Can You Spot the Possible UFO in This Time-Lapse Video of a Meteor Shower?

Time-lapse videos of meteor showers are stunning. Footage of alleged UFOs are intriguing. But what do you get when you put the two of them together? A “dreamlapse.”

The video “Death Vally Dreamlapse” shows one team’s trek to the Eureka Dunes on Dec. 13, 2012, to catch the peak of the Geminid meteor shower.

” … we had to conquer epic climbs, sand roads with the 4×4 Jeep, and the occasional UFO,” Sunchaser Pictures writes on the video’s description.

Time Lapse Video of Geminid Meteor Shower Captures Potential UFO

The streak of light just off center to the right in this image shows the alleged UFO, which zoomed in and out of the camera’s field of view for a few seconds. The videographer pointed out that although it appears to be moving fast, this is due to the time-lapse speed of the footage. In reality, it moved quite slow. (Image: Vimeo screenshot)

Here’s what Sunchaser Pictures had to say about the UFO:

The “UFO” appears at (1:30-1:35) and makes three broad circular sweeps over the desert. Though in timelapse it appears to be moving fast, consider the 5 seconds = about 50 minutes, so it’s creeping. There was no sound, so it definitely wasn’t a helicopter. Closer picture here (bit.ly/T3yK3s). It can also be seen cutting through the circular star trails in the shot used [below]!

If might be easier for you to spot the UFO in these pictures if you take a look at the footage shot by Gavin Heffernan:

    WARNING!!!!! ….What I am about to tell you is… the #1 Threat to us, and everyone on earth!

    Its NOT guns, it’s NOT money, it’s NOT terrorists, it’s NOT tyranny, it’s NOT UN invasion, it’s NOT your violation of rights!

    So what’s this “big” threat? Don’t even bother looking, it’s not big at all, you can’t see it with your naked eye!
    I am NOT a Doctor, nor do I claim to be one. But! I do own a microscope.

    Is your skin itchy? Even when just out of the shower?
    Does it ever feel like its moving or something is underneath it?
    Do your muscles and joints lock up and ache, even though your in great shape?
    Do you have sore that won’t heal?

    They are EVERYWHERE!
    On you, in you, in your house, on your lampshades, in your carpet etc…. “EVERYWHERE”

    I am speaking of “MORGELLONS” disease, and it’s not a disease at all!

    I have compared the size of them to the smallest hairs you can find, Rug fibers, human hair, even cigarette filter particles and guess what… Not only do all the items mentioned above look like tree trunks in comparison to the morgellon’s fibers under the scope, but also, they are not blue, red, brown or black like morgellons is. I have taken samples from everywhere… and they are EVERYWHERE!!!!

    Over the next few months I will be your conductor on this ride into the Morgellons rabbit hole. This is the internet, I don’t expect you to trust me (yet) Don’t take my word, watch this link from ABC’s Nightline 2008. Enj

      Geee big suprise!!! First time I join Blaze and my comp freezes (it never has before) while typing this post the first time.
      Now I look at my post and it stops short of me saying “Enjoy” and there is no link following it
      (Yes I had characters left).

      This is very alarming but expected. They know who I am now and will try to stop me at any cost.

      The fact that they try to stop me, gives me a comfortable and a fuzzy feeling knowing I am under they’re skin like F@#$%&@ Morgellon fiber!

      Now I will post the original link I attempted to post previous. Enjoy.

    BillBobetal, your “renowned mathametician” is an imbecile, a coward or a paid stooge of you-know-whom…We’re not talking about our solar system, we’re talking about the whole effin’ Universe, in which case, the math-odds of other lifeforms is not just possible but mandatory due to the scale and percentages of probability. In fact, the odds are even pretty good that some civilization somewhere out there speaks a language similar to English! We humans have as much chance of cogently discerning their existence and intent as do a school of fish discussing the existence and intent of a fishing trawler and the sailors aboard. Have a nice day.

    As a Canuck who thought he’d take a week and instead of driving straight home, swing through the desert on a 3 month trip after Florida – Louisanna, I took another 6 months to hang out in the deserts. I would highly recommend you go and see some of it.

    Majestic. Deadly. Beautiful. I felt at home out there. The solitude. The grandeur.

    I can’t wait to go back. It was like I’d been there before.

    And yeah, I saw some pretty intereresting stuff, too. This kind of stuff.

    A Christian can believe in life outside our solar system. There is nothing in the Bible that refutes the idea that life could exist on other planets.

