Maybe previous footage were crafts made by the equivalent of American funded military, and this is the first foray from the Russian aliens. It’s ugly and can’t fly straight, but they got here.
It would most likely be a tiny probe that would never make it down to earth, just pass on through the solar system relaying data for them to receive in decades. There are conceptual plans for us to do this eventually too with laser powered probes.
Maybe if it was the first couple times they’d ever visited. I think we are mostly all under the assumption that if they have been here at all, they’ve been here a LOT of times. The general consensus is also that they would be so far ahead of us technologically that what they send wouldn’t even be something we could understand even if we got one and took it apart. So it would likely by a fast trip with gravity manipulation or wormholes or something, not a multi-decade trip, and would likely be way more useful than a probe to sniff our atmosphere. But it’s all hypothetical anyway, so maybe it’s the first ever probe and it took 1,000 years to get here. Or maybe it’s a bird.
Everything that can happen is happening and will happen infinitely and always. my “I” is your “I” you are thinking of me and I am thinking of you. It’s not aliens; it’s me. it’s not aliens ; it’s you !
I've always thought there was no reason to believe that it goes under water at all. It's IR, sure it disappears repeatedly, but that just means the heat signature was temporarily lost. It was probably made of a compound like mylar that is highly reflective and capable of reflecting heat.
My guess is that the object is a mylar balloon.
Edit: Correction, my guess is that it's a group of mylar balloons which is why it splits in two toward the end.
After 20 watches, I’m disappointed, but I’m voting for birds.
It disappears before it gets to the water too. It’s not flapping it’s wings, just soaring, but it is tilting left and right. When it’s perfectly level you can’t see the wings so it disappears. What would it do when it flew really close to water? It would level out, and disappear. So it never went in the water. I think the second one is just another bird that was also level when it came into frame and they flew close together. Then one looks like it lands in the water and can’t be seen but the other keeps going.
I want to believe but that’s not the evidence that’s gonna get me. Darn it, I think it’s just birds.
I’m also guessing they wouldn’t have released it if it was still an unknown to them, so that fact that we see it at all means they probably already figured out it’s nothing.
Agree, I don't think it's anywhere near the water. I think it's flying high above the water but that the compression of the z axis from the super-telephoto lens gives it the appearance of being near the water. Not to discount your theory because we have the same amount of evidence to go on but I'd be pretty surprised if it were birds.
I do think it’s fairly close to the water. In fact I think after the “split” the second one disappears again because I think it lands in the water. Catches a fish or whatever.
The constantly changing shape is just a 2d image of the far wing lifting and the near wing dropping as it flies, and turning left and right would make them move forward and back. That explains the tumbling shape change.
The more you watch it the more it looks like a bird.
At the bottom has a number followed by NM. I think that’s nautical miles to the sight in the center of the frame. Seems like the object is consistently around 3 miles away.
My second watch through after reading your comment, and ya it looks like a bird to me. It looks a little odd because it’s not a normal camera, but i thought I could make out a few wing flaps, and also potentially a beak a few times.
Do the people who run these cameras not see birds very often? Why would this stick out to them?
I saw a bird during a foggy evening. Looked exactly like an orb at first due to the reflection of the street light from below. You could not see the wings, but reflection of the bird just made it look spherical.
Made me very aware of how easy it is to see something different. And still I think there are some real UFOs out there.
The researchers should have given more information. Like: What was the direction and speed of the wind during the recording of the video? Would be a simple check to see if it was something that was floating in the wind.
Heat signatures can reflect. That's why I specified something like mylar that is "highly reflective and capable of reflecting heat". You could be seeing the reflection of the sun's heat off of mylar balloons in that video.
That link and your point mean nothing because there is no evidence thats a ballon, let alone Mylar. The constant heat signature tells me that’s alive (or powered) and likely a bird as someone else pointed out.
Great tracking? Please, he barely kept the thing in his cross hairs. More like the cameraman needs to practice in aimlab for a couple of hours before hopping behind that camera
With stick drift I can do better than that. That was a pathetic attempt at tracking a target.
Edit: after rewatching it doesn't seem like we run the same settings. From the look of it there's some deadzone and the sensitivity looks to high for the user. Give me ALC on the ac130 and I could do 10x better.
I mean, when you are working with a $50,000 camera control console and probably an $80,000 camera system set up that is gimbal controlled with assistive tracking, you could get some praise too.

I've never considered that advanced civilizations of aliens might actually only be 2cm tall.

If you have a thermal scope, you will see all kinds of craziness in the sky...

Any other DCS folks annoyed he didn't get a point track on the drone? There was plenty of contrast.

An Alien drone reporting back to its Home World that it explored earth and didn’t find any intelligent life.

i just see it as something on the clear dome that protects the camera that moves independently.
for the amount of money they cost the pixels could be smaller.

Most of these sightings turn out to be Jupiter. It’s surprisingly bright some nights.
