Experiencer here- I don’t have this evidence either. Six years ago, my father who was a retired nuclear engineer passed away. He lived in Bellingham,WA. I had flown out from east coast for the funeral. While staying at my dad’s house, I woke up to a very bright white light completely engulfing the bedroom I was in. Initially I thought it must be emergency vehicles, but then there was no noise- no sound at all. It was the light that woke me. I thought I would call 911 but my phone screen was scrolling through my contacts and through data, and I was not able to use it at all. Mt phone behaved like the phones did initially in for season of SWR. I won’t lie- I was frightened and threw my phone face down until it stopped which was about a half hour. This occurred about 1:00 a.m. BUT then a neighbor popped over our family home the next day. She started talking about a strobe light effect coming from her portable phone that was circulating throughout her house. I asked her when this happened the previous night. She says it was about one a.m. I think I had an experience but that’s all I have to report. There are things my mind is associating with this event. Though maybe it was nothing. Point is- I wouldn’t have been able to use my phone.
When I was 7, I woke up to a similar effect but I actually saw the craft. I woke up to my room being fully illuminated from my window, middle of the night in the middle of nowhere. I thought it was a car turning around in our driveway with their high beams on for a sec.
I tried to look out my window and saw it was coming from the sky, so I snuck out front expecting to see a helicopter. It was a yellowish glowing disc. It was about the width of 3 or 4 SUVs end to end. No sound. I couldn't make out details, literally looked like plasma. About 200 feet up.
It hovered, slowly and steadily across my property and behind the treeline behind the neighbors house. It was bright enough that the ground looked daytime under it, the light it cast spread a good acre or so. I eventually lost sight of it. The entire time I looked at it, I didn't even think 'aliens'. I remember thinking "I'm not supposed to be out here and I'm not supposed to see this". And I went back to bed terrified.
>Six years ago, my father who was a retired nuclear engineer passed away.
can you talk about his career? entertaining your experience, I instinctively feel like the "light" was probably there searching for something related to your father maybe?
We know that there's some sort of a link between this phenomenon as recorded in the government and the Department of Energy, and things related to nuclear power and weapons.
Keeping in mind that you and the neighbours phones went haywire, maybe the entity was trying to search for something? a digital record? something else? Do you have access to that house still?
But if we were to think like this, it raises more questions than it answers. Because IF my guess is true, then that means the light wasn't controlled by "aliens," but by someone.who'd have access to your dad's credentials and stuff like address.
Try to connect strange dots about his life and see if something makes sense!
My father was a nuclear engineer in the energy production aspect. He did work at the Barnwell reprocessing plant before it was shut down, at Los Alamos NM, etc. He never disclosed anything top secret but certainly did work with DOD under contracts. He also worked to decommission the mustard gas bombs and the nuclear plant at Johnson Island.
And you are pointing out something to me that DEFINITELY crossed my mind. Tell me more about your thoughts. I used to make jokes about being protected by my cone of safety before sharing something, then on SWR they are actually in a cone, lol. So anyway sticking my neck out a little- I don’t think he had anything to share beyond his intense interest in the subject of NHI or he would have. I was monitored periodically (wiring tapping, being followed etc) during his security clearances. I always was vocal about the dangerous matches we held in our hands and nowhere to safely store nuclear waste. But do share your thoughts.
> I don’t think he had anything to share beyond his intense interest in the subject of NHI or he would have.
He did?
That's interesting. A man who never mentioned anything to his family probably didn't leave any sensitive documents or material lying around. BUT if the light was actually "searching" for something, I wonder what it could've been.
Or maybe there's an entirely different explanation for the light, who knows haha
When I saw the phones doing this (can’t remember whose phone) on one of the first few episodes of SWR I recognized it immediately and I thought how silly of me to let fear take over such that I wouldn’t have this chance to meet NHI. But then what if it wasn’t a positive experience? Well there are a million different ways I could have reacted and the way I acted was out of fear. I may regret that for rest of my life.
Ppl on this sub are so entitled idk if it's funny or sad. You should ask Jerry Corbell who actually just saw a ufo for the first time recently why he didn't record his sighting of 10 mins. He claims he didn't on purpose
So often people who see the phenomenon literally don't even consider taking photos, even with a camera in their pocket. Something about the phenomenon often seems to make people just not consider photographing it
I agree completely. I've had a close encounter and there are multiple reasons why I didn't take out my phone. I was scared for 1. Then it was so random and abrupt that I didn't even think of my phone. My sighting only lasted like 30 secs though and I was really making sure I didn't get abducted, as crazy as that sounds
But I was just addressing the ppl complaining about op not getting a vid while phone was messing up
I have had multiple been scared twice the other times not. For me the closer the encounter the higher the threshold for fear goes up. If you can have an experience at a distance it's ok. When it comes right up on you the fear level dramatically increases and I believe the reason why is internally you know when its on top of you that it is directly interested in you specifically. And that being observed by something that is probably as intelligent or more than you and is not homosapien is a lot to process. You have no idea what it's motives are whether it knows empathy if it has ill intent towards you. And that is a scary proposition.
Yeah it can be pretty scary but it didn't hurt me or anything. So looking back I regret getting so scared an actually want it to happen again.
What's cool is that I've only heard of the same UFO I saw twice. A lady described to me a very similar looking UFO chasing her car a few cities over from me and a friend said he saw the same thing at the beach. But then it sucks because I have had a personal encounter with something I'll probably never have the answer to
It's good to reconsider because being terrified by witnessing something impossible scars your brain for life. After my sighting I was forever doubting my own eyes and always worried about mental illness or at least my own sense of judgement. It's not the thrill ride some make it out to be.
I was asked the same thing, considering I was a journalist at the time and there was a camera in the back seat I could have used. But when you're terrified you don't think "camera", just "am I gonna die now?"
I don’t think you are crazy at all about abduction concern. I have found that Walton,Strieber and others tell very compelling experiences . So I actually had same thoughts- I mean I can’t even take a vacay because I have responsibilities ya know? I’m curious how are the group researching high strangeness at SWR are going to establish communications with they discover NHI and overcome some initial panic at seeing a nonhuman entity. What could we do better than rely on our basic instincts to something totally out of our ordinary existence?
I mean... *If* NHI can detect your consciousness, and *if* NHI can see your intentions without you actively communicating them, and *if* NHI want to remain hidden, then of course they would interfere with digital recording devices.
I think if Corbell had tried to get a recording, we still wouldn't have a recording. Better that he immerse himself in the moment and collect as much qualitative data as he could.
OSHASHA2 , Thank you for being intelligent enough to get some aspects to this phenomenon. You are correct on most of that. They have a purpose for doing what they do for the individual or group....it's not meant for everyone.
They are aware and they are way above our abilities . They can interfere with technology with ease, and if you do get some recording....it's because they allowed you to.
Some people are just so myopic and self serving on what they want....they don't realize that same behaviour is keeping them from getting to see these UAPs for themselves . Their appearances is of their design, it's purposeful, ....and it blows my mind that some of the "demandy" types don't realize that maybe "demanding" is an approach that these entities aren't fond of.
If you have a new neighbor others have met but they haven't met you...do you walk into their house uninvited? Do you demand your other neighbors take photos of them? Or do you ask the other neighbors who met them some questions? And use that to maybe find a similar pattern that they share that made the new neighbors want to meet them.
I have so much empathy for people and I remember before ....wanting to see for myself that they were real. But now after seeing UAPs and other high strangeness....I just understand why they keep distance from so many people. It's very complex and the phenomenon touches on a lot of different content....but for sure, the crowd that behaves like whiny children and scream at others for their encounters, demand pictures...are their own worst enemies.
Maybe being illusive and seeing how you respond is their way of gauging on whether they want you attached to the phenomenon in any way. Food for thought for some, disregarded by those who sabotage their own chances, and a path for those in earnest who want to see.
