What about strobe lights proves that the craft is man made? Sure, it could be an indication, but it's not proof. Maybe, if it's an alien craft, then maybe they don't want to cause unnecessary trouble by having one of our aircraft crash into their ship/probe/whatever. I'm not saying it's definitely an alien craft, but I'm just trying to make a point that the lights don't prove the thing is terrestrial.

I actually saw this thing in Tinley Park. No joke, I saw it. Here is my story:

Me and a bunch of my friends had just played baseball in the late after noon. It was hot out and we kicked the other teams butt. We came back to my friend Johnnys in Tinley, from Orland Park the next town over and BBQed drank some beers etc. We were having a good time partying it up. It was a very clear sky that night but the night was really pretty dark. NNormally near chicago you can only see a couple stars but out in Tinley away from the city you can see everything. Round 12:00pm, could be later; but it generally seemed around that time. Facing east, towards lake Michigan, at about a 80 degree angle (almost directly above but not quite) we see three red lights. Crazy, we all start joking around, take a few pictures, one guy takes really shakey video. We even woke up my friends dad to confirm our sighting. The red light was really bright, in the same way that a vcr light is in a completely dark room. Just like the History chanel said, it was a triangular shaped arrangement of lights. The UFO lingered for about 30 minutes or so moving in direction only slightly. But it did seem to move up and down in terms of altitude. At some points it seemed as far away as a star appears in the sky. This was probably because of our perspective being almost right under it. At other times it seemed to come really close; with in 15,000 feet in my estimation. But as I said it was definetly moving up and down. I was immediatly convinced this was nothing that i had ever seen before as were my 10 or so friends. The lights did seem to blink once in a while but not with any sort of reasoning and that could just be a result of the atmosphere. When the thing actually left; it appeared to us that the craft went straight up out of the stratosphere. And it happened really quickly. I know the history channel said it went south but the way we saw it the UFO went straight up out of the stratosphere. Again, all we saw was the lights as I said it was really dark that night. This is about everything that I can remember it was a few years back after all. Also about 2 or 3 weeks later there was an article in the Chicago Sun Times about it. So, yeah there it is.

I missed your post above mine entirely course I can take your word for it as well out of the norm.. maybe alien maybe military. I want to see the whole program. There has always been talk of a large craft above earth, maybe that is it
