Are you illiterate? The sighting HAS ITS OWN OFFICIAL WEBSITE, FROM THE PILOT WHO TOOK THE PHOTOS. THE PILOT SAID IT WAS THE MIDDLE OF THE PACIFIC OCEAN. Here's the link to his OFFICIAL WEBSITE ABOUT THIS SIGHTING.
There was supposed to be nothing but endless ocean below for hundreds of miles around us.
They initially appeared as a distant city or group of typical Asian squid fishing boats, but this did not make sense in this area.
The lights we saw were much larger in size than your average city or group of boats, but they also glowed red and orange, instead of the normal yellow and white that cities or ships would produce. The closer we got, the more intense the glow became, illuminating the clouds and sky below us in a scary orange glow that you would expect with a massive fire on the ground. In a part of the world where there was supposed to be nothing but water.
together with the very creepy unexplainable deep red/orange glow from the ocean’s surface we felt everything but comfortable.
In 2015, Discovery Channel featured this sighting and photos in their show 'Nasa's Unexplained Files', hinting towards a possibly military source of the lights.
Fishing fleet Could explain the overall size of the group of lights and the stability of them. Does not explain the red color and the size of the individual lights. Also, the position so far out in the Pacific does not make sense.

I guess I am illiterate as I cant find the Pilot mentioning 'in the middle of the Pacific Ocean' anywhere on that site where its describing the event.
So please show me I am illiterate so I can do something about it or stop making up stuff.

Boats don't travel 100's of miles into the "middle" of the Pacific Ocean, just to catch fish, that's just ridiculous lol. Boats are slow. They would take all day just to get out there to fish during the night.

This sighting caught a lot of attention for a couple of months when it first happened and to my knowledge hasn't been adequately explained.
I dont believe the photos show fishing vessels either but you are incorrect in a few of your assumptions.
Many commercial fishing vessels go to sea for months at a time and often travel literally thousands of miles to reach productive fishing grounds.
Asian fishing vessels regularly travel to the edge of the economic exclusion zone in the Pacific Northwest, European and American vessels fish the Grand Banks of Newfoundland etc.
Larger modern vessels are capable of 20+ knots in heavy seas, that is covering some 550 statute miles in a day.

What an obnoxious and stupid response lol.
oldcrappy and InhaleExhale, you guys can consider your response to be found in my post above, a giant list of information and QUOTES FROM THE PILOT/PHOTOGRAPHER'S WEBSITE ABOUT THE SIGHTING.
Therein you will find your "middle of the ocean," and you'll find your conviction of it being a fishing fleet destroyed by the pilot/photographer himself.

You will also find his coordinates and a map showing his exact location. I suggest that before you accuse me and others of being illiterate you put on your glasses and have a look at these and then perhaps you would kindly stop making stuff up.
Try reading it, you might understand that the sighting happened in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, with nothing around, FOR HUNDREDS OF MILES:

Thanks for showing you either lie or are just so ignorant of things you read because no where does the pilot say on that website that he was in the middle of pacific ocean like you said he did.
He says "While flying over the vast Pacific Ocean, somewhere southeast of the Russian Kamchatka Peninsula"
Is this what took to mean in the middle and that is how you expresses it?
I can see how you would with the pilot saying this as well,
"There was supposed to be nothing but endless ocean below for hundreds of miles around us."
You said the Pilot said it but I cannot find him saying it in the link you supplied.
I may have missed it but glanced over it twice and couldn't see the pilot saying what you said he did.
Changing what was said and using expressions that can be interpreted wrong doesn't help research.
You want to get to the bottom of things you need to use precise language and not Chinese whispers and misquotes or made up quotes.

You need to look at a map.
Hawaii is close to the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The sighting was not.
Is such phrasing not common in your part of the globe?

Why not be accurate?
My part of the globe is near the middle of the Pacific Ocean, btw.

We speak English in Hawaii. Believe it or not.
Why do you keep saying it happened in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It didn't. Why not drop the colloquialisms and stick to the facts?
I'm not Hawaiian.
Obviously I know that Hawaiians speak English, although I didn't know you live in Hawaii.
It's nonsense to keep repeating it when the fact is that the sighting was no where near the middle of anything. It is, in fact, a distortion of the facts for effect. Something that some UFO "researchers" are prone to do.
Because if you guys are fluent and familiar, then it sounds like nonsense to criticize anyone saying that they're "in the middle of" anything lol.
