    Sorry, what are you seeing here in the first few seconds? Cant see it
    Have seen some videos before of UFOs going straight into Volancanos in Mexico

    Enlarge the screen and it's as clear as day, an object top middle of the screen in the first few seconds comes out from behind the plume and shoots straight up in the blink of an eye.

    With the Falcon Lake incident in Canada where a craft came down and landed only a few yards from Stefan Michalak, he claimed that the craft emitted a smoke/gas that smelt of sulphur and interestingly also the very gas also comes from Volcanoes.

    i have looked at that video loads of times now and i dont see a thing, also coming from a volcano would not be surprised if it was a giant boulder getting blown out of the volcano

    I see what he is talking about now

    Black circular object comes out to the right, hovers for a sec then shoots up

    The older I get the less I believe in Alien piloted craft and more in atmospheric phenomenon including ball lightening, some aerial phenomenon not identified as yet, but certainly not powered craft from other planets.

    I would have to witness an unidentified craft in broad daylight to believe that it wasn't man made or man powered. It would have to be almost silent and capable of impossible G-Force manouvers.

    I do live in hope, and I look at the sky a lot but nothing so far has appeared for me :(

    I really need to see a whopping great Alien spacecraft in broad daylight to be convinced, so if anyone has some footage that would be much appreciated. No grainy wobbly far off light behind a tree please ....

    Chinese lanterns & kites have a lot to answer for :)

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,639 ✭✭✭completedit


    I always find this an area where a rigged religion of empiricism, rationalism and skepticism has taken the fun and more importantly, the wonder out of the question. Everyone always has a rational explanation for everything until the one day, it turns out that everything we thought to be true is turned on its head. Reading the book 'Black Swan' at the moment and thought of the topics of UFO's.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,029 ✭✭✭Rhys Essien


    Interesting video put up a few days ago by Russian Cosmonaut Ivan Wagner on the Space Station where he speaks about 'Space guests'.

    Hilarious replies telling him he was only seeing the SpaceX satellites. You would think a trained Cosmonaut would know the difference.

    Well we don't have alien space craft to compare against, so he has nothing to know the difference from.

    There was a big reduction in sightings When camera phones were invented .

    I wonder did any of the pilots on the three passenger planes get any pictures or video of the UFO sighting off the South West coast of Ireland in 2018?

    Well we don’t know because the Irish Aviation Authority never revealed the results of their report.

    Any Irish journalists out there willing to find out the answers.

    I'm an actual scientist and I've attended skeptics conferences. You'd be amazed how actually unscientific they are.

    For example there's a recent incident where an airforce commander called Dave Fravor sighted a UFO, followed by another pilot got it on the radar.

    A sceptic called Mick West stated the pilot with 4000 hours flight experience and brand new radar system were seeing a bird. The pilots stated that they were seeing some sort of aircraft with manoeuvres not capable with current engineering and even knowledge of physics. the radar and FLIR back it up in terms of speed and manoeuverability, yet the sceptic thinks they seen a bird.

    To me that isn't just unscientific, that's f-ing stupid. I don't agree with labelling anything UFO aliens but the pilots didn't do that. They said a craft.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,995 ✭✭✭Ipso


    The pilots may have said craft, but UFO nuts just go with alien of the gaps. I read West's twitter feed and he is exhausting all earthly possibilites.

    I remember about 15 years ago at dusk seeing these 3 red spots in the sky. They were lined up in a straight vertical line.
    After about 30 seconds the lower red spot gradually got smaller then completely disappeared. The same thing then happened to the one above it and then the 3rd one.
    Was kinda weird

    Many years ago I saw something very strange in my housing estate. Myself and my friend were standing outside his house one evening when a hole opened up in the clouds and an object came down and shone a light on one of the houses. It stayed there for about 10 seconds and then went back up in the sky and the hole closed up again. This was before we had camera phones unfortunately.

    Your housing estate was so rough it scared off an alien invasion?

