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."

"I read 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."

I read the same thing several years ago - that first the scare would be 'global cooling', and if that doesn't work then they would try 'global warming'. (Don't ask me who "they" is! LOL!) and the idea of using staged threats of an alien invasion was included. Some book about conspiracies, world domination, etc.

Now, where did I put that tinfoil hat......

Personally, I hope its just our guys flying the latest tech vehicles out of Roswell. News like this, and I believe it could be legit, makes you realize how critical it is to be the first to have certain technologies.

Here's my vote to increase the defense budget right now. Even before morning before coffee. I don't want any invisible Chinese or Russian planes flying over the USA:)

Keep up the good work, militechies.

artifact also artefact (är´te-fàkt´) noun

See also:

Ockham's razor also Occam's razor (òk´emz) noun
A rule in science and philosophy stating that entities should not be multiplied needlessly. This rule is interpreted to mean that the simplest of two or more competing theories is preferable and that an explanation for unknown phenomena should first be attempted in terms of what is already known. Also called law of parsimony.

[After William of Ockham.]

It's amazing what tricks that swamp gas, migrating geese, and the planet Venus can do. < /sarcasm>
