Of course it's impressive, it's awesome. I just meant when you see it pass over, you....well I, kind of went....Oh yer and went to bed.
I agree. It looks like a slow moving plane without the flashing lights and the noise. But I love this ****. We have Rosetta orbiting 67P/Churyumov Gerasimenko, unprecedented pictures of a comet, New Horizons, gave us high resolution pictures of Pluto, Cassini orbiting Saturn, Curiosity on Mars, SOHO orbiting the Sun, Dawn orbiting Vesta and Ceres, Juno's just arrived at Jupiter, I could go on. Space X, New Shepherd. ****, I did go on. Humans by and large are rubbish, but we do some stuff that blows my ****ing mind.
The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter has taken images of the landing sites. I assume your mam's chebs are real.
Satellites are great to see ... when my daughter was younger we used to lay on sunbeds this time of year and watch the sky ... great stuff I told her the satellites where the ones going in straight definite path across the sky. I hope I haven't just made a dick of myself? lol
You'll be thinking about that tv documentary, where some silly ****s tried to prove it didn't happen? I was told about that by four mates and they got me interested. I eventually saw it for myself after a couple of years. Everyone who saw that documentary, clearly forgot to tell me about the counter arguments that followed every single theory. People just want to believe these things. I suppose it makes things more interesting and wonderous. Ghosts are real though...
Does it also explain why we've never been back? Also, if ghosts are real, what do you think they are? Personally I believe in ghosts, but don't believe that they are the spirits of the dead.
Surely, not all conspiracy theories can be completely wrong. Besides, it's healthy to have a distrust in what we're spoon-fed by politicians and the media.
Stayed in a dark sky area for a bit, and the amount of satellites and stuff that could clearly be seen flying over was incredible. I've stayed on plenty of remote camp sites, but this really was something else. No wonder we don't see much in the sky round here, them bastards are nicking all the stars.
If you head up to old Everthorpe you get some great views of the night sky if the temperature is right. I had a ufo experience a few years back, not for the first time, but it sticks out because my friends had always asked me about it and naturally there was some skepticism. But that particular time I had two skeptic guys with me and they both saw it. It shook them up something chronic.
So, another example of "the only possible explanation", like Dark Matter, Dark Energy, Black Holes, etc.? Yeah, sure, that sounds about right.
The idea that governments have 'classified' information is an insult to citizens, especially in so-called democracies like the United States where sovereignty supposedly rests with the people. Area 51's existence and the fact ordinary citizens can't 'trespass' on government property with the threat of lethal force is a complete contradiction of sovereignty of the people. Theoretically, nothing should be classified or out-of-bounds in a democracy.
Perhaps I should have been clearer. Nothing should be classified and out-of-bounds by the government. And I'm not sure anyone would want my bank account details and password, I'm £800 into my overdraft.
I imagine some foreign powers would be overjoyed if we had that as a policy. Mass redundancy in the spy industry is possibly a small price to pay.
