Video of "UFO Crash Over Finland" - does anyone have any idea what this could be?

Smersh · Dec 19, 2008

Condensation trails have been suggested, but they seem too bright to me. Also seems to be moving much too slowly for a meteor or space junk coming down. An aircraft with all its engines on fire? I dunno ... http://www.ufosightingsvideo.com/4.html  <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <h1 style="margin:0pt;font-size:12px">----------------------------------------------------- </h1>Lady Nancy Astor: "Winston, if you were my husband, I'd poison your tea."

Posted by a_lost_packet_</DIV> I dunno.  My first impression was re-entry of some rather large space junk but there's something odd about the "heads" (for lack of a better term) at the leading points of the fire trails.  They seem to fly in a very tight formation. I had have guessed that the one to the side would have slower or deviated from the pack.  Then again if it was space junk vs a meteor perhaps it was hanging together (still one piece) at that moment.  Anyone know the date and time of the taping ?ps - at last, a return to normalcy in the U forum. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> -----------------------------------------------------Ask not what your Forum Software can do do on you,Ask it to, please for the love of all that's Holy, STOP ! </div>

What you are wittnessing is no less than the disturbing footage of Santa and the reindeer crashing in a hellish fireball due to the elves outsourcing maintenance and repairs. No elves could be contacted for comment, and are preparing a statement which should be release by the polar express soon, inside sources point to a number systemic issues, all the result of cost cutting and profiteering of the executive elves at the cost of safety and lives. There also appears to be evidence these practices have been rife, going back as far as the first quarter of 02, when the North Pole started to globalise and lift trade barriers.  Mrs Clause has denied any involvement in the conspiracy and wishes the media to maintain her privacy through this very hard and trying time.  <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> -------------- Let me start out with the standard disclaimer ...

That is obviously the later stages of an al Qaeda anti counter terrorist terrorist mission which has somehow failed to reach orbit. Think “24”, Think keanu Reeves, Think that Arab guy off “Lost”, mix them all together and you start to know the gravity of the situation.  A still shot of this cunning device. <img src="http://sitelife.space.com/ver1.0/Content/images/store/0/11/6037feae-d411-4627-9bb3-8f6e89c6ffff.Medium.jpg" alt="" /> And don’t be fooled by these skilled and highly trained solders, they ARE human, and prone to same the mistakes as you and i.   <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> -------------- Let me start out with the standard disclaimer ...

It's a few years old video. I'm not quite sure what the conclusion was, but I suspect it was a spent upper stage returning home to Plesetsk, Northern Russia, where they launch satellites for high inclination orbits.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plesetsk_Cosmodrome

The setting sun exaggerating the actual trails.near the bottom or point of the vapour trails you can see the running lights of an aircraft....but heck I;m always wrong - could be rentry of blown up rocket that they had to take care of..... <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

BoJangles · Dec 20, 2008

I agree, what ever it is, its got 2 of something, lots of fuel and falling fast though not at meteor velocity. My initial vote is for a failed rocket of some description, the object looks small compared to the fiery trail. But if you really look closely it kind of resembles a twin engine jet, heading away from you at an angle into the ground, see how you go with it, i'm not sure if i'm imagining things? though if that was the case it must have been fully loaded and fairly high. what is strange is you don't see any debris flying off, well not with the resolution anyway <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> -------------- Let me start out with the standard disclaimer ...

SLOW6 · Dec 21, 2008

its seems funny to me that a UFO would first of all have either blazing jets of fire OR the fact that the thing or being navigating the object can master interstellar space travel and yet somehow crash to Earth? Whats next, They CANT open DOORS?

Replying to: <DIV CLASS='Discussion_PostQuote'>It is not contrails since the length of the bright streaks remains constant. Posted by DrRocket</DIV> That by itself is not a useful indicator if it's contrails or not. If you watch a jet flying up there, unless the humidity changes within the layer it is flying in, the contrails will evaporate at a constant rate, hence stay the same length assuming the speed is constant (which it usually is for an aircraft at cruising altitude). That can range from a few degrees to more than 60 degrees with constant lengths. In fact, from my considerable observations, it is far more common that the length stays the same than it is for the length to change.I see that all the time.MW <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> But the Krell forgot one thing John.

Posted by DrRocket</DIV> Not really that prominnant, but constant length is more or less normal; changing length implies variable humidity is a constant layer, or a change in altitude passing through different layers.Also notice that behind the main bright trails, you can see a few thin smoke trails illuminated by the setting (or rising)sun. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> But the Krell forgot one thing John.
