“Characteristics of Particular Persistent Contrails & Associated Spherical/Spheroidal Objects”

White Spherical Objects & Their Dark Companions

The closest photographic/videographic evidence of the dark objects show them to be (when not exuding a primary color) a dark brown color exhibiting a spheroidal shape similar to a pumpkin seed. A dark sheath of semi-transparent material surrounds the object, perhaps indicating an electromagnetic field. It appears to have an ability to morph into various shapes but maintains integrity and shape and can return to its previous form. Although these dark objects appear to exist at various proportions and sizes, the general size of 2-4 feet in diameter is often maintained when in contact with the larger white object or just moving out of a persistent contrail.

It is theorized that micro/nano sized particles comprise the dark objects. On more than one occasion a haze of small dark particles escape from the central object particularly when in close contact with other dark objects. Although further evidence needs to be acquired, these micro/nano dark particles may act in similar ways at the micro/nano level as their larger accumulates (2-4 foot size) do in conjunction with the larger objects within persistent contrails.

Preliminary evidence suggests the possibility that the dark objects may range in size from micro/nano to two inches to the generally observed size of 2-4 feet in diameter (or other pre-arranged sizes). The accumulation this matter into similar forms may have limits, although it could be feasible that this material may manifest in ultra sizes not yet observed or imaged. Scientists studying a similar (or identical) phenomena in the Hessdalen Project in Norway have documented white objects (which appear to have smaller dark objects surrounding them) appearing at the size of a house in the valleys. (see the Hessdalen Project Video)

The dark objects can demonstrate a sudden rise in temperature, produce light from a low glow to an intense flash or steady light and release a substance that produces one of the primary colors (red, blue, yellow) which often colors the whole object. The colors can mix to produce orange, green and purple.

The larger white objects appear to form within a milky white flowing substance and to be comprised of ambient temperature fibrous material possessing a yet to be identified “cold core”. Although there is photographic/videographic evidence and witness accounts that illustrate apparent fibrous materials ‘shedding’ from the dark/white objects, further work needs to be accomplished which reveals a direct connection between collected polymers falling from the sky (on clear and trail-filled skies) and particular persistent contrails. Many examples exist which appear to show the white objects morphing in connection with the dark objects…visa versa.

When in contact with the larger white objects, the dark objects often cluster closely together and interact closely with the white objects. They may form long ‘trains’ around the white object-- the dark material coalescing temporarily around the white object. It has been suggested that there may be a sharing of information or certain elements/chemicals or other substances during this interaction.

The color substance residing in the dark particles of the dark objects may flow from the dark object’s material into the larger white objects fibers…producing the same color in the fibers. White ‘combo’ objects can be seen in association (clustering) with reddish ‘combo’ objects. Why one larger white object absorbs the color of the dark object is yet to be understood. Dark objects move independently of the white objects yet there is no documented film evidence that the white objects even exist separately from the dark objects.

The Persistent Contrails (“Chemtrails”)

Images of objects moving out of the trails show that the white materials flow in conjunction with the objects at times…suggesting that they may be composed of long flowing filaments. The remnants of the persistent contrails do disperse in at least two ways: (a) in flowing wispy white and dark pseudo-clouds and (b) in a milky haze which spreads across the sky. The first type of dispersion suggests the possibility that more fibrous material is contained within that particular trail. The second pattern, perhaps, suggests that more of the milky substance rather than the fiber is left to disperse across the sky.

The unusual prism of colors witnessed amidst these particular persistent contrails’ remnant ‘pseudo-clouds’ (PC Clouds) may indeed be the unused color component of the dark objects as the dark material disperses along with the possible fibers and milky substance. At times, one may see strange sherbet-like colors of orange, lime and yellow lining these clouds as they pass in front of the sun or in a halo around the moon at night. PC Clouds form as these particular persistent trails and their content disperses and spreads the contents across the atmosphere. It is theorized that the long flowing ‘wispy’ PC Clouds are formed as the wind currents stretch out the fibers, dark or colored particles and ‘milky substance’. One can witness miles long flows ending in upward tufts or rather mysterious-looking jagged star flows.

PC trails may appear as white lines with bi-directional outflows. These outflows may indicate the paths of the objects as they escape the persistent trails after replication/formation within them. Interesting interactions occur between normal clouds and the PC Cloud remnants. These do not mix easily if at all. The white wispy variety along with more recognizable PC remnants may precede incoming groups of mid-level stratus or cumulus clouds…moving along the same current horizon to horizon. Flowing white pseudo-cloud forms do wrap around tall rising thundercloud complexes…giving them an eerie appearance. In comparison, the gray PC Clouds appear dark and undulating forming strange wavy patterns across an otherwise normal gray sky. In addition, the PC clouds set the conditions for unusually colorful and radiant sunrises and sunsets.

Connecting The Spheres World Wide – The Hessdalen Project

Reports, photos, video and research studies of spherical/spheroidal objects or lights have intensified over the last ten years. Although seeming to be separate events, many of the sightings and research are revealing similar objects… the Mexican ‘fleet’ footage of dark/white combination objects of the 1980’s through the present… the individual objects, strings and formations of Phoenix Arizona (1990’s through the present)…the dark and white objects flying by government cameras near Mt. Popocatepetl Mexico…the impressive amounts of videos from the US and the UK of similar objects…the Marfa lights and the luminous spherical phenomena studied in Hessdalen Norway… all have commonalities and are likely the same objects as those proceeding out of the persistent contrails.

