Swamp Gas And Weather Balloons June 30, 2011

A group of UFO’s was spotted over London last Friday. They are definitely UFO’s…since they are clearly flying objects and they are as yet unidentified. The inclination of our more skeptical readers and, I suspect, my blogmate, will be to write off this incident as a hoax, a natural phenomenon, or a manmade terrestrial event. The hoax explanation is tough to swallow since the objects were filmed by at least two separate individuals in different parts of London, and the objects appear to be identical. A natural phenomenon isn’t out of the question, but if these are giant high-speed fireflies who are visible in bright blue skies, I’ll be interested in seeing the first specimens in Scientific American. More feasible would be some sort of advanced terrestrial craft. If the Brits have some kind of disc-shaped craft that can move this fast and shift directions in turns that must be on the order of 10-20 G’s, then they ought to be doing more to help win the war in Afghanistan. On the other hand, if in the more believable case that these are alien spacecraft, I have my usual question: What’s the point of teasing us with these brief spectacular airshows? Why not land on the south lawn of the White House and have a decent man-to-monster talk? “Klaatu barada nikto” and all that.
