Perhaps it was Military testing of some weapons/drones.

Most satellites I have seen have been in polar orbit.

That was your quote, not mine.

Re-read my post, #10. My quote was from Hank Williams.

That. Not so much 'upset' as 'trying to maintain focus' on the sighting. And I know it's a bug in the Forum software, I always re-apply them in quotes.

I said I was sorry.

So—moving along—was the sighting in prograde, retrogade or polar motion?

Drones are best viewed at night with 3rd gen night vision as well as cell phones that detect ir radiation.

I heard , as well that ir video will reveal ufo's there is a great video of a man who filmed much activity and had the local news team down with him one 'day' both of them filming with the ir filter removed and low and behold the news team captured the activity as well.


Although to me it looked like a type of St. Elmo's fire. Craft like Ball lighting.
