UFOs Over The Kremlin?
Boy, oh boy. For some reason, the 2009 solstice season has really given us some high-profile UFO sightings. I’m beginning to wish they’d just frickin’ land already, and get it over with…
The Russians seem to be having all the fun these days. Two separate videos of triangular or pyramidal UFOs, seen over the Kremlin, supposedly on two different dates. The first video shows what appears to be a large triangular or pyramidal UFO over Moscow’s Red Square.
I need to pay closer attention to the news wires. This daylight UFO sighting apparently took place on or about December 9th, about the time that Norway was treated to a massive blue spiral in their sky, which may or may not have been a failed Russian missile test launch.
The next video is a night-time sighting, shot from a moving car. It’s not very clear, but there does seem to be a triangular shape in the sky above the Kremlin, perhaps on December 18th. Very cool… My best advice is to click “full-screen” and watch closely.
Some sources are indicating that this second video is just disinformation, but I don’t really understand the reasoning behind that assertion. Another article on the subject can be found here.
Since the video images are so dark, I decided to grab some screen shots of still frames, and “bump them up” a bit, using Gimp, the open-source alternative to Photoshop. Here are the results. Click the images to see larger versions.
Okay. If that isn’t some seriously weird $#!+, then I’m Mary Queen of Scots. I’d be interested in seeing what other people make of this footage, and if anyone has similar results with photo enhancement programs.
(If you want to know what I did in Gimp, to get these results, just e-mail me, or leave a comment below.)
Back soon with more weirdness, or perhaps just something silly. You can never really tell with me, can you?
Oh, Those UFOs!
More UFO news last week. Yeah, I know. I should have mentioned it last week, when it was still actually news. (It’s been busy here at Maison D’Lock – sorry.) But if some of you have missed it, since the mainstream media have the attention span of a stunned guppy, let’s take a quick look.
First off, parts of Norway were treated to an amazing visual spectacle in the form of a spiraling blue light show in the sky, early on the morning of December 10th.
Looks pretty amazing! Many news services now seem to think the spiral light formation was the result of a Russian missile test launch, which failed in the upper atmosphere, going out of control. Check out the video – you can actually see the spiral rotating.
The very next day, news agencies and bloggers began reporting on the discovery of an “alien graveyard” in Rwanda, of all places. Claims of more than 200 bodies, in a 500 year old mass grave, are circulating on the ‘net.
But, given that the source seems to be the World Weekly News – home of Bat Boy, this may be more coprolite than fossil remains.
More soon, kids. Christmas approaches like a freight train on a downhill, with no brakes. I need to either get running, or get out of the way.
Peace and a happy season to you all.
UFOs? What UFOs?
Greetings, programs! I read today that our dear brothers across the pond have pulled the plug on their UFO research efforts. Yes, some 40 years after the US government did the same thing (officially, anyway) after publishing the Condon Report, the UK’s Ministry of Defence has decided that “in over 50 years, no UFO report has revealed any evidence of a potential threat to the United Kingdom.”
Well, sure. Right. No potential threat at all. Not if you believe that objects flitting through the sky above your country, at speeds you can’t hope to match, and going wherever they please, are no kind of threat. What kind of fuzzy thinking is that? Hello, McFly!
Maybe they should talk to the guys over at the Space Research Institute of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. Their deputy director, Lachezar Filipov, seems to think that the aliens are already here, and are among us now.
Or perhaps have a chat with the folks at Chicago’s O’Hare airport, who saw something quite peculiar, just over three years ago. Workers on the ground and pilots both reported seeing a huge gray disc hover over the terminal for several minutes, in November 2006. And when it left, it just shot off, straight up, punching a hole through the clouds that took a few minutes to close back up. Probably swamp gas.
Here’s the reality – there is something going on in the skies, all over the world, and it remains unexplained after more than 60 years of research. Anyone you talk to will admit that much. But turning your back on the issue and pretending it’s not a problem, or doesn’t exist, is completely irresponsible.
And that’s what the MOD has done, and so has the American government. So have many other agencies world wide. This has led to a widespread belief that the major governments know something that they refuse to share with the public at large.
So, what shall we do about it, Dave? Petition the government to show us what’s in Area 51? Throw up our hands and shrug? Move to a cabin in the wilderness?
Maybe just keep an open mind, and remain skeptical. Don’t trust everything you read. Even this. And especially not the mainstream media. Do the research for yourself. Read a few books on the subject. Maybe even watch the skies some night, instead of the frickin’ boob tube. Grab your friends, family, maybe a few beverages, and go look at the sky. Yeah, I know. Better dress warmly if you’re going to do that tonight. It’s wicked cold here in Vancouver, WA. But the viewing is great! The stars are clear and bright.
I just can’t stay out for long. My eyeballs start to freeze.
P.S. If you want to have a look at the UFO report data collected by the UK’s Ministry of Defence, since 1997, you can find it all here. There’s not a lot of detail, but what there is may convince a few folks that our sky is a busy place.
