The Occultist: A Miscellany of the Strange

People in Blue Springs, Missouri have been seeing strange lights flickering red, green and blue above their homes in the western part of state. It could be a planet, a drone or… (as usual) something else. (via UFOs seen hovering over western Missouri | KMOV.com St. Louis)

UFO On Fire Over Peru? 2012 HD (by StephenHannardADGUK)

Something on fire in the skies above Peru. Odd meteorological phenomenon? Near-Earth object dissipating in the atmosphere? Actual aliens?

The uploader added his/her own music and noise, apparently. Don’t be fooled or influenced by that.

The object is described as a ball of light with a blue glow that moves up and down, in circles, and sporadically disappears and comes back into view. Many say its too high to be an airplane.

It’s a logical theory and fits with the way the Central Intelligence Agency worked early on—intensely covert and completely unafraid of using innocent American citizens to further their agenda.

I must confess I love it when local TV stations get so bored they go ahead and embrace a UFO story. They take an irritating knee-jerk skeptic’s view, usually, but stories like this are still fun.

Multiple UFOs in Low Earth Orbit- NASA Leaked UFO Video! (by SupernovaAnnie)

This video was posted May 1 but I can’t help but feel I’ve seen it before. Either way, it details numerous odd objects seen in low Earth orbit. Most fit the ovoid “foo fighter” description and while I assume someone can give a logical explanation for all of them, I can’t think of one at the moment.
