Birds fly fast.

www.stanford.edu...

Generally birds follow the facetious advice often given to pilots -- "fly low and slow." Most cruise speeds are in the 20-to-30-mph range, with an eider duck having the fastest accurately clocked air speed of about 47 mph. During a chase, however, speeds increase; ducks, for example, can fly 60 mph or even faster, and it has been reported that a Peregrine Falcon can stoop at speeds of 200 mph (100 mph may be nearer the norm). Interestingly, there is little relationship between the size of a bird and how fast it flies. Both hummingbirds and geese can reach roughly the same maximum speeds.

LOL. How many birds do you know can fly 900 mph and veer to the left?

You being a mod does not automatically make you correct, you couldn't even post some screencaps to prove your point... Now, I agree this isn't some kind of flying saucer but just stating that, "It's a bird. I am a mod so I'm right." doesn't make it so and only harms your credibility.

I vote for insect flying fairly close to the lens, with the distortions due to it being out of focus combined a slow shutter speed and low quality youtube encoding. Pretty much like the whole "Rods" thing.

Where did I say that? Please copy and paste where I said those words. Thank you. Otherwise, you are completely just making things up.

He wanted a MOD to applaud, I said im a MOD and voiced why I dont think its that big of a deal - because its a bird.

I took screen caps. But I dont have video editing software to slow down and get proper shots. I told you how you can see wings flapping. Are you saying you did this and see no wings flapping?

You evidently didn't watch the entire video where the expert calculates that the object is 30ft long, 18ft high in the centre and travelling between 9000-16,000mph.

I don't think he is correct, but you should as a all-knowing moderator at least watch the entire video before dismissing people's arguments.

But the broadcast quality footage of this video was analyzed by the Marshall Space Flight Center, and what they said was that this object was 30ft long, 18ft thick, flying at an altitude of 500-700ft and travelling at 9-16,000 MPH.

You're basically saying that the experts at Marshall Space Flight Center are wrong on that? Or like the poster above said.. it's the FASTEST and BIGGEST bird I have ever seen. The analysis of the video even shows it goes behind a cloud and comes back out.

I watched the objects in the video. I didnt need sound. The sound has nothing to do with what is being seen.

And your rude remarks are completely unnecessary.

If you pause/play the video you can see wings flapping. I am not the only one seeing this. Its pretty obvious when you pause/play over and over.

There are no rude remarks at all, apologies if you have taken offence as none was intended.

Anyway, you asked in a slightly antagonising manner how someone knew it was travelling 900mph - I assume they typo'd the quoted 9000mph from the video, which you would have known if you listened to the expert analysis nearer the end. That is why it is relevant, and why you should have watched the video in it's entirety before calling someone out.

I guess you never listened to what was said during the video. If I recall correctly... when the tape was analyzed... the guy said the object had been estimated to have been travelling between 900-1600 mph. And why would all these people swarm down on him over something he had no knowledge of if the tape hadn't already been properly analyzed and authenicated? This guy lost his job over the fan-fare caused by this tape. It better not be a flippin' hoax... or he could sue the people behind the hoax.

The speed was 9000-16,000 MPH. A lot faster. And the Marshall Space Flight Center said that... not some Joe on the street.

I stand corrected on the speed. And so it ain't no flippin' bird.
