In late February I was taking advantage of a warm day to sunbathe on my balcony. It was 1:30pm and I was laying down on a gym mattress, looking up. From my point of view the sky was unobstructed from a 20 degrees angle to the right (East) to a 40 degrees angle to the left (West) from zenith. The sky was clear. I saw an object moving from left to right in the sky. It was moving to the right at a fixed speed and direction, without leaving a trail. It looked metallic, shining a bit when reflecting sunlight. It's difficult to estimate the size and distance, but it was certainly below airplaines' altitude, maybe between 1000 and 4000 meters. Supposing it was that high up, it looked like the size of two cars. It was also difficult to figure out its exact shape, as it was rotating on itself, maybe even transforming its shape. It looked round and allongated from one side, like an egg, but it looked flat when turned around, a bit like a sunflower seed. What is very strange is the way it rotated on itself. While its movement through the sky didn't change, it's spin was erratic and unpredictable. Its rotation speed changed and reversed many times at irregular intervals. Its rotation axis pointed to different directions and different speeds unpredictably, too. About halfway through my field of vision from the balcony, it also started to move to the sideways (up and down from my point of view while still going right steadily), maybe changing altitude too. These movements looked random while the movement to the right kept the same fixed direction and speed. I live above a populated area, near the mountains. There is strong military presence around. I can't be the only one who has seen this object in the sky in broad daylight, and the military must have detected it. But I have no idea what it was. It had no wings, no trail, and it behaved unlike anything else. submitted by /u/username_77571 [link] [comments]