I think our fear that our thoughts can be so easily read stems somewhat from our belief that human thinking is superior to every other kind of thinking by other animals. We may find that the reason we can't communicate with other creatures is that we just don't hear them, even though they are sending us information all the time, by thought. Maybe animals talk to each other this way and we haven't caught on, because humans developed the capacity to talk verbally, so we didn't need to develop other ways.
If you live in nature long enough, you can learn its language. The birds will tell you about the weather, and when there are predators or intruders around. The plants will tell you about the hydrology of the place and small animals about the availability of high-quality food. The insects can tell you about the climate –they are becoming a quiet bunch. And if there were still megafauna around, they might tell us to stay in our lane.
I guess I shouldn’t have said scramble. It would be as if you are zooming into the sun. It just turned bright white. I know my neighbors recorded it I’ll get a video after work, relax
A lot of UFO sightings report the same thing. Ppl wonder why there aren't many clear video and pics but fail to take this fact into account. Who is gonna record a white blob on their screen & upload it? That would just give the naysayers more ammo to try and discount this subject. Btw, thanks for sharing your experience. 🫡
The Navy pilot that tells his story on the Nimitz said the same thing. The only reason they were able to get that video on the tracking device was because it was not infrared. It was some kind of analog device. But they said all their cameras got jammed and had the similar reaction to what you're talking about
Thanks for saying that. I’m not sure if folks are understanding , bright white light was coming in through a window in back bedroom of the house. It was when I thought to call to find out if emergency services was called that my phone went whacky. Obviously it’s had a profound impact on me, because I happened to experience the phenomenon and immediately after my father’s passing. I sure would have picked something else to get focused on. It happened and I deeply want to know more about why

Op story could be bs or it could be the truth but tbh I think phone scrambling or just tech scrambling in general is a serious thing when it comes to UAP experiences
Lasy night, in Warsaw, Poland I saw similar thing, but here was a 3rd object, a bit dimer than first two (no clouds, clear sky, a bit poluted with light). I was on my balcony and I thought 'oh cool, haven't seen it so early before'. And then it struck me - it is too early for this star group, it's on wrong side of the sky and it's far too early. I went inside to grab my phone to take pics and vid, but it was already gone. All of the three objects.. 11:42 PM local time.
Bonnybridge Scotland is probably THE most notable for sightings. Then the UK is known for its crop circles. You should have a sub if you’re unable to find one.
For sure. I lived in San Luis Obispo for about 3 years (many moons ago) and me and several college friends had strange sightings there. I saw a bunch of crescent shaped lights that zoomed and bounced all around me. Still bugs me to this day. No idea what it was. But I knew from that point forward that I had no idea what “reality” meant. Consider yourself lucky.
Thats what gave me goosebumps. When I saw the tiny blue star mimicking it was when it became surreal. I am well versed in gazing at stars and satellites and even airplanes that pass over occasionally. This was none of those.
I believe you.
I've seen a zigzagging light, it was in Cape Town and just one hour after a merchant vessel off Argentina saw 3 orbs of light come out of the ocean and zigzagged off. The rate of speed I saw the thing going, and then STOPPING above me and lighting me up scared the shit out of me, I was in disbelief!
One reason for the "zigzag" maneuver I've heard is that it is the best way to avoid being shot/zapped/target locked etc.
I always wondered why these things are so prone to zig zagging in this abrupt manner, considering it seems like such a colossal waste of energy. But this does sound like a plausible theory for that
Central coaster here, I saw a huge crescent shaped ufo while my wife and I were in our backyard a few years ago. Then it just shot off as if when in Star Wars and they use hyperdrive. Like this delayed charge up for a split moment then poof. Disappeared over the roof.
Large crescent on one side and two smaller crescents on the backside. Was green in color. Weird
If it were "in space" then it should have been visible to millions of people in California...yet nobody else seems to have reported anything strange...
I know how scrambling works. It didn’t scramble my phone, my phone was completely operational. I could select my camera and point it at the sky in that direction, everything is normal. As soon as I start zooming my screen would turn white and getting bright as if I’m zooming in on the sun. When I zoomed back out my phone was fine and was normal again. Zoom back in, same thing
So my phone was one of those newest latest greatest at that time(2018) and it was searching contacts or scrolling up and down my list, randomly lighting up buttons, and showed the effects exactly as did Dr.TT or who? In season one of SWR. As I touched buttons to get control I just didn’t have any control to zoom or dial at all .
I actually experienced this for the first time on Sunday night. It can be pretty startling but once you realise all of the stars are doing it it’s clear something is up with your eyes.
When I saw it only the one star was moving, very odd experience though. I feel quite lucky to have seen some cool things in the sky but still waiting for the biggie.
Keep looking up man. Although I’ve discounted what I saw Sunday I’ve seen other things come right over me that cannot be tricks of the mind of eye. This stuff is around.
Yes I saw something similar a few days ago. I always observe the skies when able. Was taking the dogs out for their final pee of the evening, looked over the house and was pleased that the sky was clear and could see dozens of stars (Florida so plenty of light pollution). As I watched for anything remarkable (usually only planes which are abundant) I noticed one star was moving relative to the others. I thought oh cool the space station or other large satellite. In appearance no different than the other bright stars. I was excited because I was certain it was moving, then it changed direction. Then I noticed another moving object, since I was intently staring at that region of the sky using the other stars as reference points. I am seeing two objects making dynamic movements and my pulse is elevated and my phone is inside charging. I speculated that they were engaged in combat possibly with each other or with some other crap. It faded away after 30 seconds and I told my wife and she said that’s nice. 🥲
Yeah that does sound a little similar, this was the brightest “star” in the sky. Reason I keep saying star is because that’s exactly what it looked like, either in our atmosphere or in space. But it was clear as day, as bright as the North Star. The other “star” was blue in color and was smaller and less bright (or maybe a lot further away) but it mimicked the bright star perfectly. I’m talking like a mirror, they would zig zag exactly the same, move the same direction at the same time, it almost was like a reflection. I just don’t get it, the only thing I have seen that has that kind of movement is a drone that can hover, move side to side, up and down, zig zag. But this was way higher than a drone could ever be, I’m thinking it was in space.
Crazy stuff I would imagine. The best way I can describe it is how a drone operates where it can hover, move side to side, up and down, diagonal, etc. But imagine that drone being 2 stars in the sky mimicking each other perfectly
lol I knew I’d snag downvotes for even suggesting it was mundane.
I imagine that they know way way waaay more than we do and there’s a *lot* going on in the skies that involves both earthly and non-earthly vehicles interacting, and that we also see Space Force training & readying exercises.
ETA: did you see the other recent post with video of two star-like lights cross crossing?
>after 30 seconds and I told my wife and she said that’s nice. 🥲
i don't mean to be sexist when I say this but women have such a talent when it comes to bringing people crashing down to reality haha
So just to be clear OP, you first opened your camera app and were zooming in BEFORE you pressed record?
Why didn't you initially open the camera app, press record, and then try to focus on the anomaly?
Do people really try to frame up a shot before they record a video, I'm confused.
You couldn’t see anything on regular screen it just looked like the sky, as soon as I barely zoomed in my sceen went white. I wasn’t even able to go full zoom
Did it look like a software bug then or something? Did your *entire* screen go white? Or was the light sensor simply being blasted by the moon light and thus all white?
Did just the camera viewfinder/display go white/scrambled or was it the full phone screen? You say it scrambled when you zoomed in. Did anyone try filming anything else around it then? I want to believe this. Legitimately. But we really need at least *something* visual and a 30 minute encounter with 7 witnesses and no photos or video is... odd (I do see your comment here about asking other witnesses for video, so I'm hopeful here).
Did you film it regardless of interference?
Would be a very useful video to show how these objects affected your camera, please tell me you recorded it..
