Multiple witnesses at a Chilean beach captured footage of a puzzling UFO that pulsated as it hovered in the sky over the water. The strange sighting reportedly occurred on Saturday, March 22nd in the coastal city of Antofagasta. As beachgoers were enjoying the sunset that evening, many found their attention drawn to a flashing cylindrical object on the horizon. The scene was weird enough that multiple people felt compelled to film the peculiar illumination with the footage (collection featured below) subsequently spreading like wildfire on social media in Chile and, as one might imagine, spawning all manner of speculation.
Setting aside the extraterrestrial hypothesis, some have posited that the UFO (seen isolated above) may have been a drone. The most frequent explanation put forward by skeptical observers is that the light was from a nearby airport. However, this scenario has been dismissed by others who insisted that it would not have been visible from that area of Antofagasta. Additionally were the pulsating object simply an illumination from across the way, one has to wonder why so many different people decided to film the curiosity at around the same time that Saturday evening.
