UFO in US Airspace Becomes News 2 Months Later
There are a great many things in the news that catch my eye, this UFO sighting over Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport is one of them.
Disc-shaped UFO over Chicago’s O’Hare Airport triggers national, international news coverage
Steve Hammons
January 4, 2007Eyewitness reports from United Airlines employees and pilots about a gray, metallic, disc-shaped craft hovering over Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport have resulted in widespread news coverage within the mainstream U.S. media and international news outlets.
In a Chicago Tribune column published Jan. 1, Jon Hilkevitch reported on the Nov. 7, 2006, incident.
Hilkevitch wrote that the object was first seen by a United ramp worker at about 4:30 p.m., while directing a United plane at Gate C17. Several other United employees also reportedly witnessed the UFO.
When the Associated Press picked up the story this week, major media outlets such as the New York Times, CNN, MSNBC, ABC News and National Public Radio carried reports on the encounter. Even the political Web site TruthDig.com carried a report of the sighting.
The sighting itself is interesting, the idea that it doesn’t get any legs until two months later is also interesting, then again, given the day it happened on maybe not.
Where intelligent and advanced extraterrestrial life is concerned I believe two things:
- Intelligent and advanced extraterrestrial life exists. To look out at the stars at night, think about how many of them have planets orbiting them, consider how many of those planets has the potential to sustain life, and still believe that we are the best and the brightest the universe has to offer, is the height of arrogance.
- Governments would “shelter” the masses from the knowledge that any sort of proof exists, or that contact has been made, that proves item 1 for two reasons; [1] because they believe that the masses are not yet ready for this news, and [2] to get as much out of it for themselves before that knowledge becomes general knowledge.
I think a lot of people (deep down) agree with your assertions. How else do you explain the massive success of the television show the X Files?
I have no belief either way in regard to life on other planets or elsewhere in the Universe. I don’t understand how anyone can form a “belief” either way.
But then, I suppose Julius Caesar was correct:
“Fere libenter homines id quod volunt credunt.”
Fairly weak story, imho.
a) No named witnesses, and an extreme vagueness in all reports about who actually saw what.
b) No radar trace. UFOlogists, of course, love to cite anomalous radar signals as proof of UFO incursions, but when “sightings” in highly trafficked areas leave no radar trace, they flip their stance around and mumble about unfathomably advanced Stealth technologies (which the aliens presumably forgot to turn on those other times.)
c) O’Hare is one of the busiest hubs in the US, but this somehow escaped the attention of thousands of passengers, pilots, and controllers, not to mention, of course, the millions of other folks living in Chicago.
Balb, it is obvious that you have a dire problem – a problem of faith.
It is incumbent upon you to get down on your knees and pray to all of the Supreme Beings and ask of them to give you more faith. Faith is a gift from the Supreme Beings. The Supreme Beings have told us this, through their revelations. Therefore, it is truth.
You must accept this gift of faith. Then, once you do, you will find yourself getting along much better with others – especially those that have already accepted the Gift Of Faith.
I had it, but the warranty expired and I never renewed.
consider how many of those planets has the potential to sustain life, and still believe that we are the best and the brightest the universe has to offer, is the height of arrogance.
Not as arrogant as thinking we’re so interesting that they’re all coming here to check us out.
Hmmm…. strange lights in the sky….. we don’t know what they are…..they MUST be craft piloted by extra-terestrial life!!!!!!
Scientific method be damned!!!!
Ya think so NastyBoy? Guess that whole Voyager mission thing, and robots crawling around Mars looking for signs of microscopic life, is a sign of that arrogance ‘eh?
IMO a society as dangerous, violent, and unpredictable, as the human one bears watching, if ya don’t think so stop and consider how closely we watch our own dangerous, violent, and unpredictable, sub-societies just in case they cut loose and do something stupid.
Science fiction isn’t science. Just sayin’.
