This was reported to be known that neither we nor the Russians had put this into space.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of these reports, it supposedly became the object of study by a lot of people and organizations around the world. Over the years, various researchers, news reporters, Youtube videos and amateur astronomers have made various claims about it.<\/p>\n<p>It was reported to have first been seen and reported in 1958 &#8211; about the time of Sputnik but others have said it shows up in ancient writings as much as 13,000 years ago. It has also been reported that radio signals emanate from it and that Nikola Tesla was able to receive and decrypt those signals in 1898.<\/p>\n<p>The generally accepted theory is that because we did not know what it was or who put it up there, it was seen as a threat to be analyzed and monitored. This went on for years during which time it was not seen for long period of time. Meanwhile, our technology for tracking and photography got better and better so the next time it was seen, it was tracked and photographed extensively. All the data was sent to the Air Force center for analysis by the best methods possible. Or at least that is what has been reported.<\/p>\n<p>Those reports state that all that analysis paid off. They finally determined what it was and where it came from.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Fascinating, no? Read on for the slightly, ummm, <em>deflating<\/em> conclusion (yeah, I know\u2014sorry, I couldn\u2019t resist). Pics and vid included.<\/p>\n<p>Amusingly enough, a while back I read a sci-fi novel about a mysterious object yclept \u201cthe Red Knight\u201d which, thanks to the above, I now realize was a fictional analogue to the Black Knight of legend, which at the time I hadn\u2019t ever heard of.<\/p>\n<p>This Red Knight, see, was on its way to crash-landing somewhere in the Pacific Northwest, sparking a race to recover it amongst several sinister factions possessed of varying degrees of ill intent. As things worked out, the Red Knight had originally been put into geosynchronous orbit as Earth\u2019s sole effective defense against some malicious entity which wouldn\u2019t or perhaps couldn&#8217;t approach us as long as the Red Knight remained present and on the job to fend his malevolent ass off. Thus, the Good Guys had to obtain the object and get it back into orbit as quickly as possible, before the alien planet-devouring entity learned it had fallen and made its move against our lovely Blue Marble.<\/p>\n<p>I remember enjoying the book, but I can\u2019t for the life of me remember what it was called or who authored the blasted thing. Seems like maybe it was part of an ongoing series, I\u2019m thinking. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s?k=mr+forbes+books&amp;i=digital-text&amp;crid=1MHQYA3O8WDVE&amp;sprefix=mr+forbes%2Cdigital-text%2C101&amp;ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_2_9\">MR Forbes<\/a>, perhaps? I dunno, seems like the kind of thing he might write.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Triumphant update!<\/strong><\/em> HAAAAA! I found it, I found it! Turns out it was \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B017RBIZJ2\/ref=ku_mi_rw_edp_ku\">Red Knight Falling<\/a>,\u201d one of author Craig Schaefer&#8217;s fantastic Harmony Black\/Vigilant Lock series of novels, all of which I absolutely love. The Amazon write-up:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>FBI agent Harmony Black and her team, Vigilant Lock, face a new type of threat: one from beyond the stars.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019d always heard the Red Knight was an urban legend: in 1954, three years before Sputnik launched, a mysterious satellite was sighted circling Earth, though no power on the planet had such technology.<\/p>\n<p>But the Red Knight is real, and what\u2019s more, it\u2019s inextricably linked to a supernatural force no one yet understands. Like a moth to a flame, this dark presence collides annually with the airborne satellite. Except this year the Red Knight is on course to crash-land\u2026in Oregon.<\/p>\n<p>Vigilant Lock sets out to find the crash site and secure the remnants before the mysterious power is drawn to Earth. But they soon discover the mission is far from straightforward\u2014and they aren\u2019t the only ones tracking the Red Knight. To stop a deadly occult threat, Harmony and her team must use all their resources: technology and sorcery, science and magic. Fortunately, Harmony has only begun to discover her growing power.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I highly recommend all the books in the Harmony Black series, along with Schaefer\u2019s very-much-related Daniel Faust series. They\u2019re all fun, gripping reads, if you\u2019re into that sort of thing at all. Schaefer\u2019s Amazon bio, from the same page:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><br \/>Craig Schaefer\u2019s books have taken readers to the seamy edge of a criminal underworld drenched in shadow through the Daniel Faust series; to a world torn by war, poison, and witchcraft by way of the Revanche Cycle series; and across a modern America mired in occult mysteries and a conspiracy of lies in the new Harmony Black series. Despite this, people say he\u2019s strangely normal. He lives in Illinois with a small retinue of cats, all of whom try to interrupt his writing schedule and\/or kill him on a regular basis. He practices sleight of hand in his spare time, although he\u2019s not very good at it.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The occult; Vegas intrigue; cracked-open interstices between Earthly reality and Hell itself; official governing boards staffed and chaired by demons which require incredible feats of human derring-do performed by a slick Vegas magician who has some very powerful cards up his sleeve, all while managing his love-affair with one of those demons, a beautiful shape-shifting wench named Caitlin whose uncle is in a power-struggle with\u2026aww, never mind, I\u2019m getting too far afield with this.<\/p>\n<p>I ask you, though, what\u2019s not to like?
