U.F.O.s

I recently saw a documentry in England about the U.F.Os are much more likely to be made by the Governments of the world as opposed to alien beings. It was really convincing and displayed some clear facts. I've searched the internet for stuff about the Earth Made Saucers but have come up with nothing. Damn Government brainwashing...

The government doesn't care about honesty. Remember that and don't let them fool you.

UFO = Unearthed Foreign Object

What would their motive be for UFOs? They're actually bad for the government, such as the US. It's drawn attention, for example, to Area 51. I don't know if that is its real name, but it's no longer a secret. The government now has to admit that a testing facility is there, and if you ask me, it forced them to abandon the Aurora project.
BTW, commercial sattelite pictures of the base exist. It's just a few runways, hangers, and a nice residential complex. There's no captured spacecraft or anything like that.

I wouldn't be surprised if my US govt did that - after all, they've also been able to give the boot to so many S. American democratic leaders all cause they disagreed on our foregin policy

They just moved it to another secret location.

I've heard that many think the Aurora program has been scrapped. Besides, I can't find a use for it, other than the fact that it looks cool (or at least it probably does).

I heard they abandoned area 51 because they changed their focus from "Air & Space" to "Space & Air", so they needed more room for runways.

Just misleading everyone, the real 'Aurora' program is probably something else.

I heard the Pentagon has been looking into space weapons. I didn't actually know they were working on one.
Anyhow, this concept probably will never happen, as it is way too expensive and impractical. But I read about the "Rods from God" concept that Pentagon strategists daydream about. It's two sattelites, one for communications, the other for weapons. When the comm sattelite gets the word, the weapons sattelite launches a pure tungsten projectile to the earth. The sheer force of the impact is equal in force to a cruise missile. But from what I've been hearing, the big thing is weapons to protect civilian sattelites from attack.

When you look at UFO sightings individually and indepthly, you find that many UFO sightings can be ascribed to natural or known phenomena (meteors, unusual clouds, planes, and satellites, the planet Venus…).

Only a small percentage of UFO sightings are truly inexplicable.

You want to destroy Roswell's main tourist industry, then?

People who go out to a small town in the middle of the desert to see strange lights in the sky need to seek professional help.

I once saw a documentary about Area 51 with seemingly real scientists telling about it and saying they were testing new aircrafts and stuff. Nothing about hidden alien ships and things like that :confused:

personally i don't believe that aliens have visited earth. i think that the UFO's are secret aircraft being developed by the military. and with area 51 or whatever you want to call it was probably kept secret to protect from lawsuits by people who worked their and claimed they got sick because of some of the chemicals there.

It's an interesting subject and I dont assume anything. I have seen unexplainable things (shit that would be impossible for us to build with our current known technology) which have made me wonder what the truth really is. I wish I could play back memories to video :(

I think UFOs are just that, Unidentified. At least to the person labelling it as such, though the number of pictures I've seen that look amazingly like B2s and F117As yet are still given as proof of 'flying saucers' means that I'm inclined towards Michaelj's POV as well, as far as the objects themselves are concerned. (Plus your marsh-gas, planetary, headlights-over-the-horizon/glockenspectre and similar explanations.)

Alien intelligences, etc, are almost certainly out of the immediate picture for various reasons, but you never know, eh? :)

I once thought I saw a UFO. I stopped in the corner shop when it was dark and as I walked out of my house and went round the corner and saw a silent, round object with a light on it. Upon closer inspection, I realised that UFOs probably don't say Goodyear on them. Strange, you don't often see them in rural Dorset...

But seriously, if there really are UFOs it seems more likely that they're experimental fighter aircraft.

Look up the disclosure project and watch the testimony of several govt officials (I think there are over a hundred). I'm not saying it is indisputable proof but it sure makes you think.

it could be that UFOs and aliens are all around us but our minds arent equipped to see them because theyre too foreign a concept to visualize. Maybe if we tried focusing on invisible things we can see whats before us more clear

Hmm... its possible. However it could very well just be the government trying to make you think its them and not aliens. Which is also possible.

yes--all it requires is a slight shift in your focus

Of course UFOs are real. Would you have Roswell's tourism industry be ruined??
