White 'UFO' bursting through sky inadvertently captured by news crew

[Grim Reaper 6]

The Southwestern part of the US is a hotbed for alleged alien activity, with the likes of Roswell and Area 51 infamous for their UFO sightings. Apparently, one was accidentally caught on camera back in 2020 by NBC Nightly News. As recently reported, the sighting occurred during Cynthia McFadden’s story about how Arizona’s Navajo Nation dealt with the state’s water crisis during the pandemic several years ago. 

At one particular part of the piece there’s a pretty jarring moment as a disc-shaped object bursts through some clouds before flying across the sky.

That’s pretty funny, but I don’t think so my friend!

But who can say what it is? I suppose that's part of being a UFO, but, the shape of that object is not really discernable, however interesting.

Thats very true, the distance between the object and the observer is pretty great. But whatever it was it was moving pretty fast, in fact the news crew that was filming never saw it at all. It was sometime later when reviewing the film segment that it was discovered, so in the real sense it was an Unidentified Flying Object!

Peace Man!

It's can't be a UFO until we know that it's an object and we know that it's flying.

Well, no matter your thoughts on the subject it is certainly unidentified!!!!!

Like wow. lol

1. "until we know that it's an object" -  you have referred to the thing as "it", which means it is an object. 

and I think I dare not ask you what your definition of flying is. too lazy tonight

Great points Earl, you hit the nail on the head!

And we know that it is a plane.  Because that's what plane's do.  They fly in the sky.

Or as it originally read:

"... there’s a moment when an object appears behind some clouds and flies across the sky."

It's a shame that the close-up is taken from the video as broadcast, not the original footage.  I would be interested to learn if more information could be obtained, if the raw recordings still exist.

That's my guess here.  It's too distant and blurred to reach any firm conclusion.

I certainly agree with due the distance between the Camera and the object it's impossible to identify it. But, even with the distance and the fact you can see it at all, it must have been pretty large and based upon the time it was in the view of the Camera it was also moving at a pretty fast. But like you, I would also like to see the raw footage and fine out if more information is out there that could be useful in identifying the object!!!!

Anyway, I think it's a pretty good video and I have watched many times and until more information comes to light it's just another Unidentified Flying Object!

That is the best blurry disk l have ever seen, (the one that followed the Apollo astranauts was far better).

Why is it, if you have a blurry object tracing across the sky on film...no idea what it is...why is it that some people's minds just go to UFO.  Even though, yes, it is too blurry to identify...so it is an unidentified flying object...however, the fact that there are literally millions of airplanes and helicopters in the sky around the globe should greatly lessen the OMG, What was THAT??  reactions that some people have.  I mean, that's the exact reaction I had, OMG, What was THAT??...when I witnessed a weather balloon disintegrate while watching it with my binoculars...but then I did some research and it didn't take me long to find out what I'd actually seen.

It seems to be tracking right to left with about the same speed the camera is moving as well. Can't tell 100% because the clip is so short.

I'll tell ya, joc.. If I saw something fly by at 15,000 m/h and it's not a missile, I would be hollering "UFO" too. depends on the circumstances. 

And if a bogie flies into US airspace, I would fully expect the US military to go all out to shoot it out of the sky. I certainly would be shocked

if the military was as complacent about bogies as many UFO sceptics are. It's kinda' like - "hey, I don't know what it is, so forget about it!" lol.

There were a number of UFO sighting during the Operation Desert Storm. One night approximately 24 hr's before the ground invasion I was with my soldiers that were pulling guard duty. When all of a sudden, a shadow passed over us and instinctively we all looked up. Where, we say three V-shaped objects passing over our position well, the first thing we all thought was what the hell is that. Now, as it turns out they were not UFO's, they turned out to be F-117 Nighthawk Stealth Fighters going to Baghdad for a bombing run! In 1990, most members of the US Military and almost all Americans had no idea what a stealth aircraft like!!!!!!

In addition, they have a special exhaust system that makes almost completely silent when passing over a target! Below is a photo of the F-117 Nighthawk, flying in the same formation I saw them flying in 1991 except there were only three not four aircraft!

A lens flare is not an object. If you believe it is I will be glad to sell you one for $100.

Sometimes. When you pan the camera horizontally they can travel across the frame horizontally depending on the source of the light and the cause of the flare.

you can't use "lens flare" unless you can prove it. You can say you have a theory, but then again, don't we all.

Preponderance of evidence. We know lens flares exist, we know they look like this, and the only place it appeared was on this video. This explains all the evidence that I have read. Do you have anything else?

If I take a photo of a giraffe do I need to "prove" to you that it was a giraffe, not a creature from another planet?

If you take a photo of a giraffe and try to tell me it's a duck, you will meet resistance
