UFO Over Vegas Hotel?

You would probably get in a lot of trouble with drones that aren't licensed down on the strip. You would probably be inside airport airspace which is highly controlled. Plus they do helicopter tours around the clock so that's would be another major hazard to flying drones there. I meant I can't say its not possible...I just don't believe its very likely.

Different types of permissions……

Part 107 Airspace Authorizations

I was going to post this. And I'm surprised that there isn't more discussion about this. Or the video linked to the post. Anyways the video is on tiktok and I lined it above. This happened over Sapphire strip club in las vegas. There's multiple video's from different people showing the same UAP. At first I thought that it was some lighting illuminating the clouds. However there's a reflection of some sort when the spotlights hit whatever is there.

Here's another video where a guy has compiled multiple different pov's and talks about it.

I want to believe.

But…

I think this is faked for click bait/ viral promotion for the Sapphire Gentlemen's club.

One would only have to check the local news stories of the day or the day after the occurrence. I’ll bet nothing has been mentioned.

You would think that any one of the witnesses would have called a local news station at a minimum if it was such a big deal. It definitely didn’t make national news, that I know of.

A promotional stunt to get witnesses close enough to the Sapphire Gentlemen’s Club, for the witnesses to then tell themselves……”while we’re here, we might as well step into the Club” seems more likely.

Bingo….the bait works.

We’ve mentioned here at ATS before……a good UFO sighting is made by multiple witnesses and multiple cameras from different angles……yet here we are today…..still going on with our lives……the Las Vegas UFO story….makes no impact on society.

Nothing to see here….

By it's very definition...this was absolutely a UFO!

The unidentified part is obviously up for debate...unidentified to who exactly?

Maybe it's a hoax...but it sure fooled a lot of people...seems to still be having that effect!

I don't know...the lights shining on it and not through it seems to suggest that something it there. I'll be the first to admit though, when it comes to UFO's...I'm pretty easily fooled myself! I'd like to believe in alien life and so believing in unexplained UFO's comes naturally for me! My first thought is always...they're finally here!

My vote: a well-planned, well-funded, well-rehearsed, well-orchestrated, clandestine promotional stunt. Just another bigger, over-the-top spectacle among big spectacles. Adding a bit of 'mystery' is just icing on the cake.

Of course - The truth will come out eventually. There are just too many optical effects/theatrical type-experts and such required to pull it off in order to keep it a secret indefinitely. BTW - the 'reflection' can be easily timed as part of the choreography. It's a script. A 'show'. Done the 'Vegas Way.

or:

It's a giant alien ship descending to within a few feet of millions of glitz-saturated humans parking itself conveniently and directly in the path of searchlights, with more convenient misty clouds to obscure a clear line-of-sight.



Incidentally:

*Any local Las Vegas news coverage of this?
*Any video of the object arriving or departing? Or - did it 'just Appear'?
*The object was floating for quite a while. NO witnesses got a better shot? Another angle? Another perspective?
*Anybody care to ask the FAA or local Harry Reid airport ATC about it?


Fun to watch, though. The later clips on that same video looked a bit sketchy - kind of lumped this craft in with various global Bigfeets, etc. - which, IMHO, did not lend the Vegas ship clip much credibility.

This is George Knapp's back yard, he hasn't made a peep about it... No mention even on MysteryWire nore Coast 2 Coast.

Very well put. I am glad you agree with the premise of my post.

There are too many unknown factors that could contribute to this phenomena over las vegas. Multiple individual reports and recordings, as well as a news piece would be expected as a minimum if there was anything substantive to this.

It's reflected lights from the buildings below

You are likely correct.

I’m happy you found a local news article about it…..

However I’m not convinced of the ‘reflection’ theory.

This would be fine if your flying above the clouds looking down into and through to see the lights on top of buildings



But if your on the ground looking up……I would expect for a reflection, as in a mirror, to be seen opposite like this….



Or



Or perhaps I’m dyslexic….

Why would it transpose itself in a reflection?

I am failing to see the logic...if I'm on the ground looking up at things reflecting from the ground...why wouldn't they be in the same position in the sky? That makes no sense at all to me!

I don't think that's logical...if you are looking in the mirror and you raise your right hand...which hand is raised in the mirror? Still your right hand right? So if the light on the ground are on the right...and their reflection in the sky is on the right...this makes sense! Why would the lights on the right reflect on the left? That makes no sense!

You are correct transposing is illogical and senseless….as I wrote “I would expect”….the expectation is incorrect.

I don't know if I'm correct or not!

I'm trying to imagine laying on the floor holding a mirror above me...would everything be reflected the same in the mirror as it is on the floor? I'm going to try it and get back to you!

My only issue with his cloud reflection...as it does look spot on...is what the hell is reflecting as those spotlights pass by the red part. It happens many times and looks like a clear metallic or other very shiney surface.

Not a reflection as much as like a projector hitting a screen.

a reply to: jerryznv

Here’s an experiment using a glass table top…….



The arrow just indicates my eyes as I view it upright the same as the daylight picture…..

Then imagine your on the ground looking up….using the glass of the table as the clouds….

Now the arrow just indicates my eyes as I view it upright the same as the night picture…..

What do you think?….it looks transposed to me……why wouldn’t it be the same idea in real life?

The “mirror” effect is clearly wrong….dismiss it.

More like a projector screens than a mirror

a reply to: RickyD

Yeah I’ll still lean to drones projecting light effects and using the clouds as a projection screen ….. as I mentioned in my example on pg 1 of this thread.

Okay...yes dismiss the mirror reflection thought!

I'm not following this new theory...how does "b" become "d"...it has to flip somehow...are you saying this is not a reflection?

No matter what I do...I can't make my mind flip those...I am missing something!

Something is reflecting the light...no doubt about that!

Something is up there...the lights from the buildings on the ground are also reflecting (off) of it for sure too...

ETA: After reading about the ice pillars...ice pillars could be the something...it would be an awesome phenomenon to see though!
