The "tentacle" appearance of an unidentified
\nflying object (UFO), such as one reported over a wind turbine farm near
\nConisholme, England, on Jan. 4, 2009, may have been "constantly changing,
\ntorque-generating plasma beams" related to an exotic propulsion
\nsystem.<\/p>\n
An experienced American scientific researcher has proposed that
\nthe "jellyfish" or "octopus" visual effect that some witnesses have reported in
\nthe UK and United States could actually be what is called a
\n"magnetoplasmadynamic" or "magnetohydrodynamic (MHD)" field.<\/p>\n
Ray
\nStanford, a pioneer in studies of UFOs by use of optical and electronic
\ninstrument systems said that, "Although some UFO-generated physical phenomena
\nmay, through human mind's ever-interpreting 'lens,' look 'organic' (as though
\nwhat was observed is something alive), that absolutely is not the
\ncase."<\/p>\n
According to Stanford, this tentacle-like effect is "most often
\nand readily visible when a craft is either slowing down or moving very slowly
\nover an uneven surface."<\/p>\n
And, he prefers the term "anomalous aerial
\nobjects (AAOs)" to the more common term "UFO."<\/p>\n
JELLYFISH
\nEFFECT<\/p>\n
Stanford says there is often a "pulsing" visual effect associated
\nwith some anomalous objects in our skies, but the "jellyfish" appearance is not
\nthe object itself.<\/p>\n
He has even seen this effect himself and filmed it on
\nseveral occasions.<\/p>\n
Stanford stated, "The 'jellyfish' phenomenon
\n(contracting and expanding at a rate highly reminiscent of a jellyfish pulsating
\nin water) was first filmed (8 mm daylight movie) by me at 12:55 in the noon hour
\nof Sept. 18, 1956."<\/p>\n
He recalled, "Three of us there about \u00bd mile from
\n'Giant Rock' [in southern California's Mohave Desert] each saw the phenomenon
\nsurrounding the descending craft, until two jets from Edwards Air Force Base
\nchased it away. And even as we watched, we compared it to each other as looking
\nlike a jellyfish pulsing in water." <\/p>\n
However, Stanford and his associates
\nfelt they knew what it was. "Fortunately, we had enough background in science
\nthat we realized it was really a pulsating magnetoplasmadynamic (some use the
\nterm 'magnetohydrodynamic') field, visible due to light-emitting plasma (and\/or,
\nsimply ions) contouring the object's magnetic field." <\/p>\n
ANOTHER EXPERT'S
\nVIEWS<\/p>\n
He explained, "The pulses, per se, occurred mostly during the
\naborted descent. How so? I asked Dr. Jean-Pierre Petit about that during the
\n1976 CUFOS [Center for UFO Studies] conference in Chicago. I spoke there about
\nmy project's studies of UFOs using optical and electronic instruments at Dr. J.
\nAllen Hynek's request."<\/p>\n
Stanford also noted, "Petit was taking questions during his very
\nimportant presentation titled 'Magnetohydrodynamic(MHD) Aerodynes' (See pages
\n201-233, Proceedings of the 1976 CUFOS Conference). Had UFOlogers at-large
\nstudied Petit's paper, they could be much farther along in understanding UFO
\npropulsive physics." <\/p>\n
Stanford said that Petit "explained that in steady
\nflight, conditions are such that MHD flow is stabile and shock-free, but in, for
\nexample, descent, this must be constantly altered for several reasons. Resultant
\ninstabilities of the MHD flow create shock disturbances which must be constantly
\ndamped, so we see the pulsed interplay between increasing instabilities and
\ndecreasing instabilities in the MHD flow around the craft." <\/p>\n
Stanford MOVING FORWARD<\/p>\n The explanations provided by Stanford and Other elements of the phenomena continue to be somewhat For average people, legitimate researchers, the news The No matter what the levels of As more developments occur, and more understanding is achieved, the NOTE TO READERS:
\nadded, "It looks as though a craft is breathing, but that is only an
\ninterpretation the human mind makes in searching for analogs. In such case, it
\nis a big misinterpretation. Likewise for the 'tentacles,' which are really only
\nconstantly-changing, torque-generating plasma beams. But, they can bend under
\nthe 'Lorentz force' and other forces \u2013 see:
