Iread an article the other day that the next global threat would be from aliens and that it would be a hoax. Makes one wonder doesn't it.

Isn't that the tail light pattern of a '67 "Bel Air?

I'm curious if those two sets of three dots actually moved in unison or if they moved about individually.

If this pic was taken using a LWIR camera that would normally be used for target acquisition the objects should be in focus and exhibit sharp edges. The objects "light up" in a way that suggests that they are not warm bodies but pseudo point sources of light. These can be simulated by directing a light beam (having LWIR content) onto a partially reflective surface and then using the camera to photograph the reflected images. It would be easy to simulate erratic movement by simply moving the directed beams. The apparent displacement would simulate high speed movement. Another indication of authenticity would be if the background temperature could be determined by data in the IR picture. LWIR cameras often have a radiometric capability to help determine target characteristics. The background should be colder than room temperature by a large margin. If it is not, it is phony. Simply put, from the evidence presented, these are bogus.
