723666 2008-11-27 11:18:00 Hi everyone, most of us have heard about UFO’s and all the stuff about the reports on them. There have been research on them and many things said and done, but it is still not clear if they really do exist or not. What do you people say on this? Timothy (14365)

depends on what you call a UFO.

I have seen something in the sky i can't explane.
it was flying and i don't know what is was, i say that makes it a UFO (unexplaned flying object)
but I also say it was not little green men.


UFO and little green men are two diffrent questions....

strange flying things? yes

little green men? maybe some place out there, its a big galaxy....

little green that come to earth? I dont think so....

little green man who come to steal our cows? no!!, BTW what are you drinking??

723669 2008-11-27 19:28:00 You might be interested in Quentin Fogarty's book, "Let's Hope They're Friendly!" where he tells the story of the world's first verified film encounter with an unidentified flying object.

The object was first seen by Quentin Fogarty, a Melbourne television journalist and a film crew traveling in an Argosy freight aircraft off the Kaikoura Coast on 31st December 1978. They filmed the bright objects which were also tracked by radar.

After months of research, American scientists agreed that the light source captured on the film could no be explained by conventional means.

The cover of the book has a frame of the film shot that night. It is of a trail of light describing what they called a "lazy eight" - an almost figure eight. Whatever the light was, it moved in that lazy eight pattern in a fraction of a second. The lazy eight was on only one frame. Film moves through a camera at 24 frames per second! The object would have travelled 2500 feet and had to be moving at 57,000 feet per second!

Zipperty: While I partly agree with you, this book will change your mind.

It is a very interesting and intriguing book but what or who these people encountered has never been explained. And it happened in NZ.

Stories of UFOs used to be the fad at one time. You don't hear too much about them these days. Perhaps it is no longer fashionable.

Yes I have that book and I have my theories as to what it could of been, which I won't go into here . I'm also a bit of an amateur astronomer and probibly have been out in the night sky more than most and haven't seen any UFO's .

It's interesting that every culture in the world has stories about the "little people." Perhaps there is a grain of truth?

Nope - his book did nothing for me :(

Didn't someone come up with the answer that the crew had seen light reflections from some squid boats many many miles away?

Something to do with atmospherics etc .

It is a bit like ghosts and God . No one can prove anything . . . . . . . yet

There's also stories all over the world of:

sea monsters
lake and river monsters
ghosts
dragons
evil spirits that eat naughty children
free lunches
pxies that do work for you at night if you leave them an offering
giants
and a whole lot more ...

Perhaps there's a grain of truth to them all.

Or maybe. Just maybe, people are gullible and see the supernatural/cosmic in everything because they are, well, human.

But if that kind of common sense means little then how about this.

If the little green men really did travel across the void of space to check out this little insignificant planet, you'd think they stop for a cup of tea and chat, wouldn't you?

Oh no, I forgot, it is the aliens way to arrive here, stick probes up our orifices, mutilate a few cows and zip around trying to carefully appear in their ships where no one with a really steady hand and decent camera is around ....
