Something Strange in the Sky Near Las Vegas… a UFO?

[youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQvVAkw7Idw&autoplay=0 375 290] You might not believe in UFOs or the possibility that there’s intelligent life from elsewhere in the Universe visiting earth. You might think I’m nuts since I am convinced that this is the case. Regardless of your sentiments, what do you make of this?

I shot the original footage just after Christmas near Jean, Nevada just about 20 miles outside of Las Vegas. The object was exceedingly bright – at least an order of magnitude brighter than anything else in the sky that night and it was absolutely not any regularly occurring astronomical phenomenon.

The footage you’re seeing above is actually taken from the original material. What I’ve done is used a digital editing program to massively magnify the object I had observed and in addition I’ve slowed it down so that it can be viewed frame by frame.

What appears to be rapidly flickering multi-colored lights when viewed in the original un-magnified material has become an amazing morphing complex image that not only exhibits huge changes in color and luminosity, but also absolutely impossible variations in physical conformation morphing from one frame to the next from an object resembling a “Borg” Cube to a saucer to an insect and many other even stranger shapes as well.

My camera films at 30 frames per second and the object is morphing at least as fast as that if not faster.
Here’s the original footage so you can see what the object looked like as it was filmed and to give you an idea how fast it was changing and how much it was moving.Note that the stars which can be seen as solid colored (red, blue and green) dots on the video and in photos are neither blurred nor moving.

This of course means that it was in fact the object – and not the camera – that was moving. If you can show me footage of something that looks largely similar to what I’ve got here but which has been conclusively identified I will be surprised shocked.

I’ve had a fascination with the sky since I was a child and I’ve never before seen anything even remotely like this.

Incidentally, it is worth checking out the original video on YouTube. In addition to the UFO file, there are a number of other videos I’ve uploaded that are equally odd – especially if you’re into creepy crawlies.

    it’s kinda lame that that huge youtube image keeps re-linking to your page, rather than the video you shot :-d