I’ve seen something similar very close to sea level, similar movement. 2003, July, 3am. Old Motorola phone, so no photos, wouldn’t have even thought of taking a photo anyways. Five observers including myself, no one said a thing the entire time. Object estimated to be over 150’ wide. Rectangular. Moved in a “plus-sign” pattern and colour pattern was red, blue, green, yellow repeat (about 1 second per colour change) 15 minutes observed. At the end of 15 minutes, it returns to centre position turns clear then shoots straight up into the atmosphere lighting up the clouds briefly as it passed through and disappeared into space. It went from approx. 300’ above sea level to cirrus clouds in a couple/few seconds. Completely silent. It was amazing to watch.
So, no video at least of the ‘scrambling’? You just figured, “hey my camera suspiciously scrambles when I point it at the UAP, let me not even bother recording the phenomenon”?
Every time it turned bright white I would turn off my camera to see if it was something I was doing. When it happened to everyone else I knew it wasn’t just me. I’ll ask my neighbors and gf what they have, I won’t leave you guys hanging
I believe you. Me and my wife. Often sit in our backyard at night and see similar things. They always look like stars, but move all around and stop. Typically when we see the “stars” moving, moments after there is always a scramble of jets in the area. I unfortunately only have an iPhone 7 so the recording is pointless. We’ve had multiple sightings in our back yard, including blue/purple lights that hovered over our roof for a short amount of time. I stopped trying to explain myself to people because you always get the same negative responses. Me and my wife now just take it all in, whenever we see them. To add to this, we live in the Amish country in a tiny village in NY. Very close to Lake Ontario.
I might be able to see if it was some kind of satellite. Would you be able to be more specific on location and time? Apart from the zig zag movements, could you describe it's overall position in relation to the moon? Did it stay in that part of the sky or did it move from there? For example, "it was just above the moon but after the 30 minutes it was further to the left" or something like that?
It happened during sunset (PST) and lasted for at the least the 30 minutes we saw it (it was dark when we finally left). Hold a dollar up to the sky on the right side of the moon. It stayed in that small of a vicinity the entire time.
Ok, here is a recreation of the sky last night. [https://imgur.com/a/dxJpDeI](https://imgur.com/a/dxJpDeI)
I have removed all of the fast moving (low altitude) satellites. The ones that remain are those in sunlight so would be *possible* to produce a visible light. Nothing seems to match you description though so I don't think it was a satellite.
EDIT: I'm not ruling out a satellite. After learning OP's exact location and looking again and researching a couple of satellites that were in the area, I have a hunch, but I would like to see a video for clarification before speculating
Yeah there was absolutely no certain direction. It would be moving left, stop, hover, then move right. But the scariest were the zig zags. And then seeing the small blue star mimicking the brighter star identically was when it really took it to another level. It was almost as if both stars were being controlled by the same operator
Very similar to my experience. Was laying in bed looking at the brightest stars when I notice one that wasn't there before but looks just like the brightest one but then it starts to do some wild erratic zigzag movements and then dips. Have not seen anything like that before or ever since.
I just made it using the software Stellarium. It's an astronomy tool for seeing how the sky looks at any time or place, and it has a plug-in for satellites. The best thing is it's free!
You may like this site, you can zoom really far into deep space objects. I’ve only tried it on PC and I’m not sure how well it works on a phone. Check it out!
https://worldwidetelescope.org/webclient/
SLO county, Paso Robles, CA. Remember though, this wasn’t close to me at all. It looked like it was in space or at least 2-3x as high as a plane would travel.
I saw something like this 2 years ago it was 4am and I was on my morning run and saw a bright star. I kept looking at it and maybe about 2 mins later it zig-zaged away super fast! I also saw the same thing when i was in 3rd grade when I was walking home with my brother.
Likely autokinetic effect :
“The autokinetic effect is an optical illusion. It occurs when a perceiver staring at a stationary pinpoint of light in an otherwise completely dark visual field believes that the light moves from its fixed position. This “self-motion” (auto-kinetic) is caused, in part, by the nearly imperceptible movements of the eye known as saccades. Ordinarily the visual system compensates for these naturally occurring motions of the eye, but when only a single light is visible with no frame of reference, the light appears to wander in unpredictable directions and at variable speeds. This illusion was first noted by astronomers when viewing a single star on a very dark night.”

Nice. First they lure us with advanced tech like "smart phones". Then, we realize they control this tech in depth, to the point where they can display a "censored" logo if you zoom in on their criminal activities.
Saw something similar as well last night that I thought was a a star in so cal. It sat in one place for a few minutes then almost “evaporated”. All that was remaining was what looked like an atmospheric distortion in the shape of an hourglass.
I'd be willing to believe this if it was fairly up close. But OP describes it as looking like a star in the sky, so it must've been pretty far off. If camera's could be disrupted by it from that far, I feel like people would be constantly having problems with their phones.
Does the UAP detect when it's being filmed and scramble devices accordingly or does it scramble all electronic devices within vicinity (again, consider how far away this thing must've been in both scenarios).
My phone worked perfectly fine if I using it. It even worked fine when I pointed at the sky toward it. It wasn’t until I zoomed in that it started doing that
They seem to react to observation, here's a video where the object gets blurry on zoom-in
https://old.reddit.com/r/HighStrangeness/comments/1ddbixk/this_round_black_thing_looked_stranger_than_my/ video, daytime cloudy sky, single dark object, black ⚫️, horizontal trajectory, moving and stationary, my mind starts seeing it as either a tiny portal or, it looked like the sky was like a wallpaper and that tiny black dot was a bug., electronic effects camera, **whenever I'd zoom in, it'd get blurry.** , duration 10-15 minutes, Iran 🇮🇷, [GOODPOST], animal reaction lots of crows surrounding it., /u/soitgoes__again
It was the weirdest thing. I pointed at it with my phone but as soon as I started zooming in, my phone would turn white and have this weird static on the image, same with my girlfriends, then the 6 people tried and all the same (mind you zooming into a black sky, it should be black). We watched it for as long as we could but they just stayed in the same general area in the sky. Also another thing I forgot to add, Camp Roberts is right next to us. I hear there’s a lot more sightings over military bases, just thought I would include that. I asked the 6 other people (40-60 years old) including retired military and everyone said they have never seen anything like that in their life. It was remarkable, I’ll never forget it
This sub is so fucking compromised by misinformation and paid debunkers, I wouldn't believe anything they say. There is an active campaign to debunk everything now, I was a member for years and now when we are seeing the most credible information the psy op has increased, the mockery, the 'another ufo crazy' Ask yourself ' why when a post is well liked and on the surface credible , can you scroll down and then you see the debunkers restart and not stop, all agreeing with eachother'?
Your story sounds amazing, hope you can get some answers.
Edit: grammar
> When we zoom in on our phones our screens goes bright white scrambled.
What does that mean? Within the camera app, or beyond?
Did it happen when taking both a photo and video?
What does "scrambled" mean? Describe it.
Was the "bright white" due to light from the object? Or was it as if it was affecting your phone, somehow?
Man same here, i saw stars that started to move, and just like you mentioned - one star (not as bright as the main one) started to mimick the movement of the star, being in a distance from the main star but followed the movements. Check out my post, i also photographed this thing with my camera, and it looks pretty weird. Also you cans see the stars in the black, they are just tiny dots.

Okay so I am now officially freaked out. “They” whoever is behind this phenomenon don’t want us to poke around in “their” business, even though many stories of them poking into our business. What is the plan to open lines of communication with these entities? Anyone have a theory?
It sounds like the autokinetic effect. It’s actually a phenomenon of your eye where your brain loses tracking of an object on a dark background and it makes things appear to move. You can read more about it [here](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autokinetic_effect).

