UFO or ..

Not with FAA mandated navigation lights.

Hmmm, I said they are probably not UFOs but something tricking the eyes. They are human made drones about 6 ‘ in diameter and in more than one city.

I do know I’ve seen Chicago police fly drones at night.

Its not that I know everything, its that I don’t auto jump into conspiracies.its the most common human response that any unknown in the sky is UFOs.

Its not that I’m smart, its just those who jump to conspiracies ate frequently wrong.

The question remains, who is flying them? Seems to me if it were something rotten they wouldn’t be using lights.

Drones can be brought down simply by jamming the RF. They have devices to do so.

Some of you blame every single conspiracy on the opposing party. My toilet won’t flush, the it works. other party is up to no good. Yet ignore your party’s friendly association with enemies who would do this. Even inviting the said enemies to the inauguration. <crickets>

And there are no proven reports of these things changing anything. Its just a blown out conspiracy that blames the current admin.conspiracy theorist live FN because every day they have a one every single day to use as deflection from current news. The addiction to any port in the storm for daily anger to keep viewers off balance, and why they do it. It obviously works. And even knowing this they go back for more.

I don’t instantly think crazy stuff because I don’t listen to crazy stuff. How many times can a person be wrong before they realize they just listen to crazy stuff, always looking fir that one thing they are finally right about, ignoring the 500 things that were bs.

I’ll stay on the rational side of thought, thank you. I prefer not to jump to blind conclusions. Its not smart, its common logic, which is clearly fading in many. Sensation sells. How National Enquirer got rich.

I look at it a couple ways. The, to me, most logical theory is that there are several residents that have drones and are doing the flights at night to raise a bit of a ruckus and enjoy the chaos that has been developing. A more modern day prank if you will.

The second and least likely is that this is a psyop from an unfriendly govt. or organization (china / russia / drug cartels) using agents here thanks to dementia joe and the dems opening up the border. They are trying to cause disruptions in flights, civilian chaos and lack of confidence in our own local and fed govt agencies.

I don't worry about conspiracy theorists or their ideas. This is just what I came up with after watching a few news stories and seeing the pictures. The fact that there hasn't been a "shoot down" of the drones near a base using either directed energy (microwave etc) or frequency disruption by DOD tends to make me think the prank theory is more likely.

The fact that they didn't fly over Thanksgiving, to me atleast, says they are Fed/Military, since that is a federal holiday. If they were nefarious or from a foreign country, why would they care about TG? Smoking gun to me. If they were pranksters, they would have been caught already.

Now the fact that they won't tell us, is the weird part. Why don't they just come out and tell us these are operations. 

I just heard there's a new video at night of them over California now too.

It's interesting to say the least.

I'm wondering if there is some missing nuclear material and they are trying to find it.

Knock one out of the sky, whoever owns it will be beating your door down real fast

What if they can trivially pass through the matter of your door unseen and probe Uranus?

Reminds me of an unintentional prank we played on the fine citizens of Valdosta, Ga one night, while stationed at Moody, AFB in the F-4E.  We were doing night intercepts in the airspace (MOA) over downtown Valdosta at 20,000’ and above.  At some point, one of us two pilots (can’t remember which or admit to it) deployed a couple of flares to aid in the rejoin for RTB.  Thinking nothing of it, we rejoined and descended for landing.

The next morning the following headline was in the Valdosta newspaper;  “UFOs SPOTTED OVER DOWNTOWN VALDOSTA LAST NIGHT”.  It made for entertaining conversation in the squadron and at the bar the following Friday night.  Of course, it turned into an unofficial night rejoin “technique only” for some of us, purely for entertainment purposes only.

Then, some weeks later, I led a two ship to the Elgin AFB Fl bombing ranges to drop some BDU-33 (blue practice bombs) on a conventional bomb circle.  Since it was a pitch black night with no moon illumination and very few lights on the ground, we were taking our time being very deliberate in the bomb pattern and subsequent dive into the darkness. After dropping one each of our six BDUs on each pass, it was time to climb up, rejoin, and check in with Jacksonville Center for the trip back to Moody.  As lead, I was in a climbing turn and attempting to talk #2’s eyes on to me for the rejoin.  Getting frustrated with his “night blindness”, I told him to watch for an afterburner stroke.  We tried this twice.  He was unable to see our burner strokes, directly above him.  So, I told him to watch for something brighter.  Flare switch to “ON” and ripple away.  Over the radio, “Oh, there you are, right where you said you were”.

The next morning, headline in the Valdosta paper “UFOs REPORTED OVER THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE LAST NIGHT”.

Yeah, yeah, still collecting nuggets like this.  Haven’t forgotten, just wading through that real life thing, yuh know.  Patience, grasshoppah, patience.

Does that video I posted here look like it might be single engine jets going into afterburner one after the other ?
Is that how they would to that or would all four go afterburner at the same time?

The video is just a loop of the last 4 the wife caught on her phone but it happened exactly like that about 20 seconds before that clip for a total of 8 lights

Hi Eagler,

Could be fighters accelerating in burner and then coming out of burner.  Hard to tell for sure.

Just found the solution:

It's just future humans trying to catch Season 2 of "Time Traveling Bong" and the first shot of WWIII.
