Triangulation

I have been asked a number of times why the Phoenix lights cannot be configured by using math, that is to say, take several different witness statements, determine their position, the craft size and distance from witness positions, and so forth. Here is the reason why.

The biggest problem is that during the first major flap there in '97, there were flares dropped after 9:00 PM, although there had been sightings as early as 6:00 PM. Luke AFB at first said they did NOT drop any flares that night, but then later recalled that another base had sent an exercise over the Phoenix area that night. Well, for those who already had their minds made up as soon as they heard that flares were dropped that night, the case was closed, and no amount of math will every change their mind.

Another problem with triangulation is that from the many eyewitness accounts, it is quite obvious that the object or objects flew haphazardly across the state, which means that it was different distances away from different witnesses at different times. To complicate matters, it is highly likely that more than one craft was in operation at any give time. Also, as word circulated about the sightings, more and more folks went outside to take a look, and as you probably know, imagination took over many of them, and all types of reports were made, and it is almost impossible to know who saw what and when.

I have seen and heard just about everything that has been shown and told about the lights, and it is my conclusion based on the preponderance of the evidence that flares did account for some of the sightings, but common sense will tell you that since reports were made far in advance of the flare exercise, the flares cannot explain all of the sightings and photographs. Also, there have many very intriguing photos and video taken over Phoenix on nights there were no flares.

I even went as far as to watch all of the video, and read everything I could about flares, how they are assembled, delivered, and how they act after being dropped. I did not want to just say, "It was extraterrestrial and I don't need to go any further." I wanted to know the real truth, and if that led me to a conclusion that flares ended the case, so be it.

But, flares only float in formation for a short period of time, depending on atmospheric conditions, mostly wind direction and speed. There is also smoke associated with them, and a fairly good photo or video of flares will show smoke above them. Soon, flares lose their formation, and some of them go out, and at different times. It is my opinion based on everything that I know that the photographs and videos taken over Phoenix show me that at least some of the multimedia show a craft(s) of unknown origin.
