Infrared picks up invisible UFOs

The Mexican air force has released video footage of 11 unidentified flying objects that were only visible via an infrared camera.

The objects reportedly flew around a military surveillance plane, Reuters reported.

Jamie Maussan, a journalists and UFO enthusiast, told reporters yesterday the objects seemed "intelligent" because at one point they changed direction and surrounded the plane that was chasing them.

"They were invisible to the eye but they were there, there is no doubt about it. They had mass, they had energy and they were moving about," Maussan said after showing a 15-minute video. He says Mexico's Defense Ministry gave him permission to show the footage.

According to Reuters, the government confirmed the video was shot by the air force on March 5 over the eastern coastal state of Campeche as the aircraft looked for drug traffickers near the Gulf of Mexico.

"We are not alone! This is so weird," one of the pilots can be heard yelling, the news service reported. The plane's crew had just switched on the infrared camera after first picking up the objects by radar.

The objects were described as blobs of light that hover in formation or dart about, sometimes disappearing into a cloud.

One of the pilots said he became nervous after the objects surrounded the plane.

"There was a moment when ... the screens showed they were behind us, to the left and in front of us. It was at that point that I felt a bit tense," said Maj. Magdaleno Castanon told Maussan on a separate piece of videotape.

"This is historic news," Maussan said.

"Hundreds of videos (of UFOs) exist, but none had the backing of the armed forces of any country. ... The armed forces don't perpetuate frauds."

Trouble is, after seeing some of the things I have, I wouldn't automaticly discount it.

Put the pipe down, dude.

Er...I think the Mexican Air Force actually bought US planes.

An oldie but goodie: in the late 70s I remember reading UFOs, the Eye and the Camera, by Adrian Vance. They are interdimensional beings. It is most likely out of print, but might be worth trying to find a copy.

Anything is possible. Sort of like the "religion of peace".

In our observed reality, there are several hundred billion galaxies, each with several hundred billion stars. What are the statistical chances that we are alone in the universe? Zero.

There are some things that are quite unexplainable. For those that have never seen anything unusual it is easy for them to discount the idea. For those that have experienced sightings , without going into detail, questions always linger.

"...the next global threat would be from aliens and that it would be a hoax"

Some German rocket scientist, Werner von Braun (Sp?) wrote this decades ago, supposedly.

The Mexican Air force?? Balsa planes with beans for fuel.

Trouble is, they only move in spurts and perform best right after supper...

Nothing to see here folks. The Mexican Air Force has announced that way back in the '50's they dropped some crash dummies from parachutes from the New Mexican border, which apparently went through the same time warp that the USAF dummies went through when they went back in time to land in 1947 in Roswell. But apparently, these went FORWARD in time to end up swarming around the Mexican Air Force plane just recently. Thank you, that is all. No more questions, por favor.

True. Once in Colorado my three kids and I ALL saw the same UFO at the same time. Since then when we have watched shows on TV about unexplained UFOs we have seen photos of UFOs just like the one we all saw. It was huge and it sure looked real.

When I was a kid, our neighborhood gang would all sit out late at night, after dark, and watch for UFOs. We usually saw some. That was in the 1950s in Okla.

Is there any indication of what size these "blobs" of light were, that were filmed? Were they the size of the aircraft or smaller or what, I wonder?

But as the late great Sagan often said, despite the "billions and billions" of galaxies and stars out there, if we can't figger out how to get there, they obviously can't git HERE. Good thinkin', Carl.

Too bad we didn't take a photo. We just weren't all that shocked at seeing it, at the time. Now we wish we had a photo. But all four of us saw it. Can't all imagine or dream the same thing.

I read an article about India's experimental radiation treatments on beans - to reduce flatulence.

Maybe that's what those glowing dots are.

I will ask each one of my three kids, grown now, to describe the UFO. I will see if they all still describe it the same way. It was right by our hotel. I can still close my eyes and see it all.
