Visitors in Texas

If they'd landed here in Austin, no one would have even noticed... ;)

... those aliens look just like deer ... with radioactive eyes!

* ****** **** ****** *
saucers spinning overhead
draw me from a troubled bed

tossing turning aching dreaming
listen to the aliens screaming

see them fly above the town
get your rifle shoot them down
* ****** **** ****** *​

this is one of those that nobody can debunk, so things get really quiet.

Not necessarily, I'm sad to say Danny. :( I have too say that I'd love to be able to confirm the object in the pic as a real bonafide unknown aircraft but for me it's still unproven and will remain so until MUFON or another investigative org. can confirm it.

As one of the comments posted on the site says, "There are many small communities around Archer City and this is the lights of one of them. At night when the atmosphere cools, temperature inversion occurs and causes light refraction. Talk to your weather people."

I've seen examples of light reflection ever since I can remember and I know that they can indeed fool you into thinking they're something else... :o :rolleyes: :(

I've gotten many odd pics on my trail cameras, but I've never considered them to possibly be alien beings. Maybe ghosts, but not aliens. We don't have aliens in rural Indiana at night. Most of them are in Indianapolis.
 
Did see on UFO Casebook site.

Unsure, IMO. Night vision has picked up bona fide UFO things before, but that one ... I dunno.

But it isn't just one photo; see the slideshow. Something's there.

Somebody answer me this: Why are we still using chemical rockets? Why, when we developed nuclear rocket engines that are many times more efficient/powerful than anything we use now, more than 30 years ago, are we still using 100 year old technology to get into space?

We have had the ability to send the shuttle into space and back, without boosters, and without refueling, for several decades...
 
I'm still not sure that I know of a way to translate the electricity generated by nuclear fission into propulsive thrust. "Impulse drive" and its ilk are still theoretical, as far as I know.
 
We never developed nuclear power in a form that could lift a reasonable mass into orbit. We do use ion drives in some far space explorers.

I don't buy light refraction on this one. A perfect row of lights with no partials?

Danny in one documentary that I saw photos of some flying insects taken at night produced the same perfect row of lights time and time again because of the regulated timing of the beat of their wing's and light being reflected off of them... In this case I'm thinking that perhaps you're wanting this so badly be true that you're letting your scientifically ordered thinking take a back seat to what you want...You're usually not so adamant without certified proof...;)

I'd like to see someone propose a steam/nuclear booster like R.A. Heinlein did in "Destination Moon" just to see how many treehuggers and people at the EPA stroke out when they read the proposal:D The Cassini mission launch and the original uproar over it was bad enough:rolleyes:
I personally believe that according to numbers there has to be other life out there. But it will take proof like a scorched redneck and his 30-30, a corpse or one parking over a populated area in daylight to convince me that they are here now.

Oh yes we did. We have both fission (and maybe fusion) rocket engines that are ORDERS of magnitude more powerful than modern liquid fuel engines.
See the Pheobus 2b (4400mw) - fission motor - built by Westinghouse in the 60's.
These days, NASA is only beginning to suggest that maybe we ought to take another look at these ideas. (42 years of wasted time)

B. But how can an insect fly past the same point and create the same perfect row of lights for almost two hours straight?
 
IMHO -- It is a reflection from one of the reflectors on the poles in front of the camera.
