1 00:00:07,730 --> 00:00:05,630 hello it's Monday May 22nd 2017 you are 2 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:07,740 listening to inception radio network 3 00:00:15,860 --> 00:00:10,530 voice of the fringe majority this is 4 00:00:17,930 --> 00:00:15,870 Carol Carl with UFO headline news gentle 5 00:00:20,570 --> 00:00:17,940 listeners if you were awake before dawn 6 00:00:22,790 --> 00:00:20,580 this morning you might have seen if it 7 00:00:24,859 --> 00:00:22,800 was fair and clear that is something 8 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:24,869 kind of amazing in the sky in that 9 00:00:28,099 --> 00:00:27,570 unobstructed view if you got it toward 10 00:00:30,230 --> 00:00:28,109 the east 11 00:00:32,299 --> 00:00:30,240 there's a lovely pairing of the two 12 00:00:35,150 --> 00:00:32,309 brightest objects in the night sky the 13 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:35,160 moon and Venus it's going to happen 14 00:00:41,810 --> 00:00:37,890 again tonight our source today is space 15 00:00:43,340 --> 00:00:41,820 comm and Joe Rao gets the byline he says 16 00:00:45,950 --> 00:00:43,350 we're going to immediately notice that 17 00:00:48,110 --> 00:00:45,960 crescent moon appearing as a slender 18 00:00:50,979 --> 00:00:48,120 sliver the moon's disc will be 19 00:00:53,810 --> 00:00:50,989 illuminated just 16% by sunlight 20 00:00:56,029 --> 00:00:53,820 hovering to the upper left of the lunar 21 00:00:58,189 --> 00:00:56,039 Crescent will be the planet Venus 22 00:01:01,130 --> 00:00:58,199 shining like a bright silvery white 23 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:01,140 celestial Lantern it's magnitude minus 24 00:01:06,380 --> 00:01:03,930 4.6 on the brightness scale the one used 25 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:06,390 by astronomers the two objects will be 26 00:01:11,469 --> 00:01:09,090 separated by roughly 3.5 to 4 degrees 27 00:01:14,719 --> 00:01:11,479 that's roughly equal to less than 28 00:01:17,210 --> 00:01:14,729 one-half the apparent width of your fist 29 00:01:18,890 --> 00:01:17,220 held out at arm's length this won't be 30 00:01:20,719 --> 00:01:18,900 an exceptionally close approach between 31 00:01:22,820 --> 00:01:20,729 these two objects but they're great 32 00:01:25,010 --> 00:01:22,830 brilliance makes them an eye-catching 33 00:01:28,010 --> 00:01:25,020 sights in the early morning sky and 34 00:01:30,380 --> 00:01:28,020 mercury will also be visible very low on 35 00:01:33,590 --> 00:01:30,390 the eastern horizon to the lower left of 36 00:01:36,679 --> 00:01:33,600 both objects and of course what we'll 37 00:01:41,300 --> 00:01:36,689 see is an illusion of perspective the 38 00:01:44,749 --> 00:01:41,310 moon is 229 thousand miles 369 thousand 39 00:01:47,899 --> 00:01:44,759 kilometers from Earth while Venus is 243 40 00:01:50,149 --> 00:01:47,909 times farther away at 55 point seven 41 00:01:53,090 --> 00:01:50,159 million miles or eighty nine point six 42 00:01:55,460 --> 00:01:53,100 million kilometers Venus will arrive at 43 00:01:58,010 --> 00:01:55,470 its greatest Western elongation that 44 00:02:00,859 --> 00:01:58,020 greatest angular distance west of the 45 00:02:03,260 --> 00:02:00,869 Sun not until June 3rd but it will 46 00:02:05,450 --> 00:02:03,270 slowly get higher in the Eastern morning 47 00:02:08,119 --> 00:02:05,460 sky right through the first half of the 48 00:02:10,460 --> 00:02:08,129 summer right now Venus is rising two 49 00:02:12,710 --> 00:02:10,470 hours before the Sun but by the third 50 00:02:13,750 --> 00:02:12,720 week of July that will have increased to 51 00:02:16,330 --> 00:02:13,760 three hours 52 00:02:18,070 --> 00:02:16,340 and Venus will shine at nearly that same 53 00:02:20,020 --> 00:02:18,080 brilliance for a number of mornings to 54 00:02:22,390 --> 00:02:20,030 come so you won't have to miss it 55 00:02:26,350 --> 00:02:22,400 currently Mina's rises in the East at 56 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:26,360 3:45 a.m. your local time the eerie low 