News Photographer Catches UFO On Tape
Local6.com ^ | October 28, 2002

A photographer for a television station in Albany, N.Y., caught an unusual object on his camera while shooting a story for the local 10 p.m. news, according to a Local 6 News story.

Brandon Mowry filmed the fast-moving unidentified metallic flying object Oct. 20 while shooting a weather story.

Mowry said that he didn't notice the fast-moving object zooming across the sky until he went back to his station and watched the video.

The television station sent their tapes to the FBI and now an investigation is under way to determine exactly what the object is.

"It seems to be long and narrow and symmetrical and traveled at a high speed," retired U.S. Air Force pilot Graham Pritchard said. "However the fact that that was not reflecting any kind of light that was more like a shadow type appearance and the little white dots on each sides of it are not similar to any kind of missile that I have seen."

The FAA said that the object never showed up on local radar.

Is our military testing a new plane, or something else?

Looked like a surface to air missile to me.

long, thin fuselage... with fins and stabilizers symetrically located on opposite sides, like an old "estes" rocket kit, towards the nose and the tail end.

difference is, it's estimated speed was supposedly VERY high, and it supposedly did not show up on radar.

looked like a custom made rocket to me.

Old news. It's just a Roswell Rod. See more of them on Art Bell's web site. Really.

wouldn't surprise me...
after the last few weeks and days, today is indeed, a "slow news day."

It looked so much like a missile or rocket kit, I thought that was what it was. I still do.

There may be flying saucers and little green men, this was neither.

Hallucination ... maybe mass hysteria. Swamp gas is another possibility. Could have been indigestion. Maybe it was Mars. Or Jupiter. Could have been the moon. Probably a satellite. Gastrointestinal meteorism can sometimes cause that. Or just an airplane. Weather balloon, that's what it was, weather balloon! They still use them, you know. Flock of birds is a great possibility. Maybe migrating Monarch Butterflies. Or Hummingbirds... they fly real fast.... how 'bout . . . . .

I dont see anything but a plane in the very bottom picture...

If anyone thinks the very top picture is a missile then it isnt proportionate to the plane shown....whatever it is...it is at a much lower altitude.

Rods are insects that are blurred because they are traveling/flapping their wings faster than the shutter speed on the video camera.
