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. Quoting: Bluepill Bluepill: Here is the photo: [link to imageshack.us] 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 Really? Watch this video. Then watch it again. Watch it until you understand the concept of a filter flare. |

An obvious lens flare. This is not earth-shattering. Maybe I missed it, but what is there to understand here? Last Edited by Cassandra's Echo on 10/20/2013 02:04 PM |

BoxerLvr User ID: 1308932 Puerto Rico 10/20/2013 03:45 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 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. It is precisely because it is fashionable for Americans to know no science, even though they may be well educated otherwise, that they so easily fall prey to nonsense. They thus become part of the armies of the night, the purveyors of nitwittery, the retailers of intellectual junk food, the feeders on mental cardboard, for their ignorance keeps them from distinguishing nectar from sewage. — Isaac Asimov |

Apocalypse Girl User ID: 42462625 United States 10/20/2013 04:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 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 .

Anonymous Coward User ID: 41776100 United States 10/20/2013 09:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 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. |

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. |

Good job not figuring out the obvious. Your camera cannot resolve the plane. 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! Dr. Astro you are either a Shill or too blind, stupid or biased to have any credibility at this pint. |

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). |
