In the end it all comes down to what you want to believe. Ive seen my fair share of unexplained shit; strangely and even more unexplainable ive seen it almost daily during a period of my life when i was a true believer... when i became skeptical the sightings ended...

We all wanna be special, either by having seen something unexplainable or by explaining something which cant be explained.

The truth lies somewhere in the middle, probably right between those ears of us, nestled behind our eyes.

True or not, its all entertainment and doesnt change your life in the slightest unless you decide to do so.

Uh, yeah, no. You are way, way off base. You seem confined only to your own dogma in this post, in which you tell me that I'm believing what I want despite having been a rational and sober-and formerly highly skeptical- witness to a structural craft of some sort that defies known physics in flight and could not have been any of the other possible candidates, from fireworks to the ISS.

You can think this is a just self-aggrandizing lie on my part for the purpose of entertaining you, but that would be highly self-flattering of you and offensive to my character. But hey, think what you want.

I don't care if you believe anything or not, but if you are unable to empathise with something, you shouldn't judge it. It seems to me that you are the victim of belief here, not me. I'm trying to figure out what I saw, and come to some understanding of it.

I highly doubt ozzoes wrote what he wrote with the intent of dismissing what you saw, or of imposing some form of characterization on you. I think he meant that we're largely influenced by our beliefs, and that some people that see stuff like that dismiss it in disbelief, but others, like yourself and many others, dive deeper and expand on the possibilities using their imagination, hopes, desires and available data to create some sort of understanding of what has been seen.

Let's not turn this thread into finger-pointing and name-calling. Nobody knows shit about it all, and that's the beauty of it. I think it's fair to say you shall not receive a clear answer to the question of what it is you saw exactly. That being said, there's no harm in letting your imagination go wild, fueled by your hope that what you saw was what you hope you saw.

Maybe one day I will meet Them. I remain hopeful.

I'm sorry that this escaped my attention until now. I sincerely apologise if my post came off wrong, I in no way meant to make anybody feel that way. I guess I was just trying to impress my veracity in this as an experience that was beyond belief but nonetheless very much real. The whole thing is a hard to tread path through a wilderness of belief, imagination, reality and credibility.

I felt more comfortable talking about a transformational psychedelic experience shortly after it occurred.

Again, sorry. I'm not known for my social finesse.
 
Messing around with a phone photo app, I made this as a visualization for the thing I saw. Tried to take a picture of the view of the sky at the same time, but I only have a phone to take photographs with, so it's not the clearest representation. I tried to illustrate the difference in magnitude and apparent proximity to the stars that were visible. The view is looking directly up, with the right hand sight due north, and the star above the formation is Cygnus. I was lying on my back, feet to the West, the bottom of the picture. This is the position at which it 'appeared'.

I swear on a stack of TV guide. Last night, I was laying outside looking at the stars. Directly overhead, a V shape formation of lights materialized in about a half second and instantly accelerated and speed off to the north. I s close to the house and wasnt able to to track it visuals, but it was probably over Seattle in a couple minutes.It looked like this thing sort of "punched through" a membrane to come into view. There were 7-9 lights, of a bright star magnitude and the speed at which it flew made me think it must've been above the atmosphere to not produce a Sonic boom. It looked to have mass. Oh my God, who is driving that thing?

It was not a star, not an aircraft, not a satellite, not a hallucination.

I am not kidding and don't care if anyone believes me. I've been collecting a ton of mushrooms lately- and eating them- but was 100% sober yesterday and last night. This has changed me much in the way a powerful breakthrough does. In fact, afterwards I felt a sort of similar afterglow.

This place is stranger than we know. I didn't believe in them before 8:00pm last night. I'm a different person this morning.

Dammmmnnnnn....

I checked your date and found this one:

US Air Force's X-37B Space Plane Lands After Record 780-Day Mystery Mission

What was it doing up there?

Escort planes always observe things like the 'Orbital Test Vehicle' during every possible phase of flight.


Also on another note, there are some amazing other things in nature:

Those suggestions aren't plausible based on the data, but don't take my word on it. I suggest you check out the interviews of the multiple pilots and radar controllers about the event, including the detailed reports and timelines, correlating visual report with electronic data. Including the near collisions that happened on the east coast in 2015. Radar malfunction has been ruled out, although the pilots radar systems actually experienced active jamming, which is a technological phenomenon (and actually an act of war if it came from another nation), which is why they couldn't actively track but only passively track via the pixels on the FLIR system. Yet the electro-optical data verifies that whatever the signal is it is of a physical nature, reflective, IR signature, etc etc, it's indisputable, and supported by multiple eye witness. It's not a projectile, at least, you should read the report (what kind of 'projectile' sits still under and above the water, moves erratically like shaking a pingpong ball in a plastic cup, then accelerates at 30x the speed of sound without a trace.).

They are the ones trained to observe and detect these phenomenon, and if they could offer a plausible explanation that didn't make them look crazy, they certainly would. It's not my opinion, I'm just relaying whats out there. The simple fact is, its all been considered, and nothing fits. They can't say what it is, but they can certainly say what it isn't.

By all means, it could be anything, but whatever you can suggest, it must at least fit the data.

And newly deployed starlink trains are themselves quite a sight to behold.

Saw the one where they shot a first bunch with a huge payload and when they where still shiny (they have made the magnitude due to the reflection of sunlight way lower now) , about 7 minutes of a light-strings passing by in the night sky (and even some going astray).

We may have seen the same one, looked like there were at least 23 of them. Albeit not in a v-formation :D

I do rather wish I'd noted down when this was but it may well have been either May 2019 or 2020. Azimuth was about 40° at my latitude, and it was still dusk. The train came round again about 90 mins later, but it was a relief subsequently to find out that the satellites would be placed into a less obtrusive orbit - even though they present a detrimental effect on astronomy.

While I'd dearly love to observe some inexplicable aerial phenomena, the only thing that has even come close was a light which hovered, stationary, in the base of thick cloud cover for some ten minutes before disappearing. Given the location it was most probably a military helicopter, and in no way did it come close to the beauty and majesty of the most terrific lightning I ever saw.
