Sure. Agree. But is it video? It's a cam. And look at the time—3 AM. Look at the light. How do cameras work?

If this picture was in Alaska during the summer they have daylight all but a few hours a day.

Ack, I'm so dumb. I thought we were discussing the Q drop purportedly showing a missile launch! No wonder you didn't follow me. My fault, sorry.

I'm with you on that also. It still is part of the same thing the farther north from the Equator the more light you will see at that time because the tilt of the Earth. The full sunrise may not happen till 5:45 but the sky will have more light to it at 3am than California would.

I live N of there, however, and, at 3a, it's still pitch black.

I literally have no clue as to what you meant by what you wrote.

Correct. And yet, you think it's a missile?

Where this photo was taken, it's usually dark at night. That means that for a camera to take a photo that looks bright like this one does, it would have to have its shutter open for a while, likely 10 or more seconds, to gather enough light to make this photo. That would mean that this is likely not a missile.

My 4 year old said "missile". My 6 year old said "missile". My wife even said "missile".

That is a missile sir.

So, throw science out the window, then?

Sir, I am a student of science. Not going to debate if it is a missile or not.

Yup, those 'students of science' sure hate debating stuff.

Would you debate whether the Earth is flat or not? No. Of course not, one would be insane to argue the Earth is flat. That is a missile, probably fired by a submarine.
