[Music]

3
00:00:08,070 --> 00:00:05,359
hello it's thursday august 10 2017. you

4
00:00:10,470 --> 00:00:08,080
are listening to inception radio network

5
00:00:15,829 --> 00:00:10,480
voice of the fringe majority this is

6
00:00:21,590 --> 00:00:18,070
we are not through with a perseid meteor

7
00:00:24,070 --> 00:00:21,600
shower not by a long shot and earth sky

8
00:00:25,189 --> 00:00:24,080
brings us a little bit more about how to

9
00:00:27,990 --> 00:00:25,199
watch them

10
00:00:31,429 --> 00:00:28,000
tonight it's time to start watching them

11
00:00:34,229 --> 00:00:31,439
the peak is this weekend unfortunately

12
00:00:36,310 --> 00:00:34,239
that waning gibbous moon is in the way

13
00:00:38,310 --> 00:00:36,320
during the pre-dawn hours and that's

14
00:00:39,990 --> 00:00:38,320
when the meteors are normally flying

15
00:00:42,549 --> 00:00:40,000
most abundantly

16
00:00:44,470 --> 00:00:42,559
but perseid meteors tend to be bright

17
00:00:46,150 --> 00:00:44,480
the brighter ones may well overcome the

18
00:00:49,750 --> 00:00:46,160
moonlit glare

19
00:00:51,910 --> 00:00:49,760
which dates are best well earthsky.org

20
00:00:54,790 --> 00:00:51,920
is anticipating the mornings of august

21
00:00:57,510 --> 00:00:54,800
12th and 13th but try tomorrow morning

22
00:01:00,950 --> 00:00:57,520
august 11th too and there's tips you can

23
00:01:03,110 --> 00:01:00,960
find later at ufoheadlinenews.com

24
00:01:06,070 --> 00:01:03,120
by the way there's a rumor going around

25
00:01:09,750 --> 00:01:06,080
that the 2017 perseid meteor shower will

26
00:01:11,590 --> 00:01:09,760
be the best in 96 years well as we know

27
00:01:14,710 --> 00:01:11,600
bruce mcclure addressed that already

28
00:01:16,789 --> 00:01:14,720
with a nah it's not true

29
00:01:19,109 --> 00:01:16,799
there are a bunch of tips here provided

30
00:01:21,429 --> 00:01:19,119
by the folks at earthsky.org there are

31
00:01:23,910 --> 00:01:21,439
10 of them we'll pick a few highlights

32
00:01:26,390 --> 00:01:23,920
well the first is try to observe in the

33
00:01:29,749 --> 00:01:26,400
evening hours on those nights august

34
00:01:31,749 --> 00:01:29,759
10th that's tonight 11th and 12th after

35
00:01:34,149 --> 00:01:31,759
the full moon on the 7th the moon's

36
00:01:36,550 --> 00:01:34,159
going to be rising later each night so

37
00:01:39,190 --> 00:01:36,560
watch as late as you can but before

38
00:01:41,109 --> 00:01:39,200
moonrise you won't see as many meteors

39
00:01:43,990 --> 00:01:41,119
during the evening hours but you might

40
00:01:46,870 --> 00:01:44,000
catch those things called earth grazers

41
00:01:49,830 --> 00:01:46,880
the slow-moving long-lasting meteors

42
00:01:52,069 --> 00:01:49,840
they travel horizontally across the sky

43
00:01:54,230 --> 00:01:52,079
if you see even one it'll give you a

44
00:01:55,590 --> 00:01:54,240
great new appreciation for evening

45
00:01:57,429 --> 00:01:55,600
meteor watching

46
00:01:59,990 --> 00:01:57,439
here's another one it's number six

47
00:02:02,870 --> 00:02:00,000
notice the speed and colors if any of

48
00:02:04,950 --> 00:02:02,880
the meteors the perseids are known to be

49
00:02:07,190 --> 00:02:04,960
colorful although the moonlight will

50
00:02:09,910 --> 00:02:07,200
probably drown out their color this year

51
00:02:12,309 --> 00:02:09,920
but it's not going to affect the speed

52
00:02:14,949 --> 00:02:12,319
those perseids are swift moving entering

53
00:02:17,990 --> 00:02:14,959
earth's atmosphere at about 35 miles per

54
00:02:19,670 --> 00:02:18,000
second 60 kilometers per second

55
00:02:22,470 --> 00:02:19,680
and then watch for something called

56
00:02:25,910 --> 00:02:22,480
meteor trains that's tip number seven

57
00:02:28,070 --> 00:02:25,920
a meteor train that's a persistent glow

58
00:02:29,830 --> 00:02:28,080
in the air left by some meteors after

59
00:02:32,150 --> 00:02:29,840
they've faded from view

60
00:02:34,550 --> 00:02:32,160
these trains are caused by luminous

61
00:02:37,110 --> 00:02:34,560
ionized matter left in the wake of this

62
00:02:38,630 --> 00:02:37,120
incoming space debris a good percentage

63
00:02:41,270 --> 00:02:38,640
of perseids are known to leave

64
00:02:43,750 --> 00:02:41,280
persistent trains they linger for a

65
00:02:45,750 --> 00:02:43,760
moment or two after the meteor has gone

66
00:02:48,150 --> 00:02:45,760
again hard to see this year in the

67
00:02:50,949 --> 00:02:48,160
