AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around sharing and analyzing various UFO videos. Participants post links to multiple videos, including a notable flying saucer clip from the BBC and a NASA shuttle video featuring a bright object that appears to move rapidly. Users express skepticism about the authenticity of these videos, discussing potential explanations such as video compression artifacts and reflections. Some suggest that certain movements could be attributed to camera panning rather than the object's actual motion. The conversation also touches on the possibility of hoaxes, with users debating the legitimacy of specific clips and sharing personal experiences with UFO sightings. Additionally, there are mentions of scientific investigations into UFO phenomena, particularly around Phoenix, Arizona, where unusual lights have been reported. Overall, the thread highlights a mix of curiosity, skepticism, and the ongoing quest for understanding UFO sightings through video evidence.

Here's the latest home video from Prophet Yahweh of a 10 Jun sighting.

Welcome to PF quantumkevlar. :smile:

Let's not do Yahweh. It is an obvious scam and only serves to discredit any sincere reports.

Heres a video about the Belgian triangle:

www.subversiveelement.com/files/belgian.ram

Speaking are belgian military personel, including one of the F-16 pilots and the general/major whatever. The radardata is also sent to the institute for electronic warfare, where the expert says that he believes it was an alien craft (he almost vomits while saying this and is afraid to get fired). He also excludes the possibility of the radars being mistaken.

He also states that the craft used 'infinite acceleration'.

What i wondered is... if we humans made this craft (which seems to be the only alternative explanation), and we have the technology for infinite acceleration, wouldn't we be on the other side of the milkyway by now?

I have always wondered what the things on this NASA video are:

http://www.areadownload.com/video/ufo/Ufo%20-%20NASA%20-%20Shuttle%20Video%2003.mpg

Especially the bright ball of light that moves towards earth, sticks around there for a minute, then moves back into space at the end of the video.

I have read about the SPRITES and ELVES, but both of those seem to be either 'upside down' lightning flashes or milisecond flashes of light a few hundred kms wide.

Here is an UFO video from Holland.
Its very similar to the mexico fleet UFOs, but this time u can (at some point in the video) clearly see these lights circling around each other. I had read about this before as being seen by eyewitnesses, but never saw it on video.

I don't think balloons can do that. On the site it says that there was news about a meteor shower on the same day, but meteors can't move like that either.

Still, not much to go on. How about birds?

I realize that to an observer this sort of thing can be compelling, esp if the objects do something extraordinary or unusual, but the first comment that comes to mind is that videos of such low quality are pretty useless. :redface:

Useless, but fun to watch. And i think some bird expert, or video expert would be able to tell if these things could be birds.

I know they appear as illuminated white dots, but whether this is a result of the zoomin in or lighting, i can't tell.

The funny thing is, even if the videos are of good or great quality, unless debunked or explained there is no knowing if they're legitimate. But I think there is value in documenting all of this. Scientists studying meteors, earthquake lights, ball lightning, sprites, jets, and ELVES, and probably other subjects as well, have found archived UFO information and footage useful for providing clues or information. One of the most notable examples was filmed back in the sixties and long thought by many to be UFO footage. In fact it was a close call - a glancing blow on the atmosphere by a city-killer sized meteor.

Of course, if there are ET UFOs...

All the videos below are from:
http://www.worldblend.net/worldblendbu/PHXLIGHTS.html

As a skeptic, I was bothered by the fact that these were sufficiently strange enough, that I litterally had no good explanation for what these might be. The local airport gave me the number for a organization called NUFORC. I decided to call and ended up speaking with a suprisingly sharp fellow named Peter Davenport. Peter and I talked several times and upon finding out I had a scientific background, he ended up asking me to look into this with a local scientist. To tell you the truth, things have only gotten stranger from that point on. I really can only tell you one thing for sure... Reality has a much greater "unfamiliar" component to it than I had previously imagined.

So basicly a bunch of scientists have been investigating the weird lights that appear around Phoenix.
Here are some of the videos from their website:

This is a documentary about operation PRATO by the brazilian army:

http://www.ufo.com.br/videos-traillers/stabolito/operacao_prato01.wmv
http://www.ufo.com.br/videos-traillers/stabolito/operacao_prato02.wmv
http://www.ufo.com.br/videos-traillers/stabolito/operacao_prato03.wmv
http://www.ufo.com.br/videos-traillers/stabolito/operacao_prato04.wmv

They speak portuguese but that doesn't matter too much, because they show many reconstructions and photos (and also actual UFO videofootage) of what happened over there.

Official documents are here:
http://www.ufo.com.br/documentop.php

Some screenshots:

These people are attacked by a UFO shooting laser beams at them (they end up in the hospital):

Here the brazilian army, sent to investigate, gets their asses kicked by a UFO:

This is part of an actual UFO video(shot by the army i think):