Massimo Teodorani PhD. with the EMBLA project at Hessdalen, Norway has studied similar objects lighting up in the night sky at least since the early 1980s. In “A Long-Term Scientific Study of the Hessdalen Phenomenon”, he describes spherical/spheroidal objects of various sizes that can reach radiant power of at least 19kW; appear to be ‘plasma-like’ or solid at times; arrange in “clusters of light balls that behave in a thermally self-regulated way”; and have the capability “to eject smaller light balls”. He further describes the objects in:

”… Luminosity increases in a drastic way because of the sudden appearance of many small light balls around a larger luminous core. The luminosity increase is caused only by the dimensional increase of the composite light surface formed by the cluster of light balls. Some of these secondary light balls are

often ejected from the core.”

What he has found that moves this phenomenon away from theories that the objects are of natural origin are as follows: (a) the light phenomenon “does not have the characteristics typical of a classic plasma of free electrons and ions (Teodorani & Nobili 2002) and (b) “(t)he geometric shapes found in a minority of light phenomena cannot be explained by any ball-lightning theory”.

In addition, one can observe the objects in geometric shapes and patterns (rectangular, triangular, straight lines). Natural phenomena rarely take these types of forms. [These geometric shapes and patterns do occur in the morphing, clustering and ‘flocking’ of dark/white ‘combo’ objects and can be often observed in the pseudo-cloud PC remnants].

In addition, the light balls of Hessdalen do not show thermodynamic characteristics of classical thermal plasma: there is no gradual cooling due to adiabatic expansion or “colorimetric decay with a fast transition from blue or white to red and final disappearance. In opposition to what is expected in ball lightning…as the smaller objects cluster around the larger central object, the white (intense heat) and red (very cool) balls can co-exist. [In comparison, the dark/white ‘combo’ objects are composed of dark object material that appears to reach extreme temperatures while in direct contact with the cooler white object materials].

As to the expected cooling, as the volume of the light ball increases, the objects radiate more power. “The brightness increases linearly with image size which is very different behavior than that expected from a plasma object that is rapidly expanding and consequently cooling. Teodorani further states that:“(t)he observed behavior of these light balls suggests a self-regulating mechanism that keeps the temperature, and hence the radiant power, constant in spite of changes in size.

The findings of Teodorani (EMBLA) appear to support the observations that smaller objects cluster around a core object. Teodorani theorizes that it is the core central object that is a strong central force which attracts the ‘sub-balls’. The smaller ball movement could be due to “electrostatic interactions” between them. He suggests that the light produced is “concentrated in a self-contained ‘approximate ball’ (including the mini-balls inside the central radiating body), therefore the ionizing force must come from inside.”

It is true that the smaller dark objects seem to be attracted to the larger white objects and do interact with one another and the larger object. The dark objects appear to locate or ‘choose’ the white object often within the persistent trail and proceed into the atmosphere attracted to or attached in some way. Yet the dark objects do travel separately…independent of the larger white spheres.

What is interesting and will be more thoroughly discussed later is that the smaller ‘dark/color’ objects may be produced within the white objects and released from them. Some images certainly suggest the existence of multiple ‘balls’ within the larger objects but most observations and images show the dark objects to be clinging to or interacting with the larger white object on its surface… or flying separately or in dark object ‘trains’.

In my observations and analysis, the dark objects appear to be the generators of thermal energy, color and luminosity. The larger white ‘core’ objects passively interacts and takes on the light and color…seeming to be resistant to the high thermal temperatures produced by the dark object.

In a thermal analysis of a cluster of dark and white objects, some of the surrounding dark objects remained ambient air temperature while others demonstrated high thermal indicators. During the interaction among the white and dark objects, the larger white objects remained at ambient temperatures…and maintained a cold core. One possible purpose of the cold core is discussed in which suggests a possible superconductive interaction between the extreme heat and the cold core producing levitation of the objects.

An electromagnetic field or ionizing plasma seems to surround both the dark objects as they fly independently and the dark/white ‘combo’ objects as they move through the atmosphere singly or in flocks. It could be that this sheath (whatever its source) may play a part in containing the various particles/fibers composing the various objects. Further observation and research is needed to establish the mechanisms involved.

Movement Behavior and Speed

Direct observation and videographic recordings indicate that the dark objects can: swarm around one another and fly at high speeds; can dart quickly around obstacles; stop quickly and reverse course with ease; can ‘crawl’ or meander across the atmosphere like an ant searching for resources; seemingly bounce off of material objects and the surface of water; both climb and descend rapidly in any direction; move forward against sustained winds of a minimum of 50 mph; can join other dark objects in whirling motion or travel slowly or quickly in long ‘trains’…one object following the one before it.

Multiple dark/white ‘combos’ have been observed/videotaped descending from a persistent contrail to ground level at split-second speeds—covering approximately 30K feet in a matter of a few seconds. Radar records have established that these the similar objects at Hessdalen, Norway, can attain speeds of 8500 m/s…approximately 18K mph. (see Erling Strand’s “Project Hessdalen 1984 - Final Technical Report”). Objects videotaped and sent to Tracers show similar speeds.

