First Crop Circle of 2011:January 23 Yogiakarta Indonesia

Indonesia Space Agency Pooh-Poohs Idea that Aliens Behind Crop Circle
Yogyakarta. Hundreds of curious visitors have flocked to a small rice field in central Java to witness what could be Indonesia's fist documented crop circle, an occurrence attributed by some to close encounters of the Alien kind.

Ngadiran, one of six farmers who owns the land in Slemen where the crop circle measuring 70 meters in diameter was found on Sunday afternoon, told the Jakarta Globe on Monday that he had not seen what had caused the distinctive pattern but others may have.

"According to several residents, they saw a tornado on Saturday evening. On Sunday afternoon, we saw the footprint in our fields," Ngadiran said.

He would not say if he believed that an unidentified flying object (UFO) was behind the crop circle, which contains a number of symbols.

The farmers have fenced off the area to prevent their fields from being trampled by sightseers, while police have set up cordons.

Thomas Djamaluddin, the head of atmospheric sciences and chief of astronomy research at the National Aeronautics and Space Agency (Lapan), doubted, however, that the Slemen crop circles were an indication that humankind had been visited by aliens.

"We will not send investigators to the scene because we suspect the crop circle involves human invention, not natural phenomena, nor scientific phenomena associated with outer space creatures commonly referred to as aliens," Thomas said.

Budi Waluyo, head of the Meteorology, Climatology and Geology Agency (BMKG) in Yogyakarta, said the agency had no records of a tornado in the special province or its surrounding areas on Saturday and Sunday.

He said even if a tornado did occur, it would leave a distinctive snaking trail, not a crop circle.

@Fierulxoxo This year alone has been ridiculous with UFO sitings. I wouldn't be surprised if one came through my bedroom window. Somebody believes!!

Crop Circles phenomena are "test cases" for smart people who study religions in toto, and the Aliens know that Yogyakarta should be the Center of Philosophia Perennis studies. They are better in Theology an technology than the most civilized human beings.

@conscienciatj yes, we approve that we are in contact with them for many years. Now , tomorrow morning go to your work and live like nothing has happened. Have a nice day... That's why they don't reveal it.

It has to be alien.Them lot aint got the brains to make one.

[tehPete]

@conscienciatj Control. If they ever accept the presence of Aliens or their involvement in ANYTHING, the majority of religions would shatter overnight, which would cause enough chaos on its own. The realisation people would then have, that they'd been lied to for all this time, would cause revolts against the established powers. It's not all doom and gloom though; left to their own devices, I think people would be much better off self-governed rather than having 'elected' officials governing us.
