UFO Evidence From SOHO Satellite

Posted by timothy on Sunday January 19, 2003 @07:59AM from the until-they're-identified-they're-unidentified dept.

Anonymous Coward writes "EuroSeti is set to reveal during the week of Jan 24-27 National Space Centre in Leicester, UK scientifically sound and verifiable evidence based on observations taken by the SOHO satellite and other satellites that indicate UFOs are present within our solar system. For the past two years, hundreds of extraordinary UFO-like images have been gleaned by a Spanish-based team using two space-based satellites. NASA initially tried to explain the images away as pixel faults, passing meteors or asteroids, etc., but when a European-led consortium presented them with images that clearly were none of the aforementioned, they 'clamped up.'"

A Small Office/Home Office satelite would do something the big commercial, governmental and scientific satelites couldn't! Amazing!

  And how do we know that you, my friend, are not part of the conspiracy to cover this up?
  The conspiracy to cover it up involved the DoS attack aka being slashdotted. The boys in the black jackets knew that no one of slashdot would accept the aliens because they used a closed non-open source computing environment and that it had already been done in Star Trek and X-Files. Plus they are all too hard for regular people to understand anyway. Then the UFO site goes down under the load and the government conspiracy can get back to doing trilateral control of the oil reserves.

  Why do all alien species have an apostraphy "'" in their name?
  
  Maybe an alian race has an unusually easy to pronounce name. Like "Bob" or "people of Bob"

  Just remember guys, a few things we know about these aliens so far: They're VERY susceptible to dying from earth based bacteria (War of the Worlds), their computers can be interfaced via Macintosh computers.. although I'm afraid we'll need to use OS9 or Classic mode to do that since they aren't advanced enough to use a BSD kernel yet (Independence Day), and water is deadly to them! (Signs) Remember this when they start invading guys.

Maybe now that some more people want to start being scientific about UFOs they'll take a look at improving this formula that accounts for 75% of the variance in the frequency of UFO activity per square mile:

A "UFO" is just an unidentified flying object.

Yeah; I just saw a UFO out of my window here. It landed in a nearby tree. It was probably either a sparrow or a downy woodpecker, both of which are fairly common in this neighborhood. But it's getting dark, and the critter was too far away to identify clearly.

So it was definitely a UFO.