The top speed attained by manned aircraft is approximately 7500 mph. Apollo 10 is the fastest manned spacecraft in the world reaching 24,790 mph. The spacecraft Helios is the fastest unmanned spacecraft with a top speed of 157,078 mph. These objects can achieve speeds far above atmospheric aircraft almost reaching rocket speeds after a full mid-air stop and reversal of path.

While utterly slow and graceful while in somewhat stationary flock formations (10-100s of individual objects hovering overhead or flying amongst one another) and move swiftly and in unison straggled formation, the dark/white ‘combo’ objects can also tear across the skies at astounding speeds.

Color Heat & Light

There is some indication that the thermal energy generated by the dark objects (rather than a central core within the larger white object) may be the primary energy source or producer of energy. The dark objects may be responsible for the ignition of large dark/white ‘combos’ that become roaring fireballs.

Another instance when thermal intensity appears to be heightened is during the interaction of the dark and white objects. As the dark objects move around the larger white object, the dark object appears to change state seeming more quiescent at other times. Magnetic properties may intensify during this process producing a spiky appearance surrounding the dark object (more study /measurements are needed).

While interacting with the larger white object, the dark object transitions from a low energy/low heat to a high energy/high heat intensity flare-light producing object. Observations of dark objects near the ground have indicated that these particle-packed objects appear as glowing embers after they have flashed a light outward. The objects often appear red or orange from a low glow to a bright flare of light…although color may be harder to ascertain while releasing colors into the blue or yellow range.

The larger white object appears to remain an ambient temperature with a cold core during the process, although often exhibiting the color and luminosity produced by the dark object. The dark/white ‘combo’ objects can be in a state of invisibility (not discernable in visible ranges or in the infrared range) to a steady gold-white or orange/red light while hovering or traveling in the atmosphere…or appear as a bright white light surrounded by multi or singularly colored smaller lights.

It appears that a substance exhibiting primary color (red, blue, yellow) can be created and released from the dark objects. This action, in turn, spreads the color to the larger white object when one or more is in close proximity. The colors can combine to produce prism effects and ‘sherbet’ colors (light lime, orange, pink) in the remnant pseudo-clouds that spread out from the initial persistent contrail.

A dark object may only be capable of producing one color or all three. It is unclear whether this is a distinct individual characteristic. One can see a mixture of color in some PCs as the dark objects locate the larger white objects within the trail.

The may be a communication or signaling technique. In several video captures from Cenepred at Mt. Popocatepetl, on close examination, the dark objects attached to the larger white object forming the ‘train’ of combo objects (moving over Mt. Popo toward the stationary object) seem to be exuding a blue color in one row of objects and red in the other. The color substance appears almost gaseous as in flows away from the objects into the surrounding air. The stationary object seemed to exude a combination of colors as the ‘train’ approached – often a yellowish green. Adding to the possible communication may be the release of thermal energy and the bright flashes of light.

Teodorani analyzes a photo of a cluster of spherical objects which shows a wavelength range of the spectra is from 4000-7000 angstroms. The light phenomenon displays three different colors: low-intensity blue and high-intensity white and red with different intensities. “The absolute luminosity of this cluster of light balls has been estimated to be about 19 kW.” He recommends further studies to confirm the possibility that there exists a “LED-like” spectrum or “lamp-like” quality to the lights. Teodorani suggests another interesting theory that may explain this quality and the existence of light balls or spherical objects of different colors…nano-crystallites or quantum dots…suggesting the possibility of an artificial cause.

Group Formations and Interactions

Those dark objects not attaching to the larger white spheres can exhibit swarming behavior soon after departing the trails and hover within local normal clouds. Both the dark objects and the dark/white ‘combos’ often form linear ‘trains’ (several objects in a line traveling together).

“Combos” often form geometric Clusters (two to multiple units acting in unison). These cluster formations may nudge against one another forming what appears to be a solid object or remain in close proximity forming geometric patterns in the sky (i.e., triangles, rectangles, circles, etc.) Both the dark objects and the dark/white combos may form circular ‘rings’ – individuals moving in and out of the pattern. The white material may connect and morph into any shape – curved or angular – with the dark objects embedded within it. The objects may ‘glow’ dimly or appear as bright beacons or pulsing lights day and night.

The interaction amongst dark objects is usually a very swift flying around one another avoiding collisions. At times, these objects may closely buzz around one another releasing dark particles/material which can envelope them. The object discovered via camera may exhibit any shape or form until one take a closer look and discovers multiple objects within the cloud of particles.

The dark objects may join one another as they attach and interaction with the larger white objects. This may have the appearance of one long object on the outer periphery of the white object. The dark objects appear to move around the white object (in slow or very quick motion) and suddenly ‘flare up’ producing a glow or flash of red, blue or yellow light (or combinations thereof). The dark objects have been observed exhibiting this behavior without being attached or interacting with the larger white objects.

The dark/white objects may act quite independently of one another while moving separately or in flock formations. While attached, at times forming geometric patterns with the dark objects interlocking the larger white objects, they appear uniform in movement… “locked in” a tight formation. (see “Fleets” or Flocks in videos at ??)

