Doe's anyone think these ufo siting's may have something top do with the earthquake yesterday? It all seem's rather too coincedental.

If you do the trig, then the difference in angle of observation from that distance between the object at 2000 ft and at sea level is 0.57 degrees.

The fact that two independent observers saw it suggests that something was actually there.

That may very well be the case, however, I've put my life in that hands of pilots before, and I doubtless will again, I would certainly hope they, above anybody else, would be qualified to judge altitude.

There is certainly precident for a ship to be in two places at once. There is a well documented event that took place in 1943 at Philadelphia.

I cannot find any record of the Liberty being out of port on the Monday. Josie's mum boarded her on Tuesday and they were sailing around the Channel Isles looking at Guernsey on Wednesday. So I'm out by two days. The Liberty's sister ship, whick looks very similar, the Navigator arrived on the 26th and on the cruise ship tracker site was still south of Ireland on the 24th at midnight. So it wasn't her on that date...

However, as the description matches the lifeboat arrangement perfectly I wonder if the reported date was wrong. The news report was dated the 25th. If the sighting was 3pm on the 24th then perhaps it was the Navigator?

I struggle to see a mile wide craft at only 2000 feet on a clear day in the middle of the afternoon would not be spotted by litterally hundreds of people. This is one of the busiest shipping areas of the world.

Anyone know what happened after he landed? Like did he report it straight away or what? I wish they would have sent a plane up there to check it out again.

And any more info on the MoD stance on it?

I know there isn't much info about this coming out, but we shouldn't let this thread fade away and be forgotten, because as of now we haven't even come close to explaining it!

I agree with implosion.

It's a fake in my opinion

Thats a good point, its odd how that happens.

Yeah it sucks because if people aren't going through reading every post they will just assume that because the photo was a hoax that must mean the whole event was a hoax

Might be worth retitling the thread to reflect what has been revealed inside.

"Channel Islands UFO's 4/25 - Photo a Hoax, Story Still Valid.." Something along those lines....

That might very well be true. It makes you wonder about the motivation of the person who created the picture, doesn't it?

No matter, sure, there are many people looking to fake and hoax, but there are a hell of a lot of genuine reports out there, very often from people who end up wishing they had never said anything at all. People point and laugh.

Perhaps humans are conditioned to only believe in that which comforts them. Belief in a benevolent God, and an everlasting paradise in the afterlife, for instance, is subscribed to by millions of people. I wonder how many of these folks have had direct experience to bolster their beliefs. Maybe it is more comforting to them to believe in such a thing, than it would be to believe in alien critters tear-assing about the place in gigantic mother-ships.

It shouldn't be taken as a matter of faith, we're not talking about a religion here, genuine UFO reports are out there. IMO this is such a report.

I think it's laughable that people can look up at the stars and come to the conclusion that we are alone in the Universe. Having said that, why bother yourself with another persons beliefs? We are all unique beings, with unique perceptions. I just hope one day, we will know for certain, one way or another, or I will die wondering.

Did they come from Blackpool or Fleetwood on the west coast of England.

Residence complained in Fleetwood. I just wonder if any were ever
seen in Blackpool.

Big Belgian Triangle types have been sighted there at times in Fleetwood.

I don't know where Guernsey is.

Don't think you heard about those.

Newfoundland, Bell Island had a blast from a backfire and I was just
looking on a map wondering if they go up north to a base.

Back to Google Earth.

Sorry lol I really couldn't make any sense out of that last post

Anyway, it seems this is being forgotten...

i think like most similar things this will fade into the past and nothing new will come forward