WSINT 24A 05/28/2024 - 06/12/2024 just wrapped up and has now flowed into Bamboo Eagle exercise utilizing W283 airspace off the central California coast. Perhaps you saw participants from WSINT and Bamboo Eagle.
It’s military exercise season off the coast of California right now. If you’re paying attention, you’re likely to see some weird shit as Bamboo Eagle is typically the precursor to Gray Flag. Gray Flag is a military exercise that happens off the coast of central California and in the desert of Nevada that utilizes classified/black aircraft and other assets of similar nature.
“U.S. Air Force Weapons School Integration (WSINT) is a series of complex, large-force employment missions that serve as the capstone portion of Weapons School classes, which take place twice a year. WSINT involves the planning and execution of every aspect of air, space and cyber combat operations, with joint force components converging over the Nevada Test and Training Range. Source: Nellis AFB”
“Bamboo Eagle is designed to provide advanced training in a disaggregated, multi-domain scenario in order to sustain and strengthen the ability of the joint and coalition force to prevail in conflict when necessary. The eight-day exercise takes place in various locations across the United States as well as designated sea and airspace in the eastern Pacific. Warfighters implement all-domain combat-power generation from multiple basing locations throughout the western part of the U.S., while conducting distributed command and control, agile logistics, and air-to-air refueling.

I saw something very similar in Louisiana a few months ago. They almost looked like they were dancing around each other, and they had small trails behind them.
I saw a giant ball of light come up from the horizon around 5:45 am pst time and it was just hovering above for almost 10 hours before slowly disappearing into the Pacific Ocean. It was so bright that I wasn’t able to look at it directly or even record it.
There is an alien base off the coast of California. Not surprised you saw a bunch of them inland. They’ve been known to do that near vandenburg. Our f18 radars have been jammed by them and they get a fuzzy screen too. The aliens are likely well aware of how to jam Electronic Devices.
I talked to my gf she is still thinking about it. She talked to her parents who have lived in my neighbor for 25 years and said they have seen something similar once. They were surprised at all and completely believed her.
There’s most likely a huge USO/ UAP base, it’s near of Santa Barbra, used to be able to find what looked like an underwater structure about 2500’ down, but the exact spot has been crudely air brushed off Google maps. (The smear is easy to find)
Go figure they’ve had perfectly clear marine navigational mapping for years, then people had to make it all about themselves on social media, now it’s a smudge 😂. Still multiple images with sources, but officially it no longer exists.
Did you happen to notice that you were outside longer than you realized? You and your friends might have been placed into a bubble of slower spacetime, one in which your perceptions were being manipulated. This might also disrupt the normal functions of your phone.
This sort of thing might also be responsible for the many reports of environments becoming very quiet and the atmosphere getting "heavier " during encounters.
About 15 years ago, I had one stop over the head of my cousin and myself. Close enough that I could tell you every detail about it; close enough to throw a rock at it. It came out from behind the clouds and stopped right over us. I couldn't tell you how much time passed, but it was clearly observing us. Then it disappeared faster than I've ever seen anything move. It disappeared silently and almost instantaneously. I'll never forget it, and my cousin never wants to talk about it.
Now, I ask for them to come back when I look out in the sky at night, but I've never seen another since.
Generally, these phenomena always occur in a way that prevents people from capturing clear photographic or video evidence. Whether it is advanced technology from a different planet / solar system / galaxy - or whether it is from a different dimension or spiritual plane - or even ***if*** it's simply an instance of far advanced human technology (I have reasons why I do not believe this is this case) ... the entities who are behind such phenomena are ***acutely*** aware of who is observing as well as what the potential is for an observer to document the phenomenon.
They simply don't overlook such things. And if ever they are blindsided by an observer they did not expect, they quickly take action to make sure that sensitive information is not compromised. Generally this is through simple technological manipulation, but not exclusively. And depending on the actor and their motives, they may be willing to take more drastic (sometimes unpleasant) actions to prevent what they would consider undesirable outcomes.
This ain't the bush leagues. A lot of thought and caution goes into the goings on. And if ever damage control needs to be activated, they don't fuck around. They achieve their goal(s) and they do so efficiently.
Yes, these things are real. You’ve been told they aren’t. They are. There is a lot to understand and we’re all still learning, I hope you take it positively as many of them want to help us.
I wouldn’t say I was ever a skeptic. I am open to ideas and I know our solar system is never ending so I knew there was a possibility of something else. After what I saw there’s no doubt in my mind that there’s something out there that is beyond anything we can possibly comprehend
Report it to NUFORC! There may be others as well..Thanks for sharing.
Did you record the white screen, even with another phone?
Experiencer here- I don’t have this evidence either. Six years ago, my father who was a retired nuclear engineer passed away. He lived in Bellingham,WA. I had flown out from east coast for the funeral. While staying at my dad’s house, I woke up to a very bright white light completely engulfing the bedroom I was in. Initially I thought it must be emergency vehicles, but then there was no noise- no sound at all. It was the light that woke me. I thought I would call 911 but my phone screen was scrolling through my contacts and through data, and I was not able to use it at all. Mt phone behaved like the phones did initially in for season of SWR. I won’t lie- I was frightened and threw my phone face down until it stopped which was about a half hour. This occurred about 1:00 a.m. BUT then a neighbor popped over our family home the next day. She started talking about a strobe light effect coming from her portable phone that was circulating throughout her house. I asked her when this happened the previous night. She says it was about one a.m. I think I had an experience but that’s all I have to report. There are things my mind is associating with this event. Though maybe it was nothing. Point is- I wouldn’t have been able to use my phone.
we gotta go back to polaroids!
But without a flash. Don't flash UAP. Bad idea.
Yes, or start investing in infrared or something. It looking to me as though the UAP can cloak themselves and stop electronic devices at will.
When I was 7, I woke up to a similar effect but I actually saw the craft. I woke up to my room being fully illuminated from my window, middle of the night in the middle of nowhere. I thought it was a car turning around in our driveway with their high beams on for a sec. I tried to look out my window and saw it was coming from the sky, so I snuck out front expecting to see a helicopter. It was a yellowish glowing disc. It was about the width of 3 or 4 SUVs end to end. No sound. I couldn't make out details, literally looked like plasma. About 200 feet up. It hovered, slowly and steadily across my property and behind the treeline behind the neighbors house. It was bright enough that the ground looked daytime under it, the light it cast spread a good acre or so. I eventually lost sight of it. The entire time I looked at it, I didn't even think 'aliens'. I remember thinking "I'm not supposed to be out here and I'm not supposed to see this". And I went back to bed terrified.
Thanks for sharing your experience. It’s hard to shake that off as nothing isn’t it? How long did you have to observe?
It gave me nightmares for years. It was probably a minute or 2 before it left my sight.
It’s the unknown and feeling as though we are dealing with an intelligence that far outmatches ours. Have you had any more experiences since?
>Six years ago, my father who was a retired nuclear engineer passed away. can you talk about his career? entertaining your experience, I instinctively feel like the "light" was probably there searching for something related to your father maybe? We know that there's some sort of a link between this phenomenon as recorded in the government and the Department of Energy, and things related to nuclear power and weapons. Keeping in mind that you and the neighbours phones went haywire, maybe the entity was trying to search for something? a digital record? something else? Do you have access to that house still? But if we were to think like this, it raises more questions than it answers. Because IF my guess is true, then that means the light wasn't controlled by "aliens," but by someone.who'd have access to your dad's credentials and stuff like address. Try to connect strange dots about his life and see if something makes sense!
My father was a nuclear engineer in the energy production aspect. He did work at the Barnwell reprocessing plant before it was shut down, at Los Alamos NM, etc. He never disclosed anything top secret but certainly did work with DOD under contracts. He also worked to decommission the mustard gas bombs and the nuclear plant at Johnson Island. And you are pointing out something to me that DEFINITELY crossed my mind. Tell me more about your thoughts. I used to make jokes about being protected by my cone of safety before sharing something, then on SWR they are actually in a cone, lol. So anyway sticking my neck out a little- I don’t think he had anything to share beyond his intense interest in the subject of NHI or he would have. I was monitored periodically (wiring tapping, being followed etc) during his security clearances. I always was vocal about the dangerous matches we held in our hands and nowhere to safely store nuclear waste. But do share your thoughts.
