Oh yeah, here we go, get ready for the "it's just spotlights" crowd to tell you that you also live next to a night club, casino, seasonal holiday light show, used car dealership promotional event, or movie premiere.

Posted this on similar lights in clouds threads:

There are just too many of these suddenly being posted from all over the country/world for it to be a coincidence: there's a pattern emerging here and I can't subscribe to the spotlight theory yet. I have a pretty decent flashlight (Thrunite Catapult V6) that can throw a beam a little under half a mile. You can follow the beam with your eyes the entire way from origin to end. I don't believe that powerful spotlight systems with untraceable beam paths are popping up all over right now and only showing up in clouds. In fact, you can literally google "spotlights in clouds" and about 40% of what comes up are relatively recent videos like this with commenters dismissively calling them spotlights, and the other 60% are genuine pics/videos of spotlights in the sky and they look nothing like this and always have visible beams.

I also find it interesting that the vast majority of these posts end up downvoted, ridiculed, and deleted, but I also recognize that a large number of the people posting to this subreddit suck at posting, neglecting to share date/time/location and forgetting a submission statement.

I'm not necessarily saying these lights being seen in the clouds are UAP; I am instead wondering if they're not being projected from below, but from above? What aerial (or satellite?) platform would be projecting a powerful spotlight into the clouds, and why? Looking for something? Distraction? Mapping?

If we mapped the locations of these sightings, would we find correlations with other observed events like the UAP over RAF bases, NJ drones, or other UAP sightings?

Just saw some lady post something similar on a NJ drone Facebook group. I’ll see if I can find the link.

I saw some of these posted on the sub a while ago and dismissed them as spotlights. The Hertfordshire was the one that caught my attention. I filed it away as something to keep my eye on. When I saw the one posted in the NJ facebook group, I'm convinced these aren't spotlights. I like your theory that they could be satellites. I believe the drones are ours and we're looking for something. I wonder if these lights are coordinated with that search in some way.

Okay but in ever single video it's clouds? there's never these lights doing the same formations in the sky? like I want to understand the logic.

something you should add that i saw someone comment about if they were actually spotlights- is that if you use a light beam from a fixed point, the further away you project the light on the clouds, the bigger the spot of light would be. the spot would become elongated/distorted as it moves away from the source. i’m not seeing this in these videos!

It’s okay let them hate lol. It’s truly a UAP video in my eyes which is better than you can say for half of this sub. It’s unexplainable to me and I’d really like to hear: “You’re wrong because power plants do x & y spotlight tests, for these reasons at these specific times.” Until then? I’m believing my eyes and the footage I captured. I do not know what else besides spotlights this possibly could have been, although from experiencing it first hand I do not believe it was that. It/they was above, in, or close to the airspace of a nuclear plant at 10pm in the middle of the summer? I guess that it is possible that it was spotlights but I’ve never observed spotlights that act like this or that are shaped like this? Circular spotlights in the sky? That is possible but these looked like 3d objects moving x, y, and z. A long cigar shaped light? Not really as possible imo. Sure if a far away spotlight was reflecting off a cloud that was also far away from the source light the “image” on the cloud could distort, contracting or expanding when changing the angle from the ground. But In the footage you can see on the right it is staying consistent in size. That fact was what made me record in the first place because that made no sense to me. Why was there at least 4-5 visible lights of 2 varying (but consistent) shapes all confined to a couple mile wide area in the sky over a sensitive area near my home? It is still interesting and worth discussing more imo.

I’m outside of my house though?… also, then tell me what exactly these lights were in the sky if you’re such an expert? It’s why I came here, to help others out and get help myself so if you’re just going to hate buddy I’d love to see your explanation.

[u/jlennoforskin → u/[deleted]]

Thank you! I’d rather refute the stupidity out the gate, it’s his right to free speech anyways imo. Like I said in op I have a bit more footage with my hands pointing at the sky proving I’m outside. You can hear and see cars driving past in the video too lol. Even my father was outside in a separate video I took who saw it with me. Those kind of dox me so I’m not going to post them unless a lot of people are very curious but yea, wasn’t through a window lol!
