Full Spectrum Video - Mysterious light moving along the horizon
A few days ago I posted some long exposure photos that contained a streak in the image. Since these photos were exposures at around 2 seconds it was hard to tell what I was seeing. So I changed my mode to video and starting recording at 1080p at 60 FPS.

Though currently the decentralized video platforms only offer around 720p. So in the future I may reload this when they offer better encoding. But in the mean time you can still see what I saw.
Judging by its direction, it entered in the northern part of the sky and exited in the southern part of the sky when I lost sight of it. From a little research that is known as a Polar orbit, which military satellites use from what ive read.
I find it interesting in the video how it flickers, changes to an orange color and dims and brightens. There is two parts to this video, first at full speed uncropped. And then the second part is zoomed in by 10x and slowed down to 30fps which doubles the footage. In the later the orange color is more noticeable. It mostly stays white and flickers like a candle. It seems to most at a near constant speed and does not change course.

Unfortunately some people aren’t ready for the truth about what really exist hereon this “planet “and to answer your question yes.i have seen lights like those and in other forms all the time.once I’ve seen a scanner/scout that looked like a long search light .like the ones you see on a radar screen.its many reasons why they exist.and it’s a long story as to why they exist.but they exist.and have been around for eons .
@originalathena I'm sure there is alot more to be seen outside of the visual spectrum and I have a feeling they have been around for a long time too.

Wow, when you zoomed in it looks really strange. It kind of looks like the iconic black knight satellite.

@balticbadger glad you liked it, yeah the zoomed in portion you can really see that flickering.. I saw orange, yellow, red and white flickers.. all invisible to my eye. Hah that would be wild, I'm familiar with that object.
I have the sky app on my phone to show where it shows where the planets are and sat. and ect. Maybe that will help you in the future.
@cosmiccrimes good idea, I should figure out the date and time and see if anything lines up.
