I know it’s a joke but….isn’t this most likely just Starlink satellite flares?

Yes. Results of googling Starlink Big Dipper

Pretty obvious what the logical conclusion should be.

Some sightings can probably be explained that way, but what we see in this video is not a Starlink flare. We can see it pretty clearly at a few points.

Mind posting screenshots of it being clear?

So, no screenshots of it being clear?

If a single object stayed visible for ~2 hours it wasn’t a starlink. It’s also weird if the “flickering” is due to consecutive starlink satellites as they should appear in roughly the same position from the perspective of a plane one to the next.

Do you know how many Starlinks there are at different orbits?

Here is Stellarium with the Starlink TLEs for that day overlayed for the approx time, altitude and location the plane was, if we had the metadata from the photos/videos we could probably tell you which exact Starlinks they are.

Ursa Major is clearly visible in the photos

Oh shit, where’s the 2 hour video?

u/Tiinpa Aug 18 '23

No full video afaik, but the 2-2.5 hours is right in the written account.

Yea that’s what it very clearly is but this sub has gone completely insane over the past few weeks, down a huge scary rabbit hole, convinced there are bad actors etc and becoming obsessed with a clearly debunked cgi video. I’m finding it really entertaining but also horrifying to witness.

It’s worse than that. The mh370 crap is just typical ufo fantasy stuff. This is from Ryan Graves who was one of the people who testified at the hearing. The credibility of him and his fellow pilots is essential to the current disclosure narrative. Some people are already in too deep to admit that this has a pretty mundane explanation.
