UFO's or Drones ? whats going on ?

[The Cobra]

Recent reports of drone sightings in New Jersey and other areas have caught my attention. Witnesses describe drones flying in coordinated patterns for hours at night, sometimes with lights off and evading typical detection methods like heat sensors. Authorities haven’t been able to identify the operators or their origin, leaving plenty of room for speculation.

Some explanations point to possible misidentifications, suggesting that many of these “drones” might actually be manned aircraft or hobbyist drones. But others believe there could be something more mysterious at play, with theories ranging from espionage by foreign nations like China to experimental military technology or even extraterrestrial involvement. Officials have largely dismissed these claims, though they’ve acknowledged the need for better monitoring and transparency.

It’s hard to ignore how unusual this situation is. Why are so many sightings going unexplained? Are we dealing with advanced technology, or is this just a case of overactive imaginations?

 

What do you think is going on here?

Occam’s razor, deduce to the obvious. The flying objects are searching for something. Drones have no purpose to fly in the dark unless they are looking for a person or something. Can definitely rule out foreign adversaries. Possibly a nuclear device and the delayed reaction of the current administration is in panic mode.

Google John Ferguson of Saxon Aerospace.  So far, I'm only finding it on "unapproved sources".  He acknowledges that it's just an educated guess on his part... 

 

If he's right, the gub'ment is flying them at night and not acknowledging their actions, to avoid panicking the public.

That sounds about right

But large numbers of similar drones are also being seen, at night, over UK locations, specifically the US air force base at Mildenhall.

That's a little more relaxed in this section.

Why only at night ? I have not yet seen a report of these things operating in the daytime  ?

Hard to believe, with all the sophisticated equipment and manpower the US forces and intelligence services possess......that they have no clue what these 'drones' are.......very odd.

Thanks for the heads up, but I'd prefer to allow anyone interested to do their own Googling.  Since it's blocked here where I'm staying, they may find more than I have found using Bing.

 

To be clear, I'm a big fan of the wingnut conspiracy genre, but I haven't formed an opinion on Ferguson's "educated guess".  But it's the most plausible one that I've found so far.

Because they might be more easily identified in the day time?

 

Because they can't (easily) see what they want to see in daylight?

 

So as not to scare people? I rate this a low possibility since they are just as easily seen at night.

"What do you think is going on here?"

 

The airborne equivalent of illegal raves or Thai MC street meets, swiftly followed by the media and netizen hysteria that the participating delinquents sought to achieve....... "cool".

 

Idiots + toys + anxiety purveyors/junkies

I don't think people realize what you can do with drones these days, certainly a lot of sightings are down to this sort of thing
