Am I seeing things? UFO's perhaps?
 

Peter got home tonight from a concert and began to tell me of a strange blue light hesaw in the sky. He was driving through Richmond and saw a blue flame falling to earth. It lit up the whole sky, he said, and appeared to be quite close. Pieces seemed to be breaking away like when the most recent shuttle fell apart en route to earth. Peter says he would think it was something from a plane, but it was blue.

So what does this mean? What burns blue? And what would enter our atmosphere and still be large enough to burn like that as it falls to earth?

Any ideas? Bueller? Bueller?

my cats breath smells like cat food

weird, for some reason, nowadays people seem to be talking a lot about UFO's.

strange

That's the best you folks can come up with? I'm not exactly the type to believe in UFO's in Greater Vancouver, you know. I would welcome any logical explanation.

Give Art Bell a call. He'll tell ta what it was!

Pth on you, sir.

I have the answers you seek. In exchange for one night of 'special attention', I will reveal The Truth.

I dont' believe in UFO's......but...years ago in my old neighborhood we would have all gather at a neighbors to light off fireworks. Obviously we were all looking up at the sky.....and all of a sudden someone noticed this "thing" in the sky. I have no idea what it was...moved quickly...but not in a straight line and it didn't move like a helicopter would either. It was disk shaped but was way in the hell up there, way to far to see any details. If about 50 other people didn't see it I thought I would have imagined it.

And who gets to define "special?" :1orglaugh

Considering that you were about to set off fireworks, it is entirely possible that someone else had already begun to do just that from a distance. (Not someone with you, but a neighbor perhaps?)

Any attention from you is bound to be "special"....

You beautiful goddess, you...




Damn, Why do I have to be so smooth all the time?

*sigh* If it weren't 4am, I'd have a snappy comeback by now. As it is, my brain is running on fumes. I really need to clean my bird cage...

Probably just a nuke. Dont sweat it.

Yeah, that's cool then.

I'm off to bed. I will resurrect this thread in the morning and find out what the day shift thinks.

Don't worry, it's not you. My charm has been known to mysteriously drain women of any and all resistence. If your feeling a slight numbness throughout your body, don't worry, it is a common side efect that usually wears off in 2-4 hours.

You may continue to fall in love with me now. :winkwink:

:eek7

The one on the bottom will be a spitting image of Michael Jackson in 2 years

I think that we're not the only one in the universe, but I don't believe in these UFO storys...

I don't think we are the only ones either...but I don't think anyone is visiting us...but then again...what the hell do i know

Thank you! I searched all over, but I guess it was too early to have been published yet. Yeah, I was thinking space junk, too.

it could have been a number of things more then likely an aircraft on fire, you think of how hot that jet fuel burns and when fire reaches a certian temperature it burns white and sometimes blue right so it could be that

Meteor flashes across Northwest sky
Thursday, June 3, 2004 Posted: 1:08 PM EDT (1708 GMT)




SEATTLE, Washington (AP) -- A meteor about the size of a computer monitor flashed across the Northwest sky early Thursday, setting off booms that stunned witnesses.

"There was some question as to whether it was a piece of space junk burning up, but it was not," said Geoff Chester, a spokesman for the Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C. "As far as I've been able to figure out, it was simply a rock falling out of the sky, as they are wont to do on occasion."

Chester said it was a type of meteor called a bolide, one that appears like a fireball in the sky, and was about the size of a small piece of luggage or a computer monitor.

Nothing unusual was detected on National Weather Service radar, and authorities also ruled out aircraft problems or military flight tests.

Toby Smith, a University of Washington astronomy lecturer who specializes in meteorites, said the skybursts were reported over a wide area around 2:40 a.m.

Witnesses along a 60-mile swath of the Puget Sound region from the Tacoma area to Whidbey Island and as far as 260 miles to the east said the sky lit up brilliantly, and many reported booms as if from one or more explosions.

"It made a pretty big bang," said Petty Officer Andrew Davis at Whidbey Island Naval Air Station, 40 miles north of Seattle.

meterorite?

doh.. i should scroll down and read the last message before i post, haha.

Grab some punctuation, man. One comma is not enough to get by on.

Waaaaahh -- I didn't see/hear it and we are situated on Puget Sound and The Strait of Juan de Fuca! :(

There here....

:1orglaugh :thumbsup

I wish the fucking Aliens would just come already...I'm bored :mad:

So you saw one and you STILL don't believe in them :)

If you look into the reports over the years deep enough with an open mind you will be convinced. Too many credible witnesses to discount by any other explanation :glugglug

it would put a whole new prospective on things if Aliens arrived and they looked like that... I think I would hide under my covers :helpme

It was at 2:40am last night and bright blue. He said it lit up the whole sky! He didn't hear the noises reported in the article, though. He said it looked as if someone had shot a blue flare towards the earth, instead of into the sky. And pieces were breaking away on fire with blue flames, too. I'm so cheesed that I missed it!

it could have been a big ball of frozen shit falling out of an airliner

or as some people call it, "Death By Blue Ice"

Frozen shit kills more and more people each year

K, I just heard Associated Press is discounting the "story", since the guy who called it in SAID he was an astronomer but isn't at all. So now they are saying it never happened.

Oh brother..did you see E.T.?
