UFO invasion on not-so-peaceful Greek island of Zakynthos - luckily I was there to witness it from the safety of the hotel's restaurant haha

You could probably earn your restaurant bill flogging that to a tabloid on a slow news day.
Did the restaurant have a lot of lights in the ceiling?UFO invasion on not-so-peaceful Greek island of Zakynthos - luckily I was there to witness it from the safety of the hotel's restaurant haha

Go to spaceweather.com
Scroll down to the item 'Starlink satellite photobomb.
There are two videos. (both interesting)
The second one ('time lapse. think it is)
Run this and as it comes up to 1.14 Minutes look slightly to the left of centre of the screen.
Looks odd.
You may need to run it a couple of times to see what is happening.
It is related to a couple of stars in that area.
What do you see ?
I saw four random flash's around those two stars - none in the same place
... I was wondering if, as it's a time lapse, the flashes are strobes on a plane.. ...
I was wondering if the length of the time lapse could be ascertained from the angular rotation of the stars. Or even derived from the clock that is running in the top left corner.
What I'm thinking is that it may be that the time between frames is longer than it tales the plane to pass over.
So it may only see one set of flashes.
I never ceased to be amazed by what people think are real UFOs; rocket tests and malfunctions, satellites, etc. Skeptics actually serve a valuable role in debunking many of these sightings.Shame I missed this.
Lights spotted in sky over Adelaide and WA were SpaceX satellites, astronomer says
Elon Musk already helps keep the lights on in South Australia — but now he's lighting up the sky.
Key points:
- SA and WA residents reported seeing bright objects in a line in the sky last night
- An astronomer says they were witnessing SpaceX's Starlink satellite project
- He says the phenomenon will be visible again in part of the country tonight
Astute stargazers in Adelaide were last night shocked to spot a series of unidentified flying objects shining brightly in perfect alignment.

Quite true. How can you say it's "unidentified" if you didn't even try to identify it?I never ceased to be amazed by what people think are real UFOs; rocket tests and malfunctions, satellites, etc. Skeptics actually serve a valuable role in debunking many of these sightings.
There are several old articles from the 19th century with stars that suddenly change position, to remains stationary again; scared the bejeebers out of the folks.But if you see something in the night sky that is not identifiable - then that surely is an Unidentified Flying Object.
A person can say, 'oh that...that is a satellite' - until it does a 90 degree turn - then it is a ufo...
If I was a visitor and wanted to blend in, I'd choose a common orbit, and tap into satellite conversations, while perusing the Planet
The majority of The Primitives would be none the wiser.
Another Starlink encounter - sounds eerily beautiful
OH and I headed out earlier this evening to watch what promised to be a good pass of the Starlink train. The satellites were actually five minutes or so behind schedule - we'd pretty much given them up for lost. And then they started coming over. Eerie, sure, but I don't know about beautiful - she and I are both children of the 80s, and we found something deeply unnerving about these things streaking through the skies above us. I'd been thinking just the other day of that bright fireball that created all sorts of panics over the UK a few years ago - from my vantage point on the moors above Oldham, it had appeared to come in a vertical line straight down, and I genuinely flinched, expecting any moment to see a mushroom cloud billowing up. (I still wish I'd paid more attention to the weird lights on the horizon off to my right, that were drifting slowly and horizontally...)Another Starlink encounter - sounds eerily beautiful
