A Modest Theory About Those Drones Over New Jersey

The media has taken up the cause and the story has gone mainstream, with baffled officials furnishing no unified explanation - and President elect Trump weighing in.

“While drones that weigh more than 250 grams are required to broadcast identifying information, certain ones, like those operated by the United States government, are not required to do so.“

Have the drone sighting died down? Not seeing a lot of new news reports.

Seems so, although I am wondering if it’s the news cycle moving on or what. If you go on social media, there still appear to be frequent drone sightings, but not as much as the height of it. Maybe if they were performing testing they’ve completed it, or whatever the goal was. IMO

The holidays seem to have conveniently quieted things down.

I still see stuff on X. It’s turned to these “orbs”.
Usually when alien stuff happens it’s a hyper compelling video, one video, that people analyze and try to determine if it’s real. And today anything can be faked even the sound of your neighbors voice can be faked. So I believe none of the videos..
BUT these orbs on Twitter are from different cities different people and all different qualities, different number of orbs- to me that’s the most compelling part - multiple videos showing the same objects.
To debunk it?
Sure people could tie some kind of yellowish lamp thing to their hobby drones and all coordinate in some forum somewhere and put this together. But there’s other stuff too..

The fog we’re all experiencing right now is coming from one point in the gulf you can see from weather.cod.edu

And three planes crashed in a day.

None of this means anything and nothing has been linked together of course.. But still compelling.
I also really really want it to be aliens lol.

FAA Acknowledges Gulfstream G550 Struck an Object at 27,000 Feet | AIN

According to Graves, one of the G550’s engines failed after the encounter with “an unidentified metallic object…at approximately 27,000 feet.”

www.ainonline.com

”The FAA confirmed to AIN that a Gulfstream G550 experienced a midair collision with a mysterious object at FL270 in Miami airspace…this altitude is highly regulated Class A airspace that requires flight plans and transponders, but in this instance, there were no flight plans for the object and the object was not squawking a transponder code.”

Space junk (NASA is 3h drive away, after all, could have been launch debris) or something else?

Definitely not as much! The most recent report I found was that 1/4 article that mentions sightings Friday 1/3.

So are people still seeing drones?

I just found this: MSN

"Other video shared across social networks shows luminous entities cutting through the flames at incredible speeds. And another sequence reveals what looks like a large glowing "mothership" surrounded by smoke."

Weird/niche response, but I wonder if it’s ball lightning?

I was obsessed with Laura Ingalls Wilder as a child. I remember in one of the books they spoke of fires, and during the firestorm, a lightning ball came down their stove pipe and appeared to float around the room!

I tend to be on the side of atmospheric phenomena based on that video, but hey… who knows?

MOO

FYI, there are still plenty of drone sightings. Its just not in the news anymore, and many social media sites have banned discussions. There was one hovering over my municipal police station last week, that was way too large for a personal hooby drone.

I'm not on social media. Is it unusual for discussion of something to be banned?

Widespread Fog Sparks Wild Theories About Secret Tests And Alien Activity

The latest weather-related conspiracy theory to take hold in the United States claims that fog blanketing large parts of the country is making people sick.

www.forbes.com

Snipped...
...Many are linking the fog with recent sightings of UFOs, drones or orbs — most of which are readily explainable as aircraft or other perfectly ordinary events — and some are even suggesting that it consists of alien spores.