moonlight but watch for them we'll skip

68
00:02:51,990 --> 00:02:50,959
forward to point number 10 embrace the

69
00:02:53,990 --> 00:02:52,000
moon

70
00:02:56,309 --> 00:02:54,000
we hear people bubble with excitement

71
00:02:59,110 --> 00:02:56,319
about seeing the meteors in all sorts of

72
00:03:01,670 --> 00:02:59,120
conditions moon or no moon city lights

73
00:03:03,750 --> 00:03:01,680
or no city lights the perseids in

74
00:03:05,110 --> 00:03:03,760
particular tend to have a lot of

75
00:03:07,350 --> 00:03:05,120
fireballs

76
00:03:09,750 --> 00:03:07,360
and so around the nights of the shower

77
00:03:12,309 --> 00:03:09,760
try taking your lawn chair your blanket

78
00:03:15,350 --> 00:03:12,319
to some wide open location if you can

79
00:03:17,750 --> 00:03:15,360
bask in the moon's bright light you may

80
00:03:20,390 --> 00:03:17,760
see that occasional fireball streak by

81
00:03:23,030 --> 00:03:20,400
and it will be beautiful that's what

82
00:03:25,270 --> 00:03:23,040
bruce mcclure says and he as usual

83
00:03:27,589 --> 00:03:25,280
provides a bottom line

84
00:03:31,190 --> 00:03:27,599
with the moon intruding on the pre-dawn

85
00:03:33,190 --> 00:03:31,200
hours this year 2017 is not as favorable

86
00:03:35,110 --> 00:03:33,200
as it could be for watching the annual

87
00:03:37,509 --> 00:03:35,120
perseid meteor shower

88
00:03:39,830 --> 00:03:37,519
hence the tips and if you're so inclined

89
00:03:41,670 --> 00:03:39,840
you can find the rest of them later read

90
00:03:44,830 --> 00:03:41,680
them for yourselves gentle listeners

91
00:03:47,509 --> 00:03:44,840
they'll be provided via link at

new horizons next target is starting to

96
00:04:00,710 --> 00:03:58,000
look a little weird

97
00:04:02,949 --> 00:04:00,720
in less than 17 months new horizons

98
00:04:05,990 --> 00:04:02,959

99
00:04:11,030 --> 00:04:06,000
pass of the ancient kuiper belt object

100
00:04:13,509 --> 00:04:11,040
kbo 2014 mu69 making what will be the

101
00:04:15,750 --> 00:04:13,519
most remote flyby in the history of

102
00:04:18,069 --> 00:04:15,760
robotic space exploration

103
00:04:20,069 --> 00:04:18,079
in preparation for the pass the team of

104
00:04:22,310 --> 00:04:20,079
scientists has completed an ambitious

105
00:04:25,909 --> 00:04:22,320
set of observations that have shed light

106
00:04:29,189 --> 00:04:25,919
on the possible shapes of this kbo

107
00:04:31,590 --> 00:04:29,199
kuiper belt object new horizons has had

108
00:04:34,870 --> 00:04:31,600
a pretty great career following its

109
00:04:37,270 --> 00:04:34,880
launch in 2006 and a subsequent gravity

110
00:04:39,749 --> 00:04:37,280
assist from king planet jupiter the

111
00:04:43,670 --> 00:04:39,759
plucky explorer flew past the dwarf

112
00:04:47,830 --> 00:04:43,680
planet pluto july 14 2015 harvesting

113
00:04:49,749 --> 00:04:47,840
over 50 gigabits of data in the process

114
00:04:51,909 --> 00:04:49,759
it took well over a year for new

115
00:04:53,990 --> 00:04:51,919
horizons to transmit that treasure trove

116
00:04:56,150 --> 00:04:54,000
of information back to earth which has

117
00:04:58,950 --> 00:04:56,160
since revolutionized our understanding

118
00:05:01,830 --> 00:04:58,960
of pluto revealing a diverse and active

119
00:05:03,990 --> 00:05:01,840
world riddled with exciting phenomena

120
00:05:06,070 --> 00:05:04,000
its work with pluto complete new

121
00:05:10,550 --> 00:05:06,080
horizons raced further into the kuiper

122
00:05:12,710 --> 00:05:10,560
belt toward its next target 2014 mu69

123
00:05:15,189 --> 00:05:12,720
a successful pass of that kuiper belt

124
00:05:17,189 --> 00:05:15,199
object will allow scientists to analyze

125
00:05:19,670 --> 00:05:17,199
data on a body that's remained largely

126
00:05:22,390 --> 00:05:19,680
unchanged since the birth of our solar

127
00:05:23,909 --> 00:05:22,400
system to prepare for the rendezvous a

128
00:05:27,749 --> 00:05:23,919
team of nasa scientists and

129
00:05:29,909 --> 00:05:27,759
collaborators have observed 2014 mu69 as

130
00:05:32,790 --> 00:05:29,919
it passed in front of three separate

131
00:05:35,830 --> 00:05:32,800
stars beginning june 3rd and again on

132
00:05:37,510 --> 00:05:35,840
the 10th of july and july 17th

133
00:05:40,070 --> 00:05:37,520
images collected during these

134
00:05:41,830 --> 00:05:40,080
occultations would allow new horizon

135
00:05:44,870 --> 00:05:41,840
handlers to better understand the shape