The objects may suddenly turn on, light up or sputter into visibility at night spreading out and maintaining a precise linear, triangular, or crescent-shaped formation for minutes to hours. They may suddenly flash on showing one, two --then produce a line of objects for only a few seconds. In the case of the long-lasting formations at night that may cover a distance of a mile or more, the objects appear to be able to lock into exact positions and maintain them in relation to one another. It may be that some of these object lights are mistaken for lights on a structured craft (e.g., boomerang, crescent, deltoid, or triangular). (See Mystery of the Morphing UFO??) One must search for background lights or stars that may show between lights…or obtain images that may show a solid structure or material… before claiming a sighting of an ultra-sized craft.

Periodically, astronomers and other nighttime observers report witnessing clusters of flickering lights surrounded by an amorphous cloudy appearing substance. Some of these clusters resemble far away nebulae until the structure begins to move and a closer look through a telescope/binoculars reveals a strange material encasing multiple glowing and flashing spherical objects.

Another type of formation (which I have personally only witnessed three times) is the ‘string of lights’ formation. Unlike the ‘train’ formations of dark objects or geometric combinations of dark and white objects, these linear formations of objects is loosely connected…often straggling across the sky like a flock of birds…although far from being birds. (See Rob Kritkausky’s video capture illustrating a string of lights moving through the valley near Phoenix, Arizona). Note the variety of colors produced and the dark objects located on either side of the larger objects.

Some of these formations appear to also have an amorphous substance surrounding the spheres while others seen traveling lower to the ground often do not. The substance surrounding and interspersed between them closely resembles the milky, flowing materials in persistent contrails. In the distance, if stationary, they may look like an undulating or wave-pattern trail with low-glow objects or an occasional blink or flash of one or more of the objects within.

The strings and clusters of objects enclosed in the substance may be simply taking the PC remnant materials with them… the string traveling horizontally across the sky…or perhaps they are a short segment of a thin trail.

Rick Moors’ image of a persistent contrail filled with objects photographed over Santa Monica, California (see front page Tracers) illustrates PC objects falling below a recently created trail. A doublet object (two dark/white ‘combos’) appears to have dragged the whitish, flowing PC substance out of the trail leaving a discrete white line or trail perpendicular to the trail. Other lines of white material also appear to be moving downward toward a large amorphous mass containing multiple spherical objects. Perhaps some of these objects keep a section of PC remnant for a ‘wrap’ of protection or camouflage or some other use… while others use other techniques such maintaining some other cloak of invisibility when needed.

The object strings can maintain a very low glow of luminosity or produce flashes or a full glow. They can travel at the same high speeds as the singular objects.

Trails As A Self-Replication And Distribution Process

A growing amount of observation, photo/videographic evidence suggests that these objects disperse their composition materials via persistent contrails. As one or more dark/white ‘combos’ hover or move across the sky, they can be seen to release their materials…a small amount at a time or releasing vast amounts of material as contrails. It appears that both the dark and white objects release (disassemble and/or self-replicate) their materials into the atmosphere…moving from one atmospheric location to another world-wide.

The dark/white ‘combo’ objects may be mimicking aircraft to accomplish their self-replication within persistent contrails and other activities. This mimickry could easily be achieved through simple maneuvering (yet another formation of objects)…by linear and geometric arrangement of the dark-white objects into shapes resembling aircraft.

Aircraft also create some persistent contrails. If this is a human created process, the starter material could be contained with an aircraft and initially distributed in an area of focus…then the objects themselves could take over the missions and replication process.

One observation of interest is that some aircraft (particularly jet airliners) move across the sky along their designated flightpaths with normal condensation trails. When they move into or near the pseudo-cloud remnants of the ‘special’ object persistent contrails, the aircraft’s normal trail suddenly becomes persistent and lingers amongst the remnant materials. As soon as the aircraft has passed through the area, their contrail returns to normal. What does this say about the object trail and its contents?

As the dark/white object(s) (in some cases a doublet or combination of ‘combos’ resembling the shape of an aircraft) create the trails, one can see the dark material pouring from the dark objects onto the perimeters of the trail while the white material is release in between. Other times, the dark objects seem to pop into existence within feet of the original creator and move into the trail’s perimeter or out into the local atmosphere. On occasion, multiple ‘combos’ form a ring which pours out a white substance and the dark objects can be seen moving from the original dark objects into the trail. Hundreds to thousands of objects appear to be created in this fashion per trail.

At times, the dark/white ‘combos’ appear to release more than a small amount of materials. Observation and videos appear to show that the small streaming of material can suddenly become the release of vast amounts of material in the form of miles long fulminating contrails. The trails of white materials lined with dark materials may initially be thin lines to trails 60-100 feet across… may be relatively short in length to horizon-to-horizon.

Many observations/videos show both long persistent and spreading trails and the shorter, thinner variety occurring simultaneously. In addition, may also show ‘normal’ aircraft contrails above, below or occurring at the approximate altitude of the persistent trails.

An important question to be answered is if the white fulminating material is all composed of the necessary components of the larger white objects. Obviously, not all of the material is used in the formation or assemblage of these objects. Is the milky like substance used as a mimicking cover for the replication process? Are these objects pretending to be both aircraft and their trails?

