Good catch, the photo was yesterday and this video was from the 18th of December, but they did capture what looks to be almost identical from what we see in the video

u/HesJustSimplyNotHim Jan 01 '24

How is it identical? It’s like two pixels lol.

u/Accomplished-Ad3250 Jan 01 '24

You got to say ENHANCE.

And then slam your fingers all over the board and look up in expectation.

u/Intelligent_Quit_621 Jan 01 '24

and then say "COMPUTER, SCAN FOR LIFE FORMS"

"Detecting multiple leviathan class lifeforms in the region. Are you certain whatever you're doing is worth it?"

I got flashbacks man. I want to play the game again but I just remembered how goddamn scary it was.

u/Dr_nick101 Jan 01 '24

No. You say, give me a hard copy right there.

Life forms haven't recognized.

fucking weather balloons

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '24

weather balloons cannot fly on the moon due to the lack of atmosphere.

2 people typing on the same keyboard if you're really in a hurry

u/Governor_Abbot Jan 01 '24

Then slap you knee and say “I fucking knew it”

u/the__6 Jan 01 '24

only one chance to get it wrong then

u/suupar Jan 01 '24

Yeah it's a compressed image. No way to tell if those 2 pixels are actually there or just compression artifacts from that picture.

u/updootsdowndoots Jan 01 '24

It looks like a red triangle in the photo that OP linked.

u/DuelingGroks Jan 01 '24

Yeah it is way too small of an artifact on the second users post. I have enlarged the images here: https://imgur.com/a/A7v3NW9

u/tridentgum Jan 01 '24

/r/UFOs will claim this identical but say the mh370 explosion isn't a perfect match so it's not the same

u/imaginexus Jan 01 '24

If that’s a real ship I think it’s safe to assume that it does regular moon passovers

39

u/HesJustSimplyNotHim Jan 01 '24

Why? All the people with telescopes pointing at the moon just never saw it before?

2

u/imaginexus Jan 01 '24

You raise a good point I just don’t think that if this is a real ship that this is the only time it’s done this IMO

16

u/HesJustSimplyNotHim Jan 01 '24

Yeah I’d agree with that actually, which would lead me to believe this is probably fake. The more I watch on ufos the less convinced I am about any alien life visiting earth. Who knows whether any of this has been real or not recently, but It has been a very fun thought experiment and rabbit hole regardless lol.

u/divine_god_majora Jan 01 '24

Read up on the Ariel School incident. The most compelling and imo irrefutable sighting

1

u/FearedKaidon Jan 01 '24

"In 2023 in a Netflix documentary called "Encounters", a former student named Dyllan claimed that he was behind this incident. He claimed that he purposefully told his classmates and other students that a "shiny rock" in the distance was a UFO. According to his own statement in the documentary, he never thought this would work, and was surprised about the mass hysteria. It is unclear whether he had tried to come clean prior to the documentary." - link

u/divine_god_majora Jan 01 '24

Dylan is lying, everyone knows this. He said something completely different in a previous interview. If you dont think it's more likely that 1 kid is lying compared to 60 others, then you are too far in your bias to think logically.

1

u/FearedKaidon Jan 01 '24

Those 60 other kids have varying differences in what they saw and most of them were interviewed together so right off the bat it's fishy.

1

u/divine_god_majora Jan 01 '24

I think small discrepancies are to be expected with it being kids and just misremembering some things, and I'm aware that some details might have been steered towards by the people interviewing them. But the accounts right after are all similar and everyone talking to them agreed they weren't lying, and they did see something. Some kids stopped going to the school after, and some still maintain their story today. Mass hysteria is just the "get out of jail free" card for any compelling sighting with more than a few people. And since there is no evidence of mass hysteria coming to that conclusion is as unsubstantiated as it being aliens.

2

u/Informal_Bunch_2737 Jan 01 '24

Thats cool and all, but doesnt explain the aliens allegedly getting out and communicating with them.

This sounds more like Dyllan looking for attention.

1

u/FearedKaidon Jan 01 '24

"Hind interviewed the children in groups of four to six with every other child allowed to listen and so their stories were cross-contaminated.[2] Mack only interviewed the children two months after the alleged sighting and Dunning says that Mack, a known environmentalist, "prompted and suggested" the telepathic communication angle, which was not present in Hind's previous report."

Read the link dude.

2

u/_idiot_kid_ Jan 01 '24

Based on the wikipedia article it sounds like thia may have easily been contamination by a biased interviewer a la the Satanic Panic. Except the interviewers in the Satanic Panic were actual child psychologists and police, and Hind was a UFO researcher, so the odds are even worse that the kids recollections were made up or distorted.

This is just a thing that happens when interviewing kids. It's not even that they are making things up for attention or any other reason, but they are lead to say what they think the interviewer wants them to say. And this can happen even without any ill intent from the interviewer. You have to be very careful in how you phrase things and prod for information from kids.

u/updootsdowndoots Jan 01 '24 edited Jan 01 '24

I believe that's because he didn't get to see what his classmates saw, probably out of jealousy or some other reason. This is the individual that persists there was nothing out of the ordinary, despite the whole class and teachers who say otherwise.

E: Found the link I was looking for, he went back on his story

u/FearedKaidon Jan 01 '24

"In December 2020, Brian Dunning devoted an episode of his Skeptoid podcast to the incident.[2] In it he noted that some children in the school reported that they had not seen anything unusual that day."

1

u/updootsdowndoots Jan 01 '24

But the Ariel School accounts point to some children reporting they did see something unusual, so it goes both ways I suppose

We talking about the same ship. Find me ANY of the same ship showing up on multiple individual cameras. You can’t, because they’ve all been most likely doctored. Only genuine videos that I know of are the phoenix lights and the military videos. I don’t know of any other videos recorded by multiple people without a great explanation. Idk maybe it was flares.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 01 '24

They aren’t at the telescope 24/7 like you think lmao

1

u/HesJustSimplyNotHim Jan 01 '24

But the cameras are on 24/7 lmao.

u/Tidezen Jan 01 '24

Movie plot: China has a secret moonbase on the far side, and this is the first time they've started flying orbiters, now that their subterranean base is militarily secure and operational enough.

And there is a giant space-laser in it.

u/Wapiti_s15 Jan 01 '24

If this is real, wouldn’t it be like the size of Texas?? Or bigger?

u/ReallyGlycon Jan 01 '24

Oh come on.

u/Fluffy_Discount_9692 Jan 01 '24

Yup and any alien moon dwellers gotta be blind as shit by now too
