Sunday night my sister and I sat outside staring at the
stars. Not just because they're beautiful, but I stupidly believed that if I looked at the sky long enough, maybe I would actually see a UFO. I’m a serious Ancient
Aliens fan and I always hear about UFO’s being spotted all across the world, so
why not South Africa right?
Imagine my surprise when I see a bright star moving across
the sky. “Look, a UFO!” I go on ranting all excited and happy. My other family
members rushed outside and saw what I was getting excited about and they simply
rolled their eyes. My brother, who is the voice of logic and reason, mentioned
that it was a satellite. Unwilling to believe him, I did a search online and he
was right. There are like 10 000 satellites in space right now, not to mention
the international space station, which can both look like stars and the latter
tends to flash brightly for a few seconds and then dim again. To make matters
worse, when I returned outside about 10 minutes later, another moving star
moved in the sky, just confirming how regularly you can see a satellite in the sky.
So, where are all the UFO’s? Have you ever seen a UFO?
Hi Murees,
ReplyDeleteI don't blame you for being excited. Space if full of mysteries and you never know what you might see. I"ve never seen a UFO, but I've read stories about them.
I am so intrigued by the unknown and love reading about UFO's too. Thank you for visiting Deanie.
DeleteI've never seen a UFO, and I didn't know about the satellites. I mean, I know they are there, but I didn't know they could be seen.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I didn't either, until my brother told me. Its so disappointing.
DeleteI've never seen a UFO, but I remember that I loved the film E.T. when I was a kid, especially that scene where the kids are literally flying in the sky on their bikes. I think it'd be interesting if there was life on other planets, though I fear that the likes of the Kardashians and pretty much everyone on TLC's reality shows will keep aliens AWAY from our planet.
ReplyDeleteAhaha! Could be. ET was great and Drew Barrymore was so cute. I like the part where ET gets drunk.
Deletelove your procrastination comic from last post - and ufos? i think they just aren't in right now (hee hee) they'll come back around! Men in Black is the best alien movie to me =) but ET is awesome too
ReplyDeleteand several movies give visual comments about all the space crap orbiting earth... we have too much garbage in space too!
Thanks, I couldn't think of any other way to interpret procrastination. Men in Black was great too, the comedy aspect so brilliant and I loved ET too. What can I say, I love me some aliens. Curse the space garbage. Thank you for popping over Tara.
DeleteNope. Never saw one.
ReplyDeleteKeep looking! You never know. :)
Heather
Definitely. I'll keep my eyes open.
DeleteI love looking at the night sky and yeah, those darn satellites are all over. The meteors are my favorite. Ancient aliens, are you a fellow Stargate fan?
ReplyDeleteI loved Stargate, the original series with Richard Dean Anderson and the movies. I was so bummed when it was canceled. Also, thank you for following.
Deletemurees dupe your writings have been interesting always and many times curious...child like curiosity leads to creativity..be curious be caring and keep writing... good luck hope you see UFO:))
ReplyDeleteThank you. I like that I still have some child-like curiosity.
