Trying to find nets of the same type. These are called Set bag net and are often used in estuaries or rivers where the water current pushes fish into them:

Hi @Mick West For the Maussan stitch, which TLE files are you using? The reason I ask is beacuse I cant get the 'manually configured' nightsky stitch to match up with the Maussan Stitch. I'm using the TLE file from space-track.org that I attached to post #136, dragged and dropped onto Nightsky...

Nice. Not quite as much of a slam dunk as the other videos, but still a good recreation.

Looks like Jaime's Video at 0m15s matches up with 0307:54s UTC, and the pattern and movment of the flares follows suit. I'm not great at syncing videos like this, but will give it a go ;) @Mick West how do we add a kml for the camera location into Sitrec?

To ensure we are using valid Orbital Data for the satellites I went to Space-Track.org and downloaded the Starlink data for 21/22 November 2023. These are attached and can be dragged-and-dropped onto the Globe in Sitrec to load them...

Comparing the various flights from Monterrey to Hermosillo over the past week, there are two which are far enough north to provide the same view of Delicias - but in the video we can see that the plane starts a bank to the left at around the 0m26s mark. Only one of the two does this, and that...

Using the Google Earth Black Marble layer (kmz attached) that shows the lights on Earth as seen at night, I have geolocated the area which the Jaime Maussan video shows. As per his tweet, it is near the town of Delicias, however I dont think the flights that I previously noted would provide this...

The latest from Jaime Moussan... MTY-HMO = Monterrey to Hermosillo Source: https://twitter.com/jaimemaussan1/status/1728056169489437027?t=RRD8V2wDb2j_bbJiA2Ud8Q&s=19 Looks like the flight was VB7083 - but on which date?

The pilot has now posted a photo of a 'cube within a sphre'. I think trying to convince them they saw Starlink is a lost cause. Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/182e305/zoomed_in_photos_of_fast_moving_objects/ Photo from his other thread:

Hmm, Tried to reach out to the pilot but got this response:

Sighting of Starlink Flares reported as UFOs on Reddit again from Southern Massachusetts towards the east around 3am for multiple nights...... Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/1815g37/glowing_orange_lights_in_mass/ Sitrec confrims the presence of Flaring Starlinks...

Just checked using the sitrec, San Francisco should have seen the flares starting around 0400UTC, which is 8pm - so 6pm seems a little early to see them. https://www.metabunk.org/u/207o9D.html

So this has been on Reddit and Twitter today. There seems to be two distinct sightings - the UFO that was seen during the day, and then the light that was seen low in the eastern sky after sunset and is captured on video. Unfortunately there is no footage of the initial incident...

Or could it be a firefly/glowbug?

Some weirdness with sun diretcion arrows when over the rockies.... Permalink: https://www.metabunk.org/u/gy2mqn.html

Lights reported over the Rockies by this pilot on Twitter. I replied saying we'd plug the details into sitrec. Source: https://x.com/marclivolsi/status/1724547072693600598?s=20 Flight Details: 5X957, 12 Nov, OAK-SDF, maybe 0930-ish UTC. (kml attached) 0930UTC puts him at approx 38.817969°...

yeah seems Real Time now. Thanks! just waiting for the sun to get to get low enough to check the flare accuracy!

Maybe we should have a Metabunk competition to see who can make the most convincing fake?
