A strange cloud appeared over Alaska, causing some to panic. We answer the question.

Photos with a strange "cloud" over a mountain in Alaska (USA), caused a lot of panic rumors: from the fall of a UFO to the attack of a "secret Russian weapon". 

The rumors so alarmed social networks that the Alaska military and the Rescue Coordination Center conducted an investigation and announced that everything was not so terrible. However, this explanation did not satisfy everyone. A bizarre worm-like cloud was spotted over Lazy Mountain last Thursday (April, 7, 2022) and the images quickly went viral on social networks, attracting the attention of supporters of conspiracy theories of all stripes.

First of all, the local authorities checked whether there had been a plane crash and found that no missing planes or helicopters, including military ones, had been reported in the area. Other hypotheses included a satellite falling from space, a meteorite impact, or a Russian rocket. Further investigation revealed that shortly before the discovery of a strange cloud, a large commercial plane flew over the mountain en route to JFK Airport in New York.

They contacted the plane, found that everything was fine with it and it had no technical problems. Thus, in the end, the authorities had only one logical version, which they put forward as an explanation - the strange cloud was allegedly just an inversion trace from that commercial aircraft.

The bizarre appearance of this trace was explained by the fact that "there was a combination of an inversion trace and the rising sun."

Many netizens called this explanation complete nonsense and an attempt to simply hide another fact of the UFO crash. And the fact that the military was involved in the investigation added plausibility to this theory.

What fell in Alaska in 2022. The answer to the question according to UFO-AC Research group

Let's think logically. The object was noticed by the military, not on radar, but visually. If it was an airplane, then it is quite obvious that they would know that commercial air transport is flying, and there is absolutely no point in worrying. But this is not the case. So from the earthly versions of the origin, we have three main theories.

1. The object was not visible on the radar, because it was a missile that had serious protection against detection of an anti-aircraft missile system. And in order not to be disgraced, the idea of public publicity and providing false information about the contrail and the plane was put forward. By the way, look at the trail from the Chelyabinsk meteorite. Does it remind you of anything?
   
2. Crew Dragon. Although the official statement claimed that the pictures were released on April 7th, their source was not mentioned. Instead, they were published in the Daily Mail on April 9th, which is when we first noticed them. It is worth noting that Crew Dragon was launched during this period. Some people believe that the video from the ISS was actually filmed on Earth, and there are several videos supporting this theory. However, we will not analyze the truthfulness or fallacy of this claim in detail in this article, as both sides have presented compelling arguments. According to this theory, presentation rockets follow a parabolic trajectory as they are not intended to reach space, and eventually fall to a safe location. This is likely the reason why the missile was not detected on radar.
3. Meteorite version. However, it is important to note that the likelihood of a catastrophic collision is low. Our astronomers struggle to track the fall of meteorites, both the mythical ones that supposedly threaten Earth every year and the real ones that actually make impact. This may be the case.
