When Astronomers See UFOs

A dangerous misconception exists in the field of ufology that there are no astronomers who have seen UFOs. But nothing could be farther from the truth. In fact, there is a long list of famous astronomers who have had remarkable UFO sightings. In 1952, J. Allen Hynek, the astronomical consultant for the Air Force’s Project Blue Book held a conference with a group of astronomers. He asked about UFOs and received some shocking responses. “Over forty astronomers were interviewed,” he said, “of which five had made sightings of one sort or another. This is a higher percentage than among the populace at large.” Researcher Alejandro Rojas of Open Minds, writes “Often people will ask me, ‘If there are so many UFOs, why aren’t astronomers seeing them?’ They are! In fact, astronomers have been some of the most influential advocates for the serious study of UFOs.” This video presents over a dozen accounts from astronomers who have seen UFOs.

In March of 1676, Edmund Halley (the discover of Halley’s comet) observed an object he described as a “vast body apparently bigger than the moon.” He estimates that it was 40 miles high, and moving well over 9000 mph. He would later have other sightings of more unexplained lights in the sky and on the moon, and on March 6, 1716, saw a strange UFO which remained in the sky for 2 full hours.

In 1783, Sir William Herschel (discover of Uranus and several moons throughout our solar system) observed several strange and unexplained lights on the moon. And again. on October 2, 1790, he saw more unexplained lights on the moon’s surface. On several occasions he also reported seeing UFOs in the sky which he described variously as, “round…oval…and disc-shaped,” very much like today’s modern-day UFOs.

On April 12, 1879, astronomer Henry Harrison says that he observed a strange object high in the skies over New York City which remained in view for three hours. He didn’t know it at the time, but another astronomer, Spencer J. Devoe, also saw apparently the same object, and was also unable to identify it. Researcher Morris K Jessup later triangulated the two observations and calculated that the object was no less than a half-mile wide...

“I would’ve seen a flying saucer.”

I am going to argue that premise. And here is why... Once you see them for real there is no mistaking the fact that they move in a way that is absolutely physically impossible compared to any known flight dynamics we can muster. It will immediately hit you with “There is absolutely no way we have anything that can move like that”. There is no way to mistake the difference.

the narrative of et’s is even pushed by disney

Elio’s turbulent ride began well before its calamitous nosedive at the box office durin the June 20-22 corridor. Indeed, the summer of 2023 became a fateful one for the animated film about a lonely boy beamed into outer space by an intergalactic organization after being misidentified as the leader of Earth. The writing was first on the wall for the troubled production when the film from Molina, known as the co-director of Pixar’s Oscar-winning 2017 hit Coco, conducted an early test screening in Arizona. Although viewers expressed how much they enjoyed the movie, they were also asked how many of them would see it in a theater, and not a single hand was raised, according to a source with knowledge of the event. This sounded alarm bells for studio brass.

coming soon to a planet you live on....and real soon.

the congressional hearings where it was revealed the gov has non human bodies is just the opening scene.

gov also has apostate prog clergy crafting a message for the worlds religions to cement the great deception.

these entities are real, their true nature will be hid.

I’m familiar with it. The rejection was because of the “gay” theme not because of the UFO concept.

. There are researchers who can literally call them to come show up using developed advanced consciousness

\

chief among those is dr.steven greer, he was even interviewed on the shawn ryan podcast.

he even has courses on how to call the et to come to you ( aka how to become possessed by opening the door to these genuine inter dimensional entities

.

It wasn’t silent. I live less than a mile from RFK stadium; we used to walk to games, which was great. So in this instance, I was close enough to hear it, especially because it was very low. From my angle, however, it looked stationary as it spun for the turn. I don’t know what the turning radius of a B2 is at low speeds, but that’s how it appeared. Had it been higher and farther away, I might well not have heard it.

I do not have one—but I have heard that an infrared lens will make the skies light up like a Christmas tree.

If you are not at least open to the possibility that God created life throughout the known galaxy, you will be devastated if it ever comes to pass.

Unknown does not equal demonic.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ti 3:16 - All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness

If there were, God would have told us .

He didn’t.

There isn’t.

That says He told us everything we need to know.
