“Further investigation revealed that a large commercial jet was flying in that area around the time that the photos and video were taken, it said, adding,”The aircraft was contacted and reported normal flight operations on its way to JFK airport in New York.”
“Troopers believe that the photos and videos showed a contrail from the commercial jet combined with the rising sun which together caused the unique atmospheric sight,” the state troopers said in a statement.
However, social media continued to come out with more theories as some said it was a “top secret Russian weapon” flying above.
