Just a short clip but pretty neat at 49 seconds. Sure, it could have been faked but this looks just like what many of us have seen ourselves.
This thing is really, really, moving.
Makes the distance to Mars not seem so far:) Anyone help with embedding?

Viking, split those clouds. I've done it many times. You can clear out a space within the clouds with your mind. It works. :yes4:

Ha Ha ... Just like Moses parting the sea!!
Well it has been clear these few days or so...
Anyway a bit disapointed at the moment...I'll persevere...the problem is with these goggles you are looking at such a small space in the sky as the picture frame in very small...also you have to crank your neck up fully as your line of vision is seen from the goggles...which is bloody tiring!!! normally you just move your eyes around at a much larger space...so in a way its easier to spot...with the picture frame moving around it is also difficult to notice any movement with the critters (ships?) so anyway I have worked out the best way is to sit down lean back and think of England!! ha ha ... seriously this is far easier...one thing I will say with the goggles is that the amount of stars/planets is ten fold with the goggles...amazing!! Also once you log onto one of the critters you can trace it much more easily...no dog fights yet and no triangular critters...early days yet...so I'll keep you posted...
As for the GFL no luck yet!!!! ha ha

Trouble with night vision is it is easy to fake. Try it .all you need is a red laser pen then move it about .just make sure you do not catch the beam. End result dot in the sky similar to the video. Ok not all are fake but if I can do it anyone can.

The dot would have to have a background to lock on to... so that wouldn't work...the dot wouldn't just float around in the sky!!

Anyone else purchase night vision equipment, I've thought of jumping on this but its kind of pricey and I don't want to be disappointed, they probably can be faked, that's why you need to do it on your own.

You can get them now for a few hundred pounds!! Mine are generation 1-2... Gen 3 would give yoiu just a sharper image if yiou are out hunting at night... ect etc
For what you would use then for Gen 1-2 is ok...

Hi Viking no need to apologise :) thanks for the response I think i will add a pair to my christmas list to father christmas!! lol
I bet it's great fun too!! problem is I think if i was to get a pair I would be out all night!! I saw a fantastic UFO with the naked eye fly over me last night it was so fast it left some kind of energy vortex trailing the craft, it was gone in a blink of an eye but it left me buzzing. Was definatly my best ufo sighting to date.
£200 is abit out of my price range but fingers crossed I may get a pair would be great.
Cheers,
Scott
