This up-scale community in western Westmoreland county, just east of Pittsburgh, has been a hot-bed of UFO sightings since last year. Reportings have been coming in on a regular basis over the past couple of months. The most recent report is of yet another event that occurred on May 22. At approximately 4:00 a.m., the witness observed an object moving slowly and just above the treeline in front of their house. The object doesn't appear to be any type of conventional aircraft.
The picture at the right is a blown-up still photo of the object photographed with a Sony HDR-XR500V HD camcorder. The entire footage has been submitted to "You Tube" by the witness, and may be viewed by going to www.youtube.com/seeingUFOsPA. The Mutual UFO Network (Mufon) continues to work with the witness to identify this recurring mystery in this rural section of the county. The witness has observed a variety of strange and unusual objects in the sky since 2008, including neon green and orange fireballs, red pulsating disks, cigar-shaped UFO's, and triangular shaped UFO's.
Fascinating.
Do you recall any specifics from such observations?
Thanks for your kind post.
It is weird how the highway sounds ‘bounce’ off of the hills around here. We are up over a small hill from the pike; we can hear the big trucks shifting going up the hill/big bridge to the Irwin Interchange. Can’t see it...but hear it. We could walk down to I76. We also get alot of helicopter traffic (following the Turnpike) and hear that too...
Has there been any ‘local’ news coverage of this YouTube video? I haven’t been home alot over the weekend.
Hope you had a nice holiday weekend :) PaMom
You and me both, Sister FReeper! As Quix knows, I hope very much that all of us here, including Onerom99, live to healthy old age and die contentedly, still arguing whether or not they exist.
I see the humorous graphic that naysayers occasionally post to these threads with a pic of a flying saucer and the words, "I want to believe!" I can well imagine a time when they will be wishing, "I don't want to believe!" Along with yours truly, althought I already don't want to believe.
I don't want to believe, any more than I want to believe that people can be lying thieves. But I'm not insane or kooky enough to believe that three people I've known extremely well, not to mention an American patriot and fighter pilot like Gordon Cooper, are insane kooks. THAT would be truly nuts ... or truly and desperately self-delusional.
Quix has a studied Christian approach to explain his dread of these things with his informed End Times scenarios. My reason for dreading them is less scholarly. Years before discovering Free Republic in 2002 (so I know that it's not related to this), I began having -- uncharacteristically, as my dreams are almost always pleasant -- powerful and terrifying dreams, the same variation in every dream.
It is that my husband and I are outside enjoying something to do with recreation in a public place with lots of people celebrating a holiday, and suddenly the sky is filled with beautiful fripperies, pretty ribbon-like affairs that look like fireworks and fanfare. It becomes quickly clear that they are announcing the "happy" and "friendly" arrival of UFOs, other-planetary aliens, and 99 percent of the people are overjoyed and certain that the arrival is good news because why else would they go to such trouble to treat us to such a beautiful and comforting display?
Meanwhile, about one percent of us, including me and my husband, are instantly filled with foreboding and we all understand that the only way the human race will survive is for us to escape underground someplace. So while the glassy-eyed adoring mobs (as if they're greeting Obama himself!) converge toward the UFOs, the small groups of us know of underground labyrinths and head there, quickly, and in one dream in particular I remember looking out at the sky one last time before hurrying down into a labyrith, and wondering how many generations it will be before humans are able to emerge and see the sky again, in freedom.
I cannot exaggerate the power and real-ness of these dreams. They are not "iffy," or convoluted, or confusing, or wishy-washy. They are very real and deeply frightening yet in a weird way, comforting. In their intensity, they are unlike any dreams I've ever had except a very few overpoweringly good dreams where I believe God provided comfort to me in trying times, and I awoke renewed and restored.
I'm too old to ignore my spiritual gut anymore -- I've learned over the years to heed. Quix suggested, when I relayed the dreams to him, that the Holy Spirit was telling me something. I like to think that's what it is, but one thing I "know" for sure -- when UFOs make themselves publicly known to man, misery for mankind begins.
VERY WELL PUT.
THANKS TONS for sharing your dreams more widely.
They may well save someone’s eternal life.
Blessings to you and yours.
Hi A. Morgan!
Those aliens had better get their hands/paws/webbed appendages OFF of my tomatoes!
Hey, I have eight small tomatoes already.. they are about as big as the tip of your little finger.
Oh.. I see that those Japanese bunching onions are coming up...
To All; [except the rabid naysayers—who can go suck rocks, frankly]
Here’s a narrative from yet another FREEPER who’s experienced UFO’s and interviewed a lot of neighbors who have, as well. Here’s his/her story:
Okay, Quix, here goes. If I run out of room, I’ll start another email as part 2.