If the objects can use the second replication process mentioned above (a single or double ‘combo’ using only a small stream of white substance), why the need for the highly observable large capacity object creation factory… the persistent contrail? The dispersion of remnant materials which cover the skies could be either a necessary secondary after-effect of the main purpose of the trails—the objects—or perhaps this slowly moving and dissipating material has some other purpose?

In 1999, I photographed what seemed to be to small jets flying in tandem overhead at approximately 2-3000 feet altitude. Behind both the fuzzy appearing craft were two long, quickly spreading trails covering an area of approximately 25 square miles. Suddenly, these two grayish V-shaped trails simultaneously became single white trails parallel to one another and continued on across the sky. The photograph showed multiple dark and white spheroidal shaped objects along with dark and red oblong shapes within the dispersal substance. The dispersal pattern changed.

Persistent contrails can vary in direction, shape, size, color and dispersal pattern. A trail may suddenly appear mid-sky (with no apparent craft or object visible in front of it) and create a relatively short trail. A trail may inexplicably begin rotating, spiraling, making dots and dashes, zigzagging while creating multi-directional patterns. A trail may form an S shape or make a sudden U-turn. Might it be that if these are intelligent robotic devices or lifeforms (that are not only performing as programmed but learning in an atmospheric environ) –they may not only be conducting replication and dispersion when creating trails… they may be entertaining themselves or “playing” to learn?

**Replication Technique #1 (Within the Persistent Contrails)

Multiple videos that appear to show dark/white “combo” objects releasing fulminous white material (mid section) forming long persistent trails. These objects appear to release dark materials and/or spherical-shaped dark objects which then line the white material mid section. The white material seems to congeal into spherical/spheroidal objects. Once formed, the smaller dark objects (which can also be red, blue or yellow…or combinations of these) seem to seek out the newly formed larger white objects and ‘attach’ to them.

**Replication Technique #2 (Single/Doublet Object)

Newer footage appears to show single or double spherical objects releasing similar white material with fully formed objects interspersed throughout. Some objects discontinue the white streaming material and begin to ‘release’ similar appearing objects in lines downward or from one or either side of the original object.

Long-term collection and testing of white polymers/fibers falling from the atmosphere to ground level has been accomplished by various laboratories (e.g., Frontier Analysis – 1970s to present). Polymers/fibers commonly referred to as “angel hair,” are often witnessed falling en masse over regions with individual strands ranging from inches to a hundred feet in length and less than a millimeter to two inches plus in diameter (the latter cases are the most unusual).

Under a microscope, the fibers often appear white with ‘wavy’ short filaments intertwined in generally helical patterns to produce a larger strand of material. Interspersed within the layered spiraled filaments are microscopic ragged-edged black, red, blue, yellow particles. Many analyses show the polymers/fibers to be protein-based fibers with the closest comparison to silk-worm web (not spider or other known biologically based web material). Future testing needs to include separation of filaments from the small particles for separate testing and analysis of each component.

For air sample collection of white, blue, red fibers with small black particles interspersed, see Carnicom’s webpage list in the Bibliography below.

The release of particles can be seen clearly when dark objects ‘buzz’ around one another (this release or collection of material can take on any shape and has been at time labeled ‘flying humanoids’ and odd shaped small ufos). The larger white objects also appear to release fibrous material. Some observations and photographs show what appears to be a ‘shedding’ process. At times, long strands of multiple fibers hang onto the perimeter of the object then slowly shed off into the atmosphere. If it can be established that these strands are of the same composition as the tested polymer/fibers collected from ground level, this could be the connection necessary to prove the objects are the polymer/fiber source.

Another necessary connection to be made is that the dark and white objects actually assemble or self-replicate within some persistent contrails. (Collection and testing of materials from persistent contrails and comparing these results with the object’s shedded material and that of the ground samples could establish this theory as fact.)

Do The Spheres Or PC Objects Create Their Own Trails?

Just after I began the project of gathering data on the trails and objects in 1999, I witnessed two incidents that for me presented overwhelmingly convincing evidence that spherical objects created trails. The first occurred during the winter of 1999..the second in December 1999 (see “Invisibility of Objects and Trails” below for a description of that event)

Just at sunset I was scanning the western skies when I suddenly caught sight of a very strange contrail on the horizon..zig-zagging very low to the ground. Whatever was creating this contrail was moving toward the southeast -- moving toward me at an angle. I kept my eyes on it as it proceeded closer and I still could not make out a definitive shape in front of it -- though I thought I saw something small and dark there a couple of times. As it reached past a major thoroughfare running north and south (about 7 miles away) – through the binocuIars, I could see that something was creating short bursts of contrail in a zig-zag fashion... similar to ‘skating’ across the sky….one following the other.

The trails were flying low--approximately 500-700 feet above ground. It was difficult to gauge the size of these trails – I would estimate at least 1000 feet in length and perhaps 20 feet in diameter. They appeared to be rounded in shape and taking on the color of the setting sun.

Suddenly as the trails were about 3 miles away--a very bright white spherical light appeared several hundred feet in front of a short burst of orange contrail. Then both the light and the contrail disappeared. The light appeared again and followed by the short contrail -- and both blinked out again. This pattern continued for a few minutes until the light appeared without a contrail and after a few seconds--disappeared. The light repeated this behavior of appearing and disappearing a few more times before making its final disappearance. The whole incident lasted about 10 minutes and left me stunned.

