00:00:08,470 --> 00:00:05,920
hello it's friday september 22nd 2017.

3
00:00:11,110 --> 00:00:08,480
you are listening to inception radio

4
00:00:13,910 --> 00:00:11,120
network voice of the fringe majority

5
00:00:15,669 --> 00:00:13,920
this is carol carl with ufo headline

6
00:00:18,470 --> 00:00:15,679
news

7
00:00:21,109 --> 00:00:18,480
happy autumnal equinox everybody yup

8
00:00:24,070 --> 00:00:21,119
it's today depending upon when you hear

9
00:00:27,990 --> 00:00:24,080
this it might already have happened the

10
00:00:29,589 --> 00:00:28,000
official time twenty zero two utc and of

11
00:00:32,870 --> 00:00:29,599
course that's a different configuration

12
00:00:35,750 --> 00:00:32,880
for your individual time zone and as you

13
00:00:38,150 --> 00:00:35,760
hear this the due east equinox sunrise

14
00:00:39,990 --> 00:00:38,160
might already have happened for you but

15
00:00:43,270 --> 00:00:40,000
maybe it's not too late for you to catch

16
00:00:45,590 --> 00:00:43,280
the due west equinox sunset

17
00:00:48,630 --> 00:00:45,600
it's often said at each equinox or

18
00:00:51,670 --> 00:00:48,640
equinox if you prefer the sun rises due

19
00:00:54,630 --> 00:00:51,680
east and sets due west and that is true

20
00:00:57,830 --> 00:00:54,640
no matter where you are on planet earth

21
00:01:00,709 --> 00:00:57,840
but why is that and another question how

22
00:01:02,229 --> 00:01:00,719
can we visualize that how can we use our

23
00:01:04,070 --> 00:01:02,239
mind's eye

24
00:01:05,830 --> 00:01:04,080
bruce mcclure who writes this article

25
00:01:08,310 --> 00:01:05,840
for earthsky.org

26
00:01:10,390 --> 00:01:08,320
gives us lots of information coming up

27
00:01:13,350 --> 00:01:10,400
and this is the part where we remind you

28
00:01:15,750 --> 00:01:13,360
no tests here just information for your

29
00:01:17,749 --> 00:01:15,760
entertainment and enjoyment

30
00:01:20,469 --> 00:01:17,759
so first you need to know this an

31
00:01:23,030 --> 00:01:20,479
equinox occurs when the sun crosses the

32
00:01:25,270 --> 00:01:23,040
celestial equator no matter where you

33
00:01:28,789 --> 00:01:25,280
are the celestial equator intersects

34
00:01:30,870 --> 00:01:28,799
your horizon at due east and due west

35
00:01:33,830 --> 00:01:30,880
at its highest point in your sky the

36
00:01:36,230 --> 00:01:33,840
celestial equator appears high or low

37
00:01:39,270 --> 00:01:36,240
and that depends on your latitude

38
00:01:42,630 --> 00:01:39,280
the imaginary celestial equator is a

39
00:01:45,670 --> 00:01:42,640
great circle dividing the also imaginary

40
00:01:48,550 --> 00:01:45,680
celestial sphere into its northern and

41
00:01:51,109 --> 00:01:48,560
southern hemispheres so from the equator

42
00:01:53,190 --> 00:01:51,119
it's directly overhead for example

43
00:01:54,389 --> 00:01:53,200
wrapping the sky directly above earth's

44
00:01:55,990 --> 00:01:54,399
equator

45
00:01:58,230 --> 00:01:56,000
for the purposes of today's

46
00:01:59,910 --> 00:01:58,240
visualization though the height of the

47
00:02:00,950 --> 00:01:59,920
celestial equator in your sky doesn't

48
00:02:07,109 --> 00:02:00,960
matter

49
00:02:08,710 --> 00:02:07,119
one the sun is on the celestial equator

50
00:02:10,949 --> 00:02:08,720
at the equinox

51
00:02:13,750 --> 00:02:10,959
thing two the celestial equator

52
00:02:15,830 --> 00:02:13,760
intersects your horizon at points due

53
00:02:18,790 --> 00:02:15,840
east and due west

54
00:02:22,070 --> 00:02:18,800
voila the sun rises due east and sets

55
00:02:24,309 --> 00:02:22,080
due west on the day of the equinox as

56
00:02:25,910 --> 00:02:24,319
seen from around the globe

57
00:02:27,910 --> 00:02:25,920
where does the celestial equator

58
00:02:29,910 --> 00:02:27,920
intersect your horizon

59
00:02:32,790 --> 00:02:29,920
well bruce mcclure says no matter where

60
00:02:35,030 --> 00:02:32,800
you are on earth unless you happen to be

61
00:02:37,270 --> 00:02:35,040
hearing this broadcast from one of the

62
00:02:41,270 --> 00:02:37,280
poles the celestial equator meets your

63
00:02:42,790 --> 00:02:41,280
horizon at points due east and due west

64
00:02:45,110 --> 00:02:42,800
next question

65
