US forces deny knowledge of mystery missile
#31
Whatever it is or was, it's a good exercise in critical information search, evaluation and analysis... like the crossword puzzle in the daily paper on steroids. We seem to be immersed in them. We have the oldies, the historical events, and we have the emerging political world, the soundbites. This is reminiscent of the spiraling whatever-it-was way up north in concert with Obama's prize. I'm still wondering what the X-37 is. When I was a youngster, we used to wonder what Sputnik was all about. (Is it still up there?)

Photo of Mysterious Missile Launch Over Newfoundland, Government Calls the Incident, Unexplained

November 11, 2010

Canadian government can't explain photos of missiles launched from sea near Newfoundland
[Image: Mystery-Missile-Sighted-in-Canada1.png]
Kind of hard to explain this photo of unexplained missile sighting in New Foundland as a ‘jet contrail’
Update: The incident in Newfoundland occurred at the end of January. We posted this story because we believe it’s relevant to the two incidents which occurred earlier this week, the California ‘missile’ story and the New York ‘Fire in the Sky’ report from New York City. Those incidents occurred within less than 24 hours. Both incidents dubbed ‘jet contrails’. The Newfoundland incident dubbed ‘unexplained’.
We put this story in an update on a recent post of a news helicopter video shot in the skies of Manhattan the morning after the mysterious missile video was shot in southern California. The Manhattan news report dubbed by the press, “Fire in the Sky’, the report from CBS 2 News, an ‘unnamed top astronomer’ said the object was a jet contrail. The same official explanation from the Pentagon, the mystery ‘missile’ in southern California, ‘most likely’ a jet contrail. Also in our post, a news report from Canada’s CTV, NASA was investigating mysterious ‘fire balls’ sighted over Canada and the U.S..
Based on the above photo, it’d be a pretty hard sell the object, one of three sighted by two women in Newfoundland, was a jet contrail. The news report from CTV, extraordinary.
CTV:
No one seems to know what two neighbors saw off the coast of Newfoundland earlier this week, but the two are convinced three large bullet-like objects were missiles. And they have photos they say prove it.
It all began around 5 p.m. Monday when Darlene Stewart of Harbour Mille, N.L., was outside snapping photos of a sunset, when she saw a long, thin glimmering object in the sky that appeared as if it came out of water.
The photos she took show a thin object shooting into the air, with a tail of fire and smoke.
She called her neighbour Emmy Pardy, who went to get binoculars for a closer look.
“I went out on the patio and I zoomed in and I saw a humungous bullet, silver-grey in colour and it had flames coming out of the bottom and a trail of smoke,” Pardy told CTV.ca.
“I said to Darlene my God, this looks like it’s a missile or something.”
Stewart and Pardy said the objects were visible in the sky for about 15 minutes.
The women say they watched in fear and thought that a missile could be heading their way.
“I was sick to my stomach,” Stewart said. “If it was a missile, what goes up does come down, but where is it going to land?”
“If I hadn’t taken the pictures, they’d figure it was just another UFO sighting.”
Darlene was partially right, if she hadn’t taken the photos, they (the government) wouldn’t have had to respond to the media ‘firestorm’ which erupted after Darlene’s photos were viewed. Photos which included a clear shot of what seems to be a missile. The response from the government:
A spokesman for the Canadian Forces said they there have been no planned missile exercises off the seaboard.
“There’s no threat to the security of Canada,” Maj. Jason Proulx said from Ottawa.
Dimitri Soudas, a spokesman for Prime Minister Stephen Harper, said in an email that “there is no indication that there was ever a rocket launch.”
Gerry Byrne, the MP for Humber-St. Barbe-Baie Verte, is demanding to know if the objects were, in fact, missiles.
He wants to know whether the government knew about it and failed to inform residents, or was simply not told.
“The RCMP provided an initial report that it was some sort of rocketry that initiated from France,” he said.
“They subsequently retracted that story.”
Does part of the quote seem familiar? It should, as immediately after the footage of the California mystery missile footage was aired on KCBS News, citizens of the U.S. were told by NORAD, ‘There’s not threat to the U.S.’ while the Pentagon scrambled for 36 hours to come up with, ‘it’s most likely a jet contrail’. Case closed, end of media story. By November 11, two days after the southern California incident, the day New York City’s CBS 2 aired their ‘Fire in the Sky’ report–footage of an object streaking across the Manhattan skyline at dawn, less than 24 hours after the California ‘missile’ incident–CBS News 2 contacted an ‘unnamed top astronomer’ to get the official verdict of ‘jet contrail!’.
CBS News 2:
‘CBS 2 reached out to a top astronomer who looked at the video. He said it looks beautiful, but that is was like nothing more than what’s known as a “contrail” — condensation from a commercial or military jet.’
Back to the missile story out of Canada.
According to the report, the Newfoundland government initially claimed the missiles were fired from territory owned by the French:
Liberal Sen. George Baker said that the direction of the objects suggests a launch from nearby St-Pierre-Miquelon, which is French territory.
If true, Baker said such a launch could contravene international sovereignty rules. He added that Ottawa should be treating the situation seriously.
“Knowing that France has territory within our 200 mile (320 kilometre) zone in Canada, they should at least ask the French, ‘Look, are you launching these missiles?’ Because if they are, (and) everybody is denying knowledge of it, then the laws have been broken.”
Agence France Presse reported that France fired a missile on Wednesday – not Monday – and it was launched from Bay of Audierne in Northwestern France.
In a statement, the French Defence Ministry said the missile was fired from the submarine “Le Terrible.”
The report the government ‘retracted’ their France claim then dubbed the incident….. ‘unexplained’. An incident which happened to occur in area of a ‘major flyway for transatlantic aircraft’.
Some of the comments on the CTV missile report:
Bill in BC
What a load of excrement. Compare this to pictures of meteorites and you have the answer. Yet another tempest in the teapot.
…..
Marty
Meteors usually don’t ascend into the sky.
Christine Sudbury
I would think that a meteorite would be heading toward earth, not away.
Philip in Newfoundland
To bill in BC.what are the chances of three meteroites coming into the Earth’s atmosphere, all at the same time and all in the same place? I would say very slim. Get your facts straight.
……
Jane from Ottawa
I live just outside Ottawa, Ontario and on my way home the other day I thought I saw a missile in the sky but then I thought it can’t be. Why would there be a missile in the sky? I couldn’t tell for sure because it was far away but there was something very strange about the jet stream – it was way too thick. But now this story and I wonder… so what’s a missile doing over Canada? I want to know.
We’d like to know too.

Really interesting. Pity there is no available pictures or footage of the Chinese sub that popped up seemingly out of nowhere. The US warships would certainly have taken images of it.

Would a really cynical and suspicious person be excused for contemplating the possibility that, as in the cold war, the Pentagon might just be upping the ante to gain more naval funding in the future?

Silly thought. The Pentagon's far too honest for that. Besides they've already all the $900 hammers they'll ever need....
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
