UFO in Rocky Mountain National Park:

My friend posted this on Facebook. It seems to have happened yesterday. He did not receive his image, and the image that was sent to him lost pixels when transferring from Apple to Android. But others were there and presumably got the photos. I would like to see other frames and/or videos.

Original news

Anyone in Rocky Mountain National Park get a better shot of this?

My friend posted this on Facebook. Happened yesterday I believe. He didn't get a picture of it and the image he was sent lost pixels in the Apple to Android transfer. But others were there and supposedly got pictures. Would love to see other shots and/or videos.

Hypotheses

List of versions containing features matching the eyewitness descriptions or material evidence

Illusions associated with the refraction and reflection of light

Reflection is a physical process of interaction of waves or particles with the surface, changing the direction of the wave front at the boundary of two media with different properties, in which the wave front returns into the medium from which it came. The reflection may be specular (that is, such as is observed when using a mirror) or diffuse (in this case, the reflection is not saved the path of the rays from the object, but only the energy component of the luminous flux) depending on the nature of the surface.

Objects with height

With the right perspective, survey boats and other similar objects from a significant distance (e.g., from the airplane), as in the photo and the video can be represented as shooting celestial objects. Especially good the picture is completed in the frame of the cloud.

So it could be night shots of glowing lights and their clusters - i.e., for example, fishing boats.

Investigation

Versions testing, their confirmation or refutation. Additional information, notes during the study of materials

Based on the appearance, it may be a reflection of sunlight from a solar power plant or a large body of water. There are quite a few large lakes in that area.

 

In the comments, the author of the publication parksj1 writes that he found that these peaks are located to the east and southeast of the place where this photo was taken:

Estes Lake is in that direction. I think it might be the reflection of the sun from that lake.