136
00:05:46,550 --> 00:05:44,880
of this kuiper belt object its orbit and

137
00:05:49,029 --> 00:05:46,560
its environment

138
00:05:51,590 --> 00:05:49,039
capturing an occultation event involving

139
00:05:54,710 --> 00:05:51,600
a small solar system object orbiting

140
00:05:56,150 --> 00:05:54,720
over 4 billion miles from earth is no

141
00:05:58,469 --> 00:05:56,160
small task

142
00:06:00,710 --> 00:05:58,479
unlike a lunar eclipse which blocks the

143
00:06:02,469 --> 00:06:00,720
sunslight across a vast swath of land

144
00:06:06,710 --> 00:06:02,479
for minutes at a time

145
00:06:09,270 --> 00:06:06,720
the shadow cast by 2014 mu69 falls on a

146
00:06:11,510 --> 00:06:09,280
tiny sliver of the earth for a duration

147
00:06:13,430 --> 00:06:11,520
of about two seconds

148
00:06:16,309 --> 00:06:13,440
the team used observations made by the

149
00:06:19,510 --> 00:06:16,319
nasa esa hubble space telescope and the

150
00:06:21,189 --> 00:06:19,520
esa's gaia mission to pinpoint exactly

151
00:06:23,590 --> 00:06:21,199
where the shadows cast by the kuiper

152
00:06:26,230 --> 00:06:23,600
belt object would fall they set up an

153
00:06:27,590 --> 00:06:26,240
army of mobile telescopes to image the

154
00:06:29,430 --> 00:06:27,600
transits

155
00:06:31,510 --> 00:06:29,440
an analysis of those images snapped

156
00:06:33,270 --> 00:06:31,520
during the stellar occultations has

157
00:06:36,790 --> 00:06:33,280
revealed a number of potential

158
00:06:39,029 --> 00:06:36,800
configurations for 2014 mu69

159
00:06:42,390 --> 00:06:39,039
this kuiper belt object could be shaped

160
00:06:44,870 --> 00:06:42,400
like quote an extreme prolate spheroid

161
00:06:47,909 --> 00:06:44,880
end quotes i think stretched out

163
00:06:53,350 --> 00:06:50,319
bodies that either orbit incredibly

164
00:06:55,430 --> 00:06:53,360
close to one another or wait for it are

165
00:06:57,590 --> 00:06:55,440
actually touching

166
00:07:00,390 --> 00:06:57,600
it could also look like a single body

167
00:07:03,990 --> 00:07:00,400
with a sizeable chunk removed

168
00:07:06,790 --> 00:07:04,000
the data also suggests that 2014 mu69 is

169
00:07:10,070 --> 00:07:06,800
no longer than 20 miles 30 kilometers in

170
00:07:14,469 --> 00:07:10,080
length or two bodies each roughly 9 to

171

12 miles 15 to 20 kilometers in diameter

172
00:07:21,510 --> 00:07:17,919
the discovery that 2014 mu69 is not a

173
00:07:23,350 --> 00:07:21,520
nice simple spherical kbo is reminiscent

174
00:07:25,830 --> 00:07:23,360
of the trials faced by the scientists

175
00:07:27,749 --> 00:07:25,840
with the rosetta file mission as they

176
00:07:31,589 --> 00:07:27,759

00:07:56,790 --> 00:07:54,240
quote the shape of mu69 is truly

187
00:07:59,670 --> 00:07:56,800
provocative and could mean another first

188
00:08:02,469 --> 00:07:59,680
for new horizons going to a binary

189
00:08:04,469 --> 00:08:02,479
object in the kuiper belt i could not be

190
00:08:07,350 --> 00:08:04,479
happier with the occultation results

191
00:08:09,990 --> 00:08:07,360
which promise a scientific bonanza for

192
00:08:13,029 --> 00:08:10,000
the flyby end quotes

193
00:08:15,510 --> 00:08:13,039
alan stern interestingly there's a comic

194
00:08:17,270 --> 00:08:15,520
strip that runs in the los angeles times

195
00:08:19,430 --> 00:08:17,280
we won't name it but they deal with

196
00:08:21,830 --> 00:08:19,440
space and the occasional ufo the

197
00:08:24,550 --> 00:08:21,840
occasional alien well they're dealing

198
00:08:27,270 --> 00:08:24,560
with alan stern now which gives us a

199
00:08:29,029 --> 00:08:27,280
giggle undoubtedly some new aspect of

200
00:08:30,950 --> 00:08:29,039
nasa outreach

201
00:08:33,509 --> 00:08:30,960
let's reach out for yet another

202
00:08:35,829 --> 00:08:33,519
wonderful column from cheryl costa she

203
00:08:37,350 --> 00:08:35,839
writes for the syracuse new times

204
00:08:41,269 --> 00:08:37,360
here's today's

205
00:08:43,190 --> 00:08:41,279
ufos belief versus knowledge

206
00:08:45,110 --> 00:08:43,200
she writes it in the first person that

207
00:08:46,949 --> 00:08:45,120
is how we read it

208
00:08:49,430 --> 00:08:46,959
over the four years of this blog's

209
00:08:51,750 --> 00:08:49,440
existence i've been asked repeatedly by

210
00:08:55,509 --> 00:08:51,760
fans and reporters whether or not i

211
00:08:57,750 --> 00:08:55,519
believe in ufos i am of the opinion that

212
00:09:00,389 --> 00:08:57,760
