That is kind of cool looking. I was wondering how the pilot managed to fly in perfect circles like that. I didn't even know helicopters had autopilots.

Yup, definitely a cloud formation. Those little buggers can take some amazing shapes sometimes.

i don't know....i certainly believe ufos hide in clouds and even make their own clouds to hide in..... i do not believe every cloud that looks lenticular is a lenticular cloud... in fact i believe the clouds that look like a ufo are probably ufos.... we have a thread called ufo clouds..... here is the link .... some of these clouds scream ufo.... theedgeofreality.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=science&action=display&thread=1020

I agree that UFOs do sometimes hide in clouds. I have read plenty of reports of them doing it, as well as actually manufacturing their own clouds to hide in. The clouds in that photo though are huge! And if a UFO did create it to hide in it's not doing a very good job of it because some dude with a camera took a picture of it. I still think it's just a cloud.

That looks exactly like the huge thunderheads we get over our local mountains and the picture looks suspiciously like our local mountains. They make our lives a sticky humid mess but alas aren't hiding ufo's.

Those probably are your local mountains. I believe the picture was taken near Las Angeles.

Maybe so then and as a matter of fact..there have been a few UFO reports in our little valley of Ramona..oddly enough on bright cloudless days (figures right?). I saw one in MUFON's archives that was reported just a couple of years ago and I know there have been others . I would think it's a good area for them..surrounded by military bases, several water reservoirs, very rural and a nuclear power plant close by too..plus in the 'day' there were FBI stations also.

Thanks for the comments on the cloud formation. Thought I'd share another one for your comments. This to me looks like a digital camera artifact caused by taking a picture of the sun. Steve's thread has a couple of examples of sun-caused digital artifacts, but those examples show an almost disk-shaped object in the brightest spot of the photo. This is different in that the artifact (assuming it is an artifact) shows up off to the side. What do you think? Thanks again for your comments. This photo/sighting is reported here: www.sightingsreport.com/sightings/20

X-48 100th Test FlightThe Boeing X-48 Blended Wing Body subscale research aircraft made its 100th flight in late October at NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif. The milestone occurred Oct. 30 when the unmanned X-48C aircraft was flown on two separate 25-minute flights -- the seventh and eighth flights for the X-48C since it began flying Aug. 7. Between 2007 and 2010, the aircraft, then in the X-48B configuration, made 92 flights. Pictured here, Boeing's X-48C Blended Wing Body research aircraft is silhouetted against the morning sky over Edwards Air Force Base on Oct. 16, 2012.

This is a perfect example of one of the biggest problems facing ufology: UFO Controversy Cleared Posted on December 13, 2012 by East Idaho News BLACKFOOT) – When Blackfoot residents reported what they believed were UFOs Saturday night, it left plenty of people in the community scratching their heads. What was originally thought to be a visit from extra-terrestrials turned out to be sky lanterns. The lights led to at least three calls to the National UFO Reporting Center. The low-flying balloon-shaped lights were launched from a wedding reception at a venue near the city center. Following a community survey conducted by Local News 8, Bryan Shigihara of Shelley stepped forward with video evidence linking the lights to the wedding lanterns. www.eastidahonews.com/2012/12/ufo-controversy-cleared/

Chinese lanterns are pretty easy to identify once you know what they look like. The average person wouldn't know what they were looking at but a good ufologist should be able to figure it out pretty easily.

Today, front page of the Kansas City Star:
"Drones raise fears of spies in skies"
we have a Missouri legislator drafting legislation to ban "drones" from conducting surveilance without a warrant. . .

I would be all in favor of it except for the part about "without a warrant." Let me see...the government is going to ask the government to give itself a warrant? Hmm...what are the odds they would get one? And if they didn't who would ever know? Is the government going to admit that the government isn't obeying its own laws? I doubt it.
I hope the law passes but since the people voting on it are the same people who are doing the spying I don't think it is going to happen.

I'm looking to see if anyone has posted pictures of the Astra (part of the Aurora project). Am I on the wrong thread?

If it is something I have never heard of it is definitely the right thread. Post away people.

Here is a video that contains some photos that they are claiming is the Astra.

As far as I know there aren't any clear photos of the Astra because the Top Secret thing isn't supposed to exist. There are some computer generated images that show what it supposedly looks like.

That's it (I guess). I will try to find the article I saw recently that claims it has been in existence since the early 90's. Even the "Belgium UFO" flap of 1989 to 1993 had officials pointedly asking if the US knew anything about the triangles they were seeing . I feel really weird about this. I don't know if you guys recall me saying that whenever I saw a triangle, I was more "angry" than fearful or astounded. I felt spied on. I've always had a "sense" that these things were ours, but I don't know why. I'm more into that thought process, than saying "I told you so". The article I read claims that they (the Astra) are nuclear, and its speed and maneuverability can be handled by the human driver because the driver becomes part of the anti-gravity (or lack of gravity) field. So, my next thought is, what eventual "changes" happen to the driver after being exposed to all that over time??

here it is: www.darkgovernment.com/news/tr-3b/The TR-3B is Code named Astra. The tactical reconnaissance TR-3B first operational flight was in the early 90s. The triangular shaped nuclear powered . . .

I remember you having the sighting Jc. You stated anger as being one of the emotions you felt. On my part it was more of confusion,wonder, and amazement. The triangular design with a circular feature at each of the three corners is what I witnessed. The craft I saw was dark and the middle appeared distorted. The one I saw vanished right before my eyes,,,,,,strangest thing ! I have tried to figure out how it did that. Ive considered at least 2 possibilities. One is that there may be an outer "skin" which has individual(mirror like)panels that flip causing the craft to appear like it's surrounding environment blending in as a stealth feature. The other may be that it warps or accelerates so quick the eyes can't see it. Several things about it I found remarkable. It's size being one,,,,shape being another. The disappearing act I call it was incredible.Normally things just don't do that. Before it vanished it appeared normal and clear at one point and then quickly "distorted",fading before "blinking out",,,very odd. I know how strange that sounds but I would be lying if I told it any other way other than what it was. I suspect it was possibly an x project but who really knows ? I wonder how many gyroscopes it takes to keep this thing airborne.

The government does have some triangle-shaped lighter than air craft that they use for extremely high altitude surveillance and transport but they don't zip around at supersonic speeds. Some of them are reported to be huge...almost a mile long in some cases. They also have some small supersonic planes that are sort of triangle shaped but they don't look like that Astra thingy.
It's also possible that some of the triangle craft are not entirely earthly in origin.
