Yes, ATS already covered this it seems. You can believe it is space junk, but the time frame is right for the SR-91 and if the Aurora was seen from orbit it would probably look much like this. The SR-91 is probably already obsolete replaced by scramjet technology like the X-43A demonstrated:

I simply posted the images to get opinions, which I got lol. Of course, if it was a UFO or secret aircraft pic leaked to the public, tptb would surely say it's just a piece of debris or swamp gas.

No, I'm 100% certain that no one at all would call that picture swamp gas.
Why that would even enter your mind is extremely perplexing and is saying a great deal about your mindset on the subject.

Staying on the subject of triangular mystery craft, does anyone know the origin of the photo I attached? It was linked to a Joint Recon Study Group article, but no details on what is pictured. Looks to be a real aircraft.
