I don't buy the theory that they could be Russian or Chinese because they would have to be very state of the art, but these reported sightings are already many years old. And UFOs have been with us for decades, reportedly.
And just because US government declassified these reports doesn't mean they declassified everything.
What gives me some pause in my UFO-beliefs however is that these days everybody has a cell-phone with a video-camera. We should by now have many more video-recordings of UFOs than before.
There's a guy in Italy that sets up high spec cameras and has some good video. A guy in Australia that has some. Also the Friendship UFO case in Italy from the 1960s for older footage, although some of that is diluted by faked video disinformation to discredit the real footage. I'll try to find the YouTube links.
That first one is just satellites, though. If you use apps and/or sites like Heavens Above you can see exactly this fairly often.
I've sometimes seen several at a time at night when walking the dogs. When I get home I look them up to identify what they were. Depending on where the sun is below the horizon and how clear the sky is, some nights it's almost impossible to not casually spot at least one, and other nights there are so many it's quite surprising.
ISS always really stands out because it is relatively close and is much larger than other satellites.
When you see more than one travelling in the same direction, they're nearly always a "train" which is basically what you get when they release a bunch of new satellites but they aren't in position yet. And if you're lucky, you can catch various units "chasing" the ISS with supplies.
That doesn't explain the other two links, though. They are more connected to what people wanted from the report.
The guy who was a mass sighting contactee but didn't know it. The aliens must land in your yard soon they're getting frustrated you keep seeing them but thinking it's satellites....:) ;P ;) xx
But seriously, the Slattery videos in that first linked playlist are all satellites? I don't think so. Can you share a video of satellites to compare? You can clearly see trees in some and the size of this "ISS" is huge. And it's at daytime. I've never seen a bright white orb flying past at daytime.
I think maybe the faraway small ones at night could be satellites, but daytime large ones? Not a chance.
You don't have to believe in Unidentified Flying Objects. By definition they exist when people observe something in the sky that cannot be identified. When we can identify an object as a flying spaceship from Mars it is no longer a UFO.
We have some nice footage of a meteor in Russia [0] that would have been a UFO in previous time.
Something to keep in mind is that cell phone video cameras are relatively limited in what they can capture with good fidelity from far away. Smartphone lenses are designed around taking photos of people and landscapes, not distant moving objects. Not that they can’t, mind you, but if you’ve ever tried to record video of a plane in the sky it tends to look small and barely visible.
It’s kind of like taking a photo of the moon, even when it looks huge in the sky it ends up being a tiny dot in the photograph.
I like how they're also hacking the biological visual system of pilots, ghost in the shell style...I didn't know the pilots had prosthetic replacements ;p ;) xx

Take a look at this:

Are you still going to say that's a satellite or ISS? :)
