They look nothing like Chinese lanterns When you can't tell what they are then they are Ufo's.....

Actually... they look EXACTLY like Chinese lanterns.

Not only do they look EXACTLY like Chinese lanterns. They MOVE EXACTLY like Chinese lanterns.

Seriously, I can't see why people put so much focus on videos which show totally mundane and easily explainable phenomena.

Please post a video of Chinese lanterns that look like this. Not videos of lights that people here just called lanterns but actual (official) Chinese lantern launches where it shows them launch them and they are known to be lanterns. They don't look like this.

Chinese lanterns give off a yellow light.
Wait and see.
Blue egg shaped light had to be Tesla ships.
Pure light from the atmosphere.
Try the oval ships witnessed by Zamora and Walton.
They should give all around light effects.

They are lanterns tied into formation with Kite string. LOL! Nah, I don't know what they are. Could be though. ~SheopleNation

#1 - I actually lived in South Korea for a year and I can honestly say that I never once saw Chinese lanterns floating in the sky - so they aren't more common over there than they are over here and they are not at all comparable to fireworks in America.

#2 - I have personally launched quite a few Chinese lanterns in my time and, depending on what size you get, they can be very bright in the daytime as well as at night. It is also quite easy to have a "formation" of lanterns flying with just a couple of people lighting them. They look and act exactly like the video on the first page of this thread and are just as bright.

#3 - These are without a doubt Chinese lanterns.

So...which is it?

You've never once seen Chinese Lanterns floating in the sky, or you've personally launched quite a few Chinese Lanterns?

Seems to be a contradiction in your post.

Well Here is a Thread you ATS Members want to check OUT !

Ufos or Chinese Lanterns! Comparison

Most of us are so done with bright lights. If that is the best you have keep it to yourself..

At least they ain't green lanterns. Seriously, I need to see more than lights before I'm convinced.

Anybody who says these are lanterns really hasn't seen a lantern outside there own house before, or let one of in the sky before, because they really are alot dimmer & dumber and never hold a formation, what was they using in these... 100 candles maybe?

They are very dim on camera phones you can't pick them up to far away at all, they are generally out of sight in a minute or so, and they never travel horizontal in any conditions they go up up up up up and disappear, gone... much like a mini hot air balloon which is essentially what they are right?, they are tiny orange dots pretty much as soon as you let go LOL, not solid white lights like these traveling across the sky in formations which actually hold for longer than half a second

You must have seen the cheaper ones lol, the ones I've seen are at least 5 mile distance and bright as those on the video. The reason they hold formation is due to a low wind not dispersing them much.

Chinese Lanterns, I bet my life on it!

If theres low to zero wind they travel and climb a a good rate, its essentially a hot air balloon with it booster on constantly

I have seen and released many different kinds big and small cheap and not so cheap, i know the difference because i have seen the difference, the real thing up close, and a silly lantern, the real ones are much brighter and consist of brilliant white light sometimes brilliant orange light but constantly bright that can some times flare up to nearly 5 times the size of the original size, blink on and off...change positions in seconds

i'm not saying there are not some mistaken identities with lantern because there are, and yes they are similar, but from someone who seen one of these real orb like crafts from 200ft directly above, there is no way of mistaking them from lanterns, they do fly similar to lanterns while travelling in lose formation, but generally lanterns with have a pitch to there accents and flicker dim & orange, i don't know whether or not this is there intentions to trick people or not, but when just a few of them are on there own and not flying in mass fleets they do some really cool stuff even sometime in fleet they will do these things, materialise out of nothing, dematerialise, in that process they go almost translucent/see through, they can reach incredible speeds, up close they look like mini suns burning

I believe these ones are the real deal, as they are solid white lights not flickering and traveling horizontal, all i can tell you is not all these fleets of orb are lanterns, if you was to see one up close you would be absolutely blow away, i can only hope you do, because it will be very frustrating for you to to hear them all just being past of as lanterns when you 100% know they are not,

I'm not trying to convince you or anybody, but just ask that people look abit harder and think abit harder in what they are looking at and open there mind a little bit because you are just fooling yourselves if your going to come in take one look at the video and match it up to a lantern in your head with out considering the small detail that could really set them apart,

Id love to see a debunker go out and recreate what the believer consider to be the real ones, and try replicate the footage i think its about time we did this, maybe ATS could set this up

If you go to Youtube user Seeing UFOs PA she has caught some of the best orb ufos i have seen that id consider to be closer to what i have seen and 100% the real deal, i do believe in some cases she has a fair few commercial flights

Also this... 100% the real deal

Watch all the videos on this channel, there is quite alot to get though but by the end you should be able to draw your own conclusion taking in all the info along the way

Ok Guys this will be my first post, but I've been following ATS for a while now. I'm in the US Air Force and I'm stationed at Kunsan AB which is approximately 50 miles away from the UFO Sighting area to the southwest.
On the 16 17 and 18 of Aug 2011, the base commander shut down all flying operations on account of flightline mishaps, planes bumping into each other on the ground and such.

