UFO report

Ok guys, I saw my first "UFO" yesterday. I've waited to see if anyone else in my area reported anything but so far no news. This is what I saw.

I was driving on 23thrd street at 1410 Sunday October 25 between Market Street and the Airport. Off to my left I saw what appeared to be a bright white cigar shaped object surrounded by a slight blurriness. It's difficult to really judge how big it was or how far away but it was low enough to be momentarily hidden by trees. It had the flight characteristics of a helicopter in some ways. It was hidden twice by trees as I drove along and the third time it went behind trees I was unable to see it again. I had it in sight for maybe 2 minutes. It changed it's aspect toward me three times, at first looking like a cigar and as it slowly turned it become more of a small round ball and then as it continued to move it become more cigar shaped again. If I had to guess i would say it was the size of a small plane about 1 mile away and less than 2000 feet in altitude but this is pure guess work. I did see a commercial airliner fly close to it but I couldn't really judge which one was closer.

Re: UFO report

Hello Moon, The problem with UFO sightings now is with all the new tech and with area 51 we don't know now if it is a new futuristic air craft invented by our government or another government.

Re: UFO report

hi William,
do you have any evidence to support your claims? Surely,
somewhere down the line, one of these guys dead or alive would have had some DNA sequencing done on them. I find it highly unprobable that a forensic anthropologist or scientist would hold back that kinda information.The Bermuda triangle is an anomaly for sure, but what evidence do you have that USO's have been spotted there.
I wouldn't even trust the accuracy of pictures{if you have them} due to the magnetic field. And , why does your super race feel the need to punish us? Is it about being good or bad???? the choices that we have made through out history, are exactly that;choices. The outcome could have been beneficial or not-we learn-we make educated choices thereafter.William, you obviously came to Hypography to learn about science, not science fiction.

I firmly believe that their is an advanced race of people and they live inside of a mountain right here on earth. Many sightings have been reported in the Bermuda
triangle of UFO'S going into the water and seen underwater. UFO'S could be the
answer to all the lost aircraft and ships that have disappeared in the Bermuda triangle.

If the advanced race has a base in the Bermuda triangle they would be protecting
their base from being seen by aircraft and ships and take them out. This would explain
the disappearance of all the airplanes and ships.

I also believe that the advanced race are people just like us and have children that
are living among us. I believe that some of these children have grown up and become
walk on's and work in all the governments of the earth and report directly to this advanced race of people.

I believe that this advanced race is in total control of all governments. I believe that
they have a direct phone line into all governments. If the leaders of governments don't
abide by what the advanced race wants done then that government is punished. These
people are far advanced over us and are watching every move being made by all governments. With nuclear power now in place that could destroy the world, they are
watching and will soon have to move in and take over the world before we destroy
ourselves.

With the world in such a huge mess, it could be a boon to mankind for an advanced
race to come in and save this world....Yea

I believed I might a get a more serious response from this,
I believe you are telling twice told tales about things that have pretty much been discounted many years ago. I believe every one should believe in something so I believe I'll have another beer.

Seriously Honey, the stuff you are talking about was totally discounted by even the true believers many decades ago. where did you dig this stuff up? The possibility that an alien would be human looking enough to blend into our population is so remote as to be impossible, to actually interbreed with us is several orders of magnitude less likely. I can see the possibility of alien visitation (unlikely but possible) but for aliens to be that much like us is just not with in the realms of anything other than Star Trek.

Re: UFO report

i thought i saw one today too, then i looked back to crosexamine myself, and what looked like a perfect UFO was a weird angle on a weirdly shaped, and surprisingly low-flying plane... Are you sure it had no wings and was not a blimp or a balloon of some sort?

What scares me most is that those Greys appear to be Republicans. Take a look at this most recent Crop Circle:

I wish I could have kept it in sight longer, it wasn't exactly what I expected a UFO to look like but it was rather oddly surrounded by a blurry cloud and it was very bright white. It moved and changed direction too quickly to be a blimp or a balloon, I kept expecting to see wings as it changed it's aspect to me but I never did. 2 minutes is a long time to watch an airplane and not see it's wings. I live in the flight path of our local airport so I see a lot of airplanes, commercial, private and military. This thing flew and moved like a helicopter. But I've never seen a bright white helecopter surrounded by a cloud.

Re: UFO report

Could that have been a perception trick? the bright cloud being in a different place spacially then the object, playing effectively a trick on your perception of it? (i do a fair amount of photo and i do some magic to know how perception can play tricks on one's mind)