> I don’t think he had anything to share beyond his intense interest in the subject of NHI or he would have. He did? That's interesting. A man who never mentioned anything to his family probably didn't leave any sensitive documents or material lying around. BUT if the light was actually "searching" for something, I wonder what it could've been. Or maybe there's an entirely different explanation for the light, who knows haha
Incredible story! I wonder if this effect on cell phones is a newer aspect of the phenomenon?
When I saw the phones doing this (can’t remember whose phone) on one of the first few episodes of SWR I recognized it immediately and I thought how silly of me to let fear take over such that I wouldn’t have this chance to meet NHI. But then what if it wasn’t a positive experience? Well there are a million different ways I could have reacted and the way I acted was out of fear. I may regret that for rest of my life.
I didn’t even think to but let me ask around and see if anyone else did
Post the video where it’s scrambled? Really 30 minutes of zig zagging and you didn’t record any of the reactions, commentary, or light diffusion?
Ppl on this sub are so entitled idk if it's funny or sad. You should ask Jerry Corbell who actually just saw a ufo for the first time recently why he didn't record his sighting of 10 mins. He claims he didn't on purpose
So often people who see the phenomenon literally don't even consider taking photos, even with a camera in their pocket. Something about the phenomenon often seems to make people just not consider photographing it
I agree completely. I've had a close encounter and there are multiple reasons why I didn't take out my phone. I was scared for 1. Then it was so random and abrupt that I didn't even think of my phone. My sighting only lasted like 30 secs though and I was really making sure I didn't get abducted, as crazy as that sounds But I was just addressing the ppl complaining about op not getting a vid while phone was messing up
Sometimes I wish I could have an experience but hearing stuff like this makes me second guess that desire. "Be careful what you wish for" and all that
I have had multiple been scared twice the other times not. For me the closer the encounter the higher the threshold for fear goes up. If you can have an experience at a distance it's ok. When it comes right up on you the fear level dramatically increases and I believe the reason why is internally you know when its on top of you that it is directly interested in you specifically. And that being observed by something that is probably as intelligent or more than you and is not homosapien is a lot to process. You have no idea what it's motives are whether it knows empathy if it has ill intent towards you. And that is a scary proposition.
Yeah it can be pretty scary but it didn't hurt me or anything. So looking back I regret getting so scared an actually want it to happen again. What's cool is that I've only heard of the same UFO I saw twice. A lady described to me a very similar looking UFO chasing her car a few cities over from me and a friend said he saw the same thing at the beach. But then it sucks because I have had a personal encounter with something I'll probably never have the answer to
That's still so cool thank you for sharing
Yeah no problem I love sharing my story
It's good to reconsider because being terrified by witnessing something impossible scars your brain for life. After my sighting I was forever doubting my own eyes and always worried about mental illness or at least my own sense of judgement. It's not the thrill ride some make it out to be.
I was asked the same thing, considering I was a journalist at the time and there was a camera in the back seat I could have used. But when you're terrified you don't think "camera", just "am I gonna die now?"
Definitely makes you prioritize surviving above all else.
I don’t think you are crazy at all about abduction concern. I have found that Walton,Strieber and others tell very compelling experiences . So I actually had same thoughts- I mean I can’t even take a vacay because I have responsibilities ya know? I’m curious how are the group researching high strangeness at SWR are going to establish communications with they discover NHI and overcome some initial panic at seeing a nonhuman entity. What could we do better than rely on our basic instincts to something totally out of our ordinary existence?
I mean ffs that is the most untrustworthy thing I've heard about him yet if I'm being honest
I mean... *If* NHI can detect your consciousness, and *if* NHI can see your intentions without you actively communicating them, and *if* NHI want to remain hidden, then of course they would interfere with digital recording devices. I think if Corbell had tried to get a recording, we still wouldn't have a recording. Better that he immerse himself in the moment and collect as much qualitative data as he could.
OSHASHA2 , Thank you for being intelligent enough to get some aspects to this phenomenon. You are correct on most of that. They have a purpose for doing what they do for the individual or group....it's not meant for everyone. They are aware and they are way above our abilities . They can interfere with technology with ease, and if you do get some recording....it's because they allowed you to. Some people are just so myopic and self serving on what they want....they don't realize that same behaviour is keeping them from getting to see these UAPs for themselves . Their appearances is of their design, it's purposeful, ....and it blows my mind that some of the "demandy" types don't realize that maybe "demanding" is an approach that these entities aren't fond of. If you have a new neighbor others have met but they haven't met you...do you walk into their house uninvited? Do you demand your other neighbors take photos of them? Or do you ask the other neighbors who met them some questions? And use that to maybe find a similar pattern that they share that made the new neighbors want to meet them. I have so much empathy for people and I remember before ....wanting to see for myself that they were real. But now after seeing UAPs and other high strangeness....I just understand why they keep distance from so many people. It's very complex and the phenomenon touches on a lot of different content....but for sure, the crowd that behaves like whiny children and scream at others for their encounters, demand pictures...are their own worst enemies. Maybe being illusive and seeing how you respond is their way of gauging on whether they want you attached to the phenomenon in any way. Food for thought for some, disregarded by those who sabotage their own chances, and a path for those in earnest who want to see.
I think our fear that our thoughts can be so easily read stems somewhat from our belief that human thinking is superior to every other kind of thinking by other animals. We may find that the reason we can't communicate with other creatures is that we just don't hear them, even though they are sending us information all the time, by thought. Maybe animals talk to each other this way and we haven't caught on, because humans developed the capacity to talk verbally, so we didn't need to develop other ways.
If you live in nature long enough, you can learn its language. The birds will tell you about the weather, and when there are predators or intruders around. The plants will tell you about the hydrology of the place and small animals about the availability of high-quality food. The insects can tell you about the climate –they are becoming a quiet bunch. And if there were still megafauna around, they might tell us to stay in our lane.
This is so very true. Nature talks to us all the time. If your still and observant you can see and hear it.

I guess I shouldn’t have said scramble. It would be as if you are zooming into the sun. It just turned bright white. I know my neighbors recorded it I’ll get a video after work, relax
[удалено]
I don’t think so because as soon as I barely zoomed in my screen went white. It wasn’t like I went full zoom
I believe your experience, thank you for sharing it. You can see why people may choose not to share their experiences right here in this thread.
A lot of UFO sightings report the same thing. Ppl wonder why there aren't many clear video and pics but fail to take this fact into account. Who is gonna record a white blob on their screen & upload it? That would just give the naysayers more ammo to try and discount this subject. Btw, thanks for sharing your experience. 🫡
The Navy pilot that tells his story on the Nimitz said the same thing. The only reason they were able to get that video on the tracking device was because it was not infrared. It was some kind of analog device. But they said all their cameras got jammed and had the similar reaction to what you're talking about
Thanks for saying that. I’m not sure if folks are understanding , bright white light was coming in through a window in back bedroom of the house. It was when I thought to call to find out if emergency services was called that my phone went whacky. Obviously it’s had a profound impact on me, because I happened to experience the phenomenon and immediately after my father’s passing. I sure would have picked something else to get focused on. It happened and I deeply want to know more about why

😂 So you have a “helpful” neighbor too huh? Well bless their hearts.
Remind me ! 24 hours
Were waiting
It's after work
Thanks, can someone do the remind me thing?
No I don't know how
Any update?
2 days and still nothing...