Now what a coincidence because this sort of thing NEVER HAPPENS and wait a massive UFO sighting 5 mins away by air at the same time this is going down? I'm bringing you all some solid info and I hope you all take it seriously because it seems like 90% of base personnel have their heads in the ground.

Hi and welcome to ATS KEmidnight


I hope you are who you say you are, it really does lend some weight toward this sighting which i believe is a legitimate one, and not just your every day pesky little lanterns,

what do you mean by planes bumping into each other on the ground? actual crashes?

If you have any other strange story on base or while in the Air Force please feel free to start a new thread id certainly be interested in hearing them

Thank you for posting

Double post "AGAIN"

of all the balloon cases, I wonder why no one has ever come forward and said "oh yeah, those are my balloons up there.

As a matter of fact someone has indeed come forward and said just that for a sighting that was exactly the same as this one, only it was in Chicago. A video was taken of the Chicago sighting and it was blasted all over the US news networks as a UFO sighting. "Experts" were interviewed and explained how the movements could not be any kind of balloons or sky lanterns, but in fact that's exactly what they were. The people that released them were shocked when they saw their lanterns on the UFO reports and they quickly went to the media to explain that they were sky lanterns that were released as a show of support for abused children. Here's a link to the news story, make sure to watch the video clip because you will see it is nearly identical to the one in the OP.

I'm always a little excited when opening new UFO threads because each time I hope that "this is the one", but over and over again I get treated to the same crappy clips of fuzzy lights moving slowly across the sky

Its not making much sense here in Korea right now.

There have been a few aircraft incidents and from what we were told (USAF Personnel) two F-16s crashed into each other while taxing (fender bender) and another F-16 crashed into a hanger door... Imagine that. This is not what is surprising to me because the pilots are people who make mistakes just like everyone else. Unfortunately it costed a few million dollars of the american tax payers money when they do.

So on 18 Aug 2011, the base commander had what is called a "Wolfs Call" which is just a base wide meeting so he can talk to us in person. During this briefing he stated he was "scared" in the context of aircraft safety and went on to state that was the reason he grounded all are planes for three days. So that's the official reason.

I was shocked and felt terror when I came on ATS and read UFO's spotted in Korea 50 miles away from base. WTF! Noooo I grabbed my camera and went out last night UFO hunting. I didn't see much besides two jets taking off to the north which is common and a stray cat. It was too cloudy to see anything in the sky. So I started looking at 8PM and gave up at 10PM yesterday night.

I went out drinking with some other airmen after I gave up last night and came across some air traffic controllers that I knew in one of the bars down in A-Town. I asked them about the sighting and asked if anything was up there. They said "we cant comment on that" I said seriously give me something and they said again "sorry our job won't let us comment on that". That is all I got out of them...

Thats all I got in regards to this sighting and I feel like a crazy man when I talk to people about it.

But to recap,
Kunsan AB 50 Miles from Daejeon, Korea shut down air operations on the 16, 17, 18 of Aug. and there was a massive UFO sighting during this period, Plus air traffic control wont comment on it.

I"t has to be aliens because that's the only explanation!

Sarcasm off.I'm all for a good ufo video but they look like Chinese lanterns to me.I'm going with lanterns on this one.

sky lanterns

but im sure this has been mentioned already

Very cool pics, They're everywhere nowadays it seems.

I hope you guys realise the term UFO doesnt mean aliens

When it comes to technology, anything is possible, but why would Aliens travel hundreds of light years to Earth and then spend the next 70 years, flying about in our skies, imitating Chinese lanterns and balloons. They must be cosmic jokers or up to no good. Which one is it

To outwit a superior foe, it helps if you think outside the box.

Honestly though, getting a decent shot of a UFO is next to impossible. The sheer distance and light diffusion caused during a sighting makes getting a clear shot near impossible. Until they make them-self known if at all, the best way to study them is to watch video and take the story's seriously.

Than you kemidnight for posting this information, I'm very interested to here more
