I watched a little documentary type show about how drones are a huge problem with soccer games in England. People love flying drones into the stadium to get footage, etc

The grounds crew has a device that they point in the direction of the drone (doesn’t have to be a direct hit) where it instantly kills the drone because it shoots off some invisible microwave.

If they can do this for a soccer game, surely we can do it for threats and safety

Some of these in Jersey were over a military base. The govt seems not to be very concerned about them.

That looks like a farmer ate some shrooms and watched his kids play jacks while tripping balls.

They’ve been around a long time. Why do y’all think Carter cried when debriefed in UFOs? His world was rocked.

on a (64x) time-lapse video


Go set up a camera near a major airport and then run it back at 64X and it will look like an alien invasion.

Edit: Also, for people that don't know, at 64X a 3 hour video can be shown in under 3 minutes.

And "near" isn't as close as you'd think it would need to be for this to be the case.

The NJ mass hysteria is hilarious. One small contractor doing actual work for the Army. There’s a TFR issued.

But now every idiot with a camera is filming airliners and jets going into Newark, Teterboro, and LaGuardia and saying it’s UAPs. Even when lights match airliners and you can hear the jet engines.

I don’t know what else you’re referencing, but the “orbs” in your OP are 100% satellites.

We were watching stars by the fire the other night. Ended up noticing dozens of those satellites passing by in straight lines/orbits. They pass by all day too, but you cant see them in daylight. We are being watched.

If it was the Chinese, why would they be lit up like Christmas trees?

Bruh.

Screenshot from the video you posted:


It clearly has wings, a fuselage, a vertical and horizontal stabilizer, navigation lights, and landing lights. But “definitely not an airplane.” OK.

It’s about the size of a car and does resemble a plane, but gets about 100-150ft off the ground, hovers, over trees.

Conveniently not in the video you posted? It’s clearly landing (hence the landing lights) which is why it’s flying low.

It was only a matter of time before drone warfare became a serious problem for us. Those things are scary.

After the attempted Trump assassination, the founder of private military company Blackwater (Erik Prince) was on the Shawn Ryan podcast, and he said that the newest threat would be swarms of drones carrying explosives like we see in Ukraine, where they can be brought in by one bad guy inside a backpack, deployed from a couple of miles out, and programmed to fly in from multiple directions to their intended target.

For things like high-value political targets, countering these are a work in progress — like with signal jammers and actual, physical deterrents — but for the rest of us (like at a large crowded event), we currently have absolutely no way to stop it.

Why doesn't Jersey or the UK look like the Iron Dome?


If what observers are saying is true, and these things are the size of small cars, then taking them down over residential areas is probably not the safest idea.

This whole thing is really weird. If its hobbyist clowning around then they are spending a great deal of time and money ..and now risking possible jail time and fines for a stunt. If its some foreign group testing our responses than this is extremely worrisome. As with similar waves of UFO type events there is a mix of sightings. Folks in the area are now recording everything they see flying around so some of it of appears to be regular air craft while others not.

Funny you should say that. It’s apparently being used but only to disable hobby drones. People were trying to fly their drones up to see these things and they won’t work. Change the batteries and they still won’t work.

I don’t know what to tell you. It’s been verified to not be a plane. I’m not in Jersey. Someone in this thread is in Jersey and said it’s crazy. Ask him if it’s a plane.
