If this is true, and I know the one in England was, then the first thing i would think is a larger meteorite incoming dragging lots of smaller ones with it before u.f.o's and only if I was panicking. or just a series of meteors, a mini meteor shower.
why would streaking fireballs be considered u.f.o's over meteors? what other reports or features suggest u.f.o's?
well one of the vids i saw had all these twinkly lights flying slowly in a sideways v-formation...
that's unusual...

The high orbit illustration looks as if we have tried to almost shield the earth with junk. Maybe to visibly conceal the fact that their is water here. As far as an invasion I'd have to agree with some of the other posters..a civilization capable of interstellar travel will almost certainly have the ability to quickly kill us all without us even knowing whats happening. Contaminate water supplies..introduce nasty viruses ect..it won't be a war if or when it happens..just a lot of death.

Rofl yeah,the moon nazis are coming >< watch out.. and 2 though in all seriousness. nah its a metor shower probly. and also probly has to to do with us being in a time of the solar maximum, its in its peak from 2012-13
could mess up satelites power grids etc. who knows

Wow! Cool story! Did you stop and go investigate the meteor? I would have take it as evidence and then sold it! and where are these meteors landing now. Anyone know? ....
No i didn't even dare go near that thing, no telling what kind of radiation that thing could be putting off, it could have uranium in it for all i knew and i'm not foolish enough to go poking around something when i don't know whats in it but i was worried about it setting that cornfield on fire.

"Meteors and comets are vitally important to our study o f unexplained
aerial phenomena. They reveal patterns which indicate that they follow
precise routes year after year and even operate on a predictable timetable.
This certainly suggests an intelligent plan of some sort.
Another "meteor" was followed by earth tremors when it zipped in
over the Gulf of Mexico early on the morning of Wednesday, March 27,
1968.Mr. Ernesto Dominguez, head of the Mexican Department of Meteorology
of Veracruz, conducted a careful investigation and collected all
of the reports.
"This probably was not a meteorite, " he stated in his official summary.
: "We cannot say for sure just what it was. We do know that it did
not fall to earth or collide with the earth.
"Its trajectory was curved. Imagine a jet or a spaceship suddenly
going out of control and plunging down directly toward earth. Then-as
if control was regained suddenly-the object or objects suddenly veered
away from the earth, only moments before collision point, and went out
over the Gulf of Mexico. But I think it did not fall into the sea. It could
have gone upward.
"A meteorite would hardly do such a thing . "
These peculiar "meteors" and green fireballs have been turning up in
increasing numbers for the past fifteen years. They usually look like the
astronomer's concept of meteors and comets, with a long tail dangling
behind, but their maneuvers and the many physical effects accompanying
their passage rule out a simple natural explanation. They are far more
numerous than the intriguing flying saucer-type reports of metallic circular
objects. In fact, the reports of mysterious lights and unlikely meteors
form the major body of our neglected "soft" sightings. Furthermore, they
pop up year after year in the same isolated, thinly populated areas. Natural
meteors could hardly be so selective. And meteors don't change direction
or angle of descent."
The late Morris K. Jessup, a professional astrophysicist, was especially
interested in the fireball-comet-meteor reports and studied them
extensively. In his book, The UFO Annual (1956), he described many of
the meteor repons of 1955 and had this to say:
We are having an influx of fireballs, and these have had an unusual
amount of attention because of their number, brilliance, and the
Kelly-green color of some of them. There does, indeed, seem to be
something queer about them . . . For the record, it might be stated that the
green fireball flurry did not originate in the United States, but appa,rently
in Sweden [ 1 946] . This was a few years ago and essentially before the
greatest intensity of interest in UFO or saucers . They were then thought
to be Russian rockets or missiles; and to this day we cannot prove that
they were not Russian. In the United States the green fireballs made their
debut in New Mexico and were thought to be associated with atomic
energy experiments. Now, however, they have spread over much of
North America."
edit on 24-9-2012 by Runciter33 because: (no reason given)
At approximately 8: 1 5 P.M. on Monday, April 25 , 1966, a brilliantly
illuminated object flashed across the Canadian border and sailed majestically
southward over the northeastern United States. It was seen by
millions of people along the Atlantic seaboard. Astronomers and amateur
photographers took excellent color pictures of it, some of which were later
published in Life, Newsweek, and newspapers all across the country. It
was so bright that it lit up the countryside like daylight as it arced
gracefully overhead.
It was quickly explained as a meteor. The explanation made sense to
those who saw it, and so the whole incident was forgotten.
However, I spent many months collecting reports of this object and
assembling the whole story. Thousands of actual unidentified flying
objects are erroneously explained away as meteors every year. Usually
no one bothers to collect these meteor reports, lay them out on a map, and
study them properly. Astronomers seem least interested of all.

Oh yeah, that blanket of junk is just the ticket to hide us from whomever. Does it not occur to you that if the junk blanketed the planet enough to hide us, that we wouldnt be able to see out either. But I can look up and still see the stars.

Nuts, bolts, Wrenches, old solar panel parts and debris, Old Satellites, Old Satellite debris, rocket booster debris etc etc etc.
That's just the man made junk...
plus hamburger wrappers and used paper cups.
