UFO Disclosure Group Releases Newest Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet UFO Encounter Video (cnn.com)

alaskana98 writes: CNN and other media outlets are reporting that the "To The Stars Academy of Arts and Science" group has released the third in a series of videos purportedly showing an encounter between Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet pilots and an object moving at seemingly impossible speeds off the East Coast of the United States. The video was captured by the Raytheon: Advanced Targeting Forward-Looking Infrared (ATFLIR) pod and includes audio of the pilots excitedly observing this object from far above as it zooms over the ocean surface. The ATFLIR system has trouble getting a lock on the object at first but then gets a lock on it eventually demonstrating that whatever this this was it wasn't a figment of the pilots imaginations. If the video is authentic there are indeed some strange things flying in our skies. The video can be viewed here.

    They were flying at exactly 25k feet for the entire segment of that video?

    Alien feet, not human feet.

    There's an equation to convert alien feet into the size of Wales, but it's too big to fit in the margin of this page . . .

    O, I don't agree.
    I didn't read the article (nothing new there).
    I didn't watch the video.
    What I did, was read the comments. The comments alone makes it worth /. posting this, imo.

    I wanted to verify your claim, but found no data on the subject. Ergo : you are right.