    It was suggested they were meteorites, yet they were seen flying off in a different direction at high speed. 3 pilots confirmed this. Pilots would be careful to speak out about these type of sightings as it would be damaging to their career, being known as the pilot who sees strange things as he or she flies a plane.

    Richard Dolan's latest interview is insightful.

    Also, this article makes me feel that we are on the cusp of finding out something very interesting. The two journalists seem to be credible and they have confirmed in an interview since that they did not reveal all of what they discovered from authentic sources.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,402 ✭✭✭McGinniesta


    This is an area that I neither know nor understand.

    On this basis alone it would be foolish to dismiss UFOLOGY, Supernatural or occult happenings.

    Leslie Keen isn’t credible, and neither is Tom DeLonge or others inside the circle ****.

    With all the satilite photos they take everyday no ufos have appeared. But it's like God you believe or don't believe

  • Registered Users Posts: 269 ✭✭Fuzzyduzzy


    What about Richard Dolan? I also have good faith in David Fravor. I'm not saying aliens but I do think now more than ever it is acceptable to have an open mind that crafts are in our skies that were not manufactured by humans. The Nimitz and Tic Tac (not the mint) videos along with other recent official statements certainly add weight to the question.

    Tom Delonge, unfortunately and regardless of his efforts in the field, makes it easier to discredit all other findings and reports. But I see where you are coming from.

    How do you mean? I've seen unexplained phenomena as documented in this thread. My numerous degrees and my professional role says I saw what I saw.
    No amount of distractionary drivel posted will change that.
    Aliens maybe, re belief? But UFOs?? Don't be soft.

    Not really. I’m going to wait to hear from the aliens myself for proof of their existence.

    Yes, but it's a myth isn't it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,029 ✭✭✭Rhys Essien


    Two intriguing cases here. First one known as the Kera object, where a mini ufo was found by a group of boys in Japan in 1972. Second case known as the Betz Sphere, where a mysterious metal ball was found by a family in Florida in 1974.

    Could you back up your claims about Leslie Kean? Tom DeLonge didn't write the article thank god, however Kean is a well regarded writer.

    David Fravor is the gold standard. He has over 4000 hours of flight time under his belt. His sighting was also backed up by radar.


  • Registered Users Posts: 269 ✭✭Fuzzyduzzy


    Agreed! Interesting times ahead


  • Registered Users Posts: 269 ✭✭Fuzzyduzzy


    The Bob Lazar story is interesting. Yes, his qualification history is undocumented but his claim that part of his history was erased to discredit him is evidential in the way in which he was indeed employed by Los Alamos laboratory (pay slips and his name in their phone book) and at a later court hearing (installing cctv cameras in a brothel) when he was facing 5 years imprisonment. Again, he claimed to work at Los Alamos and the judge confirmed this. This would have been the time to come clean if he had to. Los Alamos denied he ever worked there.

    Watched the documentary about Lazar by Jeremy Corbell recently and the thing that makes him so believable is that he really doesn't give a fcuk wether you believe him or not!


  • Registered Users Posts: 269 ✭✭Fuzzyduzzy


    I find that Corbell does not do him any favours though, it could have been stripped back and just told the story like it was on Joe Rogan. I'll be the first to admit that there were areas where people could raise doubt about him in the past but anyone who has looked into the story will see that gradually most of what he said has been proven.

    The new Pentagon UAP task force along with the Times article add fuel to it all.

    I wouldn't be the biggest fan of Corbells docs, the one on skinwalker for example didn't add anything new to the story, but the one on Lazar I found interesting as it gave a bit more insight into the man himself which was missing from a lot of other docs and articles about him. It was also interesting that he was raided by the FBI and other agencies during the making of it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,029 ✭✭✭Rhys Essien


    David Fravor (the US airforce pilot who spotted the tictac ufo) does a very in depth podcast with the man who will probably take over from Joe Rogan on YouTube, Lex Fridman.

    Great interview and you could listen to Fravor all day. Sound guy and very inspiring to say the least.