Op story could be bs or it could be the truth but tbh I think phone scrambling or just tech scrambling in general is a serious thing when it comes to UAP experiences
Hey Congratz to now bring one of the people who have seen some crazy shit. Now comes the why and what and what is life part.
He’s trolling. Look at his name
Lasy night, in Warsaw, Poland I saw similar thing, but here was a 3rd object, a bit dimer than first two (no clouds, clear sky, a bit poluted with light). I was on my balcony and I thought 'oh cool, haven't seen it so early before'. And then it struck me - it is too early for this star group, it's on wrong side of the sky and it's far too early. I went inside to grab my phone to take pics and vid, but it was already gone. All of the three objects.. 11:42 PM local time.
i live in Southern California and have seen this before. had chills reading this. they look far away to be stars at first and then sike! wild
Are you able to post the vid? I know it’s fruitless and will prob see nothing but it’d be interesting to see the distortion on video
Do we have any sightings ever in the uk ? Do we have a reddit sub for uk UFOs? If we do have sightings were is the most spotted places.
/u/caffeinedrinker has a 🇬🇧 sub
Thanks so much have a good evening
You as well, friend!
where we drink tea, eat jam sarnies and look at ufo stuff :) ;) thanks /u/SabineRitter
/r/ufouk enjoy, submissions welcome :)
ufouk-n wot, m8 (Sorry, it's an old meme, but I had to do it)
haha its all good made chuckle :D
Bonnybridge Scotland is probably THE most notable for sightings. Then the UK is known for its crop circles. You should have a sub if you’re unable to find one.
I did hear that on the East coast of England near nuke power stations, (Heysham 1 and 2 perhaps?) uap have been observed.
I think before summer is over i will definitely be taking a trip to see whats there.
Be sure to tell us if you had a sighting. And, don’t forget to contact MUFON!!!!
So you do have a recording? Please upload it. We would love to see the scrambled video.
How far are you from Vandenberg AFB?
One hour. But remember, this thing was most likely in space so just because it looked like it was above me doesn’t mean it was. Just pointing that out
For sure. I lived in San Luis Obispo for about 3 years (many moons ago) and me and several college friends had strange sightings there. I saw a bunch of crescent shaped lights that zoomed and bounced all around me. Still bugs me to this day. No idea what it was. But I knew from that point forward that I had no idea what “reality” meant. Consider yourself lucky.
[удалено]
The zig-zagging you describe leads me to believe that you really saw something interesting.
Thats what gave me goosebumps. When I saw the tiny blue star mimicking it was when it became surreal. I am well versed in gazing at stars and satellites and even airplanes that pass over occasionally. This was none of those.
I believe you. I've seen a zigzagging light, it was in Cape Town and just one hour after a merchant vessel off Argentina saw 3 orbs of light come out of the ocean and zigzagged off. The rate of speed I saw the thing going, and then STOPPING above me and lighting me up scared the shit out of me, I was in disbelief! One reason for the "zigzag" maneuver I've heard is that it is the best way to avoid being shot/zapped/target locked etc.
I always wondered why these things are so prone to zig zagging in this abrupt manner, considering it seems like such a colossal waste of energy. But this does sound like a plausible theory for that
Such a shame that we don’t have more video of these objects doing this. But at least you gave it a shot. Thanks for sharing!
Central coaster here, I saw a huge crescent shaped ufo while my wife and I were in our backyard a few years ago. Then it just shot off as if when in Star Wars and they use hyperdrive. Like this delayed charge up for a split moment then poof. Disappeared over the roof. Large crescent on one side and two smaller crescents on the backside. Was green in color. Weird
If it were "in space" then it should have been visible to millions of people in California...yet nobody else seems to have reported anything strange...
If interference is a thing, we should start carrying around clear faraday bags
It's not a thing. Saying the screens "all went white" isn't even an accurate description of how interference would work.
I know how scrambling works. It didn’t scramble my phone, my phone was completely operational. I could select my camera and point it at the sky in that direction, everything is normal. As soon as I start zooming my screen would turn white and getting bright as if I’m zooming in on the sun. When I zoomed back out my phone was fine and was normal again. Zoom back in, same thing
So my phone was one of those newest latest greatest at that time(2018) and it was searching contacts or scrolling up and down my list, randomly lighting up buttons, and showed the effects exactly as did Dr.TT or who? In season one of SWR. As I touched buttons to get control I just didn’t have any control to zoom or dial at all .
Uh huh. No video of this phenomenon, huh?
I had a similar experience once, believe it was the autokinetic effect. Have you heard of this?
Especially the way he describes the two lights moving exactly in synchronous movements.
I actually experienced this for the first time on Sunday night. It can be pretty startling but once you realise all of the stars are doing it it’s clear something is up with your eyes.
When I saw it only the one star was moving, very odd experience though. I feel quite lucky to have seen some cool things in the sky but still waiting for the biggie.
Keep looking up man. Although I’ve discounted what I saw Sunday I’ve seen other things come right over me that cannot be tricks of the mind of eye. This stuff is around.
Yes I saw something similar a few days ago. I always observe the skies when able. Was taking the dogs out for their final pee of the evening, looked over the house and was pleased that the sky was clear and could see dozens of stars (Florida so plenty of light pollution). As I watched for anything remarkable (usually only planes which are abundant) I noticed one star was moving relative to the others. I thought oh cool the space station or other large satellite. In appearance no different than the other bright stars. I was excited because I was certain it was moving, then it changed direction. Then I noticed another moving object, since I was intently staring at that region of the sky using the other stars as reference points. I am seeing two objects making dynamic movements and my pulse is elevated and my phone is inside charging. I speculated that they were engaged in combat possibly with each other or with some other crap. It faded away after 30 seconds and I told my wife and she said that’s nice. 🥲
Yeah that does sound a little similar, this was the brightest “star” in the sky. Reason I keep saying star is because that’s exactly what it looked like, either in our atmosphere or in space. But it was clear as day, as bright as the North Star. The other “star” was blue in color and was smaller and less bright (or maybe a lot further away) but it mimicked the bright star perfectly. I’m talking like a mirror, they would zig zag exactly the same, move the same direction at the same time, it almost was like a reflection. I just don’t get it, the only thing I have seen that has that kind of movement is a drone that can hover, move side to side, up and down, zig zag. But this was way higher than a drone could ever be, I’m thinking it was in space.
I honestly wonder wtf the Space Force has been up to behind closed doors.
Crazy stuff I would imagine. The best way I can describe it is how a drone operates where it can hover, move side to side, up and down, diagonal, etc. But imagine that drone being 2 stars in the sky mimicking each other perfectly
lol I knew I’d snag downvotes for even suggesting it was mundane. I imagine that they know way way waaay more than we do and there’s a *lot* going on in the skies that involves both earthly and non-earthly vehicles interacting, and that we also see Space Force training & readying exercises. ETA: did you see the other recent post with video of two star-like lights cross crossing?
>after 30 seconds and I told my wife and she said that’s nice. 🥲 i don't mean to be sexist when I say this but women have such a talent when it comes to bringing people crashing down to reality haha
So just to be clear OP, you first opened your camera app and were zooming in BEFORE you pressed record? Why didn't you initially open the camera app, press record, and then try to focus on the anomaly? Do people really try to frame up a shot before they record a video, I'm confused.
You couldn’t see anything on regular screen it just looked like the sky, as soon as I barely zoomed in my sceen went white. I wasn’t even able to go full zoom
Did it look like a software bug then or something? Did your *entire* screen go white? Or was the light sensor simply being blasted by the moon light and thus all white?
I don’t know if we should trust this guy, just saying.
Normally I would say it was all in my head but I had just got off work and was very much sober. And the others were as well.
Nah, you can’t fool us, we know you’re never sober.
11 years ago when I made this account I wasn’t, still working on it every day
I was going to ask. Congrats!! Day by day is the best any of us can do! I celebrated 25 years in May.
