What is the Sky Made Of

 What is the sky made of?

Chunks of aluminum and other sparkly goo

Our intrepid traveler wanders through the poppies

shield by his trusty umbrella

He never leaves home without it.

UFO Friday

 Well let's just call today UFO Friday- UFO's have been in the news lately making headlines for transversing the country side and drawing fire from Air Force fighters. 

The term "UFO" stands for Unidentified Flying Object. It refers to any object or phenomenon in the sky that cannot be readily identified by the observer. While some UFO sightings can be explained by natural or man-made phenomena, there are many reports of sightings that remain unexplained.
There have been numerous reports of UFO sightings throughout history. However, it was not until the mid-20th century that the term "UFO" became widely used to describe these phenomena. In 1947, there was a highly publicized incident in Roswell, New Mexico, where it was claimed that an extraterrestrial spacecraft had crashed. While the incident was later explained as a weather balloon, it sparked a renewed interest in UFOs and the possibility of extraterrestrial life.
The Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) was a secret Pentagon program that investigated UFO sightings. The program was initiated in 2007 and ran until 2012. While the program's findings have not been publicly released, it has been reported that the program investigated several sightings of UFOs entering restricted American airspace.
There are various theories about what UFOs could be. Some believe that they are extraterrestrial spacecraft visiting Earth. Others suggest that they could be experimental aircraft or drones developed by governments or private companies. Some UFO sightings have been explained as natural phenomena such as meteors or weather balloons. 

While there is no concrete evidence to prove the existence of extraterrestrial life, many scientists believe that it is possible given the vastness of the universe. The search for extraterrestrial life has been ongoing for decades, and there have been several initiatives aimed at detecting signals from other planets. However, no conclusive evidence has been found to date.In conclusion, UFO sightings have been reported throughout history, and while some have been explained, others remain unexplained.

1953 Runway Corvette

 1953 Runway Corvette- If there's a runway it is almost mandatory to drive a car to the end of it and take some pictures.

Here is our 1953 Chevrolet Corvette at the end of 32R somewhere in the great American southwest.

 The 1953 Corvette started life as a concept car and eventually 300 were carefully assembled by hand in Flint, Michigan. These first Corvettes were powered by an inline six cylinder engine putting out 150 horsepower. Sports car lovers considered them to be underpowered. The first 'Vette did the quarter mile in 18 seconds and 0 to 60 in 11. Not very impressive, perhaps on a par with a modern four cylinder SUV.

There are only 225 C1 Corvettes left and a nice one could set you back $100,000 or more.
