The Pyramid UFO Phenomenon

I suspect most of those who found their way to ATS's Aliens and UFOs forum are aware of and have seen footage of the pyramid shaped UFO that appeared over Moscow in December 2009.

Some of you may have seen similar footage from the UK (late 2009, possibly December) China, January 2010, and perhaps also from Colombia, March 2010.

ATS threads have covered most of these incidents, but I think we should take a look at them all from a global perspective.
Pyramid (diamond) shaped UFOs may or may not be a new phenomenon, but there has definitely been a peak in reports with photographic documentation during 2009-2010.

So, some questions need to be asked. Is it the same (type of) object appearing globally? Is there a pattern to its (their) appearance?

If some or several of these objects would turn out to be balloons, lanterns or kites, where is the international manufacturer of these sizeable objects? I tried to track them down on the internet and found nothing that even remotely corresponds.

So what are we looking at here people, a new type of craft that recently made its appearance, kind of like the triangles entering the scene en masse in the 1990's?

Is there more documentation of pyramid (diamond) shaped UFO incidents? If so, post it up!

And please, if it is your opinion that these are Galactic Federation Star cruisers from Zeta Reticuli, please explain it to us in a logical, coherent way how you arrived at that conclusion.

Equally, suppress the neanderthal debunker within you and spare us posts like "Uh, it's just Chinese lanterns" unless you can logically explain why you believe so, based on sound physics and tangible, verifiable facts to back it up.

S & F! Nice thread.

The Pyramid over Moscow was one of the most strangest things to have occured this century, yet it only made the front page of the paper and headlines of the news for a day or so...
It's as if they've gone, "Oh wow look a massive Pyramid in the sky! Thats odd. OH MY GOD NO! Tiger Woods slept with 7 women! Let's make that top notch news for the next month or so."

Maybe there was little coverage of the Moscow pyramid (actually a tetrahedron I think) because there was no other footage or witness accounts. The original witnesses never came forward either. Just one piece of footage (likely CGI). Highly suspicious for such a big event if it actually happened.

Most of the other 'pyramid' UFO's have been debunked as CGI and the UK one was a solar balloon released by Southampton university. I don't see how we can analyse this UFO trend from a global perspective if non of them were actually the real deal.

Yes, I know what you're talking about.

I went to CNNs web site as I stepped out of bed this morning and found zero mention of the catastrophic oil spill in the Mexican Gulf on the front page- which is ongoing and far from resolved - not even in the environment section.

But the imbecile that planted a car bomb at Times Square is getting unlimited media exposure, what he had for breakfast, the color of his socks, no stones unturned.

Is it humanity, or is it just me?

You know, it's not because one or several self-appointed debunkers claim to have debunked something that it becomes true.

I've looked through these threads myself and do see points of views worthy of consideration, but nothing has been debunked so far.

If a massive pyramid floats in the air above a big city more than one person would have recorded it! You can't be oblivious to that. Therefore when just a single video shows up showing a pyramid floating over an area where other people are living, its a damn hoax. Don't be suckered in so easily.

As above so below ring any bells?nice thread S&F,is defiantly something to this be it man made or E.T.


regards to all

Maybe the great Pyramids around the world were space craft at one time? They are enigmas after all.

Nice collection of vids. I sussed the UK one for a baloon. The others look like CGI, but who knows? The original Russian vid looks the most genuine.

Fake or not, I like cool vids

While what you say sound reasonable in terms of demographics, human psychology tells me that's it's not necessarily so.

People simply don't look up in the sky, unless for a reason.

In Mexico City in 1991, during the solar eclipse, people did have a reason to look up, and they had their video cam's ready.

We have a total of 17 different videos of the UFO that showed itself during the eclipse, 17 from a city where approximately 21 million people live.

Moscow has about 10 million inhabitants, and we have 2 videos. But remember, they had no reason to look up, it was night time and freezing cold since it was December. There were no people in the streets, they were at home keeping warm.

You claim all of these videos are a hoax. An international conspiracy of pyramid UFO hoaxers?

I am never one to be harshly skeptic but riddle me this:

Why are there no aircraft nearing the objects? Sure the Russia one you can say people were inside getting warm and such but there are many DAYTIME videos!!

Surely a helicopter of some kind would have gone up to it to figure out what it was...
--

Personally I think them as CGI. The originals being the Russian videos and the rest continuation or copycats. The history show thingy is just confirmation bias, probably showing images and balloons and such.

Gives a whole new meaning to a band called Stone Temple Pilots

But seriously....my 2 cents on the thread.
Uk Video looks like a balloon to me but the others are very intriguing,

they dont look like cgi to me and that smaller piece circulating around the "Pyramid" looks fascinating just like a drone or small escort craft,no way they are balloons or kites, and the size of those things rule out rc craft too imo.

These might very well be the "real" thing! i have to look more into this

Great Thread! S&F From me !

Cheers

There are many daytime videos? Sweet! I thought there was only one confirmed. Could you link us to the others?

Mm... it's still freezing cold during the day, and people still don't look up. Why would they? I live in one of Europe's largest cities and I never look up in the sky, unless something flies right over and craps at me.

I guess you do have a point. Not many people want to take the time and look up anymore. It is actually the first thing I do when I go outside. xD

Who knows what is real or not with these pyramids?? Either way it is quite scary!!

People don't look up at the sky? Honestly... is that it?

If a Pyramid of the magnitude depicted in some of those videos (through CGI) actually appeared, people would notice! It wouldn't require everyone to individually decide to look up, it would just take 1 or 2, then everyone would be glaring. Try go to a big city walk way where everyone is going about their business. You and a friend should 'infiltrate' and while walking pretend you're observing something in the sky, you would be amazed at the results.

Point in case. These are damn hoaxes and can be deduced as such very easily.

As a self appointed debunker and a paid dis-info agent, I am here to tell you that these things are not real. The only thing tripe like this does is reveal the ignorance and lack of basic critical thinking from many members in this community.

And many of you wonder why this subject is a joke, lol.

That is your point of view and you have the right to believe so.

Indoctrinated people will generally present their point of views as undisputed fact, whereas scientifically minded people will generally try different theories and work themselves towards a most likely theory, which can at any moment be revised.

Do I remember Einstein stating as fact that nothing in the Universe can travel faster than light?

Oops, proven wrong by String Theory, back to the drawing board.

Read my opening post and apply yourselves accordingly,

A solid reasoning with facts please,

CGI (and we're talking all the videos)? Prove it. Balloons? Prove it.

But forgetting about what "someone else" says - just looking at the footage and it looks very fake to me.

It has all the CGI telltale signs:

1) the image in question is always moving far smoother than the rest of the recorded scene; almost as though it were generated in a PC 3d program at a much higher FPS than the scene it is embedded into

2) there are never multiple accounts of the same footage from other people. I will not believe a building sized pyramid hovering above a populated city has but one sighting!

3) the footage just "ends" - what happens to teh pyramid? Does it vanish? Zip away? Pop into nothingness? The film always ends before the "CGI creator" has to come up with a "realistic" way in which the UFO leaves.

I'm not a paid agent of disinformation (tho I'm happy to be!) or debunker but those pyramid films are simply bunk. Pure and utter.

It's also about common sense. I mean really - a giant pyramid sized UFO during daylight, above a major city, and *no one* but the videographer (read: hoaxer) sees it?

Thanks for posting noonebutme

I appreciate a skeptical attitude without arrogance attached to it.

I have to skip off to work now, so in order to do your post justice I will reflect on it later.

A question regarding your comments though, are you referring to ALL the videos or one in particular?

As far as the Moscow UFO, there are several witnesses I believe, but only two videos.

Footage often ends abruptly because cameras and cell phones have limited memory. It's not an explanation, just something to consider.

Look, I'm sorry you have limited experience using common graphics programs in order to see the obvious cgi here, and I'm sorry you don't see the obvious balloons in these videos. Nothing I can do about that. Trying to tell folks like you that these videos are bunk is like trying to tell someone from 1000 years ago that the Earth isn't flat. If you don't fully understand the reference, reflect on it for some time before responding.

Now, the thing I thought would save folks like you from their ignorance of video editing would be common sense, reason and logic. But I see it get tossed away too easily in the desire to believe in the least probable conclusion. No video knowledge? No problem! There are so many things that will discredit tripe like this before you even get into analyzing the video itself. Why can't people see that? Lemme see....huge UFO over a VERY populated area......and you guys take leaps of ignorance in order to ignore the basics that would go along with that fact. Forget the videos, you don't even need to get into the videos to debunk them.

Seriously, if you think your "exposing the truth" or whatever...the only thing your doing is enforcing the very ignorance that is responsible over the years for keeping this subject the butt of every newscaster's joke.

I could go out and make a 30 second video of a clump of dirt thrown in the air, spend 5 minutes editing it and throw it online. People like you would challenge others to discredit this "amazing evidence" and you know what..they couldn't. The chances of someone using the same equipment, the same settings and the same technique to make their video as I did in mine is zero. So their recreation would not bee 100% spot on, and folks like you would point out those differences and claim it means that the original video must be real since nobody can "re-create" it. Gimme a break.

The ignorance being displayed here and in many threads on this board is the very problem that plaques the subject you all profess to love so much.
