What have I just seen in the sky?

Not Starlink, very unlikely to be visible in daylight (though must check some time) and certainly not manuvering/making sharp turns..

Starlink?

I wonder if there's new tech no one knows about as its got to be something?

Imagine seeing the Harrier testing when it was a secret ?

I didn’t even know swans could fly 🫢

Well, yes, good point! I assumed that whatever it was that fly over my house was UK (or possibly US) military, and it was flying from where our nearest base is located. But, who knows?

I will say, it was far, far too low to be flying 'incognito' as it were. If it wasn't one of ours, then I would have seen fighters scrambling over the house.

It was just absolutely silent. 3am, no birds, no cars, not a hint of a sound from it, like it was just floating over the house. At about the altitude of a helicopter, so not high at all. And, in the dark, no indication of what shape it was, except for the lights in a v-formation. No blinking lights. No red lights. Just steady, bright, white lights. And very slow. Slower than a helicopter. I watched it come from the west, over the house, heading east. A full ten minutes I watched it.

Had to be military.

Also I was Just saying this week about how my relative always gives me the "there there, poor stupid you" reaction when I talk about weird phenomenon. Including Congress discussion of UFOs. Like that news never hit mainstream news. As said before UFO is anything we can't identify. They definitely exist. If they later turn out to be Chinese balloons, they are still UFO until point of identification.

I had a visual hallucinations and saw a "ghost" my relative did not belive me. Even 1%. But it's a proven fact that eg drugs and illness make people hallucinate. But I can't hallucinate as I'm a bit simple.

This totally freaks me out. Because some of the stuff discussed in Congress defied our knowledge of physics and physics freaks me out at the best of times. So if say the Chinese know more about physics than us? 🤯

I want to see disclosure day but ufos give me the fear.

Absolutely our military know what these things are. Mind you there is so much hidden from us on that front rightly so. I'm happy not knowing if we have Chinese drones over our military bases.

It's interesting that this weird stuff happens close to our bases. Let's hope it's us developing cutting edge tech. But with our spending on defence, I'm not so sure

UFOs/aliens.

Sure about what?

How do they stop and change direction? They are in orbit surely?

With the sudden turning and the stopping completely I would assume drones. I’ve seen a drone light show and they can move very fast into the next formation and stay very still. They are quite loud though, but perhaps wouldn’t be if they’re very high up. I think there are rules about flying them over houses but maybe not at a certain height?

Not satellites -they're not visible in daylight.

One big problem here is it's pretty much impossible to judge the range of an unknown object against the sky.with any accuracy at all...

If a formation was practicing overland, at a weekend, near the overhead of an airport I'd expect the leader to be squawking, so visible on Flightradar....I'd also expect to hear some noise and I wouldn't expect very rapid changes in direction.

TBH my best guess would be a flock of birds, e.g. gulls or similar, but it's anyone's guess.

Why are you so sure about that ?

I wonder if there's new tech no one knows about as its got to be something?

I would not be at all surprised if there's a lot of silent, military tech that we know nothing about. And never will until the files are declassified 50 years from now.

Remember the Chinese spy balloons appearing over the US and (I think?) Norway? Ordinary people had no idea they were up there until something went wrong with them. The US military pretended they had to investigate, but don't tell me they didn't already know about them!

Satellites. Sadly not aliens but I'm holding out hope.

There's some weird stuff going on as discussed in Congress that couldn't be explained. Freaks me out and I'm in the Ɓrian Cox camp with Aliens don't exist. Still doesn't help it make sense. Not many planes can stop mid air and too expensive to have a V formation of them.

I wonder if there's new tech no one knows about as its got to be something?

We have military plains and helicopter and they really don't care about noise. Chinook helicopters regularly three times the high of the house and had a bomber circling extremely low as well.

Chariots of the gods man! They’re dropping out of the sky like flies! They taught the Incas all they know!

I've seen something very like this fly over the house, but at night and quite low (at least it looked low to me). Lights in a v-formation. No sound at all. No trails. Moved slowly and silently over the house, about 3am. I assumed military, perhaps drone, but as it passed over the house, it was HUGE. I think the military bases around here (not very close) probably have regulations about flying silently over populated areas at night. But I've never heard of aircraft that silent.

I've also seen the satellite lines, in early evening, much higher, much faster, in a line, not v-formation.

My guess would be US or UK military, drones or something, or Chinese drones.

Oh blimey, I was looking at the circle you had drawn round them, wondering what it was

Probably flying at that altitude to reduce their acoustic signature given that it's a Sunday. Much louder when they fly closer to the ground and, of course, more entertaining for the crowd. I bet that's it. If they were being deployed they wouldn't be quiet either. I think it's rehearsing formations.