57 00:02:31,180 --> 00:02:28,970 glimmering of Venus is a harbinger of 58 00:02:33,009 --> 00:02:31,190 daybreak which will only begin minutes 59 00:02:35,380 --> 00:02:33,019 later if you've got access to a 60 00:02:37,869 --> 00:02:35,390 telescope you'd see that Venus's 61 00:02:40,660 --> 00:02:37,879 illuminated portion has fattened to 62 00:02:43,210 --> 00:02:40,670 almost half full and once you know where 63 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:43,220 Venus is relative to the moon see if you 64 00:02:46,690 --> 00:02:45,170 can see the planet after the Sun has 65 00:02:49,180 --> 00:02:46,700 come up you shouldn't have a problem 66 00:02:51,699 --> 00:02:49,190 glimpsing it in the daytime it's going 67 00:02:54,789 --> 00:02:51,709 to appear as a tiny white speck against 68 00:02:56,979 --> 00:02:54,799 the blue sky and incidentally on Monday 69 00:02:59,710 --> 00:02:56,989 the moon will not be within one of the 70 00:03:01,720 --> 00:02:59,720 12 zodiac signs nope it's going to be 71 00:03:05,259 --> 00:03:01,730 just within the border of the 72 00:03:07,660 --> 00:03:05,269 constellation Cetus CET us Cetus the 73 00:03:10,390 --> 00:03:07,670 whale because the moon isn't always 74 00:03:12,910 --> 00:03:10,400 positioned exactly on the elliptic its 75 00:03:15,309 --> 00:03:12,920 orbit is tilted slightly relative to the 76 00:03:17,890 --> 00:03:15,319 orbital plane of Earth it sometimes can 77 00:03:20,050 --> 00:03:17,900 stray into constellations immediately 78 00:03:23,110 --> 00:03:20,060 adjacent to those traditional zodiacal 79 00:03:25,210 --> 00:03:23,120 signs and Monday today that's one of 80 00:03:27,129 --> 00:03:25,220 those occasions as it is 81 00:03:30,039 --> 00:03:27,139 Cetus the whale what you've just heard 82 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:30,049 might be considered says Jo Rao a whale 83 00:03:35,289 --> 00:03:32,810 of a tale there are some cool graphics 84 00:03:38,890 --> 00:03:35,299 and photos that accompany this article 85 00:03:41,530 --> 00:03:38,900 head on over to UFO headline news calm 86 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:41,540 later and check them out time for an 87 00:03:47,319 --> 00:03:43,730 update on that alien mega-structure 88 00:03:50,289 --> 00:03:47,329 tabby star headline that weird alien 89 00:03:53,470 --> 00:03:50,299 mega-structure star is dimming again 90 00:03:55,569 --> 00:03:53,480 right now ser effect gets the byline 91 00:03:58,300 --> 00:03:55,579 here for the science department of 92 00:04:00,879 --> 00:03:58,310 popular science here's what she writes 93 00:04:03,270 --> 00:04:00,889 in late 2015 94 00:04:05,159 --> 00:04:03,280 astronomers noticed something absurd 95 00:04:08,140 --> 00:04:05,169 happening around a distant star 96 00:04:11,129 --> 00:04:08,150 something massive seemed to be blocking 97 00:04:14,229 --> 00:04:11,139 as much as 20% of that star's light 98 00:04:17,439 --> 00:04:14,239 that's way too much to be a planet it 99 00:04:20,319 --> 00:04:17,449 might be comets or maybe an alien made 100 00:04:22,630 --> 00:04:20,329 Dyson swarm the problem is that none of 101 00:04:25,060 --> 00:04:22,640 the hypotheses that scientists have come 102 00:04:27,370 --> 00:04:25,070 up with including that one about aliens 103 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:27,380 really fits the data 104 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:29,090 that leads them to think that some 105 00:04:34,090 --> 00:04:31,370 as-yet-undiscovered phenomena is 106 00:04:36,700 --> 00:04:34,100 happening around this star for years 107 00:04:38,410 --> 00:04:36,710 astronomer Tabitha Boyajian and her 108 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:38,420 colleagues have been waiting for the 109 00:04:42,850 --> 00:04:40,610 mysterious light dips to happen again so 110 00:04:44,590 --> 00:04:42,860 they could collect more data and try to 111 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:44,600 get to the bottom of this mystery and 112 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:49,130 