Heck yeah, proud of you!
Did just the camera viewfinder/display go white/scrambled or was it the full phone screen? You say it scrambled when you zoomed in. Did anyone try filming anything else around it then? I want to believe this. Legitimately. But we really need at least *something* visual and a 30 minute encounter with 7 witnesses and no photos or video is... odd (I do see your comment here about asking other witnesses for video, so I'm hopeful here).
In another reply I responded, I will talk to my neighbors and gf after work, I won’t leave you guys hanging
Did you film it regardless of interference? Would be a very useful video to show how these objects affected your camera, please tell me you recorded it..
Thoughts: Interesting username. Also...ermahgerd gersberms!
I made it 11 years ago, my post history has never said anything far fetched
I think I need a trip to Target now for boxed wine after that!
I’ve seen something similar very close to sea level, similar movement. 2003, July, 3am. Old Motorola phone, so no photos, wouldn’t have even thought of taking a photo anyways. Five observers including myself, no one said a thing the entire time. Object estimated to be over 150’ wide. Rectangular. Moved in a “plus-sign” pattern and colour pattern was red, blue, green, yellow repeat (about 1 second per colour change) 15 minutes observed. At the end of 15 minutes, it returns to centre position turns clear then shoots straight up into the atmosphere lighting up the clouds briefly as it passed through and disappeared into space. It went from approx. 300’ above sea level to cirrus clouds in a couple/few seconds. Completely silent. It was amazing to watch.
So, no video at least of the ‘scrambling’? You just figured, “hey my camera suspiciously scrambles when I point it at the UAP, let me not even bother recording the phenomenon”?
Every time it turned bright white I would turn off my camera to see if it was something I was doing. When it happened to everyone else I knew it wasn’t just me. I’ll ask my neighbors and gf what they have, I won’t leave you guys hanging
I believe you. Me and my wife. Often sit in our backyard at night and see similar things. They always look like stars, but move all around and stop. Typically when we see the “stars” moving, moments after there is always a scramble of jets in the area. I unfortunately only have an iPhone 7 so the recording is pointless. We’ve had multiple sightings in our back yard, including blue/purple lights that hovered over our roof for a short amount of time. I stopped trying to explain myself to people because you always get the same negative responses. Me and my wife now just take it all in, whenever we see them. To add to this, we live in the Amish country in a tiny village in NY. Very close to Lake Ontario.
I might be able to see if it was some kind of satellite. Would you be able to be more specific on location and time? Apart from the zig zag movements, could you describe it's overall position in relation to the moon? Did it stay in that part of the sky or did it move from there? For example, "it was just above the moon but after the 30 minutes it was further to the left" or something like that?
It happened during sunset (PST) and lasted for at the least the 30 minutes we saw it (it was dark when we finally left). Hold a dollar up to the sky on the right side of the moon. It stayed in that small of a vicinity the entire time.
Ok, here is a recreation of the sky last night. [https://imgur.com/a/dxJpDeI](https://imgur.com/a/dxJpDeI) I have removed all of the fast moving (low altitude) satellites. The ones that remain are those in sunlight so would be *possible* to produce a visible light. Nothing seems to match you description though so I don't think it was a satellite. EDIT: I'm not ruling out a satellite. After learning OP's exact location and looking again and researching a couple of satellites that were in the area, I have a hunch, but I would like to see a video for clarification before speculating
Yeah there was absolutely no certain direction. It would be moving left, stop, hover, then move right. But the scariest were the zig zags. And then seeing the small blue star mimicking the brighter star identically was when it really took it to another level. It was almost as if both stars were being controlled by the same operator
Very similar to my experience. Was laying in bed looking at the brightest stars when I notice one that wasn't there before but looks just like the brightest one but then it starts to do some wild erratic zigzag movements and then dips. Have not seen anything like that before or ever since.
Where did you get this video? That’s pretty cool!
I just made it using the software Stellarium. It's an astronomy tool for seeing how the sky looks at any time or place, and it has a plug-in for satellites. The best thing is it's free!
That’s awesome! I’m going to download it right now.
Cool! It's fun to play with if you are interested in space and stuff
You may like this site, you can zoom really far into deep space objects. I’ve only tried it on PC and I’m not sure how well it works on a phone. Check it out! https://worldwidetelescope.org/webclient/
How far back will the app go? Say around the first of May?
What county are you in?
SLO county, Paso Robles, CA. Remember though, this wasn’t close to me at all. It looked like it was in space or at least 2-3x as high as a plane would travel.
N...nice username...
I saw something like this 2 years ago it was 4am and I was on my morning run and saw a bright star. I kept looking at it and maybe about 2 mins later it zig-zaged away super fast! I also saw the same thing when i was in 3rd grade when I was walking home with my brother.
Likely autokinetic effect : “The autokinetic effect is an optical illusion. It occurs when a perceiver staring at a stationary pinpoint of light in an otherwise completely dark visual field believes that the light moves from its fixed position. This “self-motion” (auto-kinetic) is caused, in part, by the nearly imperceptible movements of the eye known as saccades. Ordinarily the visual system compensates for these naturally occurring motions of the eye, but when only a single light is visible with no frame of reference, the light appears to wander in unpredictable directions and at variable speeds. This illusion was first noted by astronomers when viewing a single star on a very dark night.” https://scholarship.richmond.edu/jepson-faculty-publications/162/#:~:text=It%20occurs%20when%20a%20perceiver,the%20eye%20known%20as%20saccades.
Commenting on Me and 6 other people saw multiple UAP’s last night... can we read comments?
Can you?
Nice. First they lure us with advanced tech like "smart phones". Then, we realize they control this tech in depth, to the point where they can display a "censored" logo if you zoom in on their criminal activities.
Saw something similar as well last night that I thought was a a star in so cal. It sat in one place for a few minutes then almost “evaporated”. All that was remaining was what looked like an atmospheric distortion in the shape of an hourglass.
When people ask where the videos are this is the answer. They have the ability to disrupt electronic devices
I'd be willing to believe this if it was fairly up close. But OP describes it as looking like a star in the sky, so it must've been pretty far off. If camera's could be disrupted by it from that far, I feel like people would be constantly having problems with their phones. Does the UAP detect when it's being filmed and scramble devices accordingly or does it scramble all electronic devices within vicinity (again, consider how far away this thing must've been in both scenarios).
My phone worked perfectly fine if I using it. It even worked fine when I pointed at the sky toward it. It wasn’t until I zoomed in that it started doing that
They seem to react to observation, here's a video where the object gets blurry on zoom-in https://old.reddit.com/r/HighStrangeness/comments/1ddbixk/this_round_black_thing_looked_stranger_than_my/ video, daytime cloudy sky, single dark object, black ⚫️, horizontal trajectory, moving and stationary, my mind starts seeing it as either a tiny portal or, it looked like the sky was like a wallpaper and that tiny black dot was a bug., electronic effects camera, **whenever I'd zoom in, it'd get blurry.** , duration 10-15 minutes, Iran 🇮🇷, [GOODPOST], animal reaction lots of crows surrounding it., /u/soitgoes__again
It was the weirdest thing. I pointed at it with my phone but as soon as I started zooming in, my phone would turn white and have this weird static on the image, same with my girlfriends, then the 6 people tried and all the same (mind you zooming into a black sky, it should be black). We watched it for as long as we could but they just stayed in the same general area in the sky. Also another thing I forgot to add, Camp Roberts is right next to us. I hear there’s a lot more sightings over military bases, just thought I would include that. I asked the 6 other people (40-60 years old) including retired military and everyone said they have never seen anything like that in their life. It was remarkable, I’ll never forget it
No, ability to disrupt signal chains is more accurate, don't you think ?
lmfao come on man. edit: blocked me within 4 minutes lmfao
It's been known to happen since the first encounters with aliens. Learn the phenomenon before commenting on it.
