UFO ~ ORB over Charlotte, NC ?

[EXETER]

For this thing to have a "circumfrance" to you or the camera would mean it was facing the camera. That makes no real sense, and with all the photomanipulation and enlargement, it creates artefacts that can be mistaken for elements that aren't there due to pixelation.

I've done this many times before too, so my conclusion would be a balloon or group of balloons tied tightly in a bunch. It moves quickly because there is a strong wind which is evident from the trees moving.

Thanks for sharing and keep at it.

According to the weather records, the wind in Charlotte on April 13 was around 6MPH during the day.  
that's roughly the speed of a fast walk.

Also, the object is not rising as it moves along horizontally.  Balloons will rise steadily until one of two things happen.  One, the balloon envelope will continue to expand until it bursts.  This is called a constant-pressure balloon and is what weather balloons, for instance, do.  Two, the balloon rises but the envelope does not expand, so it will rise until the weight of the balloon equals the weight of the air it displaces and then it will stay at a constant altitude. This is called a constant-volume balloon.  A good example of this is the mylar balloon that is often seen at birthday parties, etc.  Those balloons usually reach a constant float altitude of between 3000 to 5000 ft. 

Not a balloon.

I don't do "because I said so".

I do possibilities and maybes and perhaps.

It's called critical thinking, especially when someone thinks they cannot be wrong.

And I have nothing to prove to anyone but myself.

Good luck with your one perspective.

Critical Thinking? 

All I asked for was meat and potatoes and you provide squat, never answered the questions and bailed.

Please refer to my earlier posts and consider the opinions given without the unnecessary conflict.

We're here together so please try to get on and be more open to other possibilities beyond your own.

Cheers.

OK, lets toss the Charlotte whatever. Based on what I have witnessed there are UFO's zipping around. Some are man made by reverse engineering ET craft. Then there are the others as in ET. Lets discuss the pulsating - flashing orange ones, as seen all over the world and dating back to the late 1800's. I and others have seen them here in South Carolina, USA.

I bought the following book as authored by a former US Military Fighter Pilot turned Lawyer. I believe in what he wrote along with the timeline:

https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Story-Wo...1620064472

Terry Ray is a certified Field Investigator for the Mutual Unidentified Flying Object Network, known as MUFON. He is a former military pilot and trial lawyer, retired law professor emeritus, and a novelist for Sunbury Press.

On the evening of July 29, 2013 in Ocean City Maryland, Terry witnessed eight large orange orbs flying very low and silently along the beach. They performed maneuvers that no Earth-made aircraft could possibly perform, in complete silence.Terry filed a report of his sighting with MUFON. When he met with his fellow MUFON investigators and related his story, he was met with laughter and told that what he saw was nothing more than candle-lit Chinese lanterns.

"As a former military pilot, Terry knew this explanation could not be true and set about to find out what it was he actually saw that night. This led to a year-long, intensive investigation and, ultimately, to the writing of this book. In this book, Terry details the stunning story of the orange orbs that is going on all over the world at this very moment and to a discovery of what could be the biggest event in the history of the human race."The Complete Story of the Worldwide Invasion of the Orange Orbs" breaks entirely new ground in UFO research and could be the most important book in this field since Erich von Daniken’s, 1968, "Chariots of the Gods.""

Why does everybody has a book to sell?

Seems dodge for me also. Heard MUFON gave Chris Bledsoe a hard time.

Because they know that someone somewhere will always buy it.
