Last summer I had what was probably the most profound experience of my entire life I’ll post a brief summary of that first, but my real point is what comes next. I witnessed, up close and undeniably real , with another witness, several smaller orbs of light moving around in the sky and even near the ground. Major events - saw one of them ZIP down from what i would call “space”, faster than anything I have ever seen, MANy times faster than a shooting star (I don’t want to make a terrible estimate, I really couldn’t tell… but “much faster”, at least 10 times, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it was more…, AND then it stops on a dime right above the treeline, in line with a half dozen others just floating there a hundred feet in the air or so. We also saw one other do the same thing, but in the opposite direction. just from a complete standstill, it suddenly just shot across the sky and disappeared, same speed as the other. The others eventually just kind of faded away, we only saw those two do that… but THAT for me is undeniable personal proof that these things are real. the event that I want to ask about though, is that at one point I attempted to approach one of them that had been hovering a few feet above the ground in one particular area for many minutes. as I approached, the flashlight I had (swisstech, like $50 or so from Walmart, rechargeable, 4 modes plus strobe, bright white led… I’ll take a pic too. says 5000 lumens on it), which has a WHiTE, single LED, began strobing through all different colors of the rainbow. My partner and I both remember it as strobing as usual, but with each pulse of light being a different color, I distinctly remember red, yellow and green at least. another possibility is that the light was not changing per pulse, but rather smoothly and rapidly transitioning across the spectrum at some other rate, and the lights pulses were independent of that. Anyway, the reason I’m posting this now is that I was just talking to ChatGPT and discovered that this flashlight is NOT physically able output red or yellow light. the way it’s made (blue led with phosphorus coating layer), it’s not physically possible. YET, we both saw it! being interested in this sort of stuff, we even knew we shouldn’t discuss what we saw as it was happening, we ended up both writing our interpretations before talking about it, and we both described seeing the exact same thing. this flashlight right here was putting out multicolor light, and this Physics AI is telling me that’s impossible. Can anyone explain this? submitted by /u/Icy-Bite-168 [link] [comments]
