UFO Fireball Gives Arizona News Team the Jitters (Video)

A UFO, not behaving like a meteor, streaked across the skies of Arizona, causing many to call police. And for a local news team to head out of the studio to investigate. What was it?

In a sign that mainstream media is beginning to pay serious attention to the unidentified flying object phenomenon, local Arizona TV news affiliate ABC15 did a two-minute news segment on the fireball which was reportedly streaking across the sky as the newscast aired live.

Witness photographs and videos were shown on-screen, and this one, showing an irregular flight path of the object, was broadcast. The news team speculated over what the object could be, even calling it a UFO at one point. A camera crew was sent out to the field to catch video of the object and they were successful.

“Tells me that there was no radar or satellite imaging, no signals intelligenge collected hence while there appeared to be something, there was nothing nothing of merit.”

Good enough for me. Issue closed & problem solved, then.

I can’t believe the depths of stupidity to which TV “journalists” have descended. They’re all worked up because they spotted Venus.

I heard that too, but I’ve seen them for years, late at night, in the darkness away from city lights, in farm country. I won’t talk specifically about them, but I know what I saw. (That’s my story and I’m sticking to it!)

Have you ever seen a little ball of plasma that forms when a crystal fractures? The hills of Arizona probably have lots and lots of crystals fracturing all the time. Some of them probably produce plasma balls.

Oh, and that “irregular” flight path of the orange object is camera shake, which is apparent in the rest of the image.

“Were it a real UFO fighters aircraft from Luke AFB would have been sent up to 1) get real photos, 2) communicate with it, 3) tell it to land at Luke, and if failing to comply 4)shoot it down.”

Not that’s funny, during a UFO incident near DC not too many years ago when the pilots on the F15’s were cleared to open fire on the UFO’s their planes shut off until the UFO’s had moved away, then everything turned back on...

Thanks for your kind reply.

However, for some hereon, those are

mutually exclusive constructs.

In their construction on reality, it is

impossible for Quix to be right . . . particularly about anything interesting or important.

That’s right.

I know a retired USAF officer who has stories about UFO’s in Montana. Malstrom AFB in Great Falls.

the phenomenon of folks seeing objects in the sky, apparently flying, that they cannot identify, has been pretty consistent for decades.

Actually the phenomenon goes back to ancient times. Since the early twentieth century people saw UFOs, prior to that they saw angels.

Nope.

Statistics indicate more the opposite.

This fellow has the best statistical compilations that I know of. You’ll have to search his site out for the fullest understanding of the trends over the decades etc.

He has done a huge job of filtering out the better quality reports for his stats.

http://www.larryhatch.net/MTHISTOS.html

Just keep in mind that such statistics can’t

possibly

be true—by definition—per the wise, unkooked ones hereon.

So they have to be considered bad jokes—by definition.

Until some of the orbs land in some laps and castrate some folks.

PERHAPS the perspective could change, THEN.

Do you mean the airline pilot who dove his airliner when he saw Venus?

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-501843_162-57415135/sleepy-air-canada-pilot-dives-plane-16-injured/

Or the “green, glowing, whale-sized object” which fell from the sky, seen by a CT state trooper and a motorist?
