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.

"We are not alone! This is so weird," one of the pilots can be heard

 yelling,

after the plane's crew switched on an infrared camera to track the

 objects,

first picked up by radar.

The film, recorded by a plane looking for drugs trafficking near the

 Gulf
 of

Mexico, shows 11 objects as blobs of light that hover in formation or

 dart

about, sometimes disappearing into cloud.

Mexico's most popular nightly news broadcast showed the video on Monday

 night.


Interviewed by Mausson on another section of the video, the pilots said

 they

grew nervous when the objects, still invisible, turned back during a

 chase
 and

surrounded the plane.

"There was a moment when ... the screens showed they were behind us, to

 the left

and in front of us. It was at that point that I felt a bit tense," said

 Maj.

Magdaleno Castanon.

Mexico has a long history of fanciful UFO sightings, most of which are

 dismissed

by scientists as space debris, missiles, weather balloons, natural

 weather

phenomena or hoaxes.

Note that just because the pilots switched on IR cameras to get a better

 look,

does not mean the objects were actually invisible.
As per the other poster's question, I don't see anything about where to

get

video. It should be good!
