UFO fan Chris digs up real-life X-Files





"The sightings were taken so seriously that high-level consultations were carried out to see if it could have been top-secret trials of American stealth aircraft."

If I encounter the term "real-life X-Files" one more time I'm going to kill somebody.

I think the most interesting point in this story is the statement that the objects "could not have been...the Aurora...".

If such a statement reflects reality, it means that the British asked the US, and was told that it could not be the Aurora. The statement did not say that the US confirmed that there is no such thing. There is mention that the US claims that it does not exist, but that's not what the statement says.

Is this smoking gun evidence that the Aurora exists? And if so, would a denial that these objects were in fact aurora craft not be expected?

The clear implication is that the British military believes the Aurora does exist.

If Aurora does exist, many "black triangle" sightings could easily be explained. Of course, the B-2, the F-117, and the SR-71 explain a number of sightings, as well.

But the unusual nature of the Aurora's presumed propulsion system and even more unusual planform would necessarily result in sightings of "UFOs", since that is exactly what they are...even by the US military, who still refuse to identify the Aurora as an actual craft.

It would be really helpful if the military...rather than acting as if there is nothing weird up there, would at least give hints about what they have, so researchers could avoid long hours looking for something extraterrestrial, when it is in fact a terrestrial craft.

I mean, if the British believe Aurora exists, surely whatever enemies we have out there believe it, too. So what's the harm in letting the cat partway out of the bag?

I agree with you on stealth blimps being a likely6 explanation for *some* "flying triangle" sightings.

Here's an idea: Maybe the US started making stealth blimps to serve as plausible deniability in case of a mass sighting of FTs. In case FTs made an impressive overflight of a major city in broad daylight, the Pentagon could hold a press conference and explain to all us saps that what we actually saw were secret blimps.

I seriously doubt the media would ask too many questions, even if the flight characteristics were wildly dissimilar.
