So what looks like a large object may well just be a point of light,&#8221; Sheaffer said. &#8220;Many of the objects they&#8217;re seeing are birds or bats, or faint satellites in earth orbit. There&#8217;s nothing in the sky that a night vision device can see that a person can&#8217;t see with 10 x 50 binoculars — and with much better detail. So their belief that they&#8217;re seeing entire fleets of UFOs up in the sky simply means that they don&#8217;t understand how these devices work, and what they&#8217;re seeing.&#8221;</p></blockquote><p><strong>Source</strong>: <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/42908859/ns/technology_and_science-space/">UFO battles captured on video?

Totally confused about this story — the UK press has published a very strange photo implying Iran has made a Flying Saucer (UFO), which bizarrely looks like its come from a 1950&#8242;s B-Movie!</p><p>But in reality, what Iran has made, or rather announced, is a home-made unmanned flying device called Zohal (Arabic for &#8216;Saturn&#8217;) — strangely the words ‘flying saucer’ are mentioned in the announcement, which I suspect is the reason for the misunderstanding, but I no idea where the photo of the UFO has come from!</p><blockquote><p>Zohal (from the Arabic for “Saturn”) is a quadrotor device which was designed and developed jointly by Farnas Aerospace Company and Iranian Aviation and Space Industries Association (IASIA).</p><div id="attachment_2409" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 170px"><a href="http://cryptoworld.co.uk/assets/uploads/zohal-yes.jpg" rel="lightbox[2407]"><img class="size-medium wp-image-2409  " title="This is Iran's &quot;flying saucer&quot;" src="http://cryptoworld.co.uk/assets/uploads/zohal-yes-250x208.jpg" alt="This is Iran's &quot;flying saucer&quot;" width="160" height="133" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">This is Iran&#39;s &quot;flying saucer&quot;</p></div><p>The flying device is equipped with an auto-pilot system, a GPS (Global Positioning System) and two separate imaging systems with full High Definition (HD) 10 mega-pixel picture quality.</p><p>The Zohal is planned to be used for variety of missions, mostly related to aerial imaging. The cuadrotour unmanned device is able to take and send images simultaneously.</p><p>The flying device also includes a small, portable navigation and monitoring center which will be used for transmitting data and images. Zohal can fly in both outdoor and indoor spaces.</p></blockquote><p>I kind of feel the UK media are making light of the announcement, possibly even debunking the story when in fact the device appears to be very real and interesting. <em>Mind you, the media in question only the Mail!</em></p><p><strong>Source</strong>:<br /> NYC Aviation: <a href="http://nycaviation.com/2011/03/iran-shows-off-flying-saucer-uav-which-is-not-round-looks-nothing-like-a-saucer/">Iran Builds ‘Flying Saucer’ UAV Which Is Not Round, Looks Nothing Like a Saucer</a><br /> Daily Mail: <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1367204/Iran-builds-worlds-flying-saucer-Looks-like-belongs-1950s-B-movie.html">We&#8217;ve built a flying saucer, boasts Iran (even if it does look like it belongs in a 1950s B-movie)</a></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://cryptoworld.co.uk/iran-builds-ufo-not/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
