just saw something strange *video*

i was outside in the garage smoking when i saw a very very fast orange light coming right at me.

it was very low silent and FAST

its very windy out so definitely not a drone.

the video is real time.



ETA start it around 1:08

The light starting at 1:10 seems like it is CGI, but the resolution of the video is so low the clouds look like CGI too. It is hard to say what it is, a plane maybe?

Thanks for filming it and posting it

I think a better camera is in order. I saw blobs in the clouds then maybe a plane. I dunno, but the video is way too grainy. Thanks for sharing.

As someone who uses a webcam to take night footage, doesn't look like CGI to me. Looks like low fps footage. But what it is, looks like a plane. That's not your footage though, is it? It's not coming towards you and it's over a minute before it's seen so was setup prior..

Either way, I still keep my cam pointed up and catch some very strange things.. we all should.

What the he'll is with auto correct turning CGI into ch8cken? Lol


edit 2: this new samsung tablet is really grinding my greats..

Don’t know where you’re located. But if you’re on the East Coast especially North or South Carolina. It could have been this .

But there are a few others at the link. You should give it a look .

Based in orbital evolution model and Solar Flux 135 (SF=135), the next space junk predicted to fall is BEEAGLESAT (Norad 42736U), forecast to reenter Saturday, 27 Apr 2019 at 03:02 UTC +/- 8 hours.

There was an update at the link. It said the satellite entered earths orbit at 0219 UTC.

So did you see it around 10:17 PM Eastern standard time ?

a reply to: penroc3

It looks to me like there may be two somethings flying together , it could be the wind may account for the perceived lack of sound.
I'd guess military somethings.

Looks to me like a meteor grazing the atmosphere. Orange color would make its composition sodium/nitrogen/oxygen.

Do meteors have aviation lights ?

a reply to: Fallingdown

very well could have been that

its from a security cam, in my backyard, i smoke in the driveway/garage area and if its really dark it gets that low shutter look. the ir illuminators wash the image out


gortex: looking at the video it does look like 2 thing, my eye just saw a blurry orange ball. the flashing at the end looked like aviation lights to me as well but could be an illusion.

a reply to: penroc3

Watched the video two times and it seems to be a military craft to me. Nice view though!
Great smoking if ya ask me.

Dang fast plane unless it was real close

It's not "coming at you" and do you always have that video camera set up there and running? Because it's ovbiously on a tripod or something (you're not holding it) and was already filming for a while before the light crosses the sky.

Other than those two obvious contradictions to how you've described what happened, it looks like a plane or a meteor.

Why no sound?

a reply to: penroc3
Oh, your not talking about those two things dancing about behind the bush in the middle of the scene.?

a reply to: penroc3

What time did you see the fireball ? That could be a determining factor on ruling out space junk . I noticed you posted a thread about quarter till 12. So the timing seems about right .

He said it's from a security camera, so I assume that is why there is no sound and it seems as if it is mounted:

It looks like lights rotating around the outside. Set your video speed to .25 and watch it like that, it's easier to see ..

a reply to: KansasGirl

its a security camera that's mounted to the outside of my house not a cell phone or camera. A


i'm not sure how i contradicted myself. did you read what i posted?


i was being kind of hyperbolic when i said it was coming right at me, it was very very close to going right over me.


the camera is in my backyard so it's obviously going to have a different point of view.

a reply to: Fallingdown

it took maybe 10 mins to upload and make the thread from when i posted it.

taking its speed and strange color it very probable it was the space debris

very cool i saw it, what are the odds. lol



ETA:
on the video it looks like it is below the cloud level but that could just be an optical illusion

So it seems, but my guess is still a plane.

Here's one I saw that freaked me out, but the camera was set to insane settings to catch the stars.. exposure and contrast, brightness off the charts..



look at that bleary eyed in a 10gb file, you are all