now the star is finally dimming again 113 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:53,090 writes Jason right it's a tweet alert T 114 00:04:59,200 --> 00:04:56,090 Boyajian star is dipping this is not a 115 00:05:01,210 --> 00:04:59,210 drill the researchers had suspected 116 00:05:03,010 --> 00:05:01,220 another dip was happening but the 117 00:05:05,370 --> 00:05:03,020 morning of May 19th 118 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:05,380 the Fairborn Observatory in Arizona 119 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:07,970 confirmed that the star indeed has 120 00:05:14,230 --> 00:05:11,210 dimmed by 3% by comparison a 121 00:05:16,150 --> 00:05:14,240 jupiter-sized planet would block 1% of a 122 00:05:19,660 --> 00:05:16,160 star's light at the very most 123 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:19,670 that's King planet Jupiter the team has 124 00:05:23,980 --> 00:05:21,530 put out a call for amateur astronomers 125 00:05:26,110 --> 00:05:23,990 and large observatories to point their 126 00:05:29,500 --> 00:05:26,120 scopes at the star and try to collect 127 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:29,510 data the Swift Keck Fairborn and Lick 128 00:05:33,370 --> 00:05:31,730 Observatory telescopes are among the 129 00:05:35,740 --> 00:05:33,380 observatories who will be helping in 130 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:35,750 this effort in particular the 131 00:05:39,970 --> 00:05:37,490 astronomers want to see how the star 132 00:05:41,650 --> 00:05:39,980 looks in different wavelengths that's 133 00:05:44,110 --> 00:05:41,660 because different materials will block 134 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:44,120 some wavelengths but not others that'll 135 00:05:48,430 --> 00:05:46,010 offer clues to the identity of any 136 00:05:50,890 --> 00:05:48,440 circumstellar material which could be 137 00:05:52,420 --> 00:05:50,900 blocking the light if it's dust that's 138 00:05:54,250 --> 00:05:52,430 blocking the light the spectra should 139 00:05:56,860 --> 00:05:54,260 show big dips in the blue and 140 00:05:59,740 --> 00:05:56,870 ultraviolet wavelengths if it's other 141 00:06:02,200 --> 00:05:59,750 stuff orbiting the star like a family of 142 00:06:04,840 --> 00:06:02,210 huge comets then the observations should 143 00:06:07,450 --> 00:06:04,850 show extra heat being radiated off of 144 00:06:10,510 --> 00:06:07,460 this kind of stuff so far that access 145 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:10,520 infrared has remained elusive but Jason 146 00:06:14,950 --> 00:06:12,410 Wright that astronomer from Penn State 147 00:06:17,380 --> 00:06:14,960 said that the new observations which 148 00:06:20,350 --> 00:06:17,390 began on the 19th could provide that 149 00:06:22,390 --> 00:06:20,360 first evidence if it's an alien 150 00:06:24,790 --> 00:06:22,400 mega-structure or some kind of internal 151 00:06:28,060 --> 00:06:24,800 process all of the wavelengths should 152 00:06:30,430 --> 00:06:28,070 get dimmer equally a bizarre signature 153 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:30,440 such as tritium or artificial elements 154 00:06:35,260 --> 00:06:33,170 would be pretty strong hints for aliens 155 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:35,270 although it would take an extraordinary 156 00:06:40,690 --> 00:06:37,610 amount of evidence to prove such an 157 00:06:41,170 --> 00:06:40,700 extraordinary claim Jason Wright said 158 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:41,180 they might 159 00:06:46,029 --> 00:06:43,370 have some preliminary results back as 160 00:06:48,460 --> 00:06:46,039 soon as the 20th of May but other data 161 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:48,470 will take longer to analyze he said 162 00:06:53,110 --> 00:06:50,570 quote I don't think we're going to solve 163 00:06:55,390 --> 00:06:53,120 the puzzle this weekend end quotes but 164 00:06:57,129 --> 00:06:55,400 he added that this weekend maybe when 