Three weeks ago I posted video footage of a strange object that appeared in the skies over Maryland. Yesterday, the witness provided more information about the sighting that seemingly rules out one possible explanation for the unexplained light in the sky. Another commenter had posited that the light may be a satellite that was reflecting the sun as it crossed the, but the new information seems to rule that out. According to the witness, who identified himself as Carlos, the first time he saw the object it was so bright that it caught his attention from the corner of his eye and then very quickly sped across the sky. The second time it appeared, he said it seemed to lazily float across the sky only to enter a cloud bank and not emerge. Based on the different speeds the object was seen traveling at and it’s apparent ability to hover (or at least change direction), the chance that what ever Carlos filmed was a satellite seems slim. While eliminating one possible explanation is helpful, this new information only seems to further deepen the mystery surrounding the sighting.

Unexplained Light Appears Over Maryland – UPDATED

UPDATED While out filming contrails/chemtrails Youtube user Breakz23 captured this footage of a strange light that he spotted in the sky over Maryland. According to the video description the light appeared a total of three times (though the he was unable to capture the first two appearances). Despite being filmed on April 1st, this video appears to be a legitimate sighting of… something. According to the witness, this light is not a plane or a helicopter and appeared much brighter than any other object in the sky. From the video, it appears to either be hovering away slowly or at a very high altitude (which given its apparent size in the video would make it enormous). What do you think this strange light that appeared over Maryland is? Share your theories in the comments.

UPDATE: According to a comment left below by the witness, the first time he saw the object it was so bright it caught is attention from the corner of his eye. As he turned the object shot off across the sky at an incredible pace, while the second time it appeared it seemed to float slowly into a cloud bank. With this additional information, it would seem to potentially rule out the theory raised by other commenters that the object was in fact a satellite reflecting the sun.
