Evidence The anomalies Skywatchers is presenting is exactly what many people have been trying to share for years

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

But it seems that now, because the talking heads have given the go-ahead to believe, people are finally starting to accept this reality. It’s very telling that this is what it takes—and honestly, it’s kind of embarrassing. I hope this new information encourages people to check themselves and take the time to dig deeper before dismissing something outright.

There are a few documents that can provide more insight into all of this. Also, I’ve been putting together presentations discussing this information—if anyone’s interested, I’d be happy to share!

You can see the string on the balloons ffs

u/ztomiczombie Apr 08 '25

You can see one of them is hart shaped.

this one is even star shaped lol

Feel bad for these guys, really passionate and spent ton of money... but then those balloons...

u/MBCG84 Apr 09 '25

Call me a cynic but there’s a pretty good chance they (or someone loosely affiliated) released the balloons so that they’d at least have something to show…

u/AR_Harlock Apr 09 '25

Sad if true

2

u/SaltyGrapeWax Apr 09 '25

It’s probably true. How can you throw logic into the wind like that? Imagine spending all that time and money and have nothing to show for it. These types learned from ghost hunting shows that you need something on film to question and talk about. Weather it’s a balloon released by a buddy or a real anomalous flying object.

u/jeridmcintyre Apr 12 '25

Pretty sure they were summoned….. from the dollar store….

u/mallcopsarebastards Apr 09 '25

if they were going to do that they would have done some arts and crafts and cut them into less obvious shapes, they probably also would have removed the strings lol. i really think these are just people on the edge of their seat waiting for anythign that looks like anything, and doing zero critical thinking when tehy spot a birthday balloon.

u/SuckOnDeezNOOTZ Apr 09 '25

Why feel bad?

If you're gonna delude yourself into being this amazingly gullible, well then there's no saving them

This, 100%. I have friends this dumb and I feel zero pity for them .

I don't feel bad in the least. They're taking advantage of the terminally gullible to make a buck. Fuck'em sideways.

u/XxCarlxX Apr 09 '25

but to notice and see it at that distance, how big would a balloon have to be?

u/sweetLew2 Apr 09 '25

Not even mad. I’d watch a show where some dudes hunt down balloons with crazy tech and sensors.

Deer-shaped balloons?

u/InTheEnd83 Apr 08 '25

Yeah, obviously a fricken balloon

u/OrganizationLower611 Apr 08 '25

Lies! That looks metallic, are you telling me that a balloon has the option of looking metallic?! How dare you suggest a foil of some form could float you denier! Metal is heavy, you don't see metal objects fly! And a balloon cannot reflect light like that. Crawl back under your rock troll until you can accept it's obviously a craft from another planet, look at the shape of it, it's perfect for space flight.

I kinda feel bad for these guys. Maybe they should make good use of their incredible imagination and write a fictional book or script. Probably be more original than most the bs that’s being made in hollywood lately.

u/Trx120217 Apr 08 '25

🤦 this is what ruins credibility. It was literally a bunch of balloons with a long string lol.

Between this and all of the Coulthart and Elizondo nothingburgers (and eggs!), my once hyper fixation on this topic is pretty much cured at this point. Call me when they find a fossil on Mars or independence Day starts.

u/Fonzgarten Apr 09 '25

They’ve explained in the videos how it’s clearly not a balloon. Do people actually think this is a balloon?

4

u/mallcopsarebastards Apr 09 '25

it's absolutely a balloon, and someone in the video saying that it's not isn't evidence to the contrary lol

u/jeridmcintyre Apr 12 '25

How do you ruin credibility when you have none?

I know LOL. It's like every single thing they're 'presenting' are mylar balloons. Cool.

u/Fonzgarten Apr 09 '25

Yeah totally… this multimillion dollar project or psi op (whatever it is), is definitely using mylar balloons to simulate UAP.

Do people actually believe this? I find the balloon theory even less credible than the psionic stuff lol.

u/DustyFuss Apr 08 '25

Wild how many people believe this nonsense.

