The Cleveland UFO: What on Earth?

www.theweek.com

For more than a week, a mysterious pulsating light has been appearing nightly over Lake Erie east of downtown Cleveland — showing up at approximately 7:30 pm and zipping around in the darkness for about two hours before disappearing — reports MSNBC. Captured on film from various angles, it's now drawing nightly crowds at the lakefront. While Nick Pope, former chief UFO investigator at the British defense ministry, calls it a "significant sighting," some of the UFO's fans do not exactly inspire faith: "I have absolutely no expertise in this field, but I can guarantee you that it is not

Check this out! This is incredible. Apologies if this has been posted, I have not seen a post about it.

The NASA, military and other agencies say they aren't responsible. The strange UFO appeared every night and is pulsating different colors. It doesn't look like anything I can think of, I think this is really some huge piece of data for all UFO researchers.
Anybody here from Cleveland have witnessed it?

interesting stuff S&F
however, in about 10 mins, experts will come along and explain it as a star, most likely sirius, forgetting that witnesses clain it 'zips around the sky'

It is not the first time I read reports of UFO over lakes and bodies of water. I wonder what they use it for?

Very interesting story!
S+F

I reckon the military/nasa do know about this,otherwise I would expect them to be monitoring the situation with fighter jets,if its not "one of theirs."

Someone get down there tonight with a decent zoom lens!!
Please!

8 nights in a row , and that's the best shots taken ?

8 nights in a row , and no one can set up a tri-pod?

This is a lousy light and lousy sighting.

Interesting.. I wonder what it is. There are threads on this already why not just add to those instead of making another thread on the same thing?`

That is very interesting.... This will be a hard one for skeptics to argue but you know they will probably still come up with some stupid excuse to explain it.

Hi oracle, good to see you; this thread here is also about Cleveland, just doesn't say anything about it in the title:

but it does stir the pot a little...

I live in Cleveland but have not witnessed the recent sightings. They are, however, reminiscent of dozens of other sightings recorded over Lake Erie over the past 2 decades - one of which I did see! The pictures and video are admittedly terrible and not likely to convince anyone of anything. They are consistent with what I have witnessed and what dozens of others have witnessed. My opinion is that there is a base or some type of safe area below the surface in the deep portion of the Eastern Basin of the lake.

I was looking for a good map of Lake Erie to link to but have been so far unable to find one. I can tell you, however, that Lake Erie is the shallowest of the great lakes averaging only 62 feet deep, but has a maximum depth of 210 feet in the Eastern Basin. If you look at a map (if you can find one - I have a print out) the Eastern Basin Hole would be EXACTLY consistent with the location of these sightings. Because the lake is so shallow, visibility is often very poor due to the constant current stirring up silt from the lake bottom and would likely provide excellent cover for any "Visitors".

This satellite image of Lake Erie is an excellent depiction of the currents and tides of the lake. You will notice the Eastern Basin Hole on the right hand side.

As I had mentioned before, these sightings have occurred over the past 2 decades. The descriptions, location etc... are consistent and have stood the test of time. I'm hopeful that more is revealed and better video materializes.

This is a lousy light and lousy sighting.

I agree, the footage is extremely disapointing considering this is happening regularly and many are aware of it.

The time of the sightings seems suspicious to me, 7 to 7.30 pm every night. (that was in te report wasn't it?) I think this indicates two possibilities. Either the lights are the result of something mundane that gets turned on /is activated/ is flying etc. every night at this time....or who ever/ what ever is responsible for these lights wants them to be seen and is giving observers every opportunity to be prepared and record them. We really would need better footage to determine whether these lights are anything extraordinary.

Surely someone on ATS is in the vicinity and could investigate?
