A civil plane (Canadair?) casually pass thru the telescope cone view during a Moon observation session. Tech: 01 oct 2006 - N 44,25' - E 12,20' (Ravenna, Italy) - MTO 1000 + CCD b/w autoassembled ocular rec.on PAL VHS, then digitized 25fps at 352x288px. Note: No big airport in a 100 km range! Strange motion angle...

  • Good catch. It is a McDonnell Douglas DC-9 or McDonnell Douglas MD-80. Search for those names on the web for details.

  • @TE3EJ  - Thank you, man! I'll google it. :)

  • Ok, question..how come we can see the light on the moon (white obviously) but not the one on the airplane? I'm not trying to counter what your showing, I'm simply just curious and interested in knowing.

  • @slickywicked

    Due to a simple "backlight" effect. This is a night vision, and te camera was set to high luminosity of the moon. The plane appear at lower luminosity, remember: is dark at nigh, and the plane is not a shuttle or a space station.

  • So to speak: this is a REAL video of an airplane casually crossed the range of observation during one of the thousand session that my father record on VHS. It's not a FAKE and we know it's not a UFO.

    If this video make you laught, i'm happy for this and for you. But for astronomy lovers, this is a lucky shoot and an interesting "rarity". So my father ask me to publicate the clip over the net, and that's the spirit of YouTube community. Isn't it?

  • I believe this was flight 94 from Northwest Airlines heading to New York Airport.

  • @yuriogy1 - thanks man... it's a hard work ;) i'm exausted... LOL

  • @alissabandaly the moon is a quarter million miles away.

    the plane is probably 1 mile away. of course the plane will be big.

  • look how big is the airplane shadow the moon is much bigger than this and the airplane's shadow should be much much smaller than that .( FAKE)

  • @slickywicked To be clear, the moon is far far far away and the suns rays are still hitting it.

    The plane is at what. maybe 30,000 feet? its in the shade.. i.e. the earth is between the plane and the moon therefore it is dark and would appear dark again the bright disc of the moon.

    I to have seen several planes fly by the moon whilst viewing with a telescope but unfortunately never had my camera fitted at the time.

  • Could be one of those fake plane ufos that spray chemtrails everywhere.  I'm just sayin'
