mooeypoo Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 If we know what it is, doesn't that make it an identified object, and hence not a UFO ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphus Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 That's a funny way of putting it. But yeah, I guess they're declining to identify the flying object they're developing. Standard practice for military aircraft, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJBruce Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Nothing out of the usual. Military test planes are often sighted and believed to be UFO's by the public. The Chinese government will probably just ignore the media surrounding this, and let it die down. Maybe one day they will eventually acknowledge that the sighting was probably just a military test, just as the US did with their OXCART program. And the quintessential Area 51 conspiracy--that the Pentagon keeps captured alien spacecraft there, which they fly around in restricted airspace? Turns out that one's pretty easy to debunk. The shape of OXCART was unprece-dented, with its wide, disk-like fuselage designed to carry vast quantities of fuel. Commercial pilots cruising over Nevada at dusk would look up and see the bottom of OXCART whiz by at 2,000-plus mph. The aircraft's tita-nium body, moving as fast as a bullet, would reflect the sun's rays in a way that could make anyone think, UFO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
