An interesting piece of footage from Alaska shows a sizeable UFO resembling a jellyfish floating across the sky close to a U.S. military base. Witness Sara Jane Osborn reportedly filmed the curious video, which came to light this week, on the evening of June 15th in Anchorage. While she and her husband were driving through the city, they spotted a vivid rainbow and pulled into a parking lot to take some pictures of the wondrous sight. The impromptu photo shoot took a strange turn, however, when something rather unusual suddenly appeared in the sky.
Initially annoyed because she thought a mosquito was ruining her picture, Osborn was disabused of that notion when she took a closer look at the aerial interloper and realized it seemed to be some kind of craft that sported 'tentacles' hanging from it. Fortunately, she managed to capture footage (seen below) of the UFO, which was only visible in the sky for about three minutes. "It disappeared almost as quickly as it came," she later recalled.
Although some have argued that the UFO could have been a kite, Osborn was highly skeptical of that explanation based on the object's size, movement, and the lack of a significant breeze at the time. Furthermore, she and her husband actually drove to a nearby park, from where such a prosaic object could have been flown, to 'test' that hypothesis. However, they found no sign of anyone who could account for the bewildering object they had just seen moments ago. "There was nobody taking down a kite,' she said, "people would have been there. The kite would have been there."
Providing an additional layer of intrigue to the sighting is that it occurred relatively close to Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, where various Air Force aircraft are housed. As such, the couple theorized that perhaps it was connected to the military base. "Maybe it's a drone-type thing," Osborn speculated before ultimately musing that "only God and the government" might know what the UFO was. To that end, what do you think the couple spotted over Anchorage at the start of the summer? Weigh in with your thoughts at the C2C Facebook page.
