Do you believe in UFO's?

Could this be true below?

That looks fake. It looks like something that can be done very easily with paintshop pro.

Especially the last ones.... those gave it away.

 

[Yamialpha]

Could it be possible? Of course. We don't know. Are those pictures fakes? Personally I believe so. I'd have to go with Light in the black in saying that those UFOs look pretty useful for simple arithmetic.

 

[psychoceramic]

looks like a plane....

Of course I believe in UFOs. UFO stands for Unidentified Flying Object so anytime something is seen in the sky which can't be identified, it's a UFO. That doesn't mean it's a flaying saucer or something...just that it's not clear what it is.

Took the words right out of my mouth. One of my friends got really obsessed over UFO's a while back, so I started pointing out every flying object I couldn't readily identify (and there's a lot) as a UFO.

The best part about alien UFOs is the great government conspiracy to cover them up! I figure if one really believed the stories, they'd get themself a job with the government, not throw so much time and energy into sensational propaganda.

Appears to clear up the question.

I'm sorry but that picture is definitely a fake. The only flying that object has done is around the internet.

Exactly. A member of the local astronomy club recently emailed a report of a U.F.O. and gave an accurate description of what he saw.

Walking out of BJ's @ Centrum at 9:00pm tonight, I happen to glance
southeast towards Jupiter when I see too small, moderately bright (say
Mag 0) yellow-white lights about 3-5 moon diameters below it and one
moon diameter apart. In an instant I see what at first I think is a
firework explosion: a fuzzy ring of yellow-white light around the
rightmost light, which expands to about 2 moon diameters in about 5
seconds, then fades out. The two lights move along a line northward,
more or less parallel to the horizon, through the eastern sky. The
rightmost (trailing) light is "fuzzier" that than the front (leftmost)
one. Over the span of about 90 seconds they move about 25-30 degrees to
the northeast, before they seem to fade out behind the clouds. During
this time the leading light increased its distance from the trailing one
to about 5 moon diameters. The trailing light grew less fuzzy over the
period of time that I followed it.

The velocity of the objects was consistent with either high-altitude
airplanes or satellites. The speed, color, and brighness was not
consistent with any meteor I've ever seen.

Very strange.

Later he found out that it was a military Titan IV rocket launching into polar orbit.

Interesting report, Stellar.

I never really thought about rocket launchings before when hearing the term U.F.O., mainly because I have yet to see a launch in person. Of course it does make sense as a possible explanation when seeing something in the sky you can't identify. Not for every case though, it just depends on the contitions.

Right-I wonder there have been any studies of places where there have been multiple sightings and if they could be in range of rocket launches. My personal opinion is that many of the sightings are of DoD projects. I've read that before the government had declassified the B-2 and F-117 and were testing them, people were reporting them as UFOs. There are also stories of people being condemned by the government for their reports, so that also makes me suspicious.

Personally, I think those pictures are either flukes or fakes. However, I do believe that there is a chance that we have been visited by actual spacecraft before, or at the very least, there are other inhabited planets out there. It only makes sense if you think about this quote from the movie Contact:
"Are there people on other planets?"
"I don't know. But if there aren't, then that's an aweful waste of space."

Than again, who is to say that life is so important that it is considered a "waste" for life not to inhabit space? Sometimes I believe we tend to put a higher value on our existence than what is the truth.

Nope, and never will

Why is that?

 

[ik_spreek_nederlands]

I myself DO NOT believe in UFOs.
There are either people lying, or either people seeing aircrafts.
There has to be an explanation to it.
I will believe in a UFO when I see one, but until then...

What makes you believe that people aren't actually seeing UFOs? There have been multitudes of people-many educated and considered trustworthy-that have seen them. What makes you believe all of them are mistaken or lying?

 

[Seekeraftertruth]

I am presently a guest of the V. A. for medical treatment, and I see UFO's (Unidentified Food Objects) every day!

Seriously, the picture reminds me of the ones floating around the Internet after 9/11 purporting to show, from someone's webcam at the top of the tower, the second airliner coming toward the tower.....completely fake.

On the other hand, there are instances of "UFO sightings" that are extremely difficult to call "fake," and there have been a few that actually left some sort of physical evidence......so as to the general issue of UFO's, I'm not sure we can just disregard the possibility they exist. [Roswell comes to mind, and a detailed examination of all material related to that incident leaves one with the distinct impression the government did, in fact, engage in a massive coverup.]
