UFOs spotted by Navy engineer above the M5 motorway
Telegraph (U.K.) ^ | 7-02-08 | Lucy Cockcroft

A Royal Navy aircraft engineer claims to have seen a "glowing" UFO hover over the M5 motorway.

Michael Madden, 25, said he watched in disbelief as the disc-shaped object floated above his head before it "zoomed off at incredible speed".

He said the unidentified flying object flew for up to three minutes above junction 21 of the M5, near Weston-super-Mare, Somerset.

Mr Madden was on his way back from Manchester with colleague Michael Casson, 22, at 9.50pm on Sunday June 29 when he saw the suspected 'extra-terrestrial' craft....

There has been over 50 years of ET and not ONE single confirming evidence.
...
The idea that all governments in the world know but cover it up is just BS.

Yeah! And no Government would lie about a thing like that!

OLYMPUS MONS - A report released by the Martian Government today claims that an investigation into sightings of strange wheeled craft on the planet has been completed. According to an anonymous government source, the report concludes that the objects, reported by witnesses to be intelligently controlled and not of Martian origin, are in fact weather balloons wrapped in ball lightning being blown across the planet surface by swamp gas. Or they are the planet Venus. (AP)

For ETs to exist, it requires all the known laws of Physics to be overturned...

That was the single most difficult thing for my husband (an extremely aviation-savvy guy -- he makes his living in the field) to wrestle with when he and his son and some neighbors saw a craft shaped like an upside-down pie-plate (with windows in the side, no less) floating over their neighborhood years ago. He had to make a choice: either lie to himeself and deny seeing what he saw, or accept the fact that the "known laws of physics" were faulty indeed.

No, it wasn't the prospect of alien creatures that bugged him. It was the fact that silent anti-gravity, or something that sure looked like it! -- and the ability to move at mind-boggling speed, exist regardless of what we currently undersand of physics.

In early 2002 my mother and I were heading home from the grocery store in Green River Wyoming.

We were stopped at a red-light (about three or cars back in afternoon traffic) and a bit of motion caught our eyes.

This is very difficult to describe, so please bear with me.

It was almost clear. Imagine looking through leaded glass. Very wavery. (sp?)

It was going about the same speed as your average jet.

It was flying below cloud level and my best guess is that it was the size of a football field. Absolutely huge.

The front edge was sharp and curved and the only indication that anything was there was that perfectly straight wavery space. The wavery line got longer as if it were leaving a contrail as wide as the object itself.

A horn honked and I realized that almost everyone at the light was staring at the object. The light was almost back to yellow before someone noticed and things began moving again.

This was much too sharp-edged to have been a weather phenomena and I’ve never seen anything which came close to this. Something solid *was* there.

I don't know *what* we saw. I do *believe* that we saw a very good attempt to "cloak" a ship. Had it been night it would've been completely undetectable to the eye.

I can understand how someone witnessing the same thing would jump to the conclusion that this was extra-terrestrial, but I'm willing to accept the possibility that we're smart enough to come up with something this advanced for ourselves.

I knew a young man who was walking home late at night (no drugs or alcohol involved! lol!) and saw a huge triangular-shaped craft silently and slowly drifting over Ft. Stewart, GA. It was so low that it bent some of the taller tree-tops and made absolutely no noise at all. (scared the crap out of him and he was *not* happy to share this story.)

There are hundreds of reliable witnesses who have seen objects moving at impossible speeds, turning at right angles and flying in formation.

Again, are we this good? I really hope so! But it is hard to imagine us mastering this level of technology when we’re still strapping rockets to our butts to get into space. When it’s eventually found out what these objects are, I’m OK either way. The universe is much too vast for me to close my mind to the possibility that there are other “people” out there, but I also think we’re capable of much more than the majority of us can dream.

THANKS FOR YOUR FINE POST and kind comment.

My relative insists we got our technologies re such from ET’s.

they tend to be sighted in the months preceding an event which is considered major by humans

Is there any documentation of this?

I’m waiting on one to land on my front lawn and deliver a pizza and a 6-pack of beer to my doorstep. Wait, wait, wait. I guess it’s free, more than 30 mins....

With regard to the fascinating photo, I think it is simply a plane flying by. The lights are sharp, and are in a repeating pattern. The moon is slightly fuzzy, as you might expect with a 5 second exposure of a very slowly moving object. My humble opinion is that the lights above the moon are sharp because they show a repeating flash - about a second between flashes - and so you are seeing four repetitions of the pattern.

Some on the ATS thread agree with you.

http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread367991/pg1

However, most disagree.

I think a plane would have been fewer light images and that they would have been much more blurred.

Much appreciate your thoughtful comment.

Not sure what the tally is now.

More may agree with you than I thought.

I still don’t think it’s a plane.

Blessings,

I believe you and others have seen ‘something” but thinking it is aliens beings from another solar system is not the answer that I would come up with. But I could be wrong and will gladly admit it if this turns out to be what people are seeing. There is going to have to be more proof, for me, than a cell phone photo.

I fully agree with you. My point was simply that there are objects flying around which are beyond the scope of the average person's experience and that it could go either way.

These are UFO's in the truest sense of the word and we don't know from where they originate.

Given your criteria - I’m curious as to how many atheists believe in ETI. The scientific method does not support it.

“For them to just exist, and say, sit happily on their planet trillions of light-years away, doesn’t break any laws of physics.”

Yes, I agree, but when I say ET, I am referring to Extras that are visiting Earth.
ETs would have to break OUR KNOWN laws of physics to get here.

Anecdotal reports of sitings mean nothing to me.
The same for Bigfoot and all the other things reported
on kook to kook. Just look at those chemtrails, hahaha
