Hey thanks for the video! Cool to see that you can capture all those colors from a star. The night of Jan 28th I saw something in the sky that was like nothing I have ever seen before. It was flashing vibrant colors, about the size of a star, but no star in the sky was shining like it to the naked eye or through binoculars. Found your video looking for answers but I still dont know what to think. As you say - more questions than answers! ha!
I saw that same star, biggest one in the sky low on the horizon, i watched it all night at the lake....Is there not an official scientific explanation for it yet?
I thought these were stars too until I actually seen 3 at my moms house 10 min from me catskill ny and they were above a open feild still light out from the evening and they were hovering together at low altitudes and then I watched as one stayed where it was and one went west and the other south and found new spots and just sat there blinking. SO now being they are in the same spots every night I think they are government spy drones..
@tempeyn Wow!!! I knew that something was "rotten in Denmark". Personally, I don't think they're stars. I even suspect that some "stars" that we see every night in the same postion, aren't "stars" at all. "Any highly advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic". {Arthur C. Clark}
@tempeyn BINGO.Of course they are spy satellites. I believe that this one emits a reference signal so the electronics of other satellites can decipher small electrical changes. We will see in the future. By the way. Take a look at DARPA Artificial Telepathy. This may be a satellite that makes it work.
I am an amateur astronomer. I have been watching the skys for over 15 years and have never seen anything like this until 2008, i have seen it in texas as well as Illinois where I am from. this is not normal! i have no clue what it is but can tell you from experience it is not a star or a normal satellite
HI IM IN NEW ZEALAND ITS 1 30 IN MRING IM OUT SIDE THER 14 STARS FLASHING RED GREEN I THINK I NO W IT IS ITS RELLY BAD THER BIG STAR ITS GONE SUPER NOVER LITE HAS ALL REDY HIT US BUT NOT THE GAMER RAY RAYES WILL HIT 2012 IT WILL BE FAST FLASHING WE SEE NOW IS GAMER RAYS HITING UTHER STARS WHEN U SEE ALL MOST ALL STARS DONING THIS ITS TIME 2 GET 2 UR BUNKERS I DONT NO 4 SURE BUT MAKES SENES MR AND MR ERY NITE ARE FLASHING
@MegaRavans Hi, Mega. Your explanation may be correct. And the Gamma Rays hitting Eacrth in 2012 is frightenting, too. I hope you're wrong about this! Its that time of year here in the southern USA. I can see the same star at night. It's light show is beautiful! Have a great day.
Antares is in the scorpion constellation. Antares is appearing to change colors. Antares has a companion star that appears blue or green when you can see it. Antares is red and orange. Perhaps both these stars combined are giving this color changing affect. Wonder if these stars are both viewable at certain times. They orbit one another so maybe at times we may see both of them. Perhaps the lesser star moves in front of the Red Giant causing the color to change. May be a truly rare event.
@circlevilleman Your theory is as good a theory as any. Every star that I zoomed in on with my digicam flashed different colors. I suspect that either its a camera defect, or it can "see" in a light spectrum that the unaided human eye can't. Scientific theories say that it's nothing more than atmopheric pollution. I don't subscribe to that theory. If this is the cause, then shouldn't all nearby stars flash colors that can be seen with the unaided eye? All stars twinkle, but not all flash colors!
@MoreQuestionsToo Very good point. I got some footage of one of these in Aug this year (2011) and I was amazed and at a loss to explain it. It appears that there are more and more of these all the time. I wish someone that has like a Phd in this stuff to come forth and tell us what it is. It is a new phenomena that has only been happening for the last few years. I never saw these when I was a kid and neither did my father or grandfather. What is going on?
@chefjimmie1 I couldn't begin to explain what's going on. I have more questions than answers. I was told that it is atmoshperic pollution that causes the stars to appear to flash colors. But I'm not at all sold on this explanation. Just doesn't add up. Maybe we are seeing the beginning of the end of these stars. Though we may not live long enough to see them go Supernova! Would be way cool, though. Just a theory.
a saw a star changing colors in sequence like that at the lake.....with my naked eye and it was bigger and brighter then that one.........low on the horizon.....and the colors switched from one to another just a bit slower......it was amazing
@MyUsagirl Yes. Its a spectacular sight. I was watching this star again a few nights ago while I was watching Jupiter. I tried to get cloud details and see it's (Jupiter) 4 visible moons, but my digicam is a far cry from a telescope! LOL! It is very bright in the southern sky right now. Zoomed in, it was just a fuzzy white circle and I could barely see 1 moon.
It's a nova. Only, it happened a while ago. Because that star is far away. I believe its 138 Light years away. So you're looking at what happened to it 138 years ago.
@Cutemooshi Great Point. The relation between time & space is mind boggling! I wonder how many stars in the viewable, known universe have already reached supernova. Theoretically, a star that is 50,000 light years away could explode today, and we wouldn't even know it. But the people living 50,000 light years in the future would see it exploding. Totally awesome! The star could be no more right now, but we could still see it today.
