These are parts of e-mails that some friends of mine sent in a group forum:
______________________________________

At first I thought it was an existing satellite that had come to grief, but in fact it's been tentatively identified as the spent upper stage of an Atlas-Centaur rocket that was making quite a show, jettisoning propellant, above Florida
______________________________________

A launch of an Atlas Centaur 5 rocket was followed by a huge fuel dump.

The results were spectacular - a hazy blob twice the size of Comet Holmes
and about magnitude -1 (!). Through binoculars, it looked a lot like a comet
with a tight nucleus (actually the rocket) and a huge, fan-tailed coma (the
dispersing rocket fuel). It was moving rapidly from Cygus into Cassiopeia
and by 7:45pm or so had just about faded away. But just a little after 7pm
EST this evening, it really produced one of the most amazing spectacles!!!

I knew that no comet was in that area so it couldn't have been an unexpected outburst, and after a few minutes, its apparent motion across the sky became obvious so it was obviously in Earth vicinity.

It was NOT a ufo. its NOT a bunch of aliens, I would suggest NOT falling for things like that.

I've heard one recently that seems interesting
they claim its a Centaur upperstage of an Atlas V rocket delivering a satellite into orbit

he said he saw it with his binoculars

Yes, UFO’s are real and here’s my own opinion. Please take time to read.

Im not talking about unidentified objects like kite or etc. Im referring to UFO's from other planets of another galaxy/civilization that are capable of traveling here on earth using technology that is way more advance that we could imagine.

The bible didn’t mention if there's life out there or none because the Bible is mostly about our relationship with each other and with our faith with God. So there’s a gazillion possibility that there’s life out there, hence the planets in the universe are more than the grains of sand here on earth.

Actually, I call them IFO's now. [alien space-craft] because they are now identified and some of them had crashed on earth and they had been here around 1940's since they were 1st spotted but government & military cover-up is still present claiming UFOs as to be weather balloons or etc.

NOW THATS STUPID. do you think the government can just deny it easily and tell the public that nothing is up there? with millions of people that actually saw it, took pictures and etc?..

WE ARE NOT STUPID.

And yea, don’t forget Feb 24,1942. Remember the 1942 Los Angeles attack?.. Military officials fired at UFO's, it was like a fleetof UFOs . The military claimed it to be UFO's at first. then the next day, it was published in the newspaper that it was a weather balloon.???.Over 1400 rounds of shell cant drop that weather balloon. FTW.. get outta here.:)

And finally, here check the disclosure project. its long but A MUST SEE!!:

in addition, Australia also have their own UFO related stuff.

In conclusion, I think this is the best documentary of UFO’s overall and I recommend this video for skeptics to watch…Its kinda long but very very worth your time.

PS: I also suggest you to do some research about crop circles{“Arecibo reply” is the most important)

Btw, in Nov. 16 1974, The Arecibo message is a radio message that was beamed into space at a ceremony to mark the remodeling of the Arecibo radio telescope. It was aimed at the globular star cluster M13 some 25,000 light years away because it was a large and close collection of stars that was available in the sky at the time and place of the ceremony.

Link : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arecibo_message


And on 2001, there was a crop circle that appeared in a farmland next to the Chilbolton radio telescope; home to the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence Institute (SETI) in Hampshire, UK. It was called the “Arecibo Reply”
