In fairness, I can create a equilateral triangle and, by turning it in front of my eye, create multiple optical variations. Nothing more than perspective, as I am sure you are aware.

However, for these objects to be a solid object, I would imagine that there would be a visible glint of the material between the lights during SOME point while this thing was twisting through the air. And I wouldn't imagine a craft that could hover would be subject to whipping through the wind.

Like I said, you need to watch the episode. I had to post what was available as this is a relativly new sighting and even the mainstream doesn't really know about it yet.

This was featured on the season premier of UFO Hunters and if after watching that you still feel the same then please let us know.

It will be rebroadcast on 11-02 at 11:00 PM eastern on the History Channel.

not having a digg but honestly, is this the best you/they can come up with? Not worth watching really is it. I need convincing beyond resonable doubt. Sorry but 3 lights in a dark sky is not gonna do that for me they could be anything.

im sure your smart enough to determine that its not a single plane, or three planes when you watch this video. or a helicopter, or a blimp or flares attached to balloons.. but im sorry you said it could be ANYTHING.. thats not going to hold much discussion weight if you ask me.

so your saying it could be anything? really...

no. its ONE thing.. unclassified and most likely non earthly.

facts:
1500 foot surface area
located in the most popular air space in america, whose residence young and old are familiar with air traffic in their own home town.
multiple witnesses
travels slow, stops in some cases and moves slow again.
the filmers are obviously worked up by the sighting, just watch the episode if you get a chance.
FAA denies that anything is in the air.
multiple video clips from canada to chicago to australia...

i know YOUR only interested if you get to see a nice shiny metal object, but the fact of the matter is that its usually in the case of lights in the sky which display arial phenomena that human body cannot withstand, or stability a weighted object cannot produce. i suggest you re-evaluate what the simply boring twinkling fuzzy lights in the sky mean to you, cause they are obviously important to thousands of people. just dont want you to miss the BIG picture is all.

Apparently not so new:

The official sightings first got attention on October 31, 2004. On this Halloween night, more than one dozen residents of Tinley Park, and nearby Orland Park, reported seeing a strange series of lights in the sky. Those who looked at the lights at first concluded that they were very bright stars. The people who donned binoculars observed that they weren't stars; but flying objects. The objects moved in a strange, triangular pattern.

In October, 2005, the lights were again observed over Tinley Park. More residents called the newspaper and the National UFO Reporting Center.

we all know that media does present the event as occuring but they dont make an effort to put it in the publics eye..

pulling up a an external source just to prove that his statement is half false..come on phage.. did that actually humor you?


i do however agree with you that the sighting is not NEW new..such as the stephenville lights which has had recent activity all the way up until last night. but i can see how 2004/2005 is still new content. im sure you can relate.

I wasn't trying to "prove" anything. Just pointing out that it is not a "new" sighting.

Oh, and by the way, Halloween is here again. Apparently there is something particularly attractive at this time of year.

let me explain what the meaning of "relative" is:

Relative - Noun: a thing having a relation to or connection with or necessary dependence on another thing.

The video had to be analyzed and a complete investigation undertaken, which included interviewing all the witnesses and then gathering experts to analyze the footage, and finally putting it all together, so debunker's will have almost nothing to point to other than vague inferences to perceived errors by third parties not actually associated with the original investigation.

Thank you for the definition.
Again you have corrected my ignorance. I thought relative was my uncle.

halloween..ok i can see where the mysterious time of year comes into play..

im actually thinking pumpkins (jackolanterns) floating in the night sky.

personally i dont think halloween has anything to do with it since it didnt occur on halloween only.

1500 feet of surface area is speculation, not fact. I don't see compelling evidence that points to it being a solid object.

during the episode it was concluded that the lights seemed to change the shape of the triangle. from different perspective this was concluded as one "shape" which was sort of tumbling end over end in the sky. keeping the shape of a perfect triangle. my question to you is..would it be easier to conlude that the object was one mass, or do we have three individual objects tumbling end over end in a perfect formation..and if the latter...would you agree that this can ONLY be done by intelligent life.

I haven't seen the program yet but I have a hunch these witnesses were not some of those interviewed:

Tinley Park resident Wally Bekta laughed when he was asked about what he saw in 2005 and voiced the eerie sounds, "do do do do do do." Then he realized he might get on TV. "They were flares on balloons," said Bekta, 48, who was hosting some friends at a firepit in his back yard in the 8200 block of Queen Victoria Lane. "I spotted them. They just came across the house next to us over the peak of the roof, no more than 50 feet over the peak of the house. They were climbing and rising. We got a very good look at them." Does he believe in UFOs? "No." His friend, David Palagi, is even more detailed in his description. And he doesn't believe the lights were life from another planet. "It was extremely clear," said Palagi, who also was at Bekta's home. "There was no doubt in my mind they were red helium balloons and flares suspended by a string of rope. They were just over (Bekta's) next-door neighbor's house, just climbing up over the distance." Palagi, 54, said he had seen the red lights a few months before that evening, but they were much higher in the sky, at least as high as an airplane.