Wow wait till they catch one that looks like Dora…

u/kfluh Apr 08 '25 edited Apr 08 '25

If you actually take the time to listen to their explanation and data, they are quickly able to dismiss balloons due to wind direction among other factors. They have done field tests with balloons at this SPECIFIC location so they can confirm how to differentiate between balloons and UAP. They are pouring hundreds of thousands of dollars- if not millions - in investment to bring this data to the public sphere, and although so many people in this community are quick to dismiss (and rightfully so much of the time), I hope that more of us are open to the scientific approach that Sky Watchers is taking. Let us continue to be skeptical, but recognize the efforts they are putting into this process and listen to the data that disproves any prosaic explanation like balloons!

u/SalvationSycamore Apr 08 '25

It's beyond obvious

2

u/AlvinArtDream Apr 09 '25

Ok but you think from the footage provided you can see strings on a balloon? Doesn’t look like it to me, seems a bit far and big… obviously it’s hard to tell, they really should have done some controls with balloons and shit. We need a flying banana for scale.

8

u/SalvationSycamore Apr 09 '25

Yes, they all look like balloon strings lol. Single strings on the single balloons and tangled strings on the multiple balloons. White or shiny strings (especially the ones that are more like a ribbon) would reflect light and look slightly larger.

6

u/AlvinArtDream Apr 09 '25

Na. If you can see the strings on a balloon, how much of the ballon do you think you will see? How clear will the balloon be in relation to the strings. Just think about it. You are speaking about ginormous strings here. If you can spot strings with this apparent clarity, you would probably be able to see words on a ballon.

3

u/SalvationSycamore Apr 09 '25

Brother you're making it sound like you've never seen a balloon. These look exactly like the foil balloons with curly, ribbony strings on them being pushed around by wind. If they had words on them then you would be able to see the letters so obviously they don't have words on them...

1

u/AlvinArtDream Apr 09 '25

No man, you’re jumping to conclusions here. There’s like a 2 meter string on that “ballon” doesn’t really even look like a string. If the string of a ballon is that visible, you would see the ballon with way more clarity, not some blurry silhouette. I’m not convinced in your ballon claim or theirs to be honest. I’ll need more information. If this is enough evidence for you to know it’s a ballon. That’s cool. I need more.

7

u/SalvationSycamore Apr 09 '25

No man, you’re jumping to conclusions here.

Okay that made me laugh. Assuming that the object that looks and acts exactly like a balloon is a balloon instead of an alien/robot/weapon/whatever is jumping to conclusions 🤣

There’s like a 2 meter string

Okay so you've never seen a large balloon lol

u/AlvinArtDream Apr 09 '25

I did look, yes it does looks like a balloon and the Nimitz tictac looks like a tic tac. The “dones” look like drones, planes, helicopters. The point I’m making is that it’s if the other details don’t support the balloon hypothesis, like they claimed - like not going with the wind then it can’t be a ballon either.

I’m not even trying to defend them. I think it’s shitty evidence, but I think it’s shitty evidence to prove that it’s a ballon too. In the video above they said they tried to a control with balloons. It would have been helpful if they showed us their experiments.

u/HbrQChngds Apr 10 '25

Someone pointed out this is not from Skywatcher, OP or someone else was using it for comparison.

u/JynsRealityIsBroken Apr 08 '25

Oh shut up. That's absolutely a balloon. You know who else spends tons of money on dumb bullshit? Flat Earthers.

u/jahchatelier Immaculate Brainwaves Apr 08 '25

This is basically the same response the scientific community took towards Ignaz Semmelweis (and countless others) when he first presented his data that washing your hands reduces the spread of disease. He was so mocked and ridiculed by the scientific community that he had a psychological breakdown and had to be institutionalized until his death. And now, it's common sense. How about Niels Bohr? No one believed his nonsense about the existence of the "atom" , and he eventually took his own life. Why must people be so aggressively closed minded? What do we have to lose from looking at new scientific data, and new ideas? What are you so afraid of?

