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...

Three responses from one comment?
Take a breath.
Construct a response. Then write it once.
Better yet, get diagnosed.
Thought maybe they were some of my brethren... :)
How do you know what God would or would not tell you?
You already know He created the universe, at least according to the man made scriptures..He didn't have to tell you what he put in it.
Did God tell you when you were going to die or who was going to win this year's world series?
\
you must have missed this. thats okay , i can repost it.
2Ti 3:16 - All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,/
That says He told us everything we need to know.

you are being silly. i dont need to know those things.
aliens, that might “devastate “ my faith ?
that i would need to know , and he would have told us in scripture.
no, people will believe in alien big brothers who will, and have ,claimed to seed, create, us here
but not believe in fallen angels or hybrid nephilim, who scripture does tell us will pose as angels of light and spin tall tales to deceive us.
the same folk who will believe God had to use evolution to create us.

An IR filter will make gaseous nebulae stand out more if they have an abundance of hydrogen gas. I have an IR cut filter for making the Moon and planets just a little bit sharper. Some astrophotographers have the ir filter actually removed from their DSLRs to make the color red in nebulae more pronounced, but it will ruin the camera for conventional photography, unless that effect is desired.
I’ve watched that “filterectomy” on YouTube, and it’s nerve wracking watching someone pulling the guts out of a DSLR, removing the filter, and re-assembling everything…😮
its part of my creative style !
you dont get to dictate how i post dude.
as for your attempt at the piglousy type wrap up smear...
....typical of your m.o. when you have no rebuttal.
in fact , typical of all rinos and progs and democrats.
you are so squirelly i havent been able to figure which one you are yet.
diagnosed ?
you sound like adam shifty
or AOC or hakeem jefries or what ever his name is.
/-)
.
that i would need to know , and he would have told us in scripture.
And what if those aliens were also made in His image, just like us? Only living in another part of the universe?
Why would God only choose this planet, in this galaxy in the entire universe to plant the seed of life?
ask God those questions, if you dont want to understand the verse i posted.
hey, believe what you want, no skin off my nose.
just trying to give a broham a heads up. ;-) .
You sound like someone who thinks they have a “creative style”. That usually means your 10th grade composition teacher told you that none of what you write makes any sense.
you talk shit cuz you really dont know shit.
as proven by your last post and my response to it.
quit digging is my advise, cuz your replies say more about you than me.
“ Thought maybe they were some of my brethren... :)”
I’ll get names next time and let you know!
Lol...
you sound like adam shifty or AOC or hakeem jefries or what ever his name is.
OH, so now anyone who questions you is now a Rino, Prog and Democrat? You left out communists.....
What a moronic statement......You just lost what little credibility you may have had........Sheesh!
Advise = ADVICE....
You obviously never paid any attention to your college English teacher. Or your grade school teacher either.....LOL!
Yeah…they sure do.
Here is some ADVICE: Invest in spell check and perhaps a grammar check.
Hubby is setting up his monster telescope, two computers, and camera for a session tonight. He would be thrilled if he were to see a photo of a UFO when he does his processing!
COOL!
You attack the messenger
Tobasco does the same thing.
Telling .
Phone keyboards are cramped and some times when I use spell check I'm sloppy
Doesn't negate my points .
Believe what you want
It's not me that will suffer the consequences of your beliefs.
Oh, and,,
/-)
Bless
You
