Time: March 27, 20:30 Location: Palm Springs, CA I’m visiting from out of town. My wife and I were outside talking and facing the sky (East), which was mostly clear with a few small thin clouds. The airport is near where we’re staying and air traffic is always NW-SW. Suddenly between planes arriving and departing, we see an object slowly traveling from N to S. It seemed to be higher than other aircraft and had no clear external lights or sound. Lighting: the object seemed slightly illuminated, not quite a glow but close, because it was clearly visible at night. It was evenly illuminated as well, not only partially like the airplanes we see frequently. It was also fuzzy, as if you couldn’t quite see a focused image of what it was. Kinda like the whole thing was wrapped in a material that looked blurred so you couldn’t see details but you could make out the general shape. Shape: It was a long cylindrical shape, like a cigar. I thought it was a balloon or something floating at first in the strong winds, but then it tilted and stopped for a moment, then reversed a small distance, than banked forward again and continued South at an even greater speed. My wife wondered if it was some kind of drone, but we both agreed that it seemed to be higher elevation than the aircraft arriving and departing from the airport and, if true, it would have meant this object was commercial aircraft in size. I’m unsure of any drones that fit this size and characteristic description. Only after watching in awe did we realize we should have tried to get it on video 🤦‍♂️ Has anyone else seen anything like this in this area? Or see this same object in the area the night of 3/27? submitted by /u/Retlandmusic [link] [comments]
