that thing is an old 'joke'...and the spelling in the intro to that video clip is just horrible.

-you'll have to do better than that, nasa.

well..i know you have "better".

it is well known that lenticular craft are superior to conventional air craft, in all respects...but come on.

the only reason that the design was shelved is that by making "the shape" a known quantity, you break down your own boogyman.

-fail.

your time is almost over.

I'm not a hundred percent sure, but I think I'm supposed to make some sort of tin foil hat comment here.

The same is true of strawberry jam, which is superior to even blueberry jam, in all respects.

agreed.

See that throng?



That's the Citizens For Boysenberry Jam marching on your house right now.

/big fan

SherKhan: See that throng?

That throng th-throng throng throng?

/sorry

Boysenberry? Ha!

Not even boysenberry jam can compare to the sheer tastiness of strawberry jam!

Oh man! I hope someone says "streetlight" cause that that'll be hilarious!!

Who the hell edited the text in that video..Borat? That's a good minute of my life I'll never get back.

I agree with Bauer: Fail

The USAF has known a lot more than they are letting on about UFOs for a very long time.

That same photo was used on a History Channel show 2 weeks ago. I was tired so my memory may be a little off but the jist of it was this.

The Airforce and Army made several "flying disks" back in the 50's and 60's. The army version was to be a hovering disk in the role of the jeep.

The Airforce built that disk and found that it wasnt very agile and had problems with lift. The eventually scrapped the programs.

tl;dr: Real photo of a test plane.

Is the USAF testing its own Flying Saucer streetlight? Here comes the photographic "evidence"

/FTFY

I'm just glad the "All your base" copy writer found another gig.

Did anyone say "streetlight" yet..?

/I'm probably the lst

Which explains why they've all been dismal failures.

UFOs are real. The Air Force doesn't exist.

uncoveror: The USAF has known a lot more than they are letting on about UFOs for a very long time.

Well, sure, if you throw the NRL and Naval Weapons in there: that's a joint project. That way you can spread the invisible funding a bit. It's horrifyingly expensive to build one.

FTA: What people didn't know was that the pictures were faked. They were created by Michael H. Schratt to "illustrate" what he "believed" were craft that probably did exist.


Psy-eeck?

I'm lemon lurd and I'm here to assert my superiority to your cute little "jams."

Stolen technology.

You'd think that if a "flying saucer" was a workable, practical design for an aircraft, we'd have done it. I mean, it's just a round airplane. How is that that much harder to build?

Maybe the data we got out of the spaceship that crashed in Roswell that would have explained flying saucer design to us got corrupted or lost, though.

Lemon lurd! Awesome.

Thong, SherKhan? You must be aces at "Where's Waldo?"


The tail fin on that saucer craft in the vid looks like it came off an YB-49.

You're all wrong. Marionberry is the money jam.

Screw y´all, Huckleberry Jam FTW! Citizens of the Rocky Mountains know whassup! It´s a good India Pale Ale compared to that Miller-Light swill Blueberry Jam. It´s like sunshine and crackberries having sex in your mouth.

/And not the telephone, neither

Of course they've been trying. A circle is easier to hide under a radar ceiling, for example. Whether its feasibly or nearing production is an entirely different question.

I call photoshop!

Its a pie pan.

Awwwzzz Yeah. Montana is the ancestral home, and every time I go back to visit the extended family, I make sure to load up on the Huckleberry jam.

/Eva Gates FTW!

I simply can not take the existence of extraterrestrial UFOs seriously.

Über-advanced aliens come to the Earth to give free prostate exams to hickle-billies? That's absurd!



Aliums? Come on now, ya whack-jobs. Clearly, this is some sort of joint black-operation by the Department of Health and the makers of Flomax.

my grandfather was a navy test pilot after WWII, and he's told me that he flew planes that were damn near circular...

ancient history...

and yes, "UFOs" are real.

from ufo to jam, this is a great thread.

Sarcasticus: RASPBERRY!

The seeds get stuck in your teeth. Besides, those are better fresh, ideally as nipple covers in a hottie sundae. I prefer my fruit to be a yonic representation of the female clitoris, preferrably in a color of royalty, not the color of blood.

/Don´t get me started on Asparagus

It's a fake!

I like the top photo and the Flintstones school of motorised transport.

The air force has been experimenting with saucer shaped craft for many years. One of them is proudly displayed, mounted on poles at either Andrews or Langley. (I can't recall which)

From what I have heard, the displayed craft never did much and was abandoned in this "graveyard" of experimental craft. None of them are secret or anything. They are publicly displayed It is not in a secure area.

Everyone knows that the Airforce started going through stargates before they built spaceships, but their spaceships aren't flying saucers and they still seem to prefer stargates to ships except in the Pegasus galaxy where they need ships because most of the stargates are actually in space orbiting planets instead of actually on the planets themselves.

/Hey, I didn't see anyone make a Stargate reference yet.

darth_nick23: from ufo to jam, this is a great thread.

Only LONE STAR would dare give me the Raspberry!

Bauer: lenticular

I hate that word. It sounds to me like its definition should be, "of, or pertaining to, the imparting of cootchie-coos during the 40 days preceding Easter."

Certainly using it in a general sense to mean lens-shaped is a tad bit weird. Using it to describe dynamic properties of lenses (e.g., lenticular traffic lights who's glow can't be seen unless you are at a certain angle of incident relative to the light refracted by a set of lenses in front of the lighting element) is one thing, but using it in place of "lens-shaped" is hypercorrect (i.e., a formal-sounding yet wrong).

Sarcasticus:RASPBERRY!

There's only one man who would dare give me the raspberry...

Looks like many forgot to click on "athentic pictures" at the end of the article (that link reveals the truth), or understood what the article was all about.

Just more proof that conspiracy theorists are nothing more than opportunistc profiteers able to sell books and videos to a whole hoard of gullible and stupid people.

That said, I'd prefer they stick to dumb conspiracies about the fake moon landing, area 51 or Elvis than the ridiculous notions about " One World Government ", The Illuminati, Carslyle Group or foolish conspiracies about 9-11