Call me wrong, But I think it's a planetary system. When a planet is orbiting a star, the stars wobble and shift colors. Red is closer to earth, and blue is farther away. The two are held together by gravity in the center, between two objects, is a gravitational pull. The gravitational pull is what makes the star wobble. That is probably what it is.
i've and I seen one here in Sardinia, right under Orion a changing color star like this one, it rises at about 23:30 and remains all the night, I'don't know what is it couse you can see it with naked eye ( Very very good seeing and there is no light pollution ) I'm asking someone what is it please answer
Through a good set of binoculars it is a definite shape,- it is a hula-hoop type structure with a bottom-row of greenish lights pulsing around the circumfrence and the center being a more stable row of white lights and then the top being the red pulsating rotating lights about the circumfrence. Space station or Satellite? Why lighted? What airline would hit an orbital structure? Would'nt all be lighted? Why no explainations from science? Are they here...the Fallen-Ones???
This doesnt appear to be a star. It doesnt behave like a star or planet - to the naked eye or zoomed in with a camera. Stars don't flash colors in sequence like that. I've observed stars through telescopes, cameras & videos. This doesnt appear to be a normal phenomenon - whether this was 1 object you filmed or several in a single night. How many planes have you seen in the sky at the same time? It's possible you were filming several diff UFOs in that nights sky..or not. No way to know for sure
@SasoriXSonic The stars in my video appear to be "moving under intelligent control" because I'm zoomed in on them. To the naked eye, these same stars appear stationary.
@hirlrng Someone told me that its just an atmospheric illusion that gives the stars these colors. That the atmosphere behaves like a prizm. They could be right. But one star is clearly visible, flashing multiple colors, easily viewed with the naked eye! I had to zoom in on the other stars to see this flashing display. But every star that I recorded that night flashed these colors.
this is the star Arcturus I have been tracking it for over a year, I have not found any official reason to why it is getting so active but it is a star called Arcturus not Venus , Sirius or any other it is Arcturus
Quite so. If they were truely UFO's I'd ask you to send a copy of the films to the "INSTITUTE", however, they are, just stars. The motion can be attributed to the dynamic densities of our atmosphere and the resultant directional changes of the 'starlight' as it passes through. Similar to the effect you see when shining a light through choppy pond water, the beam moves around the bottom even though you are not moving it. The changing colors are also caused by atmospheric distortion.
Glad that someone else has seen this!! My friend and I have seen it many times. He lives out in the middle of nowhere, so we get a perfect view of it. I just really want to know what it is!
I see this amost every night and thought it odd as it flashes in color . it is in the same place every night I saw it also last night and it is always to the west. My brother told me it was a satelite and the reason it goes away is a cloud may pass in front of it and you dont see the cloud at night. it is odd to see
I see a star or something like this I first saw it two nights ago and it flashes non stop! It is hard to record but it looks closer or bigger then most stars...what is it? I live in USA, Massachusetts.
I believe its a star. I don't know what type, though. I looked at several stars. Even the ones that appear to be solid colors & not flash. They ALL display the same "flashing colors" pattern when viewed through my HD cam (zoomed in). I was amazed. I never would have suspected such behavior. Cameras can "SEE" in light spectrums that the human eye can not.
the US as in Europe. That would mean it would have to far away as the stars, right? But then that didn't explain why we saw it so close as a small commuters plane. And until last night I never thought about looking for this on YT to see if anyone has saw the same thing...but after showing my friend "Cosmic Cops" lights...like the name (somewhereone);-) And during the past two years it was only 1 light that I was able to see until I saw your video. Now you can actually see more of them. Thnx!
You're quite welcome. And thank you for watching & your pleasant comment. You wouldn't believe some of the things I see in the night sky. I can hardly believe it myself. Its so difficult to record these objects. There's definitely something strange going on in the skies all over the world. The problem is people are too busy making a living & NEVER find quality time to observe the sky. This is why so many people never see such strange phenomena. Hence, they only believe in what they can see.
I have been watching since 2007, here in the Netherlands. A friend and I was walking home and saw this object moving. Of course the first thing we thought it was a plane, because it was close as small plane. But then it started moving away further and further...until it stopped moving, but continue blinking. I thought maybe a satellite...until visited my hope in the US, and one of my brothers pointed to the same "Star, Satellite etc" and then I thought how strange to see the same satellite in
I've known about the most common "so-called" flashing star for around 15 years. But never have I seen it so clearly until this year. I've also seen "balls of light" in one postion, for several minutes, slowly move, then disappear before my eyes. They're not "airplanes" of any type, meteorites, or satellites. These KNOWN objects don't stop, and then shoot out into space in one second. I just want to know what they are. Secret military aircraft? Whoever knows is not saying!
John Lear said that they aren't stars at all. He said that they're "Alien Moon Bases", placed there to observe our species. Kind of like "Cosmic Cops" or "Cop Planes". The only problem with this is that I recorded 5 more just like the one everybody sees. Every so-called star that I observed changes colors! WOW!
"Cop Planes" is a good name, too. The most visible one out here is in the northeastern sky. One doesn't even need a camera to see it flashing colors. Strange, though. I never noticed it so clearly until this year. I wonder if its getting closer?
I later discovered that the wobbling was caused by my just being on the deck. I was sitting as still as possible. Heavy tripods & solid foundations are best for recording.
That's a great name for them. Every star that I record with my HD cam shows the same effect. The camera can obviously "see" in a light range that the human eye can't. I was dumbfounded when I realized this. What I wan't to know is....."Why were we never taught this in school, or informed by NASA"! Thanks for watching and your polite comment.
I have been watching the night sky for many months now. I call these "Cosmic Cops" due to their color and cyclic flash. I do not recall seeing this happen with such clarity in the past. I am in an area of very heavy light pollution and this is viewable with the naked eye, easily!!!
