1500 years ago :strange sights in the skies.

Friday, August 28, 2009

It has a history way back to pyramid's and i am sure it will new challenge's to mankind's lust for E.T

But although there is a lot of current interest and alleged sightings, the phenomenon is by no means a new one. Throughout history strange objects and lights have appeared in the sky. The video 'UFOs: The Hidden Truth' makes these observations:

  • 1500 years ago the ancient Egyptians recorded strange sights in the skies.

  • Both Greek and Roman literature have references to 'fiery shields' in the sky.

  • In the year 323 B.C. Alexander the great and his army were harassed by 2 unidentified flying objects. Most of the men fled, although some of the more courageous ones stood their ground and tried to fight them and hit them with their bow and arrows.

  • In 1492, just hours before Christopher Columbus discovered land, it is recorded that he witnessed a bright flying object flying from the sky into the water and then exiting to return to the sky again.

In addition to the historical record there is also the testimony of many seemingly reliable witnesses. For example:

  • Edmund Haley, of Haleys Comet fame, watched a light in the night sky that was so bright that it lit up the sky so brightly that he could even read a text by it.

  • In WWII British aeroplanes flying over Germany encountered strange lights in the sky and thought that they were a new breed of enemy aircraft and nicknamed them 'Foo Fighters'.

  • American presidents Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagen have spoken of seeing UFOs.

And the list goes on: astronauts, radar specialists, policemen, FBI agents. Are we really to believe that all these people are actually liars? I don't think that it is really fair to say that all of these people are lying. However, about 90 percent of the reported sightings can be explained without seeing little green men around every corner. But we are still left with a percentage that remain as a mystery.