00:02:48,869 --> 00:02:45,120
why is it that the sun rises due east

66
00:02:50,949 --> 00:02:48,879
and sets due west at the equinoxes well

67
00:02:53,190 --> 00:02:50,959
this is a situation where it's just bad

68
00:02:55,750 --> 00:02:53,200
radio for us to try to describe the

69
00:02:57,910 --> 00:02:55,760
above graphic that's in this article

70
00:03:00,550 --> 00:02:57,920
it's a collection of blue lines on the

71
00:03:02,949 --> 00:03:00,560
celestial equator and purple lines that

72
00:03:05,190 --> 00:03:02,959
show you the what's what we'll just say

73
00:03:07,350 --> 00:03:05,200
in this case one picture is worth a

74
00:03:09,910 --> 00:03:07,360
thousand words and it shows you the

75
00:03:12,949 --> 00:03:09,920
ecliptic which kind of is part of this

76
00:03:15,270 --> 00:03:12,959
entire concept at the equinox just

77
00:03:16,630 --> 00:03:15,280
suffice it to say the two lines

78
00:03:19,430 --> 00:03:16,640
intersect

79
00:03:21,990 --> 00:03:19,440
here comes another fact the sun rising

80
00:03:24,630 --> 00:03:22,000
and setting today due east and due west

81
00:03:27,750 --> 00:03:24,640
well at every equinox makes it a great

82
00:03:29,990 --> 00:03:27,760
day for finding dew east exactly and

83
00:03:32,309 --> 00:03:30,000
deal west from your yard or your

84
00:03:35,589 --> 00:03:32,319
favorite vantage point for watching the

85
00:03:38,630 --> 00:03:35,599
sky just go outside around sunset or

86
00:03:40,949 --> 00:03:38,640
sunrise and notice the location of the

87
00:03:43,670 --> 00:03:40,959
sun on the horizon with respect to

88
00:03:45,830 --> 00:03:43,680
familiar landmarks if you do this you'll

89
00:03:47,830 --> 00:03:45,840
be able to use those landmarks to find

90
00:03:50,949 --> 00:03:47,840
the cardinal directions in the weeks and

91
00:03:53,509 --> 00:03:50,959
months ahead long after earth has moved

92
00:03:56,309 --> 00:03:53,519
on in its orbit around the sun carrying

93
00:03:59,350 --> 00:03:56,319
the sunrise and sunset points southward

94
00:04:00,630 --> 00:03:59,360
or northward and here's a cool fact

95
00:04:03,429 --> 00:04:00,640
there is something known as an

96
00:04:05,270 --> 00:04:03,439
equatorial ring it was used in ancient

97
00:04:09,030 --> 00:04:05,280
times in an attempt to determine the

98
00:04:11,350 --> 00:04:09,040
equinoxes the ring plane is set parallel

99
00:04:13,750 --> 00:04:11,360
to the plane of the earth's equator if

100
00:04:16,069 --> 00:04:13,760
the equinox happened during the daylight

101
00:04:19,270 --> 00:04:16,079
hours the inside of that ring was

102
00:04:21,909 --> 00:04:19,280
expected to be completely in shade at

103
00:04:24,070 --> 00:04:21,919
the equinox there's an image with this

104
00:04:26,469 --> 00:04:24,080
article it's really worth checking out

105
00:04:28,790 --> 00:04:26,479
and to do that simply head over to ufo

106
00:04:30,790 --> 00:04:28,800
ufoheadlinenews.com

107
00:04:34,629 --> 00:04:30,800
so here's the bottom line

108
00:04:39,030 --> 00:04:34,639
the 2017 september equinox comes today

109
00:04:41,909 --> 00:04:39,040
september 22nd at 2002 utc

110
00:04:43,510 --> 00:04:41,919
at equinox the sun rises due east and

111
00:04:45,430 --> 00:04:43,520
sets due west

112
00:04:48,950 --> 00:04:45,440
now let's segue from the autumnal

113
00:04:51,990 --> 00:04:48,960
equinox to well the autumnal equinox we

114
00:04:55,030 --> 00:04:52,000
found seven things to know on the first

115
00:04:57,710 --> 00:04:55,040
day of fall this gets a byline for len

news

119
00:05:06,629 --> 00:05:03,680
the autumn equinox otherwise known as

120
00:05:10,150 --> 00:05:06,639
the first day of fall arrives friday

121
00:05:12,710 --> 00:05:10,160
september 22nd 2017 in the earth's

122
00:05:14,310 --> 00:05:12,720
northern hemisphere the transition marks

123
00:05:16,950 --> 00:05:14,320
the time when the sun will be shining

124
00:05:19,990 --> 00:05:16,960
directly on the earth's equator bringing

125
00:05:22,790 --> 00:05:20,000
equal amounts of daylight and darkness

126
00:05:26,310 --> 00:05:22,800
here come those seven things to know

127
00:05:29,110 --> 00:05:26,320
about this fall equinox number one when

128
00:05:30,469 --> 00:05:29,120
