Don't know about the validity of this report and it might be nothing once all the details are known, but it certainly sounds interesting at present.

Layman, It certainly does sound interesting but as you say, more information needs to be retrieved before any conclusions can be arrived at.
The report says that the "object" communicates in a strange language but to the Somalis, U.K. English or U.S. English would be a strange language, it may even be Russian.
It certainly deserves further investigation though.

It's probably from the phone company, those people go to any lengths to get you to sign up. And they keep talking so you can't say no. lol.

It sounds like something a bored newsperson might come up with after a few belts at the local watering hole.

Is there any further news on this ? has it been retrieved yet ?

I found one other article about it. http://www.shabelle.net/news/ne2633.htm its in a remote area.

Poor Camel :concussed

Ithink this might be worth keeping an eye on its occupying an area 100 meters square in the daytime it glitters and at night it turns light and speaks a strange language

Wouldn't it be a slap in the face if it was an ET probe, and instead of landing in Washington or Peking Or Moscow or London, the chose this spot as the most likely to have intelligent life? lol

It's the same article, but on a different news service.

So really there is still only 1 article.

Ithought more people would have commented on this we have something here on earth of unknown origin that's changing colour and emmiting a strange language for me that was weird enough but then to read it occupies a space of 100 meters square that's some size i wonder if the retrieval teams have got to it yet

It's just that if it were what the tabloid described it to be, there would be some other information or report about it, and there isn't. And I don't buy the whole 'it's too remote to reach' thing.
There is just nothing more to say. Blinking lights, speaking a weird language, a machine, killed a cammel when landed from the sky. That's about it. If people are close enough to see the lights and hear the sounds and distinguish that it's a language they don't understand, then surely they are close enough to investigate. If they are afraid, then SOMEONE will surely be either brave enough or stupid enough to still investigate. But this hasn't happened, or at least we haven't been told.

I'll bet the Project Blue Fly guys are either there or on their way

You would think that a crash of any object 100 meters across would be large enough to see on Google Earth. ( Which I have too old a machine to run very well. ) A crash would leave some traces even in a jungle type setting.

Has anyone heard of such a search?

I think google earth runs old sattelite images Watcher i dont think its in real time which is a shame. did you ever hear the words Blue Fly mentioned in your military career they're a top secret crash retrieval team that can can fly anywhere in the world in hours and be on the scene of crashed UFOS

The object is not 100 meters across. What they meant was that it is sitting in an area of 100 sq m around the object, where nobody dares to go for fear it might explode. The object itself might be the size of a car or smaller, for all we know. The article is quite badly worded.

As for Google Earth, I believe they are working towards replacing images every 6 months (one pass at a time). Even so, this is open to debate. Google just replaced the images of the Katrina Hurricane area with images of pre-Katrina satellite shots "to give people comfort".

Oskar, I never ran onto that name, Blue Fly. I did hear, just roundabout talk, about a unit that was called in to clean up things that were not for the public to hear about. I was under the impression at the time that it was in reference to operations that had went sour in a more earthly context. Still, the fact that there are units that have such "cleanup" duties does imply that there could be ones that are called in on UFO cases.

The military is very compartmentalized, so one persons knowledge is not 'bled over' into another area. Still, you can't stop GIs from talking. Sure, we heard about units for all kinds of things, but I can't recall Blue Fly being one of them.(There was a story that went around about a unit called the Blue Devils, and they were said to be a special operations outfit that traced down people with communist contacts and kill them. But who knows how much truth there was in that?)

And thanks Oskar and Senhaun for the info on google earth. I don't know if I've mentioned this or not, but I've only been on computers about 4 months now, so you could fill a book on what I don't know can and cannot be done. And worse, I'm a bit old for taking up new skills, so I make a lot of errors.

Bear with me please.

This might be a little off topic, but an interesting fact nonetheless:

Microsoft's version of the sattelite map has deliberately blotted out it's rival Apples' Headquaters on it's images (check the links, I believe it has been reverted by now).

These things are not just non-realtime, but also prone to deliberate editing.
