Hi all, I just come across this story that I have not ever heard anything about, one thing I am aware of is the existens of “The Hum” but this is new to me, anybody up to comment on it, or maybe a report from somebody that has experienced it… Thanks > **[NASA confirms strange sounds emanating from the sky -- Sott.net](https://www.sott.net/article/297196-NASA-confirms-strange-sounds-emanating-from-the-sky)** > > There was no special celebration happening in town, yet the strange sound coming from the sky, which sounds similar to the echoes of trumpets, have been recorded by people all over the world.

As of now there are also a variety of debunking videos, easily found with a youtube search. What’s interesting is the title of the first article says “NASA confirms…” and quotes a “NASA spokesperson” but doesn’t have a link or a name. Googling the exact attributed quote only takes you to more references to the same article or include the same vague phrase about “NASA spokesperson.” In any case, the explanation (supposedly) offered by the spokesperson makes enough sense to me. I’ve heard wind noises in several areas, including Chicago, Philly, Miami, ATL that sound similar to those heard in some of the videos I’ve seen. ---

It’s the sound made by chem trails. ---

There is no doubt that there are things flying in the night sky (of Earthly origin) that no official will ever admit to. Scramjets for one. I doubt you really need to look further than some secret government project for an answer, which of course, they’d probably deny. ---

Somebody else got actual video of it. [This video is a good debunking and explanation of the scam ones.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVScTxRBHFY) But there are even better ones. Most of the videos are completely fake. ---

I looked into it a bit deeper and I would now compare the phenomena with the “crop circles”, I am sure that some are real but the majority of the people believe they are all fake. Would still like to hear from some “hear witness” what they heard. Anybody? ---
