Wow ufo on Fox in Fresno then deleted

We discuss when and what.

Other mo's just discuss not when and not what.

I'm sorry, but, I must defend this line of thinking. Ignore the fool for writing such a response.

Likely a military program... but who knows.

Good find, OP!

Ribbed outer skin UFO? I don't think so.
It is an easier but not as aerodynamic way for humans to construct a flexible inflatable craft. A terrestrial saucer shaped lighter than air powered craft... But bucking 30-70mph side winds? Some kind of new anti-drag tech going on there.

Here's a little hint.
It's part balloon and part parachute.
And it can maneuver using differentials between light temperature and pressure.

well definitely looks like a weather balloon

Wow, people really are dumber than they were 20 years ago, I thank the internet. It's Venus or Jupiter, if you follow things that happen up in the sky for example, like these people called astronomers, you would have known that Venus and Jupiter this weekend will be bright as approaching aircraft during dawn and dusk hours (hence the 4 hours). Get edumakated for Godsake.

Flatten it out for side-winds, add propulsion, and a you have a loitering drone platform.
However the FAA should know about these things... they'd really gum up a jet engine. :)
What, no transponder for FlightAware?

Those are fallen angels mascarading as 'space brothers' The great deception is going to play out as are the words of Jesus.

Also it was deleted because some producer actually had the fucking sense to ask someone who knows what it might be and didn't want to go on looking like friggen cavemen ooping and eeking at the sky.

VIDEO

That producer will NEVER do a segment like that again. Same thing goes the next time a cameraman says he's got a UFO in his HD cam viewer!

This is a poor, simple minded attempt at an explanation for something you cannot explain.

In the News video, the weather pattern was explained and the 10 to 20 mph winds would have caused movement, even a "tethered balloon" moves in the wind.

Also, if any organization was using a "tethered balloon" for ANY REASON, they would have to get permission from the FAA and notify local Air Traffic Control, and the News station would have access to that information as News and other helicopters are allowed to fly at low altitudes.

This was not a "tethered balloon". If you make any claims you should do your research first. This could not have been a balloon.

Lemoore is hardly in the middle of the desert, it IS in the middle of one of the biggest AG valley's on the planet. The base there helps protect the central coast of California, and has advanced weapons. What many don't know, is the small towns that surround the base, are filled with Arabs.

GO TO THE 4:58 MARK THIS ONE LOOKS SIMILAR BUT HAS LIGHTS

OMG my first pin

I hate to state the obvious and ruin this doom, but did anyone consider it may just have been a military exercise? Thats what they do there, to keep their skills sharp.

Here's your sign..

deleted from video.godlikeproductions what gives???
now glp is deleting like youtube.... you are looking more of a joke

Surveilance drone tech test would be my best guess for this object.

Various tech has come from nawc lemoore's numerous squadrons and alot of it is AI or Drone based. That's all I can say on the matter.

Stayed in the same place in the sky for 4 hours..

And He Actually said it was "A parachute"..

something is definitely up...

This!

this was 2006, i bet we are much better at it now! dhs ! again.

see link for pic.

Unmanned Surveillance Balloon To Hit the Skies

August 2006

By Grace Jean

UnmannedSurveillancePARIS — The next wave in unmanned aerial systems may hark back to the dawn of human flight more than a century ago.

Aeronautics Defense Systems Ltd., based in Israel, which produces tactical UAVs with sophisticated navigation and control technologies, has developed an unmanned surveillance aircraft that looks like a balloon but flies like a kite.

The Skystar 300 is a small aerostat that can carry day and night sensors up to 1,000 feet in the air. When filled with helium, the 25-foot wide balloon floats up and gives operators 360-degree observation coverage. It is tethered to a long cable, which is anchored to the ground.

While the demand for lighter, faster and cheaper UAVs is increasing, there also is a need for unmanned aerial systems that work silently beneath the clouds, with long endurance and extended sensor range, says Yair Atzmon, head of the company’s ground division. In addition, such systems must be both inexpensive and easy to maintain and operate to keep up with the increasing appetite for visual information at the individual soldier level.

Skystar 300 and its smaller cousin, Skystar 100, can fill that gap, he says. They offer troops at the squad level an opportunity to see “over the hill” without relying upon conventional drones that may be tasked by units conducting missions at higher echelons, he says.

The battery-operated systems are designed to be rapidly deployable by two to three persons from a vehicle or on foot. Users can manipulate the system via a laptop or a tripod-mounted ground control station.

To fly drones usually requires special training, but to fly the balloon systems requires maybe one or two lessons, says Atzmon.

“Anybody can learn to use it,” he says.

To manufacture the Skystar, the company, which is producing a traditional tactical UAV called Aerostar for the U.S. market, basically took one of its mini drones, cut off the wings and tied it to a balloon, to put it in very simplistic terms, says Atzmon.

While Skystar’s flying mechanisms may seem primitive, its onboard capabilities feature next-generation technologies. Guided by global positioning satellites, the aerostats contain all the navigational assets of the mini UAVs, he says, including a black box recorder that comes standard on all the company’s unmanned aerial systems. Both balloons can host a wide range of payload, from digital processing day cameras to cooled and uncooled infrared thermal sensors. And though they may appear fragile, the balloons are sturdy, adds Atzmon.

Skystar 300 is built to withstand high winds, up to 40 knots, he says.

Stabilization technologies allow the systems to provide clear images of whatever they may be viewing.

“Skystar 300 can detect a man sitting five kilometers away inside a vehicle,” says Atzmon.

Not only can the systems assist in military security and stability operations in Iraq, but they also can function in homeland security roles, says Atzmon.



(sorry now ufo! just the gov spying again.)

Damn lizards.

I agree 100% it looks very much like a weather balloon. The Flatten into a disk at that altitude. Only prob is the entire sitting there thing; that would def not happen.

Wow! Great find!

I bet plenty of people had their cell phones and cameras. Hopefully they'll be posting to youtube.
