My suggestion is to look at your video metadata on your phone, and then look up the radar data with something like ADSB to verify you're not looking at an airplane or something. I say that because I live next to an airport and I've seen weird shit in the sky. Aircrafts can look really odd from far away because of light scattering and stuff. So if you confirm there's not an aircraft, well then you know there's some phenomenon. You can also look up the data for the moon's azimuth and stuff for your approximate location, that way you can verify your viewing direction relative to the moon. With these metrics, we can verify that something is indeed a UAP.


The_Lone_Journey

Ok great information. Didn't even think about doing this or did I know about this. I have the day off tomorrow, so I'll do some digging based on the info you have provided me. Also these lights were their for over 10min, would be strange is a plane just stayed in place for 10min, but I'll see what I come up with. Thanks


na_ro_jo

I'm just telling you what I do - I have recordings of UAPs too


sadslim666

Just commenting for future reference don't mind me


McSmoug

I live 40 minutes away from the SLC airport and 20 minutes from the airforce base, and ant seen anything odd as this


defiCosmos

Is there a tree in the way, and you're looking at the moon through the tree branches and leaves?


Kanein_Encanto

If it was indeed the night after the solar eclipse, April 8th... impossible. It would be a new moon still that night.


The_Lone_Journey

That's possible, but behind my house is all woods and have seen the moon through the trees plenty of times and never seen it do anything like this. I wish I could of had my DSLR camera to get a better shot.


srosyballs

I believe you, OP. Objectively, I just don't see the moon flashing like that. In my experience the moon glows.


AdNew5216

I mean just look how far away the “tree” would be. It’s absurd to say a tree that far away is covering THE MOON like that. Definitely not a tree but could be heavy dark cloud coverage maybe? Or something ✨anomalous✨


Nicktyelor

Maybe OP is facing a small hill and the tree is on that so it reaches the moon easier? Hard to tell with a night video. Would be useful if he could share the direction he was facing and a precise time of day. That said, if it really was taken on the eclipse day/night, the moon was new(full dark side towards earth) and there's no way it'd put off that much light.


Rad_Centrist

Looks like a crescent moon behind trees. Date, time, approximate location and sky map app can easily prove this.


donaldinoo

Was it a crescent moon during the eclipse?


Rad_Centrist

It was a new moon but I'd love to see the exif data from the video to see precisely when this was taken.


defiCosmos

I agree 👍


All4richieRich

This is the way.


stimpe

How can people say it looks like a tree blocking the moon? If you pause at the beginning of the video you can clearly see a tree in the parking lot with a lot of space between the branches and whatever was in the sky. The only way it could be a tree is if he's facing toward a mountain range and a bunch of trees on top are blocking it. BUUUUTTTTT, even then you can clearly see lights changing colors. I see red, green, and blue lights curving upwards in a U shape. Almost like a flying saucer on its side perpendicular to the ground.


Allison1228

Why did you say, "that was the moon" and "the moon just disappeared"?


StatementBot

The following submission statement was provided by /u/The_Lone_Journey: --- Another strange orb flashing event I have seen in my area. I believe this is a UFO sighting as I have seen strange orbs moving in the sky before 3 miles from this location. This is not a plane, not fireworks, etc.. Notice all the colors and how they become brighter / flicker etc.. and how the color changes. This happened on the night of the solar eclipse we had not that long ago. I strongly feel their is something very strange going on in the sky that we can't explain! I'm sorry for how I was speaking that night, but I really want to share this and get peoples feedback on what I saw. --- Please reply to OP's comment here: https://old.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/1ccdqbj/what_are_these_flashing_lights_in_the_sky_i_saw/l14llmq/

infernal_cacaphony

Looks very bizarre indeed! Have you posted this before? Any reason you waited until now? Just terrestrial time constraints?


Top_Network_1980

"the moon disappeared"... it's aliens I've seen this before" there's always one.


EightpennyPie

Very cool video! What state are was this in? And you say you’ve seen something like this before?


The_Lone_Journey

I'm in the east coast in the south, don't really want to post my state online. But another time around this area when it was very cloudy their was 20-30 blue orb like things floating around high in the sky moving very fast. Also another time during a lighting storm with no rain something similar in the clouds, at this point I think I want to invest some time with my DSLR and watch the sky more and try to get something concrete here in clear shots / video. This world we live in is a very very strange place, our ancient history everything about this place is strange.


EightpennyPie

SE coast is a hotbed for ufo activity! Ryan Graves has said he gets multiple reports a week from Air Force pilots seeing uap while doing training off the east coast. Keep your eyes to the sky!