is the autumn equinox well we just

129
00:05:33,110 --> 00:05:30,479
talked about that but here's a little

130
00:05:36,310 --> 00:05:33,120
bit more fall will officially arrive at

131
00:05:38,790 --> 00:05:36,320
402 pm friday on the east coast of the

132
00:05:40,550 --> 00:05:38,800
united states though that will mark the

133
00:05:42,629 --> 00:05:40,560
official end of summer

134
00:05:44,790 --> 00:05:42,639
temperatures in the state of new jersey

135
00:05:48,310 --> 00:05:44,800
today are expected to climb into the

136
00:05:49,990 --> 00:05:48,320
summer like 80s under partly sunny skies

137
00:05:52,950 --> 00:05:50,000
temperatures could warm this weekend

138
00:05:55,510 --> 00:05:52,960
into the mid to upper 80s so it won't

139
00:05:56,629 --> 00:05:55,520
feel much like autumn if you're in new

140
00:06:00,070 --> 00:05:56,639
jersey

141
00:06:01,350 --> 00:06:00,080
which is correct fall autumn or autumnal

142
00:06:03,029 --> 00:06:01,360
equinox

143
00:06:05,990 --> 00:06:03,039
and this article says all three are

144
00:06:08,390 --> 00:06:06,000
commonly used and acceptable to refer to

145
00:06:11,510 --> 00:06:08,400
the first day of fall it's sometimes

146
00:06:13,830 --> 00:06:11,520
also called the september equinox

147
00:06:16,710 --> 00:06:13,840
what does equinox mean

148
00:06:20,950 --> 00:06:16,720
well the word equinox was formed by two

149
00:06:23,830 --> 00:06:20,960
latin words equi or equi or equa

150
00:06:26,390 --> 00:06:23,840
apologies here to my dear latin teacher

151
00:06:29,270 --> 00:06:26,400
mildred tenhave that's the latin prefix

152
00:06:31,110 --> 00:06:29,280
for equal and the nox well that's the

153
00:06:32,870 --> 00:06:31,120
latin word for night

154
00:06:34,870 --> 00:06:32,880
the equal refers to the fact that the

155
00:06:37,029 --> 00:06:34,880
amount of daylight and darkness on this

156
00:06:38,870 --> 00:06:37,039
day are nearly equal

157
00:06:41,510 --> 00:06:38,880
and there are technical reasons it's not

158
00:06:42,950 --> 00:06:41,520
exactly equal there's a link if you want

159
00:06:45,430 --> 00:06:42,960
to know more

160
00:06:47,350 --> 00:06:45,440
what about the southern hemisphere the

161
00:06:49,590 --> 00:06:47,360
fall equinox only arrives on friday

162
00:06:51,990 --> 00:06:49,600
september 22nd for the northern

163
00:06:54,710 --> 00:06:52,000
hemisphere of the earth in the southern

164
00:06:57,590 --> 00:06:54,720
hemisphere well down there you're

165
00:06:59,830 --> 00:06:57,600
celebrating the vernal or the spring

166
00:07:02,870 --> 00:06:59,840
equinox equinox

167
00:07:04,950 --> 00:07:02,880
how is the autumnal equinox celebrated

168
00:07:07,510 --> 00:07:04,960
in some cultures the start of autumn is

169
00:07:09,830 --> 00:07:07,520
celebrated by feasting on the summer's

170
00:07:11,510 --> 00:07:09,840
harvest and making preparations for that

171
00:07:13,350 --> 00:07:11,520
winter to come

172
00:07:15,830 --> 00:07:13,360
in other cultures it's a time to

173
00:07:18,230 --> 00:07:15,840
remember and honor the dead

174
00:07:20,230 --> 00:07:18,240
by visiting cleaning and decorating

175
00:07:21,909 --> 00:07:20,240
their graves end quotes and there's a

176
00:07:23,270 --> 00:07:21,919
link as well if you want to know more

177
00:07:26,230 --> 00:07:23,280
about that

178
00:07:28,710 --> 00:07:26,240
when is fallback or the end of daylight

179
00:07:31,189 --> 00:07:28,720
saving time well daylight saving time

180
00:07:34,070 --> 00:07:31,199
does not correspond to the autumnal

181
00:07:36,870 --> 00:07:34,080
equinox daylight saving time began march

182
00:07:37,909 --> 00:07:36,880
12th and ends sunday november 5th this

183
00:07:39,189 --> 00:07:37,919
year

184
00:07:41,350 --> 00:07:39,199
there's that cool thing about

185
00:07:44,790 --> 00:07:41,360
remembering how to set your clocks

186
00:07:47,430 --> 00:07:44,800
spring forward fall back

187
00:07:49,270 --> 00:07:47,440
and last but not least is the autumnal

188
00:07:51,990 --> 00:07:49,280
equinox significant for weather

189
00:07:52,950 --> 00:07:52,000
forecasters the answer to that is not

190
00:07:55,430 --> 00:07:52,960
really

191
00:07:56,950 --> 00:07:55,440
meteorologists don't follow astronomical

