Looks like a chopper to me
And me.

Well, being sceptical is well founded where UFO's are concerned, when I look at some of the videos, I play them slow - you never know what you might catch... like this one UFO Sighted Over London, England ( June 26, 2021 )I'm always incredibly suspicious of these sorts of things, especially even more so when it's people getting massively over-excited and shouting and repeating themselves, and going back over footage and photo's, over and over again with different bits of software and clicking on bits of the picture and then having quick frame-grabs put on the film etc etc etc.
And mis-pronouncing 'escape' as 'exscape'.
I think that photo would be more at home in the 'optical illusions' thread, looks like a ship on a false horizon

About half way through it I caught this anomaly, leaving the anomaly (the UFO) at an incredible rate of speed and vanishing into thin air - which I thought was pretty interesting!

Arrows pointing to real horizon
Matthew, from Tidmouth, Devon, said: 'I couldn't help but see it.
'My kitchen window gives a great view of the sea so when it came across the horizon.
Not necessarily - could well be a fog, or cloud bank, which is very likely in the evening (as this photo seems to be taken with the light showing in the foreground). Anyway, if that is a false horizon as you suggest, it would have to be a flipping big ship me thinks?I think that photo would be more at home in the 'optical illusions' thread, looks like a ship on a false horizon

I don't think that it could be that - as it was my first thought too 'Ringo!'It may just be a refraction in the camera lens from the street light directly underneath it.

Mainly because when you look at his other photograph, it plainly shows that he has taken the photograph's from the inside of his flat's window... (through his window - with raindrops, or condensation, showing quite plainly on the window pane).
It is all very well just righting this one off as a 'reflection, or refraction of light from within the flat. However, it doesn't make any sense whatsoever with what the witness has defined as the sudden appearance of the object. Quote:
This is either a double reflection of the light directly below it, or a reflection of a light inside the room. If the window is double glazed, the double reflection is likely. It is not in the sky or on the horizon.
I believe this is the report from the other sighting by some Indian Scientists 'Mythopoeika.'OK, this isn't a 'latest' sighting, but I couldn't find anywhere else to park it.
Some people in India describe something they saw in Chandra Taal. They also mention another sighting seen by some Indian scientists.
The witness only observed it for ten seconds, and all the appearances and disappearances were described as happening very fast. So the witness may not have had enough time to identify the source of this phenomenon. Quite often a UAP is described as disappearing into the distance when it has really just faded away or ceased to be visible; if an object simply ceases to be visible, it may appear to have 'zoomed off'.It is all very well just righting this one off as a 'reflection, or refraction of light from within the flat. However, it doesn't make any sense whatsoever with what the witness has defined as the sudden appearance of the object. Quote:
["great view of the sea so when it came across the horizon"]
["UFO hovering - for ten seconds"]
["in seconds the suspect object whizzed off into the distance"]
["it quickly zoomed off at some speed and I couldn't see it anymore"]
I don't believe it's the proper way to go about these reports, to just 'write them off' when it doesn't make any sense with the report that the witness has given - unless we choose to just ignore what witnesses state, and distort everything just because it makes it easier for Fortean to explain it away. If that's how we justify things, then what's the point of examining a photo - when their statements of detail and explanation from the witness themselves are just totally ignored?
That link seems broken to me. Here's a better one.I believe this is the report from the other sighting by some Indian Scientists 'Mythopoeika.'

Well, when I clicked on the website yesterday, I found it quite quickly - now it seems to be missing?Linkee no workee!

I shall try and find it again. . . cheers.
Two of my own websites are labelled Not Secure - it means that they use http:// addresses instead of https:// is all.Works for me but "Not Secure" comes up in address bar along with the url.
That sounds like sods law then?Two of my own websites are labelled Not Secure - it means that they use http:// addresses instead of https:// is all.
EDIT: And on a cheerful note, I decided to change my websites to Secure last night and promptly caused a major coding error rendering one site (and my admin access portal to it) completely unaccessable
Yep. Fixed them all now but still Unsecured.That sounds like sods law then?
This one is classified as 'explained' on the Metabunk forum; it is a series of long-period exposures of an air ambulance.Just came across this interesting set of photos:
That's interesting 'eburacum,' the one thing that jumps out at me from viewing the above photos, is that in one picture there is an absence of light beams to the ground, and in the other - light beams, which is what you would expect to see a search light emitting?This one is classified as 'explained' on the Metabunk forum; it is a series of long-period exposures of an air ambulance.

The row of dots is a strobe light, the continuous strip is formed by the non-blinking lights and searchlights on the helicopter as it moves across the sky.
This image shows a similar helicopter photo from Lille (on the left) showing the effects of a long exposure; the image on the right is from the video in your link.