a person's outlook on ufos should not be

213
00:09:01,910 --> 00:09:00,399
put in the context of belief

214
00:09:04,949 --> 00:09:01,920
i think the whole thing comes down to

215
00:09:06,630 --> 00:09:04,959
belief versus knowledge

216
00:09:08,870 --> 00:09:06,640
in many societies we frequently

217
00:09:10,310 --> 00:09:08,880
associate belief with blind faith

218
00:09:11,910 --> 00:09:10,320
acceptance

219
00:09:13,829 --> 00:09:11,920
traditionally this sort of conviction

220
00:09:16,470 --> 00:09:13,839
usually falls into the category of

221
00:09:18,949 --> 00:09:16,480
dogmatic religious doctrine you either

222
00:09:19,990 --> 00:09:18,959
believe or accept the doctrine or you

223
00:09:22,310 --> 00:09:20,000
don't

224
00:09:24,310 --> 00:09:22,320
it seems that we as human beings have

225
00:09:26,230 --> 00:09:24,320
been conditioned to make character

226
00:09:28,550 --> 00:09:26,240
judgments about one religious faith or

227
00:09:30,870 --> 00:09:28,560
another follow our faith and you're a

228
00:09:33,509 --> 00:09:30,880
believer if you don't you're an outsider

229
00:09:35,829 --> 00:09:33,519
or even heretic many great wars have

230
00:09:37,829 --> 00:09:35,839
been fought over subtle interpretations

231
00:09:41,030 --> 00:09:37,839
of various doctrines

232
00:09:43,670 --> 00:09:41,040
with regard to ufos our society carries

233
00:09:45,910 --> 00:09:43,680
this same sort of view which labels or

234
00:09:47,990 --> 00:09:45,920
judges the character of those who state

235
00:09:49,350 --> 00:09:48,000
a position with respect to the existence

236
00:09:53,110 --> 00:09:49,360
of ufos

237
00:09:55,990 --> 00:09:53,120
i argue that ufos and off-worlders are

238
00:09:59,030 --> 00:09:56,000
not a matter of faith but rather a case

239
00:10:01,990 --> 00:09:59,040
of knowledge based on some criteria of

240
00:10:04,230 --> 00:10:02,000
confirmation case in point

241
00:10:05,750 --> 00:10:04,240
in four years of reading ufo reports

242
00:10:07,750 --> 00:10:05,760
i've been amazed at how many people

243
00:10:10,070 --> 00:10:07,760
state something like quote i never

244
00:10:13,269 --> 00:10:10,080
thought these things existed until what

245
00:10:15,590 --> 00:10:13,279
i saw tonight end quotes

246
00:10:18,310 --> 00:10:15,600
i assert that for the observer this is a

247
00:10:19,350 --> 00:10:18,320
knowledge-based confirmation and not

248
00:10:20,949 --> 00:10:19,360
faith

249
00:10:23,110 --> 00:10:20,959
i've known a lot of people who were on

250
00:10:25,670 --> 00:10:23,120
the fence with their skeptical view

251
00:10:29,190 --> 00:10:25,680
still others who are totally unconvinced

252
00:10:31,509 --> 00:10:29,200
and feel these ideas are total hogwash

253
00:10:33,350 --> 00:10:31,519
personally i tested my position on this

254
00:10:35,590 --> 00:10:33,360
subject many times since my first

255
00:10:37,350 --> 00:10:35,600
sighting when i was 12 years old

256
00:10:39,190 --> 00:10:37,360
i've read articles and books over the

257
00:10:41,430 --> 00:10:39,200
years that gave me knowledge of other

258
00:10:43,110 --> 00:10:41,440
people's sightings but i still had my

259
00:10:45,509 --> 00:10:43,120
own reservations

260
00:10:48,069 --> 00:10:45,519
for me it took a series of little

261
00:10:50,630 --> 00:10:48,079
validations over a period of 20 years in

262
00:10:53,030 --> 00:10:50,640
my adult life to bring about a serious

263
00:10:54,710 --> 00:10:53,040
resolve on the subject

264
00:10:56,550 --> 00:10:54,720
so what happens when something

265
00:10:58,790 --> 00:10:56,560
extraordinary occurs that defies

266
00:11:01,350 --> 00:10:58,800
rational explanation

267
00:11:04,150 --> 00:11:01,360
the result can go two ways either it

268
00:11:06,389 --> 00:11:04,160
confirms or reinforces for the observer

269
00:11:08,470 --> 00:11:06,399
that these things are real

270
00:11:11,269 --> 00:11:08,480
or depending on the intensity of the

271
00:11:14,470 --> 00:11:11,279
encounter event the observer's reality

272
00:11:16,870 --> 00:11:14,480
view is upset or even shattered

273
00:11:18,949 --> 00:11:16,880
of course the confirmation tipping point

274
00:11:21,670 --> 00:11:18,959
depends on the person and what they

275
00:11:24,150 --> 00:11:21,680
accept as personal proof for some folks

276
00:11:26,389 --> 00:11:24,160
a simple sighting works for others it

277
00:11:27,350 --> 00:11:26,399
has to be a really amazing sighting

278
00:11:30,069 --> 00:11:27,360