192
00:07:59,909 --> 00:07:56,960
seasons and they don't consider

193
00:08:01,830 --> 00:07:59,919
september 22nd the start of fall

194
00:08:04,150 --> 00:08:01,840
weather folks consider the first day of

195
00:08:06,550 --> 00:08:04,160
autumn to be september 1st

196
00:08:08,950 --> 00:08:06,560
for them december 1st marks the first

197
00:08:11,270 --> 00:08:08,960
day of winter the first day of spring

198
00:08:12,469 --> 00:08:11,280
march 1st and the first day of summer

199
00:08:14,430 --> 00:08:12,479
june 1st

200
00:08:16,710 --> 00:08:14,440
each of these seasons are known as

201
00:08:19,029 --> 00:08:16,720
meteorological seasons and they run

202
00:08:21,270 --> 00:08:19,039
three full months and are based on the

203
00:08:23,589 --> 00:08:21,280
annual temperature cycle instead of the

204
00:08:25,749 --> 00:08:23,599
earth's rotation around the sun

205
00:08:28,550 --> 00:08:25,759
there's a great chart of detailed

206
00:08:31,029 --> 00:08:28,560
explanation put together by the national

207
00:08:33,589 --> 00:08:31,039
oceanic and atmospheric administration

208
00:08:37,029 --> 00:08:33,599
what we call noaa you can check that out

209
00:08:39,269 --> 00:08:37,039
later at ufoheadlinenews.com

210
00:08:42,389 --> 00:08:39,279
already then who wants to know about a

211
00:08:45,750 --> 00:08:42,399
strange new object just spotted in space

212
00:08:48,070 --> 00:08:45,760
well if that describes you then here we

213
00:08:49,670 --> 00:08:48,080
go we grabbed this headline from

214
00:08:52,630 --> 00:08:49,680
newatlas.com

215
00:08:55,269 --> 00:08:52,640
it gets a byline for michael irving

216
00:08:58,470 --> 00:08:55,279
astronomers have discovered a brand new

217
00:09:01,269 --> 00:08:58,480
type of object in our solar system an

218
00:09:06,070 --> 00:09:01,279
active binary asteroid

219
00:09:08,949 --> 00:09:06,080
that means this object named body 288p

220
00:09:11,829 --> 00:09:08,959
is the first known hybrid of two rare

221
00:09:14,790 --> 00:09:11,839
types of asteroid a binary that's made

222
00:09:17,269 --> 00:09:14,800
up of two rocks orbiting each other and

223
00:09:20,150 --> 00:09:17,279
an active asteroid that acts more like a

224
00:09:21,269 --> 00:09:20,160
comet leaving a trail of gas and dust in

225
00:09:23,750 --> 00:09:21,279
its wake

226
00:09:25,750 --> 00:09:23,760
traditionally the line between asteroids

227
00:09:28,470 --> 00:09:25,760
and comets was fairly clear

228
00:09:30,790 --> 00:09:28,480
asteroids are chunks of rock and metal

229
00:09:32,710 --> 00:09:30,800
while comets are icier causing them to

230
00:09:33,750 --> 00:09:32,720
leave a vapor trail when the sun heats

231
00:09:36,070 --> 00:09:33,760
them up

232
00:09:38,470 --> 00:09:36,080
but the more we study these objects the

233
00:09:40,949 --> 00:09:38,480
more that line blurs

234
00:09:43,110 --> 00:09:40,959
active asteroids kick up clouds of dust

235
00:09:46,389 --> 00:09:43,120
and gas giving them the appearance of

236
00:09:49,269 --> 00:09:46,399
comets but these are rare with currently

237
00:09:51,269 --> 00:09:49,279
only about 20 known examples

238
00:09:53,509 --> 00:09:51,279
when they orbit within the asteroid belt

239
00:09:57,870 --> 00:09:53,519
that lies between mars and jupiter these

240
00:10:01,430 --> 00:09:57,880
objects are called main belt comets

241
00:10:03,590 --> 00:10:01,440
body288p was discovered in 2011 and

242
00:10:06,550 --> 00:10:03,600
images captured by the hubble telescope

243
00:10:08,630 --> 00:10:06,560
back then indicated that it was active

244
00:10:10,870 --> 00:10:08,640
but at that time the asteroid was too

245
00:10:13,509 --> 00:10:10,880
far from earth to get a good look in

246
00:10:15,910 --> 00:10:13,519
september of 2016 the asteroid was on

247
00:10:17,990 --> 00:10:15,920
its closest approach to the sun

248
00:10:20,790 --> 00:10:18,000
and as it passed within 200 million

249
00:10:23,430 --> 00:10:20,800
kilometers of earth astronomers from the

250
00:10:26,790 --> 00:10:23,440
max planck institute used hubble to peer

251
00:10:29,030 --> 00:10:26,800
closer and that's when it became clear

252
00:10:30,790 --> 00:10:29,040
this was made up of not one but two

