You are not in the bible. Do you exist?
I would suspect that the AF is having alot of things they need to cover up on this episode...and it relates to some recon vehicle. The funny thing is that they ought to utilize their huge area in central Neveda, and not go out across the nation...unless they are prepared for discovery.
Just providing cover for the new top secret technology.
She can mind meld with me anytime!
OK, thanks
Maybe
They crash a lot. Perhaps they can fly between galaxies well enough, but not driving the saucer without running into the planet would indicate a residual eye-hand coordination that these evolved beings may have lost.
There is talk at some other forums (www.abovetopsecret.com) that the MSM is being used by the government to stage a “mock” UFO attack to build up sentiment in building up weapons and the military even more so than the other superpowers like the newly emblazed USSR and China on just the pretense its for anti-alien warfare and not against them, its going to be an interesting 2008.
40 years ago we had aircraft that was literally 40 years ahead of everybody else, so what could Area 51 or any Skunk Works have now? I remember seeing a really fast moving object in the sky in Salinas, CA one evening back in around 1988 that was moving I would guess at maybe 5,000mph and possibly about 50,000ft. up and left a series of “puffs” in its contrail, I think it was the Aurora back then, even now the military refuses to say it exists but of course it has to be because its Made in USA. Myself I think this whole affair in Texas is an attempt to “condition” the public to a supposed UFO presence. There was also recently supposedly an alien radio message caught on satellite at Arecibo that was far above anything recorded to date. Personally I think it was planted there even debunked enough to make the tinfoil hatters believe it even more so, again I am being neutral on all this until I see it myself.
I don't believe in coincidences but something is up and is affecting that band in multiple locations.
Yes, but they also usually contain hysterical hyperbole and conspiracy theories.....LOL!
When some of the really cool planes used in the Iraq war were first publicly televised, I said “Ah!” and pondered the ‘mystery’ no more.
My belief is, that, if they are showing us *these* marvels of technology now, what do they have stashed away that they have *not* shown us, yet?
We have a magnificent military and the equipment they invent never ceases to amaze me.
[hey....there’s 3 guys in black suits at my door...gotta go now]
;-D
Heck if I know.
Hubby’s the plane-head and can name all the A and B-things and C-whatevers, not me....:)
What do we have that can “fly” ~really~ slow, almost to the point of hovering?
Whatever we have that does that, that’s what it was.
[wasn’t that just the least technically knowledegable answer you’ve *ever* received?]....LOL!
The only aircraft that *I* am aware of that can fly like that is a Harrier and this wasn’t a Harrier.
Beyond that, I’m drawing a total blank.
......;]
Don’t post that picture again. You don’t know what it
does to me.
I had a best friend for years and years who earlier worked at Nellis (Groom Base) in the mid 80s as an electronic tech on the “Wobbly Goblin” as they referred to it then (I did manage to get that out of him after they were declassified). He told me, in a very oblique and circumspect way, that he saw some sort of aircraft on the taxiway right after his commuter flight from McCarren, that absolutely left his jaw drop. I know he was told to forget about ever seeing it. My impression from his body language was that it was something really far out, not just a new generation of stealth fighter or something. I asked him if I would recognize it as an aircraft, but I didn’t get an answer. Wish I would have got a chance to visit one of those Area 51 overlooks before they were closed.
It was after a line of really bad thunderstorms had passed, and the weather report said another front was on its way. (Mid-Michigan, typical summer weather.)
I went outside to scan the sky for tornados (having seen one heading my way in similar weather, which fortunately broke up before getting too close).
While scanning the sky (clear blue sky, with a few "after the storm" type clouds) I saw a black dot on the western horizon, perhaps a quarter or half mile to the north. My first thought was "bird" -- but, it didn't seem to be moving. My second thought was "idiot with kite, sheesh!"
After a few minutes, though, I noticed that it was slowly moving closer to me. Back to "bird?" -- or, "kite, with broken string?"
As it was moving toward the east, it was also moving slightly to the south, and, losing altitude (when first spotted, it was, rough guess, two or three thousand feet up).
By the time it was nearly at my east/west position, it had gotten far enough to the south that it was nearly overhead -- and, only a few hundred feet in altitude.
It was obvious by then that it was neither a kite nor a bird. It was roughly the size of a fighter jet -- black -- silent -- NO engine ports, intakes, propellers, or vertical stabilizers.
It was nearly round -- a rounded triangle shape, with a sharp notch in the rear. It had a small cabin on top.
It was meandering around the sky, it reminded me of a fish slowly swimming -- nose was always pointed in the direction it was moving, but it was moving VERY slow -- not more than perhaps 5MPH or thereabouts. Just wandering around aimlessly -- and, drifting to the east.
It was also rocking from side to side, like a rowboat. (That was why I was able to notice that there was a cabin on top.)
I ran inside, got a spotting scope but, it was so humid outside that the lens immediately fogged up with a thick heavy coat (house had AC running). Wiped it off and it instantly re-coated. Ran back in, got a monocular (half a binocular, that had been converted into a monocular) -- same deal. So, I just kept eyeballing it.
Shortly after it passed my east/west position, the easterly drift picked up speed, and within about thirty seconds it was gone over the eastern horizon.
Fast-forward a few years...
I am in a social setting, having casual conversation with some folks, one of which is a fairly high-ranking officer (I won't mention the branch of military, other than "USA"). I thought, hmm, I wonder if he'd know what it was?
So, I decided to ask. I described what I saw, and asked if he knew what it was.
Now is where it gets interesting. This guy was a bit of an extrovert -- a "life of the party" type guy. Well, he instantly froze in his tracks -- got this really worried look on his face -- and blurted out something like, "I don't know what it is. It's not one of ours. That's all I can tell you." and then silence. Dead silence. Everyone just sat there freaked out, because his reaction was so weird -- so completely out of character for him. It took a while before anyone said anything, and eventually things got back to normal.
Fast forward a day. I am talking with the woman who was his dinner date (she, a licensed psychologist, employed by the government). She tells me that it freaked her out too -- so, after they were alone, she asked him what it was. She thought that without all those other people there, he'd be more open.
She said he went right back into that same routine, clammed up, and refused to discuss it.
So, you tell me.
I don't talk about this too much. I don't like getting ridiculed. But, I know what I saw. Or, rather, I know that I saw "something". It was NOT "a light in the sky" or "the planet Venus" or "a stealth fighter" (one suggestion that someone once offered up as an explanation). Stealth fighters have engines -- and, they need to move to stay airborne!
If you check my posting history, you'll see that I've been here for quite a few years, and that I am not a bullshitter. I'm not making this up. I did see what I described, but I have no idea what it was.
Thanks.
