sighting: A grey metallic boomerang passed almost directly overhead, and had a strange motion that you can view
with a graphing calculator. In parametric mode, let x=4cost+5cos(3t) and y=sin(3t)+t. The only difference is that
the boomerang was not apparently moving up or down, but otherwise was identical to the graph. I tried following
it on my bicycle, but I just couldn't keep up. It was only by chance that I saw it, I had been looking at a high
flying passenger jet and saw this glint that was moving very slowly. It also made a turn during its 'flight', shortly
after which I lost view of it completely. Since then, I have contacted two Sandia Labs scientists, one retired.
The retired man has seen military operated UFOs before, and confirms their existence. The other scientist told
me that I was most likely seeing the sewage jettisoned from a passenger jet. Whatever!! One last thing, it was
incredibly difficult to see due to its small size (due to altitude, physical size?), and I doubt any other sightings
would exist. Naturally, no sound was existent.

Comment from Webmaster:
Most of this sighting report sounds genuine, but that gobbledegook about a graphing calculator-come on!
