UFOs in Texas

At the risk of winding up mentholated....

Anybody else seen the news about Stephenville Texas UFO sightings?

Story

To bad there wasn't any video or pictures.

Re: UFOs in Texas

None of the explanations are very good from any of the people interviewed (i've watched vids from a variety of stations). That usually means it can be explained away as simply something odd they saw in the sky. Perhaps a low-flying meteor in the process of breaking up.

Re: UFOs in Texas

A mile long, half mile wide, low flying meteor? At the distances these guys are talking about...that would have been the last thing they saw. May have been the last thing anyone in those parts saw if it were that.

Re: UFOs in Texas

I hope they don't become irrationally afraid. It could've been one of ours and most likely were. It also could've been holographic.


(yes, we can do that now)

Re: UFOs in Texas

I heard about this. Someone posted it on the Current Events IGN board.

I am personally not sure what it could be. With the details mentioned and the credibility of the witnesses (law enforcement, pilots) I think this one might get filed in the unexplained section. I recall hearing MUFON is going to investigate.

Re: UFOs in Texas

Since the invention of the radio wave, we've seen an phenomenal increase of UFO activity and sightings. Coincidence? I'm not sure. But I'm not entirely sure what to make of the idea that there may be intelligences out there capable of traversing the known universe either. Seems like a feat that defies everything we've ever thought we've understood about the whole notion of it. I'm sure Mentholated can explain it to us.

Re: UFOs in Texas

Well, I'll explain one thing to you. At the speed of light matter will cease to exist, therefore they do not travel in our dimension to get here. There are many more dimensions than you are taught in school. (12, I believe)

Our world is in the process of moving to a less dense dimensionality, and that is one reason why they're coming here.

Of course!


Anyway, Stephenville is only about twenty minutes away from my town. I was thinking of driving down there to see all the Roswell kooks that are inevitably going to be invading.

Re: UFOs in Texas

I'm pretty sure the roswell craft was one of ours too, Cing. Why would anyone "invade"? If anyone got footage, its already on the internet. This is just a publicity stunt by our government to acclimate us to disclosure, coming soon, to a clinton administration near you.

Re: UFOs in Texas

30 Something people claim to see it and not a single one of them took a picture with a cell phone?

Well, it is in a rural area. People are not so clickity in the sticks. But still, it is amazing that there isn't even a blurry shot of some kind.

@cing, don't forget the tinfoil hat.

If I had to live in that town I would be praying for abduction too.

Re: UFOs in Texas

The aliens were in Texas looking for their leader, George.
