Mysterious Universe

The Triangle UFO is interesting, but I think if its real, that it is a formation, not a single ship. The reason for this is that you can see stars pass through the shape, and the shape does not block the light. Therefore it is either three separate lights, or the ship has a cloaking device.

I think that the “bar” above the alien is its reflection from a mirror on the door.

Great show. Always down-to-earth presentation, challenging and amazing production values. I am thoroughly enjoying the show. You touched upon an interesting topic: as technology takes over more and more of our lives, will we wind up as we are pictured in so many Scifi stories with frail small bodies and enormous heads to carry our super developed brains? Could this have happened to our alien visitors which would explain their physical appearance? Fun things to speculate on.

I'm curious as to why weather balloons would be lit. Does anyone know of any weather balloons that contain lights and are launched in this kind of formation? Most of the pics I've seen of a group of weather balloons show them launched as a cluster.

Man I gave up trying to lie down, and listen to this. The triangle ships certainly are interesting. I also find the grey video interesting. I am almost sure that it is some sort of puppet. If you look above it, there is like a towel rack? that moves with it.

I dunno about that alien. I find it interesting that the video clip offered has it standing there when it begins. Though whatever it is appears to move a little during the clip, I think I would like to see more of the video to see when it “arrives”.

You raise a good point. Weather balloons are used to measure all sorts of things. I am not sure if a lit fuel would effect the instruments on the balloon, but that being said, if you wanted a balloon to be up in the upper atmosphere for a long time then using lit fuel would be the way to do it.

The formation is less of a red flag for me. Obviously light weight objects move around in the atmosphere. They may have just moved into a triangular formation by pure fluke. It really isn't that unlikely, seeing as there is 3 “balloons”, and what shape do they make if they are in formation? A triangle.

That being said, I am not 100% sure if weather balloons use lit fuel, but it isn't far fetched. I would be interested to see if I, or someone else, can find out if balloons use lit fuel.

Weather balloons fly in perfect geometric unison…?

chinese lantern. just thought it was worth mentioning. we've had chinese lanterns and they DID stay in formation – to an amazing degree. i was very surprised as we were letting them of a few minutes apart – they went up very quickly and them seemed to settle into an area of the sky and then drifted gently together. they only lasted about 5 mins max tho. then they flicker and go out

Hi to all….in reference to the alien home invasion, I've started to post clips from one of the original videos at http://naturalplane.blogspot.com/2009/10/videop…
There are also links to our wiki and discussion board…where the witness, David, is answering questions.

Actually there could be a way for them to weather balloons to be lit like that. Remember the Earth is round so the higher altitude your at the later the sun sets. So depending on what local time it is and how high they are the balloons might still be reflecting sunlight. Then the fading out could just be them crossing into nighttime (which makes sense since they fade out one at a time).

Another possibility is that they could be satellites flying in “close” formation. As an example my school launched a pair of satellites into orbit to study close formation flight. Although you wouldn't be able to see them since they were micro-satellites its possible that these three are part of some other experiment or flight formation.

Or they could be UFO's

Modern man IS a wimp! What do kids these days do for entertainment? Play video games and eat potato chips. What did they used to do even just a very few decades ago? Go outside, play baseball… Pretty much prevented themselves from atrophying…. While obvious, the data on running speeds was pretty fascinating! I would kind of like to pit a Spartan soldier against a modern man to prove this point. That would be a pretty great visual.

Good reply. This is also possible. It did run through my head that they could be lit by the sun. Only I am not sure how high up they are, and there is pretty much no way to tell!

I challenge any of these so-called historic man-masterpieces to a Halo deathmatch.

I dunno…. Can you imagine the damage you would suffer when they became enraged and smashed your console over your head? I'd rather link up with them over something much less menacing like a DS!

Damn straight. Let's see them beat me in Fight Night Round 4…

Interesting. I guess the Alien hypothesis is falling apart .

What I find odd about that video is that if you look above the “alien” you see a dark vertical smudge. If you watch that smudge carefully it moves at the exact same speed and distance that the “alien” moves. Now the smudge is moving at the same rate as the door so the the same can be said about the alien. The head of the object also appears to be right at the height of a door handle. My guess would be that this is just a some cloths on the door handle combined with tricks or shadow and light to give it a really freaky outline.

Regardless of what it may or may not be, I am creeped out. I can stomach the thought of aliens, ETs, spirits, what have you just out and about but there is something so creepy and violating when they are allegedly in the home. Just last night I woke up in the middle of the night and was making my way into the bathroom and couldn't turn on any lights because I didn't want to wake up my fiance or the dogs and I kept thinking, “PLEASE don't let me see any grays PLEEAASSEEE!!” It was eerie. And the face in that particular link… ugh. Even if it turns out to be a manip it still creeps me out. I'll admit I scare easily but this is just fuels my things-that-go-bump-in-the-night jitters!

Well…

Here is a lit weather balloon at night. I'm no weather balloon expert, but the size, shape, and light look pretty similar to the triangle formation video. Though in this one, it behaves a lot more like a balloon would and in the triangle video they move in a much more linear path. Maybe they were… tied together or something and that explains the perfect formation. (Why would you tie them together? I have no idea.) Buuuut… I don't know. Like I said, I know about as much about weather balloons as I do about astrophysics. Which is sadly not a lot.

In the show you guys mention that there is a black bar above the aliens head in the video above, suggesting that it's a puppet. That is actually a distortion of the video… If you look closely the entire top of the video is flipped and stretched, which is a little strange but these things happen often with low quality videos. Great show by the way!

Yeah I see what you mean. Now that I've listened to the podcast and watched the video a few more times, I'm even less sure of what I've seen. I'd still like to see more footage before I officially stamp it as debunked or what have you for myself, but it is a little bit strange that the smudge moves at the same time as this figure does.

That would actually be quite amusing, I would love to see that. I can't help thinking about that and wondering if the things that make modern men weak in comparison would make them stronger or if, as others have suggested, you'd just get bashed over the head for the waste of time.

I don't believe anything anymore. All the pictures are shady, all the videos are suspect. The only thing I can believe is what I see and until then I'll just enjoy the stories and MU.

Ha ha, I know that feeling, in the first series of MU I dreaded getting up in the night thinking please don't let there be something messing around in my house.
