+RonC Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Also see it in full screen, looks like an aircraft but I see no lights? US do fly without lights on special ops, I know that but in the middle of the UK ??? Strange! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawson Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Plane or satellite What was the duration of the video footage? What was the exposure time per frame? JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catman161 Posted January 25, 2014 Author Share Posted January 25, 2014 Not a plane I left it running much longer and caught a couple of planes and the lights were very bright and obvious. I think it's a satellite...or aliens @james, I'll hve a look at the settings file on my laptop tomorrow when I turn it back on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawson Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 You could work out how much arc distance it is covering per unit time. But not knowing its altitude working out its speed might be tricky. JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest foundaplanet Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Maybe it was Hung il Gong on the way back from his quick trip to the Sun, it looks red and in the time it took him he'd still be cooling down.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
