Uh huh ... right. You’d think an interplanetary craft would be capable of missing a spinning 65 foot blade ... maybe the skipper was doing Jello shots.

But many locals are now pointing the blame at the ‘Octopus UFO’ – so named because of the tentacles and how the lights appeared joined in formation.

Even the space aliens are getting sick of the greenieweenies.

in a related story, Nessie has been blamed for poluting Loch Ness.

It was actually caused by a collaboration among the Illuminati, the Bilderbergers, Trilateralists, the Masons and even the Shriners.

Surely a collision involving that much force must have left some sort of artefact or residue on the turbine blade. It should be very carefully inspected for any evidence left behind by the object that hit it.

Well, it’s sure to leave a mark, somewhere.

(anyone check the local coal miners’ garages?)

Metal fatigue. Expect lots more blades to fall off.

Per the Guardian UK...

The Guardian News & Media director of digital content, Emily Bell, would like to make it clear that her family had no part in damaging any of those 65ft multimillion-pound turbine blades - but she can help explain those "massive balls of light with tentacles going right down to the ground", as one onlooker described them to the Sun.

Those mysterious lights were actually the fireworks Emily's brother Tim had bought at the local garden centre for the 80th birthday party of dad Peter Bell. "It was a medium-sized fireworks display with absolutely no ballistics, and the fireworks were mostly dropping over my parents' house. But we were laughing that we could have broken the wind turbine," jested Emily.

or, imbalance induced metal fatigue producing failure crack at connector fasteners.

It was a spur of the moment event

Ive seen those types of clouds while living in the UK. They are full of ice crystals being reflected by the sun. Causes a, sort of, ‘concentrated rainbow’. They’re very pretty.

So now we have clear evidence - Aliens from Remulac 9 are indeed cooperating with Big Oil to destroy alternative energy.
