How are they going to make a tank invisible? Can they do that with anything else?

Squids taste GREAT! Haven't you ever eaten calamari ( deep fried little squid rings) with a lovely sauce of yogurt and cucumber? (I forget how to spell - tiziki?) I order it in restaurants because when I made it at home the little squid rings suddenly go round when they get hot and fling burning batter all over the cook and walls. I'm NOT sure about eating Humbolt (six foot) squid. I'd give it try though.
As for changing color - go to utube and look at octopus and squid clips - they not only change color but the octopus changes texture to look like coral or rocks.

Thanks for digging up the octopus film Skywalker - I've got to say though, the photographer was too close and the octopus was on the run (and showing an irritated red) and so did not display his/her full skill at matching the background. I like the way it kept its arms tucked in so it so less octopus looking in outline. They are very smart animals. If they lived longer than 8 years they might be formidible to meet underwater. As it is, divers often have their masks ripped off - playfully? Or not??

I was actually looking for a different video that I remember seeing where an octopus was blending in to it's surroundings but I wasn't able to find it. I'll keep looking.

Auntym.. This is just for fun.. in the fourth video, the host stated they made a movie in 84 of this supposed experience and it was a flop.. Now this got me mad.. I loved that movie. It had my favorite actor in it. Micheal Pare. I believed this Si Fi movie was pretty good for a Si Fi, not just because of the actor. The experiment has caused some type of Vortex and it must be stopped, this is what you are seeing . the closing act.. Hey Aaron!! did you ever go try and get me a copy of this in English. I been waiting All u tube has is the Italian speaking version..

Im curious if the object I witnessed disappear a few weeks ago might have been using similar technologies as one these described above. It took about a second or two to completely fade out and was distorted in appearance as it continued to disappear. I wonder if there wasnt something on the outside skin of the craft that was maybe "flipped over" and had a mirror or another colored surface that appears to blend in with its surroundings . Whatever it was, it was cool to watch, and kind of freaky .

It's possible. I've read reports from people who claim to have seen UFOs hovering directly over their houses but they said they could see stars on the bottom of them, almost like they were seeing through it. It was like the UFO was projecting the night sky onto the bottom of it to make it appear invisible to anybody looking up.

I only know of this movie, but yet when auntym mentioned Martin Sheen it seems to ring a bell. I do not think Martin was in the above movie.. Aaron and I discussed this on facebook as I put the entire movie on my wall for my daughter to watch. ha all in Italian too. . Aaron said he picked up a old copy for a couple of bucks and he would go back and get another. I have never heard him mention it again. this was about two weeks ago. I was going to put the ninth part on as it was more dramatic than the tenth. Had good photography in it.
You need Steve to answer this .. He is a whiz at all si fi films.

The one I witness was black as coal until the green beam shown on the northside of the porthole. it was dull gray.. So you see in the night sky all triangles appear to be black, but are they? Cliff .. what color was the one you witnessed . did light shine on the bottom of it?

lois this happened not too long after sunset and it was still light out. The color was grey and distorted looking(fuzzy). I watched it for about 10 seconds and noticed that it didnt look right and then it faded out more and more about the last second or two of visibility and then it was gone. I looked around the area it was travelling and could clearly see a jet about the same altitude but this object was nowhere in site. I searched another 5 minutes or so with binoculars but nothing was up there to be found. There was no lights that I could see, but there were 3 dark circular markings on the bottom in a triangular shape . I havent reported this to mufon, and probably wont. This forum is the only place so far that it has been publicly mentioned .

