Salut les gars,
Attention : Nous ne parlons pas d'un cas mais de deux !
Les PL sont bien des fusées éclairantes (Luu-2b appellées Illuminating flares en anglais) et leur vitesse verticale est lente car elles sont munies de petits parachutes, ceci est démontré par Brumac :
http://brumac.8k.com/phoenixlights1.html
Ce qui a été confirmé par l'USAF. (et même le pilote concerné) :
The USAF explained that the A-10 had released the flares at about 6,000 feet and that the flares had ignited at around 3,000 feet. They completely burnt out at around 500 feet. Airforce pilot, Lt. Col. Ed Jones, came forward in early 2007 claiming responsibility for the drop of leftover flares on the night in question,[12] and claims to be a pilot of one of the four A10s in the squadron that he says launched the flares

Quand au fait que les lumières aient paru statique, encore une fois, la grande distance qui séparait l'observateur du lieux de chute
de ces flares ne permet pas à l'oeil nu de se rendre compte de la faible vitesse angulaire de déplacement de ces lumières.
Plus c'est loin et plus la vitesse angulaire apparente est faible.
Sans une analyse poussée comme celle effectuée par Brumac, il aurait été impossible de démontrer que ces lumières descendaient...
Certains ont aussi parlé du fait qu'aucune fumée n'était visible, une explication par un professionnel :
VISIBLE CONSTRUCTS
Both the parachute and the smoke generated from flare combustion can often be visible when observing a flare drop. This characteristic proved to be the most inconsistent variable in our analysis. This is due to the multitude of variables that can affect the visibility in this regard. We identified some of the main variables to include weather, surface lighting, light pollution, distance, altitude, camera type, camera settings, Moon phase, Moon position and time of day.
Donc selon les conditions météo + distance + pollution lumineuse + altitude + type de caméra + position de la Lune + phase Lunaire, elles peuvent ne pas être visible. J’ai par ailleurs aussi constaté ce fait sur plus d’une vidéo de soit-disant UFO…même chose pour les feux éclat ou clignotants des aérodynes, ils ne sont pas tout le temps visibles suivant les conditions.
Voilà pour les fumeuses lumières situées et filmées à l'Ouest de Phoenix et au-dessus de la
Sierra v et qui ont fait le
tour du monde...

A ne pas confondre avec une deuxième observation ce soir-là, celle du "V", dont le Dr Greer dit avoir communiqué avec par télépathie alors qu'il approchait de Phoenix en avion (si si, naaaaa, SI SI, c'est vrai

)
Concernant le V :
“Lights of varying descriptions were seen by thousands of people between 19:30 and 22:30 MST, in a space of about 300 miles, from the Nevada line, through Phoenix, to the edge of Tucson. There were two distinct events involved in the incident: a triangular formation of lights seen to pass over the state, and a series of stationary lights seen in the Phoenix area.
The first event — the “vee,” which appeared over northern Arizona and gradually traveled south over nearly the entire length of the state, eventually passing south of Tucson — was the allegedly “wedge-shaped” object reported by then-Governor Symington and many others. This event started at about 8:15 over the Prescott area, and was seen south of Tucson by about 8:45. The second event was the set of nine lights falling behind the Sierra Estrella, a mountain ridge to the southwest of Phoenix, at around 10pm. This was also observed by numerous people who may have thought they were seeing the same lights as those reported earlier.

