Supernatural or Other Easily Explainable Phenomena?

Thanks for sharing!
There are movies of those type of objects, and I am intrigued by them.
The kettle, I might attribute to a electrical short or a faulty button without being there.
The heavy footsteps fall in line with reported ghostly activity.
I wonder if the neighbors were standing there looking at the window as it was being banged on?

The stories I have related do not involve seeing or hearing a physical event as it happens, just observing a result that seems illogical, knots that unite themselves, lost items that appear in plain sight. I realize skeptics would attribute this to the fault of the observer, misremembering, or not being observant, or a physical effect that can be attributed to something other than supernatural.

A good example for myself is the jacuzzis bathtub water jet that was screwed into a fitting in our old tub, that when we would return from trips, would often be discovered unscrewed, and laying in the tub. I would screw it back into place until it was snug. We never ran the water pump, other than keeping the bathtub plumbing cleaned out, and when taking a bath, I frequently checked it to see it it was getting lose, which it never was. But it was only after returning from a trip that it would be discovered laying in the tub. I just can’t explain it other than to call it a mystery.

 

Mostly I think the video does a great job of offering up perspective as to where we reside in the Universe and just how insignificant we are, while possibly instilling a sense of wonder at our existence or reminding us of it. That has to open our eyes just a little. This does not even qualify as supernatural, and it is more than mind boggling.

​

When I look at Galaxy images, I do feel wonder. And here we are, in the middle of almost unimaginable splendor, stuck on our little grain of sand, that is like a jewel, and that we hardly know how to care for, much less avoiding blowing it up in our selfish existence.

It makes me want to take a big journey, which the optimist in me can’t rule out happening at the end of our mortal lives. Movies have tried to portray such a journey in different contexts. It just seems like a pity we are in the middle of all of this, yet we can only observe it through a telescope and we spend most of our existence, in our own little rat race, seemingly oblivious to what we are in the middle of.

WASHINGTON — The strange objects, one of them like a spinning top moving against the wind, appeared almost daily from the summer of 2014 to March 2015, high in the skies over the East Coast. Navy pilots reported to their superiors that the objects had no visible engine or infrared exhaust plumes, but that they could reach 30,000 feet and hypersonic speeds.

“These things would be out there all day,” said Lt. Ryan Graves, an F/A-18 Super Hornet pilot who has been with the Navy for 10 years, and who reported his sightings to the Pentagon and Congress. “Keeping an aircraft in the air requires a significant amount of energy. With the speeds we observed, 12 hours in the air is 11 hours longer than we’d expect.”
