    Yes, but I don't think that a flare can explain the variety of colors so prominently visible at such a distance, in broad daylight.

    That's clearly a pigeon that got attacked by a kindergarten class and they painted it.

    Yep of course, because governments and the military NEVER carry out tests in secret. How stupid people are who believe governments have secrets!

    ps: and a flare visible at that distance is a really big mothaf****, I'd say it's some sort of meteorological phenomena.

    Swamp Gas Reflecting off a Weather Satelite on Pluto or something because Pluto is mad we no longer consider it a continent.

    I don't know what the fuck I just read but it made me laugh.

    Weather satellites on the dwarf planet pluto are angry because we no longer see it as a continent?

    So they are reflecting swamp gas at us, yes.

    If there are any airforce bases along that route then it's most probably the flare they fire from the ATC towers.

    This is a picture I took in Washington D.C.

    Everybody denies it! They've even rebuilt the White House overnight.

    Oh wow, you deserve a cookie for making me laugh.

    OT: I'm guessing it's one of those iridescent clouds. I highly doubt it's a flare.

    Flare, cloud or sun-ray projected on that cloud alone. Chemical cloud, a regular plane in clouds or the sun was behind the cloud.

    A parachute flare is a good guess but I do not think so. it was "burning" way too long for a flare, even a parachute one, I have also seen hundreds of flares of all kinds launched during my career, none matched what I saw. The video does not really show it, but there was a rainbow of colours directly under the orange glow.

    You know what UFO stands for right? The thing I captured fits all 3 categories. It was flying, I could not identify it and it was definitely an object. Think about things before mocking people.

    Happy to help. I'm just jealous I couldn't see it myself, it's been a while.

    OP has been told what it most likely was and there's too much trolling and spam in here for this to continue in any constructive direction.