This sub is so fucking compromised by misinformation and paid debunkers, I wouldn't believe anything they say. There is an active campaign to debunk everything now, I was a member for years and now when we are seeing the most credible information the psy op has increased, the mockery, the 'another ufo crazy' Ask yourself ' why when a post is well liked and on the surface credible , can you scroll down and then you see the debunkers restart and not stop, all agreeing with eachother'? Your story sounds amazing, hope you can get some answers. Edit: grammar
[удалено]
Username checks out
Catalina Island is one of the place they come from
> When we zoom in on our phones our screens goes bright white scrambled. What does that mean? Within the camera app, or beyond? Did it happen when taking both a photo and video? What does "scrambled" mean? Describe it. Was the "bright white" due to light from the object? Or was it as if it was affecting your phone, somehow?
Hypersonic missiles. They move like that fyi.
So do we have an update on the video, OP?
Any update OP? Was it the autokinetic effect?
Man same here, i saw stars that started to move, and just like you mentioned - one star (not as bright as the main one) started to mimick the movement of the star, being in a distance from the main star but followed the movements. Check out my post, i also photographed this thing with my camera, and it looks pretty weird. Also you cans see the stars in the black, they are just tiny dots. https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/1d6ur3r/sighting_in_joshua_tree_june_1_after_contact_in/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=2&utm_term=1
Welcome to the party pal!
Okay so I am now officially freaked out. “They” whoever is behind this phenomenon don’t want us to poke around in “their” business, even though many stories of them poking into our business. What is the plan to open lines of communication with these entities? Anyone have a theory?
It sounds like the autokinetic effect. It’s actually a phenomenon of your eye where your brain loses tracking of an object on a dark background and it makes things appear to move. You can read more about it [here](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autokinetic_effect).
8 of us were experiencing that at the same time?
A lot of people have described these kinds of movements while looking at what turns out to be Sirius.
good possibility you might have seen the real deal.
FYI “Published June 18, 2024 By SLD 30 Public Affairs Space Launch Delta 30 VANDENBERG SPACE FORCE BASE, Calif. -- An operational test launch of an unarmed Mk21A reentry vehicle was launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base aboard a Minotaur I rocket, Monday, June 17, at 11:01 p.m. PT.”
This was way before 11pm and I see rocket launches all the time from VSFB
WSINT 24A 05/28/2024 - 06/12/2024 just wrapped up and has now flowed into Bamboo Eagle exercise utilizing W283 airspace off the central California coast. Perhaps you saw participants from WSINT and Bamboo Eagle.
What's that?
It’s military exercise season off the coast of California right now. If you’re paying attention, you’re likely to see some weird shit as Bamboo Eagle is typically the precursor to Gray Flag. Gray Flag is a military exercise that happens off the coast of central California and in the desert of Nevada that utilizes classified/black aircraft and other assets of similar nature. “U.S. Air Force Weapons School Integration (WSINT) is a series of complex, large-force employment missions that serve as the capstone portion of Weapons School classes, which take place twice a year. WSINT involves the planning and execution of every aspect of air, space and cyber combat operations, with joint force components converging over the Nevada Test and Training Range. Source: Nellis AFB” “Bamboo Eagle is designed to provide advanced training in a disaggregated, multi-domain scenario in order to sustain and strengthen the ability of the joint and coalition force to prevail in conflict when necessary. The eight-day exercise takes place in various locations across the United States as well as designated sea and airspace in the eastern Pacific. Warfighters implement all-domain combat-power generation from multiple basing locations throughout the western part of the U.S., while conducting distributed command and control, agile logistics, and air-to-air refueling.

Thank you!
I saw something very similar in Louisiana a few months ago. They almost looked like they were dancing around each other, and they had small trails behind them.
I saw a giant ball of light come up from the horizon around 5:45 am pst time and it was just hovering above for almost 10 hours before slowly disappearing into the Pacific Ocean. It was so bright that I wasn’t able to look at it directly or even record it.
I saw something so similar last night but we are states apart is that even possible. It was pretty high up in space
It’s possible… we saw planes flying during this whole event and they were no where near it. It has to be in space, it looked just like a bright star
Yeah but they were moving right? Shit was weird high up in the sky I saw red flashes they mostly appeared as white
You saw aliens / higher beings! Good work to all of you :-)
How do you feel?
There is an alien base off the coast of California. Not surprised you saw a bunch of them inland. They’ve been known to do that near vandenburg. Our f18 radars have been jammed by them and they get a fuzzy screen too. The aliens are likely well aware of how to jam Electronic Devices.
Check with them today, does everybody remember it? Sometimes people will see that shit and then just not remember they saw it
I talked to my gf she is still thinking about it. She talked to her parents who have lived in my neighbor for 25 years and said they have seen something similar once. They were surprised at all and completely believed her.
Report it, it’s your duty
Cool experience!!!
There’s most likely a huge USO/ UAP base, it’s near of Santa Barbra, used to be able to find what looked like an underwater structure about 2500’ down, but the exact spot has been crudely air brushed off Google maps. (The smear is easy to find) Go figure they’ve had perfectly clear marine navigational mapping for years, then people had to make it all about themselves on social media, now it’s a smudge 😂. Still multiple images with sources, but officially it no longer exists.
Skeptic I believe you and I do believe there’s other life out there. We (my family and myself) witnessed this up by the border of Canada.
Socialclimbs she posted her phone wouldn’t record for over 30 minutes. Her phone screen was white and it was scanning all her contacts
Did you happen to notice that you were outside longer than you realized? You and your friends might have been placed into a bubble of slower spacetime, one in which your perceptions were being manipulated. This might also disrupt the normal functions of your phone. This sort of thing might also be responsible for the many reports of environments becoming very quiet and the atmosphere getting "heavier " during encounters.
I see UFOs all the time here in Arizona
About 15 years ago, I had one stop over the head of my cousin and myself. Close enough that I could tell you every detail about it; close enough to throw a rock at it. It came out from behind the clouds and stopped right over us. I couldn't tell you how much time passed, but it was clearly observing us. Then it disappeared faster than I've ever seen anything move. It disappeared silently and almost instantaneously. I'll never forget it, and my cousin never wants to talk about it. Now, I ask for them to come back when I look out in the sky at night, but I've never seen another since.
would be crazy if the aliens were actually transporting distant stars around, to rearrange gravity in space or something....
Generally, these phenomena always occur in a way that prevents people from capturing clear photographic or video evidence. Whether it is advanced technology from a different planet / solar system / galaxy - or whether it is from a different dimension or spiritual plane - or even ***if*** it's simply an instance of far advanced human technology (I have reasons why I do not believe this is this case) ... the entities who are behind such phenomena are ***acutely*** aware of who is observing as well as what the potential is for an observer to document the phenomenon. They simply don't overlook such things. And if ever they are blindsided by an observer they did not expect, they quickly take action to make sure that sensitive information is not compromised. Generally this is through simple technological manipulation, but not exclusively. And depending on the actor and their motives, they may be willing to take more drastic (sometimes unpleasant) actions to prevent what they would consider undesirable outcomes. This ain't the bush leagues. A lot of thought and caution goes into the goings on. And if ever damage control needs to be activated, they don't fuck around. They achieve their goal(s) and they do so efficiently.
Yes, these things are real. You’ve been told they aren’t. They are. There is a lot to understand and we’re all still learning, I hope you take it positively as many of them want to help us.
I wouldn’t say I was ever a skeptic. I am open to ideas and I know our solar system is never ending so I knew there was a possibility of something else. After what I saw there’s no doubt in my mind that there’s something out there that is beyond anything we can possibly comprehend
Bro I get goosebumps so frequently I’ve figured out I can turn them on/off at will. That’s bound to come in handy somehow…
OK...do... iiittttttt... ... ... ... ...NOW!!