165 00:07:00,850 --> 00:06:57,139 they collect that data it will 166 00:07:03,100 --> 00:07:00,860 eventually solve that puzzle and here at 167 00:07:05,890 --> 00:07:03,110 UFO headline news we will let you know 168 00:07:08,770 --> 00:07:05,900 what we can find out here's what we 169 00:07:11,260 --> 00:07:08,780 found out about that shag harbour UFO 170 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:11,270 festival with the denial of their 171 00:07:15,820 --> 00:07:13,490 funding by the Canadian government they 172 00:07:18,189 --> 00:07:15,830 wanted to go big for the fiftieth 173 00:07:19,689 --> 00:07:18,199 anniversary celebration event but it 174 00:07:21,820 --> 00:07:19,699 didn't look like it was going to happen 175 00:07:25,060 --> 00:07:21,830 beyond their usual grassroots approach 176 00:07:26,980 --> 00:07:25,070 and Brock Zink was very disappointed 177 00:07:28,810 --> 00:07:26,990 he's organizing the festival he also 178 00:07:30,249 --> 00:07:28,820 complained that for some reason the 179 00:07:32,950 --> 00:07:30,259 government has never given them a 180 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:32,960 highway turn off site in other words if 181 00:07:37,420 --> 00:07:35,090 you want to go to shag harbour in 182 00:07:39,339 --> 00:07:37,430 Shelburne County Nova Scotia for the 183 00:07:42,310 --> 00:07:39,349 festival well you're going to have to 184 00:07:45,159 --> 00:07:42,320 use a Google map or some such but here's 185 00:07:48,969 --> 00:07:45,169 an article from open mind TV posted by 186 00:07:51,850 --> 00:07:48,979 alejandro rojas headline anonymous donor 187 00:07:55,210 --> 00:07:51,860 saves shag harbour UFO incidents 188 00:07:57,310 --> 00:07:55,220 fiftieth anniversary event earlier this 189 00:07:59,980 --> 00:07:57,320 week a newspaper in Shelburne County 190 00:08:02,500 --> 00:07:59,990 Nova Scotia reported that an event plan 191 00:08:04,930 --> 00:08:02,510 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of one 192 00:08:07,870 --> 00:08:04,940 of Canada's most famous UFO incidents 193 00:08:09,730 --> 00:08:07,880 was in jeopardy due to funding that 194 00:08:12,610 --> 00:08:09,740 event is being organized by the shag 195 00:08:14,529 --> 00:08:12,620 harbour UFO incident society they'd 196 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:14,539 hoped to secure a grant offered by 197 00:08:19,870 --> 00:08:16,250 Canada's Department of Communities 198 00:08:22,180 --> 00:08:19,880 culture and heritage unfortunately they 199 00:08:24,430 --> 00:08:22,190 were not approved for the grant and that 200 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:24,440 put the events future in question they 201 00:08:29,589 --> 00:08:26,330 were never going to cancel but it was 202 00:08:31,589 --> 00:08:29,599 going to go small according to the shag 203 00:08:34,390 --> 00:08:31,599 harbour UFO incident society an 204 00:08:37,329 --> 00:08:34,400

crunch the data 341 00:14:21,990 --> 00:14:20,050 for the state of New York and it 342 00:14:24,540 --> 00:14:22,000 suddenly started revealing patterns that 343 00:14:27,180 --> 00:14:24,550 none of the UFO researchers in New York 344 00:14:28,890 --> 00:14:27,190 had ever seen before in quotes and then 345 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:28,900 they decided to check out the entire 346 00:14:34,950 --> 00:14:31,890 nation using that big data approach 347 00:14:36,750 --> 00:14:34,960 right Sheryl quote I started downloading 348 00:14:40,260 --> 00:14:36,760 the national UFO Reporting Center 349

