Wow! It's interesting to have the element of an authoritarian government that can intimidate citizens into attesting to anything, when you already have the problem of snippets of film and no perspective, plus the standard shapes that have already been shown with their attached strings.

 

I didn't see a barrel shape, and I didn't see any smoke, so I don't think they have their smoking gun.

You're a hard man lemit I was willing to let it run a couple days before I pointed that out! I thought those shapes looked a little bit familar, either they are what real alien space craft look like or .......

"Show us your belly button!" :-P

I always find it funny that all these ufo sightings are still saucer shaped. I mean, wouldnt an alien have a more effecient type of ship? Wouldn't it take mass amounts of energy to keep a flying saucer flying in a straight line? Unless its a probe, which is a mroe probable answer. But if there really was a UFO sighting in china, the government would be all over it. I bet they even looked this over very closely before allowing people to release this footage.

I think I've posted this elsewhere, but "flying saucer" comes from Kenneth Arnold, who in 1947 reported having seen a cigar-shaped object (or a weather balloon-shaped object) making erratic motions "like a saucer if you skip it across the water," mistaking the perception problem caused by viewing objects in the sky without a frame of reference. Since then, people have been seeing (and creating) saucer-shaped objects in the sky.

 

I have often written that if Arnold had used the normal object that people skip across water--my mother would have been upset if we'd skipped saucers across our farm ponds--people might well have been seeing flying stones since then.

Looks as if this particular rhomboid-shaped craft left a rainbow in its wake....

 

 

I wonder if it was a windy day in China--there in the region of that other UFO sighting....