event

279
00:11:33,590 --> 00:11:30,079
for me it was several sets of long-term

280
00:11:35,590 --> 00:11:33,600
data and some technical observations

281
00:11:38,230 --> 00:11:35,600
then there are those who want physical

282
00:11:39,990 --> 00:11:38,240
evidence like an off-world craft landing

283
00:11:42,790 --> 00:11:40,000
on the white house lawn

284
00:11:44,790 --> 00:11:42,800
but i argue that even an off-world craft

285
00:11:47,430 --> 00:11:44,800
parked on the ellipse won't be enough

286
00:11:49,269 --> 00:11:47,440
confirmation for some and that's okay

287
00:11:51,269 --> 00:11:49,279
each person needs to measure what

288
00:11:53,110 --> 00:11:51,279
knowledge they require to make their own

289
00:11:55,190 --> 00:11:53,120
personal confirmation

290
00:11:57,030 --> 00:11:55,200
we like that point of view

291
00:11:59,910 --> 00:11:57,040
and we're going to segue something right

292
00:12:02,949 --> 00:11:59,920
about here headline new survey shows

293
00:12:04,150 --> 00:12:02,959
nearly half of americans believe in

nearly half of americans believe in

00:12:17,269 --> 00:12:14,880
aliens and almost as many believe aliens

299
00:12:18,389 --> 00:12:17,279
are visiting earth according to a new

survey

301

alien abduction and a bit less than that

00:12:28,470 --> 00:12:26,000

their promotional campaign for the

00:12:47,350 --> 00:12:44,560
they surveyed more than 1700 americans

312
00:12:50,150 --> 00:12:47,360
phoenix forgotten is a found footage

313
00:12:52,710 --> 00:12:50,160
it's a sci-fi thriller fiction yup set

314
00:12:56,710 --> 00:12:52,720
during a famous mass ufo sighting that

315
00:12:58,710 --> 00:12:56,720
phoenix arizona phoenix lights 1997

316
00:13:02,150 --> 00:12:58,720
quote the phoenix lights phenomena of

317
00:13:04,470 --> 00:13:02,160
march 13 1997 led us to introduce a

318
00:13:06,870 --> 00:13:04,480
survey to find out what americans

319
00:13:09,509 --> 00:13:06,880
believe about aliens end quotes those

320
00:13:11,430 --> 00:13:09,519
are the words of a rep from 20th century

321
00:13:13,750 --> 00:13:11,440
fox home entertainment

322
00:13:17,190 --> 00:13:13,760
he continued quote from our survey we

323
00:13:19,910 --> 00:13:17,200
found that nearly half 47 percent

324
00:13:22,150 --> 00:13:19,920
believe in aliens but less than a fifth

325
00:13:24,870 --> 00:13:22,160
think they've ever seen a ufo or an

326
00:13:26,470 --> 00:13:24,880
alien themselves end quotes

327
00:13:28,550 --> 00:13:26,480
other surveys have also found that

328
00:13:31,190 --> 00:13:28,560
around half the population believe in

329
00:13:33,750 --> 00:13:31,200
aliens but perhaps a more interesting

330
00:13:37,509 --> 00:13:33,760
finding in this survey was that slightly

331
00:13:40,949 --> 00:13:37,519
less than 39 of those surveyed quote

332
00:13:42,389 --> 00:13:40,959
believe aliens have visited earth before

333
00:13:43,829 --> 00:13:42,399
end quotes

334
00:13:46,629 --> 00:13:43,839
although many in that group believe

335
00:13:48,949 --> 00:13:46,639
aliens have visited earth less believe

336
00:13:51,350 --> 00:13:48,959
aliens are actually abducting people

337
00:13:53,509 --> 00:13:51,360
only 18 of the group said they believed

338
00:13:57,030 --> 00:13:53,519
in alien abduction

339
00:13:59,910 --> 00:13:57,040
as for ufos only 16.74

340
00:14:02,949 --> 00:13:59,920
claimed to have seen one however 27

341
00:14:04,870 --> 00:14:02,959
percent said they knew someone who had

342
00:14:07,750 --> 00:14:04,880
when it comes to the phoenix lights

343
00:14:09,590 --> 00:14:07,760
surprisingly 45.5

344
00:14:10,550 --> 00:14:09,600
of the people said they'd heard of the

345
00:14:12,790 --> 00:14:10,560
event

346
00:14:15,590 --> 00:14:12,800
alejandro rojas who writes this lives in

347
00:14:17,829 --> 00:14:15,600
arizona he says the topic is still hot

348
00:14:19,350 --> 00:14:17,839
in the news out there in fact he himself

349
00:14:21,189 --> 00:14:19,360
was part of several promotional

350
00:14:23,350 --> 00:14:21,199
interviews for phoenix forgotten in the

351
00:14:25,590 --> 00:14:23,360
local media and people still love

352
00:14:27,750 --> 00:14:25,600
talking about the incident especially

353
00:14:30,790 --> 00:14:27,760
the fact that then governor fife

354
00:14:34,150 --> 00:14:30,800
symington claims to have seen that ufo

355
00:14:36,629 --> 00:14:34,160
and believes it was an alien spacecraft

356
00:14:38,710 --> 00:14:36,639
