    Love the accurate reporting.

    [quote][b]object in the video looks very much like a surface-to-air missile[/quote][/b]

    and then they proceed to show a rack of air-to-air missiles [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    Missile my arse, no one's that bad a shot.

    Doesnt look like ani air to air missle Ive ever seen, the fins are oddly shapped

    How the **** can they tell that thing is round from what that image shows!?

    And what good does it do to have a find edges function run on the image when most of the edges found are JPEG artifacts!

    BS...I wish these UFO people would use BELIEVABLE evidence. That one is just BS. I'm for UFOs, but not for stupidity!

    Looks to me like the edge detection and "Advanced object definition" things are just the photoshop edge and emboss filters. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

    My guess is that Albany, NY got a very rare glimpse of the Golden Gate or Bay Bridge in California being bounced off an upper atmospheric inversion. The motion was probably due to the inversion dynamics changing the glancing angle.

  • Umm...if it is above the clouds..and there is no smoke trail...how would you think it's a short range air to air missle? The thing is much to large to be something like that...I have no idea what it is, but something like a high speed drone would seem more likely.
  • THERE COMING..... RUNS TO BUNKER IN WOODS!!!! AHHHHH

    Oh yeah GREEN
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    It's quite obviously swamp gas.

    after it was shrunk in the wash?

    People into UFO and related phenomena call things like this "rods", and some believe they're creatures living in Earth's atmosphere.

    I'd be more willing to believe that it's a missile of some sort - but if so, where did it come down?
