Regarding the video in the OP. As noted above, the thing is over 40:00 and would have been an hour-long episode on TV with commercials. The rights to the NatGeo channel were bought by Discovery Network or something like that, as was turned into a...

Is there any video of the incident or is this video of eyewitnesses describing what they saw? I'm not watching a 40 minute video to find out. If it has video of the incident please include a time stamp as per the Posting Guidelines.

Does that tale end "... My daugher the microbiologist always used to criticise us both because she never had to throw more than a few grams of her experimental viruses away, because it had gained the wrong function." :-D

Interesting. After watching a bit more of the OP video (which is painfully boring) I started to have my own possible explanation. IF the MUFON report is correct and they did indeed receive 10-17 reports on the evening of 1-8-'08, then some of...

From the OP. The point I was trying to make was that if hundreds of people witnessed this event, and believed they were seeing a mile-wide flying craft with bright lights, we might expect the witnesses to act as if this were an event of...

I think we probably agree that the "hundreds" of witnesses referred to re. Stephenville in the OP is perhaps exaggerated, if we take "witnesses" to mean people who thought they were seeing an extraterrestrial craft (or something else radically...

@NorCal Dave suddenly the squiggle ufo vid (pics in post #13) was 'closest' to what allen saw jan 25 Japan interested in UFO sighting Videos are starting to = come out, Allen said. I've gotten about ten but only two are worth anything. Allen...

well you spent time conflating it with Farmington where you highlighted "100s", which is what we were discussing about Stephenville claims. I accept your clarification that you weren't implying a similarity.

Hi, new member. Name is Mike, I reside in NJ. I am a former mufon investigator. I have since quit them and started my own group and my interest is uap unexplained phenomena. My professional job is a Microsoft Systems Engineer for a local MSP...

I was actually referring to airborne tankers. We would use our radar on the aircraft but sometimes it was inoperative so we learned to join up on an aircraft in the dark that was in a holding pattern. Not an easy task. So my point was that many...

Photo of a "7" black balloon (34 inches long) at 200 feet away (measured with a rangefinder).

I don't feel that that the difference in meaning between "...large numbers" [of witnesses to a single UFO event] and "...dozens", in the same context, is really sufficiently robust for me to be accused of intellectual dishonesty.

I'm not sure accusing MUFON without evidence is intellectually honest. the MUFON guy, Robert Powell, in the OP national geographic video (13 years later) says "dozens". but if that means 24 its not so far off. Steve Allen [not MUFON] says in...

i assumed you were using the same thing as me too! lol. its so long i only looked at the bits ideamug pointed out.