What this told me was that spheres not only could create trails – both the object and the trail could disappear simultaneously… Although the spherical object appeared first then the trail within a second-- both disappeared simultaneously.

Tracers acquired excellent video from Doug McGinnis of Ft. Worth, Texas taken on June 6, 2001 over Westpoint, Texas. This video clearly shows contrails containing both the white and dark objects. This clearest video yet reveals zoomed close-ups of a white spherical object with darker objects attached -- and multiple objects maneuvering across the sky at beyond lightning speeds.

McGinnis' video seems to illustrate the agility and speed at which these objects can fly. The objects performance capabilities include: hovering, slow travel accelerating to extreme speeds (an estimated 15-20K per second), quick reversals in direction seeming "lighter than air" (suggesting electromagnetic assisted flight), swooping to low altitude over a house and back up to contrails all in under a second in time -- wildly surpassing any publicly-known human aerial vehicle or UAV. (See http://tracers.8m.com/dmgwhtdrk.htm)

A most interesting aspect of this video is what seems to be occurring in front (where an aircraft should be) of the PC being formed. McGinnis directly observed what he described as "jets" in front of the contrails he captured in his June 6 video and had some reservations about what he was actually seeing creating the contrails: "While I was filming both jets, it seemed at times I could not see the jet, like my eyes were playing tricks on me."

Unknown to Doug at the time and revealed upon a frame by frame analysis of one of these video clips something most strange was appearing in front of the contrail periodically as it raced across the sky. Although an aircraft could not be objectified on the video. Near a dark foggy area where a craft could have been camouflaged by a hazy sky --an image of white/dark "combos" suddenly appears and a quickly disappears every few seconds -- objects appearing startlingly similar to the white and dark objects within this contrail and the contrails mentioned above.

On June 28, 2001, McGinnis and an associate (same location) witnessed and videotaped a light colored object traveling to the north at an estimated 15, 000 feet in altitude at an extremely fast clip. This object on closer examination of the videotape and captures appears to be two white/dark object "combos" moving in unison creating a white trail across the sky. Several video captures and photographs sent into Living-Tracers show similar objects either hovering or creating small contrails.

Joanne Meehan, Living-Tracers Enterprises and others have captured objects that appear to be actually "creating" persistent, normal-looking and thin streamed contrails. (See "TrailMakers" at http://tracers.8m.com/U-CC.htm) In an interesting photograph, a white spherical object with darker ones "attached" on either side appears to be spewing out similar substance to that which is within the contrails.

Object Creation Of Luminous And Spiraling Contrails

New photos and videos have surfaced that appear to confirm that some persistent contrails are indeed created by the dark/white object combinations in various formations: (a) single objects, (b) objects in a linear or “train” formation, (c) object cluster formations resembling aircraft or rockets, (d) objects forming large “rings” some which can create trails – the dark objects moving into the periphery and the white flowing into the central portion of the trail.

Bruce Cornet Ph.D. reveals in “The Transformation” that the course and motion of anomalous lights at night is in the form of loops and spirals. The objects (some ‘doublets’) appear to be spherical and travel across the atmosphere seeming at first look to be in a pattern similar to aircraft lights. Yet the traces on the photographs upon magnification “one can clearly see the spiraling nature of the lights and how the spirals evolve into alternating loops” precluding identification as a known human aircraft. Utilizing HSIR film, color film and time exposures, Cornet has produced an array of evidence that these anomalous lights and objects do indeed create spiraling motions.

In two dramatic color photos, taken on October 5, 1993 near Montgomery, New York, Cornet illustrates the dynamics of the objects. An apparent aura surrounding a trace, then an distinctive interruption. Cornet describes this event as “strobes (or light flashes) displaced around a spiraling light” creating a vortex.

Upon observation of this photo taken at 9:01 p.m., various colored (notably red, blue and yellow) spherical objects appear to rip apart the trace accumulating below it and exploding outward into a spiraling array. Another HSIR photo taken at 10:10 p.m. the same night clearly demonstrates a “corkscrew” spiraling motion.

Evidence from the Hessdalen Project also shows evidence that the spherical/spheroidal objects observed there can demonstrate the capacity of creating a spiral pathway. In the project video, “The Portal: The Hessdalen Light Phenomenon”, Bjorn Gitle Hauge describes and shows photographic evidence of a large object apparently composed of a white center with multiple dark objects surrounding it:

“…then it moved. We managed to photographed it five times.” The video shows a large white spherical/spheroidal shaped object with what appears to be several dark objects surrounding it over the valley. “The last object we saw had the size of a barn…(see HD video 4/5 at :14-16) It briefly disappeared, and when it reappeared it had the shape of a fiery ball…” (note a :23 the image shows a wisp of white material below it and the several dark objects seem a further distance away from the very large sphere). The possibility of PC objects forming large huge fireballs (the dark objects serving as an ignition source is illustrated at http://tracers.8m.com/glow.htm . This is discussed at length in the article “The Fireball Mystery” at http://tracers.8m.com/mystfire.htm.

