I Think I Might Have Just Thought Of What Orbs May Be..

www.youtube.com...

video. like I said I dunno but this video is crazy how can that be dust or ice, or the sudden change in direction from some of the orbs. thay are moving.

reply to post by TylerHunn


There are no sudden changes of direction on that video, and most objects do not change direction.

This is one of those cases in which I think what the OP said does not apply, because these are not real orbs, they are the result of the way the lens work. Anyone that wares glasses can see orbs like those, they just have to spray their glasses with water.

I thought about this before. The problem always comes with, how do you prove it?

You can only wait and hold that thought and someday it might help you understand the rest. The fun thing is the internet speeds that process so much.

And for thoses in this thread who are not understanding, it's the orb phenomenon he's talking about. It is by definition a ufo but may or may not be related to other UFO phenomenons. Just orbs that seem under "intelligent" control.

See this youtube channel for start - Scroll down and look left, thats the list of orb phenomenon youtubers.SeeingUFOsPA's youtube channel

If you look at all her videos, it's really hard to doubt her, she posts like a video a week observing them.

Brilliantly lit orbed Foofighter's are definitly multi-colored, multitasker's; capable of fantastic speeds with overwhelming firepower.

According to my own experience, and other witness'es - The approx. size of an lighted orbed Foofighter, can be basketball in size [possible unmaned probes,] to a Foofighter encased in fiery red plasma, controlled by a magnetic shield of up to 1,000 feet in diameter.

My speculation is that a Foofighter needs to generate it's own lighted photon plasma at nightime to fuel its light starved black hole dust plate which is attracted to light, thus pulling the starship with it; or gobbling up the light photon plasma and spewing it out to generate tremendous thrust.

The bluish-white light phase: Is the high powered thrust phase.

The greenish or red-orange plasma phase of the Foofighter: Is the landing phase intending to clear away obstruction's; or as a defensive, or offensive weapon capable of tremendous destruction.

The lighted Foofighter's, are probably ET's own version of "shock and awe."

Sorry, I didn't mean to divert from the original theme of orb "UFO's".....I just find the topic of 'orbs' to be quite fascinating. There is so much that we don't understand and it's interesting to hear about other people's experiences.
Since we really can't prove what they are (at this point in time)....it's fun to explore.....and maybe one day we will have an explanation. Until then I remain open-minded and curious!

I haven't seen all, but those that I have seen look like aeroplanes, so I don't think this should be used as a good example of what a "orb" looks like.

Unfortunately, many people just film an out of focus light and say "that's an orb". I don't know if they do it on purpose or because they believe that the camera is showing the real shape of what they see, but the fact is that they do not bring any credibility to the topic.

They are aircraft.

Here is a thread about her delusions:

The Dishonesty & Danger Inherent In The seeingUFOsPA Hoax

Not only do we doubt her, the owner of ATS has asked to be notified if anyone is posting her stuff so it can be moved to the "HOAX!" forum:

www.abovetopsecret.com...

Thanks for the heads up zaiger. I had no idea this bollocks was making its way to ATS.

If someone will u2u me links to the existing threads with her videos in them I'll move them to the HOAX forum (I've already moved the one Maybe Maybe Not linked here to the HOAX forum).

Also, if you see new threads starting with her videos, alert me and I'll move them as well.

Springer...

Now, is it still "really hard to doubt her"?

If you are trying to convince anyone that orbs are anything other than dust and such, you're not helping that cause.

Anyone heard of the Mt. Ortorten incident? The red orbs were reported in the area around the time 9 people were mysteriously killed.

Do you mean the Dyatlov Pass incident?

There are many threads about it, you can discuss it from a paranormal point of view (The Mystery of the Dyatlov Pass Incident), an Aliens & UFOs point of view (Death caused by a "compelling unknown force" - Dyatlov Pass Incident) or a more general point of view (The Frightening, Unsolved and Disturbing Incident of Nine Dead Skiers).

Something I've been hands on studying for years now. I don't think they are what we call "technology" at all, I think they are as natural as a solar flare. I also think they come from the sun to be honest. I have seen countless pictures and videos of these things on almost all forms of filters on cameras. They seem to move in the direction of a "wind" coming from somewhere, I think solar winds.

I have 1000 pictures of orbs, in my house, outside of it, and even hanging around my butt.... they seem to like my rear end for some reason. I can almost predict and/or control where they appear in some pictures.

Some people have told me these are souls, some say conscious beings, some say dust particles, but I can say that dust is definitely ruled out as the cause. Perhaps these are souls wandering around without a body to inhabit? There are 1000s of these in any area at almost any time viewed from the right camera conditions. They are fascinating.

I saw a video once that interviewed a black man who could pretty much summon these things. That is one of the reasons I consider it to be connected with a intelligent source.

I defy anybody to post a picture of an "orb" that was taken with a film camera .

Check around on you tube, they are out there, I am not looking anything up for you when you take that tone.

What we call orb like ufos are actually different phenomena.
From dust particles caught on film to lens reflections to maybe aerial natural phenomena to unknown objects.
What the OP is referring to is obviously the ones supposedly witnessed by humans not simply caught on still pictures.
OP, is those kinda objects were indeed people undergoing OBEs that could be scientifically provable.
Except OBEs themselves are yet to be proven real. I wonder none of these 'obe masters' have ever successfully filmed himself or shown himself in their obe form.

Pretty sure this isnt a near lens reflection and taken by one of our own members here, watch full 1080p and full screen so u can clearly see whats going on. For any one that cares to watch

That looks more like internal lens reflections of the light he's aiming at, aka lens flares.

Many cameras have internal lens elements like this, and the surface of each element of the lens can cause a reflection:

It's also common to put a bluish coating on the lens elements to try to reduce the reflections, but you can't really get them to go away completely, especially when you aim the camera at a bright light.

In the latest "Star Trek" movie, they intentionally created such "orbs" via the lens flare mechanism, as seen here:

I thought it was just annoyingly bad photography until I read that they did it on purpose.

Hello Jibby!
Would you mind to post any of these images or footage you have?
Could be interesting to see them.

I think also as the Op said, something important is happening in sky!

SNC.

That's right, that doesn't look like dust near the lens, but as it is out of focus it could be anything.

As another poster said, there's probably more than one cause. But a lot of them certainly are dust, what makes you believe your avatar isn't dust?

Here's some dust:

www.dailymail.co.uk...

Magnified 22million times, this microscopic photo is of household dust containing long hairs such as cat fur, twisted synthetic and woollen fibres, a pollen grain, plant, serrated insect scales and insect remains.

Yours looks like it could be just one fiber, and out of focus. You can't rule out that it's dust, can you?

Hmmmph! How do you know YOUR avatar isn't just "dust"???

Aren't we ALL just dust, in essence?



"I close my eyes Only for a moment and the moment's gone
All my dreams Pass before my eyes in curiosity

Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind

Same old song Just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do Crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see

Dust in the wind All we are is dust in the wind

Now don't hang on Nothing lasts forever but the Earth and Sky
It slips away And all your money won't another minute buy

Dust in the wind All we are is dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind Dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind"

Dust in the wind lyrics by Kansas

l ve always thought the same as some people here, that these orbs are what we call souls.

What?

When did I or anyone else ever say that my avatar doesn't show dust?

en.wikipedia.org...

These columns––which resemble stalagmites protruding from the floor of a cavern––are composed of interstellar hydrogen gas and dust

Yes...dust.