00:14:52,590 --> 00:14:49,180 2000 to 2015 that's 500 and 2000 plus in 353 00:14:54,540 --> 00:14:52,600 New York and on the increase now the 354 00:14:57,090 --> 00:14:54,550 causes aren't trying to convince us 355 00:14:59,190 --> 00:14:57,100 quote we couldn't set out to prove alien 356 00:15:01,620 --> 00:14:59,200 life exists but people have been telling 357 00:15:03,090 --> 00:15:01,630 us for a number of years quote UFO 358 00:15:06,900 --> 00:15:03,100 sightings they've been on the decline 359 00:15:10,380 --> 00:15:06,910 since the 1980s end quotes well we set 360 00:15:13,890 --> 00:15:10,390 out to prove that wrong their book UFO 361 00:15:16,470 --> 00:15:13,900 sightings Desk Reference 2001 to 2015 362 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:16,480 has breakdowns of the reported sightings 363 00:15:21,180 --> 00:15:18,850 from every state down to the county 364 00:15:22,950 --> 00:15:21,190 level the information came from the 365 00:15:25,140 --> 00:15:22,960 national organizations that collect 366 00:15:27,780 --> 00:15:25,150 sighting reports the mutual UFO network 367 00:15:29,910 --> 00:15:27,790 MUFON and the national UFO Reporting 368 00:15:32,310 --> 00:15:29,920 Center new Fork 369 00:15:34,259 --> 00:15:32,320 shape-wise regarding the object 370 00:15:37,889 --> 00:15:34,269 apparently the number of reports seeing 371 00:15:40,319 --> 00:15:37,899 a circle shape 657 that's the highest 372 00:15:43,350 --> 00:15:40,329 shape frequency in the state of New York 373 00:15:45,750 --> 00:15:43,360 reports but Cheryl Kosta says the data 374 00:15:48,300 --> 00:15:45,760 revealed other findings there are 375 00:15:51,900 --> 00:15:48,310 clusters around the st. Lawrence and 376 00:15:54,509 --> 00:15:51,910 Hudson Rivers quote those two waterways 377 00:15:56,460 --> 00:15:54,519 alone on first appearance it doesn't 378 00:15:59,970 --> 00:15:56,470 look that way but when you add them up 379 00:16:02,040 --> 00:15:59,980 they are 51% of New York State sightings 380 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:02,050 and people have always been saying these 381 00:16:07,079 --> 00:16:04,570 things hang out around water for some 382 00:16:09,300 --> 00:16:07,089 reason and quotes Chris Boldt who writes 383 00:16:11,850 --> 00:16:09,310 this article talked with Cheryl Costa up 384 00:16:14,060 --> 00:16:11,860 on Onondaga Hill thinking that less 385 00:16:16,650 --> 00:16:14,070 light pollution equalled more sightings 386 00:16:20,009 --> 00:16:16,660 but sheriff says the bulk come from 387 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:20,019 urban areas as she says quote it raises 388 00:16:24,210 --> 00:16:22,690 the question are we seeing more UFOs in 389 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:24,220 the city because there's more people 390 00:16:28,620 --> 00:16:26,170 there to see them or is it because 391 00:16:31,790 --> 00:16:28,630 there's more people there and the UFOs 392 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:31,800 are studying the people and quotes Oh 393 00:16:36,750 --> 00:16:33,610 excellent question 394 00:16:38,009 --> 00:16:36,760 Cheryl Costa emphasizes the book UFO 395 00:16:40,439 --> 00:16:38,019 sightings Desk Reference 396 00:16:42,630 --> 00:16:40,449 mostly charts and graphs of data state 397 00:16:45,750 --> 00:16:42,640 by state down to county level does not 398 00:16:47,610 --> 00:16:45,760 prove existence that's a job she says 399 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:47,620 for scientists academics maybe 400 00:16:51,780 --> 00:16:49,570 government even though the Air Force 401 00:16:55,259 --> 00:16:51,790 stopped investigating reports officially 402 00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:55,269 in 1968 the book does group sightings by 403 00:17:00,720 --> 00:16:57,970 form for instance discs cigar shapes and 404 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:00,730 Cheryl Costa says the truth is in the 405 00:17:08,270 --> 00:17:03,370 shapes and in that six to seven percent 406 00:17:11,090

426 00:18:07,020 --> 00:18:04,060 little more specific hovering than path 427 00:18:09,780 --> 00:18:07,030 a path and then hovering then this 428 00:18:12,420 --> 00:18:09,790 object was shaped like a sphere there is 429 00:18:14,310 --> 00:18:12,430 weather maximum temperature in Attleboro 430 00:18:17,420 --> 00:18:14,320 Massachusetts at the time of this event 431 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:17,430 70 degrees Fahrenheit 21 degrees Celsius 432 00:18:22,500 --> 00:18:19,690 dropping down to a minimum temperature 433 00:18:25,470 --> 00:18:22,510 of 46 degrees Fahrenheit eight degrees 434