Hauge continues: …”it stopped shining, and soon after two smaller lights appeared. They crashed into the ground right over there… As it hit the treetops, a blue spiraling beam of light emerged. This blue beam hits the treetops over there. (see HD video 4/5 at :53) … After the impact, it changes its spiral movement.” (see the list of characteristics described at 1:27—also listed below)

At night, these particular persistent contrails are sometimes luminescent following similar luminosity intensities as the dark/white objects (low glow to bright white).

There have been some observations of persistent trails dissipating completely within a split-second along with their trail-making object. The objects’ luminosity has been shown to decrease, intensify and ‘shut on and off’. With more field observation and testing, this elusive trail disappearance may provide more evidence of the strong connection between the objects and the trails.

Massimo Teodorani (of the Hessdalen EMBLA research project reports that while on a scientific expedition to the Sibillini Mountains, he and his associate document luminous objects that “mostly produce luminous trails in the sky”.

M. Teodorani quote from Anomalous Light Phenomena: 1994-2003 Research Papers (collection of abstracts):

The SIBILLA 2003 Mission. A one-week scientific expedition to the Sibillini Mountains (central Italy), was carried out in August 2003 by physicist Gloria Nobili and myself. Obtained results are presented as follows:

a. A luminous phenomenon exists. Reports have been done...very luminous objects which are uniformly moving in the sky and sometimes [produce] stationary flashes in the sky and on the top of the mountains. The moving object changes every day… time of arrival in 20-30 minutes, and their direction is 15-30 deg. In some cases they disappear abruptly, while in other cases they do not appear at all even if in a totally clear sky.

b. ***The phenomenon mostly produces luminous trails in the sky and at present it cannot be tracked.***

c. The presence of geomagnetic anomalies increases the threshold of the magnetic noise (up to 10 microtesla)

Amorphous Flocks and Strings of Light

Another type of formation (which I have personally only witnessed three times) is the ‘string of lights’ formation. Unlike the ‘train’ formations of dark objects or geometric combinations of dark and white objects, these linear formations of objects are loosely connected…often straggling across the sky like a flock of birds…although far from being birds. (See Rob Kritkausky’s video capture illustrating a string of lights moving through the valley near Phoenix, Arizona). Note the variety of colors produced and the dark objects located on either side of the larger objects.

The object strings can maintain a very low glow of luminosity or produce flashes or a full glow. They can travel at the same high speeds as the singular objects.

Invisibility of Objects and Trails

Many PC objects are captured on film or digitally and are not seen by the photographer. Film and digital artifacts resolved, this may be because of the object’s speed, quick maneuvering or sunlight/atmospheric conditions which obscure visibility. Other times, one may observe on video an object bobbling between visibility and invisibility exhibiting an ‘on and off’ light pattern similar to the behavior observed at night.

What convinced me of the object’s ability to completely disappear from clear, unimpeded sight was my observations during December of 1999. I observed several miles long contrails suddenly and inexplicable disappear in the sky. One event certainly got my attention. In December of 1999, I was observing the sky with binoculars and noticed what looked like an aircraft approaching from the southeast. Behind it a long, voluminous persistent trail formed which appeared to be very much like all the other PCs I had observed. As this craft got closer, I could distinguish its features. It had a pinkish hue and no wings or tail fins. It was not a known aircraft. I focused intensely on this object and its miles long white trail which was beginning to spread out in the distance. Suddenly and inexplicably, this object and its long trail disappeared. I was stunned.

If indeed this oblong pinkish object was a combination of dark/white objects--and these objects are forming persistent contrails – they obviously do have the capability of sudden ‘disappearance’. Although distance and hazy skies do account for many observations of aircraft suddenly disappearing from view, some accounts by expert observers and those accounts including the sudden disappearance of whole persistent contrails do raise new questions.

Are both these mysterious objects and their trails (which may indeed be filled with object materials) a unit subject to remote control? Or might their intercommunication be so precise that thousands of objects and their materials can remove themselves from our view in a split second? Are these objects some type of holographic image or simply display the wonders of higher tech camouflage?

As mentioned in my previous article on this subject "Winked Out: UFOs or High Tech Camouflage?" many reports -- including reports by George Filer and other members of MUFON-- indicate that a clear view of an apparent aircraft making a persistent contrail can suddenly and inexplicably be missing the aircraft. (See http://tracers.8m.com/winked.htm for the article)

Excerpt from Tom Sheets of MUFON Georgia account of a disappearing aircraft: "It's gone, it just vanished". Within a few moments, we were all out and looking. The jet had indeed vanished. The sky was double checked using binoculars with negative results. We could still plainly see the contrail/chemtrail line through the haze, stopping at the edge, then a short way out into the clear sky the contrail began again, then stopped. The course the jet had been flying was directly into the clear sky. If it had banked/turned or climbed or dove, we should still have been able to see it for several minutes. There were NO other clouds or haze for it to fly into on it's course, which was estimated at being about NWN..."

