Interesting stuff there Henut, it does sound odd to say the least and infact these are commonly reported.
These objects don't sound like anything normal either.
What do you thiink that it could be?

With subjects like UFOs, I prefer to 'err on the side of caution', as the subject is a contentious one. I'm sure, with all those billions of stars out there, we can't be alone in the universe. If we were the only 'intelligent' life, it wouldn't bode well, would it Question

I don't think it likely that the Yeti or Loch Ness Monster exist. The 'Balance of Probabilty' [and common sense] also rules out Santa and the Tooth Fairy. Yet I would not voice all this to my son outright. When he's older I'll let him down gently. A bit like a balloon from a fairground. I don't want to burst his 'little bubble' too soon Wink

No I agree with that.
Children should remain inocent untill they begin asking there own questions. Then they should make up there own minds based on there best judgement.

I stay open those mainstream legends, just maybe, why not? These dreamy stories could well be real.

You're right, Agentscott. I feel that children are made to grow up too quickly these days. (And as for our so-called 'education system', please don't get me started on that!)

Magazines, advertising, TV....they are all to blame. We are bombarbed constantly with 'must haves' and 'must buys', and the 'latest' this and that.... . How did we manage for thousands of years without all these mod-cons? I don't see many pyramids being built these days, do you? Wink

Growing up in the pre-internet, pre-digital, pre-a-lot-of-gizmos era, I feel almost 'prehistoric'! Mind you, some of those early home PCs do now seem like something 'out of the Ark'. But the world didn't end, did it?? Wink

I heard that in one school, they taught... what would you do if a UFO crashed in your garden, the lesson was likley an RE on morals but that seems like a very weird thing to teach kids?
Wonder if there is another reason?

I think that the world may be going a little to realiant on 'gizmos' and I think that they are selling to the max, say a computer hard drive, we know they can bring us 3 terrabyte now but they sell us a 2 gig first then work or way up to the big stuff, over a very short time. Could they well be maximising the sales?

We are consumers so they know it. Mainstream mags and t.v is effecting the way we veiw the world and people in it for sure...girls who think they have to be as skinny as a rake, or men who think they have to be tough or even having to here the latest gossip on gagas new dress, all blamable on the glossy imige that is being painted.

HENUT-TEPY, could the object you saw have been a balloon or a chinese lantern?

Interesting school you went to, Agentscott! I wish they'd taught us that in RE. The lesson I most recall was the one about the 'three Arks'. This puzzled us because we could only name two. Noah's and the Covenant. The teacher said that Moses' basket in the bulrushes was called that too. We were told that 'Ark' can refer to any vessel or receptacle. Well, you live and learn Wink

I won't even pretend to know anything about 'megas' and 'gigas' and 'tetras'. As I'm not very technically-minded.

Indeed girls are sold a load of c**p is magazines. And as for TV Exclamation

Hair, boys, clothes, makeup, so-called 'celebs'.... . I tended to ignore it, as a teenager, and still do. My niece is all 'girly', and I can see that my sister and her husband I going to have a lot of trouble when she's a teenager... . My husband and I [gosh, I sound like the Queen!] are trying to instill some common sense into our son from an early age.

It wasn't my school Henut, I left in 95.
A freind of mine told me a year or so ago that that was what her daughter was doing in one of the days lessons.

I was thinking about the possibility of a disclosure by the powers and that being used to pave the way....get the kids more ready to accept ET's.
That is if they are even planing one.

Cylidrical white light sighting?
If it were a plane it would have been traveling at about 10,000M and thats on the border of the stratosphere so if this was much lower I would say it's quite unusual for a large passenger airliner or any other for that matter to be at that height, also you can check your local flight paths and even when planes will use them so if you had done that the you could find out for sure.

You may well have spotted a cigar type UFO but on the other hand if it didn't perform then it's hard to tell. Daytime sighting a more rare too.

I left school in the 90s too. My real name's Sarah, btw. Now we are on first name terms Wink

I remember the first time I saw the film ET. My friends and I cried buckets when we thought he'd died.

My son keeps wondering about that 'UFO'. My husband told me not to be daft. (He was out at the, btw, so didn't see it. Typical, eh Question

) Why is it, whenever footage of UFOs is shown, that most of it is out of focus? And why is so much of it at night? Although even daytime images are blurred as well. I would've thought advances in 'terrestrial' technology would've sorted that out Wink

Sarah, yeah ET is a classic - I love that film lol haven't seen it in ages though. The wee lad that played the main character is in another good UFO movie based on 'true events' apparently - Fire in The Sky - you can watch it on youtube:
