GEOS-8 Chile's Weather Satellite snaps a UFO......., page 1

Ok, found this while scouting around looking for UFO stuff i haven't seen, which is hard these days.
But came across this little gem, not sure if its been done already on ATS, and this incident actually goes back to 1992.

Now this picture is taken using infra red, and the parallel lines around the UFO, is electromagnetic interference.

"The lines that can be seen in front of the UFO belong to electromagnetic interference that came from the UFO," Sanchez explained.

And it was HUGE.

"According to Mario Vilches, the gigantic saucer measured "400 kilometers (240 miles) in diameter."

I cant link this pic, so please go to the main link at bottom to see picture.


Now apparently this picture "disappeared very quickly" from GOES website.
Goes website link.
www.goes.noaa.gov...

Why didn't this make big news?

Here's how it was handled.

"In its evening news broadcast on January 26, 1999, Chilean broadcaster Channel 13 aired a story involving a infrared photo taken by the GOES-8 weather satellite (part of the orbiting NOA series). The image, taken July 17 1992, shows clearly a huge disc shaped object in outer space high above the Pacific Ocean in front of the Chilean coast. This image was captured by "Servicio Aero Fotometrico (SAF) de Santiago" and handed to the local authorities (Air Force). Copies of the images were also given to a few people like Mr. Gustavo Rodriguez, former ATC and UFOlogist who now works for CEFAA (Official UFO Commitee). "

Funny how the Brazilians, Mexicans, Chileans authorities have much less of a problem discussing this in the open, or take the UFO topic a lot more seriously.

For me this is quite compelling, i wonder just how much NASA do air brush out things??

If pictures were removed from the goes.noaa.gov website then I'm guessing it didn't. Can anyone confirm if the picture on the ufoevidence link () is a genuine GOES-8 Weather Satellite image, that hasn't been tampered with? If it is, then what could that object possibly be?

Spot anything odd there?


However, more damning is the fact that GOES 8 was not launched until April 1994.


(see also here

So, once we have one fact clearly wrong, we start to doubt the rest of the story...

there are two different sets of images showing the same type of shadow/structure/image, I think.

One from SAF in 1992 and a second from GEOS-8 in 1999.

Yep. It's the Moon. There are more examples here:

Thanks, very interesting, when you try to wrap your brain around a 400km flying object its hard to do. My question is, how can such a large object up there avoid all the 1000 satellites and space junk orbiting the earth.

"Did you know there are over eight thousand artificial objects orbiting Earth? Over 2,500 are satellites, operative and inoperative. The remaining objects are orbital debris. "

NASA J-Track

Yes before you shoot me, i know the earth's circumference is about 40.000km, still, this objects circumfence is 1256km which is about 1/30 of the earths. Say 30 or more of these arrive, a total sunblock is then possible.

-------

One more, the article mentions both 1992, 1996 and 1999, someone said GOES-8 wasnt launched in 1992 but in 1994, so according to NASA data the below is false.

"According to Chilean ufologist Luis Sanchez Perry, the program "showed an infrared photo taken by GOES-8 on July 17, 1992, clearly showing a large disc-shaped object ".

But more recent images, taken in 1996 according to article, is correct then.

"The second GOES-8 video was shot on April 7, 1996. Although the image disappeared very quickly from the GOES website, it was downloaded by Chile's Centro Meteorologico Regional de Antofagasta. "
