- NATIONAL PARK SERVICE WEBCAM PHOTOGRAPHS UNKNOWN FLYING
OBJECT OVER U.S. CAPITOL: IMAGE WAS SENT OUT OVER WEB
-
- A webcam that sends images of the U.S. Capitol area over
the Web reportedly photographed an unusual unidentified object over the
area in the early morning hours today. The image was photographed over
the U.S. Capitol between approximately 3:15 a.m. and 3:30 a.m. EST Feb
10, 2005.
-
- The webcam is reportedly operated by the National Park
Service and is located at The Netherlands Carillon, on the Virginia shore
of the Potomac River, bordering the northern end of Arlington National
Cemetery and adjacent to The United States Marine Corps War Memorial. The
camera faces east.
-
- The image shows an apparently large, flat, metallic-appearing
object with the Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial and U.S. Capitol
building in the background.
-
- Among the Web sites that received the image was IntelDesk.com,
a site that carries international news feeds and satellite imagery and
specializes in global intelligence on international developments, science,
culture, economics, military topics and other subjects.
-
- A researcher with IntelDesk.com reported that he spotted
the image on the webcam feed at approximately 3:15 a.m. EST. After making
inquiries, the researcher determined that other people had also observed
the image on the same webcam feed. Subsequently, IntelDesk.com posted the
images on their site. The IntelDesk.com researcher contacted National Park
Service police as well as the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC).
-
- The images posted on IntelDesk.com and a link to the
photos appears on IntelDesk.com's main news page. The images can also be
accessed here
-
- Peter B. Davenport, Director of NUFORC (NUFORC.org),
also reportedly viewed the webcam image of the object.
-
- The webcam photo shows only a side view, so it was unclear
if the object was triangle or boomerang shaped or some other configuration.
-
- The incident was reported on the Web by UK-based ProFindPages.com
which carried the following story Feb. 12 and can be accessed via Google
News by typing in "UFO"
