"Spotted over Iran." I've done a little contrast work and stabilization to help with seeing what's going on.. there appears to be three dark areas behind the lights. This footage annoys me as its been through heavy re-encoding, so.. much of the original data is lost. typically done to... hide shenanigans. Can't say with any certainty if this is real or not. certainly interesting and entertaining however.show more

Put Claude to work on its analysis of the footage.. here's its forensic report.

Let's see how close we can get to the original?: ​«آیا امکان دارد ویدیوهای خام و اصلی ای رویداد را جهت بررسی و تحلیل ارائه دهید؟»

The highly advanced race of aliens who mastered post quantum physics are adding LED strips and disco balls to their space-time folding spacecraft. For sure bro. You doing okay?

There is another video angle taken from a moving car by a different person. This is real imo.The person who posted this video on X has also posted what he saw with his eyes.

Any thoughts on size and or altitude?

Don't hurt yourself straining for answers

Despite people saying "LED kites" I'm sure that lighted kites are highly frowned upon during wartime strikes. Or flying LED drones.

I was waiting for your take on it lol. There's been a sudden flood of these up close vids, but hard to know which ones are genuine.

It's a drone, dressed up to fool people. Not hard to do at all!

@Grok it looks like a frame holding LEDs attached to 3 or more balloons

Yesterday someone published a post with something almost identical, but in Colombia, I think. Not the same video though. Unfortunately I cannot find it now.

Was plain as day to me without the contrast

FYI It’s one of the United States aircrafts. The president is going to set off a nuclear weapon. over Iran. Very sad. Sending prayers to the people of Iran.

@grok, where did this video first appear?

Drone formation.

It's the NHI party tour bus

The timing of it is suspicious

The 3 dark areas are plasma clouds where they redirected the excess plasma that was being generated. If you look closely at the middle of this linear configuration of orbs, you’ll also see a weird grayish almost formless plasma cloud, too. That’s the by-product of the orbs closest to the middle.

*telepathically, obviously* ' < crewmate +|~~ >, please do not pass power to the the human amusement systems while we attempt to hover unnoticed. the systems have embedded rainbow lights and their purpose is uncertain...oh actually that looks pretty fun...'

AI Overview "No, flying model airplanes and hobby drones is strictly prohibited and heavily criminalized in Tehran right now. Flying LED kites or any glowing objects in Tehran right now is extremely dangerous and heavily restricteddue to tense security conditions."

I now believe that asking ai to analyse video footage or photos to see if its ai generated is pointless. I've seen ai categorically claim its not ai. But ai will also assess based on the commentary, title and question. If everyones comments claim something is ai g - it'll agree

did an analysis with astra, this thing appeared in 2 other videos from argentina, its the same "craft" but it appears as though there is no physical body, its just the lights, so strange.

a flying jellyfish!

Sad to say it, but it looks exactly like that meme where the guy is putting out balloons with Christmas lights on

Try to contact the original uploader for the footage from the phone? Also ask for other recordings that she is aware of from other people that saw it? Here is the original uploader:

Not Iran. - @Grok — This photo was taken at night on a highway in Saudi Arabia, most likely on an approach road toward Mecca (Makkah). The green rectangular guide sign with white Arabic text and a straight-ahead arrow is the standard Saudi style used for major destinations. The wording points toward Makkah / Al-Haram (the Grand Mosque area). The tall post with red-and-white reflective striping is also typical of Saudi highway signage. Exact kilometer marker or interchange can’t be read from the photo, but signs like this are common on the Jeddah–Makkah highway and other roads leading into the holy city.

Regardless, nothing of interest will have lights like Vegas.

Kite and leds, look out for the good stuff that might come from there, though

@grok analyze this and let everyone know what it is
