NEW YORK (CBS 2) — Did you see it? Chopper 2 HD sure did.

It was a bizarre, glowing red-hot streak in the sky — right at sunset Wednesday — moving briskly behind the Manhattan skyline.

CBS 2 reached out to a top astronomer who looked at the video. He said it looks beautiful, but that is was like nothing more than what’s known as a “contrail” — condensation from a commercial or military jet.

The aliens, apparently, are not coming.

The sighting came one day after a mysterious condensation trail was spotted off the coast of California. Speculation over the object that caused it ranged from a fired missile to a contrail from a commercial airliner.

Most experts now believe an airplane caused that vapor trail.

Is it just me, or is this moving a bit faster than a commercial airliner or military jet?

It’s hard to judge speeds because the video was shot from a moving helicopter.

Yup, launched from CA across NY on to Tehran. Its one of those Slowpoke missiles designed to look like a jet contrail. Wait till Ahmanutjob sees it coming right towards him. Popcorn time.

Most experts now believe an airplane caused that vapor trail.

If they are experts, why can't they tell us what plane(s) might have been traversing the area at the time? Show us some data. Anything.