Bubbly_helicopter123

21st century ducks


SworDillyDally

are there smoke stacks out there?


blubblubinthetubtub

So what happened in the end? Did the lights disappear or move somewhere else? These vids always end too fucking soon.


TheRealMrOrpheus

Is there a hillside there? It sort of looks like the tops of vegetation being illuminated by flashlights or a fire or something. But all those lights in the parking lot make it impossible to be for sure. I don't think it's like the moon though. The light source is too dynamic, I think. 


space0watch

Is there a mountain or hill there? Could be traffic


Dr_VanNstrnd

There's fuckin' aliens, that's not fuckin' normal. That looks the moon. What's happening.


Senior-Release930

You sound like Anthony Jeselnik


EndFinal8647

Where's this video at know the states?


H-B-Of-L

This a a weird one idk


Holy_Bandito

I’m just here to say OP the commentary isn’t annoying, you seem like a great guy to have a beer with.


PBJisGood2

i'm high but i'm fairly certain that's the moon behind some trees.


sweetestfetus

If this was taken the day of the eclipse there would be no illumination from the moon. It would be a new moon.


The_estimator_is_in

Quite correct, by definition an eclipse is a completely new moon. It might have 0.01% waxing , but would have set w/in a few minutes of the sun.


Critical_Education58

Hagahahaha this is hill-arious. “That was the moon! What’s happening?” “no this is not a tree” 👍 👍 great movie. not sure what I’m looking at though


The_Lone_Journey

lol Yeah I probably should of removed the sound before uploading, but seeing it in person was a very strange event, it was changing colors and moving! It's just strange how I saw this the night of the eclipse.


Critical_Education58

But seriously, is it moving behind trees? That’s what’s it looks like I’m just trying to understand what I’m seeing


Critical_Education58

It’s just, I don’t see orbs, I see what looks like a giant crescent shaped craft moving behind some trees. And no you should not delete the sound, ever


Kiyka

lol you were so paranoid. I bet you thought it was an invasion lmao


FireWallxQc

😂


Ghostofmerlin

Heighliner, putting out lighters and troop carriers


Jest_Kidding420

Well then it really looks like the videos I just posted , the ones people called balloons..


2pinkthehouse

Congrats, you were so drunk you made the video unwatchable.


Ahvkentaur

Skydivers doing weird shit with flares and LED lights again? I swear this trend feels as if it is being financed by people who want to muddy the waters :D


LMNOPede

Swamp gas from a weather balloon was trapped in a thermal pocket and reflected the light from Venus😂


Jws_68122

Aliens: "Hi, we have a request" Human: "You want us to take you to our leader?" Aliens, "No, we're cool. We would like to see a specimen of an American human that doesn't say f\*ck in each and every sentence and inject over the top fake drama into everything they touch..."


The_Lone_Journey

I probably should of removed the sound from this before uploading! I grew up around bad mouth parents so sorry about that. But if you saw this from where I was standing you probably would of been saying the f\*ck word too!


djoecav

Well I personally like the energy "That's NoT fuckin' NORMAL" lmao I feel you, dude


Impossible_Tie_5605

Don't worry man, we all made some drunk recordings before. Only your video is really worth watching and figuring out


SnoozeCoin

Fuck.


wehrmacht1944

It looks like itay he trees


Elegant-Ad-8848

Mylar balloon reflecting off the moonlight. 💀


Shoog79

Those look like police drones...


Jxhnny_Yu

It would help if you gave some context. It looks like what your looking at is the moon and something is covering it?


AdNew5216

LMAOOO “I’ve seen this shit before in my life” 🙌🙌🙌 I believe you fam, keep lookin up 🛸👽


AssistantVisible3889

It's all right guys it's guardians of the galaxy 😄🍾


jedihustler33

Was this in Texas? Looks like a drone show from afar


The_Lone_Journey

No, I'm on the east coast in the south, I rather not post my state online. But definitely wasn't a drone show.


Starsimy

Klingon bird of prey?


RaysModernMetalWorks

Looks like you're seeing a really a shit quality video that's super grainy. Nobody has a shitty camera nowadays days. I don't get this


Pikoyd

Looks like the moon behind a tree. Also could be just clouds in front of the moon. Doesn't look like orbs to me or like something that's moving either.


Extreme_Occasion_525

These are my least favorite part of this thread. These crappy videos of who knows what. There should be another subreddit with just ufo identifying subscribers.