so it wasn't too surprising to see 80 of

357
00:14:41,030 --> 00:14:38,720
the arizona survey participants had

358
00:14:43,189 --> 00:14:41,040
heard of the phoenix lights

359
00:14:47,110 --> 00:14:43,199
in fact says alejandra rojas he isn't

360
00:14:48,870 --> 00:14:47,120
sure how the other 20 have not heard

361
00:14:50,389 --> 00:14:48,880
the survey went on to ask whether people

362
00:14:52,230 --> 00:14:50,399
felt the phoenix lights could have been

363
00:14:54,790 --> 00:14:52,240
caused by aliens

364
00:14:56,949 --> 00:14:54,800
a whopping 67

365
00:14:59,269 --> 00:14:56,959
said yes

366
00:15:01,590 --> 00:14:59,279
phoenix forgotten the film portrays

367
00:15:03,910 --> 00:15:01,600
aliens as pretty scary what makes new

368
00:15:06,629 --> 00:15:03,920
simply summer z feminine wash different

369
00:15:08,470 --> 00:15:06,639
it's simple seriously that's the answer

370
00:15:10,230 --> 00:15:08,480
it's made with simple ingredients

371
00:15:12,230 --> 00:15:10,240
ingredients that help stop odor and help

372
00:15:14,310 --> 00:15:12,240
you maintain a naturally healthy ph

373
00:15:16,150 --> 00:15:14,320

374
00:15:19,030 --> 00:15:16,160
simply summer's eve ingredients do not

375
00:15:20,790 --> 00:15:19,040
include harsh chemicals dyes alcohol or

376
00:15:22,949 --> 00:15:20,800
parabens and it comes in light

377
00:15:25,590 --> 00:15:22,959
refreshing scents like mandarin blossom

378
00:15:27,670 --> 00:15:25,600
and coconut water new simply summer z

379
00:15:29,990 --> 00:15:27,680
gentle foaming wash and cleansing cloths

gentle by nature click the tile to learn

381
00:15:33,670 --> 00:15:31,519
more gary

382
00:15:35,509 --> 00:15:33,680
there's another found footage movie that

383
00:15:37,750 --> 00:15:35,519
premiered at the international ufo

384
00:15:40,069 --> 00:15:37,760
congress in phoenix it's titled the

385
00:15:42,310 --> 00:15:40,079
phoenix incident also based on the

386
00:15:45,670 --> 00:15:42,320
phoenix lights event and it portrayed

387
00:15:47,829 --> 00:15:45,680
aliens also as frightening monsters

388
00:15:49,749 --> 00:15:47,839
however these portrayals don't seem to

389
00:15:51,509 --> 00:15:49,759
have influenced everyone

390
00:15:54,550 --> 00:15:51,519
when asked if they felt aliens would

391
00:15:56,310 --> 00:15:54,560
have friendly or hostile intentions only

392
00:15:59,990 --> 00:15:56,320
nine percent were sure they would be

393
00:16:01,590 --> 00:16:00,000
hostile 25 believe aliens are friendly

394
00:16:04,629 --> 00:16:01,600
while 66

395
00:16:07,269 --> 00:16:04,639
say they are just not sure alejandro

396
00:16:10,069 --> 00:16:07,279
rojas provides wonderful graphs for this

397
00:16:11,990 --> 00:16:10,079
article but they're just not good radio

398
00:16:14,470 --> 00:16:12,000
so if you want to see them later and get

399
00:16:16,790 --> 00:16:14,480
all those calculations head on over to

400
00:16:18,470 --> 00:16:16,800
ufoheadlinenews.com

401
00:16:20,069 --> 00:16:18,480
they will be there

402
00:16:22,389 --> 00:16:20,079
when you check them you'll see that some

403
00:16:24,870 --> 00:16:22,399
of the questions on this survey in the

404
00:16:27,509 --> 00:16:24,880
graphs are a bit tongue-in-cheek and

405
00:16:29,350 --> 00:16:27,519
some asked obviously for fun but the

406
00:16:31,110 --> 00:16:29,360
survey does give some interesting

407
00:16:34,069 --> 00:16:31,120
insight into the general public's

408
00:16:36,710 --> 00:16:34,079
perception of the ufo phenomenon and the

409
00:16:39,269 --> 00:16:36,720
idea that aliens are visiting earth

410
00:16:42,870 --> 00:16:39,279
more and more people seem to be opening

411
00:16:45,350 --> 00:16:42,880
up to the idea of alien visitation

412
00:16:47,110 --> 00:16:45,360
should we be afraid

413
00:16:49,509 --> 00:16:47,120
if indeed the phoenix lights ufo

414
00:16:51,509 --> 00:16:49,519
sightings were caused by aliens no one

415
00:16:53,829 --> 00:16:51,519
was actually harmed

416
00:16:55,590 --> 00:16:53,839
recently actor kurt russell claims to

417
00:16:57,670 --> 00:16:55,600
have witnessed the unidentified lights

418
00:17:00,069 --> 00:16:57,680
from his personal aircraft as he was

419
00:17:02,629 --> 00:17:00,079
flying he and his son who was also on

420
00:17:03,670 --> 00:17:02,639
board obviously lived to tell their

421
00:17:05,270 --> 00:17:03,680
story

422
00:17:08,630 --> 00:17:05,280
so at least the aliens flying over

423
