Is NSA Raining Spy Satellites Upon Illinois?

Meteors Shower Central Illinois and Missouri?

The skies of the Midwest were filled last Sunday evening with flashing lights, and the sounds of thunder - but this was no Winter thunderstorm. The State Journal Register reports..,

"People across Illinois and Missouri reported seeing the strange lights, which were attributed to meteors. Many reported bright lights with flaming tails behind them.

Some callers said they looked like a meteor shower, others compared them to a large fireball, and at least one person said it looked like a white ring in the sky, the dispatcher said. Deputies were dispatched to take a look, but finding nothing, they soon returned to regular duties, said the dispatcher, who declined to give his name.

The dispatcher sounded sincere when he was asked what he would do if someone said, "Take me to your leader."

"I'd have to take you to the sheriff, I guess," he said".

More interesting that the State Journal-Register's article written by Ruston & Reynolds are the comments being posted by readers to SJ-R's website.

Let's Look At Just One Comment Written By K9

"There have been sighting like this all over the world recently, it makes you wonder if this is a joke that people are running with? Or maybe Chinese space junk burning up on re-entry".

Let's ask ourselves this question. Which nations would benefit the most from the continued, and heightened belief in Unidentified Flying Objects as constructs of alien manufacture? Which nations would benefit most from a sense of uncertainty about aerial phenomena? Which nations possess the means and the motivation to create the international wave of UFO sightings which is currently taking place?

Nations Which Control Spy Satellites

• United States
• Russia
• France
• Japan
• China
• India
• Israel

Nations Motivated by Secrecy

• United States
• Russia
• France
• Japan
• China
• India
• Israel

Out of the list above the United States wins hands down when it comes to military expenditure. The United States spends more money on its military than the rest of the world combined. Expenditures for the NSA, CIA, and Military Intelligence are enormous. Quite obviously out of all the nations listed above the United States has the greatest means, and motivation to create a UFO sightings wave.

Means - Spy Satellite Deorbit

Short use spy satellites are not a new form of technology. In the past the United States used film based satellites which would eject canisters of film that would then fall from orbit, and be retrieved. The satellites themselves would also decay in orbit eventually burning up as they reentered Earth's atmosphere. Telling these satellites how, when, and where to burn up was simply a part of each satellites lifecycle.

As the United States moved toward long use CCD based imaging satellites few deorbits were necessary. However the United States still needs to deorbit aging spy satellites, and it also possesses short life spy satellites.

The way a satellite burns up upon reentry into Earth's atmosphere can be altered in several ways. When, and where a satellite reenters the atmosphere can be determined from ground control stations which direct the satellite's path. The angle at which a satellite reenters the atmosphere also will help determine how long the satellite will take to disintegrate as it deorbits. In effect the NSA could deorbit a satellite over the Pacific Ocean where few people would see it burn up, or it could deorbit the same satellite over a populated area. The NSA could instruct the satellite to burn up quickly by having the satellite reenter Earth's atmosphere at sharp angle, or have the satellite burn up slowly by instructing the satellite to reenter Earth's atmosphere at a shallow angle. This all goes to say that NSA can create wide spread visual displays over large geographic areas including brilliant light flashes, and thunderous sonic booms if it chooses to.

Why Now

We must ask why at this point in history is it necessary to create an International UFO sightings wave? Which new weapons systems are being rushed through development which would necessitate this?
.
.
Possible Systems Include

• Heavy Lift Stealth Transport Systems (huge flying triangular aircraft)
• Long Duration High Altitude Stealth Spy Blimps
• Unpiloted and Remote Controlled Vehicles (disk)
• Rapid launch and recovery spy and communications satellites
• Covert Military Space Plane
• Covert Next Generation Sub Orbital Spycraft
• Covert Next Generation experimental fighters and bombers
• Laser and particle beam weapons
• Kinetic energy weapons
• Anti Ballistic Missile Weapons Systems
• Weather Modification Systems
• Exotic Next Generation Weapons Systems (EMF weapons, sound weapons)
• Next generation propulsion systems

Conclusion

The covert plate is full. Many of the systems above have been in development for decades. I suspect the United States has aircraft, and weapons which would be more akin to the stuff of Star Wars than anyone would ever admit. When will the public get a peak? It could be another generation, or perhaps it will only take an all out war before these weapons are brought out of the closet. In the meantime keep looking up.
