UM-Bot Posted April 27, 2015 #1 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Residents of New York City dialled the emergency services after seeing a UFO on Saturday night. The Big Apple was awash with UFO sightings during the weekend after a strange glowing orb-shaped object was spotted in the sky over the city. Some locals were so concerned about the what they had witnessed that they picked up the phone and called the police.

stereologist Posted April 27, 2015 #5 Share Posted April 27, 2015 The old swamp gas excuse came from Hynek a UFO believer. It is so funny when it looks like sarcasm is being used int his case. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawken Posted April 27, 2015 #6 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Swamp gas or a weather balloon...Obviously. Weather balloons filled with swamp gas. Helium is too expensive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calibeliever Posted April 27, 2015 #9 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Swamp gas or a weather balloon...Obviously. Weather balloons filled with swamp gas. Helium is too expensive. Don't forget the light from Venus reflecting off the surface of the swamp gas filled balloon... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paperdyer Posted April 27, 2015 #10 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Let's see, if these were near LaGuardia and flights weren't grounded, the UFOs must be radar invisible! Definitely an ET> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafterman Posted April 27, 2015 #12 Share Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) The Lyrids meteor shower peaked on Thursday and ran through Saturday. " Another witness, 57-year-old Juan Marrero, claimed to have seen a fireball and two bright streaks that moved across the sky at high speed." The ISS has also been very visible in the early evening skies above New York over the past week or so. If you've never seen it do a flyover and are prone to believing in UFOs, it can be very convincing. Edited April 27, 2015 by Rafterman 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was probably what he saw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafterman Posted April 27, 2015 #14 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I like the meteor shower thought. This was probably what he saw. Sounds like it. The thing about the ISS though is that it's really big and bright and can easily be mistaken for a fast, low flying, silent aircraft. It also moves differently than traditional aircraft as it's following the curve of the Earth as it comes over. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