00:17:10,870 --> 00:17:08,640
phoenix in 1997 were benevolent

424
00:17:13,510 --> 00:17:10,880
alejandro rojas guesses they could also

425
00:17:15,270 --> 00:17:13,520
have been testing our defenses for some

426
00:17:17,110 --> 00:17:15,280
future invasion

427
00:17:19,750 --> 00:17:17,120
or could this have been a man-made

428
00:17:21,590 --> 00:17:19,760
object simply misidentified

429
00:17:24,309 --> 00:17:21,600
a pragmatic person would assume the

430
00:17:25,990 --> 00:17:24,319
later was the case as this is the most

431
00:17:28,230 --> 00:17:26,000
logical answer

432
00:17:31,190 --> 00:17:28,240
but alejandro rojas says quote

433
00:17:34,230 --> 00:17:31,200
personally i find it fascinating that so

434
00:17:38,029 --> 00:17:34,240
many people are open to the more exotic

435
00:17:40,549 --> 00:17:38,039
possibilities let's head immediately to

436
00:17:43,669 --> 00:17:40,559
ufostalker.com for this sighting in

437
00:17:46,549 --> 00:17:43,679
newcastle upon tyne england it's mufon

438
00:17:48,470 --> 00:17:46,559
case number 85723

439
00:17:50,789 --> 00:17:48,480
this event took place on the 7th of

440
00:17:53,110 --> 00:17:50,799
august this year and got a same-day

441
00:17:54,549 --> 00:17:53,120
report here's what our witness offers by

442
00:17:58,310 --> 00:17:54,559
way of summary

443
00:18:02,070 --> 00:17:58,320
saw oval or egg-shaped black dot moving

444
00:18:04,230 --> 00:18:02,080
same speed as airplane near airport

445
00:18:05,909 --> 00:18:04,240
there are photos that accompany this if

446
00:18:09,830 --> 00:18:05,919
you'd like to check those out you can

447
00:18:11,990 --> 00:18:09,840
find them later at ufoheadlinenews.com

448
00:18:14,789 --> 00:18:12,000
citing specifics give us a viewing

449
00:18:17,669 --> 00:18:14,799
distance in this case of over one mile

450
00:18:19,350 --> 00:18:17,679
the altitude was over 500 feet and there

451
00:18:21,430 --> 00:18:19,360
was cloud cover

452
00:18:23,669 --> 00:18:21,440
the sighting duration was two minutes

453
00:18:26,470 --> 00:18:23,679
object features unknown

454
00:18:28,630 --> 00:18:26,480
object flight path straight line path

455
00:18:31,909 --> 00:18:28,640
and as we heard this object was shaped

456
00:18:34,150 --> 00:18:31,919
like an egg or an oval and we'll simply

457
00:18:36,390 --> 00:18:34,160
have to weather the weather or whatever

458
00:18:37,830 --> 00:18:36,400
because there isn't any listed here's

459
00:18:39,110 --> 00:18:37,840
the account

460
00:18:42,230 --> 00:18:39,120
i was on the phone in one of the

461
00:18:46,470 --> 00:18:42,240
bedrooms in my house when i saw a black

462
00:18:49,430 --> 00:18:46,480
egg or oval-shaped dot in the distance

463
00:18:51,669 --> 00:18:49,440
although not necessarily nearby

464
00:18:54,230 --> 00:18:51,679
there was an airplane directly below

465
00:18:56,710 --> 00:18:54,240
this object i saw this object out of the

466
00:18:58,870 --> 00:18:56,720
corner of my eye i wasn't looking for

467
00:19:01,590 --> 00:18:58,880
anything in the sky at all

468
00:19:03,830 --> 00:19:01,600
when i first noticed this object i

469
00:19:05,029 --> 00:19:03,840
assumed it was a drone because of its

470
00:19:07,430 --> 00:19:05,039
movements

471
00:19:09,909 --> 00:19:07,440
however this object was cited near the

472
00:19:11,830 --> 00:19:09,919
local airport thus making drone use

473
00:19:14,310 --> 00:19:11,840
illegal in this area

474
00:19:16,310 --> 00:19:14,320
and the object was far away but i could

475
00:19:17,750 --> 00:19:16,320
still see it clearly and drones are

476
00:19:20,549 --> 00:19:17,760
small

477
00:19:22,630 --> 00:19:20,559
the object was egg oval shaped and it

478
00:19:26,390 --> 00:19:22,640
was going as fast as an airplane during

479
00:19:29,110 --> 00:19:26,400
a landing its movements were robotic

480
00:19:31,270 --> 00:19:29,120
it didn't move diagonally at all

481
00:19:33,270 --> 00:19:31,280
during the sighting i called my brother

482
00:19:35,270 --> 00:19:33,280
and he was skeptical at first and

483
00:19:36,950 --> 00:19:35,280
dismissed it as a drone but when i

484
00:19:39,990 --> 00:19:36,960
explained to him that this was in

485
00:19:42,549 --> 00:19:40,000
restricted airspace for drones he then

486
00:19:43,669 --> 00:19:42,559
began to consider the legitimacy of this

487
00:19:49,510 --> 00:19:43,679
object

488
00:19:50,710 --> 00:19:49,520
then but just before it did that i got a

489
00:19:53,350 --> 00:19:50,720
