Minuteman III "UFO" pictures
James Oberg wrote an article in 1982 about how a lot of Soviet UFO
sightings were actually secret rocket tests and test warhead reentries: http://www.debunker.com/texts/soviet_coverup.html If you would like to see just how unearthly a missile's exhaust can look in the nighttime sky, take a gander at the pictures on this page of the aerial phenomena generated by a Minuteman III launch from Vandenburg in 2002; particularly the last few, which would do credit to "Close Encounters Of The Third Kind": http://www.freqofnature.com/photos/mmiii/ Pat Flannery |

My best guesse was that it might have been coloured smoke from a local event, lit from beneath (although with the air quality here I should have been able to see the lighting) -- but my assumption of scale was way off. Later that night I found out from the Internet what it was that I had seen, but I can well imagine the kinds of conclusions others might jump to. Kris |

Hi Pat:
Yes, a lot of Vandenberg missile launches are mistaken for UFOs. For some examples of how unusual some of those launches can look, check out the Vandenberg launch photos on my web site at http://www.spacearchive.info/library.htm. By the way, the guy who runs www.freqofnature.com is located about 5 miles east of me. Regards, Brian "Pat Flannery" wrote in message ...