    For those Christians that seem to believe that their faith requires a close mind on the population of the Universe, I feel sorry for you to place those limits on the Almighty. How egocentric to believe that all of This was created for our amusement. For those that believe that God is some sort of being from another planet…stop watching Scyfy until you grow up and get an adult grasp on your imagination. New research has unlocked possibilities of a vast number of dimensions and possibly other Universes other than the one we hardly know anything about. Just in our own Milky Way Galaxy, there are billions of planets that could possibly support life. Do the math, with literally trillions of galaxies, millions of them larger than our own, with billions of their own “Goldy Locks” planets…I’m certain we are not alone. But, when we put these labels on God, we put the requirement that in order for God to exist, we must exist…so foolish. The same God that created us and ‘breathed’ the stars into existence, wove the dimensions into the elegant mystery they pose for the smartest among us. We will never understand what we think we have figured out, so why not just marvel at it?

      The universe wasn’t created for our amusement, it was created to show us the mind boggling glory and majesty of our God. It was designed to humble us, not make us arrogant. To cause us to fall in worship of the Being Who can speak such wonders into existence and knows each star by name and, simultaneously, knows the very number of hairs on our head. Also to demonstrate His incredible love for such insignificant creatures that He would humble Himself, walk among us and then die for us, conquer death and offer us eternal life with Him. As Larry Norman wrote: “If there’s life on other planets, then I’m sure that He must know and He’s been there once already and has died to save their souls” (From the song ‘UFO’)

    This is DUMB. you can clearly make out the green portion of the arc which transitions to red. All this is, is an airplane making a wide turn at a higher altitude.

      Agreed. The light appears to be green on the portion of the arc that you’d be viewing the right side of the aircraft, and is no longer green as the aircraft (or flying saucer if some of you must have it that way) exposes what would be the left side of the “craft”.

      It exhibits the lighting characteristic of a conventional aircraft. Therefore, it’s quite probably a conventional aircraft. I guess it could be from some other planet/galaxy/dimension, but if that is true, it is reassuring to know that they observe FAA lighting regulations. Very considerate of the grey’s to keep their saucers legal while they’re visiting us.

      Helpful hint is Occam’s Razor:

      Other intelligent life is one thing. Interstellar travel is an entirely different thing. It may well be impossible for living beings to travel to the stars.
      Then how intelligent are we? Some think the USA is great because of food stamps and social security. I know of no entrpeneurs that embark on their American dream with the idea that there are food stamps and social security to fall back on should they fail. Really.

      Actually, a renowned mathmatician has figured those odds. It is unbelievably UNLIKELY that there is other life out there. 10 to the 10th to the 123rd that even ONE planet could support life in our solar system. So, I highly doubt there is another. But even if there was, you would have to beat the unbelievable odds of so called “evolution” …….

      We are the only and best evidence there is for intelligent life in the universe. It’s pretty silly, knowing how big the known universe is, that anyone could think that in all that our small planet is the only place where life started and evolved into intelligent life.

      If you believe in evolution, it makes perfect sense to assume there is life out there.

      If you are a Christian or Jewish, it is perfectly reasonable to believe God made this all as a habitat only for us to see evidence of his limitless scale.

      I’m not sure what other intelligent life out there would have to do with our world? Curiosity, looking for prospective slaves, desire to communicate and share ideas, barter/commerce? Still a big question for me. Luckily, I don’t need to have an answer to be at ease with my beliefs.

      @SUBIC All things are possible until known, and then only what is known is possible and all of the rest must be discarded. We don’t know what the objects that VAST amounts of people see constantly are. There is just too much good video footage and reliable eyewitness accounts of these objects for it to be casually dismissed or easily placed into the “known” category. Now, that is NOT to say conclusively that they are alien vehicles. It could be new bleeding edge (or beyond) military tech easily developed by good ole’ **** sapien sapien.

      Or, it truly could be alien vehicles that are conducting research and observation here on Earth. Too many ignorant human beings who THINK, in arrogance, that they know more than they really know believe that the vast linear distances between stars precludes this possibility. However, the truth is that the shortest distance between two points is really a CURVE, that being the curvature of spacetime through gravity. And gravity is like any other field, with understanding and engineering it can manipulated and/or generated. Moreover, the discovery of the Higgs field as a reality could possibly allow for the generation a suppression field which would “eliminate” mass in matter, thus allowing for faster than light travel. There are many possibilities for interstellar travel in short periods of time. So that is still a possibility not to be discounted.
