UFO sighting in China airport (VIDEO) Was it debris from an American intercontinental missile, as some Chinese authorities are saying? Or is it a test of some new Chinese military weapon?

Despite various reports stating both, the unidentified flying object spotted over China remains a mystery. The appearance of the UFO caused a massive display of white light in the sky, in a formation that appears to be an elongated cloud that turns into a single bright light moving through the atmosphere.

An unidentified flying object (UFO), which in some photos looks a little like a comb laying on its side, disrupted air traffic over Xiaoshan Airport in Zhejiang's provincial capital Hangzhou late on Wednesday, reports China Daily.

1. Breaking News: Martian Industries opens new saucer plant in Hangzhou

This is just ridiculous. Taking jobs from Martian Unions.

2. This makes me very, very angry

[DevonRex]

39. hahahahahaha

:P

3. Cheney gets a new heart machine implant and a UFO shows up in China?

Coincidence?

I don't think so. The airport is directly under his hospital through the earth's core.

[underpants]

5. LOL

His house in the DC area does backup to the CIA headquarters :think:

[TexasObserver]

4. Appears to be a missile that went awry, but ultimately took off.

To points unknown.

It may be an unidentified, but it isn't unknown by their government or ours, and it is homegrown.

[Lorien]

6. It was probably a spy satellite. I've seen them shot off from Port Canaveral

here at dusk and they look much the same.

[Octafish]

7. Must've been something to shut down the airport and make it past China TV censors.

Here are more pics and videos:

While I dunno what it was, I'd like to learn more about it -- or them.

[Yeahyeah]

24. We seem to have a case of 2 compleatly different UFO's,being reported as one,or something.

[Octafish]

31. Excellent observations, yours.

Stunning images, they are. And two different stories they tell.

In the video, the light moves across the sky and leaves that vapor trail. As it moves, a cloud grows and then the light source pops out and continues.

In the stills, apparently taken from different locations by different photographers, the thing appears like a portable Iomega hard drive with lights.

[Cetacea]

30. That's a very compelling image.

The beam of light is very cool. I think that is what witnesses were describing when they said it had a "tail" similar to a comet.

[Octafish]

32. You want compelling?

Baptism of Christ by Aert de Gelder (1645-1727)

[Cetacea]

35. ....

That's very compelling...

Thanks for the link, too. Fascinating.

[defendandprotect]

43. Amazing . . . thank you!!

How many times have Christians seen that photo and failed to question it!!

Various governments have been trying to get this info out --

US is still trying to hide it --

Remember this?

Pres. Carter was told by Poppy Bush/CIA that he -- Carter -- couldn't see the info

on UFO's because he didn't have a high enough security clearance!!

That is -- UFO's have a higher security clearance than the atomic bomb!!

[defendandprotect]

41. It certainly is some of the clearest pics I've ever seen . . . .

[defendandprotect]

40. Agree . . . but it's a dangerous subject ... obviously --

I posted this in 9/11 just to save the Mods time --

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=125x290668

There were two or three individual sightings recently --

and China has had many sightings --

Recall the NY Times 15 years or more ago running a first page story on all the UFO

activity in China --

and they showed this like two inch by 3 inch photo on the front page of a Chinese woman

pointing to the sky -- NO PICS OF UFOS --

Meanwhile, the article which continued inside the newspaper was length and had NO PICS --

and frequently mentioned how many pictures had been taken of them!!


The number and intensity of the comments here suggest that this is still a high power issue

which threatens those in control --


Obviously, other govenments are trying to get info out on this --

US looks like the nay sayer on the issue --

Remember that UFO's are covered by an even higher security level than the atomic bomb!

Carter made that clear when he was told by Poppy Bush/CIA that he -- Carter -- didn't have

a high enough clearance to see the information on UFO's!!

:)

[Yeahyeah]

52. The big tree in front of the light beam looks kind of like Godzilla.

Go go Godzilla!

8. to me the picture looks like a fish in a tank.

[TalkingDog]

9. Many more pics here

http://www.earthfiles.com/news.php?ID=1730&category=Environment

Here's the one I like:

[anarch]

10. these appear to be long-exposure pictures of various aircraft, taken at night

to me, anyway. On the other hand, I don't think there's any particularly compelling reason to think these pictures have anything to do with this recent what-have-you in China.

[TalkingDog]

18. Hmmm...#1 Read the article. And follow the links it provides to the Chinese newspaper

that initially published it.

