Other - sorta kinda

Some of the above; timeships with frame-vector inertialess drive. My guess is, we're getting close to some stuff impacting the rotary air-handler.

Sure is smelly in here...

Isn't that "excrement hitting the ventilating equipment?"

what I mean with other ...

I think the triangles are most likely
_secret non-government craft of terrestrial origin_.

( one could argue that this is part of the "alien" category but I assume most readers would think that "alien" implies extraterrestrial, and I am quite sure that an extraterrestrial origin is much less likely than a secret terrestrial origin. Also one could argue that any group capable to build craft like those has to have some kind of government so "secret government craft" should apply - but I assume that most readers would think that "government" only refers to known and publicly recognized governments, defined as the members of UN or similar. )

Of course there are possible border cases - is really every single branch of CIA etc. truely under governmental control ???

PS: does "secret government craft" mean a secret craft of any government, or does it mean any craft of a secret government ?

Flying Triangles

It's good to see that "alien" technology is progressing past those dull saucer and cigar shaped craft. Apparently, the Holy Virgin has passed on the word about UFOs. It seems they are simply returning arks from the time of the Atlanteans and Lemurians (refer site below). I knew there was a simple, rational explanation to their existence. It will be good when the Lemurians return ... I've heard they can be real party animals.

The Shocking Truth about Alien Spacecraft

other - my take

my take is a juxtapose between Alien and Government craft. It may sound a little too X-files for some, but for me it stacks up.
Alien for me is not just little green men, but some other power/entity/intelligence that doesn't just fit into our "alien" pigeon hole. This is some sort of "game/experiment" which demonstrates just how small,insecure,paranoid WE are as a human race.
Question everything.

Take where?

Minuteman:

Does that mean you prefer the old 'cylindrical' type of 'flying saucer?' I can see the phallic symbol of the Potomac every night on the evening news...

giant triangles

If these are secret goverment aircraft, they're not being too secret about them. It doesn't make sense for the government to fly experimental/secret aircraft over major population centers, they do the exact opposite, targeting rural areas such as the deserts of the southwest or Canada for such missions. For some reason whoever is piloting these crafts wants to be seen, making sure to fly at low altitude at low speed over places where it will be undeniably noticed. This doesn't seem very secret to me. Taking that into note, the possibility of aliens acclimatizing us as a species to their presence comes to mind, but who knows? oh, and by the way, they also fly over rural areas at high altitude, at least the time I saw one with a group of friends in Maine.

If they are governmental...

If they are governmental...

1. They might not be experimental anymore.
2. The triangles could be performing the function for which they were designed.

I say lets just steal one and find out once and for all. Who's in?

i'm in if you mean what you said

however it's been reported that the BT industry has degraded and the models are assembled from two molded sections (*) and the electronics installation does not withstand any critics. * ? molded and welded ? ... ha! one can't assemle two parts with precision required to gain flawless operation - anyways what's your plan

Secret military aircraft ...

It's no coincidence that last year, Iran was experiencing numerous UFO sightings (several reports were linked to here on TDG), when just last month the CIA admitted to extensive spying on Iranian nuclear and military installations.

In Northern India, there have also been numerous UFO sightings, particularly triangular light patterns. India, Pakistan and China all share borders in the Himalayas, where the UFO sightings have been reported, and all three countries are nuclear powers.

I believe alien craft are visiting our planet, but many reports can be linked to secret military spycraft. The Iran example I descrived above is a classic example.

Of course, America could be covering for the aliens who are spying on Iran! ;-)

Rick

I agree

Hi Rick,
Yes I agree that it is secret military spycraft.They seem to have been around for some time as I remember a UFO club I belonged to in England 15 years ago followed the flying triangle reports.
They seem to form a large percentage of reports in Europe particularly.

shadows

While I believe that it is l

While I believe that it is likely our planet has been visited by aliens and will continue to be--I also believe that some of these sightings are military based. We are living in a very volatile time and the military most likely is experimenting with it's new aircraft. As to aliens I feel the earth cannot be the only planet with life.

10 years ago I could have bel

10 years ago I could have believed that a)government was able to keep secrets like this, b)there was a highly developed secret technology like this, and c)there was a reason for it.
Now however, there is no reason for keeping some technology like this secret. Military all over the world is busy trying to sell novel technology. If something like this had been developed, it would be visible by now. Apart from anything else, modern state security relies heavily on the deterent effect of advanced tech.
I do believe that we are not alone in the universe, and that there are more advanced lifeforms which must be aware of us. Likewise, if time travel is possible then it may involve spatial manipulation which we are momentarily aware of but which are otherwise 'invisible'.
Mind you, likeliest explanation are distorted images of airliners.

It's Richard Branson's lot again.....

Hi.

We've all heard of Virgin Records, Virgin Atlantic, Virgin Radio, and now, with licensing from Burt Rutan and the SpaceShipOne mob, even Virgin Galactic. It seems that nothing is safe from the dastardly business clutches of that money-making mogul.

The flying triangle phenomenon, I believe, is the manifestation of Richard Branson's latest venture - Virgin TimeTrip.

Yes, those pesky black triangles are nothing more than time travelling tourist ships, sent back in time (for the very reasonable sum of around £100,000 - probably) allowing people from the future to travel back in time...

"...when fossil fuels were still all the rage. See the old-fashioned cars and lorries moving slowly along the earth-bound highways and byways of yesteryear, long before most people had even heard of the SkyCar. Watch from your own personal porthole as the human population scurries about its mundane business of feeding the coffers of corporate greed. Feel free to flick the bird to some poor confused backwards red-necked hill-billy, before cruising off in comfort to sample first-hand the crazy warring nature of the human race of the time, as Virgin TimeTours flys you to some of the most hostile border areas on the planet. Then relax and enjoy the ride home back to your own temporal continuum where you will be able to purchase holophotos of your special trip..."

....or so the brochure goes anyway. It's all a very slickly run operation. And, since they have time machines at their disposal, you can elect to buy the photos of your trip before you've even been on it, and defer the trip to a later date. Imagine that!

Oh, the larks you can have with a time machine...

Will the aliens accept Virgin

Will the aliens accept Virgin Credit?

Some people say I look like Richard Branson, with my flowing locks and goatee. Maybe I should take advantage of this resemblance and go under-cover at Virgin Headquarters.

I bet there are no virgins there though ....

Mr. Harris

I've been thinking lately that Branson looks a lot like Zonker Harris.

Coincidence?

Is that a Freudian Ship?

I've had a special place in my heart for the triangle shape of UFO. Even used it in one of my logos (not seen yet--look to the airwaves!)

My questions to everyone are: Why does there have to be only one shape of ET craft? Is there only one 'race' living on this planet?

My God, maybe this is the vacation spot of the Universe?

Nah, just a nice living lab. Complete with Rat Race. Sweeet.

Make some Vs yourself ...

My first guess is that they are commercial arliners, which frequently line up at regular distances approaching busy airports. Works for ordinary military planes as well. I know, it's a real pedestrian explanation :)

Some observations could be due do diffraction and scattering effects, that could multiply light sources. This website (no, it's not mine) has instructions to make toy, homemade holograms. It seems quite possible that natural sources could produce interesting patterns. Heat patterns induced by large, regular stuctures (buildings, ploughing patterns, etc), who knows. Not that I have made the calculations, but someone should get a research grant and do it.

Having written this, I can come up with a scenario involving the military: they have figured out how to produce this multiple-image effect, and are testing it here. So they can use it in some invasion, and look like having air superiority with just 3 aircraft. Or they should be doing this.

history and mythology (due no connectivity)

summary from web-reports and elsewhere (type(size) – reported location) large(100-s of km) - NY,W-Antarctica, small(meters) - Belgium, Scotland, SW-Pacific, intermediate(100-s of meters) - US, UK - so here we have 3 different sized black triangular transport devices of which large is flat and type of micro-universe - small is derivate(simplified copy) of intermediate – the last two are used by different species … none of these are human-made however this depends on defining human.

alien origins

i always suspect there are other intelligent life forms living under our oceans, possibly visitors from another world who prefer us not to notice them - after all, we know next to nothing about what goes on 'down there'

Alien ships

I have always believed that the UFO sightings were at times government craft and other times ET craft. There are many ancient cultures that believed in aliens visiting us and I believe they still are. For an interesting account of the meaning of crop circles (Yes there have been many fakes but what if some are real) check out home.earthlink.net/~pleiadesx

and for those of you who like psychics check out the prophecies section on www.sylvia.org

for interesting info

All of the above, really ...

With "Secret Government Craft" leading the pack, it seems I am in the minority.

The idea that UFOs, especially of the "Flying Triangle" sort, are secret government aircraft, is an idea much floated about, and so could have been planted in the general psyche of the public as part of a government disinformation project.

Seem's it's working.

My personal belief is that MOST of the unidentified flying objects that are witnessed and photographed are, in fact, alien -- but not from OUT THERE. I believe that they are emerging from BELOW the Earth's crust, and have the movies to prove it. I document my findings in "Incident at North Berwick: The Skies Are Buzzing over Bonnie Scotland," published in Atlantis Rising #49 (soon to be replaced on the newsstands by #50).

