Not A Ufo |
51 seconds - sparksabit Here’s an experiment which proves IMHO beyond a reasonable doubt that those mysterious streaks of lights that were captured by David Caron in Texas can easily be recreated. That’s very unfortunate for that TV-station who paid top dollars for Mr. Caron’s original tape.
9 Minutes 32 seconds - Aidan724 Traditional airships can reach altitudes of about 5,000 feet, but inventor Hokan Colting’s spherical airships reached 20,450 feet already. These flying orbs are designed to become the world’s first stratospheric satellites of the future!

2 Minutes 8 seconds - ProjectStorm As a strong believer in “UFOs”, I regret that many airplanes, helicopters, weather balloons, Chinese lanterns, stars and other perfectly explainable phenomena live a second life as “proof of an alien visitation” through youtube.
Example…
The object above “hovers” approximately 20 degrees above the horizon. When the camera zooms in, a diamond shaped object appears…
Usually, at this point, a typical UFO movie on youtube would stop right there, at the exact frame where the diamond shape appears:
“Ufology is in a state of transition and confusion today (1995). I see little evidence of serious private involvement. I see a growing interference in serious and legitimate activities of ufologists by people who have little or no background, experience, or education in the field.” (source: cufon)

Relax. This North-American F-18 flies in formation with the Boeing X-45A (video 1), an Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle (UCAV).
This next-generation pilotless fighter jet reaches subsonic speeds and has a operational range of
approximately 600 kilometers (372 miles).
Untrained eyes could easily mistake the X-45A for a UFO, since both wings are painted in black (video 2), making the wings nearly “invisible” from the ground up and giving the craft such a distinguished “illusive” shape.
Two X45A’s were build, and on August 1 2004, both were controlled in flight simultaneously (video 3) by one ground-controller. Amazingly, today… both UCAVs reside in museums.
Their successor, the X45B/C (only a mockup has been made - see picture here) was designed to have a three times greater range. Boeing hoped to accomplish autonomous aerial refueling by the year 2010.
Unfortunately for Boeing, the US Airforce and the US Navy decided NOT to invest more money in the X-45C concept. Instead Northrop Grumman’s design of an unmanned combat air vehicle - the X-47A (video 4) and X-47B (video 5) - was awarded with the contract.
Lockheed Martin worked on a similar concept of an Unmanned Air Vehicle, but the company’s (only) prototype, the Polecat P-175 (video 6), crashed December 18, 2006.
My personal views…
Secrecy? What secrecy?
I think it’s pretty amazing that these conceptual craft are no longer kept a secret.
Ufo debunkers always explain Ufos as secret military airplanes, equiped with “extremely quiet” propulsion systems, and capable of doing extreme flight manoeuvres (including hovering capabilities and quick transitions from zero speed to supersonic speeds) in an effortless way…
These “flying drones” are very noisy and can’t do any of all that. So no, I don’t buy it that these unmanned craft or any other military black project could be the reason for so many triangular ufo reports.
9 Minutes 1 Seconds - Wingedtrean A fantastic moment during the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games in 1984… A full-sized spaceship, suspended by a helicopter, overflies LA’s olympic arena. Not a UFO, but what a great show. Who knows, one day it may happen for real!
Watch it now: Ufo Closes Olympic Games.
1 Minute 7 seconds - atlanticobr Did the USAF build its own flying saucer? Some very convincing pictures made many people believe that all ufo sightings were in fact related to classified top secret military black projects.
The USAF’s flying disk flew like a typical plane, as you can clearly see in this picture compilation.
What people didn’t know was that the pictures were faked. They were created by Michael H. Schratt to “illustrate” what he “believed” were craft that probably did exist.
Of course, without that context, the pictures started a life on their own. Mister Schratt’s website usafflyingsaucers.com went offline (still accessible through the waybackmachine) and a new myth was (deliberately) born.
If you still have any doubts about the USAF’s flying disk, then have a look at these authentic pictures that were later on “used” to prove the flying disk’s existence. You’ll recognize the “base pictures” instantly!
7 Minutes 21 seconds - scismgenie When nothing “NATURAL” is left to explain UFOs, debunkers always grab their standard bag of top secret military aircraft.
In this X-plane compilation, only one aircraft is able to fly without making any noise (a glider). All the other ones are equiped with very noisy engines.
Also, not a single “top secret” aircraft you’re about to see is equiped with that powerful lighting system that so many ufo watchers have reported seeing… (you know… that system that is only installed on top secret military aircraft so that both friendly civilians AND enemy forces can easily spot them, keep track of them and shoot them down…) Sounds pretty logical to me!
