Like.
I am willing to believe that, but have never noticed it nor heard it mentioned -- is this based on personal knowledge of helicopters, or can you share a source? NOT disbelieving you, it's just that if I am going to explain this to somebody... -

Informative.
This isn't quite right. ADS-B Out is required in certain airspace as defined by 14 CFR 91.225. Mainly, it's your larger airports (Class B and C, including a 30 NM "veil" for Class B airports). And yes, for anti-smash, you get it. To others... -

Adding to what others have said, I would not expect to necessarily hear a helicopter on a windy night. How sound propagates depends quite a bit on environmental factors. When I first saw this video, my initial thought was that it looks exactly as...

Lights in the sky must be either natural or artificial. Something in the air or near Earth with clearly visible, regularly strobing red and white lights is unlikely to be natural. Artificial lights in the sky come from many sources. All known...

OK - lets get the location right. I filmed this NJ drone video in Seaside Park, NJ, not Seaside Heights. The reason I posted my drone or potential UAP video here because I saw that it had been discussed here a fair amount at the time it was...

NorCal Dave replied to the thread Fergus Falls Lights.A decent sized chunk of space junk: The incident was largely forgotten until the last few days, when a farmer in rural Minnesota discovered something unusual while combining his cornfield for the fall harvest. A circular metal object about 11... -
Don't worry about it! We have a long-running joke about people saying "it's not X" basically guaranteeing that it is X, so you're not the first person this happened to, nor will you be the last. You provided good data (including...

I took 3 screenshots once. Where it appears, is there in full and disappears again. In the video it is from second 52 and goes up to second 58.

Just to point out something I noticed that might aid future readers of this thread when looking at something similar... The brightness of the mystery light fluctuates as it passes across the clouds, getting brighter where the clouds are thinner...

Don't be sorry, your observation report was excellent.

You provided all the information that was needed for a swift identification, all is good. OK, Mick and flarkey are absolute wizards at this, but still, sometimes it has to go via a shortlist before they find a positive ID. To be honest, you made...

It was my mistake with the statement about the ISS. I had tried to reconstruct it with the AI and relied on the data used. This was the mistake. She had used the time of a planetarium, which was indicated as 21:21. This did not fit within my time...

John J. reacted to Matt33's post in the thread Mystery lights on Swedish wildlife video (light on spiderweb?) with Like.
Some time ago those "rods" (flying bugs, long exposure) made the rounds on the internet as interdimensional beings or something like that, alongside with their cousins, the "Orbs" (dust refections).

John J. replied to the thread Debunking Humor....Arguably features in a surprising range of rock and pop stuff. Lou Reed's Walk on the Wild Side, Kraftwerk, Black Grape, Wet Leg's Chaise Longue.