In 1970, I met and married a rancher and moved to the California high desert. Having lived in the city for many years, I was fascinated by the bright stars of the dark desert sky. So one August midnight, I went outside to stargaze. We stacked the alfalfa we baled until it was about 15 feet high. I climbed up and sat on top for an unobstructed view.
As I studied the sky, I became aware of six saucer-shaped objects in precise formation! No sounds, no vapor trails, no flashing red and green warning lights, no motion. I could see window-type squares around the lower part of the upper dome. Needless to say, I didn’t take my eyes off them! They were above the barren mountains about seven or eight miles east of us. I have always thought it unlikely that we are the only living beings in the universe and therefore UFOs seemed a possibility. They didn’t scare me any more than a neighboring town’s bus would by driving down our street.
Then, strangely, there were only five objects still in formation. The sixth one was down closer to the mountaintops. It had moved there in an instant......no sign of movement ......just THERE! It disappeared then, and the other five quickly did the same thing, one at a time. This movement is unlike anything our planes can do.
I was so excited! I ran inside and woke my [spouse] to tell [my spouse]. [My spouse] said, “Oh, yeah. They’re out there every year.” I’ll add here that we’re average hard-working Americans who didn’t and don’t use alcohol or drugs. Neither of us at that time had been tested for nor wore glasses. Didn’t need them.
Later, I privately asked neighbors and friends if they had witnessed what I had. After studying me for a minute, each would say yes, and describe the same as I’d seen. Not one said no or called me crazy.
One family said that the father, son and son-in-law once drove to the mountains, wanting to see the craft. As they got close but not in sight of the supposed landing area, all systems in their truck stopped. They were so scared then that they got out and pushed the vehicle back toward home. When they were a short distance away, all systems came on again so they left in a hurry! They thought it was magnetic interference. They all said that if I told anyone their story, they would deny it. That was the feeling of everyone I talked to, by the way.
I myself don’t tell people about this because those who haven’t had any such experience get so emotional and rabid. If they shrugged their shoulders and walked away, I’d understand. But the hysteria in denial??? It’s beyond my understanding. Second generation aliens afraid of being outed? /joke!
Another night, we were driving to a town 20 miles away when we saw the same six UFOs in the same precise formation. There we were in the middle of the dark desert with not another light or person visible. I saw them first and said “Quick! Pull over!” and, in complete darkness, we watched. Again - one at a time - the craft went from Point A to Point B instantly with no sign of linear movement. My [spouse] wanted to go and investigate but I wasn’t ready!
I quizzed people we knew in that town. Again, under a vow of secrecy, they said yes, they’d seen similar things. In fact, had seen the UFOs hovering just above the giant electric transmission lines that crisscross the desert supposedly drawing power from the lines.
Other things I was told: the mountains near our ranch contained quartz crystal deposits and the “visitors” needed that. And during the time of year our area didn’t see them, identical craft and formations were seen in South America (Peru).
I believe in gravity even though I have never seen it. I believe in God, although He tends to remain out of sight. And I believe in UFOs. I have no urge to convert anyone to my way of thinking. I enjoy the confidence of having experienced all three phenomena and I thoroughly enjoy conversing with others who have done so.
THAT’S IT, QUIX. And as we agreed, please keep my name private. Thanks!
I’ve already picked some red ones—mostly ripe! LOL.
. . . from my passively heated raised enclosed tomato bed. They are starting to produce now. I should probably hack them back a bit—they are gangly all over the place inside the glazing. Will see.
Have lots of heirloom seedlings to find a spot for, too. Wheee.
Black Cherry
Black Prince
Black Crimson
Mandarin Cross
Angora Super Sweet
White Beauty
Red Fig
Long Keeper—really does keep months even just out on the counter.
Thanks for the ping!
WOW!
If you were nearby, I’d give you some!
I have never seen what I would call a genuine ufo. One time I saw a strange light in the sky in Northern Iraq where a light should not have been though.
Unfortunately, no, except that it occurred in the mountains somewhere in Washington state. My folks have passed on. Would love to have learned more details.
I firmly believe if we listen to our "Knower" we will not be where bad things are happening.
PS ~ that was a term used by Ward Connerly, describing the sage advice his uncle (who raised him) offered when he left home to drive cross country to seek his fortune in California. His uncle told him he’d be fine as long as he’d listen to his “Knower.”
In my wild, crazy, and dangerous youth, I'm pretty sure I had a Jesus-endorsed "knower" or two who guided firmly and protected miraculously!
ok Smarty Pants Onerom99. What are your thoughts on the Nazca lines, the cave drawings from all over the world that date from thousands of years ago that clearly show space craft and people with equipment that only be described as astronaut like. Anxiously awaiting your comment
You, too? “;^)
Good post Quix. Thanks for the ping! :)