picture

490
00:19:55,190 --> 00:19:53,360
uh photographic evidence and do you know

491
00:19:56,230 --> 00:19:55,200
where to see that evidence gentle

492
00:19:59,590 --> 00:19:56,240
listeners

493
00:20:02,710 --> 00:19:59,600
let's jet across a lot of water now and

494
00:20:05,990 --> 00:20:02,720
come to steinbach manitoba canada

495
00:20:08,710 --> 00:20:06,000
that's where mufon case number 85573

496
00:20:12,150 --> 00:20:08,720
took place the date of the sighting 8 1

497
00:20:13,590 --> 00:20:12,160
2017 it got a next day report

498
00:20:17,510 --> 00:20:13,600
here's the summary

499
00:20:19,029 --> 00:20:17,520
round hazy ball of light in clear night

500
00:20:21,029 --> 00:20:19,039
sky

501
00:20:25,029 --> 00:20:21,039
citing specifics viewing distance

502
00:20:27,190 --> 00:20:25,039
unknown altitude likewise unknown citing

503
00:20:29,350 --> 00:20:27,200
duration 5 minutes

504
00:20:32,230 --> 00:20:29,360
object features none

505
00:20:34,789 --> 00:20:32,240
the flight path straight line path and

506
00:20:37,590 --> 00:20:34,799
this object was shaped like a disk

507
00:20:39,270 --> 00:20:37,600
let's hear how our witness puts it

508
00:20:42,710 --> 00:20:39,280
walking the dogs

509
00:20:44,789 --> 00:20:42,720
was super obvious i just looked up

510
00:20:46,390 --> 00:20:44,799
i thought this object was not supposed

511
00:20:49,990 --> 00:20:46,400
to be up there

512
00:20:52,710 --> 00:20:50,000
i just looked up and saw a large round

513
00:20:54,950 --> 00:20:52,720
hazy white light going north this light

514
00:20:56,630 --> 00:20:54,960
was brighter in the middle diffused

515
00:21:00,310 --> 00:20:56,640
light near the edges

516
00:21:02,630 --> 00:21:00,320
it was perfectly round hazy but in a

517
00:21:04,470 --> 00:21:02,640
clear sky there were no clouds

518
00:21:07,750 --> 00:21:04,480
the speed was approximately the same as

519
00:21:09,990 --> 00:21:07,760
a satellite and there was no sound

520
00:21:11,350 --> 00:21:10,000
this thing didn't waver in speed or

521
00:21:14,630 --> 00:21:11,360
direction

522
00:21:18,070 --> 00:21:14,640
my reaction total surprise it didn't

523
00:21:21,430 --> 00:21:18,080
belong up there for some reason i hid

524
00:21:23,029 --> 00:21:21,440
behind a bus and an rv

525
00:21:25,830 --> 00:21:23,039
it made its way north till i couldn't

526
00:21:28,470 --> 00:21:25,840
see it anymore this took several minutes

527
00:21:30,950 --> 00:21:28,480
i could see two airliners to the west

528
00:21:33,190 --> 00:21:30,960
both totally clear i could see their

529
00:21:34,870 --> 00:21:33,200
exhaust trails strobe lights i could

530
00:21:37,990 --> 00:21:34,880
hear jet noise

531
00:21:41,190 --> 00:21:38,000
i could see all the stars clear as sharp

532
00:21:43,750 --> 00:21:41,200
pins of light the moon was bright

533
00:21:46,390 --> 00:21:43,760
the sky was clear and i also saw a

534
00:21:48,630 --> 00:21:46,400
shooting star about two minutes after in

535
00:21:49,750 --> 00:21:48,640
the same region that was clear as could

536
00:21:54,470 --> 00:21:49,760
be

537
00:21:56,390 --> 00:21:54,480
type i'm a science guy

538
00:21:59,110 --> 00:21:56,400
not sure why i'm even filling this

539
00:22:01,510 --> 00:21:59,120
report out usually i can explain

540
00:22:02,549 --> 00:22:01,520
everything i see or i can look it up on

541
00:22:05,350 --> 00:22:02,559
the web

542
00:22:06,390 --> 00:22:05,360
but i'm not sure what to look up in this

543
00:22:10,950 --> 00:22:06,400
case

544
00:22:14,549 --> 00:22:10,960
i don't recall ever being baffled before

545
00:22:16,950 --> 00:22:14,559
yikes we're hearing life-changing event

546
00:22:19,909 --> 00:22:16,960
for this witness cool

547
00:22:21,990 --> 00:22:19,919
still in the very northerly region let's

548
00:22:24,630 --> 00:22:22,000
go to yellowknife in the northwest

549
00:22:25,789 --> 00:22:24,640
territories in canada that's where mufon

550
00:22:27,990 --> 00:22:25,799
case number

551
00:22:31,029 --> 00:22:28,000
85720 took place

552
00:22:34,070 --> 00:22:31,039
this happened back in april on the 18th

553
00:22:36,789 --> 00:22:34,080
of april 2017 but for some reason the

554
00:22:38,630 --> 00:22:36,799
witness just reported it on the 7th of

555
00:22:41,990 --> 00:22:38,640
august this year

556
00:22:44,310 --> 00:22:42,000
summary two lights flying in formation

557
00:22:45,750 --> 00:22:44,320
and then in a straight line before

558
00:22:48,230 --> 00:22:45,760
