Looking up at a clear night sky, you can see stars, planets, planes, satellites and the occasional comet. But what are the ones that move across the sky in an irregular fashion? Not going in a straight line, sometimes making obvious turns and maybe changing speed.
They look like any other, regular blip on the canvas that is the night sky: just a bright, white dot. But they behave like they do not belong. I mean, I don’t think satellites can wiggle/zigzag/change trajectories and slow down, then speed back up? Right? Planes are obvious. These are not planes. What are they? You can see them everyday, if you have a clear sky and 30minutes to just stare into the oblivion. They’re clearly abundant, regular occurense, but I have no idea of a technology (that we possess) that can do that in the vacuum of space or better yet, in the gravitational pull of our planet. Satellites are moving (falling) in a constant straight line. They don’t break out of it.
Have you seen these? What do we make of it?
