There are two theories, and it's a mistake to conflate them.
1) The Glare Theory - which I think is very well demonstrated, and does not rely on the distant plane theory.
2) The Distant Plane Theory - Where there's a set of possible traversals...
I meant: strange, quirky, incomprehensible. Theories that look halfway reasonable, but are based on unstated complex assumptions. Once those assumptions come out, the theory just seems unsustainable. But it LOOKS good. Triangulation is a good...
I think those are more hypotheses than data. Triangulation, for example, rested on a heap of assumptions and seemed like something AI spat out without really understanding all the variables. Your continued insistence on its validity was, IIRC...

I've not watched it in full, but it seems to be Marik summarizing his old arguments from years ago, and adding in the odd theories from @Zaine M. from...
Lining up the city lights on a video a couple of minutes after that one:

Some reasonable matches. I am getting a lot more flares in the sim. I'd really like to get...
I think does narrow it down to the second plane, N440JA (or similar time). As the starlinks are too far to the East for the AA.
With this one, I set a target to keep that town (Jonesboro) in view, and you can scrub through to see how things...
I found the ground lights in one video:
https://www.metabunk.org/sitrec/?custom=1/KM Ground/20260413_170859.js
It could be either plane, and there's a range of points along the tracks that will look similar, but it narrows things down.
And Musgraves' "sick burn" (as UFOTwitter describes it) is not really a problem, as now 750K people have seen the real explanation, which is probably 20x the people who would have seen it before.
I didn't reply, as it's just silly. Also, I...
I was curious how long it would take the media to allow that, while sure, hers is a super fun story, a good, level-headed explanation exists. This morning, the Independent did...wonder how long she'll stick to her defensiveness...
To the subject ot this thread, I used Help/ADSB Replay for this time and Location. But this is particularly challenging, as we have contrails, but not planes. The contrails are only forming in particular region/altitude of the sky. So basically...

The time was displayed as 20:42 GMT, but it's actually BST (based on where Venus is), Then there are two planes that you can get the contrails (white) to...
Minor point, the first link is the most accurate (GPS altitude), but sometimes not available, and you just get an empty file. The second one attempts to calculate the first one using magic and is generally the best bet. The third link (altitude...
