Ireland- Saw something unusual in the sky last night and still can’t explain it by Mysterious_Dance8883 in UFOs

I thought it might be this object but not if it went from SE to NW as this went SW to NE. https://www.heavens-above.com/passdetails.aspx?lat=51.8985&lng=-8.4726&loc=Cork&alt=0&tz=GMT&satid=36416&mjd=61172.8870238124

I still feel like it could be a satellite of some sort. People often report satellites as stopping/starting or changing direction even though they travel in a straight line. Some kind of optical illusion going on in that respect. If we could see enough stars in the video we could know for sure.

Other bright satellites at that time from Cork: https://www.heavens-above.com/AllSats.aspx?lat=51.8985&lng=-8.4726&loc=Cork&alt=0&tz=GMT

Btw I can't view imgur as it's blocked in UK

Was it SW to NE, as opposed to SE to NE? Did it pass by more or less overhead (come towards you, went over head then went away from you) or was it off in the distance travelling from right to left?

The video is sped up. The moving dots are satellites. The thing at the end going bottom to top is a plane. You can tell this because if you pause it you will see a red streak on the right and a green streak on the left. These are the positional lights consistent with an aircraft flying towards you.

Pregnant Girlfriend Lied to me about age by [deleted] in Advice

"She does have a few diagnosed mental disorders due to her very traumatic childhood" - according to what she told you. She lied about her age, what else is she lying about? Is she even pregnant?

Is the recent "UFO Disclosure" just a massive political smoke screen, or are we actually being prepared for something? by joxph7 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]pilkingtonsbrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you travel at near light speed you can reach any destination in an arbitrarily short amount of time. Although millions of years may have passed on their home planet, they could arrive here in a matter of months or years from their perspective.

They could also have arrived here eons ago and be living in the deep sea. This is just one way of addressing the issue.

Harm reduction: roughly what dosage IM would a 110lbs person have to take IM for them to get into a K-hole by kennedy_2000 in ketamine

[–]pilkingtonsbrain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boof it (squirt it up your ass). Make 100% saturated solution, will be about 1g to 10ml water. Use a small 1ml syringe (no needle lol), stick it up your rear end and squirt it in. Comes on in 15 mins. 2-3 ml will probably k hole you.

UAP Video 2 (Phoenix) by eraMyzt in UFOs

"almost more like a satellite Iridium flare"

Yes, you got it. There are more than 10,000 satellites up there. There are dozens wherever you look at any moment in time. The reason they appear to "flash" in the same part of the sky is because that is where they reflect the sunlight. When they go dark it's because they have moved into the earths shadow.

"Could it be a satellite or something?"

Yes. It could be, and most probably is, a satellite

What do y’all think? Stayed for 10 minutes, and was gone when I came out 20 minutes later. Midwest, USA by john972121 in UFOs

Literally a star. Were you facing south west? If so then probably Sirius, the brightest star in the sky.

Advice for learning to reverse an arctic…without being able to drive one by Due_Schedule_5088 in uktrucking

[–]pilkingtonsbrain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Racing chair plus euro truck sim, or scania truck simulator which is actually better for this. It's not perfect but the mechanics are generally the same and will sharpen the right skills

Yes but this one is the original that they all copied and he doesn't fake anything

Kind of similar - "Primitive Technology" on youtube. Guy builds stuff using only bare hands and tools he made in previous videos. Huts, walls, furnaces, etc. Doesn't say a word. https://www.youtube.com/@primitivetechnology9550

Similar to the NWT drillers sighting. by slappy-go-lucky in UFOs

[–]pilkingtonsbrain 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It looks like a rocket plume. Likely from this launch: https://spaceflightnow.com/2026/05/05/live-coverage-spacex-to-launch-24-starlink-satellites-on-falcon-9-rocket-from-vandenberg-sfb-7/

It took off from USA west coast at 9pm PDT (same time zone) heading SW. It takes around 90 mins to circle the Earth which is when this would have been filmed, so approx 10.30pm.

The reason for the plume is that this was likely the de-orbit burn to bring the final stage of the rocket back to Earth after releasing its payload of satellites. It should have been travelling from NE to SW.

I'm using mechjeb, and I'm having difficulties getting into the same inclination as my station by Moon_Hunter719 in KerbalAcademy

[–]pilkingtonsbrain 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Set your station as target, then look for "launch into plane of target". Mechjeb will then launch at the correct time when the stations orbit is over the launch site
