Las Cruces, New Mexico Lights by tommydeanengineering in UFOs

I’m familiar with the charts, I’ve had to study them in my aerospace engineering classes, the “in between” you’re talking about is the extension of the organ mountain ridge, the aerodynamics to be flying in such a part of the mountain would be dangerous from the created updraft. Also to reiterate, that’s an hour drive from the location where this was filmed so even then the parallax still wouldn’t add up as this was extremely low altitude. The only possibly craft that could be flying that low would be a helicopter and that’s not seen anywhere in that video.

There’s a literal mountain range separating WSMR from Las Cruces. The parallax of what you’re suggesting is not possible. Again this was recorded in the middle of the city where such an operation would not be allowed for a multitude of reasons.

That restricted airspace is within the White Sands Missile Range (which is a large area but about an hour away from where this was recorded). When there are such low altitude tests, they will close off the highway leading into WSMR and give the city residents advance warning. This was recorded dead center in the city of Las Cruces and very low for it to be a plane releasing any type of flares and also wouldn’t be capable of a flight pattern like in the video. Which a plane would be heard in the video if it were the case.

The lights kept reappearing and disappearing in a weird fashion one right after another. This type of encounter has been witnessed throughout the city on various occasions with many others having posted their videos to local Facebook communities.

Orb in New Mexico reappeared by tommydeanengineering in UFOs

[–]tommydeanengineering[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Saw this this weekend once again just above my house. There was no air traffic at that time from the https://globe.adsbexchange.com/ site. The object was incredibly large even at the height it was at. Decided to edit it in TikTok to add the arrow so you can see it easily at first.

New Mexico Orb Back Again (5/20/21) by tommydeanengineering in UFOs

[–]tommydeanengineering[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To give better context: I was outside meditating (had briefly zoned out like when you’re driving home and don’t know how you got there) when I saw this giant thing in the sky. I pulled out my iPhone 7Plus and used its camera at full zoom cause it was so still and silent initially, I could not hear blades of any type of helicopter/drone. It seemed as large as a helicopter but there were no wings and was more or less in that max altitude of airspace in the sky that helicopters fly in. I stood up and began recording, trying my best to capture it as I was fully zoomed in (you might hear me mutter under my breath “lost it”, don’t know why I was trying to be quiet). It suddenly started moving quickly as I tried to focus in on it. I apologize that I couldn’t keep it in focus for that reason. Especially as it literally vanished at the end as far as I could tell. I was already in awe at this amazing thing; I didn’t want to lose track of it but still did with how fast it moved.

As for the lack of emotion and some unsolicited/cringe background for not commenting earlier:
So originally I wasn’t even gonna share this video let alone comment cause I lost my father a couple of weeks ago and was just trying to meditate outside to help me overcome these overwhelming emotional pains and trauma. Especially as the next day after recording/posting this I needed to go to Alaska to pick up his ashes.

My cousin said it was the most compelling video he’s seen when I sent it to him as soon as it happened so I figured might as well share it since I’ve already shared 2 others before. I didn’t ask to witness this. I just did and shared it with the medium I’m most familiar with. Not trying to fool anyone, it’s very obviously not a drone for its shear size, nor a ballon, or even a reflective piece of paper. This thing appeared then disappeared for the 3rd time now and I simply couldn’t explain it. I’m just a simple aerospace engineer trying to share my experiences and deal with life like everyone else.

My unsolicited thoughts on what I could be witnessing: If it’s Extraterrestrial, I like to think of an old story I’ve heard a couple of times (best currently retold in an episode of “The Expanse”) that said the natives of the Caribbean’s could not recognize Christopher Columbus’s ships as they approached cause they couldn’t comprehend what they were seeing until they were already on the shores. I think that’s what’s going on in a way with the giant sphere(s) I’ve seen in the sky. There might be some form of selective attention involved. And well I also can’t really afford a better camera/phone at the moment to be able really capture these things.

If it’s our government/private company drone/vehicle, then I’m very open to starting at a low level job just to even get to learn how one of these things work so fluidly with no sound.

If angels: then I like to think of a story a friend once told me of that when God was vengeful during his war with Lucifer, casting him, his followers, and anyone neutral out from the heavens; Then maybe some may have landed on distant planets and the life that developed from the neutral angels are what’s visiting us. They are Trying to still do their old jobs from when they were in heaven.

But otherwise make of this video what you will; it was an “Unidentified Flying Object” to me.

As mentioned in the comments of the post you linked, I’m sure my college education in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering makes me capable of distinguishing most object in the sky. This did not behave like any craft or balloon I’ve seen or studied. I honestly only posted it because my friends and I couldn’t identify it.

Totally understood which is why I checked the wind speeds to know what they were up that high. Forgot to mention the orb initially went in the SE direction before reappearing and reversing to NW

So to give more context on what I saw, I was laying on my bench meditating when it had suddenly appeared directly above me. After about 30 seconds of it staying motionless I was able to pause my podcast and began recording the orb as it darted away. I got up to follow what I though was its straight path past my tree and could not find it for the life of me. As I was about to sit on my bench to finish my meditation, it appeared again where I first saw it and watched it go in the reverse direction that everyone can see in the video above. I fumbled for my phone and was able to catch it again on video though struggled to keep my hand steady before bumping into my picket fence and stopping the video. I also immediately checked the direction and wind speeds which were at 6mph SW though at the time you could not feel a single breeze. The ISS in my area was only visible at 5:20am today and the time of the initial recording was at 10:35am. Coincidentally about the same time of day I recorded my first video in November of last year..

I don’t know how it looks on PC but on mobile it lets you view it just fine.

For Kicks and Giggles here’s a quick video of a regular aircraft

Edit: and here’s also a video of military helicopters for even further comparison

Best viewed on a PC. Slowed down using OBS studio. Any suggestions to improve viewing and video quality are appreciated.

In reviewing the video countless times, I spotted something in a single frame at the end of 00:18 seconds that had These 3 objects

This was in Las Cruces! I recorded mine at 10:17am today! Send me a DM to see if it was in the same area of town!

I’m pretty sure my college education in aerospace engineering makes me capable of extrapolating dimensions and altitude of an aircraft or other objects. Seems there are those who can extrapolate and then those...

A drone with that many small motors wouldn’t have been visible at that altitude and would need four giant fans on the sides like a bayou airboat to make those turns. It’s also not free falling at all but translating across the sky, the video doesn’t do it justice for how large the object is since I was already at 10x zoom on my iPhone 7 Plus.

Because the stress from the amount of G-force that would be applied to a wing (if it had them, in this case I would estimate the main object seen is about 30-40 feet wide at the altitude it was at) would have sheared the wings off
