I’ve been following and there some wild videos.

But also since it went a little viral, morons are posting videos of every light they see in the sky and making the whole thing seem fake to a lot of people.

I personally think it’s the US showing off technology to the Russians and Chinese.

Would be fun to use an A10 warthog gatling gun on those things.

Make sure to wear a covid mask around those drones. Those masks can stop anything.

Some people in the comments are saying it’s an out of focus star, but I’ve never seen a star color shift like that in the phone camera view. I will say what is shown on the telescope does look like an out of focus light source rather than the “true” form like they are claiming in the video.

I can’t really speak to any of the other videos you saw, but the one you posted is 100% a passenger jet on a landing approach.


I didnt post any video but like I said its hard to get perspective. Many of the videos look like passenger airplanes as far as shape and how they appear in photos but according to the observers they are like small models, flying low and cutting hard corners. Its really bizarre. now some very well might be just jet airliners IDK.

Are there other videos showing drones, or some sort of unknown aircraft pulling off crazy maneuvers?


Not crazy maneuvers like some that are reported on UAP's. They are not instantly accelerating out of site at mach 10 or anything. They are just turning hard or hovering while having the appearance of a fixed wing commercial aircraft that does not perform those kinds of maneuvers. The only planes I've seen that can do that are rc planes. Not all look like fix wing craft though.

Apologies, saw your response and thought you were the guy posting the Twitter vids. My mistake.

If you go back to the previous page you’ll see a video OP posted saying it’s “too low” and “too slow” to be an airplane. I opened the video and it was immediately obvious that it’s a helicopter.

I believe the reports of troubling drone sightings around critical infrastructure. But now you have every slap dick in New Jersey posting videos of conventional aircraft with alien emojis, while people like OP eat it up. It blows my mind.

Thanksgiving this year all my 77 year old mom would talk about was UFOs and some spheres at an airbase in the UK.
My 84 year old uncle showed up for dinner and all he could talk about was the Kennedy assassination and 911 being an inside job.
I was so ready to be home.

What I’m eating up is the congressional, the FBI, and local municipalities acknowledging that there is something.

Some of these videos are bullshite. Okay. Some are not and that is validated by the local and federal
Government acknowledging as much.

Yea there is a good bit hysteria and bs mixed in to what other wise seems to be an intriguing mystery. Most RC and drone hobbyist I know, especially those that would be flying large expensive models, wouldn't be the kinds of folks that would intentionally stir up shite or be provocative especially when law enforcement is involved with an investigation. They wouldn't risk their expensive equipment or their ability to fly. Its also being reported that when law enforcement tries to intercept them with there own drones that they go dark.
So either these are exceptional a-hole hobbyist having a fun time freaking folks out or as I kind of worry, its some group that is testing law enforcement's response and conducting surveillance in preparation for something else.

Yea Im familiar with all those cases. I've been a bit of UFO junky for 40 years so I spend several hours a week looking into the phenomenon. I dont believe that all these cases are necessarily related nor do I think all of our government agencies are utterly clueless. They do seem to be in the case of these things flying over New Jersey though and that is concerning.

The info you mentioned in your OP about these objects coming from the ocean, the Tedesco brothers are engineers working for the Galileo Project have been investigating that area off the east coat for a while now and have seen some and have video of some really strange objects that do indeed seem to be coming from off the coast. I dont think this is related to the recent drone activity but then again there seems to be a of mix footage with different types of craft. What the Tedesco brothers recorded were those weird balls of light that is a common sighting now a days. My best friend who lives in N.Texas, who is not a ufo guy at all, recorded some rather extra ordinary video of similar orbs flying low over his place a few months ago. It was just these bright orange yellow balls of plasma.. Slowly moving across the night sky. .really freakin weird . Pilots around Dallas have reported similar objects recently but at a much higher altitude.

Really there is a ton of stuff flying around in the skies now and in low orbit and most of it has a prosaic explanation but some of it doesn't.

I mean you’ve posted four videos in this thread that weren’t either news reports or interviews. Three of those videos are obvious bullshite (satellites in OP, passenger jet, helicopter) while the fourth is too blurry to tell one way or another. And then you’ve argued with people who pointed out that they were, in fact, satellites or airplanes.

Again - yes, I believe that there is legitimate concern about drone sightings near critical infrastructure and military bases. In the reports I’ve read, the concern seems to be a large number of quadcopter-type drones spotted in the area recently, particularly around Picatinny Arsenal. It’s entirely possible that the military is testing some sort of drone technology at Picatinny. It’s also possible that some adversary is doing reconnaissance, but it seems a bit odd that the drones would have lights if that were the case.

But it’s hard to take people seriously when they’re talking about shiny orbs or saying stuff like “they want it to look and sound exactly like a plane, but it’s definitely not a plane” while posting obvious videos of actual airplanes. Harder, still, when they try to claim legitimacy by saying “well the FBI is taking it seriously!” as if that means crackpot Twitter trolls taking pictures of airplanes and posting alien emojis is actually onto something.

I've been following for about 3 weeks because it is fascinating.

To the point of looking like a jet and the other like a helicopter. This was addressed today during the Congressional hearing by the Asst Director of the FBI:

quote:

During the congressional hearing, Wheeler said that the FBI doesn’t know the people responsible for the drones that have blanketed New Jersey in recent weeks. Wheeler said that based on verified eyewitness reports, some of the drones are larger than commercial drones, and are both rotary and fixed-wing craft.

Social media is on fire for the last 40 minutes with a story that a drone crashed in Parsippany, NJ a little while ago. Apparently RING sent out a notification in the area.


*Edit* just another hoax.

I'm just being honest.....as rediculous as that sounds that kinda seems the case for many of the videos I've seen . They have the vague shape or clear shape of a plane...with running lights, but you see how low they are without making that much noise, see them hover, see them turn 90 degrees. I think as is usual in lot cases involving wierd stuff in the sky the chaff and wheat are are not being sorted out so to speak..

What’s interesting is that energy field overlaps very closely with some of the stuff the guy from Blink 182 (Tom DeLonge) who partnered with Podesta on the UFO stuff has been talking about for 10 years related to a super advanced anti-gravity propulsion system being used in a similar shape of craft.

We truly live in the wildest timeline if the crazy guy from a 2000s rock band ends up breaking news related to reverse engineered alien tech.