253
00:10:34,230 --> 00:10:30,800
separate pieces

254
00:10:36,310 --> 00:10:34,240
that makes 288p the first binary main

255
00:10:38,470 --> 00:10:36,320
belt comet

256
00:10:41,190 --> 00:10:38,480
there are observations that reveal some

257
00:10:43,509 --> 00:10:41,200
of 288p's many quirks

258
00:10:46,150 --> 00:10:43,519
most binary asteroids are made up of one

259
00:10:46,790 --> 00:10:46,160
larger body with a smaller moon orbiting

260
00:10:48,949 --> 00:10:46,800
it

261
00:10:51,590 --> 00:10:48,959
but two eight eight piece pieces are

262
00:10:55,910 --> 00:10:51,600
roughly the same size each measuring

263
00:10:57,509 --> 00:10:55,920
about one kilometer or 0.62 miles wide

264
00:10:59,509 --> 00:10:57,519
and they're much further apart than

265
00:11:02,790 --> 00:10:59,519
usual orbiting each other at a distance

266
00:11:04,870 --> 00:11:02,800
of about 100 kilometers 62 miles

267
00:11:07,750 --> 00:11:04,880
according to the max planck institute

268
00:11:09,990 --> 00:11:07,760
astronomers rapid rotation may have

269
00:11:12,150 --> 00:11:10,000
caused 288p to break up in the first

270
00:11:14,790 --> 00:11:12,160
place but the fact that the object is

271
00:11:16,630 --> 00:11:14,800
still active suggests that this would be

272
00:11:19,990 --> 00:11:16,640
a relatively recent development

273
00:11:21,430 --> 00:11:20,000
occurring relatively recently 5 000

274
00:11:24,230 --> 00:11:21,440
years ago

275
00:11:26,790 --> 00:11:24,240
then the gas as it spews likely drove

276
00:11:29,030 --> 00:11:26,800
the two pieces apart into their current

277
00:11:31,350 --> 00:11:29,040
distant orbit here's a quote from

278
00:11:35,750 --> 00:11:31,360
jessica arwald she's the main author of

279
00:11:37,910 --> 00:11:35,760
this study quote 288ps activity probably

280
00:11:40,550 --> 00:11:37,920
played a decisive role in its further

281
00:11:44,230 --> 00:11:40,560
evolution the most probable formation

282
00:11:46,870 --> 00:11:44,240
scenario of 288p is a breakup due to

283
00:11:48,630 --> 00:11:46,880
fast rotation after that the two

284
00:11:52,630 --> 00:11:48,640
fragments may have been moved further

285
00:11:54,310 --> 00:11:52,640
apart by sublimation torques end quotes

286
00:11:57,509 --> 00:11:54,320
gentle listeners we tried to find

287
00:11:59,590 --> 00:11:57,519
something to explain sublimation torques

288
00:12:01,430 --> 00:11:59,600
gentle listeners we tried to find

289
00:12:04,630 --> 00:12:01,440
something to do with sublimation forks

290
00:12:07,509 --> 00:12:04,640
online gotta do another google search it

291
00:12:09,910 --> 00:12:07,519
was greek to us shall we say

292
00:12:11,910 --> 00:12:09,920
but the article finishes with among the

293
00:12:13,710 --> 00:12:11,920
many thousands of pieces of debris

294
00:12:17,829 --> 00:12:13,720
floating around out there

295
00:12:19,829 --> 00:12:17,839
body288p is a completely unique object

296
00:12:22,550 --> 00:12:19,839
further study is required to figure out

297
00:12:25,190 --> 00:12:22,560
how common binary main belt comets might

298
00:12:27,990 --> 00:12:25,200
be and what clues they can reveal about

299
00:12:29,750 --> 00:12:28,000
the origins of our solar system

300
00:12:34,310 --> 00:12:29,760
there's a video that accompanies this

301
00:12:35,750 --> 00:12:34,320
article it shows action on 288p

302
00:12:38,550 --> 00:12:35,760
you can check that out later at

speaking of things to check out later

305
00:12:45,990 --> 00:12:42,720
the weekend's coming up and we're going

00:12:48,790 --> 00:12:46,000
off the beaten path once again we've got

307
00:12:52,710 --> 00:12:48,800
stories from a sighting that involves

308
00:12:55,190 --> 00:12:52,720
yes a scooby-doo umbrella it's hilarious

309
00:12:56,949 --> 00:12:55,200
and scary at the same time we've got

310
00:12:59,590 --> 00:12:56,959
updates on more of those amazing

311
00:13:02,629 --> 00:12:59,600
kryptoid stories brought to us by

312
00:13:05,430 --> 00:13:02,639
phantoms and monsters and lon strickler

313
00:13:07,829 --> 00:13:05,440
we'll cover that as well so join us this

314
00:13:11,030 --> 00:13:07,839
weekend saturday and sunday for off the

315
00:13:14,470 --> 00:13:11,040