time of this 437 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:32,550 sighting there was nothing abnormal 438 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:36,210 about the weather here's the account 439 00:18:42,060 --> 00:18:40,090 first-person unedited we were taking a 440 00:18:44,550 --> 00:18:42,070 late night walk and I happen to look up 441 00:18:47,370 --> 00:18:44,560 and see Mars bigger than I had ever seen 442 00:18:49,410 --> 00:18:47,380 it before I was just pointing it out to 443 00:18:49,970 --> 00:18:49,420 my boyfriend when I realized it was 444 00:18:53,610 --> 00:18:49,980 moving 445 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:53,620 albeit very slowly at first I thought it 446 00:18:58,950 --> 00:18:56,290 was a plane but it was far too low in 447 00:19:01,170 --> 00:18:58,960 the sky to be moving that slowly and it 448 00:19:03,900 --> 00:19:01,180 wasn't a consistent speed at times it 449 00:19:06,900 --> 00:19:03,910 seemed to not be moving at all or just 450 00:19:08,790 --> 00:19:06,910 barely I would describe it as meandering 451 00:19:10,830 --> 00:19:08,800 because while it did not change 452 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:10,840 direction it wasn't a completely 453 00:19:16,470 --> 00:19:13,450 straight line it also appeared to be 454 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:16,480 faintly pulsing unfortunately we were 455 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:18,490 unprepared for something like this we 456 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:21,610 only managed to photos and to videos the 457 00:19:25,950 --> 00:19:23,410 object appeared much bigger than it 458 00:19:28,410 --> 00:19:25,960 looks on the videos the photo one is the 459 00:19:30,690 --> 00:19:28,420 best one it represents the apparent size 460 00:19:33,360 --> 00:19:30,700 and the glow that's what made me think 461 00:19:34,950 --> 00:19:33,370 it was Mars this occurred on a dark 462 00:19:37,050 --> 00:19:34,960 Street which makes it hard to find a 463 00:19:39,180 --> 00:19:37,060 reference point in the videos but in 464 00:19:41,250 --> 00:19:39,190 video one you can see to the right of 465 00:19:43,350 --> 00:19:41,260 the object there's a telephone pole if 466 00:19:46,140 --> 00:19:43,360 you could increase brightness in that 467 00:19:47,910 --> 00:19:46,150 video somehow the telephone pole helps 468 00:19:51,090 --> 00:19:47,920 you'll realize how it was drifting and 469 00:19:52,980 --> 00:19:51,100 traveling not quite straight video 470 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:52,990 number two I moved to a better position 471 00:19:57,090 --> 00:19:55,210 but it has no reference point that I can 472 00:19:59,190 --> 00:19:57,100 see now to the 473 00:20:02,279 --> 00:19:59,200 naked-eye this object never stopped 474 00:20:04,770 --> 00:20:02,289 glowing but picture number 2 taken on a 475 00:20:08,130 --> 00:20:04,780 phone with a better zoom shows a dull 476 00:20:11,190 --> 00:20:08,140 not glowing round object with some sort 477 00:20:12,870 --> 00:20:11,200 of indentation from the moment I noticed 478 00:20:15,180 --> 00:20:12,880 it in the sky to the end of the sighting 479 00:20:17,549 --> 00:20:15,190 was probably about 1 to 2 minutes total 480 00:20:19,289 --> 00:20:17,559 I asked my boyfriend to hand me my phone 481 00:20:21,570 --> 00:20:19,299 back at which point he looked down to 482 00:20:24,299 --> 00:20:21,580 hand it to me I looked down to grab it 483 00:20:27,270 --> 00:20:24,309 and in that split-second that neither of 484 00:20:30,029 --> 00:20:27,280 us were looking the object vanished it 485 00:20:32,580 --> 00:20:30,039 was there and then it wasn't it wasn't 486 00:20:35,100 --> 00:20:32,590 visible in any direction it hadn't left 487 00:20:37,649 --> 00:20:35,110 a trail there was no flash nothing 488 00:20:41,430 --> 00:20:37,659 noticeable in our peripheral vision it 489 00:20:44,360
