Four bell-shaped UFOs appear in MD photo
examiner ^ | April 10 2009 | Roger Marsh

A Maryland witness is reporting some odd bell-shaped objects in the sky that appeared in a photo taken April 5, according to a report filed with the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) database.

Three of the objects were silver, the witness stated, and one was black.

The witness said he did not observe these objects with the naked eye, but only discovered them after browsing the images later.

The bell-shaped UFO account does pop up occassionally in reports, although not quite as often as disc or triangular-shaped objects. The most famous case of a bell, or acorn-shaped object, was the UFO that fell from the sky in what appeared by multiple witnesses to be a controlled landing on Dec. 9, 1965, in a wooded area in Kecksburg, PA. The Kecksburg object, as we know, was retreived by the military that same night and, with armed guards standing by, moved out of the area under a tarp on a flatbed truck.

“We doubt that this could be an UFO. We want a proper person to investigate this.”

Investigate what? Four bells of about 6 pixels each? Looks like you got some dirt or something on your CCD array.

There is a blade like that of a rotary lawnmower in the bottom of each bell. The bells are released from the control UFO and drop to the ground to make crop circles. Then they return to the mother ship.

UFO B LIST PING

INTERESTING.

Given that what . . . every 3-7 days there’s some slight tweak up in terms of sightings, photos, experts, whistle-blowers . . .

HOW ON EARTH can any rational well read bloke even fantasize that the powers that be are not playing this like a piano toward some deliberate end?

Have they succeeded in making virtually everyone—including shocking numbers of FREEPERS equal to the walking dead? At least the walking deaf and blind?

In France they tell the children the Easter Bells bring candy on Easter morning. That must be what these are.

I like the helicopter idea. Note that the lighting on the objects shows the same phase as the moon, which it ought to.

We can estimate the angular size of the objects by comparing them to the 30’ angular size of the moon. Using

object/inset X inset/moon X 30’ =

25/300 X 43/81 X 30 ‘ = 1.3’

and estimating an object size of 3 meters, I get a distance of just about 8 km.

It does not say where in The People’s Republic of Maryland these were sighted. Depending on where it was makes a big difference.

Pardon my lame attempt at humor. FWIW, I am a long time Art Bell fan and miss him on Coast to Coast. I am also very interested in the UFO phenomenon and look forward to posts from JPB and Quix.

You're pardoned. My bad. I was in a rare pissy mood that day. No harm, no foul. I like Art, too.

Mostly, I get tired of nay-sayers coming on these threads and making jokes about everything that comes down the road on UFOs. Maybe because they are scared and can't deal with reality, or for whatever lame reason. :>)

Personally, I'm a two-time CE-1, and I know better about some of this stuff and it gets frustrating sometimes enlightening others who are "Way Deep Into Nothing Special" mode all the time!

Regards. SOT :>)

The bottom one would also then be a helicopter, but I can’t tell what kind it would be.

Or the bottom one could be a slingload under the middle object.