"It should be noted that all three of us have long experience as observers, myself from 25 years of law enforcement and SWAT type operations, Mark Ausmus from years of organizing and executing MANY skywatch ops and UFO surveillance operations, but CFI Jim Clifford is probably the most formally trained as an observer for this type of activity. Jim retired after 23 years of naval service with a Top Secret security clearance in communications. He also has experience in the P-3 Orion subhunter aircraft, and was once responsible for visually spotting a Russian submarine that had gotten into one of our Navy's areas of patrol responsibility; the sub had been overlooked by other observers and methods, but Jim spotted it during patrol sweeps by the P-3. He is an alert, objective and close observer... (see "http://tracers.8m.com/MUFdispln.htm for the full account)

Could Avery's and McGinnis' videos and various witness' photographs showing no aircraft, disappearing aircraft or white/dark combo (PC related) objects in front of contrails--indicate that at least some of the persistent contrails filling our skies from Japan to Australia to Russia to the US are being created by some unknown technology--perhaps in a camouflaged or mostly invisible state?

Activities And Missions

While most observations of the dark/white objects (day or night) show a seemingly erratic pattern of behavior… lights flickering and meandering the skies in the distance… patterns of possible communication and behavior are emerging.

In addition to possible self-replication and the various patterned movements and clustering behavior mentioned above—the objects may coordinate to carry out a variety of missions. Certainly there appears to be a dispersion pattern of persistent contrails across the planet although very little publicly known collection of data or statistical analysis has revealed specific evidence of patterns.

Satellite images show unusual contrail patterns that cannot be accounted for by a study of aircraft flight patterns. Some areas of the globe are ‘covered’ by multiple parallel or criss-crossing trails, including the oceans, at certain times while other areas are relatively clear. The trail pseudo-cloud remnants can produce strange looking geometric cloud formations and may contribute to some rather odd weather patterns. (see ww and Germ and sat??).

Some images show spiraling trails with what appear to be white objects out front. Other images demonstrate the apparent ability of these objects to interact with and at times move and manipulate clouds and/or PC cloud remnants for their own elusive purposes. The spheres themselves can morph into geometric shapes and it is possible that these objects also create various geometric cloud designs and shapes… i.e., rectangular, circular, oval, etc. (see Sat Images??)

Much work needs to be accomplished in this area to understand why the objects are distributed in these particular patterns.

Passing multiple object flocking events are reported and videotaped in many areas of the globe yet there has been no publicly known system developed to track these particular sightings. I personally witnessed and photographed an event of a larger object surrounded by 20 or more objects on August 1, 1999. With some persistent contrails approximately 5-10 miles to the east, these objects first displayed directly overhead in what appeared as a geometricly designed formation—each object at an almost exact angle and distance from the others. I then spotted a larger teardrop shaped object with a red glow on the ‘back’ side. This object hovered in stationary position overhead at about 2-5K feet for approximately 10 minutes before proceeding slowly toward the northeast.

While the larger object hovered in place, the multiple smaller objects began to ascend and descend in a graceful dance assuming various patterns. Soon after the teardrop shaped object moved, the smaller ones followed slowly moving around one another and the larger object. The flock of objects appeared to reach another point and stopped and repeated the sequence. A few minutes later, the flock moved to the northwest and ‘located’ yet another point and stopped their procession once again. The points of the flock procession appeared to form an isosceles triangle. Interestingly, within a few minutes, a camouflaged military-appearing helicopter flew rather low over my position moving from the northeast to the southwest.

Another interesting observation of object behavior occurred during 2002 while watching Mount Popocatepetl in Mexico via the government operated Cenepred stationary camera.

Excerpt:

“I tuned into Cenepred Volcano Cam starting January 1, 2002 and began to witness with others the most extraordinary display on the screen. I had never seen anything quite like this before -- thought I had seen an occasional dark or white rounded object moving across the screen on this videocam -- but this was very different.

First I noticed a white rounded area with what appeared to be a dark area right above and below it -- at the top right part of the screen. It remained more or less in this position for several days appearing fairly
close to the camera.

Soon thereafter closing in on 1pm CST, a couple of white 'streaks' appeared in the distance to the right of Mt. Popo -- both seeming to move toward the volcano keeping the same distance between them.

The white streaks in the background certainly were changing in position relative to the mountain volcano and appeared to move right over it and curved toward the camera.

A white oblong "object" with what appears to be dark areas on the top and bottom of it also -- then appeared from the top of the screen to the left of the apparently stationary object. Over a few minutes this object 'from above' moved beneath the stationary object at a diagonal angle and then moved off screen.

I decided to tune in to CENEPRED Volcano Cam the following days and captured and saved the action at random not knowing what would be showing up later. As if the action of the first day was not enough
to baffle the mind -- the march across the skies over Mt. Popo continued over several days. And it was the SAME march!

Recently I brought out these old captures and decided to do a little study -- and lo and behold -- I had some pictures taken at relatively the same time to compare.

On three separate days, at about 1 pm CST until 1:30 pm -- (1) the white 'streaks' moved over Mt. Popo and (2) the white oblong object moved under the stationary white spherical object.

Not only that -- but they were **synchronized**. In the shots taken by the camera at 13:03 pm, 13:15 pm, and 13:23 pm (all within a minute or so of one another), my captures of the objects show them to be in the same almost *exact positions* on January 3, 6 and 8 at those times.

This could be a most important discovery and needs further investigation to explain what is happening in these camera shots. I have not seen nor any of my cohorts seen anything remotely resembling this
particular screen activity before or since this time.

We certainly may have aerial robots (of the human or 'other' variety) here synchronized on a GPS or other Grid system perhaps monitoring the volcano. This does appear to be organized activity...but the question remains..."who's"?”
