Quoted: Is there, have there been, and will there be other intelligent civilizations in the Universe? Almost certainly. Even if there were millions upon millions, though: Time and space makes an overlap of any two civilizations extremely unlikely. An imaginary ball expanding a circumference of 500 light years from earth isn't even a pinprick in size compared to the overall size of just our single, tiny galaxy. Similarly, Even a 10 million year old civilization is a pinprick in the overall age of, again, our single, tiny galaxy. The chances of two civilizations extant in the same little tiny space and time bubble are almost absurdly unlikely. If you consider the speed of light to be a constraint, it's all but impossible. There's just not much opportunity for overlap. View Quote This. People fail to understand: A) The INCREDIBLY vast distances involving interstellar travel, and B) the extreme difficulties in crossing those distances, even if a civilization has achieved FTL travel, which is, in all probability, physically impossible. |

I read an article that the .gov has anti radar tech that involves powerful lasers. By converging 3 lasers in the sky it creates a plasma at the convergence. The plasma sphere can then be moved with the convergence. The plasma can also be picked up by radar.
If that is true then it would explain the radical maneuvering... But personally I want to Believe. |

I knew it. The "vaccine" is a bio-control mechanism for our new alien overloads to control us. All who refuse the vaccine will be destroyed.

Why is every picture of a UFO taken with a potato?
In the history of photography and flying saucers I have yet to see a picture of a spaceman. Always a blurry light. |
|
Ok, I’m generally inclined to believe that UFOs are a phenomen of some real tangible objects and not camera defects or tricks of the eye, but come on - “striking video” of a blurry white dot on a totally black background Not the most compelling evidence

Yeah okay, can we get it to do something about the fucking Potato administration?

Quoted: Lol that “pulsating orb” was just the camera’s autofocus moving in and out of focus on a point of light. It was probably either Venus or another aircraft. View Quote This, more than likely exaggerated by someone who could not hold the camera still. But hey, the "I want to believe" crowd sees it as proof of beings from another world visiting earth and all that. Why are you pooping on their party with logic and simple explanations? |

Some guy just used a time machine to try and track down one of his lost FEDEX packages
|
|
It's the phone's software trying to even out the lighting levels as it was moving/focusing/zooming/etc.

Quoted: I'll fall back on my "Go To" for crappy UFO video and photos. The one & only crash of the Concorde aircraft had decent quality still and even video from 3 vantage points for the few seconds it was airborne and in flames. There has never been anything even remotely of that quality claimed to be a UFO. Why do you suppose that is? View Quote |
|
Guess they decided to come see if the rumour going around the galaxy about Fedex delivery was true.
|
|
that looked less like a UFO and more like a camera trying to focus on a light reflected off a window. Like maybe a status light. Or maybe even another aircraft.

Swamp gas from a weather balloon was trapped in a thermal pocket and reflected the light from Venus.

Quoted: Are the terms "Swamp Gas" and "weather balloon" too outdated now? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Drone or jetpack Are the terms "Swamp Gas" and "weather balloon" too outdated now? I don't know. But everytime I see videos like this, the doubters call it a drone or a jetpack or wings unit or whatever else they can think of. My post was meant as sarcasm, but I forgot the emoji |

Quoted: So, do we think that the WWII B-17 bomber crews were lying about the "foo fighters"? These were glowing orbs that would follow the planes. However, given what China recently accomplished with their physics defying supersonic globe circling nuke rocket, maybe the tech has been with us for a while. View Quote my first thought, that is a foo fighter. have read many WW2 ETO books and they were so common they were joked about. |

Quoted: I guess the pilot was lying about it pulsating while watching it in real time, and has no idea what other aircraft looks like.

Quoted: Lol that “pulsating orb” was just the camera’s autofocus moving in and out of focus on a point of light. It was probably either Venus or another aircraft. View Quote Wrong. They mentioned it was pulsating. plus, autofocus doesn’t work like that-it doesn’t give a strobe effect. They see Venus and Mercury and Stars every night, so it wouldn’t cause comment. |

Quoted: Look what we have accomplished in the last 100yrs... Imagine civilizations millions of years old, that actually worked together & not constantly trying to kill each other, could accomplish View Quote Take yourself to a good museum. Most of humanities advances, were invented for war. |

Which is more likely?
1. Pilot saw Venus and tried to take a picture. 2. Monsters from outer space piloted a spacecraft to Earth and flew alongside a jet. |

Quoted: Why is every picture of a UFO taken with a potato? In the history of photography and flying saucers I have yet to see a picture of a spaceman. Always a blurry light. View Quote It’s difficult to video a single ball of plasma through an aircraft window. The glass is thick, and polarized, so there’s diffraction and reflections, etc. He actually did a pretty good job. The pulsating looked like a regular pattern. It gives me the impression of something man made, I guess because it had a similar frequency to strobe lights. They definitely saw a UFO, but it might be a secret military project, rather than extraterrestrial. |

Quoted: No. Unless a military drone. No civilian drone or jetpack can fly for 30 minutes, with the equipment needed for lighting, particularly over the Gulf at the altitude and airspeed below. The 767 was flying at approximately 575 mph at 37,000 ft when the encounter happened. View Quote They do now, there was an incident earlier this year where a drone evaded two helicopters for well over an hour including speeds of 100 mph at 15,000 feet. Drone chase article |
