What about the “UFO Sighting” in Bangalore?
There was a most intriguing news item about a “UFO sighting” in Bangalore:
But nothing much has been heard of about it after that…until, on a related note, someone on a mailing list I belong to, posted this:
“On Tuesday night at around 09:00 PM I was driving on Hosur road and turning
left towards St. Johns hospital road when I saw something bright moving on
the sky. This would have been in a southerly direction on the map. This
looked too small to be an aircraft and too big to be fireworks. Erased in
from my mind till this mail. However the reports cited say Monday while this was Tuesday.”
And someone else posted these links to “flying chariots of ancient India”….!
Oooh… well isn’t there supposed to be some historian school of
thought that records space ship flights in ancient India?

Any ideas about this, anyone?
hey no kidding, I saw something bright on Monday late evening, about 8:30 pm. It was like a bright lit thing in the sky coming east from north-west (from Whitefield, looking up towards north Bangalore, it was coming east). It seemed a bit odd because the light was too bright for planes (so used to see them land from skies above Whitefield). God knows, may be I saw the same UFO these reports are talking about :)
duders … the truth is out there!

I’m sorry, “blr bytes”, that was a private mailing list and I am not at liberty to quote names in a public forum.
If you say so. But I still disagree.
Of course you can disagree…!
And…just went to your blog and am enjoying your posts very much, Blr Bytes!
I suspect what blrbytes meant was that the last piece of your post looks like you’ve written it, whereas it is a quote. The easy way to fix that is to enclose the quoted portion in the BLOCKQUOTE tag, like
The group you refer to is publically archived here, incidentally:

So not quite that private. :)
I guess it must be the weather balloon. Being the monsoon season, the weather department must be busy sending the weather balloons up into the sky. I saw a similar thing in chennai (swinging lights, moving slowly) but was later informed thatit was the weather balloon.
Amazing links, Deepa!
This particular subject has been fascinating me for aeons. There have clearly been tremendous scientists, since antiquity. Ayurveda is another element of that brilliance. Still in practice today, because it WORKS!
