UM-Bot Posted April 23, 2014 #1 Share Posted April 23, 2014 A commercial pilot with more than 30 years of experience believes he witnessed something unusual. The self-confessed skeptic had been looking up at the sky with his friends on Friday evening when they spotted two colored lights floating up in to the heavens.

toast Posted April 23, 2014 #5 Share Posted April 23, 2014 How do you know it's a Vulcan ship? That planet is many light years away, The pilot was tunneled by electro-fog to that location, so no problem about the distance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoser Posted April 23, 2014 #6 Share Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) The pilot was tunneled by electro-fog to that location, so no problem about the distance. No no no. That's only the Bermuda Triangle. Can you prove that such fog exists on Vulcan? Edited April 23, 2014 by zoser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merc14 Posted April 23, 2014 #7 Share Posted April 23, 2014 (edited) Not a very good write up. The first two lights seemingly have nothing to do with the third that took off horizontally across the sky. Speed isn't guessed at, just that it is faster than a lantern. No mention of how long the lights were present either. No mention of the camera used or how that image was blown up so no help there. The color is identical to what an afterburner looks lke at night. If you look you'll see two plumes in the center but the "wings" are unexplainable without seeing the original photo. They may be artifacts leftover from the enlargement process. An afterburner being lighted on a tactical aircraft, probably an F-18, at night is my guess but can't clear it up without access to the original image and more data.

zoser Posted April 23, 2014 #13 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Not much else to do with a UFO on the interwebz. I am not sure I agree. Piecing together evidence from the last 70 years suggests something out of this world (or time or both). Rendlesham being a prime example. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paperdyer Posted April 23, 2014 #14 Share Posted April 23, 2014 If we're guessing, yes, it's a UFO for now. Yes as the lights were unidentified and flying, the objects are Unidentifeid Flying Objects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawken Posted April 23, 2014 #20 Share Posted April 23, 2014 The object was witnessed over Australia and the witness was a skeptic and wishes to be discreet. C'mon P, you the guy, admit it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merc14 Posted April 24, 2014 #21 Share Posted April 24, 2014 The object was witnessed over Australia and the witness was a skeptic and wishes to be discreet. C'mon P, you the guy, admit it.. Admit what? He saw a light in the sky so I am to think it is a ship from another start system? Can we at least see the raw image? There is nothing here. Nothing and being a pilot does not make you a reliable expert at evaluating lights in the sky. If he was up in the air I'd say he has an advantage but not on the ground.

Occams Razor Posted April 24, 2014 #22 Share Posted April 24, 2014 It's a phoenix. Case Closed....Next! It would be interesting to know the direction of travel... is it flying away from the camera, which would suggest the shape of an aircraft, or towards the camera, which would suggest the shape of a bird.

psyche101 Posted April 24, 2014 #23 Share Posted April 24, 2014 The object was witnessed over Australia and the witness was a skeptic and wishes to be discreet. C'mon P, you the guy, admit it.. Can't have been me mate, my eyesight went down, and even though I am on the mend, in the dark it is still pretty bad. I would not have seen it. But I can see that photo. And I would very much like to see the original, I have a feeling the original date stamp might well be the 15th of April, combined with an out of focus lends. Out of focus is my specialty at the moment! How would this look with a fuzzy focus applied to it? Get the timing right to capture the flare, drop some focus and hey presto, one Caloundra UFO. Former skeptic my backside. Didn't take much for him to scream UFO from the rooftops. Bloody larrikin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JesseCuster Posted April 24, 2014 #25 Share Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) I'm interested to know if the following photograph is what came off the pilot's camera and has merely been cropped and/or resized or if it has been "enhanced" like a lot of the stuff that gets run through the digital processing machine before ending up on UM.