beaten path same time slot as the ufo

316
00:13:17,829 --> 00:13:14,480
headline news and speaking of ufos here

317
00:13:20,550 --> 00:13:17,839
comes one now well a sighting that is no

318
00:13:23,269 --> 00:13:20,560
need to duck let's go to the area of

319
00:13:26,230 --> 00:13:23,279
princeton and trenton in new jersey in

320
00:13:29,269 --> 00:13:26,240
the united states it's got a mufon case

321
00:13:30,870 --> 00:13:29,279
number 86820

322
00:13:35,030 --> 00:13:30,880
the date of this sighting is september

323
00:13:36,470 --> 00:13:35,040
20th 2017 it was reported september 21st

324
00:13:37,910 --> 00:13:36,480
2017

325
00:13:41,990 --> 00:13:37,920
here's the summary

326
00:13:45,509 --> 00:13:42,000
hundreds of flying objects monroe new

327
00:13:48,150 --> 00:13:45,519
jersey well that's a third area location

328
00:13:51,110 --> 00:13:48,160
under citing specifics the witness lists

329
00:13:52,710 --> 00:13:51,120
a very close initial viewing distance 20

330
00:13:55,310 --> 00:13:52,720
feet or less

331
00:13:58,030 --> 00:13:55,320
than 21 to 100 feet

332
00:14:01,590 --> 00:13:58,040
101 to 500 feet

333
00:14:03,990 --> 00:14:01,600
501 feet to one mile and over one mile

334
00:14:06,470 --> 00:14:04,000
in other words this thing was moving

335
00:14:08,550 --> 00:14:06,480
the altitude was treetop the sighting

336
00:14:11,350 --> 00:14:08,560
duration two hours

337
00:14:13,189 --> 00:14:11,360
this object featured a patterned surface

338
00:14:15,110 --> 00:14:13,199
and unknown

339
00:14:18,870 --> 00:14:15,120
here's a description of the flight path

340
00:14:21,829 --> 00:14:18,880
of this object stationary hovering then

341
00:14:24,150 --> 00:14:21,839
path then path with directional change

342
00:14:27,110 --> 00:14:24,160
path then hovering

343
00:14:29,350 --> 00:14:27,120
this object was shaped like a diamond

344
00:14:30,949 --> 00:14:29,360
no clue as to what was going on

345
00:14:33,829 --> 00:14:30,959
weather-wise there's no mention

346
00:14:36,230 --> 00:14:33,839
whatsoever so let's just cut right to

347
00:14:39,189 --> 00:14:36,240
the siding in the first person raw

348
00:14:42,389 --> 00:14:39,199
unedited words of our witness

349
00:14:45,910 --> 00:14:42,399
i went for a walk around at 9 00 pm

350
00:14:47,350 --> 00:14:45,920
i saw an object in the distant night sky

351
00:14:50,150 --> 00:14:47,360
getting closer

352
00:14:51,430 --> 00:14:50,160
it was large with blinking red and white

353
00:14:54,230 --> 00:14:51,440
lights

354
00:14:56,550 --> 00:14:54,240
as i continued my walk i noticed more

355
00:14:59,030 --> 00:14:56,560
approaching from behind me they were

356
00:15:00,949 --> 00:14:59,040
various shapes and sizes

357
00:15:04,710 --> 00:15:00,959
and their lights were all different

358
00:15:07,110 --> 00:15:04,720
colors no two looked identical except

359
00:15:08,870 --> 00:15:07,120
for the larger ones which looked similar

360
00:15:10,870 --> 00:15:08,880
in size and shape

361
00:15:13,990 --> 00:15:10,880
these things were flying at different

362
00:15:16,150 --> 00:15:14,000
speeds and different distances from me

363
00:15:19,910 --> 00:15:16,160
before i knew it within a matter of half

364
00:15:22,550 --> 00:15:19,920
an hour hundreds were in the night sky

365
00:15:24,949 --> 00:15:22,560
some were orb-like others looked like

366
00:15:26,790 --> 00:15:24,959
twinkling stars in the distance and

367
00:15:29,269 --> 00:15:26,800
there were a few others that were gray

368
00:15:31,750 --> 00:15:29,279
and black and larger kite-shaped

369
00:15:34,150 --> 00:15:31,760
vehicles with blinking lights some of

370
00:15:35,750 --> 00:15:34,160
these lights that blinked were white red

371
00:15:38,550 --> 00:15:35,760
and green

372
00:15:41,509 --> 00:15:38,560
and then i noticed one of these hundreds

373
00:15:43,990 --> 00:15:41,519
of lights emitting a cloud trail

374
00:15:46,150 --> 00:15:44,000
upon turning around and returning home i

375
00:15:49,189 --> 00:15:46,160
noticed the flying pattern seemed to be

376
00:15:51,509 --> 00:15:49,199
in a cyclical rotation spanning four

377
00:15:53,269 --> 00:15:51,519
miles above my head

378
00:15:55,670 --> 00:15:53,279
some of these objects were flying and

