Richard888, that would be Trevor James Constable who wrote The Cosmic Pulse of Life: The Revolutionary Biological Power Behind UFOs. Published about 30 years ago, with lots of fuzzy images taken in the desert using quartz lenses.

There is a US researcher who believes in Wilhelm Reich’s orgone energy, uses cloud busters to attract biological UFOs, has used infra-red photography to classify the “denizens of the upper atmosphere” and wrote a book with a title similar to Biological Propulsion Of UFOs. Unfortunately, I don’t remember his name.

Trevor Constable not withstanding, this sounds more wishful thinking than cryptozoology to me.

Still, as anyone who has seen one of the really big Chinese dragon kites move through the sky knows, there _ought_ to be such critters (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvCIeWlJdms). In the words of Winston Churchill, “It is all true, or it ought to be; and more and better besides.”

That’s crazy!!! I had the same idea yesterday. I mean about if UFO’s could be cryptids… Awesome!!

Seriously if it were another time, me and Loren would have been burned by some clergy…

A type of air jelly (jellyfish)?

I am definitely willing to consider the possibility of such an exotic life form. People have reported all kinds of interactions with light phenomenon over the ages, and often explained them in some sort of paranormal or religious context… but interpretations like these are not necessarily objective, to be sure.

For another interesting look at aerial lights that defy explanation, and are intriguing to ponder, check out Project Hessdalen.

Nowadays I’m more skeptical of the ETH (Extraterrestrial Hypothesis) as the panacea that was used to explain all sorts of unexplained aerial phenomena.

And, with recent scientific studies pointing out to how adequate plasma is as a medium to store information the same way our biological DNA does it, the idea of ‘living’ plasma entities doesn’t strike as impossible.
