Local News Attempting to Debunk Mass UFO Sighting in Japan

Wednesday, February 5, 2014 12:19

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

(Before It's News)

When: January 23rd, 2014
Where: Naha, Okinawa, Japan
What: Series of lights hovering in mid air, changing formations and then disappearing, mass sighting, possibly military flares?

Going to take a break from Texas today to explore one of the better international mass UFO sightings of late (though these are happening around the clock and are literally impossible to keep up with).

According to the Okinawa Times and YouTube videos and photos to hit the web, Japanese residents of Naha witnessed a collection of strange lights changing formations and hovering in the night sky for several minutes. They were accompanied by a meteor or falling star, which may or may not have been related. In YouTube videos, the lights almost appear to talk to each other and interact. They are definitely not conventional air crafts or Chinese lanterns.

Japan – like many Asian and even South American countries – is no stranger to incredible mass UFO sightings, which do not happen or get reported on as frequently in the US.

At first, the event was reported as a mass UFO sighting, but since then the Okinawa Times has perhaps(?) backpedaled a bit and “debunked” it as military flares. Not sure I buy that explanation, or even understand it… you can read the translated news story below.

Watch the video and read the “official” explanation, as well as theories from others who saw these UFOs:

[translated]
By checking the video of this newspaper photography, showed “third Marine Expeditionary Force is the park bombing morphisms southwest of Naha, it was the training with a flare fired from the aircraft” he said. There are three morphism bombing field Desuna Island, Torishima, of Kume Island to the west of Naha, but the location was not revealed. Models that have fired did not even answer.

The “mystery of light”, witness testimony of more than one submitted for this newspaper. I had to answer experts ruled out the possibility of astronomical phenomena, U.S. Air Force and Japan Air Self-Defense Force also has not been training.

Here are some interesting comments from YouTube:

Wonder if there is a mountain?
Someone such as a light in the mountains? - xreypapa

[translated] As experts say, this would be a tracer of the U.S. military certainly – ピグレットティガー

When I was surprised to reverse because there is no person who though stood out so much, it was taken very much, and I see the video of this place and you’re going to cooperate in providing information, I also two videos UP on youtube in a hurry I tried to.
