UFO Spotted over Hangzhou, China

Post by Razaekel »

A Chinese airport was closed after this mysterious object was spotted in the sky.

Arcing over Zhejiang's provincial capital Hangzhou, the UFO appeared to glow with an eerie white light and left a bright trail in its wake.

Xiaoshan Airport was closed after the UFO was detected at around 9 pm and dozens of flights had to be diverted.

Stunned witnesses reported seeing a comet-like fireball in the sky and a number of local residents took photos of the strange ball of light.

A local bus driver, giving his name only as Yu, said he had seen a strange glowing object in the sky late on Wednesday afternoon.

'The thing suddenly ran westwards fast, like it was escaping from something,' he said.

Inbound flights were diverted to nearby airports while outbound flights were delayed for three to four hours.

Some Chinese experts claimed that the strange sight was actually debris from a US intercontinental ballistic missile.

Chinese officials later said that they knew what the object had been but were unable to make it public because there was a 'military connection.'

An official statement is expected later today.

There's two pictures in the link.

Is it possible that this is some Chinese military tech that they haven't mentioned before? I haven't seen anything that produces such a wide trail, so I think it could have been some sort of meteor on a very flat, tangential path.
Well, well, what do we have here?

Rocket malfunction is my first guess.

A long-exposure photograph looks weird when taken of a moving, light-emitting object? HOW CAN IT BE?!

Looks like a missile that sprung a leak.

Geez aliens always fuck with the wrong countries, if i were an alien I would go visit nice friendly Canada, or nice all by itself with almostno one to help New Zealand.

Fuck it I'll go mess with China.. a heavily populated militarized first world nation known for its tolerance of outsiders..