There were two UFO reports of the same two triangle objects on August 21, near where I live. Four witnesses, two at each location in Brentwood, and Discovery Bay, California at nearly the same time, just 2 minutes apart. Two witnesses reported the objects directly due North. The other two witnesses seeing the same objects to the Northeast. Mapping the area, by triangulation, the objects may have been 7 to 8 miles distant from witnesses, or if seen at two sequential times close together, the objects alternate flight path could have brought them as close as 5 miles distant. Using trigonometry based on the witnesses describing the objects the size of half a hand in width at arms length, the objects (two possible triangle shapes) could each have been 700 feet across. All four witnesses, each from their separate locations each described the same color lights, in similar patterns. Each witness separately described the objects becoming invisible after each observing the objects for 2 to 3 minutes. This information was confidentially given to me by an anonymous Mufon FI, who requested my assistance in analysis. Steve

www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/09/24/magnetic-invisibility-cloak_n_979045.html?icid=maing-grid7September 24, 2011 Magnetic Invisibility Cloak Proposed By Scientists VIDEO The power of invisibility may soon be more than just a sci-fi fantasy. Researchers in Spain have developed an 'antimagnet' cloak that could hide objects from magnetic fields, reports ScienceNOW. The new device would make it possible "to ‘switch off’ the magnetic interaction of a magnetic material with existing magnetic fields without modifying them," the researchers wrote in a paper published in the New Journal of Physics. The cloak is only conceptual, but if developed, it could open up a host of new medical possibilities. For one, patients with pacemakers or other magnetic implants would be able to undergo MRIs without harm. The concept could also be applied by the military: Ships using the technology could avoid mines designed to detonate when a magnetic field is detected, according to physorg.com. But magnetic invisibility isn't all a bed of roses. It could potentially assist criminals trying to breach security in airports, embassies and other high threat buildings by making it possible for bombs and other weapons to pass through metal detectors undetected, reports Discovery News.

naturalplane.blogspot.com/Thursday, January 19, 2012 The Montauk Project: Mind Manipulation, Alien Beings and Time Travel [/color] Montauk, N.Y. — like Area 51, written about in Annie Jacobsen’s book Area 51: An Uncensored History of America's Top Secret Military Basehas been the center of an otherworldly conspiracy theory for decades. Believers say that people were kidnapped at a U.S. Air Force base and subjected to mind control and time travel experiments. And extraterrestrials somehow had a hand in it all. It’s been dubbed “The Montauk Project,” and is the subject of an upcoming docu-drama, “Montauk Chronicles,” executive produced, directed and written by independent filmmaker Christopher Garetano. But nobody has been able to actually prove these allegations. And all that’s left of the Montauk facility — currently a state park — are the above-ground remnants of the original Air Force base. According to a document issued by the Air Force Historical Studies office, the Montauk base, known as Camp Hero, was decommissioned in the early 1980s. Montauk is a small seaside resort town on the tip of Long Island that draws vacationers to its shores every year. Camp Hero, located a short distance outside of Montauk, has roots as far back as the Revolutionary War, during which it was used to test military cannons. Later, during World War II, Camp Hero served as a coastal defense installation against any possible Nazi intrusions into America. “Montauk Chronicles” follows the story of three men, Alfred Bielek, Stewart Swerdlow and Preston Nichols, who claim that Camp Hero ended up as an underground site for scientific atrocities. Bielek, a retired electrical engineer, maintains he was part of the mysterious Philadelphia Experiment, where in 1943, the U.S. Navy allegedly tried to make a small destroyer undetectable to radar. The test ended in disastrous results, including the ship disappearing from the Philadelphia Navy yard and — purportedly — traveling through time. The Philadelphia Experiment: Invisibility Time Travel and Mind Control - The Shocking Truth- Al Bielek According to Bielek’s story, he was transported ahead in time from Philadelphia, and extraterrestrials were responsible for the technology used in the Philadelphia Experiment. He also maintains he was recruited in 1970 to work on mind control and time travel projects at the Montauk facility. CONTINUE READING: naturalplane.blogspot.com/

