A strange spraying cylinder UFO

i'd guess its a missile. Either a test or...
Hard to know the location of this event.

That is most certainly a Cruise Missile. Don't ya think?

Missiles don't usually fly near population, unless it's during combat.
So the next logical thought would be a test of some sort.

So we gotta ask a few questions:
What sort of missiles does Italy have?
Were there any tests that day?
Why was it so close to population?


Could it be one of these?
The Otomat

The other two questions I'm not sure if we'll find an answer.

Hi Nola213: almost certainly that wasn't filmed thought a telescope, but i'll try to get in touch with the guy who filmed it (imshrike, a fellow member, can contact him) in order to ask for more details. This is its description:

That's right! Being an avid sky watcher, I can confirm that this so-called "cylinder UFO" is just a standard airplane.

Here's one of my own photographs compared to the "UFO". The brightness of the plane's hull pushed my camera and its lens to the limit. Observe how the wings have seemingly dissapeared, how the glare makes the plane appear larger than it actually is, and finally, the red lens flare.



Finally, here is a picture of what 'Prophet Yahweh' claims is a "cigar shaped UFO". Pretty similar, eh?





If an object is high enough, will it not reflect the sun at almost any angle/direction?

Thank you for making my point.
Most likely explanation is indeed an aircraft. Good photo I was tired of waiting for the plane.

This a recon missile. Latest in military intel tools. This flys through the area taking images of the surrounding area. The split part is actually the end of the missile and the flames.. the flames are blue... tried to google some information but didnt find anything online... however, 2 years ago this topic was brought up... looks like this is the testing faze..

after further thought...my observation was not correct.

The video is pretty cool, it could possibly be a prototype drone or missile but distorted by heat or light, who knows. A+ vid though

Or it could be a plane like the one 3 posts up

Could it be some sort of satellite launch or other space program launch (or test)? It's reminiscent of a two stage rocket of some kind in my mind. At one point it almost looks like there's some sort of a booster attached as well.

It looks like a cruise missle. look on youtube.

The video that is being compared with a plane, is NOT the one of the OP.
THIS is the one of the OP

YouTube Link

Regarding the comparisons with this video, that is NOT the one of the OP

YouTube Link

could please someone to outline the wings, the tip, the tail, the contrails in some screenshot of the video? I don't see anything like that, and actually the comparison that i see some posts above seems to confirm that the object was NOT a plane, unless i'm missing something: in the photo of the plane i see all: wings, rudder, contrail etcetera, in the screen-capture from the video i don't se anything of that: am i the only one?
The closest airport, (Nice), is 43 miles far away, and even if that would explain the take off, where was it supposed to LAND? It draws a parabol, its path is firstly ascending, then horizontal, then descending (unless it was used some camera angulation trick, which can't be ruled out due to lack of points of reference) but that wouldn't explain the shape, anyway):


and anyway before calling it plane i would like to see... the plane, with its wings, its rudder and all the rest: ah, and some valid explanation about the total absence of contrails, of course. Alternatively, i would like to see some shot of a plane that looks like that, and i havent seen one so far.

The problems with this video are other ones, IMHO:

first, the object looks to be unvisible to the naked eye, so i wonder ho the cameraman has been able to spot it before zooming (and it's obvious that he did zoom KNOWING where the object was)

second, the video ends in the most interesting part with no apparent reason, so it doesn't show neither where nor how it landed/crashed:
and these are both red flags, IMHO.

I don't think that some RC stuff can be ruled out, including some nice toy, but also military activities are continuosly reported from the area, including planes with no insignas, so who really knows? I believe it to be man made, but i could be wrong.
Just my 2 cents

Wow. This is exactly like what we keep seeing here, in the early morning just at sunrise. Over and over my hubby and I have seen this thing taking different paths, it looks just like the one posted here. Thanks for the post!

Slow down there......You can "confirm" that this is an airplane? Your photo, although a bit obscure, clearly has photographic outlines of the the wing and tail of the aircraft. This video shows a streak of light that is not (in my opinion) suggestive of anything extra-terrestrial, but it is not suggestive of an airplane either. If it IS an airplane, then it has no running lights, no wings or a tail, and has a fuselage that is uniformly lit from front to back. If the glow of the fuselage were due to the sun reflecting, it seems like there would be some suggestion of wings and a tail, given that the camera was tracking this thing for around 2 minutes. I don't consider this a very interesting sighting, but it does not look like a plane to me.

Somewhere there is a pilot laughing at everyone who thinks this is anything but an airplane.

Border line rediculous, but whatever just enjoy.

Maybe the elite have found a more efficient way to spray us.

In my opinion, both videos are caused by normal airliners, at relatively high altitude and from a distance. The sunlight reflects off the white fuselage, causing the grey wings to be washed out. The grey wings, themselves, are difficult to spot as they blend into the sky very well - this is why military aircraft are usually grey. The same may of happened with the tail of the aircraft, too.

That being said, the trail in the first video looks very strange, and very unlike a contrail - they usually form about one plane length behind the plane. The second one appears like it may be climbing then decending like an arch, as you said, but it might just be an illusion. The plane could of been turning right? Still, it is strange.

Great finds, keep on filming the skies!

Now THESE are explanations that make sense
I've also mentioned in my previous post that it may be a trick of the cameraman: the absence of grounded points of reference impeed any possible assesment so the camera could have rotated in order to get the parabol trajectory effect. And regarding the appearance, and the apparently missing parts, it all makes sense as well: there has been the case of the "missile" allegedly spotted in Flight Over Utah that turned out to be jet airliner with dark colored wings.

Besides, as said many military activities in the are continuosly being reported.

could be a UAV! But i think it has somethig scientific about it! Possibly chemtrail device. But i don't know!

Deffinately nothing from outer space!

thanks for the reply internos. Now that you say it was almost def. NOT shot through a scope, I gotta take your word on that. As you have the ey for these things.

However after looking at the stills of the same craft from the video, have you ruled out the possiblity of it being an antique propellar driven plane, shot from the underside? Think Red-Baron , but maybe not a bi, or tri wing, just a single wing(did they even make those?) hehe I'm not an aviator buff,although I do build models, but I'm only familiar with the dozen or so I've built, A-10 Warthogs (most beautiful plane ever made), f-15 Tomcats (which were built at grumman, a stones throw from where I grew up in LI, NY),F-16's, F-18's, ect.

I see you mention the possibility of an RC plane. That's also a good guess.

As for the Original Video.....in the topic:

I would find it ALOT more interesting if it wasn't leaving a half mile long contrail. I mean, are aliens going back to diesel? (as one member posted?)
Looks like some sort of missile, and with the number of types out there...., gonna be tough to pin down without clearer pictures.

Thanks again for replying.
