Recently a highly unusual video came to the world’s attention, a video that appears to have captured two UFO’s going into battle at the edge of space. A skirmish that results in one UFO returning home and only the debris field remaining of the other.

The video was captured by armature astronomer Elijah Prychodzko, with his trusty iPhone attached to a telescope Elijah hit record after noticing something unrecognized in the sky. Shot on December 20, around 5 p.m. in Sacramento Elijah immediately knew he had captured something bizarre.

First aired by CBS 13 the footage appears to show two different sized objects at extremely high altitude.  In the video Elijah can be heard to say “Oh my God, it just blew up. Something blew up”.

“As soon as I put the camera to the telescope it just blew up and I didn’t know what to say, I saw something that I’d never seen before. I saw another object orbiting this — whatever it was up there, and I’ve never seen anything like that before,” said Elijah

He thought it was a little strange so he put his phone down, called his nephew, and then returned to shoot a second video clip.

Initially after capturing the videos Elijah attempted to sell the content on Craigslist, thankfully he was never able to lock in a deal and would eventually release the video to the public.

Making use of Facebook Elijah contacted and forwarded his video to CBS Good Day Sacramento’s Cody Stark. “It’s his camera phone shot through a telescope lens, so we zoomed in and slowed it down. It certainly looks suspiciously like an explosion,” Stark said during the news report.

Stark then sent the video to Stephen P. Maran, author of Astronomy For Dummies. Dr. Maran responded by saying he didn’t recognize the “explosion” as a known astronomical phenomenon. “My personal opinion is that it is not an astronomical event,” he wrote.

Although the strangest comment regarding the video came from a Vatican expert who said it could have been some kind of light refraction, an answer expected of the scientific community. An answer that ignores the footage and tries to explain the explosion alone.

What has Elijah captured with his iPhone? Are UFO’s doing battle in the Earth’s upper atmosphere?

What we know for sure is that something blew up in the skies over Sacramento, determining if it were battling satellites or waring UFO’s will require further investigation.
