Sitreced the skislope. It does seem to fit even better. Nice one @Starflint ! i think thats a {EDIT- this is wrong, see later posts} https://www.metabunk.org/sitrec/?custom=https://sitrec.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/15857/China Glowing... -

I think @Trailblazer 's post goes against a moon theory The seems to b very little motion smearing in the city lights. -

@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... -

Agree.
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... -

Disagree.
I believe it is called the Shirenzigou Bridge or Shirenzigou Grand Bridge, or in Chinese "Shi Ren Zi Gou Te Da Qiao". https://share.google/aMVcPxzA455mrL1Uk I think you have solved this one, it seems like a match. -
Z.W. Wolf replied to the thread A cigar-shaped unidentified luminous object captured on a Xinjiang passenger aircraft [Likely Ski Area].I have a radical idea. It's the Moon peeking through a gap in the clouds. I've seen that lots of times. The sky at that time and place. The Moon was just past full and about 98 percent illuminated. For reference is this case that...

A question arises: if it were a large bridge, it would connect extremely long highways, meaning the highway streetlights would also be very long and not abruptly cut off in a short segment as seen in the video. Additionally, the Shirenzigou...

Winner.
Indeed, some comments in the original video pointed out that it might be a ski resort, which is a plausible idea. However, the ski resort mentioned earlier was too far away, so I searched for a few ski resorts near Urumqi that align with the... -

flarkey replied to the thread A cigar-shaped unidentified luminous object captured on a Xinjiang passenger aircraft [Likely Ski Area].Numbers 2 & 3 dont fit, but this one looks like it could work. Its pretty close to the 'bridge' loctation, so the lines-of-sight from the plane might work too.

Matt33 replied to the thread A cigar-shaped unidentified luminous object captured on a Xinjiang passenger aircraft [Likely Ski Area].Here is a view from the tunnel entrance looking South. The tunnel entrance is lit by a couple of street lights. They can also be seen on Google Earth, but span only over a distance of about 200m. -
