  • Did you see the NASA video that shows a bolt of energy from the earth narrowly miss..

    ...what appeared to be a UFO? It was taken from above as part of a constant video feed.

    Looked real to me...

      Yeah, I vaguely remember that from some show or other. Nice if it was real, but sadly there's probably a perfectly rational explanation for it.

        Ned, sorry...I've seen it twice now on the tube but have no link to it on the internet. Don't know how to search for such a thing. Any ideas?

        Paul, I wouldn't buy any 'rational explanation'. That was a bolt of energy fired at a UFO, which changed direction to avoid the energy. That's what it was. No weather balloon in sight!

          OK, what channel was carrying the report or story or whatever.

            THe SciFi Channel?
            Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

              The first time was of the NASA channel, and they were explaining that it was not what it obviosly was. The second time was on a UFO type show.

              Che, nope, not SciFi. I'm telling you guy, looked like someone was blasting away at a UFO. The only object moving, in space, and this enegy bolt comes up a second after it jogged.

                  On second thought, maybe that's an old video. I'll let you know, and keep searching if it turns out not to be it.

                      If thats the one I think it is (sorry, can't download right now) then if it is an actual weapon its like no weapon thats ever been hinted at.
                      It isn't a missile/rail gun and its certainly not photonic or a charged particle beam which, realistically, leaves some sort of pulsed plasma weapon.

                      ie: Its not us shooting at the little grey guys.
                      Its the tall blue guys shooting at the little grey guys from one of their subterranean bases.
                      Not very sociable but then the tall blue guys never are really.

                          I guess pissing off everyone on earth isn't enough for the neocons.
