Hi guys, I've been perusing for a few months now and thought I'd finally make a profile so I can join in on the conversation.

A little about me: I recently read Dr. Kip Thorne's Black Holes and Time Warps: Einstein's Outrageous Legacy and that got me really interested in physics and our universe in general. That and I saw a UFO a few years ago.

Anyways, looking forward to talking with all of y'all.

Welcome to BAUT Klaus.
I have seen a lot of UFO's.


The last one quite close, fortunately I ducked and it splatted on the wall. At that point it became an MbISO.

See, I don't know what MbISO means :-D

I didn't see some lights in the sky, I saw a hive shaped object that must have been the size of a building with all these lights and antenna-like things poking out the sides rotating pretty fast flying right over me and it made my car rattle.

But I'm not one of those crazy people who believe that aliens are among us or Area 51 harbors alien bodies or something (in doesn't).

Hey Klaus, welcome to the forum. So you did see flying lights, except they were attached to a hive thing that was doing the flying. Was it nighttime?

Mangled but Identified Splattered Object.
Yeah... I wasn't willing to pay for one of those truckers when I moved my mobile.

Hi, thank you!

It was in the evening. It flew over my car in rural Oklahoma, and was, I'd guess, 100 yards over my car.
It flew fairly slow, the rows of a few lights were spinning, and it had 5 or 6 different sized spikes or little towers or antennas sticking out.

I could see that it was a dark gray in the area without the lights.

Yeah .. those were kids running wearing their new alien headbands with Glow in the dark antennas.

Too bad you didn't get a photo.
Next time you go there, remember to always have a camera ready for action.

Welcome Klaus.
If you had a low resolution camera you would be a very wealthy man/woman by now.

Welcome to BAUT, Klaus.

At night, about 2004, near Lake Arlington (western shore), I saw an UFO, that I concluded was probably one of ours.

I paused in a round of my post, and looked up. The stars were bright, overhead, so bright...and one started moving. It was directly overhead, and covered about 45[HTML]⁰[HTML] of arc in the sky, to the eastern horizion, in less than a minute. It shook me up.

In a few minutes, I decided that I had seen some test aircraft prototype kick onto afterburner, directly overhead. And, fly away to the east. There was no sound, and my impression is that it was very high up. I say that, because the F35 had been in testing at the nearby Carswell JNRB, for several years.

Salty, could it have been an iridium flare? They move quite fast, as does the ISS. And they can be very bright if you catch them in the right orbit.
