Shape Shifting UFO over Miami, Fl - Nov 23, 2013

The following footage was taken on Nov 7, 2013. Location: Miami Fl. This is an amazing capture of a round pill shape/very reflective object and its movement against the wind.

Author's explanation:

I am using the label UFO as a reflection of my inability to identify some objects.

We try to be as precise as we can when we make some claims: When we use the label UFO is because we have been unable to identify the object of interest, we always try to look for the standard objects in the sky: man made airplanes/drones, birds, balloons, astronomical objects like the Moon, Venus that are usually the only ones visible in daylight and sometimes satellites like the ISS, but these are very hard to spot in daylight.

The more difficult of the standard objects to identify are the balloons because they come in very, very different shapes and materials: but looking to its movement relative to the wind and/or its configuration and movement with high zooming lens you can almost always get an identification.

Using a modified security camera LG LCB5100 (internal cut-off IR filter removed), and computar motorized zoom lens 16-160mm. A 850nm IR filter is in front of this camera CCD. This LG camera is being used as "finderscope/spotter" for a second PC165DNR camera with 1000mm focal length Meade 114mm reflector scope and 950nm pass IR filter, centering an object of interest in the LG cam FOV will make that object visible on the Celestron FOV that have a lot more magnification, this way is easier to get video closeups of some very rare objects. Both cameras are on top of a PTZ base remotely controlled. Jeremy Thomas
