I am not convinced by any means. I have to go look again at the picture referenced, but if it is the one that Astromut magnified to the point of distortion then you and others are 100% calling Eric a lier.

Take a look AT ANY MAGNIFICATION.

Is the "planet" (lens flare) in front or behind the power line?
Be honest.

Is this really debatable?

wow bluepill, now I know what you are talking about - I must have missed this when you posted it the first time ... that is fantastic ! ... never EVER seen a "lens-flare" that looked like that - and I have seen a ton of them ... of course the "experts" would HAVE to say that ... we can expect nothing less - from individuals in DENIAL
 Quoting: SunnyDaze


Really? Watch this video. Then watch it again. Watch it until you understand the concept of a filter flare.

So, at 01:03 the smaller "object" next to the sun begins to move along with the camera. An obvious lens flare.

This is not earth-shattering. Maybe I missed it, but what is there to understand here?

Yeah it's getting comical now. You know, when I was younger I used to believe anyone when they said they saw a UFO (was a big coast to coast am listener). Now I realize just how ignorant the average person is when it comes to astronomy. GLP has really opened my eyes. I still believe the universe is full of life, I'm just a lot more skeptical of the reported sightings now.

Re: There REALLY IS something strange in western sky around sunset...!!!
Bottom line .
people are noticing SOMETHING DIFFERENT and it's getting their attention ! ...seeing a brighter object or a flashing object in the western sky that is not something they have seen or remember seeing .


I wish my scope was still working properly ...

I keep thinking there is something wicked this way that is incoming WHICH is lighting up or illuminating Venus , Arcturus or Antares brighter than normal .

If there is a new object GLP will find it in time . TRUTH always comes to the surface in time .

Apocalypse ( "lifting of the veil" or "revelation") is a disclosure of something hidden from the majority of mankind in an era dominated by falsehood and misconception, i.e. the veil to be lifted.

Re: There REALLY IS something strange in western sky around sunset...!!!
astro, you may believe anything that you want ... and I may as well - but there is no way, that anyone can tell what that object is - using MY pictures ...

I looked at every dot that appeared in the sky for over a half an hour ... some were clouds, and most were con-trail - which were easily distinguishable but what I saw - was neither ... neither

you did not see what I saw - that's as plain and simple as I can get - the picture I took, just to verify its location could not possibly be used to determine what it is - and that sort of judgment call on your part, is what is causing you to loose all your credibility on GLP

believe it or not - it is not a contrail, because you say so

IMO the only one who has failed to grasp the significance of a post as unique as this one has been is you - because you have completly closed your mind to the possibility that there is something out there - that isn't on the sky-map - THAT ISN'T a CONTRAIL ... while the rest of us are obviously OPEN to that possibility and being rewarded for our efforts - no matter what you choose to believe - or not

Re: There REALLY IS something strange in western sky around sunset...!!!
Ain't nuthin' there...spent 4 days on Gulf Coast of FL. Had clear skies, uninterrupted view of sunset setting into the Gulf of Mexico. Watched with binoculars from about 1/2 hour before sunset to about 45 minutes after sunset every evening. I have the damn no-see-um bites to prove it.

Really really really wanted to see something. There was nothing there (besides the spectacular sight of the sun disappearing into the gulf). None of the other spectators there saw anything either.

I now believe that what The Hopefuls thinks they see are either contrails or lens flares or substantial amounts of wishful thinking.

The phenomenon is local to each observer, not universal. Sorry.

Southwest Montana 7:45p.m.- Clear skies. It's there. I see it. Low on the horizon. First night in a couple of weeks it's been clear and no clouds. Don't know what it is, but I've seen other anomalies in the sky. Few years back it was an asteroid that the public didn't know about. This is probably the same, IDK.

sorry, forgot to change the date/time/stamp - still showing Aug instead of October - but the time and day is right

these are not to show you anything other than its location on my horizon ... as you can see, it appears very close to the same place - above the mt and in the sky

it is very faint in this shot - look to the rt of the tel pole

[link to i272.photobucket.com]

10/08/13
[link to i272.photobucket.com]

and in this one it is also faint, (don't be distracted by the chemtrails to the left ... it is almost in the middle of the shot (slightly to the rt) and appears to have moved left from the position in the previous shots - but so did the Sun - and it seems to be the same distance from the sun - but that is the best shot I got of it tonight - within two minutes it was cover by the chem-clouds

10/19/13
[link to i272.photobucket.com]

and Astro and Geo, just for you - fyi, this is what a contrail looks like with my camera

[link to i272.photobucket.com]

as you can see, there is a clear difference - and I know what a contrail looks like
 Quoting: SunnyDaze


Those are both contrails. Good job not figuring out the obvious. Your camera cannot resolve the plane.
 Quoting: Dr. Astro


I just saw this same object earlier this evening right after sunset. Was watching it with Binos(10x42) There is no aircraft involved with this object. So you tell me how a contrail is at the same exact position every single night, same dimensions, same orientation and falls to the horizon at the same speed as the sun EVERY SINGLE NIGHT!
THIS IS NOT A CONTRAIL!

An orb floating around, to me a believer in ET UFOs, is a bit boring. Yay! Even if it's out there every night. So?

I wouldn't get excited about this, or even if there were 25 or so of them, although I can see how some people might.

If it was a massive triangle mother-ship, now -that- would be cool to see a picture/video of (not too close, mind you).