379
00:15:57,269 --> 00:15:55,680
hovering in clusters while others seemed

380
00:15:59,829 --> 00:15:57,279
to be independent

381
00:16:02,389 --> 00:15:59,839
some ascended and descended while others

382
00:16:04,870 --> 00:16:02,399
moved at such a slow speed they didn't

383
00:16:07,269 --> 00:16:04,880
seem to be flying at all

384
00:16:08,389 --> 00:16:07,279
i was unable to capture any film with my

385
00:16:10,949 --> 00:16:08,399
phone

386
00:16:13,590 --> 00:16:10,959
once i returned home i caught some with

387
00:16:16,629 --> 00:16:13,600
my laptop camera however the pictures do

388
00:16:19,269 --> 00:16:16,639
not do the experience justice

389
00:16:20,550 --> 00:16:19,279
within an hour airplanes also appeared

390
00:16:22,550 --> 00:16:20,560
in this area

391
00:16:25,189 --> 00:16:22,560
there were at least four airplanes

392
00:16:26,790 --> 00:16:25,199
flying approximately over the scene

393
00:16:30,470 --> 00:16:26,800
right above my head

394
00:16:33,110 --> 00:16:30,480
there were hundreds of strange aircrafts

395
00:16:35,189 --> 00:16:33,120
in the sky that night

396
00:16:37,749 --> 00:16:35,199
wow and from what we know it's a

397
00:16:39,749 --> 00:16:37,759
relatively popular area

398
00:16:41,910 --> 00:16:39,759
it's a recent sighting we'll see what

399
00:16:44,629 --> 00:16:41,920
pops up in the area of princeton and

400
00:16:45,910 --> 00:16:44,639
trenton and monroe in the state of new

401
00:16:48,870 --> 00:16:45,920
jersey

402
00:16:51,110 --> 00:16:48,880
and by sheer random chance we go from

403
00:16:54,629 --> 00:16:51,120
monroe in the state of new jersey to the

404
00:16:56,550 --> 00:16:54,639
city of west monroe state of new york

405
00:16:59,269 --> 00:16:56,560
that's the setting for mufon sighting

406
00:17:01,189 --> 00:16:59,279
number 86731

407
00:17:03,749 --> 00:17:01,199
the date of this sighting is the 17th of

408
00:17:05,990 --> 00:17:03,759
september it got a same-day report

409
00:17:07,189 --> 00:17:06,000
here's what the witness offers by way of

410
00:17:09,990 --> 00:17:07,199
summary

411
00:17:11,270 --> 00:17:10,000
clear sky better view than normal

412
00:17:14,470 --> 00:17:11,280
looked up

413
00:17:17,829 --> 00:17:14,480
star moving across sky

414
00:17:20,069 --> 00:17:17,839
very fast no blinking

415
00:17:22,390 --> 00:17:20,079
under sighting specifics the listed

416
00:17:25,429 --> 00:17:22,400
viewing distance is over one mile the

417
00:17:27,429 --> 00:17:25,439
altitude was over 500 feet without cloud

418
00:17:30,070 --> 00:17:27,439
cover the sighting duration was one

419
00:17:31,430 --> 00:17:30,080
minute the object features are simply

420
00:17:34,070 --> 00:17:31,440
listed as none

421
00:17:37,029 --> 00:17:34,080
the flight path was a straight line path

422
00:17:39,270 --> 00:17:37,039
and this object's shape was star-like

423
00:17:41,510 --> 00:17:39,280
now weather listed and it's a short

424
00:17:44,150 --> 00:17:41,520
report but here we go

425
00:17:45,110 --> 00:17:44,160
clear sky better view than i normally

426
00:17:47,510 --> 00:17:45,120
have

427
00:17:50,230 --> 00:17:47,520
i looked up and there was a star

428
00:17:53,190 --> 00:17:50,240
moving across the night sky

429
00:17:54,870 --> 00:17:53,200
this star was going very fast and it was

430
00:17:57,270 --> 00:17:54,880
not blinking

431
00:17:59,830 --> 00:17:57,280
i suppose it could have been a satellite

432
00:18:02,310 --> 00:17:59,840
but i've seen satellites before and this

433
00:18:03,430 --> 00:18:02,320
was much easier to spot than any

434
00:18:06,150 --> 00:18:03,440
satellite

435
00:18:08,070 --> 00:18:06,160
and there were street lights on tonight

436
00:18:09,750 --> 00:18:08,080
this definitely was not a plane i was

437
00:18:11,510 --> 00:18:09,760
seeing as there were no blinking

438
00:18:14,070 --> 00:18:11,520
navigational lights

439
00:18:17,190 --> 00:18:14,080
and as well a plane flew by a minute

440
00:18:19,830 --> 00:18:17,200
after so i could tell the difference

441
00:18:22,630 --> 00:18:19,840
this object wasn't a meteor it had no

442
00:18:26,070 --> 00:18:22,640
tail and this object eventually went

443
00:18:28,950 --> 00:18:26,080
across my entire plane of view

