Video Creates a UFO Stir(Photo)

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - The Mexican Air Force has released footage of what a UFO expert said were 11 invisible unidentified flying objects picked up by an infrared camera as they whizzed around a surveillance plane.



A long-time believer in flying saucers, journalist Jaime Maussan told a news conference on Tuesday the objects were real and seemed "intelligent" after they at one point changed direction and surrounded the plane chasing them.


"They were invisible to the eye but they were there, there is no doubt about it. They had mass, they had energy and they were moving about," he said, after showing a 15-minute video he said the Defense Ministry gave him permission to publicize.


The ministry confirmed to Reuters it had provided the video, filmed by the Air Force on March 5 over the eastern coastal state of Campeche.

3. Discussed at DU already - some comments posted earlier below

the best proof that "intelligent" life exists on other planets is that they've never tried to contact us.

In the tape, broadcast by Televisa network, the UFOs appear as white spots in the sky. http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2004/05/12/1084289693075.html The footage shows bright lights with "movements and characteristics that do not have - up to now - a scientific explanation," according to the Televisa network. The air force pilots are heard expressing amazement on the tape. http://www.iol.co.za/index.php?click_id=122&art_id=qw1084294082176B252...

But some folks say just some JSFs and F-22s because the Joint Strike Fighter has three exhaust plumes, one from the main exhaust and one ducted thrust vane on each side (There are actually two interchangeable engines being developed for the aircraft, neither of which is acknowledged to be in the flying stage, where the Pratt & Whiney engine design is closely based upon the famed F-119 "supercruise" engine, already in use on the F-22, which has an exhaust that is rectangular, and since the photo on the Rense's site one of the exhausts appears to be rectangular). As far as being visible at short range on radar and FLIR, stealth aircraft aren't invisible -They just get detected at much shorter ranges. That might explain how they appeared to "come out of nowhere.".


Plus Fox is saying ionized gas hiding image so it appears out of nonwhere, and others noting The way the pattern repeats looks like a double reflection. Like you sometimes get from laminated glass, such as safety glass.
