of travel across space and time. Granted if some civilization out there has been around 1000 or more years than us, they probably know a hell of a lot more than we do and can comprehend. So just because we cant wrap our minds around it doesn't make it impossible.
Alan, you made my day. Thanks
how many news helicopters are in the ny area? your going to tell me that with the amount of time manhatten was staring and pointing at the things in the sky that not a single news chopper could have gotten close enough for a very easy zoom in close up on the objects? im sorry but that just seems laughable to me. ill be skeptical at this point about what im being fed by the media.
if you actually study the videos and watch and compare them side by side, you will notice that the el paso lights are no way parachuters with flares. Thats like using the military's old explantaion of swamp gas or weather ballons, give me a break.
While talking about ballons, the new york sightings where no way ballons, that high in the sky ballons would probably have to be the size of a weather ballon, and even if that was possible (from a school party) ballons dont reflect enough light so people 30000 ft below can see them.
Why is it soooo hard for people to believe there are UFO's. it's been all over history and recorded in history. look at some famous paintings, there's UFO's depicted in a lot of paintings from the i believe 1400-1600's.
So unless the old school people of michealangelo, picasso, and divnci's time had balloons, swamp gas, and military tests. the evidence is obvious.
BUT it is a known and proven fact that the United States military's and powers have recreated versions of flying vehicles no where similar to a jet. ROSWELL DID FOR A FACT HAPPEN and they basically re-engineered what they found. look at the history of technology, some of the stuff the military has was no way a finding stumbled upon by science.
the GOVERNMENT LIES, thats the truth. it's time to open your eyes, knowledge is power people, think and educate your selves.
sometimes things are as simple as they seem. if it smells like it, looks like it, feels like it, chances are it's dog crap.
Alan,
I'm glad you posted this. Too often UFO enthusiasts and the media that panders to them play this game on the dubious interpretation of UFO. The balloons at the time to those casual observers were, in fact, unidentified flying objects, but that didn't make them flying saucers.
Still there are the other eerie cases that were reported that boggle the mind, like the O'Hare airport UFO that had plenty of witnesses, but was never been shown to have been a balloon or any other mundane object.
Thanks again,
David
"Too often UFO enthusiasts and the media that panders to them play this game on the dubious interpretation of UFO."
I am an avid reader of the cosmic log, so it's hard for me to say this, but Alan Boyle is part of the media that "panders to UFO enthusiasts" (and others like me who just love all things space). If you've read a few of these stories then you know how many comments these article get. I just read this article an hour ago and I've comments quite a few times already. People get heated about this issue and that's why the media "panders" like this. Face it, people like stories like this, even if they love to hate them. There has been a lot of talk recently about a confluence of alien-related stories. Some even go so far as to suggest that the "powers that be" are desensitizing us all to prepare us for "a big reveal". Whether we buy into that is beside the point, the point is there are more and more article and stories in the news about UFO's, aliens, new findings of exo-planets, new things from SETI, "alien ambassador", and so on...
Some folks couldn't care less about normal mundane news, weather, and sports. They don't care about celebrities and the jersey shmores. All these types want is another crazy story about something totally unearthly. UFO's and aliens are exciting. that's the bottom line.
I agree with you for the most part, and I enjoy and search out science, sci-fi, and UFO articles all the time. My point is that often times the AP or original story writers intentionally blur the lines to make for good headlines.
LOL Alan is pretty lame and his powers of observation are pathetic should be ashamed of himself. The night jump video looks like some something on fire falling to the earth, no even formation, and no hovering. The objects in the UFO video glow and the light is smooth and uniform. The objects split out then hoover. Alan my man you need to check your vision.
I agree that the night jump doesn't fit the bill for the El paso lights. As for the glow and smooth lights one could make an argument that the video was simply taken from further away. Indeed flares would look like that from a distance. But, that's where the devil's advocating ends. The night jumps movements would look very different than the movements observed in the El Paso video. I don't know what it is, but to me the "explanations" of the night jumps and the balloons don't pan out. they don't fit the bill.
