On April 6, 2020, a man who came to Tomsk from a neighboring region on a business trip and being near the Izumrudny shopping center drew attention to three objects that appeared in the sky and lined up in a triangular formation. One of the objects blinked, the other two emitted a uniform glow.
The video, of course, is interesting, but its authenticity is questionable.
First, it's too short. An eyewitness who saw such an anomaly in the sky would logically take more than 15 seconds of video.
Secondly, I never managed to find the original video posted by the eyewitness himself. There are only many copies of it on the network, which he sent to different publications.
In my opinion, this video aims to discredit the term UFO in the light of recent events, when large groups of UFOs openly appeared over large cities in different parts of the world.
This belief is also fueled by the amazing activity of the leading media outlets posting this video with sensational headlines. Including TASS and RIA Novosti, VGTRK Tomsk and other large platforms.
The video is most likely a specially created fake in order to extinguish people's interest in the UFO subject due to the recent events with the appearance of entire UFO armadas in the solar system and over the major cities of the Earth.
I don't even know what to be more surprised at - the incredible activity in the spread of fake by the leading media or the comments of "scientists":
Promotional video:
“The problem is that it’s hard to say anything reliably from this video. We can only assume that it could have been … It is possible that this is a montage, but perhaps these are some objects that reflected the sun. It could be a quadcopter, but we don't hear the sound. If these were some kind of balls or flashlights, then they could move synchronously under the influence of the wind,”- Tatyana Galushina, Associate Professor of the Department of Astronomy and Space Geodesy, Faculty of Physics, Tomsk State University (TSU).
“Of course, this is not a UFO. Since the phenomenon was filmed with the phone, it automatically focused on the building, and not on the objects themselves. They turned out to be blurry, so we cannot say with certainty that they were exactly round. I think the video is an ordinary polyethylene package or balloons. Why did they end up so high? Most likely, we are seeing a so-called thermal. This is an updraft of air that can form in sunny weather. It is capable of lifting objects to a rather high height,”commented Olga Tikhomirova, scientific secretary of the Tomsk Institute of Atmospheric Optics, SB RAS.
Gentlemen, this is just ridiculous …