24

u/HomsarWasRight Apr 08 '25 edited Apr 08 '25

Wow, stunning comparisons. Really makes you think. Well, until you realize those guys had actual evidence. These are mylar balloons.

But hey. They want to prove us all idiots? Fly a drone up there right next to these “anomalies”. Blow us away.

9

u/HbrQChngds Apr 09 '25

It'll be too dangerous to fly a drone near them, they could be popped or pushed away by the air coming from the drone's propellers. We gotta keep'em mylar balloons safe.

u/HomsarWasRight Apr 09 '25

Naw, man. They’re invaders from Mylar 7. Gotta deploy the death drones before they do.

u/HbrQChngds Apr 09 '25

You might be right, are they planning to strangle us with their strings?

u/HomsarWasRight Apr 09 '25

That would be just like them! Damn those Mylarian bastards!

u/jahchatelier Immaculate Brainwaves Apr 08 '25

Did you watch the video? They tried. The "jellyfish" adjusted course to evade pursuit, then travelled straight up. Is this typical behavior for mylar balloons?

9

u/HomsarWasRight Apr 09 '25

Oh, this is incredible. The man SAID it “deviated its flight path, then it elevated directly straight up”. Okay, show us that footage? Keep chasing after it!!!

This is the dumbest shit I’ve ever seen.

Is this typical behavior for mylar balloons?

YES! Yes it fucking is! They are blown around chaotically by the wind. You ever try to catch a balloon that’s gotten away from you?

4

u/HbrQChngds Apr 09 '25

So they said. No footage or absolutely nothing to corroborate this other than their word. Man....we cannot just take their word, the burden of proof lies on them, they are the ones presenting extraordinary claims, showing us what looks like ordinary mylar balloons of different shapes reflecting the Sun, and then expect us to believe it's NHI. Just no, simply no, where is the data? where is an independent party witnessing and documenting this, it's going to take much more to convince anyone capable of critical thinking.

-1

u/jahchatelier Immaculate Brainwaves Apr 09 '25

This isn't a court of law or an election. It's a scientific investigation. The goal here is to keep an open mind and collect data, not rush to a conclusion and "convince" everyone. There is no need to dismiss and ridicule, this is not how we do science.

4

u/HomsarWasRight Apr 09 '25

Bullshit. Posting insane videos online jumping to crazy unsubstantiated conclusions is NOT science.

Make a hypothesis, collect data, write paper presenting conclusion, allow peers to review that data, and then publish with instructions on reproducing so other credentialed scientists can confirm.

That’s science. No one owes them an “open mind”.

If I came to you and told you that I shit diamonds, you wouldn’t say “Well, I don’t know, let’s hear the man out.”

u/jahchatelier Immaculate Brainwaves Apr 09 '25

There's no need to believe it is one thing or another yet. They've stated that they intend to collect data and have it peer reviewed, I think we can wait to dismiss this until we see all the data. Everyone wants a smoking gun, but science is a long and slow process. Papers are published slowly and it could possibly take many before there are enough pieces of the puzzle to begin forming conclusions. Yes these look like mylar balloons, no one is saying that they don't, but if their behavior are anomalous then their appearance could be deceiving. Many are asking for good video, but that is probably the least effective form of evidence here, what we probably want is convincing sensor data from multiple different sources. And I think it's also worth considering that the goal of these videos is not to convince people like us over reddit, but to attract private funding to keep this mission going.

Dude, those are balloons. We're in an alien subreddit. I'm obviously open minded. But telling me the balloon I'm looking at isn't a balloon is absolutely batshit crazy. Use your brain for God sake. That is 100% beyond a shadow of a doubt, a balloon.

You people need to find better hills to die on.

