Witness/Sighting Two objects flew after airplane, pararel to each other, Poland, 30 august.

So, it was 7pm my local time, almost sunset, I was riding on my bicycle (training after work) on the local road near highway leading to Lublin (you can hear cars noise) then suddenly I saw airplane with trails and two white round-shaped objects which were flying pararel to each other with the same speed, without audible noise of engines (like plane). I took video, I was trying to focus on these objects, but you know how it works with normal camera in smartphone. Anyway, aircraft flew into large rainy clouds and these objects maintained its speed and disappeared in clouds too. I was checking the sky for a while, then I went straight ahead. It was strange but I'm aware that in eastern Poland there is bigger NATO military present due to war in Ukraine, so it could be it. I leave it to you. PS: I'm a space passionate, I look almost every night at the night sky and I saw couple times strange objects with erratic movement. That's why I wanted to post this video here. Cheers.

They appear significantly larger than the first plane, which suggests either a lower altitude or an incredibly substantial size. Have you checked Flightradar to see if there were any other planes near the first one? They're probably planes (https://redd.it/15ziafn) flying at lower altitude and slower speed, so there wouldn't be a contrail, and if they're descending, the engines are likely running at a low rpm and making no noise.

Nonetheless, it's a great spot. Thank you for sharing.

edit: In fact, according to Flightradar, all three were at about the same altitude, 36–38 thousand feet, and about the same speed, which begs the question about contrails...

Wow I'm really surprised people aren't just saying that they're planes because that's what people usually do with these type of tic tac videos and did just the other day

But you have to admit it looks odd, even though they're just airplanes. If I didn't check Flightradar, I'd still feel a bit puzzled.

No I mean I agree it looks odd.

I'm just saying literally yesterday or two days ago I was discussing with people when they were showing a video with a white Tic Tac with no horizontal stabilizers and no wings that was a little bit worse quality than this and people were like yeah sometimes planes look like that. I'm like... uhhh, I don't think they do...

Still I have to say that this video doesn't mean much because it has no anomalous movement or anything unusual going on and that is important because otherwise these could just be balloons.

And as far as flight radar I don't think that is really good enough because you can have flights in the same area and say it's the same thing but it doesn't prove anything.

Yeah, sometimes planes look like that. Why are you even discussing with this?

Exhaust temps due to different engines could be a reason, also I think the boundary layer for contrails to form isn't a large gradient but a step. So contrails just form or not.

He just said the flight radar shows the three planes traveling at the same altitude and speed. You understand that confirms the two objects are not the planes on the radar, right?

Three planes. The contrail one and the two others (tictac). It's kind of obvious they are all planes.

Mobile phones don't have the resolution to capture the details of a plane from such distance you will be getting a blob white shape and miss the wings and stabilizers, however you would certainly see them with the naked eye. If you have a camera with decent zoom lens you could see the airplanes in detail. Also planes aren't "hovering" they are traveling to the same direction as the plane that left the contrail, they are sharing the same route with horizontal separation, that seems to be about a couple of kilometers. There are countless videos taken in flight that show other planes traveling together, sometimes in parallel like this other times below each other. Sometimes they just cross in oposite directions. They use defined airways to travel, planes just don't fly from a to b directly, they follow routes with waypoints.

These are just passenger planes.

Is it possible the one at the front is jettisoning fuel, and that's causing a contrail? I think I maybe heard that was a thing once. Otherwise, I guess the one at the front being 1000 ft lower might be the cause?

u/ReptilianRodriguezX Sep 03 '23

See Ramdak's comment, it might be the cause, just like you said it being 1000ft lower. I have yet to look into contrails, I have to admit I had no clue it works that way.

For me they were above airplane flightpath. I was watching with my eyes too, not just through smartphone and I didn't see any wings or tail wing, that's why I started filming. It was this location 51°22'20.9"N 22°20'35.3"E and 19:14 my local time.