The El Paso lights definitely look like a parachute drop to me ... Those things can hang in the air for a long time, especially when seen from a distance. But you're right that it's time to get my eyes examined. I'm getting more farsighted after staring into this computer screen for so long. ;-)
Okay, so now we need to ask the Golden Knights a question. Does the air show involve a part where they "hang in the air for a long time". As someone on the ground watching an air show I don't think that would be very exciting and usually those shows go for exciting. I am open to the possibility that they may have performed the feat of hanging there for a time, I just don't see why they would do that in an air show. If they wanted to show there prowess in control over a parachute I would think that kind of spectacle would be saved for a daylight show. Otherwise it's just a dangling flare, and just as a point of opinion I would not include that in any air show I was planning (if I planned those kind of things). It seems like a VERY loose explanation Alan.
I think its funny how when all these clear-cut (either Black Projects with covert money, or 'real deal' unknown cosmic spacecraft) All the mainstream media outlets use GhostTheory.com to 'debunk' things. Sure, kids could have release ballons in NYC-but whatever that was-it was NOT BALLONS. Same with Texas as ghosttheory.com tries to say they were Army Airtroopers, and their schedule reflects that.
Do they really think people are that dumb?
Those weren't flares or paratroopers in Texas-they free-falled then STOPPED in mid air-THEN MADE A FORMATION without moving for HOURS according to witnesses.
The media is the same Menstral show of the 1500's trying to keep everyone distracted, and away from the real truth-nothing has changed. We know the government and media collaborate on these things-research sightings the last 60 years and you'll see remnants of the hidden truth.
Sadly,yes, they do think people are that dumb. Even more sad is the fact that many people are that dumb. Whether it's the wild eyed bible heads babbling about black helicopters, alien demons and a world government ushering in the end times(sorry folks, the human race won't survive another fifty years without a world government-deal with that), the looney tunes tea partiers ranting about how they want some illusory country back, or a so called science writer taking a momentary break from telling the good folks of Phoenix and Stephenville that the massive boomerangs over their cities were- just Venus to tell the people of New York and El Paso that, without doubt, what they saw was balloons & flaming skydivers- well, yes a lot of folks are that dumb. The 1954 CIA sponsored Robertson Panel still sees to that today. But on the plus side, there do seem to be a lot less stupid people these days. Lets keep that trend going.
OH! Not to mention-the same thing (or things) was seen over Richmond last night too.....
Still skylanterns and paratroopers? (only if you smoke crack....)
This is what I mean about UFO reports. Once one or two are reported, many more people are geared up to look at something strange and immediately assume it's an anomaly. One of the women quoted in the UFO video says exactly that ... that she was expecting to see a UFO when she went outside. It's hard to keep up with every "lights in the sky" report, but it's good to keep your eyes on the skies.
Well usually its no star-people, but Military Aircraft-Just like the one that halted Airport traffic in China.
Sure the Peoples Paper sources ADMITTED it was military, but since the initial report-NOTHING.
This is the same with media worldwide. The minute the planes are outted as experimental (and a lot of times CLEAN, EFFICIENT ENERGY POWERED LIKE ELECTROGRAVITIC) they retract the story.
I wonder why in my gas-guzzling, non-clean energy world they do such things.....I've seen many things in the sky late at night but I know most of these are no star-people. The covert planes usually have their own patterns not yet revealed to the public or the public is IGNORANT to what they are percieving. These TRB-3's of the AURORA PROJECT have the same Triangular light patterns and from MILITARY SOURCES-burn VERY HOT and some models are nuclear-powered. That's why they glow is so massive and multi-colored.
Your (BILLIONS) of tax dollars at work-and in the dark.
Nothing has changed, and truth continues to escape MILLIONS.
you can learn alot about actual ufo research and past military soldiers involvement in it but it is not being offered to you by the us government...you need to dig and research for yourself. my ufo research is on the internet since 2007 when i decided it was time to tell the world as much info as possible.before the present flurry of more ufo formations started to appear...google DERRUFO to learn more or see my 75 videos at youtube....i am there under name DERR115
