(this one is especially good... I don't know who could possibly argue that the UFO doesn't quickly change direction and that something shoots at it and misses.. unless that's not what is in the video at all. but then wtf is?)

It has to be Chinese tech, or they would have shot it down.

Well it is in Chinese air space...
So either its an illusion caused by unclean air and spotlights
OR UFOs run off of pollution!

1- It flies
2- I don't know what it is, therefore it's a UFO (to me)
3- Clearly it's aliens
4- Start cult
5- Profit

(PS: Never mind the "Unidentified Flying Object" part)

I agree. We all know that pictures of Big foot, Loch Ness and Aliens are supposed to be blurry and incapable of being made out.

Must be fake.

Indeed the first few photos looked like it was being projected. Overall the whole thing is fake. Sorry for those who got their hopes up and posted this on their facebooks asap.

However if it was a projection than how was it picked up on radar? Or do radars work differently then how I imagine

EDIT: Wait I'm an idiot there was no mention of a radar in OP and yes from the video it does look like a projection

Don't you guys see what's going on?

-A UFO (could be anything) pops on chinese radars (provided the source is good)
-We get photos that could easily be photoshops or whatever, 0 video footage... If it were real, you would have hours of video footage from every angle.

It's likely that there was a "UFO" (aka, unexpected plane or something like that), and then people made up some pictures.

ok so this is obviously gonna turn into a debate of whether aliens are real or not and then it will eventually degrade into a debate on religion

if that's light being put out, light would be expanding from the source, not condensing.

I was thinking this same thing

and before I get all excited, here are some possibilities:

-it was meant to be seen
-it wasn't meant to be seen but couldn't be helped

meant to:
chinese gov't
some other gov't
some other organization
extraterrestrial, or unknown terrestrial lifeform

wasn't meant to:
same list as above

what makes all the difference is what that was and why it was there. unless these things are definitively put to the general public's knowledge those awesome lights in the sky are only fancy lights in the sky

I know aliens are there and I wish their knowledge would be put to the public

actually it looks like it was travelling in one direction, then changed up and away from the camera

China needs more astronomers so the government released that aircraft in order to get people interested in the subject. My best guess.

Can you explain what's going on in the first video? I'm too lazy to watch the entire 6 minute of it and skimming through it is not helping me understand

. Thanks for the videos though! Very interesting.

OP's pictures look fake lol. However, does anyone know where I can find that 40 min long video taken by the Purple Mountain Astronomical Observatory people took?

Looks obvious to me that its a weather controlling device. Pretty aurora effects.
Maybe it's related with all the anti-missile tech china was all into earlier.
That huge puff when it speeds up or whatever is friggin awesome. Pwwooooooof

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry, and that's extra scary to me. There's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside. Run, he's fuzzy, get out of here. /Mitch Hedberg
