VIDEO: A UFO in San Juan Capistrano? You Be the Judge

The recording is sharp. But does it show aliens on holiday, glow-in-the-dark, fast-moving geese or military planes in formation?

Laguna Niguel seems to be the UFO capital of Orange County, but that doesn't mean there aren’t some wondrous sights in the skies above San Juan Capistrano. 

Some of those aliens might fly through our humble village to get to Laguna Niguel, right?

In fact, a new video showed up on YouTube supposedly shot in San Juan Capistrano on Aug. 25 (we don’t see any of our telltale landmarks). The claim is that it's an Unidentified Flying Object. Well, we agree -- we can't identify it, and it appears to be flying.

But forgive us if we're not going to shout from the mountaintops that it's the real deal. We’ll leave that to the experts. We do live near a military base, after all!

We especially like how this organization, Extraterrestrial Skywatch, is looking to make contact only with “enlightened extraterrestrials.” All you low-achieving, low-class trailer-trash ETs can go cloud surfing on another plant, thank you very much!

Not long after the San Juan Capistrano video was posted, came along two photos of UFOs over Laguna Niguel.

Order has returned to the universe!