444
00:18:30,789 --> 00:18:28,960
yep it's that old trope of stars don't

445
00:18:33,590 --> 00:18:30,799
move like that

446
00:18:36,110 --> 00:18:33,600
let's move to pittsburgh pennsylvania

447
00:18:37,669 --> 00:18:36,120
for this sighting mophon case number

448
00:18:39,669 --> 00:18:37,679
86817

449
00:18:43,110 --> 00:18:39,679
this event happened on the 20th of

450
00:18:44,230 --> 00:18:43,120
september it was reported september 21st

451
00:18:47,590 --> 00:18:44,240
summary

452
00:18:49,270 --> 00:18:47,600
i did not observe it only noticed later

453
00:18:51,669 --> 00:18:49,280
in photos

454
00:18:54,150 --> 00:18:51,679
well that's pretty much standard as well

455
00:18:56,230 --> 00:18:54,160
goes with the territory there are photos

456
00:18:59,270 --> 00:18:56,240
submitted with this event you can find

457
00:19:01,430 --> 00:18:59,280
them later at ufoheadlinenews.com

458
00:19:03,830 --> 00:19:01,440
make your own assessment

459
00:19:07,270 --> 00:19:03,840
citing specifics are vague the viewing

460
00:19:10,070 --> 00:19:07,280
distance unknown altitude unknown citing

461
00:19:13,029 --> 00:19:10,080
duration two minutes object features

462
00:19:16,470 --> 00:19:13,039
unknown as is the flight path of this

463
00:19:19,110 --> 00:19:16,480
object but its shape was square or

464
00:19:20,710 --> 00:19:19,120
rectangular and we're left to assume

465
00:19:22,310 --> 00:19:20,720
weather played no part here there's

466
00:19:24,950 --> 00:19:22,320
nothing listed

467
00:19:26,070 --> 00:19:24,960
the event seemed to go something like

468
00:19:28,070 --> 00:19:26,080
this

469
00:19:30,230 --> 00:19:28,080
i was walking around at point park

470
00:19:32,470 --> 00:19:30,240
around 8 40 p.m

471
00:19:34,710 --> 00:19:32,480
i snapped a few photos of the fountain

472
00:19:37,029 --> 00:19:34,720
the stadiums etc

473
00:19:39,029 --> 00:19:37,039
it was dark so i had to manually focus

474
00:19:41,029 --> 00:19:39,039
the camera otherwise my pictures

475
00:19:43,990 --> 00:19:41,039
appeared fuzzy

476
00:19:46,710 --> 00:19:44,000
later i was looking at the photos and i

477
00:19:49,510 --> 00:19:46,720
noticed that in one picture there were

478
00:19:51,909 --> 00:19:49,520
three objects in the sky

479
00:19:54,710 --> 00:19:51,919
at first glance i thought these objects

480
00:19:57,110 --> 00:19:54,720
resembled military aircraft

481
00:19:59,830 --> 00:19:57,120
however if you're able to zoom in you'll

482
00:20:01,750 --> 00:19:59,840
see that they bear no resemblance to

483
00:20:03,750 --> 00:20:01,760
normal aircraft

484
00:20:06,390 --> 00:20:03,760
there's a second photo taken one minute

485
00:20:08,789 --> 00:20:06,400
before the photo i just described you

486
00:20:11,110 --> 00:20:08,799
can see one of the objects and you can

487
00:20:13,590 --> 00:20:11,120
faintly see the other

488
00:20:16,070 --> 00:20:13,600
in that photo the object looks like it

489
00:20:17,110 --> 00:20:16,080
has little lights or circles on the

490
00:20:20,070 --> 00:20:17,120
bottom

491
00:20:21,990 --> 00:20:20,080
somehow it reminds me of a footprint

492
00:20:24,310 --> 00:20:22,000
normally i would write off this type of

493
00:20:26,789 --> 00:20:24,320
thing but what's bugging me is that we

494
00:20:28,710 --> 00:20:26,799
neither saw nor heard these things

495
00:20:30,630 --> 00:20:28,720
flying above us

496
00:20:33,909 --> 00:20:30,640
i feel like we would have noticed them i

497
00:20:35,669 --> 00:20:33,919
was staring up at the sky

498
00:20:37,990 --> 00:20:35,679
if these things hadn't appeared in my

499
00:20:39,830 --> 00:20:38,000
photos i would never have noticed them

500
00:20:41,909 --> 00:20:39,840
and also i don't think they would have

501
00:20:44,470 --> 00:20:41,919
shown up if i hadn't been trying to

502
00:20:47,830 --> 00:20:44,480
focus the camera

503
00:20:50,230 --> 00:20:47,840
ah so many cases where it's a trick of

504
00:20:53,110 --> 00:20:50,240
the camera a trick of the light prosaic

505
00:20:55,750 --> 00:20:53,120
and mundane objects captured in such a

506
00:20:57,029 --> 00:20:55,760
way they just don't look like anything

507
00:20:59,029 --> 00:20:57,039
from here

508
00:21:01,430 --> 00:20:59,039
