- The long awaited eruption of Mexico's collosal volcano
Popocatepetl ( name that means " Smoking Mountain" in old nahuatl
language) that took place last monday 18, brought not only fear and uncertainty
but also a unexpected event captured by merely accident. Today the main
headlines of local newspapers Milenio and Extramex present a photograph
of an unknown luminous flying object over the erupting volcano Popocatepetl
located near from Mexico City and Puebla. The spectacular photograph taken
by reporter Alfonso Reyes last tuesday 19 at 6:10 AM while making a report
of the gigant violent awakening present a bright luminous object that contrast
with the black clouds of smoke emanated from the volcano crater. The photo
was taken in a 20 seconds exposure time and a 24 mm angular lens according
to Mr. Reyes testimony. However he did'nt saw actually the flying object
and was until the development of the film that he discovered what the camera
captured. Due to the long exposure time the camera captured the luminous
descending trayectory of the object that seems to make a quick turn into
the crater direction. The possibility of a meteor was discarded considering
the described trayectory of the object and also no airplane or helicopter
were present in that place for obvious reasons.

This is not the first time that strange unknown objects have been seen
flying over this volcano. In June 29, 1999 the surveillance camera of the
CENAPRED, the goverment agency for disasters prevention was monitoring
Mount Popo taking pictures at time intervals. At 1:20PM the camera captured
a strange disk shape dark object very near from the volcano crater and
emerging among the smoke clouds. No explanation was given by the agency
at the time but researchers continued gathering photographic and video
evidences of continuous objects present over the smoking volcano. Certainly
the photograph taken by Alfonso Reyes deserves a serious and dedicated
analysis. Meanwhile this event as well as the others still remain unexplained.
