Unidentified Delta Wing Aircraft Photographed Near Area 51

I encountered this "craft" while camping in my RV, in the desert near Area 51.
I couldn't spot a tail number, so not sure what it is.
Didn't spot it until it flew past my nose, in my RV. I didn't scream like a girl, but hey - it was close.

emmm you mean that moth....?

Man, that's possibly some state-of-the-art simulacrum of a moth and powered by nanotech. Good catch!

a reply to: FosterVS

It's beautiful!

Looks fake to me.

a reply to: FosterVS

DO NOT let it bite ya! They install RFID chips when they bite...

Kill it with fire!

a reply to: FosterVS

Well, a quick Google image search reveals...galvanised steel mesh!!! I sh** you not, no moth or anything resembling a living creature!!!

Go Google!

Argghhh.. Hate it when that happens.. See a juicy headline and click only to find a... Bloody moth..

Anyway good one old chap..

Reminds me of my wallet.

That is a nano drone.

I'm thinking the DARPA Test Moth 3. When run through all of the many advanced processing filters of MS Paint and magnified, and with certain pixels changed to black (just for contrast, of course), you can clearly read the secret project name.





Seriously, good for you not burning down your RV. It's not that moths are scary, but getting surprise buzzed by that puppy could have easily caused a more jumpy person to re-route the propane into the RV, drop a lit zippo and run onto Area 51 restricted space yelling "shooooot meeeeee!!!!!"

Where's Zaphod at,this needs to be i.d.'ed ASAP.

I think it may be a camera lens artifact

wouldnt it be funny if it WAS some sort of biological eavesdropping device from another world!

Or its a moth.

LOL

Good one.

It is beautiful.
Moths get bad press. Everybody loves those brightly coloured butterflies but they seem to hate moths.

Weird.

Those patterns and that shape really are fantastic. Cool picture. Nothing quite so spectacular as Mother Nature.
Nice.

Ok .......you got me.

You couldn't wait Just ONE day? Just ONE.

Saw a Green Beetle this morning at work, it was gorgeous too.

Isn't it though? You couldn't paint a jet fighter to match anything close to that beautiful camo job.

I missed that!!! You can't beat those MS Paint filters.

Seriously though - even its' head is part of the delta.

Its swamp gas. Debunked, moving on now.
