Can you explain why you think it is a cloaked aircraft.
I would really like to know,
I don't know. Maybe because it appears to be flying through the air, invisible to the naked eye?
At first I thought he was creating the spectacle, but I do not think so now.edit on 22-8-2011 by ThinkingCap because: (no reason given)
And you ruled out a thermal bubble and jumped straight to little green men because?

Gullible? Speak to yourself, I am not the one jumping to conclusions, this really could be anything - but instead of contributing you seem much more comfortable knocking a video that you seemingly haven't even watched.
I'm not here to suggest it is little green men, I'm passing on something interesting I found.
I bet this could be replicated using warm water and some soap and blow a bubble.
Let it drift in the wind. It will appear like an orb and pusate and show up on the IR thermal camera and disappear when the IR is off or when the water cools down to ambient tempterature.
You jumped to the conclusion it is a cloaked aircraft.

The guy has 63 videos with comments disabled, looking at a handful we see blatant birds. He's got eyes as well as a camera and must know he's seeing birds. In one film, he describes how they are one object because they don't break formation when they bloody well do!
That's why I'll opt for a bubble hypothesis over him managing to capture a genuine UFO in one of 63 videos. I had another look and agree it doesn't pop...kinda fades.
Gotta say I like Grimsley's one with the triangular formation of lights and would enjoy a chance to capture something similar if I had the good equipment.

No...you're obviously trying *much* too hard to outright discredit the video, discredit the member posting the video, the content of the video, the entire subject of Ufology (to which the video alludes to) to be a genuine scientific skeptic.
When you don't get a 'bite', you repeat, repeat and repeat again, and then voila! at last a little nibble...a few tentative stars awarded, no doubt from either the old faithful outright (non skeptic) debunkers, or from sock accounts, or perhaps short-sighted members who respect tenacity, and then a few more members take notice and...a bite.
The term 'little green men' is or was most commonly used as a derisory and mocking tactic, designed to elicit the ridicule factor among readers, and of course formally among viewers of 'pliant' news corporations that would obediently spew the official line re: UFO's and cheesy grin would always appear on cue.
Discredit the subject, add in a little ad hominem side-swipe to veer off track and persuade OP to withdraw for fear of ridicule or set him on the personal defensive, the thread may then fizzle out or descend into arguments and diversion from discussion about the video and content, and possible conjecture of any ramifications that may result.
Jesus H..you people really need to come up with new tactics, yours are just so old, weak and unsophisticated. Granted, elements of the crude psychology are still vaguely effective, even in the modern communications age, although the general thrust has much less impact in today's internet driven world of reporting such phenomena, than it did back in previous radio/TV only decades.
Thanks go to the OP, i too find the video interesting, if inconclusive (of course).
Although i find it interesting, and worthy of closer scrutiny so that is what i intend to do. I'm not so closed minded as to immediately write the content off as anything that springs to mind other than what JD is apparently desperate to avoid thinking it might be.
If you genuinely are willing to bet this is a 'soap bubble' floating along, and not a military or other sophisticated unidentified aerial craft, go ahead and attempt to replicate the effect using kids bubble mixture or dish soap and present it here, but do us all a favour and at least have the courtesy to pretend you value people making their own minds up and not be instructed what to or what not to think by attempting outdated Psy techniques that are as transparent as the object in the video appears to be.
Cheers OP, i'll be having a closer look at the video...the object appears to hold it's shape steadily, we have the stated range of the poster's UV laser, the posters own estimated height of the object, if we can pin down the time of night, the location, and identify the stars in the background, they all may help in determining size and speed of the object.
And JD..yeah, yeah, yeah...in advance.
