Unexplained Light Formation Spotted Above San Francisco's Mission Dist., page 1

Witnesses said the lights flickered on and off, then took different shapes.

“So in the beginning they looked like flying candles, and then afterwards they started making formations, triangular formations,” said Barrios.

Lanterns/balloons do not flicker on and off, nor do they form patterns, like triangles and diamonds.

This guy thinks it could be balloons too, which is ridiculous.

Bing Quock, assistant director of the Morrison Planetarium at the California Academy of Sciences said, “It’s not a planet, it’s not a constellation, it’s not meteors, it’s not the moon.”

Quock said there is a plausible explanation. “It looks to me like it could have been balloons, carrying lights,” he said.

They would not disappear and reappear and form triangles or shapes on their own, unless someone has a controller to them.

Take some coins and drop them on a table. Do they form shapes? Maybe a triangle or two?

Do they form shapes after they have been dropped on the table and stopped moving? Definitely a controller. Maybe night maneuvers of uncle sam or top secret aircraft.

Good and reliable footage.

Man in the video: "looked like firey..........floaty things........."

He's clearly not an ATS member, or he'd have used a different term.

What I do think is odd is that one of those lights seem to speed up more rapidly than the other ones to form formation..?

Are you sure you are not just looking at the internal reflection of the street light. It moved around when he moves the camera. Later there's some more reflections of the car headlights. They are all mirrored about the center of the video.

The slow moving light drifting along are probably Chinese lanterns.

A viewer told CBS 5 about some surprising video captured early Sunday morning in San Francisco's Mission District.

In the video, a series of lights fly in formation above the city before appearing to take a diamond shape and eventually disappearing.

Several commenters on the Mission Mission blog said that they had also noticed the aircraft.

The video, which shows seven lights in a row, was shot by Enrique Barrios with his cellphone.

"Looked like flame, you know, fireballs in the sky," Barrios said in an interview with CBS 5.

David Shelley took pictures as the lights hovered over him early Sunday Morning. "Kind of looked like a fiery, floaty thing," he said.

Witnesses said the lights flickered on and off, then took different shapes.

"So in the beginning they looked like flying candles, and then afterwards they started making formations, triangular formations," said Barrios.
