    Why are Starlink "Racetrack" Flares [Mostly] Reported from Planes?

    Just heard from the pilot who filmed this latest sighting. The flight details and time of the video are: "Delta 328 aug 23 arriving aug 24. iPhone video labels time as 1245 but I’m not sure what time zone that is… probably 145 pst. Thanks for reaching out!" Will check this out later to see...

    Why are Starlink "Racetrack" Flares [Mostly] Reported from Planes?

    Just deliving into the details of this last sighting.... = Hawaii time = UTC-10, so that is approx 1100UTC. Havent quite been able to identify ZULU track on the Central East Pacific Tracks, but i assume it is one of the northern routes shown on the FlightRadar24 Oceanic Tracks. For the date...

    Why are Starlink "Racetrack" Flares [Mostly] Reported from Planes?

    whilst I agreed with your post, I do think that there have been numerous other pilots that have accepted the Starlink explanation, although not many that are in the public eye.

    Another sighting over the Pacific reported by a pilot on Reddit. Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/1616hx6/airline_sighting_aug_24_over_pacific/ They seem satisfied with the Starlink flare explanation as shown in @Mick West 's videos.. Source...

    UAPs seen by pilots - shared by Ryan Graves

    With a sun elevation of -44° 53' the epicenter of the flares would be appearing at +0° 1' - practically on the horizon, so the flares would become visible as they emerge over the horizon at full brightness and then fade away. That must have looked really weird.

    I think I am the originator of the "cult leader and twitter politician" suggestion, as per my quote below. Note that I said "their position reminds me of" , not that I thought they were those things. For the record - I do not think Ryan Graves is a cult leader or a twitter politician.

    maybe, but I have always found Mick's explanatory YouTube videos to be very simple to understand. The general public are more likely to see one of his videos than read through a whole thread. They are often inserted at the beginning of a thread once an investigation is concluded. I agree that...

    TicTac seen from Airliner near Area 51 (Reddit)

    The original poster said the time was "5:18PM" and near Nellis Air Force Base (Las Vegas), so I just took the time xx.18pm when it was closest to Las Vegas , which was 23:18UTC.

    I dont think you have to click them, they should be embedded in the thread posts. But you might have a link blocker or something on your browser that stops the media appearing. But I take your point, I should have added more detail to the debunk. Also, - yes, the tictac is the Frontier Arlines...

    Hi, This thread was getting some traction on Reddit and Twitter. I started looking into it and bumped in @jarlrmai who helped out in tracking down the airliner and geolacting the video. Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/15wit3i/caught_this_tic_tac_looking_object_near_nellis/...

    Exacty. And the thing is - if 'safe aerospace' is his goal, then informing pilots of prosaic phenomena that pose no physical risk to but do cause a cockpit distraction is just as worthy an endeavor as discovering anomalous phenomena that do pose a risk. I want my airline pilots to be busy flying...

    For anyone, admitting you are wrong and changing your mind is difficult. This goes for UFO fans and skeptics alike. But I still can't quite fathom why they refuse to acknowledge any positive & evidence supported identification of these UAP/lights. Their position reminds me of politicians, or...

    I think this is not really worthwhile in this case yet. without an exact time we won't be able to synchronise the video with Stellarium. There aren't really enough reference points in the video to sync it manually. But hey, if anyone wants to give it a go the TLE data is there.

    The FlightRadar24 playback looses tracking of JBU1910 on 23 July in the area of the sighting, but at an estimate it seems to be around 4am UTC time... And here's in-the-sky.org for that time and coordinates show that there were Starlink satellies in that exact region of the sky, moving left...

    The real question is - why aren't they prepared to say that there are prosaic things in the sky that confuse pilots? They seem to want to mystify every sighting, turn it into 'genuine anomalous phenomena'. I think this one might be a turning point. Ryan has set this one up ready for the big...

    They do, we have many clips of inter-plane chatter on 123.45Mhz talking to each other. Plus there is a thread on pprune.org all about the 'lights over the Atlantic. Maybe once this is investigated Ryan Graves could have Mick on his podcast to explain the Starlink Flare Phenomenon to pilots and...
