Having watched the video I would guess that it's a bat hunting insects. They can rise to very high altitudes at night to hunt. Higher than you'd think.
A kite also sounds possible, but I think it's less likely. During the point when the object "stops and hovers for a second" (ie, moves towards the camera ) there is erratic side-to-side movement that makes it clear that this is no "heavy" craft, but rather something small that is fighting against wind currents and being buffeted about slightly as it flies.
In the end, the object moves to... organically. If it were a UFO I'd expect to see straight lines and sharp right angle turns. It would feel different. It would raise the hairs on the back of my neck, and the movements would be so precise that it would almost look photo shopped. That's what a real high-altitude UFO looks like - like it's putting on a show for you with its geometric patterns of movement.
This one doesn't look right to me at all. Sorry.
First off, this was shot in the middle of winter -15 (I think it was) celcius, so it can't be a bat. Second, can't you tell how zoomed in this is? The kite would have to be flying at long distance aircraft altitudes, also, how can you say that a UFO would be more likely to go in straight lines? Have you seen so many that you can give a professional opinion?
I'm sorry, but your argument fails on so many levels. You're entitled to your opinion of course, but they're, sorry, amateurish at best.

3. There is a difference between "intelligently controlled" and "organic" movement. The little dot moves like a bat. If that little dot was a flying saucer, than it must have been a student driver, because he was all over the place, and his movements were needlessly random.

Ps. It's a bat.

PS. saw a bat tonight, and boy this one must have been last years model - because it was flying around like a bat, and at the speed of a bat! I have never seen a bat pull out g-forces when it flies like the bats you think you see in this cool video...
Yes, because one bat represents all bats.
How about these guys?
www.youtube.com...
Even at this height their wing movement is hard to spot and they're pulling some serious G's are they not.
Imagine them at a higher altitude and you'll get something very similar to what we see in the OP video.

We need the goverment to be interested in the UFO(E.T) phenomenon again, like they were with Project Blue Book. We need HD footage from fighter jets stalking them, to WOW the public.
Its a snowball effect there on.
Why the need for anti-gravity? We are seeing it from the ground, as far as we know it could be doing those manoeuvres and falling at the same time, we don't have anything to know its altitude.

A bat with some kind of anti-gravity device on his back!?
Or maybe not. Just because it's also a bright object seen in the near infrared it doesn't mean it's the same thing as the other object seen in different conditions.
Did you guys ever saw the STS video's from NASA, where some particle is glowing on earth orbit? Maybe its something similar.
Did he used it to make this video? I only saw he saying that he has a telescope, I didn't saw he saying that it was used to make this video, but I didn't read all the comments, I may have missed it.
This guy is using a telescope to follow those objects.
And how do you know that?
Those objects are several kilometers high upon the air, if not much higher (15km+).
No, bats don't fly that high, but where did you got those 15km+ value?
Bats wont fly that high. Neither they accelerate at that hight. Even the turns which they make, if a bat would do that at that speed, it get crushed by the gravity forces.
And how do you know that?
Anyway, it are not birds, sattelites, balloons, kites, planes, helicopters, rc-planes.
Unfortunately, I think that will never happen, and the reverse is impossible, because if even all believers die before the expected "revelation" they will die thinking "it may be tomorrow".
I wanna see how the debunkers (disbelievers) deal with the real stuff in the future if it ever happens.

Bats... yeah. Sorry to disagree but I seE bats a lot and like insects they are near impossible to track with a camera. I haven't read all replies yet so if someone has already made this comparrison then I do apologise.
They are not Bats.