If the UFOs do emerge from below, rather than from above, the pilots of the craft may indeed be more "terrestrial" than we are. While we have been walking about for many millenia on the SURFACE of the earth, they have been held in its bosom.

Food for thought.

Subterranean Anofiltrates

Thanks for the reference to your Mythomorph site ... very intriguing! I have bookmarked the page for future exploration. Thanks for the research you've put into Rosslyn chapel and the Orianic origins of the star splanged banner. I also followed the links to the devolution of mankind and the Fortean Times (where there is currently chatter about Electronic Voice Phenomena as well as info on the release of WWII Nazi documents in the US). Your reference to one of the more disturbing quotes from Goering is (horrifically) all too applicable in the times in which we have found ourselves. Same play, different cast, perhaps? :(

As for the theory of lightcraft rising from the underworld, there are a few others who postulate similar views. Steve Currey is organising a trip to the hidden hollow earth via the North Pole this year according to the BYU (an interesting tidbit on that page... did you know that "according to a survey done by LDS author R. Clayton Brough, 4 percent of the LDS population believes in the hollow earth theory and that it is a probable explanation for the location of the lost 10 tribes)." My God, that only leaves approximately 96% of Mormons who DON'T believe in the hollow earth theory!!! What if the Pope finds out about this??? There is also (d?)is-information at Subterranean Tunnels, Underground Alien Bases in relation to alien beings and lightcraft.

Who knows ... I guess it is quite possible that advanced beings (no need to refer to them as supernatural or alien) may have been habitating the earth for millenia - largely unseen by humans. Whether these beings (if they exist) are truly sinister (demons?) or perhaps simply lonely and misunderstood creatures banished from the sun's rays (cuddly little gremlins) ... who's to say?

Thanks ...

Hi ankh.

Thanks for the kind words about my website, and also for the link to the "Subterranean Tunnels" site. I had found it a while back, and then lost it. Did you click on my link to the "Disclosure Project" at http://www.disclosureproject.com ?

The site offers a freely downloadable movie that shows an absolutely rivetting two-hours of UFO testimony taped on May 9, 2001 at a National Press Club press conference.

Compelling and convincing.

Best!

Jeff

John B's Triangles

Didnt the recent findings state that John the Babtist predicted these recent signs of light. I dont know if that connection has been made but the Dead Sea scrolls maybe slating the same sightings. Hmm?

We are from another galaxy

Ever notice how almost in every nothern hemisphere ancient advanced civilizations regard whom we call ORION as a significant constalation? Maybe due to the fact that the center star in orion's belt is actually a nebula called Crab??? Due to the evidence I hypothesize that the advanced ancient civilizations that we know today actually decended from whom we would have called GOD and whom ever he traveled with, who came from that distant galaxy, and populated this world. The constellations in the sky just happen to be a cosmological clock used by the settelers. Since NONE of that record exists today i would even suggest that this "GOD" kept the advanced knowledge from his children as to prevenet them from doing whatever it was that he had done. thus ignorance is bliss.

triangle craft

hi everyone, nice to be back after sooo long. these triangle craft are earth built but back engineered from alien tech.
I believe a man named fouche had a web site once with all the info and pictures. unfortunatly the big bigbrother closed him down.

Craft Triangles.

It's a craft;I'd seen, when going upon visits during last Semester.
what was particularly sagacious, didn't alter until I'd arrived with it trailing as if intersted in what we discuss.
However.
There's no way you can guess whether an 'incidence of triangles' means 'existental' to a Greek who'd; after deciding-it seemed, to camp on the side of the highway, got the jerks as the Triangle hovered, before disappearing.
That's why, unless your camera's shutter speed surpasses what many in Greece regard as an 'obsolete tech' some Craft are just going to escape without been noticed.
That's good, becase why, should you holiday in the european winter, when such events are taking place?
I'd considered how Kraft might be arrayed,so that if the angles right, and twilights waning, both objectives would be achieved.
Too see why such really explains this, surprised the Greek who I'd holiday'ed with, before having to return so that my papers were updated.
Alot's written about this in Birmingham; I hear, which reminds one of those circular crops.

These things are very common

These things are very common just south of Bangor, Maine, in Dedham. It's a very wooded area with few people. They move aprox 35mph (never seen them move faster), and have red and white blinking lights on the tips, and have a smooth underside. No sounds are made and they are very low to the ground (60-120ft in the air, under radar, just above tree line sometimes). They are fairly big, being about 60-80ft long. interesting note, they stop and hover in place to turn by spinning on their axis. There is an air force base in bangor. I've seen them personally on several occasions along with many others I know.

that chafe the spirit and the mind repress,
