NWS investigating mysterious blob on radar above Redstone Arsenal in Alabama
Researchers at the University of Alabama in Huntsville and the National Weather Service are working to figure out why radars are showing a mysterious blob above Redstone Arsenal

<snip>Radar showed no chaff as would be deployed from military aircraft, clouds or anything else in the sky that might be causing the image. Arsenal officials said they did not know what was causing the echo to appear.

While no one seems to know what caused the image, the conspiracy theorists are already abuzz. Posters on various internet sites said a white substance was falling from the sky in the area of Zierdt Road during the same time, while others pointed to another cause - aliens.

Re: NWS investigating mysterious blob on radar above Redstone Arsenal in Alabama
The last possible explanation is that the radar detected what's know in the military world as "chaff". From what I've learned, chaff are particles sprayed by aircraft or from ships and are used to produce these false radar echoes in hopes of making missiles miss their targets. Usually chaff are made of aluminum which is designed to be invisible. It may be that the nearby arsenal dispersed the chaff into the air as a test to "hide" an aircraft. A Chinook helicopter was reported circling the area. Or the helicopter itself was spraying the chaff. I've heard officials at the arsenal were contacted but didn't confirm any of this. It's still a mystery, but interesting nonetheless!
