Mt. Popocatepetl (Mexico) Live Cam

Sighted on Wednesday 14. February 2001
Reported on
Shape: Disk | Duration: 35 minutes

((NUFORC Note: The witness was kind enough to send us digital still images of what she apparently has observed over the webcams. The tiny objects seen, and photographed, over the volcano appear to us to be short contrails behind high-flying jet aircraft. However, if the estimate of 35 minutes' duration is accurate, that does not appear to be consistent with aircraft, which would be out of the field of view of the camcorder in that amount of time. PD))For the past 3 days now I've seen some objects hovering over Popocatepetl Volcano for upwards of 15 minutes, on the Cenapred live cam.For the past 3 days now I've seen some objects hovering over Popocatepetl Volcano for long periods of time, on the live cam, and have been capturing series of still pictures. The first day the object actually came straight down from above the volcano and looked somewhat like a huge silverish colored cylinder. It took at least 15 minutes to make the descent and when it impacted Popo, whoever was manning the live cam actually zoomed in on the explosion. The next day I saw the same type of thing, only this time there was no explosion, though it looked like it would have impacted the top of the volcano. Then this morning I checked the live cam for any increased volcanic activity and couldn't believe it when I saw a disk shaped silvery colored object, at least the size of a huge jet or football field, approach from the left side of the screen. It hovered over the volcano at about a 45 degree angle for at least fifteen minutes, and once again, I captured the still pictures. The object today actually hovered up there in the steam and smoke directly above the crater for a long time, so I captured a total of 50 pictures of the thing. Each picture is about 25K so would have to be emailed separately, but I would send them to you if you're interested. This is from the Cenapred live cam and each captured picture has the date and time on it by Cenapred so you can see how long it stayed over the volcano, before it simply vanished. Please email me if you'd like any of the pics. I have series from 3 days in a row now. If not, you might want to watch the Popocatepetl live cam for yourself. I am concerned, because if this is some kind of attempt to control the volcano, it could have repercussions in other areas, affecting earthquakes, or at least the movement of magma below ground. Could they be experimenting? And what kind of craft could hover up there right over the volcano in those extreme temperatures and air currents for long periods of time without being destroyed???
