@NoParty - totally agree. The problem with all these sightings of unidentified amorphous objects is that's its very hard to actually prove that they are anything in particular. This is often used by the pro-bunking community to deflect or reject...
The videographer replied to many people in the comments section addressing similar doubts, saying he can distinguish what is a reflection, which is why he filmed closely against the window. Additionally, if that thing were an internal reflection...
Good news, although I didn't obtain the screenshot of the video source file information, I received a reply from the videographer: the video was filmed at approximately 9:45 PM Beijing time on January 4, 2026, with flight number China Eastern...

Ten times more significant, however, is my deep, deep, deep appreciation...
I’m struggling to match the view with the map view - there seems to be a prominent grid of streets that don’t align with anything on the satellite view as far as I can see. The right-hand red line you have added there marks a road in the photo...

Perene, your contributions here have devolved into a Gish Gallop.
You are attempting to overwhelm the discussion with a long list of speculative scenarios while ignoring the empirical data already provided.
On a skeptical forum like this, we...
Exactly, a few hundredths of degrees is what you force in Sitrec, from the distance between (what you consider) the top of the clouds and the object. But cloud motion angle suggests significantly more, a few tenths of degree.
Cloud motion is...

By asking this, I presume you have neither the context of the sighting, nor read the thread, nor read my previous reply.
The context of the sighting matters. They were exhausted from work, possibly dehydrated, and stressed from the warning they...

Of course it does, the evolution of elevation angle in the reconstructions (a few hundredths of degree) depends on the assumption that we follow a same cloud line, at the exact same elevation angle. Very uncertain without knowing where the...
