Digital Dossier: 'Phoenix Lights' UFO Sighting

i was just reading an article in a blog about Steven Greer and his claims of being able to vector in Alien craft and that he can teach other people how to do this. i have been skeptical about these claims as i am sure most people would be but when i read that he claims to be responsible for the Phoenix lights event occurring i have to say enough is enough. how could Greer expect anyone to believe... more

Good Day Forumerions, Not only does 'Dr. James R. Bartzen' claim to know the origin of the Phoenix Lights UFOs, he encompasses "all UFOs!" "An astrophysicist claims to know the true source of a strange grouping of lights that appeared in the Arizona night sky 11 years ago. Dr. James R. Bartzen said he has indisputable proof that the so-called "Phoenix Lights" were a product of secret man-made... more

Greetings, It has been nearly 12 years since the incident known as the "Phoenix Lights" was shown around the world, nearly 12 years that something has been burning inside of me. When the official explanations of the incident were released (mainly the story about Maryland ANG A-10 "Flares" story), myself and everyone else that had anything to do with the incident itself were deflated, as we knew it was false. In short, on the... more

Hey all, here's a cool one for your consideration. The lights appear to be part of some kind of form/structure. They do not drift as would flares and appear to move in unison. The video is short but clearly shows what this man filmed. So here we go what do have here? more

The camera work is a bit shaky but some brilliant stills are obtained and you do get to see these objects holding steady in formation and even changing positions. At several points, it even looks like star formations. Apart from the shakes, this is a pretty good daylight sighting of multiple UFO's. [edit on 8 Jun 09 by Gools] more

im sorry but i am not good with constellations. it is North east of either the big dipper or Little dipper. i think little. I do not have a camera with good enough range to capture this because it is extremely high in the air. more than a normal aircraft. there are 5 lights. each one seems to blink on and off in sequence and sometimes at the same time. here is a picture i drew to best describe it. if you are... more
