Witness account

Narrative

Spearhead-shaped object caught on camera by [u/kopperxl](u/kopperxl) over Karlsruhe, Germany on Oct 1, 2023 at 7pm local time. The video from 00:12 to 00:16 shows the object staying in one place and rotating around a vertical axis. An impossible maneuver for a delta-winged drone with rear propulsion. It also seems unlikely that the object is a balloon or a kite. It reminds me of a similar dark, pointed object depicted in Hans Glaser’s famous 1561 Nuremberg woodcut. submitted by /u/Johne1618