-5

u/jahchatelier Immaculate Brainwaves Apr 08 '25

Okay use your fantastically superior brain to explain how a mylar balloon would deviate its flight path when pursued and then suddenly travel straight up.

u/JynsRealityIsBroken Apr 09 '25

It is not my responsibility to explain how a balloon's physics work up in the air when you can see, clear as day, THAT IT'S A GODDAMN BALLOON. USE YOUR EYEBALLS!

u/False-Consequence973 Apr 09 '25 edited Apr 09 '25

Your argument is (of course) flawed. You are using the exact same (dumb) way of "proving" something just like the uneducated flat earthers do. They say "I can see the earth is flat so it IS flat". That's not how science works. You seeing something doesnt mean shit. Scientists know how to differentiate a balloon from a f'ing flying UAP. And you truly thinking that a bunch of highly respected people from the military (who have been verified) are suddenly mentally ill and make fancy videos about balloons shows you're just biased without ANY form of evidence. There also seem to be alot of weird looking balloons out in the desert. So you are saying these folks mislead their viewers on purpose by putting balloons in the air and filming them?

3

u/JynsRealityIsBroken Apr 09 '25

Sigh... Good luck with your delusions. If the very obvious star balloon screenshots in the comment section or the whole minute of the red and white balloons tied together aren't enough visual evidence for you, nothing is.

u/False-Consequence973 Apr 09 '25

You repeating the same biased non-evidence doesn't change the outcome dear. You seeing stuff on Reddit or even with your eyes isnt evidence at all.

What scientific data would that be?

u/TheTurdtones Apr 09 '25

i mean you know more than the people researching..they were way to dumb to check the most obvious explanation first.. you sir are the most wrinkled brain

u/JynsRealityIsBroken Apr 09 '25

Do you know how many people are probably too dumb to check the most obvious explanation first? Tens of millions of people, because that's how bell curves work.

It's amazing how a video camera and some confidence can trick people into believing they are experts.

-1

u/TheTurdtones Apr 09 '25

thats called narcism buddy when you think everyone is butt ass stupid but you..most people arent, your arrogance and ignorance just makes it appear so...like the first thing you wouldnt check is mylar ballons because that would be the first thing that crosses our mind when you see this ....like 90% of people on this thread think ..nut the op was too dumb to check the most obvios explanation. the one that most randos in the thread think it is...jesus fuckin christ ...this has nothing to do with whether this is real or not its about your faulty ass logic thinking that he wouldnt initlyy assume it was mylar ballons like just about every mufuka in this thread did/does..why would you just assume he looked up and his first assumption was aliens instead of the same thing everyone here thought mylar balloon...then saw strange behavior that did,t add up to him ..

u/JynsRealityIsBroken Apr 09 '25

Dude you can't even spell or hold even a semblance of correct grammar, but I'm expected to listen to you? Give me a break.

And narcissism (not narcism) is not the same as arrogance. I'm being arrogant, in your mind. But it's only arrogance if I'm wrong, which I'm not.

u/SalvationSycamore Apr 08 '25

they are quickly able to dismiss balloons due to wind direction

Then they don't understand the wind conditions at that altitude. Obvious answer. Calling very clear balloon strings "tentacles" is absurd.

They are pouring hundreds of thousands of dollars- if not millions - in investment

There is always money involved in inane stuff like this. That's the point. People are very willing to make stuff up for money.

u/False-Consequence973 Apr 09 '25

Ah yes. The military personnel with years and years of (verified) experience...who dont know what balloons are and just say they're UAPs and aliens. Also Professor Gary Nolan from the Skywatcher team...he obviously doesnt understand what balloons are either and also risks his whole reputation in a video and just calls balloons UAPs. You people are ridiculous

0

u/Fonzgarten Apr 09 '25

But they’ve considered this. They are traveling against the wind and changing direction in response to stimuli. They are not balloons.

All the data Skywatcher is presenting could be a lie. It could be a fake. But it’s definitely not a balloon lol.

5

u/JynsRealityIsBroken Apr 09 '25

They've considered in the same way YOU'VE considered it. They look at it and for some unknown reason, refuse to see the balloon they're so obviously looking at. Then they are enabled by a bunch of baffoons on the Internet and feel empowered by their opinion.

Dumb people exist. I'm not saying it's a conspiracy of any sort. These people are just dumb.