Donc le “triangle” pour certains ou lumières en formation en V pour d'autres ont commencé avant et se sont terminées (observations) après l’épisode des PL qui lui a eu lieu vers 22h00 HL.
Ceci dit, plusieurs avions de chasse en vol en formation en V pourraient quand à eux mieux rendre compte de ce type d’observation, je cite un des témoins & ancien pilote de l’USAF (à savoir que son témoignage a été ignoré par les investigateurs du MUFON & NUFORC mais qui manque de détails (heure précise, azimuth, hauteur angulaire, durée, etc… seul le sens de déplacement N-S est précisé) :
“The first witness was a man named Rich Contry who was driving west that evening on I-40 north of Prescott. His statement was in the March Postings of the Area 51 message boards and is completely ignored by the investigators. The date of his e-mail is 17 March and he states,
I was on my way from Flagstaff to Laughin Thursday when I saw the light formation reported on the radio the other night. I’m a pilot and was in the u.s. air force 4 years. Being in the mountains on highway 40, the night was clear and still. As the formation came towards me I stopped my car and got out with my binocs to check out what this was. As it came towards me, I saw 5 aircraft with there running lights (red and green) and the landing lights (white) on. They were also flying fairly slow and in the delta formation. As they went over me I could see stars going between the aircraft so it could not have been one large ship. The flying was like that of the Blue Angels or the thunderbirds demo team. Also as they went buy their jets were not very loud because of the low throttle setting for flying slow but I did hear the jets as they went away towards the south.(Contry)”
Un autre témoignage provenant d’un astronome amateur est très intéressant mais manque de détails (heure, azimuth précis, hauteur angulaire, etc…) :
“Mitch Stanley, 21, spends several nights a week in his backyard with a 10-inch telescope, exploring the night sky. He’s owned the telescope for about a year, and has learned the sky well. With its 10-inch mirror, the telescope gathers 1,500 times as much light as the human eye. And with the eyepiece Stanley was using on the night of March 13, the telescope gave him 60 times the resolving power of his naked eye.
That night Mitch and his mother, Linda, were in the backyard and noticed the lights coming from the north. Since the lights seemed to be moving so slowly, Mitch attempted to capture them in the scope. He succeeded, and the leading three lights fit in his field of vision. Linda asked what they were. “Planes,” Mitch said.
It was plain to see, he says. What looked like individual lights to the naked eye actually split into two under the resolving power of the telescope. The lights were located on the undersides of squarish wings, Mitch says. And the planes themselves seemed small, like light private planes.
Stanley watched them for about a minute, and then turned away. It was the last thing the amateur astronomer wanted to look at. “They were just planes, I didn’t want to look at them,” Stanley says when he’s asked why he didn’t stare at them longer. He is certain about what he saw: “They were planes. There’s no way I could have mistaken that.”
Tout cela pour dire, qu'il y a une multitude de témoignages répartis sur une zone de 300 miles et sur 3 heures. Mais à mon sens, l'expliquation qui convient le mieux aux observations du "V" est celle d’avions en vol en formation en V avec leurs phares d’atterrissage enclenchés mais le fait que les observations soient réparties sur une telle distance & durée, font que je n'arrive pas à tout expliquer par manque de données/informations et de recherches (et de motivation), même si je penche pour une méprise à la PAF "style"...
Quand à Jim Dilettoso (le
magicien charlatan de Village Labs), il a "réussi" (dans sa tête) à démontrer que les lumières de Phoenix (les leurres thermiques dont j'a parlé en premier) n'étaient pas de conception humaine via une analyse spectrale des photos & vidéos. Donc, cet homme a non seulement apporté la preuve (dans sa tête) que les ET nous visitent mais en plus, il a révolutionné les méthodes & outils utilisés par les scientifiques, via un logiciel révolutionnaire (Image Plus pro) dont la version est top-secrète. Ce logiciel permet selon lui de procéder à une analyse spectrale via des photos & vidéos. Bien entendu, de vrais spécialistes lui ont dit de retourner chez sa mère...
Le pire, c'est qu'il ne l'a même pas commercialisé (si seulement cela pouvait fonctionner, bien entendu) :
UFO advocate Jim Dilettoso claimed to have performed "spectral analysis" of photographs and video imagery that proved the lights could not have been produced by a man-made source. Dilettoso claimed to have used software called "Image Pro Plus" (exact version unknown) to determine the amount of red, green and blue in the various photographic and video images and construct histograms of the data, which were then compared to several photographs known to be of flares. Several sources have pointed out, however, that it is impossible to determine the spectral signature of a light source based solely on photographic or video imagery, as film and electronics inherently alter the spectral signature of a light source by shifting hue in the visible spectrum, and experts in spectroscopy have dismissed his claims as being scientifically invalid.[15][16] Normal photographic equipment also eliminates light outside the visible spectrum (e.g., infrared and ultraviolet) that would be necessary for a complete spectral analysis. The maker of "Image Pro Plus", Media Cybernetic, has stated that its software is incapable of performing spectroscopic analysis.[15]
Entre le Dr Greer et son contact télépathique et ce génie de Dilettoso non reconnu, voilà une belle histoire bien folklorique et bien Américaine, vue son ampleur & surmédiatisation US & Internationale.
