B.C. residents baffled as shape floats through night sky
cbc.caSo... a lonely cloud just after sunset? This is always the coolest thing to see when the sun under the horizon illuminates things at high altitude. It happens a lot with rocket launches like this:
That shape seems to be implied to be a ‘circle’ or ‘sphere’, although I can imagine a Triangle or Square object being equally scary.
“residents, including this CBC reporter, reported seeing a large, white shape slowly move across the horizon before disappearing from view.”
Actually, now it just sounds like they’re talking about a cloud…
Yeah, but it's a cool looking cloud. I think the cloud in the video was pretty neat.
Remember those new jersey drones that were all commercial planes?
I think there actually were drones (even if most reports were aircraft), but that they weren't nefarious (my theory is a commercial LIDAR mapping project) based on the fact that the sitings dropped precipitously when flight restrictions were declared.
I was following it pretty closely for anthropological reasons. There wasn't a single clear photo of a drone, just planes and helicopters, over the most densely populated area in the country. It was the same as UFOs. Not one clear photo. The subreddit kinda went over the deep end and started talking about holograms, sentient orbs, spirituality, because what else can you talk about without any falsifiable evidence? Fascinating example of modern mass hysteria.
Sunrise/sunset. Cloud is still in sunlight. Not a ufo. Just an interesting cloud getting a moment in the spotlight.
great, now even our skies have floating garbage patches