Ok, from what I understand, there is a lot of history from this area, that became involved in "national security". The nazi' are already mentioned.
From the picture above, you can get an idea how big some of their equipment was. I read somewhere that one of the first major radar installations was here, and they had a "super computer", and that both of these might actually have been the beginning of discovering the potential of the "internet".
IDK. Sometimes I think it would be worthwhile to just check into how many such strategic military bases are abandoned. Yes, it's old. But I believe that it WAS kept up to date. . . .
The other "stories" of this place are exceedingly creepy. That again makes me wonder why we now aren't seeing episodes of "ghost hunters" or other paranormal shows highlighting this area. Can they (paranormal shows) get permission to go there?
I believe it was "Nichols" who once put out the story about using a "machine" to tap into the human mind and actually causing "apports" (?) to appear. Someone accidentally brought forward some monster, supposedly. Several years later, I believe, they made this part of the funny plot of the movie "ghost busters" where the main characters were told to empty their minds, and one of them thought of the "stay-puff marshmallow man". In the movie, this marshmallow man was larger than king kong and attacked New York. Kind of odd to me, that they chose New York (again). . .
I also believe, that the Phil. Experiment was tied into this facility much later, just because of the equipment they had. How about the Manhattan Project?
To start finding out any truth on this subject, someone needs to go find out what extent of tunnels are underneath this place.

I remember hearing on tv about something called the Montauk monster. I don't remember what it was though. Is this where it came from. Whatever it was I bet it didn't look like a giant marshmellow man. I love that movie.

www.topsecretwriters.com/2014/06/crazy-claims-alleged-philadelphia-experiment-time-traveler/ The Crazy Claims of Alleged Philadelphia Experiment Time Travelerby Seamus 04 June 2014 Before one discusses the banality of crankmeister Al Bielek, one needs to delve into what inspired his brutal assault on the senses. In so doing, we have to examine one of the biggest conspiracies in pseudo-scientific circles, the so-called “Philadelphia Experiment”, a subject Ryan has covered here previously in a very cool article (check out the photos). www.topsecretwriters.com/2012/09/exploring-the-philadelphia-experiment-in-person/In October of 1943, the USS Eldridge supposedly experimented with cloaking vessels from submarines and reconnaissance planes. The boat not only became cloaked in one experiment, but in another it found itself materializing via teleportation in the Norfolk, Virginia Naval Yard, which is a little over 300 miles away. It then came back to Philly, with the crew’s molecules bonded to the ship in a gruesome fashion, and some poor blokes had vanished. At least, this is according to one Carlos Allende, who had viewed all of this while on the SS Andrew Furuseth. Nevertheless, none of the crew of the Eldridge recalled ever being docked in the city. They were posted in New York at the time. They certainly didn’t recall any freaky experiments either. Allende, the hero of the experiment story is also a dubious source. For starters, his real name is Carl Meredith Allen. In the mid 50s, he began writing a series of letters to UFO author Morris K. Jessup. He claimed he was on a merchant vessel, which was in view of the experiment. Now, this should bug anyone. Why would a merchant ship be allowed to witness an experiment of such magnitude? Furthermore, why would the Navy perform an experiment in a shipyard? With the Axis likely monitoring all manner of naval bases.

www.stumbleupon.com/su/21fas6/?utm_campaign=invisibility_cloak&utm_source=twitter_sup&utm_medium=em_wo&utm_term=ALL&utm_content=ALL Invisibility suits are coming thanks to squid-like displaysby Jon Fingas twitter.com/jonfingas September 15th 2014 It's not as hard to make an invisibility cloak as you might think, but making one that's truly sophisticated is another matter; metamaterials (substances that change the behavior of light) are hard to build. Rice University appears to have solved part of the problem, however. It just developed a squid-like color display (shown below) that should eventually lead to smart camouflage. The new technology uses grids of nanoscopic aluminum rods to both create vivid, finely-tuned colors as well as polarize light. By its lonesome, the invention could lead to very sharp, long-lasting screens. The pixels are about 40 times smaller than those in LCDs, and they won't fade after sustained light exposure. That's just the start, though. Rice eventually hopes to combine its invention with light-sensing tech that changes the colors to match the surroundings. If that happens, you could easily see combat uniforms and vehicles draped in displays that render them almost invisible. That's not going to happen in the near future, but the discovery suggests that the disguises you see in Harry Potter and Predator aren't all that far-fetched.

Found this on FB today. I know nothing about these photos. Just wondered what the big black balloon is. Looks odd to me. . My husband was on a destroyer for four years . Will asked him to take a look at these.
