Our War Of The Worlds. The best UFO picture ever!

I do love this one: reply to post by Nohup
...you had me for a few seconds nohup

I could never get why the BOLA got a backseat in ufology. This was staring everyone in the face. It was same period as Roswell, so then do we believe what others tells us more than we do our own eyes?

I have never seen a documentary on this yet proof on BOLA makes other cases look weak. Maybe i love it so much due to the reason for not being so "commercialized" Let the truth be told.

I must applaud WFA again.

What a wonderful thread! Thank you so much for taking the time and investigating this very interesting early case. The best thing it has going for it is that it happened way before the UFO craze started. I am still digesting all the information, but it is worth it.

Great thread. He says 1,400 shells and this ship still was fine. Surely this was a real UFO?

Thank you kidflash2008. I'm not sure that we've met formally, and I just wanted to say it's an honor to have you here participating in the thread. I've read several of your posts in other threads of late, and I'm excited to see you applying your mind to this, one of the greatest mysteries of our time.

I'd go one further, and say that we can now (from the evidence presented in this thread) conclusively state that nothing made by Humans in 1942 (or dare I say today) could have performed in the manner observed by this craft. Mass Halucination is just a silly concept when we've got the US Army issuing radar returns on the craft, etc. The same goes for the smoke/fog theory (since I've now demonstrated that the Searchlights did indeed penetrate smoke and fog, and the lights do not penetrate the object in the photo).

I'd go one further to say that while still Unidentified (making it a UFO) it's certainly been confirmed not to have been anything made by Humans (in 1942).

Apply Occam's Razor here (Yes, that's right Skeptics, the simplest solution to this question).

In my view, the simplest solution (given that we know that the environment for life exists in the habitable zones of other stars) is that another civilization from another planet orbiting another star whose technology far surpasses our own buzzed over the city of Los Angeles, CA on February 24th, 1942.

That's my theory at least.

I must admit that Nohup (my favorite Skeptical sparring partner) has another theory that fits the observed evidence of the event. His theory is that the object could have been a time ship from a future Earth. While his theory is not directly disputed by the observed evidence, I personally find the Extraterrestrial Ship Theory more probable than the Time Ship Theory, simply because we know that the environment for other civilizations exists. We do not know if it is truly possible to travel backwards in time.

So yes, not only was this a 'real UFO', IMHO the best Theory going that fits the observable evidence is that it was an Alien Spaceship from another world.

Thanks for joining in the thread!

You are very welcome Plusthon, I want to let you know that I fully intend to get back to our earlier conversation about the math involved in the event. I just want to finish my pictoral report on the Re-Enactment first. Thanks for being patient

By the by, I saw that you posted some images of newspapers from the re-enactment, did you make it there? I didn't get to meet you I don't think, if you were in attendance... At any rate, great to have you participating here. I'm excited to get back to that Math, and I'm glad I'm not the only one! LOL

I am open minded about the ET hypothesis, and I can be skeptical of many of the claims in most of the threads. However, there are some cases that not only have some good witnesses, but have really good photographs and other evidence to back them up. This case is one of the best ones out there, as it does have one of the better photographs printed, and in a major newspaper on top of that!

It is good to ask the questions, and try to get the answers. And in your case, the research and hard work is paying off. Unlike Roswell, the government has not given many different answers and has basically ignored this case, hoping the public will too.

You have continued to provide outstanding information in this thread.

So much so that I felt it necesary to use this thread as an example in the Top ten conspiracy theories of all time thread.

The images of the searchlights taken at the re-enactment are superb and shed so much more light (no pun intended but you can giggle if you like) on the subject and its importance.

Well done and congrats on an incredible effort in the building of this thread.