#2 So a bunch of people all over the city spontaneously decided to simultaneously use a camera they could set to a long exposure? Or alternately, one person can instantaneously move from one completely different location to another, long exposing in each location? Or there was a "flash" mob type event where everyone taking pictures was told to put it on a long exposure.

Occam's razor dude.... use it.


I'm not saying I know what it is....I'm just saying your hypothesis is weak.

[northernlights]

21. those pictures are of the object

there were multiple photos published in the Chinese news. The government said it was going to explain the phenomenon. And then it explained nothing and elevated the situation to top secret. The beam of light is particularly interesting, imho.

[AsahinaKimi]

11. Interesting ..BUT

I didn't know China had Palm trees (lower left hand corner) like they do in Southern California.



Maybe someone who has been there can verify that??

[TalkingDog]

20. And America didn't have Kuzu (kudzu) until we imported it in the late 1800's

What's your point?

[AsahinaKimi]

26. I would have thought my point was obvious

apparently not.

[TalkingDog]

38. Still waiting

what is the point, in this day and age of international travel and commercial migration of all types of flora and fauna, of mentioning that there is a palm tree growing in a Chinese city?

Please, enlighten me as to your nominally termed thought process.

[defendandprotect]

44. Terrific pics . .. there's video on that . . .

12. looks like a sprem ...

A huge sperm ... but still a sperm.

13. The Department of Blurry Photography. n/t

[underpants]

14. The dreaded BigFoot-LochNess effect

seems that on the few occasions that someone just happens to get the definitive shot of a legendary "monster" or UFO they just happen to have brought their camera that doesn't quite focus

DARN THE LUCK!

[Cetacea]

29. Ever tried taken a pic of a moving object at night?

It's the bane of photographers everywhere. To me, the more blurry, the more realistic.
As a matter of fact, taking a spontaneous picture in daylight is a formidable feat. It's one aspect of photography that will hopefully not change no matter the technological advances.

[Orsino]

34. It ensures that few, if any, such photos will ever be taken seriously. n/t

[Cetacea]

36. A blurry photo of the moon still captures the moon.

Besides, there is plenty of detail in this new crop of photos. Skeptics will never be satisfied no matter how good the images. They keep moving the bar.

[Orsino]

37. Photos of the moon are reproducible.

Flying saucers are still in the realm of anecdotes.

[Cetacea]

53. "Flying saucers are still in the realm of anecdotes."

UFO's, on the other hand, are established fact. These are exceptionally good photos of a UFO.
Just as clear as any Zapruder stills.

[defendandprotect]

45. These certainly aren't "blurry" . . .

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=125x290668

[Orsino]

48. Every one of them is blurry. n/t

[defendandprotect]

49. It's "blurry" for someone who doesn't want to see anything --

[Orsino]

54. What do you see?

Seriously--what?

[Lucian]

15. Obviously it's a UFO.

If they knew what it was, it wouldn't be a UFO. :P

[ThomWV]

16. It looks exactly like missiles we used to see (launched from the cape) when we lived in Miami

Years ago my wife and I lived in Miami. If they launched a missile in the early evening or early morning from the Cape we'd see them and that is exactly what they looked like.

[Lucian]

17. It's moving too slow for a missile.

:shrug:

[TalkingDog]

19. Since you've seen this before, what is the light projecting out of the "bottom" surface? n/t

[northernlights]

23. hovering overhead, beaming a light to the surface?

really?

[Cetacea]

28. Doesn't look like any missles I've seen.

And I've seen a lot.

[defendandprotect]

46. That's not a missile . . . by any stretch of the imagination ... try again --

[guitar man]

50. You're talking about the video, right?

That's certainly what it looks like to me, a two (or more) stage rocket launch being filmed from quite a way off. If you look right around :34-35, you can see the puff of smoke as the stage is blown off during separation.

I don't know what that is in the still pics but I'm 99.9% sure of what I see in the video

[Catshrink]

22. More outsourcing

[Yeahyeah]

25. Pity those poor alien bastards trying to navigate through that Chinese smog.

[Freetradesucks]

27. Missile

It's a missile or rocket. It appears to be moving slowly due to the away facing trajectory.

[Touchdown]

33. It's a bird turd on the lense!

[guitar man]

42. Rocket

Looks like a multi-stage rocket to me, what appears to be a stage seperation at about :37 :shrug:

[Yeahyeah]

51. What's with all the UFO's shining down blue light?
